As we are all waiting for the dawn of a new era for our beloved Malaysia, let us take some time to listen to conscientious voices from former times…
The ancient social reformer Isaiah Ben Amoz said these words to a corrupted nation, and I think he speaks to us today as well, both as a warning…
Damn [...]
An intense week of campaigning just ended for me…
I was on duty at the Teluk Wang polling district for the P44 Pmtng Pauh By-Election since about 8 am this morning. Some interesting observations:
1. Although there were waves of blue Barisan Nasional posters and flags everywhere, the presence of a single race Malay supporters in Arif [...]

Thanks Bob for the wonderful song
I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love:
The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
The love that never falters, the love [...]
We lived tru this dark terrifying Advent nights
Feasting on fear rained from the stormy clouds above;
'twas night for sure, but no stars in-sight,
cold from the rain, but no warmth from the stove.
We clutched a piece of freedom,
this little bread no one can steal;
No emperors nor princes nor rust nor worms,
Can take away our human will
to choose, in spite of the starless nights
and [...]
I heard song one nightBeyond the window glassA tune of curious delightPlaying among the midnight grass.The melody was hauntingly sweet,I wished to sing along,But I did not know the lyrics,Of this the angels' song.
The midnight choir narrated,A simple tale of romanceSuch as many times we've heard,The love of a woman and her man.In life's circling [...]
Through the dark night in the garden,
To the kangaroo courts
Through the abuses and scorns
To the cross
Through the darkness of the tomb
To a new morning tomorow
Through suffering and death,
To life and a whole new world
My lord and my god, my soul cries to thee!
The poem below is dedicated to Bishop Tom Wright who never fail to impress [...]
Naught gold nor diamonds,Naught sweet chocolates,Naught roses a million,Naught expensive desserts;Only words writt'n,Only promises kept,Only life giv'n,Only tears shed,Only hands held tight,Only shelter from ills,Only shared delights,Only loving you
Valentine's Day 07 - May the God who is love fills your heart.
If love is water to life,I am famished, thirsty and dry,
If love is light to night,
It has been darkness in my sky.
If love is air for breath,I am suffocating to death,
If love is bread for strength,
I am weakest of all man.
If love is sunshine bright,My life's but a gloomy sight,
If love is flower sweet,My life's [...]
What strange thing is this
That warmed my cold cold heart
That made man live and die and kiss
That intoxicate this love-lorn bard
I longed to see the morrow still yet dark
I longed into the future peep
I longed to know you, whom my heart
Dedicates now its every beat
O this peculiar feeling
That bid me now to live
That caused my songs [...]
The soft Sun this Morn
Warmd my heart and bones
And inspired these verses
Writ for you and you alone:
Lovely like a fresh new Day,
Beauty the Night compares,
Eyes like the Sun in May
Sweet the Smiles you wear.
Your Hair the silky flowing Veil
Crown from Venus stole
The Stars dost nightly hail,
The slender tow’r of your Nose.
The sacred shrine of your [...]
