be proud of the Jalur Gemilang!!!

hey folks,

First day of October, golly.....we are on a roll and full speed ahead.....before 2012 is approaching....stand by!

NFL:  Redskins....come on..

Well the Skins have a terrific start at 2 n O....sadly lost to the Cowboys......darn it...  Damn luckily didn't watch that game...surely be heart broken...  Really hope they win the nex game or else forget about the playoff.... 

NCAA: College Football

The Hokies...yes my alma mater...did it...hopefully they are on a winning streak.....just hope they stay focus and hold on the football and score touchdowns....and win...

ISA...repeal....good or bad?

Personally mixed feeling about this.....after PM Najib declared that it will go bye bye....  Good side; yes we are on the right track to prove to the World that democracy or say democratic discourse is making its presence felt in Malaysia..  It is high time that the so-called act is put away...  But, security stability is something to ponder if the ISA is going to go bye bye by next year.....  Hopefully the new so called act that is supposed to replace ISA will cover some elements of extremist activities that may cause disharmany or instability to our beloved melting pot, multiethnic, multidiversity Malaysia. 

Up coming Budget?

All eyes and ears will wait for PM Najib to make his budget announcement of where or how or what Malaysia is heading.  As an average 'Joe' in this country, hopefully it is a really people-friendly budget in view of the high cost of living and inflation existing in almost every stores directly or indirectly.  With the exception of the so called 'Rich' folks, things are expensive and quality is unfortunately not meeting its so called good standards.  No doubt this budget is really a one of the warm up acts by PM Najib to please the silent majority especially with the so called possible General Election that may happen this year or next year....wait n see.....

Whining about our Malaysian Flag.......Good Grief!

Several weeks ago, a politician remarked that he is not happy with our beloved Malaysian Flag..or we call it the 'Jalur Gemilang' because it reminded of him that it is resembling the Barisan Nasional colour and also that it also resemble the US flag...  Imagine, during Malaysia Day, he proudly show off his political party flag and handed out to his constituents...  what a bump!  Excuse my Fwench!  First thing first; the Jalur Gemilang was created even long before the Barisan Nasional came into being which was in the early 70s and second no doubt the red and white stripes resemble of the US flag, but that doesn't necesssarily mean we are Pro US or copying US...  Look at the flag of Liberia, also have the red and white stripes....  Talk about unintelligent political rhetorical deem to fail stardom by this so called politician.  Frankly, if you are a politician regardless from which party be it government or opposition; please please...focus focus...it is the issues everyday around us that average Joe like me is interested....not some foolish remarks about our pride and glory Jalur Gemilang (Malaysian Flag).  In the end that poor politician did apologise and retract, but again the damage has already been done....  In the words of Alanis Morissette, " you live you learn'......

Cheerios!
