The Degree of Contention on Political Issue

22 April, 2008 (19:09) | point out

I find it downright perplexing to see the chasm of a difference between the political issues that have been in the limelight. Take for instance the recent harping by certain parties on the Pig Farm Project issue in Selangor vs. the Malaysian "Angkasawan" program .
On one hand we have a R&D cum glorified tourist [...]

18 April, 2008 (13:01) | point out

Finally!!! Thank god JPJ is finally making a concentrated effort in regards to the abuse of windscreen tints and most especially xenon headlights (i.e. HID Lamps) by Malaysian drivers. More and more cars on the road nowadays have xenon headlights and these headlight are a pain in the ass for the other drivers.

Imposing Syariah Law Onto The Non-Muslims

3 April, 2008 (16:54) | Freedom of Religion, Op-ED

It should be exactly just like it says in the picture above and exactly as it is enshrined in the Malaysian Constitution under Article 11 - Freedom of Religion whereby it is stated that Every person has the right to profess and practice his religion and, subject to Clause (4), to propagate it.
Therefore it is [...]

To Apologise Or Not To Apologise

25 March, 2008 (23:22) | Op-ED

 
Yesterday new Law Minister Zaid Ibrahim made his statement that the Malaysian government should make an official apology for the debacle of the sacking of then Lord President Tun Salleh Abas which sparked the judicial crisis in 1988.

An Apt Summary for the Elections

13 March, 2008 (19:26) | Op-ED

I couldn’t have summed it all up any better myself. From highlighting the glaring faults of the current Election Commissions’ voter list to commentary on the chance the Opposition line has been handed - all in all this is what I call a good news segment piece.

9 March, 2008 (03:37) | Politics, point out

A far cry from the sterling sweep Barisan National obtained in the 2004 elections, the 2008 or 12th General Election has seen a unmistakably clear sign from the rakyat - resulting in the fall of the Barisan National coalition from it’s once lofty heights. The time for change is now, the wind of change is [...]

Firstly allow me to state my opinion that PJ Utara MP Chew Mei Fun has proven too be a caring MP for the people of her constituency. Sure as the fact that she has been label the Drain & Pothole minister the fact does speak for itself as the residents of PJU know they can [...]

PKR’s Anwar Speak on Issues Faced Under BN Rule

29 February, 2008 (18:22) | point out

I was fortunate to be directed by an acquaintance of mine to this online video of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) leader Anwar Ibrahim giving his ceramah or talk to the public at Bandar Tun Razak.
It’s a slightly lengthy video, about 25 minutes or so, but sufficiently highlights the main points of PKR for this election [...]

Mykad Application Woes

23 February, 2008 (15:48) | Op-ED, point out

8 days ago, I made a trip to the PJ JPN office in order to change my Mykad - due to my new look and also because the smart chip was already rusting. On the whole I found the process to be rather efficient and within 30 minutes I was already done.
My only issue at [...]

Political Promises

20 February, 2008 (16:19) | Op-ED

As general election fever continues to expend, I find myself once again recollecting on the “Political Promises” that our local politicians seems to expand on with great gusto. The sad fact is that once the dust settles, among the promises made to us joe rakyat in favor for our votes - a vast majority of [...]
