You can only trick so many people......... as the saying goes! By Christopher Badeaux ( Profile ) In the West, we tend to ignore the Muslim countries of Southeast Asia too often in favor of the more rambunctious Middle East; whether this is because we are concentrating our limited energies on the larger problem spot, or ignoring places where things are going well, is probably a function of ones particular outlook on life. Regardless of the source of this disregard, it is an error as great as choosing to ignore the safe streets in city planning in favor of the bullet-ridden ones. The good things dont last without some tending of their own. That leads to Malaysia, a moderate Muslim country with strong trade ties to the United States, that we too often ignore along with its other, moderate neighbors in favor of a pointless bombing campaign in Libya and other adventures in futility. Malaysia has done well for itself, holding fast to a moderate stra

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) cleared Attorney-General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail of graft allegations over his Haj pilgrimage to Mecca with his family.MACC also cleared former MACC Consultation and Corruption Prevention Panel member Tan Sri Robert Phang of having tried to bribe a ministry's secretary-general.There was not enough evidence to prove graft, according to the MACC on Tuesday.Malaysian online news portals and bloggers had been playing pictures of Abdul Gani seen together with Shahidan Shafie, who was said to be close to former Malaysia Airlines chairman Tan Sri Tajuddin Ramli in the recent haj pilgrimage in Mecca. They had claimed that Shahidan had convinced Abdul Gani not to press charges against Tajuddin, who was chairman of MAS from 1994 to 2001, over the national carrier's loses which ran into billions.MAS was reported to have filed several reports against Tajuddin with the MACC, citing Tajuddin's move to relocate MAS&

Bila sebut saja barang naik semua marah kat BN,tak kiralah barang apa pun dari beras hinggalah kepada gas .Kontol Anwar naik tutuh jantan betina pun pakatan marah kat BN. Hebat jugak BN boleh kawal harga minyak diseluruh dunia. Jalan penyelesaian yang diambil tidak menaikkan harga RON95 melegakan seluruh rakyat di negara ini tetapi menaikkan kemarahan haprak pakatan kerana tidak berupaya bermain isu ini untuk membangkitkan kemarahan rakyat. Kurang seminggu kemudian pengumuman dibuat oleh Menteri Tenaga, Teknologi Hijau dan Air, Datuk Seri Peter Chin Fah Kui penyelarasan tarif baru. Peluang ini diambil oleh haprak pakatan yang sememangnya bebal berfikir untuk menyerang apa saja yang ada didepan mereka. Siapa pun tak sebut selama ini kerajaan memberi elektrik percuma kepada rakyat,Kerajaan terus memberi bekalan elektrik percuma kepada pengguna yang bil elektriknya di bawah RM20. Kerajaan dijangka menanggung kos RM122 juta setahun untuk membiayai bekalan percuma ini. Siapa yang dapat? R

May 31, 2011 MAY 31 I had the opportunity to work and settle down in two rich foreign countries. Why did I return to Malaysia (in 1996, with a PhD and years of work experience in hand) and stayed?Growing up in Kuantan (now in grave danger of being turned into a dumping ground for toxic waste material) and Malaysia during the 1960s and 1970s instilled in me a deep love for this country and appreciation of its mix of peoples and cultures best exemplified by our wonderful food and our delightful dialect of English called Manglish.Living in two foreign countries for almost 20 years (the years of study and work drifted by quickly the thought of emigrating never even crossed my mind right from the beginning when I first went overseas for my higher education on a generous scholarship from a foreign university) made me realise that one can never feel truly at home in a foreign country even if one has lived in that foreign country for years and years.In spite of the many things that are wron

This blogger was just alerted that Tan Sri Robert Phang have been cleared by MACC with regard to allegation in this blog of him trying to bribe a Ministry's Secretary General. Read back posting here . Robert Phang was making ruckus demanding MACC to investigate a case already openned by police's commercial crime division against Tan Sri Tajuddin Ramli with regards to losses at MAS during his Chairmanship and allegations of graft against Tan Sri Gani Patail involving Haj pilgrimmage. The revelation by this blogger against Phang serve the purpose to get the attention to reveal the ridiculous allegations vociferously made by Phang. So he is released, but it is only because of insufficient evidence. It does not mean he is innocent of the allegations made. God knows and this blogger stand by the story and his source. However, there is many more from were it came from. My heart is ready and can stand up to the pressure. Together cleared is Attorney General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail f

A lady in a faded gingham dress and her husband, dressed in a homespun threadbare suit, stepped off the train in Boston, and walked timidly without an appointment into the president of Harvard's outer office. The secretary could tell in a moment that such backwoods, country hicks had no business at Harvard and probably didn't even deserve to be in Cambridge. She frowned. "We want to see the president," the man said softly. "He'll be busy all day," the secretary snapped. "We'll wait," the lady replied. For hours, the secretary ignored them, hoping that the couple would finally become discouraged and go away. They didn't. And the secretary grew frustrated and finally decided to disturb the president, even though it was a chore she always regretted to do. "Maybe if they just see you for a few minutes, they'll leave," she told him. And he sighed in exasperation and nodded. Someone of his importance obviously didn't ha

Great is the community that would pay for tickets to listen to new ideas from a disparate group of speakers. LAST month, I spent an inspiring five days in Palo Alto, the heart of Silicon Valley. In the midst of global attention on the democracy wave hitting Egypt, Tunisia and the Arab world, and with emotions running high among American Muslims and liberals over a congressional hearing on the supposed radicalisation of the American Muslim community, my visit came at a most opportune time. A close friend who was a classmate at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, where I did my graduate work, had invited me to give a talk at a fund-raising event at her daughters all-girls private school. What impressed me most was the sense of responsibility and commitment I saw among the many women and men I met. Open to new ideas: The writer (centre) with Laurene Jobs (left) and Nancy Biffar. All of them consciously wanted to learn and absorb new ideas and to contribute their time and money

NEVADA If youre having difficulties getting pregnant, new research announced May 26 suggests that cutting back on caffeine might help. Researchers from the University of Nevada School of Medicine in the US found that caffeine could impair fertility in women by relaxing the cells of the muscles in the fallopian tubes, which carry a womans eggs from her ovaries to her womb. Caffeine inhibits the contractions of the muscles in the fallopian tube, so the egg stops getting transported, study researcher Sean Ward told health website MyHealthNewsDaily. Ward and his team tested the effect of caffeine on mice, which he said are similar reproductively to humans. The study didnt give specifics on how much caffeine may impact fertility, but the amount they tested in their research was about the equivalent to two cups of coffee for humans. This provides an intriguing explanation as to why women with high caffeine consumption often take longer to conceive than women who do not consume caffeine, sta

May 31, 2011 Protestors forcing the Beserah group to leave. Pictures by Shannon TeohKUANTAN, May 31 For the second day in a row, demonstrators supporting the controversial rare earth plant forced anti-Lynas protestors to leave the Hyatt Regency here.The group of about 100 men confronted a group of residents from Beserah, where the plant is located, just as they finished their meeting with the International Atomic Energy Agency-led (IAEA) team that is here to meet local stakeholders.After a scuffle, the Beserah group led by their assemblyman Syed Mohammad Lonnik and community leader Andansura Rabu had to be escorted by police light strike force officers to their car.Earlier in the morning, protestors wearing Save Malaysia, Stop Lynas T-shirts were also chased away from the beach in front of the hotel by the pro-Lynas group.Many of the pro-Lynas group were those here yesterday holding up banners supporting the IAEA and also Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Adnan Yaakob.Two reporters from Chines

Electricity tariff has been raised by an average of 7%. Not everyone will be affected. On the plus side, those who use less than RM77 a month will probably not be affected. However, those who are in this category please do not be too happy; they will be affected indirectly. Those who use more than RM77 a month will be affected directly. Who are those using more than RM77? Majority of these will be middle class households in cities and towns. If you have a fridge, 2 air-conditioners, a washing machine, do some ironing and use lights at night, you will probably be in this category. Most of us staying in KL or other towns will probably be in this category. It is no more a luxury to have air-conditions , as our weather has become hotter compared to the 60s and 70s. Fridge and washing machines have become necessity too due to the modern lifestyle. If you run a small business, you will probably be affected too. When businesses are affected, cost of doing business will go up, and this rise in

The opposition is making this an issue because they were worried of the great response from youths, he was quoted by Bernama Online today.Khairy was responding to PKR Youths claim today that Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak had spent taxpayers funds and exploited the World Youth Day event in Putrajaya to defend the ruling Barisan Nasionals (BN) narrow political agenda.In his speech at the event on Saturday, Najib called on attending youths to defend Putrajaya from the opposition if they wished to see Malaysia transformed into a

May 30, 2011 Power tariffs will be increased by 7.12 per cent on average come June 1. Reuters picKUALA LUMPUR, May 30 Economists expect todays price hikes in electricity and natural gas to be passed through to inflation-weary consumers, possibly pushing up the monthly consumer price index (CPI) by as much four per cent in the next few months from 3.2 per cent in April.This follows the announcement from Putrajaya today that the electric tariff will be raised by 2.3 sen per kilowatt hour (kWh) or an average of 7.12 per cent while the price of natural gas charged by Petronas for power generation will go up by RM3.00 per mmBtu each six months until it reached market levels.I wouldnt be surprised if the monthly inflation rate from June through to the third quarter approaches four per cent, said Maybank Investment Bank chief economist Suhaimi Illias. People also forget that effective next month, the diesel super subsidy will also be removed which will impact the cost of logistics.He added

Sometimes, technology makes it so much more easier for us to not waste too much time on writing about the political shenanigans of those whose lifelong ambitions in life is nothing but to squeeze in their butt onto the plush most coveted seat of power over this nation located there at the Prime Minister's Department at Putrajaya! We just need to watch, listen to and carefully analyze all that's being presented to us in the compilation of video clippings above and only then probably come to a conclusion as to who it is that we want running or ruining this nation of ours in the next 13th GE? We all now know as to the endless promises after promises that people like the PKR's head honcho has been making to Malaysia ever since he had the political carpet yanked abruptly from right under his ambitious DPM's feet way back in 1998? We also heard of the political coup that was supposed to have taken place on the 16th of September, 2008? We also heard him promising the Kg Buah P

May 30, 2011 KUALA LUMPUR, May 30 PKR Youth accused today the prime minister of abusing public funds and exploiting the Million Youths Assembly in Putrajaya last Saturday to defend the ruling Barisan Nasionals (BN) narrow political agenda.Its information chief Lee Khai Loon said Datuk Seri Najib Razak had used the World Youth Day celebration to attack the opposition, adding the incident showed the PM did not understand Putrajayas function as the national administrative capital.In the context of a democratic country, Putrajaya is owned by Malaysian citizens and is the administrative centre of the government chosen during elections. Putrajaya is not the absolute property of any political party, Lee said in a statement today in reply to Najibs rallying cry to youths during the event.Najib had told an 8,000-strong crowd that turned up in the federal territory that if in Egypt one million youths gathered in Tahrir Square to change that countrys leadership... in Malaysia, one million youths

Back in December 2009, this blogger seek for a review in the role of MRSM and other boarding schools here . The number qualified has risen dramatically and boarding school does not meet the current role in education. Boarding school is a misallocation of resources for elite middle class few over the masses. The role of boarding school must go back to the basic of assisting social mobility for the facility-deprived rural and urban poor students. Few months back, this blogger was in the audience listening to Prime Minister, Dato Seri Najib Tun Abdul Razak's speak in the Parliament building. The gist of his speech is the new way forward for the country. The 1Malaysia Government will be fair to all. In the reward of scholarships, he said the Bumiputera affirmative action program will remain in tact. On the same note he said, it is not fair that the straight As or A+s are not awarded scholarships. The SPM result were just out. Students are in a rush for placement into Universities and C

Below was an email received for sharing and readers to take note. Dear all (especially for those who travels a lot with north-south highway), This is a true event! It happened to my friend, Alvin. Alvin came all the way from JB to Selayang, KL, on a business trip. At about 12:30am, 29/4/2011, his Toyota was over-heated, he then parked at the emergency lane (KM269.9) before Seremban exit, North-South Highway. Planning to let the engine cool down, add water to the water tank and slowly drive to KL, he took his rest for a while... A while later, a tow truck arrived to offer a helping hand. The driver is an Indian wearing a Chinese workshop jacket, estimated the towing fees and rough costing to repair the over-heating engine for about less than RM200. Both agreed, the car was towed to a workshop in Mambau. Seremban. Yup, it's ?? ?uto??bil Enterprise !!! Operated by a bunch of Indian. (I don't mean that all Indians are like them, I have lots of good Indian friends too.)
