Pekeliling

Pekeliling Flats or better known as Tunku Abdul Rahman Flats was the second high-rise apartment building in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia after Suleiman Courts. It was built in 1964. The 11 blocks of the flats were located on Jalan Pekeliling (now Jalan Tun Razak) and Jalan Pahang. On 2008(but till now it;s still there), this flats will be demolished to make way for development. It will mark an end an era when public housing resembled matchboxes in which 10 people sometimes lived in a room. -from wikipedia.

the roadside Mamak.

Mamak a term that refer to Tamil Muslims in Malaysia or a Tamil term for maternal uncle or 'maa-ma'(taken from wikipedia). Today it's about a stall operate by them near my university. This stall has been a constant companion to me during those boring lectures, tutorials and long exam hours. Food is cheap, beverages are tasty, what else you need?
I have to say no other eatery has this much cultural significance in Malaysia, maybe the other being the KopiTiam.
this post is for you girl. =P

50 to 80 to 15

Dell Studio 15

Nikon D80 DSLR

sold my 1st ever Camera and got myself a 2nd hand Nikon D80. Got myself a Dell Studio 15 laptop too. So far, enjoying both toys a lot.

So we have a new cabinet for Malaysia, that supposed to be leaner, cleaner, better and blah blah blah....

what i think? Maybe Mr. Prime Minister forgot that these ministers were mostly part of the previous government that failed to deliver on it's reform promises and so on. A group of ministers that ''cakap tak serupa bikin". Not only that, we have for the first time the most political rejects/losers in the cabinet, Losing the 2008 general election but still entering the cabinet via backdoors.
Leaner? its just 2 personnel less than the last one if i got my facts right. Meaner maybe.
At the end of the day, what you do with your position it will be judge.

Elizbeth Wong, state assemblyperson for Bukit Lanjan and Selangor executive councillor is back. Hope everything works out for her.

yawnn
Malaysian politics...

memories supposed to fade...

King's of the Hills...

loser at the Batang. Pakatan Rakyat won both Bukit seats. Bukit Selambau with 15 candidates contesting, S. Manikumar from PKR won with a majority of 2,403. Bukit Gantang, MB turn MP Nizar Jamaluddin from PAS won with a bigger margin than last election with a majority of 2,789. Batang Ai, BN won with a majority of 1,854. This is a good result for Malaysia which proves the Rakyat's acceptance of the new two-party political system. So Pakatan where is the shadow cabinet?

So what been BN people been saying about the lost?
"You must understand, this is not our seat and not our state, we did not lose our own seat. So to look at it in such a defeated manner... I am not prepared to do that," Umno vice-president Hishamuddin Hussein said.

"They do not want to hear promises of change but they want to experience real change" MCA president Ong Tee Keat said. (oh..so you actually understand. =P)

Umno deputy president Muhyiddin Yassin insisted that the by-elections are not a referendum of Najib Abdul Razak's premiership as he has just taken over the office.

"Maybe the people have a feel-good factor relating to Najib's premiership, but they have yet to absorb the good feelings." (absorb?)

Just a day before the tri-elections, there were so sure of winning. They think by lifting the ban on some newspapers and realeaseing 13 ISA detainees people will vote for them? In the first place why ban the newspapers? why detain people under ISA?and they are still quite alot of people in ISA. What about the rest?

It seems to me a politcal party is like a brand now, perception and experience is important. Promises just dont work anymore. So what if your brand promises to be the best? if it's percieve as a bluff, if the experience of using that brand is crap...bye bye brand. Even Sales Promotion nowadays dont work, like daggling Money and Development fund infront of the people. People perceive that Pakatan is better and cleaner, experience it to be real and authentic. so here you go...still King's of the Hills.

the goal is unclear

so who watches over the watchmen?
