Higher fuel prices a burden to you even if you do not own motor vehicles

Higher fuel prices a burden to you even if you do not own motor vehicles

Starting from midnight tonight, Malaysians will be paying RM RM2.70 and RM2.58 for a litre of petrol and diesel respectively. That is a 40% for petrol and 64% increase each for diesel. The government is proud to say that the money saved from the reduction in the subsidy is returned back to the people via the RM625 per year cash rebate for cars and RM150 for motorbikes.
According to Khoo Kay Peng, independent political analyst:
The RM625 rebate is definitely insufficient. That’s only worth about three months of fuel and we’re talking about a 60 percent increase of fuel hike. …read more

In memory of Allahyarham Rustam Sani

In memory of Allahyarham Rustam Sani

I was quite shocked to learn about Rustam Sani’s demise through Nuraina’s 3540 Jalan Sudin. Although I have never met this great man, I, and I believe many of you as well, have certainly not missed to read many of his thought-provoking articles in his blog, Suara Rakyat, which centered mostly around socio-political scenarios in Malaysia. Coincidently, his last post in his blog was titled: Trust is dead – but miracle is still as alive as hope itself. Rustam Sani is dead but his thoughts and spirits will remain alive with us for a long time to come, if …read more

Malaysia Boleh: Stolen cow squeezed into a car

I was having mixed-feeling when I saw this photo in Berita Harian…. amazed, amused and disbelief at the extent to which thieves would do in their chosen profession.
This is definitely a world class Malaysia Boleh feat never attempted anywhere else in the entire universe… but the idiots who had attempted this shameful act shoud be tied to a post and let attacked by the same cow he has stolen… or better still .. dress them just like the matador but in red color and let them have some fun with a couple fighting bulls inside a ring….still tied up to …read more

Special memo to Pak Lah

Special memo to Pak Lah

A group of disgruntled young Malaysians, known as Bertindak Anak Muda Malaysia, led by Badrul Hisham Shaharin decided to send a different kind of memo to the Prime Pimister Pak Lah… and sure enough it is ‘different’. Pak Lah could well be the only Prime Minister in the entire United Nations ever presented with this kind of memo by the citizens.
It may look like a desparate measure by this group of youths but then, special problem requires a special solution….
