In Arab culture, showing the sole of the feet symbolizes contempt or anger. Go figure with a PAIR of shoes being hurled at Mr. Bush last Sunday.

Religion Public Opera 2008
Posted in politics of politics., tagged religion on August 17, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Religion dramas or operas are so popular and trendy in Malaysia. Remember the late Klang State Assemblyman who staged his drama years ago? The scene where he took ablution got a nice close shot ala Ritchie ’s in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrel. He also staged the climax for the satisfaction of our local [...]
What I think of UMNO-PAS Muzakarah…
Posted in politics of politics., tagged pas-umno on July 24, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Muzakarah, if I may translate it into a more workable word means holding a discussion. But its not a simple academic or intellectual discussion. Muzakarah aims to reconcile and to understand both sides of the parties better. It is suppose to be an honest and open heart to heart talk with no hidden agenda or [...]

What happened during the PJ Public Protest Against Oil Price Hike recently is a bit tricky for me to come up with one dimensional stand. I am talking about the big brouhaha over a punk singer’s sexy moves that include teasing the crowd with his attempts of pulling down his pants. It’s easy for those [...]

Bala is a very scared frog. In just 24 hours, he retracted his statement regarding Najib’s involvement with Altantuya, the deceased. Now, he’s claiming that he was under duress when he signed the declaration.
First thing first. Bala should not be afraid to reveal the culprit that forced him to made the earlier statement if the [...]

We are living in a country that claims to be a Muslim country. We turn our backs to apostate, we would still don the hijab no matter how tight our cloths are and don’t even think of having a gay parade here. Dah gila?
So, Anwar, its just not a sunny day for you when your [...]
