Gong Xi Fa Cai coffeeshop talk

Gong Xi FA Cai, Happy Chinese New Year.......It's good to be back....
So many things happen these two weeks......Everybody was really busy preparing to welcome the year of the Golden Ox......including myself....
Suddenly I found myself falling ill just before the big day.... It was after so many years, I have lost count and the Virus attack was sever.....just could not get out of bed and the whole body muscle was like coming apart....the fever was intermittent and worst, the rashes started to appear on my legs and hands.....It was scaring too, especially there were so many Denggi and Chikungunya cases in town......In five days, I went in and out of hospital three times.....getting my red blood tested for placet counts....The first test was 173 and the next was 258.....So lucky it was not....And now I am on the road to a full recovery......hopefully so....
So many things have happened during the Chinese New Year week, but the most talk about was the Kugan case.... I would not like to comment much as I think that it does not warrant much comments........If this is the way our country is being govern, sad to say........the people are not stupid anymore.........just wait for the next election and see.... Recycle ministers talking nonsense. Why I say that???? Everybody is still in celebrating mood, the CNY and the holidays, but suddenly you hear one of the many recycle minister telling you the that the sugar price will be increase soon. what increase, no body even ask in the first place. That's what I say when you have recycle ministers, you get recycle news and now the the traders start to hoard sugars and everybody start to stockup sugar and in the end who started the sugar shortage thing???
Another interesting story is the fuel surcharge thing. You can hear that school bus operators are also imposing all these hidden artificial charges. and the best part is the minister will be starting to talk on behalf of all these bus operators as though he has some shares in them. Ask all these recycle ministers who are they working for? If not for the people who voted for them. Have they not forgotten a certain toll minister who was kicked out by his own voters in the March 08 election...Because he always talk for the toll concessionares.

KTM Komuter

I have an interesting story to share. I was on emergency leave to attend some personal matters yesterday. For a change, I decided to take the Komuter. My journey was from Segambut to Serdang station..... It was peak hour at 6:52am in the morning. By the time the Komuter arrive at the Segambut station, it was already packed of people to the brim.........What choice I got if I do not want to miss the appointment......So I inched my way into the front coach. It was worst than sardines in a can. Now I can visualised the daily sufferings of the people, the office workers, the labourers, students, old and young and the list goes on and on............You must in there to experience what the actual situation... I must really thank god for what I have today, really appreciates all the basic things of life. Mind you, luckily it was early in the morning and the surrounding smell was still fresh and nice, with all the perfumes and what not. In the komuter there no more room, you dont even get a chance to pickup a thing if you happens to drop it on the floor. There is no chance you'll not touch the next person to you as the train starts to move forward. You know I can see and feel that the majority of the passengers are true experienced daily commuters. Guess how I know from the way the follow the rythm of tha sway........ Each time when the train starts to move forward, all of them would lean backwards and as the Komuter slows down to the next stop all the passengers would lean backwards again, amazing really. From the way I see that each and everyone seems to hold tight to their handbags and bags, there must be pickpockets loitering around. Well, through these once experience, I would sincerely suggest to the government and the Transport Minister in particular to look into the agony and sufferings the people have been facing daily. The moral of the story is that we should be not only thankful of what we have, but appreciate the little things in live life to the max....

Toll and Malaysian Made

Good morning, Today I have two topics toshare with you guys. First the Toll issue and then the Buy Malaysian Goods. I whole hearthedly agree with what the CM of Penang wrote in yesterday's Star paper. Read it yourself, don't be lazy. Yes, as I shall summarised it from the layman's point of view, the declassified documents figures shows that PLUS has been making so much money over the years since its inception. Where can you find, doing business in the world where the profit is guaranteed, hahaha...... Only in Malaysia. A former works minister has been protecting the company for so many umpteenth years until finally, suddenly the people wokeup one day and kick him out of Parliament. Where in the world you dont get a discount, however small for the tol fare especially when you are paying upfront, only Malaysia bole..... I call it Malaysia bagang............ hahaha... Okay la... I got a small secret to tell you, but only you can utilise it on the Penang bridge, not even the ferry, mind you. Go buy the Touch'n Go card from the Penang bridge customer center and when you get to use it on the toll on the Penang bridge, you get a discount...........hahaha...
Okay coming back to the next issue of buying Malaysian goods.........I tell you, those guys out there shouting and getting the TV camera to capture them are like a bunch of fools........After fifty years, now only they suddenly wake and realise and telling us, telling the whole world to buy Malaysian made goods. Just look at the simple things, shirt, the jeans, the cars, the computer, the handphones and you can go on and on with the list,,,,,,,,,,,,,come on lar frens........ As though that all the Malaysians are so stupid like them..............Wake lar..... I need to go for my breakfast..............

Back to School

Well, a very good morning to all and everyone. We have move into 2009 and it's already into the 6th day. Well time flies without us knowing. I can still hear, see and read many people are reassesing what they called their New Year Rosultions and what not. As for me, I have vow not to make any resolutions, my only dream that I can be healthy, do whatever I can do and see my children growing and slowly turning into mature hardworking adults one day too. I wish that the world can be a better place to live in. The last few days, there were nothing much I would comment from the newspapers. I like it this way, the lesser the politician talks, the better the news from the newspapers. Hope our news editor keep it that way. The politicians should be busy walking their talks by now, making sure that the food prices, especially, be it raw or cooked should justify the actual crude oil prices now. They should be looking at and making sure that the bus fares of our school children, the man in the street should not paying through their nose, what not I called it the crooked way by imposing a so called surcharge. What SURCHARGE????? Come on.....Please don't think the people stupid anymore..........

Safety road ratings

Hahahaha......I like those words, and today, just after only 3 days into 2009, already 24 people have been killed. Never mind we set up another committee to investigate, hahahaha.....
Come on..... simple reasoning.....I think the high number of death is because those enforcers are busy implementing the new laws, looking for people not buckling up at the back seat. So they forget to see the front, that's why you get so many accidents. Our politicians like to ape the west ka east ka north ka... south ka... the only thing thing they forget to see is the way the locals drive, hahahaha........... You want my suggestion, good, but no point just reading it, then it'll be a waste of your time..... Simple, the laws are there, enforce it with INTERGRITY, the very basic rule. There is no compromise. Drivers mentallity, you cannot change them. So........wakeup....If the need be, a mojority of our enforcers need to be changed first....... They do not know the priority...

Okay, on another issue, School Terms starting tomorrow...........
The MOE has suspended the collection of School FEES and funds to Mid year...........yayaya.... says the majority of the PIBG because it'll burden the parents now and NOT later, hahahaha....
come on, simple mathematics calculation.........Do it yourself, DUMB.
Can you all recall, Oh......thank you for giving us the year end BONUS, It comes in handy, It'll surely help lessen our burden for our school going children, yells the civil servants........Now? what happens to the money? Think for youself....
Another related issue, The amount of PIBG funds wish to be collected must get the approval of the PPD first. What happens if the amount is rejected PPD? Mind you that the amount has been agreed by the PIBG AGMs. So we have another extra AGMs..... Come on la.....
Majority of parents want the best for their child, what you think, want to get everything FREE... From the wormb to the Tomb......But can drive new car, latest handphones, monthly Astro subscription and the list go on and on and on........think for yourself... I need to go...
