Vote For Your Future

I've never blogged about politics. But this time, Malaysia is in such dire state that I feel the need to do my part and do something. The pictures below show us only a small fraction of what is really happening back in Malaysia. Things that usually get censored from the mainstream media. For the past 50 years, ethnic minorities are systematically marginalised. Corruptions are daylight rampant. Billions of dollars wasted on white elephant projects. Kids infused with racial hatred; led by our examplary 'keris' wielding minister. Crime and rape cases soaring to new heights. And now, the UMNO has been openly recruiting Mat Rempits (malaysian bikie gangs) which I'm afraid going to be used to incite racial riots when time comes. More news and pictures can be found here.

The future looks bleak enough if we do not take action now. So my fellow Malaysians, do your part in this coming election and vote wisely. Deny BN their majority. Voting the opposition does not make you racist nor unpatriotic. Do not fall for the propagandas that are being used to paint the Opposition as inept, as terrorists and being violent. It has already been proven the current government is incapable and leading the country into turmoil while plundering our rich resources. Look at Australia, Japan and the US. Changing their government do them good. It's time for our own change. Give the Opposition a chance to prove their worth. We don't know if we don't try. I'd rather gamble 5 years than to risk my entire future and the future of my generations.



Birthday Song

Birthday dedication to all my friends celebrating this month, including me :P
I need all the luck for tomorrow. The P4-check!
Also happy valentine's to all.



Don't worry about that extra line
That's creeping up upon your face
It's just a part of nature's way
To say you've grown a little more
Trees have rings and thicker branches
Kids shoes get a little tighter
Every year we're getting closer to who we're gonna be
It's time to celebrate the story of how you've come to be

Happy birthday my friend
Here's to all the years we've shared together
All the fun we've had
You're such a blessing
Such a joy in my life
May the good Lord bless you
And may all your dreams come true

So light a candle on your cake
For every smile you've helped create
For every heart and every soul
You've known to grow a little more
A few more pounds, a little more grey
Don't count the years just count the way
It takes a little time to go from water into wine
Don't ever lose the wonder of the child within your eyes

Happy birthday my friend
Here's to all the years we've shared together
All the fun we've had
It's such a blessing
Such a joy in my life
May the good Lord bless you
And may all your dreams come true

CNY in Perth, V2

Today is my first year in Perth. With this posting, that also means I have missed the boat in the CNY rush to go home. There are just too many "unfortunate backdoorings" and delays that ended up in more delays to my training. As of this moment, I am currently waiting for my final P4 check and then comes the penultimate CPL/IR flight test. Although only 6 sorties away and seemed so near to completion, yet it is a far fetched dream. Now all I can hope for is to go home before the 15 days of CNY end. Yes, another mission impossible. But at least putting in hopes are better than having none.

Not all are bad down here. Just last week, we had a big CNY gathering in the college. Big salute goes to the new committee for organizing the event. We had a wonderful steamboat night with the customary chinese new year dish of "Lou Hei" or "Lou Sang". That brought back the CNY cheer, spirit and smiles to all the cadets here missing the CNY back home.
