CM in St. Anne’s(0)

Just came back from St. Anne’s Novena…latin rites. No wonder some people love them. They do really give an “out of this world” taste to the whole sacred mass thing. You get the shiver when they chant the Creedo in latino et al.
And prester Steven Liew (so I heard his name) with mitre on [...]

Power…What is Power?(0)

My friend Y and I was at Starbucks the other. I must admit that I have been a little stressed up from work these days (and the news of Anwar’s arrest didn’t help at all) and wanted a breather and some good coffee…and Y was a great company, as usual.
We chatted from politics to philosophy [...]

Dewan Dum Dee Dum - UMNO & Racism(0)

Blogging live from the Penang State Assemby.
YB Pinang Tunggal (UMNO) threw a baseless racist allegation on the State Government for allegedly removing a senior officer in InvestPenang because the said person is a Malay.

Terengganu Barisan Nasional EXCOs prefer Mercedes over Perdana(0)

Terengganu Menteri Besar, Dato’ Ahmad Said who was “rumoured” to have spent more than RM5mil to secure the top spot of the 12th SUKMA held in Terengganu last month did it again!
News from the BN Government propaganda machine:
Exco Terengganu dapat Mercedes ganti Perdana V6
KUALA TERENGGANU 19 Julai – Kerajaan Terengganu membelanjakan kira-kira RM3.43 juta bagi [...]

Anwar Ibrahim & Syariah Court(1)

Being someone who is keen on the development of a double civil-syariah court system in our country, I am quite aghast at Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s latest move to seek restitution in the syariah court against Saiful-what’s-his-second-name’s allegation of sodomy.
