I am no fan of airport security checks. And this is just a prelude to the security checks in US of A. However, it is more professionally done albeit less polite.
I can’t help but feel molested at ever security check points. And that is two thus far. Am at the boarding area.
Had to search around [...]

I pray that the emergency services would be professional this time around. May God have mercy on the victims of the flood.

The Protest against Toll by Coalition of Toll Protest ended peacefully at roughly 5.20pm.
The weather was great, the crowd was happening, the organisation could be better. Anyway, in such fluid and volatile (police threats all around) situation it was consider successful.
There were a few demo junkie who tried to take to the streets (literally). The [...]
Update : Ok, I made another huge bloopers AGAIN. The calculation below is wrong, so was the first one. The (2xTV) is there as they take 6 months traffic in TV. And toll amounts collected (TA) is for the relevant year. This is what happens when writing with a tired mind. For accountability and transparency [...]
Update : I made a mistake. The correct compensation formula explanation.
Looks like BN have got them self very lousy lawyers cum negotiator for contracts. I wonder how they could ever negotiate with Singaporean counterparts over the water issues.
I think the Lee’s Dynasty is laughing all the way to the bank. Not that they need the [...]

Welcome to Malaysia!
Visit Malaysia 2007, only if you match the racial and religious profile. If you do not fit into the desired profile, please stay away, or else risk being treated as a criminal.
As a Malaysian I am embarrassed by such avoidable incidents. These also highlight the lawlessness amongst the law enforcers in the country. [...]
Dear MCMC (especially Adeline Iskandar),
It is rather unfortunate to have such a “Commission” to oversee such a vital “commodity” of the country. Referring to your (idiotic) comments made via The Star:
I think you should advice instruct TM NUT to get secondary and even tertiary Internet backbones or risking loosing its ISP license (yeah am dreaming). [...]
Just came back from watch night service as a closing to year 2006 and starting of year 2007.
Ending and starting at where it matters.
As 2006 wind down/up and the outlook of 2007, I was holding a very pessimistic outlook.
To ALL Malaysians who have been victimised and oppressed (knowingly or unknowingly) by the regime called Barisan [...]
