Quite frankly, never in my wildest dream had I envisaged our country's opposition parties to have done so well during the last General Elections in March. Perhaps, I did not have enough faith. But then again, I was but only one of the many Malaysians who felt that even if I voted for the opposition (which I did) with a hope that there would be more effective check and balance in this country, I

There were about 1000 to 1500 in the group of demonstrators and the "leader" was telling the group to remain calm and be orderly. There was also a group of men in red-shirt who were keeping the group orderly and in line. The demonstration is peaceful as they

The Pakatan Rakyat alliance has called for an immediate boycott of Malay newspapers Utusan Malaysia and Mingguan Malaysia for what it said was unfair reporting and for allegedly fanning racial sentiments.

I have been very busy with work lately so much so that blogging has been sporadic. That does not mean, however, that I have not been following the news. It's just that I have not felt the urge to blog about the silly things and statements uttered by our politicians of late.

Arising from the ashes of defeat of the 2008 General Elections, many politicians from the Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Rakyat divide have ventured into blogging - an effective tool which many found to have made considerable impact in the run-up to the General Elections.

There used to be a trend amongst supporters of opposition parties to vote as follows :- the Parliament seat goes to the Opposition party (non-BN) whilst the State seat goes to the BN candidate.

I am still on vacation and blogging from a dial-up line (who else but Tm.Net) which is moving at a snail's pace. I learnt that Parliament was dissolved yesterday by the PM though he refuted claims the day before that it would be dissolved yesterday.

My guess on the outcome of the coming General Elections is this - BN will win and continue to govern this country. It goes without doubt that they have the monies to do so.

The trade union leaders were hoping for closer to a 6% Employees Provident Fund (EPF) dividend as the economy and the fund’s investments have done well last year. They were also hoping that the Government will approve this figure because this is an election year. It was just 5.15% for the year 2006.

It has been an eventful 3 months in Malaysian politics with the Barisan Nasional led government getting a couple of blows which threaten to shake their confidence in the coming General Election.The first massive blow was arguably the lawyer's march for justice in Putrajaya calling for an end to the rot in the judiciary.

Our Toyota Avanza is now almost 2 years old and for until last month, we thought that the slightly loud roar which came from the back of the car upon acceleration was normal.

Time flies indeed and I will be 33 tomorrow. I remembered when I was in school (or was it college?) and my teacher asked the class to write something about what we would like to achieve when we were old (I can't remember the exact age, probably 50 years old I think). I remembered I wrote something about being married with kids, having a house of my own, a car for my own as well as for my wife and

For the last 3 months, my kids have been exposed to all kinds of germs out there and this is especially so in a child care centre. There was the coxsackie viral attack and now, it's Rotavirus. Initially, we thought it was just a normal running nose and phlegm episode which would take its course with normal medication (Terbutaline and Hydrozine). However, the elder girl started developing fever

I graduated in June 1996. Just 2 weeks prior to my graduation ceremony, my wife (she was my girlfriend then) flew over from Kuching to London to join me for a trip of London and Paris. So, early preparation was required.I popped over to the Students' Union to try to get as much information as possible for cheap hotels in London. You can understand why because I was on a tight budget and I had to

Last Friday, as I was travelling back to my office after appearing in the Courts, there was a slight traffic congestion as I passed by Istana Negara. Some tour buses were making their way to Istana Negara and trying to find a place to park. As it is, there were a couple of buses parked outside the gates of Istana Negara already and these other buses were finding it hard to manourve to a decent

After 1 1/2 years, finally the first adsense cheque arrived. No, I am not showing a picture of the cheque just like what many others are doing because it is nothing so much to shout about but I am happy nevertheless that blogging has its side rewards. What I am most pleased is that what took me 18 months to amass will probably now take me 5 months as my accumulation for 1 month is about USD20 at

Whilst I was studying in England, I was a member of my university's International Students Association - for a purpose. It is no secret that the ISA organises numerous trips around the country at friendly student rates. As such, I was able to go on day trips to places like Bath, Oxford and Cambridge for a song.During winter 1995, I took the opportunity to travel to Scotland for a week with other

Firstly, for the sake of this post, let me confine the definition of job-hoppers to those who switch jobs in less than 18 months. I am pretty sure you would have encountered some of these people or have heard about such practices or perhaps, you are one of them!?! Frankly, honestly and with much confession, I don't have much regard for these people.Seriously, if you are an employer, will you

I did the unthinkable. I bought tickets for the 12.20pm show on Saturday. Nice seats in a new cinema (air-conditioning was wintry, I must say). All excited. Pop corn in hand (first time buying pop corn for a movie) and tiny fingers in tow as I brought my daughter to watch Transformers.It's her first cinema movie watching experience, and my first since watching Jet Li's last kung fu movie. She was

Jetstar Airways of Australia has just released its special promotional ticket of RM88.00 from Kuala Lumpur to Sydney for the period of travel Sept 9-20 this year and Feb 3-28 next year provided you make your booking and purchase between NOW and 10pm tomorrow (Wed, July 25th). Of course, you will still have to factor in the surcharges, fees and taxes for a grand total of RM471.26, which is still

Adultery on the rise as women look for 'love' and Man finds out wife, not daughter, having affair are two latest news feeds I read these 2 days. I am not the least surprised with the current "trend" of happening in the world of marriage. As a lawyer, I have encountered many divorce cases wherein the marriage broke down due to a cheating partner - sometimes both. An enquiry or visit to the High

Owning a house can be a very enlightening experience. Prior to owning a house, I didn't expect the amount of money that I would need to fork out to make a brand new house complete. For buyers of new houses i.e. houses which you buy from developers, what you get is a house minus the fittings. And that means minus the lighting, grilles, curtains / blinds, cabinets, etc - unless some are thrown in

The recent news on approximately 170 school girls being forced to dunk themselves in a fish pond has brought much attention on the appropriateness or rather, disproportionate and humiliating punishment meted out by the school warden on the school girls. According to the warden, some girls have repeatedly thrown their used sanitary pads into the toilet bowls of the school's toilet thus clogging

I am kinda worried. I have not heard from Daryl of How to Earn Money Blogging aka author of MyList aka Clinke Bidding Directory aka Daryl's Discovery aka How to Make aka Authentic Malaysian Cuisine aka World of Warcraft Tips. Have you?He hasn't blogged for a couple of weeks now (which is strange) but that is not all. My email to him has not been replied and same goes for my sms and phone calls.

Now is a new chance for you to make money - provided you sing in the bathroom and live in India. Apparently, an Indian television channel is looking for good bathroom singers in its new reality show "Bathroom Singer". Wow! Talk about reality shows and what these guys can think of!Anyway, do you sing in the bathroom? I used to. Before I was married, I think. Or probably before I started working.

Well, maybe I used the title a bit too strongly. No, I won't say that I am a bathroom addict but I must say that I like gorgeous looking bathrooms. One of the first things I check out when I check in (heh!) into a hotel room is the bathroom and nothing thrills me more than to see nice toiletries and fittings which are in working order. I prefer those which are minimalist in design - almost

I've been slightly stressed out lately. And I think I know why. It has got to be my unfinished minutes. I've been attending and chairing a couple of meetings lately and most of the time, I get the unenviable job of taking down the minutes. I don't know why but somehow, I get appointed to be the secretary for the day. Perhaps it is due to a perception that lawyers are good with taking minutes. But

Travelling Insurance can come in many forms - to cover against missing baggage, missed flight connections, flight delays and even, against mishaps to the person. I experienced a claim under travel insurance once when my ex-maid's bag went missing after a flight from Kuching to Kuala Lumpur. Luckily enough, the travel insurance helped cover the loss and I was able to get some replacement clothing

I don't know what's happening but I can't get my hands to deal with my wordpress blogs properly. My Delicious Asian Food blog is acting cranky and I can't log into the dashboard. It feels rather helpless being unable to do anything about it. I've sent an email to my kind host and hoping that he'll look into it.For now, my solace is in Blogspot here.

Petaling Street is known to be Kuala Lumpur's Chinatown. The real Petaling Street with people walking and traders hawking. Not the cyber reality Petaling Street where bloggers ping their posts. I was there yesterday evening as I needed to grab a quick dinner before my meeting in Church. I go there, perhaps once a month in recent years due to my involvement in Church activities.Anyway, I settled

Prior to the civil suits filed by The New Straits Times Press (Malaysia) Berhad, Kalimullah bin Masheerul Hassan, Hishamuddin bin Aun and Brenden John a/l John Pereira against Jeff Ooi and Ahiruddin Atan (Rocky's Bru) for defamation, Malaysian bloggers generally threw caution to the wind and did not consider the issue of defamation whilst posting in their blogs.
