"Hurt - Johnny Cash" I hurt myself today To see if I still feel I focus on the pain The only thing that's real The needle tears a hole

Once upon a time, two close friends and their families lived as neighbours in a quiet suburb in Selangor. Their only children were a boy and a girl respectively. As dotting parents, they showered their full measure of love upon their children. Naturally, the two kids spent a lot of time playing with each other. As time went by, they grew up; they went to the same kindergarten, school and even

Every teenager goes through a phase in life when they think that their parents have only one objective: to make our lives miserable. And friends were our only source of support and self-affirmation. I too went through that period of disillusionment. But now I know, that’s utter rubbish. "Friends come and go for various reasons but family stays with you forever", my uncle told me once. This

Yo, what’s up…It’s been a long break for studies and exams. Just could not find the time to type out the articles, though it has already been written. However, many significant happenings occurred which I’ll try to write about in the coming days. First and foremost, the annual budget for 2004. A rather mundane budget with no significant surprise for any sector of the economy. Even the

Hey!!! Read about the latest headline news to flood our country? Which one? I’m referring to the changes in the MCA (Malaysian Chinese Association) leadership. Well, to the ‘kataks’ among us, the MCA president, Datuk Seri Dr. Ling Liong Sik and the vice-president Dato’ Seri Lim Ah Lek recently resigned from their respective posts. In addition to that, Dr. Ling also sent in his resignation letter

Ahhh…Meritocracy…A wonderful utopian idea that has been bandied around by the government recently but never implemented…Wait a minute, I got it wrong? It has already been used for the past two intakes of university students? Students are picked solely based on their academic proficiency. Nothing more, nothing less. Oh really? Are we really so ignorant to believe that? I don’t think so. Consider

How many of you actually heard about SARS in November 2002?December 2002?January 2003?Did you all know that the outbreak actually began in China in November of last year? Of course the Chinese swept everything under the carpet, fatally wrong in assuming that the world won’t find out and that the epidemic will just taper off. Little would they have expected that in a few months later it would turn

The war in Iraq is over. Duh!!! That’s just a gross under-statement of the obvious. Anyway, judging from the protests made before the US-led campaign against Iraq, I was proud to see Malaysians of all ages and races actually coming together to make a forceful stand against the war. However when images of these very people holding portraits of Saddam Hussein and shouting his name during the peace
