I can't imagine what is going to happen to America for the coming 10 years.
Right now two states have been declared gay and lesbian states. The recent one is Connecticut.
The lawyers who banned this state from same sex marriage in year 2004, now cleared the state and allowed same sex marriage!!
Ergh!

What Happens Next?
After the victory of Obama, immediate effects take place.
Abortion bans lose. Ban on abortion defeated.
That's why i don't support Obama.
Abortion bans lose. Ban on abortion defeated.
That's why i don't support Obama.
Why Not Obama?
Well the election is finally over. And unfortunately, as predicted, Barack Obama did win the election.
From the beginning i have not supported Obama. Just by simple reasoning from his policies, you will know that his policies are not of God's policies.
We don't have to go too deep to understand how good or bad the candidates were. Just look at their policies.
There is no need to go into too many policies. Just by taking two would do.
1) Obama approves same sex marriage.
2) Obama approves abortion.
These two policies which i saw when he was running to be candidate against Hilary Clinton have got me set my eyes off Obama. These two policies are all against God's will! Not counting the liberal jurisdiction that Obama will implement if he is elected President, which i will further learn about. Just these two policies can suggest whether or not he is God's chosen one.
Now the Republican Party has been labelled as a party who has failed the Americans. But one thing i need to remind. I can say that their plans and policies for that great nation have been according to God's will.
There must be a reason why God chose Bush to be President, and President for two terms! Not many Presidents in the history of America have won two terms. One thing i am assured of, is that Bush has been a devout born-again Christian. Although there were mistakes that he has made, but who doesn't make mistakes.
But the most important thing in politics, in my opinion, is the spiritual level of one politician. We are not sure of whether Obama is a true Christian, which he claims. But there were many articles that suggest otherwise.
I hope i am all wrong about Obama. I really hope i am wrong. What i want to see is a strong America that trusts in the God Almighty, and to follow His ways.
But what has happened stays happened. We can't change the election results. But one thing we need to do, is to keep praying hard for the America.
I'm hoping that Obama will change to be a Godly President. I really hope, leaning to a slight chance, that he can change.

A Day to Decide
I wish i do not have to worry for the US Presidential election.
But i have no choice when the result now shows the otherwise of what i wish for.
I'm praying that John McCain will win the election. I'm hoping that the Americans will realize what they are in for.
From the beginning i have always rooted for McCain. Not a single moment i would go for Obama. Not a single moment.
Oh Lord please save your country America.
God save the president.

"I Will Not Be Corrupt"
The MCA Presidential election has been on quite a journey. Both Datuk Chua Jui Meng and Dato' Ong Tee Keat do have great manifestos to bring about change and brighter future for MCA, Chinese, and the nation.
Manifestos will still be manifestos and will remain a piece of trash talk if fruitfulness and productivity do not come about. We want to see results. What you claim you will do will only be seen after and if you do them.
But in this election, i brush off the manifestos aside. What we should look into is the character of potential presidents. In this case, i support Datuk Chua Jui Meng.
The main reason is he is a born again Christian. Back then while he was still a minister, he wasn't a strong Christian. Until he was sacked as Health Minister, he stopped politics for 3 years. During those 3 years, i thank God that God has shown Himself once again to him and has changed him. Right now he is a tough character. A person more like God, and has guaranteed to be God-fearing in his MCA leadership.
Nobody has ever done anything like him: Standing in front of the public, with his right hand lifted, and proclaim that "I will not be corrupt!".
Tell me, it takes a man and guts to swear that in front of the public. That is the leadership we long for in this 21th century. Someone who has integrity, courage, and most importantly, the fear of God.
We are lacking people like Datuk Chua. That is why i fully support him as MCA President. May God continue to bless his endeavours.

Carefree!
Well, petrol prices decreased to RM 2.20. Not good enough for us. But grateful for the action.
Other than that, i've just started by final semester of the degree course. I really thank God for seeing me through my 3 years of studies at higher education. Studying in university is not easy, yet it is a privilege and i thank God for that.
I've enjoyed my 3 years of studies. Great friends and great experiences have i gained. Now, the step forward is the hard part.
Seeing the global problem, especially in the financial sectors, worries and anxieties arise. What a way to graduate! Graduating when the world economy is slumping! What a way to enter to the market!
Countries are now very pessimistic about hiring fresh graduates. Even my wish to work in Singapore is shattered when hearing news that Singapore is now in recession and will soon retrench a lot of Malaysians.
What makes things worse is that analysts forecast that year 2009 will be a more terrible situation! My goodness! I'm entering the market in 2009 and they're telling us that 2009 will be worse.
But you know what, i have always had faith in God. It's not that i am a carefree person, not worrying and thinking about things, but my faith in the Lord allows me to be care-less.
It doesn't matter if the global economy and market are rolling downhills. But i have faith that my future doesn't depend on the economy nor the market, but my future depends on the Almighty God!
It's not the world that holds my hope, it is God that holds my hope. And the best thing is, my God holds the world!!
So seeing myself graduating, after a hard-fought 3-year journey in university, i am truly grateful to God. Really, it was His grace and mercy that enabled me to complete my journey. While i look forward to entering the market, i all the more look forward to seeing what God can do in times of global difficulties like what is happening now.
In God I Trust!

Lower The Prices!
Woohoo! I'm happy that the oil price is now USD 76 per barrel.
Does it mean we will get back our RM 2.00 per liter petrol? I remember it was still RM 2.00 per liter when the oil price was USD 78 per barrel.
What if the oil price drops again? Will we get cheaper petrol price? Or the government will still decrease the price by 10cents? If so, then we're being cheated!
We want our RM 2.00 per litre back! If not cheaper!

Outstanding Person
Hari Raya is a special festival for the Malays to celebrate new year. A celebration that should be filled with fun, bonding, and forgiveness among families, relatives, and friends.
The streets of KL are so clear and empty, and everywhere is filled with immigrants! Mostly Bangla people, Indons, and some ASEAN countries people.
Different leaders also conveyed their Hari Raya greetings. And most of them wish to see a more united Malaysia, without racial and cultural prejudices. People like Najib, Samy Vellu, Ka Ting, Anwar, Karpal Singh, and Guan Eng all wished a more united nation.
But this stuntman, not only conveyed a Hari Raya greeting, plus he added that the government abolish ISA and free the Hindrafs and Raja Petra.
This stuntman is Lim Kit Siang. Everybody wished good stuff, this fellow, even during Hari Raya, still wanted to talk about politics and free people.
I salute you lah bro. Not afraid of what people think of him - his annoyance and irritation.
Good job stuntman!

Where Is Our Promised 15cents?
Today the Government announced a decrease of 10cents for the fuel price.
Hooray for that!...but wait!
I remember the government promised that they would reduce 15cents if the crude oil price remains low, or at least maintain. I remember the promise was made when the crude oil price was USD 108 per barrel.
Since then, the crude oil price has been going down, and most of the time stayed below the 100 dollars mark. Right now, at this time, the crude oil price is USD 105.43 per barrel. It's now below the USD 108 mark!
So why did we only get 10cents decrease? And not the 15cents? I am grateful for the decrease, i am really.
But i am just disgusted that the government promised something and could not deliver. 5 cents can make alot of difference.

A Better Tomorrow?
Sorry for this post, but i have to say this, that i am sad to see many financial companies, especially in the U.S. are having trouble.
Lehman Brothers has filed for bankruptcy, while American International Group (AIG), also faces financial difficulties and is taken over by the Federal Reserves.
AIG is the Group that sponsored Manchester United. But looks like Man Utd are still doing business as usual, no negative effect on them.
But i want to say this, we are seeing one of the worst financial slumps in history. Lehman Brothers and AIG are both great and big financial and insurance companies respectively. AIG is the biggest insurance group in the world, and Lehman Brothers is one of the big investment institutions.
It's sad to see the downfall of the world economy. We as futures of this world, are to enter our future seeing all these results. It will somehow affect our confidence, making us wonder what worse thing can happen to our future, career, children, and children's careers.
Hope to see a better future. It sounds ironic, because we all know the world is going to get worse, with the end time nears. But, we can still hope, we can.

Arresting The Wrong People Perhaps?
It's funny how bias and how unfair this nation and the government has become.
Teresa Kok and Tan Hoon Cheng were alleged to have caused "racial disharmony".
The one thing i really don't understand is how can a reporter, Tan Hoon Cheng, who was merely reporting on the news of Datuk Ahmad Ismail, be arrested? I agree with that Datuk Ong Tee Keat said. If Tan Hoon Cheng is to be arrested, let alone the starter of the racial disharmony, Datuk Ahmad Ismail.
Shouldn't he be arrested all the more? Just because he is a Division Head, and one of UMNO's members, doesn't mean he could get away with any arrest. The police only said they would arrest him, but nothing has happened.
Teresa Kok is also the MP, also one of DAP's members, and she is arrested for causing racial conflict. With no concrete proof.
Actually, both Tan Hoon Cheng and Teresa Kok have not caused big disharmony in this nation. I wasn't even aware of what Tan Hoon Cheng was reporting. But one thing i know, the whole nation knows abt the racist remark by Datuk Ahmad Ismail, and yet he was not arrested under ISA!
Where art thou justice? Where art thou?
I shall not comment too much on this kind of issue. Or else some of you will see me in papers being arrested under ISA also. But i really can't hide my feelings, there is little, or no hope for this country. May God intervene.

911 Memorial
Can we have a 1-minute silence to remember those who lived great, and died 7 years ago.
*1 minute passed*
Imagine it was a normal day. You went to work, thinking it was just another work-loaded hectic day. You stepped into the office about 9am and started doing your work, or at least started off with a cup of coffee at the coffee room.
Out of a sudden, you heard a *BANG!*. The whole building was shaking. People screaming. And you looked down, you saw smoke coming out from the floors under you.
It was one fine day, 7 years ago, when people thought it was just another working day. Little did they know they would end up, well, either in hell or in heaven minutes after two planes crashed into the World Trade Center in New York, and also the Pentagon in Washington.
The wickedness of the Al-Qaeda stunned the whole world. That incident changed the world, at least it changed the America. People became more religious. Churches became packed a few Sundays after the incident. Suddenly everybody cherished and treasured their families and loved ones even more.
A total of 2998 people died in both the locations of attacks. Close to 6500 people got injured. A few more missing. But millions and millions of hearts were mourning.
These kinds of incidents will happen even more. When the end time draws nearer, wickedness of people grows stronger. What are you going to do about it? What happens if something like that happens to you? Are you ready to go?
Today we remember those who lost their loved ones, those who braved themselves to save thousands of lives, and especially those who witnessed the incidents and have yet to know the Saviour of the world.
"Even though i walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff,
they comfort me."
Psalm 23:4

Good News About Oil Price!
Good news!!
As of today, 9 September 2008, the price for oil is now USD 101.81 per barrel!
If this continues. our petrol price in Malaysia will become RM 2.40! Pray pray pray!
But surprisingly gold price is also dropping constantly, with current price at USD 782.
Funny, the demand for these two commodities are dropping. hmmmm

Rich getting richer, Poor getting poorer
You must have heard a saying that goes : the rich get richer, the poor get poorer.
It firstly applied to the business world, then society. And now, that phrase applies to the football world as well.
Take-overs are now becoming very popular in the world of football. Liverpool, Chelsea, Man Utd, and many more football clubs have very rich owners. Billionaires are now more interested at football take-overs.
The recent purchase of Manchester City by the Abu Dhabi United Group (ADUG) has made things worse in football. Billionaire owners are willing to spend millions and millions of Euros to buy players from around the world. The worse part is sometimes players don't worth that much.
The rich clubs like Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool, Real Madrid, can buy players they want. They are able to offer high prices for their targeted players. But with the addition of Manchester City, i'm assuming that things can become worse.
There will be inflation in football. Players will now demand more, in wages and transfer fees. The rich clubs can afford, but what about the poor clubs?
The market in football is now more expensive. The poor clubs cannot afford, because good players now are demanding higher. Even the clubs are demanding higher prices. With good players at the clubs, they have higher chances of winning competitions, getting advertisements, commercials, and many more. As a result, they are also getting money from there, which will make the club even richer.
So directly or indirectly, the rich are oppressing the poor. The rich clubs get richer, the poor clubs get poorer.
So, now football is also like that, what's next? I wonder....

Ungratefulness
The (racist) comment by Datuk Ahmad Ismail towards the non-Malays has created anger among the non-Malays. The worse part is, he doesn't want to apologize.
To me personally, i wasn't very much affected by it. These comments have been said over and over again by different groups of Malays.
Perhaps what they should do is to go back and look at history. It doesn't matter who step foot in this land first. But the effort poured out to protect this land is what that matters. By right this country belongs to the Orang Asli, who are now living in the forest. Malays are originally from Indonesia. So there shouldn't be matter of who came to Malaysia first.
Before our Independence, different races of Malay, Chinese, Indian, worked together to fight for independence for this country. Tunku Abdul Rahman, Tun Tan Cheng Lock, and Tun Sambathan, just to name a few.
Different races have worked hard, and have died to fight for independence. I don't think the Malays alone could have done it without the help of everyone is this country. So why boast about your so-called "ownership" of this land?
Today we can see that our nation is developing, fast and rapid. I dare to say that a large percentage of this development comes from the effort of Chinese and Indians. Look at the companies and you would know. Look at the top 10 richest man in Malaysia and you would know. How many Malays are in the list? Generally none!
Chinese and Indians have contributed to economical growth of this nation alot! Malaysia wouldn't be Malaysia today without everyone. If the government were to take away the special right (hak keistimewaan) of Malays, i guarantee you all the Malays would fall!
So there shouldn't be any racist remarks, or even thoughts. Malays should be grateful to have a peaceful and harmony nation to live in, despite the races. We need each other to build this nation. Without us, where would you be right now?

Why These Happen?
Wow, i almost couldn't recognize my blog. It was left stagnant for so long. But it's ok, i took time out of my revision for my finals to say something that is relevant, and applies to almost every aspect of the world issues.
Inflation is a hot topic these days. US economy downturn is a hot topic these days. National crises are definitely hot topics for most countries in the world.
Prices are going up. Food price, oil price, let's just say, everything is going up! Shortage of food and water in many countries is happening.
Professional economists and analysts are trying to put up theories of why all these are happening. Demand and supply is certainly one of the most concrete reasons behind these issues. People are coming out with reasons and complicated analysis of why are all these happening.
There's no need to put up complicated theories. There's only one reason behind : GREED
People just want more supplies for themselves. China is keeping all the oil for itself and thus increased the demand for it, that's why oil price is now USD 108 per barrel, as compared to USD 78 two years ago.
People are fighting to become the economic power and thus neglecting their environmental responsibilities of protecting this beautiful earth that God has created. As a result - climate change has caused disasters of bigger sizes, and the inability for crops to be produced effectively. Thus increasing the shortage of food, and food prices.
We can go on and on discussing the different issues happening today. Political instability, economical underperfomance, and social issues do not need complicated theories to explain why they happen.
The reason is GREED.
Inflation is a hot topic these days. US economy downturn is a hot topic these days. National crises are definitely hot topics for most countries in the world.
Prices are going up. Food price, oil price, let's just say, everything is going up! Shortage of food and water in many countries is happening.
Professional economists and analysts are trying to put up theories of why all these are happening. Demand and supply is certainly one of the most concrete reasons behind these issues. People are coming out with reasons and complicated analysis of why are all these happening.
There's no need to put up complicated theories. There's only one reason behind : GREED
People just want more supplies for themselves. China is keeping all the oil for itself and thus increased the demand for it, that's why oil price is now USD 108 per barrel, as compared to USD 78 two years ago.
People are fighting to become the economic power and thus neglecting their environmental responsibilities of protecting this beautiful earth that God has created. As a result - climate change has caused disasters of bigger sizes, and the inability for crops to be produced effectively. Thus increasing the shortage of food, and food prices.
We can go on and on discussing the different issues happening today. Political instability, economical underperfomance, and social issues do not need complicated theories to explain why they happen.

Day 1: Palace of the Golden Horses
Finally, i got to see Chelsea players face-to-face!
Here are the updates: Joel, Salby, and myself reached Palace of the Golden Horses at 6.30pm! We were so gung ho. Didn't want to lose out any nice strategic location to meet the players.
However, we were told that Chelsea players would arrive at 7.15pm. But they reached at 8pm!
No problem. In the end we really came! Everyone was busy taking pictures and getting autographs. Situation was exciting! However, we couldn't get any signature, because the players had to go straight up to their rooms. But...i've got some pictures! Here they go.

That evening was really exciting! The wait was long, but in the end it was worthwhile. My first time getting to see them face-to-face. There were a few more pictures taken, but not so clear. So didn't post up. These are the few quality ones. More than sufficient! hehe

3 more days!
It's down to 3 days! Chelsea will be playing in 3 days' time!
But to me, my day starts tomorrow. Where i will be greeting them and meeting them at their hotel. They would be staying at Palace of the Golden Horses for their tour in Malaysia.
For members of Chelsea Supporters Club, privileges are given to members to greet them at their hotel. Yes only for members.
That's the time where we try to get their autographs and pictures. Hopefully i'm able to get some personal pictures with some of my favourite players.
So to me, my day starts tomorrow! All the way until Tuesday. Looking forward to the best days of my year.
By the way, they will be touching down at 6.30pm at KLIA (Sunday). So if you are gung ho about Chelsea you can catch them at KLIA at 6.30pm on Sunday, which is actually today, since it has passed midnight. But i'm writing as if it's on Saturday night. haha

5 - Michael Essien
Michael Essien, one of Chelsea's midfield heroes!
The number 5 of Chelsea is, i would say, the best midfielder in the last season. Compared to Ballack and Lampard, or even Joe Cole, Essien stood out the best.
Scoring critical goals and providing precious chances, Essien is the midfield engine for now. He is also one of my Chelsea favourites. Can't wait to see him play.
From Ghana, he was bought from Lyon by Jose Mourinho, and has since been an important player to the Chelsea squad.
With only 5 feet 10 (that's about my height), he is stronger than a 6 foot giant. He has recently extended his contract to another 5 years with Chelsea. That shows how committed he is and how serious he is to stay with Chelsea.
May he continue to flourish!
On the other hand, this evening was the Chelsea Fan Club meeting and briefing. We were given the training pass, and the tickets. Free gifts were given such as posters, mugs and lucky draws. Joel Wong was lucky to be drawn to meet with two Chelsea players at Pavillion on Monday! Lucky boy!
But i have to say that the training pass is really nice. Very professional and classy. It will really make you feel special!

6 - Ricardo Carvalho
6 days more to go!
The number 6 in Chelsea is something special. It is my favourite defender's jersey number - Ricardo Carvalho.
Ricky Carvalho, Portugese, is one rock solid defender. He can read the game well, intercept like nobody's business, and eventhough he's only 6 foot, he can win headers in the air. Everytime with Ricky playing in defence, i feel very secured. I know with him playing, Chelsea will have a defence fortress with less chance for the opponents to break in.
He was a Champions League winner with FC Porto, under the guidance of charismatic coach Jose Mourinho. He was brought to Chelsea FC when Jose Mourinho came over to the Bridge. It is no wonder why Jose Mourinho now wants to take him to Inter Milan, because his defending performance is uncomparable.
I really love this guy. Although he is now 30 years old, but i really hope he stays in Chelsea FC until the end of his football career. I really can't find any better defender than this guy.

7-day Journey with Chelsea FC
This post will kick start my 7-day countdown to Chelsea vs Malaysia.
On the 29th of July 2008, Malaysian Football team will face one of the most feared football clubs in the world in a friendly match.
As a privileged member of the Chelsea Supporters Club of Malaysia, i am given the chance to be with them all 3 days in Malaysia. I will be greeting them at their hotel on Sunday when they arrive in Malaysia, that is where the meet-the-fans session will be. Monday will be their training day, which i also have the privilege to see them train, and to witness for myself how they can be the great Chelsea they are now, which obviously our Malaysian team cannot be. Learning from their training session would really benefit me.
Tuesday would be the friendly match at Shah Alam Stadium, starting at 8.45pm.
From today onwards, we will embark together the 7-day Chelsea journey, where i will post different posts about Chelsea, pictures that i will take with them (hopefully), and different activities. Stay tune!

Physical Changes
Some people get physical changes when they change their environment. For example, when you live in Malaysia long enough, and you suddenly move to another foreign country, especially in the West, you get fatter.
Some people grow fat because they are old enough to grow fat. When you reach a certain age your body grows......side ways!
This is a perfect example: (Right) My friend Benjamin before leaving for Dallas
NOW!
After 6 months in the States (The date is fake), look at his fats! He's lucky i couldn't get his whole body picture, otherwise it becomes more obvious!
When he comes back, which is soon, we will then see more clearly how fat he has grown.

Snippets
When i logged into my blog, i found some spider webs around. It has been left untouched for few days/weeks. I better keep in touch with my blog, otherwise i will forget what blogging is.
Just some snippets of some things.
1) I was watching the debate between Anwar and Shabery, and i thought Anwar did very well. Although he could make a promise to decrease the petrol price by at least 50cents if the Pakatan Rakyat forms the government, but talking is one thing, doing it is another. With the current oil price situation, i'm not sure he could do as much as he talks.
But i do credit him for giving strong arguments. Some things he said did make sense. How he presented himself convinced me why he is so charismatic to his supporters. Even i was almost attracted to support him. But i'm still holding back my support. Sometimes it's better to look at things independently without bias, this gives you good judgment and better understanding.
I also thought Dato' Shabery did well. Although he was clearly supporting the petrol price hike, but for a newbie like him, to debate against a giant politician like Anwar, is really not a walk in the park. However, being a consumer, and greatly affected by the price hike, i would still stand on the opinion that the price should not be increased so dramatically. Not easy for us to take it.
2) Two of nation's most influential people were detained. One is again, Dato Seri Anwar, who was "caught" to give his statement to the police, and another King Petra (LOL), who accused of Najib being the man behind the death of Altantuya. When you're in trouble, and you know who brought you trouble, the best thing is to shut their mouth. Raja Petra and Anwar were forced to shut their mouth for posting too much threat on the government. Anwar was on the verge of challenging the government to an election, and Raja Petra was on the verge of exposing more information about Altantuya. In the end both were brought into trouble.
3) One of the reasons why prices increase is the demand and supply. Petroleum is not a renewable resource, and the supply of it is getting less. However, the demand for petrol keeps increasing. Part of the increase of demand is the demand from China. China keeps the petroleum to themselves, with the hope that when petroleum really finishes, they have the advantage to sell to the world at a much higher price. This is smart in a way, but wicked in another way. It may not be wrong or illegal, but certainly not ethical. Right now we're already suffering, but China will bring more sufferings when we have to buy petrol from them at a much higher price.
Many things are happening, and what's worse is that, these things are not bringing benefit to people. But i really hope somebody will come out with the solution to give better life to us, probably inventing a car that runs on water!

Hoohaa and Hooray
In the first statutory declaration, Mr. Najib-accuser, Balasubramaniam said Najib was involved in the murder of Altantuya. The next day, Mr. Bala declared that his first statement was false. Come on, we're not small kids anymore Bala, how much did Najib pay you?
Sigh. I'm quite sick of the cashflow going around people's accounts in Malaysian politics. Maybe i should go accuse Najib too and get some pocket money from him, then i belanja you all makan ok?
Nah, screw the politics of Malaysia. Let's go to some fun part of the news.
Maya Karin is finally getting married!! Woohoo!! wait, why am i so happy? It's not me getting married to her.

Maya is one of Malaysia's most gorgeous celebrities.
However, while everybody is happy celebrating Maya's wedding, somebody is crying in the toilet. Him:
Oops, wrong picture. I mean, HIM! :
Maya and Khairy were once alleged to have some closed-door relationship. To a point it was a big breaking news in Malaysia. I'm sure he's having his saddest day in his life. He might probably stage a protest in Kampung Baru.
This guy is always ghairah, i mean semangat about protests on the streets. He loves to protest. But this time i think he probably won't do that to protest Maya's wedding, because his father-in-law always tells people that want to protest:
Polis your head la! Don't know how much you paid the policemen already, using money from the people! Idiot you!

I'm Disappointed
Politics is an evil place. People deceive you, set you up, and crush your political career with wickedness.
I've been troubled by the new sodomy case of Anwar Ibrahim. This week he was supposed to challenge the BN on a new post, and 4 BN members are jumping over to the opposition. Guess what? This week he was alleged of sodomy.
In politics, especially nowadays, people set you up. This is not the first case. Remember the Chua Soi Lek case? People set him up just to kill his political career.
I have two thoughts on the Anwar case:
Number 1:
It can be the work of the BN, especially the leaders of BN, who set up Anwar on this allegation. Knowing that Anwar is going to challenge them, they paid that UNITEN guy, Mohd Saiful to put Anwar back in trouble and in jail. With this, the most influential guy in the opposition is down.
Number 2:
It could also be the work of Anwar himself. I was thinking, how in the world could Wan Azizah get the pictures of the Mohd. Saiful posing with some ministers? It might be a photoshop, or some sort. Think about this, if Anwar set up himself, he was just merely getting sympathy from the people. With all blame put on the BN, the people would think that BN is such bad and wicked government. The hearts of the people would then turn to the opposition.
Right now everything is very unclear. Only those who did it know what is the real truth. Definitely God knows everything. I'm just disappointed at how and what our politics in Malaysia has turned into. Setting up people, accusing people, paying people to hurt other people. These things have been happening long before, and are happening everywhere. But i feel that it has become more serious, and it is now over the line.
Like i said previously, the politics in Malaysia can only go one way: WORSE!
Now it is shown. I'm expecting more cases to come up. I'm expecting worse things to happen.

Where Are We Heading?
The SAPP news have been on headlines these few days. This bunch of people have voiced their lack of confidence in the leadership of our dear(not) Prime Minister, which is also the BN head.
These people have lost their trust in the leadership of BN, but they did not lose trust in BN. It is clear that it's a leadership problem. Not the party.
But is our PM deaf? Or is he being stubborn and ego? Or...maybe his (idiotic) son-in-law keeps pressing him not the step down?
Nobody knows how our PM feels or thinks. Not even Najib. Politics in Malaysia has become worse. Everything is confidential. There is no transparency. Malaysian politics previously was already bad, but now it's worse. Transparency is not found in the Malaysian dictionary anymore.
But why is our PM not getting the message? People are losing trust in him. You too, are losing trust in him. But our PM has alot of self-confidence. He thinks he only needs to trust himself.
STEP DOWN!!
However, we can actually do a little bit of analysis of future Malaysian politics here. At current status, if our PM steps down, Najib is most likely to take the helm. Now, look further. If Najib steps down, who would take the helm of leadership? Many possibilities, such as Muhyiddin Yassin, Hishammuddin, or maybe the ever-hated Khairy. (Like i said from what we can see at current situation).
Evaluate yourself, are these men capable? Do you trust their character? Hishammuddin and Khairy are bad enough currently. Imagine if they are the Prime Ministers.
In the last days, the hearts of men will grow more evil. I do believe the leadership of Malaysia can go worse than before. This is the highest probability of direction that we are heading: WORSE.
Let's hope that God will raise people of caliber and integrity to lead Malaysia. He may not be Chinese nor Indian, but at least a man who is fair and just to all races.
P/S: Again, from the current point of view, Mukhriz Mahathir looks good for me. Maybe it's his father's stereotype in my mind. LOL

Fuel Price Hike Lesson
The fuel price hike has indeed taught me to be a better person. *WHAT*
I've learned to be more economical. I've learned not to waste. I've learned how to save more.
Previously i took for granted because i drive a diesel car. Although it doesn't consume as much as petrol, but the price was much cheaper than petrol. But now with the increase of RM 1 and just slightly RM 0.12 cheaper than petrol, i can't help but to save it.
Every bad thing can happen for a good reason. At least the fuel price hike has taught me something new, something that makes me better.
However, although i agree that the move to increase the fuel price is right, but i feel the timing is wrong. We're only a developing country. Our standard of living cannot match up to the cost of living now. Salaries are still considered quite low in Malaysia. Income per capita isn't that high either.
People are feeling the pain because some people can barely afford themselves, but the fuel price hike will add salt to their wound.
Like i said previously, it doesn't matter if fuel price had to be increased, but to the extent of RM 2.70 is too much.

Today Matters
You know, in life we always make alot of decisions. In a day we are stressed up because we make so many decisions, and sometimes these decisions don't help us.
Sometimes we create things to worry about. Sometimes we are stressed because we make decisions and think things that we shouldn't even think about. Some people always feel their days are miserable, and everyday is a bad day for them.
I was browsing through my uni's library shelves, and to my surprise there was a book written by John C. Maxwell. The book is called "Today Matters".
In that book, John described why many people do not succeed. The reason is people live their everyday lives in the wrong way. We sometimes bring pressure and stress upon ourselves, when we shouldn't even be worried about that.
He reshuffled our lives and came up with 12 things that we only have to decide in our entire lives. Only 12 things we need to think about, and he called it the Daily Dozen:
1) Attitude : Choose and display the right attitudes daily
2) Priorities : Determine and act on important priorities daily
3) Health : Know and follow healthy guidelines daily
4) Family : Communicate with and care for my family daily
5) Thinking : Practice and develop good thinking daily
6) Commitment : Make and keep proper commitments daily
7) Finances : Make and properly manage money daily
8) Faith : Deepen and live out my faith daily
9) Relationships : Initiate and invest in solid relationships daily
10) Generosity : Plan for and model generosity daily
11) Values : Embrace and practice good values daily
12) Growth : Seek and experience improvement daily
These are the only things that we should be thinking and doing. Our lives are categorized into these 12 categories. These are not the things that we should add to our worries. But these are just the defragmentation of life. Our lives should be reshuffled, and the outcome is the Daily Dozen.
Notice that the keyword in every category is DAILY. The reason is we can't do anything about yesterday, because it is gone. Neither can we do anything about tomorrow, because it has yet to come, and for some people their tomorrows may never come. So the rationale behind this is, today matters. Do your best today. Live out the full potential of today.
You might not get all those 12 in a day. You can divide it. Choose which categories that you lack most, and start initiating them first.
I love John C. Maxwell's books. They are great books that teach us how to live our lives right and proper. Success doesn't come in a flick of your finger. Success comes from what you did yesterday. So start today, and live your everyday with great purpose and determination. Success will be determined by what you do TODAY.
Sometimes we create things to worry about. Sometimes we are stressed because we make decisions and think things that we shouldn't even think about. Some people always feel their days are miserable, and everyday is a bad day for them.
I was browsing through my uni's library shelves, and to my surprise there was a book written by John C. Maxwell. The book is called "Today Matters".
In that book, John described why many people do not succeed. The reason is people live their everyday lives in the wrong way. We sometimes bring pressure and stress upon ourselves, when we shouldn't even be worried about that.
He reshuffled our lives and came up with 12 things that we only have to decide in our entire lives. Only 12 things we need to think about, and he called it the Daily Dozen:
1) Attitude : Choose and display the right attitudes daily
2) Priorities : Determine and act on important priorities daily
3) Health : Know and follow healthy guidelines daily
4) Family : Communicate with and care for my family daily
5) Thinking : Practice and develop good thinking daily
6) Commitment : Make and keep proper commitments daily
7) Finances : Make and properly manage money daily
8) Faith : Deepen and live out my faith daily
9) Relationships : Initiate and invest in solid relationships daily
10) Generosity : Plan for and model generosity daily
11) Values : Embrace and practice good values daily
12) Growth : Seek and experience improvement daily
These are the only things that we should be thinking and doing. Our lives are categorized into these 12 categories. These are not the things that we should add to our worries. But these are just the defragmentation of life. Our lives should be reshuffled, and the outcome is the Daily Dozen.
Notice that the keyword in every category is DAILY. The reason is we can't do anything about yesterday, because it is gone. Neither can we do anything about tomorrow, because it has yet to come, and for some people their tomorrows may never come. So the rationale behind this is, today matters. Do your best today. Live out the full potential of today.
You might not get all those 12 in a day. You can divide it. Choose which categories that you lack most, and start initiating them first.
I love John C. Maxwell's books. They are great books that teach us how to live our lives right and proper. Success doesn't come in a flick of your finger. Success comes from what you did yesterday. So start today, and live your everyday with great purpose and determination. Success will be determined by what you do TODAY.

New Kid on the Board
Introducing new Chelsea manager, Luiz Felipe Scolari!
This former Brazillian national team coach has helped Brazil win many trophies. Currently managing Portugal, his team has been doing well also.
However....
He has no experience managing at club level. This is something i'm worried about. Managing country and club are two different things
But with the qualities that Scolari has, i'm positive he will do well for Chelsea Football Club!
Welcome the new Blues boss!!

Inflation
The government announced previously that our country's inflation rate is 3%.
I beg to differ!
Just take a simple example. Let's look at your daily wan tan mee price. Previously one plate of wan tan mee was selling at RM 3.50. Now, it is sold at RM 4! That's a 14% increase!
Previously, my mixed/economy rice was average RM 3.30. Now that fella charges me RM 3.60. That's almost 10% increase!
Previously one plate of carbonara that i used to eat was RM 9.90. Now it is RM 12.90! That's an enormous 30% increase!
So just simple calculations on our daily simply things can tell us the inflation rate. There was a report showing that the actual inflation rate of our country is actually 15%.
But why did our government say that our inflation rate is 3%? One reason is our FDI's are decreasing. They want more foreign investors, and also domestic investors to come in.
Wait until these FDI's find out that our inflation rate is actually around 14%, then kantoi lah our government!

Petrol Craze
Thank God i'm driving a diesel car. I got to pump my diesel in less than 30 minutes!
The petrol price has been increased. Increased greatly!
To consumers, this is something bad. Living cost is now higher, while salaries and pays are still the same.
However, i think it's fair that the government reduced the subsidies of petrol. The government has incurred billions and billions of ringgit on petrol subsidies. If they didn't reduce it, the cost might go up to almost RM 60 billion!
I think we as Malaysian citizens should put our feet in the government's shoes. If Malaysia keeps giving so much subsidies, sooner or later we're going to be like the America. Debts will be piling up.
Therefore, in my opinion, the action taken by the government is somewhat reasonable. We have the responsibility to help ease the financial cashflow of our country. Oil price of USD 128 is crazy! How in the world is our country going to survive for the long run.
So stop complaining! Dont' just think of yourselves. Think for your country!
But...at least put RM 2.50 also nevermind la.

No Time for Slackness
You have to agree with me, that these days the world is more demanding than ever. It requires perfection, not good. Everything has become more competitive and once you slack, you're gone.
Look at the world of football. Managers these days are sacked like nobody's business. In the older days, you seldom heard of managers being sacked. But these days, managers are sacked even if they have won championships.
For example the recent Inter Milan boss, Roberto Mancini. I don't see any reason why he should be sacked, as he has won the Italian title.
It doesn't matter what you have done for your employer, as long as you don't win ALL trophies, you're prepared to be sacked.
Competition has also been more fierce than ever. You can be replaced in just a flick of an eye. If you're not doing good enough work, someone may be waiting for your exit. In this case, someone better like Jose Mourinho could be waiting for Mancini's exit, even if he won the Italian title.
The world has become so demanding and competition is so fierce. One degree is never enough for a person now. At least two then only you can put a foot in the battle.
So buck up and gear up. There is no time for slackness.

Love What You Do; Love Work
I'm starting my second last semester soon. Ya, it seems kinda fast. I still remember when i was so worried about my PMR. But with just a blink of eye, i'm finishing my degree. Time flies, it just feels like i just finished my PMR.
I'm finishing end of this year, if everything goes well. By that i mean if my exams are all fine, no failures. By next year i'll enter the working world! I'm quite excited about it, wait, i mean i'm very excited about it.
Many people don't like to enter into the working world. People say working is stressful, no freedom, boring, tiring etc. The reason why people are thinking that way is because they have been brainwashed since young.
Not many people are excited about work. But thank God i love to work. I'm excited about entering the working world. The reason is this, you have to change your mindset to love work. As Donald Trump puts it, "you have to do what you love, or you'll gonna be miserable".
I find it true. If you do what you love, you'll do it as sport, you'll do it as fun stuff. You will enjoy doing what you love to do. If you change your mindset and keep telling yourself that you love working, you will get excited about work.
I thank God for Donald Trump. Reading his books has really given me much inspiration and much knowledge. He has helped me change my mentality about work and career. This is the same thing that i want to do.
Love what you do. Be excited about it. Fall in love with it. Even if it's your work. If you really don't like what you do, then go do something else that you love to do. It can be your work, or whatever. If you love what you do, you'll do it well, you'll do it great, and most of all, you'll have fun doing it.
Therefore, i'm excited about going into the working world. I look at working world differently from most people. I hope you'll do the same.

Try Again
Who said you can be Champions when you entered the finals the first time? Not all clubs can. Most clubs can't. It is just normal.
But one thing you must know, is that we gave the Champions a hell of a hard time winning. Till a point we even almost won the league, if not for a missed-captain-penalty. But hey, nobody is more painful than John Terry himself.
You really can't blame anyone for the loss. Man Utd can tell you that Chelsea deserved to be winners too. Both teams were equal. Just that one club had a little bit more luck than the other.
But it was all an exciting final. One of the best Champions League finals ever! One of Jose Mourinho's legacies: "the chin-up", don't ever give up!!
Because everything has good and bad....the good part is:
I'm an OFFICIAL Chelsea Supporter of Malaysia!!
That tells you i'm with Chelsea FC for the long run. Our blood is BLUE, and we will leave you never! We'll keep the BLUE flag flying high!!
CHELSEA!! CHELSEA!! CHELSEA!! CHELSEA!!

Losing Bright Workforce
This is not the first time that something like this has happened.
I had friends who got very good results, yet they were not given scholarships or acceptance to any universities etc.
This girl got 10 A1's for her last year's SPM, and found that her scholarship was rejected! This scholarship so-called gives guarantees to those who got 9A's and above. Furthermore, her matriculation application was also rejected!
I really don't know what's happening with our government and their stupid quota system. 60% entry or scholarships must be given to bumiputras or something like that?
That's a very wrong strategy! You're taking in lousy students to perform lousily and to contribute lousily to the society or nation!
Smart students from the Chinese and the Indian community who are not given the chance for scholarship are going to overseas to study. Take for example Singapore. Many Chinese friends whom i know are studying in Singapore, and they are very very bright students!
They plan to work in Singapore after they graduate. So, many potential smarties are lost. Malaysia fails to retain bright workforce here.
Do you get what i'm trying to say? When a smart student goes overseas to study, most of the time he/she will continue working there. His/her contribution, which is so beneficial, will benefit the country there, not Malaysia anymore!
While in Malaysia, our brainless government keeps giving scholarships to bumiputras who are not even performing well. When they graduate, nobody is going to be benefited. Our country will keep moving backwards, it already is starting to do so anyway.
Where is your so-called "fairness" and "justice" to ALL Malaysians? I don't care about your bumiputras being the largest population or your "special treatment", what i'm saying is our government's policy is not benefiting this country. We're losing smart workforces!
Quite fed up with this kind of news. Losing smart students to countries overseas!

Truly A Blessed Nation
One small country has made it quite big in the Western Asia area. Its name is Israel. Surprisingly Israel, with a size of around 7 million people, has been growing dramatically in its economy. Posted a 5% increase in annual economic growth, this is almost compatible to Malaysia!
What surprises me more than other countries is that, Israel who is being oppressed constantly by the neighbouring countries, can still grow in their own domestic country. Wars are constantly hitting Israel, almost the whole world is against Israel, many countries have stopped their relations with Israel. But Israel is still growing and is eye-ing to expand to the global economy.
This is truly a blessed nation. Blessed with a great friend like the U.S., who has been constantly protecting Israel and helping them, Israel is really under a good hand of God.
Many economists say that Israel will have a hard time expanding to the global markets. I believe what they said is true. Due to the constant pressuring of the world against Israel, they might find it challenging to expand.
However, what i also believe is that, God will continue to be faithful to His chosen country. Nobody will be able to stop Israel from fulfilling what God has in store. I am also hoping God will bless the U.S. to continue to be strong so that Israel will be well taken care of.

The Pursuit of Happyness
There are many types of movies around these days. But watch this show, you will never regret.
It's called The Pursuit of Happyness. This movie came out quite a while ago but this is one show that i will keep watching. Listen to me now.
This movie is based on a true story of how a man in the 1980's, went broke, bankrupt, pennyless, and literally, everything-less.
His friends left him, his wife left him, people looked down on him. He was so broke until there was one time his bank account left USD 21.33. Plus he had to support his son.
This movie shows how his life was. Even though he was broke, no friends, no support, no place to stay, he persevered. He didn't give up. He went all over the place to make a living, at the same time doing an internship in Dean Witter Brokerage.
He worked 3 times harder than other people who were fighting for the job in the Dean Witter's. He didn't give up, being positive about everything, finally after all the hardships and hardwork, he was the only one who was offered the job of being a stock broker in the firm. That was what he called the pursuit of happiness. He later started his own investment company, and became a multi-millionaire.
I can't help but to cry watching this movie. How encouraging and how touching. You've got to watch this show to understand what i said.
There's one thing that i will never forget what he said, and this is one thing that i want to say to everybody as well:
"Don't let anyone tell you that you can't do it"

New Monkey Came to the Limelight!
I remember Khairy Jamaluddin saying that bloggers are "monkeys". I find it so funny.
He doesn't know that if ALL monkeys are to pee on him, he would die of drowning!
Guess who just came to the world of monkey recently?
Tun Dr. Mahathir!! LOL
Welcome to the blogosphere! This is one blog that i would read everyday.

Unfair Football?
This is so unfair. Alan Curbishley (manager of West Ham United) wanted Manchester United to win the Premier League.
Where is justice and fairness in football?
What's the outcome?
Man Utd won 4-1, with first goal from 3 minutes into the game. Some more such a fake goal!
So unfair you Alan Rubbishley!! Purposely lose so Man Utd can win.

Quotes from a Genius
Quotes from one of the geniuses in this world:
"Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up "
“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”
“The value of an idea lies in the using of it.”
“Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing.”
“Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration.”
- Thomas Edison -
Now you know why he was one of the greatest scientists and geniuses? Not his brain, it was his mentality. *go figure that out*
