I’m Back

It’s been awhile since my last entry in this blog. Guess I’m just being lazy but then again I kinda missed not writing and so, here I am.
.
There’s a lot of things that has happened politically especially about that guy Anuar who has won the by election at Permatang Pauh and wit that, changed the whole political scene in Malaysia. Finally the opposition has a bit more balls in the parliament and that is a good thing. The era of two third majority is over and everything seems to be on the right track. BN has to be real careful as to what their agenda is coz there’s no room for fuck ups and that is fer sure. I just cant wait to see what happen next. The show must go on.

Back in the kitchen, things were as usual. We got pretty busy for the Midsummer Feast but everything went well. Chef Kevin Cape, our new Exec Chef for YTL did the menu and it was a good learning process for the boys in the kitchen. In addition there are guest chefs (Stephen Mercer, Bobby Chin, Chef Ismail etc.) that came in to promote the event and working with them has been an eye opener and also fun for everybody.
.
So, now it is the Ramadan period and things are getting really slow at the restaurant. After lunch service, the boys started to prep dishes for breaking fast and here the creative juice started to flow. There are so many good local dishes that to eat them all in one sitting is kinda tough. I think that I may have to scrape that idea I had of losing weight during Ramadan. I’ll post some pictures pretty soon. Still hasnt dwnld da pictures in my phone and there’s a lot of dem.

Sunday, December 16th, 2007 Write a CommentInformation Minister Datuk Seri Zainuddin Maidin says the detention of five leaders of the illegal Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) is “what the people want”. “It is also the government’s determination to safeguard public order and national security. That’s what the people demand,” he added.
Memorandum by Damai Malaysia – an umbrella body comprising 395 non-governmental organisations – handed over to Badawi a memorandum criticising the illegal street rallies. Who are dis NGOs? We have no idea but what we know are that there are all related to political parties and thus shouldnt be called NGOs. The news called dem the “silent majority” that has spoken. I just call dem BARISAN NATIONAL. More on dis.
Zainuddin said: “We are aware the government’s action would be criticized by western groups through their media. We are ready to counter whatever negative reports about Malaysia. “All divisions in my ministry have been told to explain the government’s use of the ISA to both local and foreign media. We have the facts and we will disseminate them.
Oh rite..the US got da patriot act. And wht facts are you cookin up now? Regarding “explaining the government’s use of ISA to foreign media” I would suggest that u wouldn’t do it coz u know what will happen when u start to lose control during those interviews.
“I challenge the western media to practice real democracy by publishing both sides of the story and not twist them to suit their own agenda.
In US they have debates between Candidates before the election and there are also talk shows like “Meet The Press” where different parties get together and debate about stuff. I’ll be suprised if we are ever to have one coz the leaders are afraid of one on one debate. They are only good at putting out their message when there are cutting ribbons somewhere.
Since achieving Independence (Merdeka), the western media has never supported us. Whatever policies, such as the New Economic Policy, have been portrayed negatively in their reports. But still, we are so successful today (economically),” he added.
I think the world supported Pak Lah whn he was elected PM. It’s just da stupid stuff tht they don’t support. And yes, the country is more successful economically now but not everyone are pleased by the way the government is handling their job.
Zainuddin said the government rejected the concept of democracy promoted by the West, with street demonstrations being part of the democratic process.
“We will never accept this. Have the countries with frequent street demonstrations managed to achieve the prosperity and stability that we enjoy? Most of these countries are mired in conflicts or chaos,” he stressed.
US, UK and Europe doesnt have the prosperity and stability that M’sian enjoy? Hehe..you’re a riot man!! And wht concept of democracy are we are we promoting? The kind where people are guilty until proven innocent? The kind where media is controlled? Not to mention the other mess. In US, there’s a lot of demonstrations when the US decided to attack Iraq. The important thing is that the government still let the people voiced out their opinions and if the government is solid they should not fear of being criticized.
“Today’s society is more educated and will not easily accept explanations without facts. Whether we are effective in disseminating information fast will determine how fast we can build a first-class mentality society,” he said.
Your’re right man, todays society are smarter and do not take ur BS at all. Where’s ur guts man? U are smart enuff to know what is right from wrong. Ur our minister that represent us to the world. And u think that u have a first class mentality? Just google ISA and see what the intelligent and educated people think about ISA and maybe, just maybe ur conscious will tell u tht it is NOT the right thing to do.
With all due respect Datuk Seri I have to disagree wit u!
“ISA” is in da house
Friday, December 14th, 2007 Write a CommentFinally Big Brother has decided to show it’s claw by arresting five of the top Hindraf guys under the ISA . A sad day for Malaysia coz after 50 years of independence the govrnmt still has to use dis unfair treatment to the people just to shut dem up. Guess dis is wht we call democracy in M’sia. Guilty until proven innocent.
“Our generation as heir to the great estate of human rights must learn to wipe every tear from every eye and raise every human to his or her full person hood. Our common humanity transcends the oceans and all national boundaries. It binds us together in a common cause against tyranny, to act together in defense of our humanity faith and religion. Let it never we ask of anyone of us what did we do when we knew that another was oppressed.”

Hindraf- Demonstration of Discrimination
Sunday, November 25th, 2007 Write a CommentDa rakyat did it again and dis time it was the hindraf- hindus right action force tht demonstrated in KL. Wht u think of that hey Mr BADawi? Two major demonstration in two weeks..pretty good huh for ur resume? And of coz this time da FRUs and da policia are gonna go all out with their tear gasses and chemical laced water guns. Why? Because the’re hindus and do u think tht the mostly malay Policia and FRUs gonna give a shit. No way man! This is different fr the other demonstration where there’s malays, chinese and indians were involved.
And where is Sami da highwayman Vellu? Can’t wait to hear wht he’s gonna say bout all dis. I mean come on..the indian has been in da shiet for too long now and it seems like nobody really listen. There must be a reason for them demonstrating their ass out there and Mr. Vellu..ur time is out man. U’ve been up there for so long and nuttin being done to ur own race. WTF rite?
So the govrnmt decided to arrest the three leaders of hindraf before da big day under a sedition act. So predictable..and they don’t even have the original copy of the speech tht they deem seditious. Another WTF but dis is a normal thing. Big Brother showing his claws.
Me fren just called said 4 died after being hacked by the FRUs. WTF!!! Dis is gonna get BIG! (ok..it was not true…see, people can start out lots of rumors like dis)
Watch the video fr Al Jazeera

Nasty Nasri
Sunday, November 11th, 2007 Write a CommentMr Lawyer (buruk) Nasri is a true Mat Rempit. The way he acted in the parliament is enuff to show tht he is not cut to be a minister. But thn again this is the BADawi’s govrmnt, so of coz we gonna have a lot of people like him (check out da list below). The guy cant even speak English properly and probably doesn’t even kno wht da law is. Seems like he likes to make his OWN law sumtimes. Wht a d***head dis guy is. To him democracy only means tht the majority rules and thts it. To hell wit da opposition coz they r ALWAYS wrong and the ruling gorvnmt is always right. Is dis the type of people tht is supposed to be a leader for our country. A total embarrassment! At least be a gentleman..you don’t have to shout like an idiot to prove a point. I think there should be show in tv like “Meet the Press” in States where the different parties will get together over an issue and have a real debate for the people to see. Maybe thn da people got to see wht a f***up govrmnt they have.

The Big Walk- 10 Nov
Saturday, November 10th, 2007 Write a CommentThe big shot Mr BADahwi seems to get a little jitters on saturday when thousands of the rakyat get to the streets to protest against the way the election is being handle in dis country. Tho they were protesting in peace it seems like the policia and da FRUs are a bit gatal tangan with the water and tear guns. Hey what do u expect fr a democratic country like Msia rite? Obviously u cannot get a permit to do a peaceful demonstration especially when u are goin against the rule of da big brother. But big kudos to the people tht really understand as to what is goin on here, to be brave and do what a good citizen should do, which is to scream and let the so called democratic government know that they r farkin up.
The real government should b da people and da people have the right to protest and giving the memorandum to the King. Even da King is not making any fuss about the protest. Why is Big brother got all gelisah?
We r now entering the internet era and u know u cant hide anything. The gomen controlled media is s**t! You cant see nuttin about the protest on the first page for sure. This is done purposely to blind the rakyat so that all they see is how well the country is doin (at least for some people). But not for long. We da people r not tht f***** stupid.
