when we were small

当我们还是孩子时，以上的玩具，卡通片，食物，总让我们渡过许多美好的时光。现在回想起来，总是令人怀念。

女人

杂志里有一篇文字，是这样写的：

漂亮的女人不下厨，
下厨的女人不温柔，
温柔的女人没主见，
有主见的的没女人味，
有女人味的乱花钱，
不花钱的不时尚，
时尚的令人不放心，
放心的女人没法看。

各位姐姐妹妹，你同意吗？

The Race Relation Act

51 years of independence and the Malaysians pride themselves for able to live together in peace and harmony despite the difference in race, religion and culture. After the 'squatters' comment by Ahmad Ismail, ministers and NGOs mooted for the idea for having a Race Relation Act. I can't help but wondering whether such proposal is only a knee-jerk reaction to something bad that has been uttered by 'someone'? If it is true, it is utmost unfortunate.

For the look of things, everything that happen in this country is drawn along racial lines. From political parties to schools. Any initiative to promote unity and diversity among the people is a good one. However, such law should not be manipulated and abused. The law should call for equal treatment for all law-abiding citizens and to ensure no discrimination of any sort. Our politicians should stop playing the race card just to gain political support.

3 year suspension

Ahmad Ismail was suspended from UMNO for having made THE provocative statements.

So, he was being punished. The question is, is it an adequate punishment?

He had insulted and humiliated the whole chinese community, and also throw the whole country into racial and political chaos. And all he gets is just a three year suspension??!! Shouldn't him be sacked from the party for the shame and damage he had done??!! And the most funny part is he is given a chance to appeal so there is a possibility that he got his punishment to be reduced to 3 months or even less.

It is disappointing when the UMNO supreme council has not even directed that idiot to apologize to the chinese community. Even the issue of tearing Tan Sri Koh's phone was not address by the counsil. This is totally unacceptable. This incident has took place and it has taited UMNO's and also the BN's reputation.

When the UMNO leader declared that the 'penumpang' statement has nothing to do with the party and it was totally Ahmad's personal opinion, why was the UMNO Secretary General TengKU Adnan attending the immediate press-conference held by Ahmad?? This actually convey a message that the statement was not just a personal bravodo by Ahmad but has also gain strong and powerful backing up by UMNO.

It is obvious that this 'stern' action was totally not stern... ... I'm sad for the nation... ....

Young lawyer without the approriate attire

The News Straits Times recently reported that The Court of Appeal Judge Datuk Gopal Sri Ram actually hammered a young lawyer for not wearing the robe and bib when making an appearance in the Court of Appeal.

©New Straits Times (Used by permission) Sri Ram took the Bar Council to task for "not doing anything' to address falling standards and respect for the court PUTRAJAYA: No robe, no talk. This, in a nutshell, was the message that Court of Appeal judge Datuk Gopal Sri Ram had for a young lawyer yesterday who appeared before a panel of judges without the required apparel. He initially offered the lawyer , called to the bar three months ago, a hint by saying "I can't hear you.' When the lawyer, who was also not wearing a bib around her neck, did not take the bait but continued addressing the court, Sri Ram told her that she was not suitably attired. The judge then asked her whether she was told that it was fundamental for a lawyer to be fully attired before appearing in court. To this, the lawyer, who had come to court to withdraw an appeal in a civil case, replied that she did not know about the requirement as she had not been told about it. On hearing this, Sri Ram took the Bar Council to task for "not doing anything' to address falling standards and respect for the court. He also criticised the legal profession for the deterioration in standards. Sri Ram said the legal firm which employed the lawyer and her master during her pupillage should also be held equally responsible. He said he had instructed a senior assistant registrar to lodge a complaint with the Advocates and Solicitors Disciplinary Board against her employer, and her master. The court later instructed another lawyer to take over her matter. Also sitting with Sri Ram were Datuk Vincent Ng and Datuk Sulaiman Daud.

Well, i know i should be sympathetic for the young lawyer as she was being torn to bits by Datuk Gopal. But, initially i feel that her attitude was unacceptable. Whoever is in the legal profession knows that they must wear a robe and a bib when appearing in the High Court/the Superior Courts for a open court matter.Eventhough is just to withdraw an appeal. This is fundamental. All right, assuming that she really don't know about the requirement, won't she felt awkward when she appeared in the court house when every single person at the bar table is fully attired??!!

(I've replaced the her name to 'the lawyer' and also deleted the firm's name)

The fall of a rising star

Dr Chua, within 24 hours after admitting that he was the man in the sex video tape, quit all his posts.

His action has definately caused his family to suffer in grieve, and for he himself, it's a political suicide. However, i must offer my respect for the former health minister for having the guts to admit and apology for making such a great mistake. Knowing the consequences that his political career will be doomed forever, he owns up to it. This has certainly set a good example to other Y.B.s: to admit that you have done wrong, do not tell lies coz the rakyat ain stupid.

Well, i respect his courage to admit his mistakes, does not mean that i acknowledge his action. A man, being a father and a HUSBAND, must remain faithful and loyal to your family. A nation leader, must be aware that you are elected by the rakyat and you are there to serve the rakyat and set a good example for a rakyat. That tape, is an infringment to privacy; but, that's also part of the political game. So, beware, don't be naugthy; once you get caught, goodbye forever. Well, unless you are some 'thick-skin' people...
