Election is coming - are you registered??

We all have lamented about corruptions and dirty politics. It's time to use those power we have to make a change.

Enough is enough. Time to vote for a change.

It is saddening to hear from my colleagues whom have missed out multiple elections votings, because they don't care. Retards as such are the cause of our cuntry state as it is.

Register to vote and make your voice heard!

Indifference Citizens

My last post about two and half months ago. My last effort to make a difference since to come to a sad fade. Have I myself turned into an indifference citizen? With recent hoohah with the Negarakuku music video by namewee, i have no more doubts on the theory that, malaysia as a country is in such a state because more than half the population don't care shit about politics, good governance and accoutability. Most people will take what's feeded to them on newspaper as god-given truth, and what's the government edict as god-given laws. Back to the negarakuku song for example, i have realised that a lot of people has made a judgement or conclusion even before they read the lyric or listen to the song. well, here's the lyric, translated, courtesy of namewee himself:

NegarakuNegarakukuNegaraku
NegarakukuNegarakuNegarakuku

我爱我的国家 有国才有家
Aku cinta Negara aku ada Negara baru ada keluarga
有家才有我 站在这边跟你
Ada keluarga baru ada aku berdiri disini
大声唱歌 你麦惊
Nyanyi dengan engkau engkau jangan takut
虽然我每次骂粗话
Walaupun aku selalu cakap kasar
我的歌 就像榴莲一样
Lagu aku sama macam durian
硬硬尖尖 只是
Keras dan tajam tetapi
看你敢不敢打开 看看里面的真相
Tengok engkau berani buka ke tidak tengok apa yang ada di dalam
它可以很臭 也可以很香
Dia boleh dikatakan busuk dia juga boleh dikatakan wangi
只是看你又怎样的鼻抗
cuma tengok engkau ada macam mana punya hidung

我们的警察 叫做MATA
Polis kita panggil ‘mata’ (dlm bhs hokkien)
因为他们的眼睛很亮
Ini kerana mata mereka sangat tajam
新年一到 他们就很努力
Apabila raya mereka akan jadi rajin
拿住笔可是很会少跟你开单
Pen di tangan tetapi jarang bagi saman
因为他们口很渴 需要喝茶
Ini keran mereka dahaga mereka mahu minum teh
还有KOPI O 要不要加糖
Ataupun kopi O nak tambah gula ke tidak
如果加糖 他嘴巴会甜甜跟你微笑
Kalau tambah gula mulut mereka akan senyum dengan engkau
你要离开的时候
Apabila engkau nak pergi
他还会跟你TATA
Dia akan ucap TATA (maksudnye bye)

NegarakuTanah tumpahnya darahkuRakyat hidupBersatu dan maju

这种现象 不需要改善
Gejala ini tidak perlu memperbaikikan
也不用加强 警民合作
Tidak perlu memperkuatkan kerjasama antara pihak polis dan rakyat

至少不会回家收到三万
Sekurang-kurangnya balik rumah tidak akan dapat saman
我爸爸一定赌懒
Ayah mesti geram

怎么办 这次西北够力
Macam mana kali ini memang teruk
没有车 我要怎样出去玩
Tak de kereta macam mana aku nak keluar main
没有车 我要怎样打野战
Tak de kereta macam mana aku nak XXX
没有车 我要怎样看阿瓜
Tak de kereta macam mana aku nak tengok ah kua
这个国家 我很喜欢
Negara ini aku memang suka
早上五点pukul 5 pagi
还有morning call会叫我起床
Ada morning call akan suruh aku bangun
有时几间一起唱
Kadang-kadang beberapa ‘buah’ nyanyi sama-sama
听起来好像情歌对唱
macam tengah duet lagu cinta
声音坳来坳去像唱R&B一样
Suara tinggi rendah macam tengah nyanyi R&B
虽然他们有时唱到走声
Walaupun kadang kala sebahagian daripada mereka out of tune
虽然他们有时还会唱到破声
Walaupun kadang kala sebahagian daripada mereka pecah suara
有些声音像公鸡 可是比公鸡早起床
Ada juga suara yang macam kokokan ayam tetapi dia bangun lagi awal dari ayam
这样我们才会知道准备上课上班
Macam ini baru kite tahu mase untuk bersiap ke sekolah dan kerja

不要怪 政府只会照顾土族
Jangan salahkan kerajaan hanya akan jaga rakyat tertentu
不要怪 我们没有受到公平照顾
Jangan salahkan kami tidak dapat jagaan yang adil
这样才能证明我们华人不怕吃苦
Macam ini baru boleh menunjukkan yang orang cina tidak takut menderita
这样才能训练我们逆境寻找出路
Macam ini baru boleh melatih kita mencari jalan keluar apabila menghadapi kesusahan
不要邹德他们的标准 很奇怪
Jangan mengatakan standard ini sangat pelik
因为这样反而表现我们 很厉害
Kerana dengan ini baru menunjukkan kami sangat teror
没有被宠坏的小孩 才不会依赖
Anak-anak yang tidak dimanja baru akan menjadi tabah
不然你看有人到现在 还没有断奶
ada orang sampai sekarang masih belum berhenti minum susu

Kadang-kalag kuih pun mereka ambil keluar
他吃他的娘惹kuih
Dia makan nyonya kuih dia
你的队继续排
Dan engkau sambung beratur
就算你真的骂臭lelai也不要紧
Walaupun engkau nak marah pun tak pe
因为旁边的guard他在做梦
Kerana guard kat tepi pun tengah bermimpi
他不会鸟你的啦
Dia takkan layan engkau
他们把头包起来 慢慢走慢慢过马路
Mereka yang memakai tudung perlahan-lahan melintas jalan
你驾车经过还要小小让路
Engkau yang memandu kenalah berhati-hati
最终要活得开心 最重要活得舒服
Asalkan hidup dengan gembira asalkan hidup dengan selesa
不要学华人一样
Jangan macam orang cina
整天忙忙碌碌 西北辛苦
Tiap-tiap hari sibuk sangat susah
这个精神我们真的不能不佩服
Semangat ini mesti kita kena kagumi
因为这个就是他们生活的态度
Kerana ini adalah sikap hidup mereka
(态度 态度)
Sikap sikap

这首歌我都在讲好话
Aku bercakap baik-baik dalam lagu ini
相信你们赌懒我的人现在一定很喜欢
Aku percaya orang yang tak suka dengan aku mesti sangat suka
世界很和平 很有希望
Dunia aman baru ada harapan
没有人受伤 也没有很乱
Tidak ada orang cedera dan tidak tak tersusun
你很高贵 你很高雅
Engkau suci engkau sopan
大便很香 不会骂粗话

他要我们到处跑 出国自己找希望
Dia nak kami pergi merata-rata tempat pergi oversea mencari impian
然后学习东西回来报答国家
Lepas itu balik negara membalas jasa

Two Types of Heroes

Type A: Fireman who saves the day by risking his life and stopping an explosion in a petrol station in NZ, claims that "I am not a hero". What impresses me the most is when he said the following:

However, Burford said he did not feel a hero, despite his actions. "I'm not. It's just my job. I have been in the job for 37 years, and that is what I get paid for."

Let's compare him to the 2nd type of Heroes : Type B: Mat Rempits turned national heroes, by jumping off an all-expense paid holiday skydiving trip at north pole . When these youngster returned to malaysia, they were given cash rewards, job opportunities and training and "heroes welcome".

Lain rasa, lain rupa
Lain bangsa, lain cerita.

Malaysia Boleh!

the death of PPS?

PPS, or Project Petaling Street was the first blogtal (blog portal, where members can post/ping their lastest posting) for Malaysians and by Malaysians. Appeared roughly at the same time as Technorati, the world biggest blogtal , PPS is certainly one of the cornerstone in Malaysia cyber history. Well, history aside, more recently, I observed some sad and gradual developments of PPS.

Firstly, due to its non-profit nature, all its administrators are rather busy with their own private life and career. Unlike Technorati where its founders are paid in millions, the founders of PPS (a bunch of them) are not paid by anyone. In fact, few years back, when PPS requires a new server, donations have to be called in. Unsurprisingly, the Malaysian government never chips in when it should. Hence, PPS has not been developed or monitored well in recent months. Random spamming and commercial advertising pings are not removed. THe recent layout change was rejected (due to poor design etc).

Secondly, as mentioned before, is the prevalence of commercial postings by various "professional bloggers". As more and more Malaysians join the bandwagon of posting for a living (few hours work a day and money coming in streams...siapa tak nak!), learning from the successful trials by various established bloggers, most of them would fully utilize the availablity of free advertising on PPS. who wouldn't?

Consequently, more established bloggers are slowly disassociating themselves from PPS. Bloggers such as Jeff Ooi, Kenny Sia, and even xiaxue, started off by pinging PPS. Jeff used to have a special link bar on the side. Well, those were the days. With gradual decline of useful content pinging, and the decline of growth of bloggers, PPS will only see its way out to obscurity. Unfortunate end-of-shelf life for such a great idea.

Malaysians cannot have healthy discussion

purely because we re not capable of doing so. Perhaps we are narrow minded, perhaps we value "harmony and peace" a little too much. It's not a wonder that our government further exploits these weaknesses by various laws to silent our dissent.

Why do I make sure a generalized claim?

Ask yourself, when is the last time you (a Malaysian) have a healthy open discussion/debate about anything sensitive? When is the last time we can have a discussion in which one side might concede and says, "yes, you are correct and i was wrong. thanks for informing me?"? or when is the last time us as a nation has an open discussion about taboo issues (islamic state? sex? abortion? racial politic?), as most of the "discussion on these issues" have been polemic one-sided talk during political ceramahs.

No. Us malaysians are just not capable of doing any healthy discussion. For an example how a rational discussion can go into an emotional argument, check out this short post at Education Malaysia's UK vs US: A Different Perspective
