实在不明白为何大马无论是电影电视都不入流。
导演天天抱怨无法遇到好剧本根本就是荒谬绝伦的借口。
因为我们的国家天天都在上演精采绝伦的剧情。如果拍成电影或是电视剧，TVB 和好莱坞都要靠边站。而且部部都可以贴上“True Story” 。
不信？看看。。。
蒙古女郎炸尸案 - 美国的CSI不用来
巴拉失踪案 –TVB 的“人间蒸发” 没得来
细历光碟案 - 香港的“偷窥无罪” 光碟无人问津
巫统党选 - 香港电影“金钱帝国” 可以打包
霹雳变天 - 香港的“无间道” 靠边站
大马阿窿的故事 - 无线的“O记实录” 闪一边
PKFZ - 可以媲美“水门事件”
赵明福之死 - 无线的“法证先锋” 小儿科
如果大马好好发展影视业的话，我们绝对可以取代香港成为“东方好莱坞” 。
因为类似的情节还在不断的上演着。一部…一部…一部…接一部……
天底下有哪一个国家的反贪污局是可以在没有warrant情况下在他人办公室进出自如的？
天底下有哪一个国家的反贪污局是可以在没有warrant情况下扣留私人财务的？
天底下有哪一个国家的反贪污局是可以让人走进去却躺着出来的？
天底下有哪一个国家的反贪污局是可以说“我什么都不知道” ？
一个疑点重重的案件，再加上死者过两天就要和女友注册结婚了。任稍有头脑的人都知道他杀的可能性最大。可是今天一翻开报纸，警方竟然说会以自杀的方向调查！
天理何在？
炸尸案可以没有主谋，现在连人也可以无缘无故死在反贪局！
如果CSI和法证先锋来马取材，收视率肯定打破记录！
到底马来西亚还有法律吗？?
回教党虽在刚结束的玛力勿莱州补选中取胜，可是却胜得非常狼狈。多数票从308大选的1352张多数票锐减到只有区区的65张多数票。对于这个成绩不能不说是预料之外。毕竟回教党在投票还没结束前就声称透过民意调查其候选人将以至少2000张多数票获胜。成绩出炉证明回教党的民意调查机构根本无法掌握民意。回教党务必检讨并找出源头为何调查会和实际民意相差那么远。毕竟民意掌握的准确度对竞选策略非常关键。
这次选举成绩所带来的涵义，基本上可以从3个层面去探讨。
首先，回巫密谈是否会在回教党内死灰复燃取决于回教党如何诠释这次的选举结果。
为什么回教党会在这个向来被视为堡垒区以及超过99%为马来选民的选区流失那么多的选票? 是否马来选民不满意回教党拒绝马来人大团结会谈所导致？是否马来选民希望发展? 还是巫统的金钱政治奏效？回教党内的亲巫统派系一定会抢诠释主导权。拒绝回巫密谈的Nik Aziz派系肯定会承受很大的压力。无论如何，Nik Aziz的威望一定会因为这次的选举而大打折扣。
其次，城市的马来选民是否已经转为支持巫统？
308大选国阵之所以惨败，最主要是因为城市的马来选民反国阵。城市的马来选民回到Kampung叫自己的家庭成员也反国阵，结果才有308大海啸。纳吉一上台，就通过EPU(Economy Planning Unit) 发出了很多很多的F级工程于马来承包商。城市的马来人也因此受惠。这会不会是城市的马来选民在这次补选中导向巫统的主要原因呢？
其三，霹雳州会不会宣布解散议会？会不会提早大选？
前一阵子就有传言说纳吉将会在玛力勿莱补选后宣布解散霹雳州议会以进行州选举。事实是否如此？我们应该很快就会知道。如果霹雳州举行选举不但可以被解读为国阵服从民意还政于民，还可以成为是否提早大选的试金石。如果还要更安全些，国阵大可制造一场混合选区的补选，看看民意是否真的归顺国阵再决定是否解散霹雳州议会也不迟。
补选成绩出炉后，纳吉表示虽然这场补选算是国阵在精神上的胜利，但绝对不能当作已经通过考验，必须谨慎行事。由此可见，纳吉是一个非常实际不会好高务远的首相。同时他也是一位可以为了选票而典当所有一切的首相。
最后，值得一提的是在补选后的第一天，大马股市创下了过去11个月以来的新高。这是否可以被解读为补选成绩受到市场的欢迎呢?

八十年代邓小平访问美国，刚出门就被一群记者拦住了，恰翻译不在，美国记者又想考考邓小平英语，就开始提问了。
第一个问题是：美国首都是哪里?
邓小平想，见面第一个问题肯定是先问姓，就用四川土话回答：我姓邓(Washington）
记者想，啊，继续问：您的夫人来了都做了什么事?
邓小平想，该问名了吧，回答：小平（shopping）
记者想，这英语可以啊，来了就购物，又接着问：您如何出行?
邓小平想，该问年纪了吧，回答：80（bus）
记者都说，这英语可以啊，不行，得问点难的不回答的，问：您认为台湾下任领导会是谁?
邓小平怎么都等不到翻译回来，不耐烦了，说：你等会（李登辉）
记者大吃一惊，这么敏感的问题也对答如流，估计翻译也该回来了，赶紧再问个：下个呢?
邓小平已经很不高兴了，说：随便啦（水扁啦）
这时候翻译已经走过来了，记者问最后一个：二十一世纪初期人类面临的最大问题是什么?
邓小平黑着脸说：啥事（SARS）
二十年后，美国记者感叹，邓小平真是一代伟人，料事如神！

Chua Says Pas-Umno Unity Talks Good For The People
PASIR PUTEH, June 20 (Bernama) -- MCA deputy president Datuk Seri Chua Soi Lek said today the proposed unity government between PAS and Umno would help stabilise the country's political situation.
He said any party could discuss the issue of unity as it would benefit the people on the whole.
"We are confident that the talks would not affect unity among the races," he told reporters here.
The idea for a unity government between PAS and Umno was mooted by PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang but was opposed by PAS spiritual leader Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat.
Chua said that the unity government was in line with the "1Malaysia" concept mooted by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.
He refuted claims that the talks would only benefit the Malays, saying he was confident that the Barisan Nasional under the leadership of Najib would continue to practice power-sharing.
"We have been a partner in the BN since the past 52 years and we are confident that Umno is aware of its responsibility to the people of Malaysia," he said.--

Chua voices anxiety over PAS’ talks on unity gov
MUAR: The unity talks between Umno and PAS will not be healthy for the country if it is aimed at forming a Malay government, deputy MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek said.
He said if the talks are aimed at setting up such a government between the two Malay parties, MCA too could hold talks with the opposition parties, including the DAP.
Speaking to reporters here, he said if Umno wanted to hold the talks with PAS, it should include other component parties in Barisan Nasional.
“I have said in Kelantan recently that if Umno and PAS hold unity talks towards forming a Malay government, then the MCA too can hold talks with the opposition, not only the DAP.
“But this would not be healthy for the country, which wants to adopt the 1Malaysia concept,” Dr Chua said after a meeting with Barisan Nasional leaders from the Muar and Bakri divisions yesterday.
Dr Chua, who is the Barisan Nasional co-ordinating committee chairman, said efforts were being carried out to regain all seats lost to the Opposition in the 12th general election.
http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2009/6/21/nation/4166241&sec=nation
Chua travelled from Kelantan to Johor then malacca on 19/6 to 21/6 as written in his blog .Looks like Chua gave different opinions on the same issue on two different occasions. And 1 month ago Chua just speculated the possibility of himself joining opposition and now he becomes the vanguard of UMNO. Bravo Chua

Many people may or may not aware that internet is undergoing quiet revolution on its own. The value and usability of internet has been elevated tremendously since the advent of WEB 2.0 .
What is WEB 2.0?
WEB 2.0 is the popular term for advance internet technology and application including blogs, wikis, RSS, and social book marking. It offers greater collaboration among internet users and other users, content providers and enterprises than WEB 1.0.
Many countries including Malaysia have benefited from the evolution where blog plays a major role in the making of 308 tsunami. Likewise, OBAMA has taken grassroots campaigning into the digital age by embrace WEB 2.0 and using it as a central platform of his presidency campaign. In fact, OBAMA turned WEB 2.0 into a major force in his campaign.
He utilizes the social network applications like FACEBOOK and MYSPACE to build his popularity among the youth and to promote his political view. In the past, American young voters might have been enthusiasm in campaigning but voter turnout has been poor. But Obama has been successfully turned around the trend by recorded the highest turnout in 40 years. Today, OBAMA has more than 1 mil contacts in facebook and myspace.
Communication has been always the key to winning. For Roosevet, it was radio. For the case of John F Kennedy, it was television. And for Barack Obama, it is social media.
And now we are seeing the next wave of revolution in web through TWITTER. Twitter-micro blogging on sms is gaining its popularity at huge momentum. Just yesterday, US government has urged Twitter to delay a planned maintenance outage because of the social blogging site’s use as a communications tool by Iranians following their disputed election.
Iran government has shut down other websites, cell phones, and newspapers. And twitter has become their communication tool to unfold the news to other people. Iranian people broadcast the news as what they seen in the rally and links to the photo taken at the scene. All of these are happening instantly via SMS and make it more difficult for the authority to control.
We anticipate Twitter to develop its influence to extend as blog does.

WHO elevated influenza pandemic alert level to 6 the highest possible alert level. Here is the definition:
Phase 6, the pandemic phase, is characterized by community level outbreaks in at least one other country in a different WHO region in addition to the criteria defined in Phase 5. Designation of this phase will indicate that a global pandemic is under way.
Click here to see the definition of Phase 5.
Based on WHO statistic, 30 000 AH1N1 confirmed cases have been reported in 74 countries. Unlike the seasonal influenza, the AH1N1 virus preferentially infects the younger people. Most of the confirmed cases have been found with people under 25 years old. However, most cases of severe and fatal infection have been in adult between ages 30 to 50 years.
WHO advises that the world now is at the start of the influenza pandemic.
The world should prepare to see further spread of cases in the near future. Countries where outbreaks have peaked should prepare for second wave of infection. Countries with no infection or few cases shall remain vigilant.
WHO will continuously in close contact with vaccines manufacturer to ensure the supply of vaccines at full capacity once they are available in months to come. No restriction on travel or borders closures is recommended.
I remember that Sir Alex Ferguson once said that 83 points are required to win the EPL title. Liverpool is now at 83 points with a game to spare but still surrendered the title to Manchester United.
Just like what Benitez said:“We have 83 points and that would have been enough to win the tile on six other occasions since the premier league started”. This shows how close Liverpool is just about to be crowned English champion again this season.
Liverpool scoring record has been fantastic this season. They score the most goals in premier league and their defensive record is at 3rd place after Chelsea and Man Utd. The playing style of Liverpool this season has been most entertaining. 4-1 victory over Man Utd, 4-4 drew with Arsenal and 5-0 thrash of Aston Villa just added evidences into it. However, 3 consecutive draws in January with Stoke City, Everton and Wigan had set the path for Man Utd to climb over them.
One of the obvious reasons that Liverpool threw the towel so early is because the team is depending too much on the duo - Gerard & Torres. As what football legend Zinedine Zidane has said Gerard is the spiritual leader to Liverpool and this is very true.
Liverpool is like a different team whenever this duo did not play. Let’s look at the statistic. Liverpool was only managed to record 2 victories without Gerard & Torres featured together. Liverpool recorded 22 victories when one of the duo or both played together, 8 out of 11 draws when one of the duo or both did not feature, and the only 2 defeats Liverpool conceded this season were during Torres’ absent.
Therefore, Liverpool needs to shake away the Gerard-Torres effect and play as a real team in coming season if they really want to challenge the title.
In doing that, Liverpool has to be cautious in any transfer activities. In the past, Liverpool has been buying top class players with significant fees. Meanwhile, Man Utd seldom buys but whenever they buy they made sure they brought in the true world class players.
Look at Robbie Keane, it was an embarrassing purchase. Liverpool sold back the player to White Hart Lane with 10 million lesser compare to its purchase price. Many players who were once very top in their games came to Liverpool only to find out they were dipping in form and eventually became an average player and finally move to a much inferior clubs. Look at what had happened to Harry Kewell, Morientes, Ciise, Robbie Keane and many more you will understand what I meant.
Liverpool’s manager Rafael Benitez has been told by the board that he will be only given 20 million pound for the transfer budget in the coming season and any extra budget must come from players selling.
It’s clear that Rafael Benitez must change his transfer policy to only buy those truly world class but not top class. Look at the impact of Fernando Torres! The quality worth of every penny spent.
Play as a team not individual or you will always walk alone!

国阵有坏人，那是路人皆知。
国阵有哪些坏人?我们大概都清楚。
国阵哪一个是坏人? 不用说我们都知道。
如果我说民联都是好人，你肯定说我天真。
但是如果我问你民联有哪些坏人，你未必马上说得上来。
如果再问你民联里哪一个是坏人，你大多数说不上来吧？
所以，如果民联有坏人；那么这个坏人绝对比国阵任何一个坏人都要坏，都要可怕。
一看上去就知道是坏人的坏人，其实并不可怕。
那些看上去不像坏人却是坏人的，比较可怕！
那些看上去像好人但却是坏人的，更可怕！
那些公认是好人其实是坏人的，最可怕！
不相信？看看许月风！
4 个月前，除了九洞人没有人认识许月风。现在的她，是无人不知无人不晓。
这个以为是好人的坏人，单凭一己之力将长城推倒。
最近更是演出了堪称奥斯卡级的演技。
刚开始时，说是钥匙扣。然后改说是pen drive.
可是当有照片为证，无法再抵赖时，她就干脆说不知道是谁的胡椒喷器也不知道如何使用。我的天啊。。。唯一的解释是，我们所有人在许月风的眼里都是白痴。
所以别以为每个民联的都是好人。如果他们坏起来，比谁都更可怕！
Leader who gains power and influence in a group because they are liked, admired, and respected are said to possess charismatic power. This charismatic power are stemming from an individual personality, physical strength, or other abilities that induce others to believe in and follow the person.
Charismatic leader always inspire awe and loyalty in their followers. These followers buy into vision of the leader and work with excitement, passion, enthusiasm toward goals set by leader.
When charismatic power is present, other powers like legitimate power, coercive power lose its significance because followers give charismatic leader the right to hold the reign of power and make the decision that define the vision and goals.
Many charismatic leaders can excite a whole group, organization or even a nation and propel it to a new height like former US president Bill Clinton and John F. Kennedy. But charismatic power can have a dark side, when followers follow the leader blindly without basic cognitive ability because they think their leader knows what is best for the people. These kind of charismatic leaders are like Adolf Hitler and Saddam Hussein.
In fact, the moment charismatic leader has the most influence is the moment when the change is the most wanted by people. Because charismatic leaders give hopes, convinces their followers with strong tune and finally transform their followers become believers. Everyone becomes the evangelist of their leader’s vision to the others.
When charismatic power is abused by a leader, who has a mistaken or evil vision, no checks or balances exist to resist the leader directive, no matter how outrageous they may be. We all knew what had happened to Germany under Hitler and IRAQ under Saddam Hussein.
Some researchers have argued that charismatic leadership is an advantage only when a formal hierarchy of authority places some checks and balances on the power of this person. Thus, only when the power of a charismatic leader is balanced by the power of 3rd party like board of committees is the leader a force for good and someone who can stir people to work together toward common goals.

No further revelation on pandemic alert level by WHO. It still remains at level 5. However, more H1N1 infection cases are confirmed by laboratory test. Additional 18 new cases confirmed by US government and piling up the number to 109 confirmed human cases in total. Fortunately, total fatality remain as one died.
There is also significant increase of H1N1 infection in Mexico where the number reaches to 97 from 26 a day before. Total fatalities increases to 12 compare to 7 a day before.
Mexico’s government has advised their citizens to stay at home to help quell the spread of the flu. All public centers like restaurant, school, subway, supermarket have been shutdown as well.
There is still no restriction on travel to these infected nation imposed by WHO but people are advised not to travel to Mexico unnecessary.
Cook pork is safe to consume however sick pig or death pig shall not human consumable.
Phase 1, no viruses circulating among animals have been reported to cause infections in humans.
Phase 2, an animal influenza virus circulating among domesticated or wild animals is known to have caused infection in humans, and is therefore considered a potential pandemic threat.
Phase 3, an animal or human-animal influenza reassortant virus has caused sporadic cases or small clusters of disease in people, but has not resulted in human-to-human transmission sufficient to sustain community-level outbreaks. Limited human-to-human transmission may occur under some circumstances, for example, when there is close contact between an infected person and an unprotected caregiver. However, limited transmission under such restricted circumstances does not indicate that the virus has gained the level of transmissibility among humans necessary to cause a pandemic.
Phase 4 is characterized by verified human-to-human transmission of an animal or human-animal influenza reassortant virus able to cause “community-level outbreaks.” The ability to cause sustained disease outbreaks in a community marks a significant upwards shift in the risk for a pandemic. Any country that suspects or has verified such an event should urgently consult with WHO so that the situation can be jointly assessed and a decision made by the affected country if implementation of a rapid pandemic containment operation is warranted. Phase 4 indicates a significant increase in risk of a pandemic but does not necessarily mean that a pandemic is a forgone conclusion.
Phase 5 is characterized by human-to-human spread of the virus into at least two countries in one WHO region. While most countries will not be affected at this stage, the declaration of Phase 5 is a strong signal that a pandemic is imminent and that the time to finalize the organization, communication, and implementation of the planned mitigation measures is short.
Phase 6, the pandemic phase, is characterized by community level outbreaks in at least one other country in a different WHO region in addition to the criteria defined in Phase 5. Designation of this phase will indicate that a global pandemic is under way.
In the late Wednesday, first swine flu fatality outside Mexico was confirmed in US. A 23-month-old child visiting from Mexido died because of swine flu. This has caused WHO to lift the pandemic alert one level up within a day (Pandemic alert on Tuesday was 4).
Nine countries have officially reported 148 cases of swine influenza A/H1N1 infection. The United States Government has reported 91 laboratory confirmed human cases, with one death. Mexico has reported 26 confirmed human cases of infection including seven deaths.
The following countries have reported laboratory confirmed cases with no deaths - Austria (1), Canada (13), Germany (3), Israel (2), New Zealand (3), Spain (4) and the United Kingdom (5).
Neither vaccine nor cure have been developed due to the complication of H1N1.
终于找到了幕尤丁发表"感恩论"的原文。仔细阅读后发现原来自己的国语是如此之烂。当年国语在SPM拿到A原来是侥幸。因为若根据幕尤丁的标准，我恐怕也得和那班记者一起回到学校重新学习马来文了！
“...walaupun kita fikir bila mereka hendak sekolah Cina dibantu, kita bantu, sepatutnya mereka membalas budi”
以我贫乏的马来文水平，我对membalas budi的理解是“报恩” 。难道错了？
“...macam tidak ada penghargaan terhadap apa yang kita lakukan.”
我对这句话的理解是指不懂得珍惜政府所做的。
如果单单只看第二段的，就如翁诗杰所言，” 感恩论” 的确不存在。可是如果两段一起理解的话那么就大大不同了。
第一段既然是指“应该报恩”，那么当第二段指“没有珍惜”时，自然就是指因为没有报恩。言下之意，不就是“感恩论” 吗？虽然我有疑问，但我也不敢讲的太大声。毕竟翁诗杰身为马华总会长，同时也是国会议员，更是交通部长，他的马来文水准自然不在话下。既然翁诗杰敢敢大声讲” 感恩论” 并不存在，自然有他的一番见解。纳闷的是，他好像并没有好好的解释他的独特见解。不然我们大可以好好的上他一课-翁诗杰的马来文课。
虽然没有机会上马来文课，但很有道德的翁诗杰今天却让大家上了一节道德教育了。据他所说，任何人想借用不存在的‘感恩论’ 借题发挥乃属政治破产的人。这我非常赞成。因为任何政治人物如果无中生有的确很可恶。可是如果真有其事，却否认其事，并将它扫进地毯下的政治人物就真的是人格破产！希望翁诗杰能够快快解释，如果连马华最敢怒敢言的都患上“否认群候症” 的话，那么就真的是。。。
突然间我想起了一句话，一句很有智慧的话。
“政治人物都是用屁股决定脑袋。因为坐在什么官位上就讲什么话”
巫统党选落幕了，纳吉终于接替了主席的位子。众所周知，巫统主席就是我国首相。虽然没有明文规定巫统主席一定是首相，但这是一贯的传统(除了巫统第一任主席Datuk Onn Jaafar之外). 吊魁的是卸任主席阿都拉并没有交代何时才将首相的职交棒于纳吉。只是表示将在这个星期四觐见国家元首端姑米占再纳阿比丁，寻求元首御准他辞职。
言下之意，纳吉能不能当首相还要看元首御不御准。虽然大家都知道，元首并没有什么实权而是象征性的像图盖章。可是阿都拉不直接了当交代职权移交的日期，而是好像耍太极般的都推给元首的确让人闻到有点鱼腥味。阿都拉到底葫芦里在卖些什么药呢？
让我大胆假设，如果阿都拉不向元首证明纳吉获得大部分的国会议员支持。那么元首只好召开紧急国会会议以进行动议, 让国会议员表态是否支持纳吉出任首相。又倘若阿都拉掌握了一定的国阵国会议员，而这班国会议员连同民联的82位国会议员足以过半，那么首相的职位恐怕就轮不到纳吉了。毕竟如果纳吉成为首相，他就成为了马来西亚有始以来最具争议性的首相了。
希望过两天元首能够带给所有马来西亚人民一个惊喜吧！
