TOK-TOK ARAB ZAHID KETEMUI

Dalam suasana harga minyak merudum, Tok-Tok Arab ini adalah yang paling murah hati dalam dunia. Masing2 mengakui ada hulur derma sejumlah 2.6bilion semuanya kapada Najib kata Zahid setelah berbicara dengan mereka. 

Kemudian, mereka bisik kapada Zahid yang ia juga akan terima 1bilion masuk saku sendiri dalam tempoh terdekat. Zahid nak kata apa? Orang mengantuk disorong bantal! 

Apabila ditanya mengapa murah hati sebegitu tanpa apa2 ikatan atau timbal balik? 

"What the fuck, we give you take brother".

JAPANESE WOMEN

LEE LAM THYE - TRUE PATRIOT

Lee Lam Thye, a former strongman of DAP, now for many years a social activist and head of several NGOs. From his writings, voluntary activities, contributions towards the Malaysian society he has shown his colours as a true patriot.

Lee Lam Thye should be made a senator and minister/deputy minister. Among others who deserve senatorial positions in a shadow cabinet: 

Khoo Kay Kim

Kadir Jasin

Ridhuan Tee

Syed Akbar Ali

OPEN LETTER TO MB SELANGOR

This is an open complaint for further action and improvement addressed to:

1) YDP Majlis Perbandaran Kajang

2) Setiausaha Negeri, Selangor

3) Menteri Besar, Selangor

4) Member of Parliament, Kajang

5) Ketua Setiausaha Negara

The new, 4-year old twin 6-storey MPKJ is located adjacent to the former 2-storey office building (and land) that has been sold(?) for commercial development. The could have allocate part of the land at least for expansion of the much crowded Kajang Hospital.

One Sunday morning several weeks ago, I was amazed to see the large fleet of vehicles the MPKJ operates as seen in the pictures below.

Pic. 1 

Buses: 2 (40+ seater and 20+ seater). The smaller bus not around. 

Pic. 2: Saloon cars - 3, Vans - 3

Pic. 3: Van - 1, Saloons - 2

Pic. 4: Van - 1, Saloons - 3, Twincab - 1

Pic. 5: Vans - 2, Saloons - 2, Twincab - 1

Pic. 6: Van 1; Saloons 3, SUV(?) - 1

Tally of vehicles of MPKJ (most likely an underestimate):

Buses - 2

Saloons - 16

Vans - 8

Twincabs - 2

SUV - 1

Lorries - ?

With a total of more than 30 vehicles, large and small, the MPKJ's mobility is indeed high. For what purpose? The bill for purchasing and maintenance of the vehicles is costly. 

What do the tax payers get? There is so much rubbish heaps around as if the MPKJ do not have a proper system and manpower to do regular clean-up. 

Thus, as far as health and cleanliness maintenance under its jurisdiction is rated poorly. That is one reason why Kajang is famous for rats and dengue!

Pic. 7: Just these people live in low-cost flats, MPKJ can let the rubbish pile-up uncollected many months already.

The YDP is answerable to all these waste and unhealthy environment in Kajang principality. If you are in doubt what is presented, check the facts yourself and make a survey of feedbacks from the people.

All over the country the Majlis Daerahs and Perbandarans are noted for their extravagant, wastage, mismanagement, incompetence. Is there any of them operate in the black? All of them should produce financial annual reports so that the public could monitor what happen to their money.

I have the years of exposure and experience living in other districts - Teluk Intan, Cameron Highlands, Batu Gajah, Tampin, Mukah, Bintulu to back me up. More of the same. 

Efficient systems and technologies are available to dispose wastes. How they do it in Japan? If at 28million people we cannot cope with garbage disposal what more at higher population.

GARGANTUAN TUNNEL RIGS

Malaysia first made use of the latest technology in tunnel boring to build the dual purpose (roadway and flood control) Smart Tunnel in Kuala Lumpur. Currently, MRT Corp is using the tunnel rigs to build underground rail to connect with the integrated SPAD transport system in the Klang Valley. In other countries longer and complex tunnels have been built of which The Chunnel crossing the English Channel is the most ambitious.

Motorcar tunnels.  The longest (24.5km) is at Laerdal, Norway.

Rail and carriage tunnels, Seikan Tunnel, the longest (53.6km).

SONGS OF MELANCHOLY - ORANG UTAN

The orang utan is also known as mawas (Malay) or maias (Eng), a corruption of the former. They are found in the Borneo, the third largest island in the world. Eons ago they may perhaps inhabit a much lager homeland when there were land bridges connecting the land masses in the archipelago. Somehow,  a large  community of them became isolated and continued to breed in Borneo. 

HULA-HOOP ON BIC MAMA'S 66TH

For her 66th birthday, Bic Mama reminiscence's of Brimmer-Pretender's round of golf in Hawaii with Obama several months ago. Imagine half naked Bic Mama gyrating and wriggling her tonggek buttocks to the increasing crescendo of hula music. Something got to burst, either her bra slip or straw skirt! Have fun Bic Mama on your birthday.

Hula dance, made famous by the Hawaiian islands.

Siva dance, Fiji - a version of hula

Maori dance, adapted and modernised of the hula in New Zealand, located at the fringe outside Polynesia.

Exotic dancers on the island of Java, accompanied by an instrument made of sugar-cane, delighted early Dutch explorers with their graceful sensuous movements. Gradually Europeans came to admire such unspoiled and highly civilised aspects of "uncivilised" societies.
