Something from the past

It is always around this time of the year that my Christmas preparations get underway, and it begins with the spring cleaning of my office as I operate from the home.  While going through some of the items in the boxes, I was so delighted to have found my senior scout epaulette, an old photo of me and my troop mates and a lapel which I used to wear in 1965 during my attachment with the 36th KL of the Cochrane Road Secondary School.  Forty nine years later, what a sight to behold, and to think they have been lost due to my moving my domicile six times since that year.

Just two human beings coming together

Forget about one having a sordid past and the other, a well known young politician.  Just two human beings coming together to know each other.

Bumi Melayu? Never heard of it.

Bumi melayu?  Quite honestly I didn't know that this planet earth belongs to them.  What a laugh. Christopher Columbus founded the new world, but had never claimed that the Americas belonged to Spain.  The Americans were the first to land on the moon and yet the Americans did not claim the moon belongs to them.  I wonder what great discoveries have these Malays (in the pictures above) made to warrant the claim that earth belongs to them.  They are so delusional.

How much more can we tighten our belt?

Many of my friends I have spoken to, that in view of the price hike in petrol and diesel, we must adapt, change our lifestyle, be austere, cut the clothe according to our size, blah, blah, blah. Now what if a person has only one car to get by. Does he need to dump that old jalopy and opt for a bicycle? Forget about Starbucks, McDonalds or KFC, what if the person had been eating at the mamak stall (and I don't even mean a shop), does he need to cut back to eating plain biscuits and water? A person would have already cut back to eating two meals a day. Does he need to cut down to one? If a man is already married with four wives, does he need to divorce three to reduce it to one? What about those who could only afford a single storey terrace house. Does it mean, he would have to sell off the property to buy an attap house?

I feel this is the beginning of a long nightmare for many of us with those severely affected will be the low income earners, pensioners and senior citizens. What's the big deal about BR1M when they give it to you with one hand and rob you with the other?

We have already adapted from the many price hikes in the past. How much more can one adapt when we have nothing more to adapt to?

Best of luck, everyone.

DAP on the right track and UMNO Baru is sore

WHILE PAS AND PKR ARE STILL STRUGGLING WITH THEIR INTERNAL PROBLEMS, DAP APPEARS TO BE ON THE RIGHT TRACK ENGAGING THE MUSLIM YOUTHS. NOW, EAT YOUR HEART OUT NAJIB, MUHYIDDIN, IBRAHIM ALI, ABDULLAH ZAIK, ZULKIFLI NORDIN, TEE CHUAN SENG AND HASAN ALI.

The devout Muslim is covered in a veil, which only exposes her eyes. She penned a novel, titled Pelacur Kelas Pertama (First Class Prostitute), which raised eyebrows due to its erotic elements.

Among others, the book, purportedly based on a true life incident, is about marital sex abuse.
And now, the 22-year-old Universiti Selangor graduate is bound to raise the controversy bar a notch higher with her decision to join DAP.

In an interview with Malaysiakini today, Jamila Rahim, who writes under the pseudonym Melati Rahim, reveals her reasons for joining a party, whose detractors never tire of branding it as a threat to the position of Malays and Islam.

“If you look at the DAP constitution, it places humanism and human rights as its main thrusts.

“In Islam, humanism is one of the core factors. So DAP is closer to the concept of justice as prescribed by Islam. And Islam is my main principle in life,” she said.

Melati stressed that the humanism agenda pushed forth by DAP was crucial in dealing with people of various races and faiths.

Female Pilot Leads Airstrikes Against ISIS

FOX News can confirm that the first female pilot for the UAE served as the team leader in the U.S. led coalition airstrikes against ISIS in Syria.

Major Mariam Al Mansouri is the first woman to join the Emirati Air Force—a dream she has held since she was a teenager.  She graduated from the academy in 2008 and now serves as a squadron commander, piloting F-16 fighter jets.

Al Mansouri, 35, is the first woman from an Arab nation to fly a mission-- dropping bombs on Sunni terrorists.

The United States and five Arab allies, including Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Qatar, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates, launched a series of airstrikes against ISIS targets inside Syria.

Intern camps for the Muslims in the States?

I was just thinking, my two cents worth.  During the start of World War II, especially after the bombing of Pearl Harbour by the Japs, all Americans of Japanese descent were rounded up and sent to intern camps all over America, the largest one being in Wyoming.  The Americans could not be bothered whether these citizens were young, old, babies, the sick, women or children, they were rounded up and housed away in intern camps and it was noted that the number of people involved were between 110,000 to 120,000. Many Americans decry this act by President Franklin D Roosevelt as they could vouch that the Japanese were as loyal as any American could be since the majority were born and bred in the States. True enough, as the war dragged on, many youths from the camp volunteered to join the US Armed forces to fight the Japanese.

Fast forward to modern day.  Muslims have encroached into almost every aspect of the American way of life and many of them have blatantly and openly vow to destroy the very same country who provided them sanctuary.  If that is not bad, they made it clear that they would not follow the constitution of the United States but only that of the Quran.

Now which is worse, the Japanese Americans in the 40s or these Muslims in 2014.

The Americans should have started to build intern camps and have these people put away till the militant problem is solved.  Now that the US have launched a full air strike this morning, how sure are we that the radical cells in the States have not been activated to take revenge?
