2 days to go...

"Umno is willing to risk lives and bathe in blood in defence of race and religion. Don’t play with fire. If they mess with our rights, we will mess with theirs."
The time has come for Umno members to act firmly against those who openly question Malay special privileges, said an Umno delegate today.

Hasnoor Sidang Hussein, a delegate from Melaka, stressed that it was not just the duty of Umno members but also of all Malays to protect their interests.

He added that the party and Malays should not be passive and defensive towards groups who question the Malay special privileges.
.

Talk about meritocracy! So the official malaysian government line is that Malays have a 'right' to privileges as indicated in theirconstitution so that the Malays do not get left behind by the more industrious 'other races', i.e. chinese.
The fact that they see this as a right to such priviledges is beyond me. It simply means that most Malay's in key positions or businesses probably got there due to their racial links rather than due to their competency or skill! What are they so afraid of? To compete in an open market on equal footing with everyone else? This is probably the main reason Malaysia continually gets left behind in the exhaust smoke of their little southern neighbou. Incompetent buffoons control everything and seem incapable to get themselves out of the mess they find themselves in. Thank God tyou have Petronas,otherwise you guys would not have a foot to stand on.
But more worryingly is the call to arms and 'to risk lives and bathe in blood in defence of race and religion.' What kind of world are we living in that someone would defend such priviledges,even to the extent of inflicting physical harm upon those that oppose such an opinion? Sounds so Hitler like. And we know what happened then.

On an obliquely related note, My poor hammie San got hurt in a big fight with his brother. Poor fella has only 3 legs to start off with. He can hardly defend himself in a straight fight. Now this had to happen. Hope he gets well soon. He will always have a special place in my heart. He is a real fighter and I hope he pulls through this ordeal. He sustained rather vicious head injuries. His right eye is bulging out and you can hardly see his left one. I am sure it is not as bad as it looks but still, my heart goes out to the poor fella. He just huddles in the corner of his cage, and does not seem to be eating or drinking.

Yesterday Agnes and I spent some time together before I set off for my Israel trip. Before that I had to go down to Finlayson Green to collect a cheque, so was delayed a bit. Then I went to pick my dear up. We took a long drive to Orchard Lido, to watch Flushed Away. We also did some window shopping and had lunch at Food Republic at Wisma. The movie was not bad. The slugs were hilarious!

After that we wandered around aimlessly. I took a long drive that took us to Holland Road...Clementi Road.... Bukit Timah Road...Woodlands Road.... SLE....Lentor Avenue...Yio Chu Kang Road...
And then I decided enough was enough and headed back to my place. Was the best decision I made. At least there we could rest and chat. I rather do that than go shopping or visit some touristy place under the circumstances. We napped a bit, before catching some TV. We ordered in KFC delivery. Then lazed around in bed till it was time to go home. All in all a good day.
