Ijok – No Joke (Pt.1)

Ijok ain't no joke. I showed more interest in Ijok compared to Batu Talam and Machap despite the latter was contested by Chinese. It wasn't about that Chinese/DAP contested seats aren't 'hot' to be noticed, but due to the fact that Machap was chink-on-chink thing and Batu Talam was a no-name contestant versus an UMNO old-timer; I don't see anything interesting in those two as BN are not picking someone their own size. Similarly, both opposition candidates for Batu Talam and Machap are...

Pimpin’ Point (Pt.1)

I reminisce back in during the Poetic Ammo days during my college years blasting my speakers to 'Kuala Lumpur', 'Kam Sang Tah Kong Chai', 'Vallavan' and 'Peluru Puitis' imitating Yogi's beatboxing and Point's Chinaman emceeing skills that rocked the nation's hip-hop scene after a hiatus in absence. The beats are fresh and the music is mature. It was about the same time I get to know Wu-Tang Clan, and it was just right to have known them while I delve deep into the territories of rap and...

Machap Mashed-Up

It was a by election that turned ugly when several members of the opposition party was assaulted by Samy's wrecking crew. Using the party flag pole itself, they show-off superiorism by scarring the faces of their victim with their symbolic party flag. The flag itself was stained in blood was then awaiting investigation. DAP vow to use it as proof that MIC are the original suppressor and persecutor of their own race. It's another 'black-on-black' crime seems like it, and it not only happens...

Hot Dawgs 4 Hot Job

Bad news for pirates - Malaysia has recently deployed two sniffer dogs in its battle against music and movie piracy thanks to the joint effort of MDCTA (under Datuk Shafie Apdal) and MPAA (Mike Ellis). It was claimed that Malaysia has become the first country in the world to use the animals to hunt for disks of illegal recordings hidden in cargo. Two female Black Labradors, Flo and Lucky, flew specially from London to help them authorities to sniff their way into nailing those...

Tend-Cruel At-None Monster

Tengku Adnan Mansor (Tend-Cruel At-None Monster) is the latest entry in Malaysian bloggers P.E.N.O.L (Public Enemy Number One List). His claims saying that;“All bloggers are liars, they cheat people using all kinds of methods. From my understanding, out of 10,000 unemployed bloggers, 8,000 are women.” has just created an uproar thus disrupted once peaceful (again) Malaysian blogging scene. And to show solidarity with our female blogger counterparts, this is my response to that...

Pimpin’ Muar

I ain't from Muar but this hip-hopper that hails from Muar (麻坡) has certainly break the barriers of Malaysian urban music scene which was long dominated by English and Malay rappings. Though it was humourously funny, this amateurish production feats rapping with a fusion of local Malaysian Mandarin with a twist of Johorian Hokkien dialect certainly adds comedic value of this rapper and a fair portrayal of his hometown scenario where he hails from. For ya'll who dunno where Muar is, it is...

Come-playin Your Agencies

After you read this 'pun-tone', check the stats below, & if you read the Star a lot you got the Sun! I loathe the Internal Security Ministry, Their summons cost me a lot of money. I am definitely not their ideal honey, Cos I never gave them any 'coffee-money'. They're underpaid because of the Finance Ministry, So I also don't really blame them totally, But too much of 'coffee money' is bad actually, It tarnishes the image of our beloved country. When I was at school I was...

A Fugly Face & Some Atmosphere

Just stumbled across this article in The Star about this funny or should I say 'scary' looking appearance on a 'pinang' tree in Kampung Paya, near Kepala Batas in Penang. It was said that the 'face' seems to have have brought good luck to the villagers. Now the atmosphere has changed as the 'face' attracts the local public & drawn the village into a carnival-like mood as the curious public was thronging the village non-stop just to catch a glance on this strange abomination. The villagers ...

Surf porn in workplace? ^_^ Hold-up hold-up you punks, check the small print below first aight? :) 2006 was a bad year for Malaysian Customs & Excise (KDRM).

Question My Patriotism, Not? (Part 2)

Muhibbah Pays II I advanced through the ranks pretty fast. The seniors who were all Malays & a Chinese treated me so well. I became a Patrol Leader a year after that, & advanced to the 3rd most powerful rank in the Troop as the Troop Secretary 2 years after joining. During that time, my senior, me, my younger brother & 4 of his friends were the only Chinese scouters in a 60+ strong scout troop which was dominated by Malays. During my form five (17 years old), I was...
