Life is a Highway.......just remembered this tune and used to croon while driving down to my birthplace or while perching on a hilltop somewhere within Bukit Antarabangsa. That was way before all the massive development that are in existence. Could see the whole of KL, without the KLCC, KL Tower etc of course! That was before I left this blessed country to be an undergraduate somewhere half-way across the globe.
Things changed subsequently (and apparently) when things got on the fast track and everybody was being jumpy or pushy. Suddenly everybody became rodents trying to get away with any cheese available. Wow! What change that was. Couldn't comprehend and adapt that fast...especially after having enjoyed the 3 years in a sleepy-hollow cowboy town in a southern state in the land of the free. Those years gone by.
Now, in a seemingly new place and became a corporate climber (again??!!!), my whole ballgame took a twist. Now, a caretaker of an expressway, though in a different mode, I suddenly recalled the song which I normally croon to. Come in a full circle perhaps?

Support for Bloggers
This is too much. Minister is trying to block all blogs that criticise his program. If you are right, then just report the matter to MACC....which is still not done yet. Let's stop this nonsense!

Merdeka 53!
What a big relief to get another day of break from the rat race. We had Nuzul Quran holiday last Friday for the Selangorians and other states "yang sewaktu dengannya". A break from the monotonous life of the salaried man world. I have been complaining about my current status ever since I'm back into the rat race. You know the drill....from the self-employed life to a report-to-somebody, 9-5, stuck-in-a-traffic jam life. Anyway, that is the thick of it for the aspiring entrepreneur when he is too dependent on the economic situation to breathe O2 into his business. Maybe I have to quit complaining and embrace the wrath of God that is put unto me. "Sabar itu separuh dari Iman".
What can I say about Malaysia Independence celebration. For a start, why should we have Merdeka parade every Merdeka celebration? Is it really a requirement or is it something the f**king Mat Sallehs cook up for us? Think about it. Are we really independent? So much for the celebration, even in Ramadhan, the armed forces and the background singers have to do their gigs. Although it is done indoor (now parade can be done in indoor stadiums, you know), do we actually need a parade or something? How much did the Federal Government spend on this parade stuff? Isn't it better that the allocation is put into better things like giving alms to the poor and in need?
On to this Namewee. To me, he is just another shitstirrer who happens to like shit and that is why anything that comes out from his mouth is just pure shit and crap. Don't waste out time on this idiot monkey. If the Chinese support him, that is just too bad....meaning the supporters also have crappy brain. Hello AG! You got nothing to do ah!
Let's focus on the economy. This is the thing that put me in my present spot. Not complaining though. Remember, I will embrace gracefully. What has the Federal Government done to roll our economy to accumulate greater revenues, dividends etc? Hey, the people need these okay, especially for the aspiring entrepreneurs like me. We may not depend on government jobs but we need the economy to spur some domestic business for us to dwell in. Otherwise, we may have to depend on careers in the public or private sectors and these will not translate well in the domestic economy front. The stupids and the bebals in UMNO are already flying high and if anything happens to Malaysia, they are the first ones to eject out of the country.....leaving the pure Malaysians behind and strategise the new Malaysia. We cannot depend on the politicians whether they are in BN or PR. Both are numbskulls. One is led by a no-balls kow-tow-to-the-wife and the other is led by a jew-lover, ass-humping, snake-tongue talker. Are we really economy independent?
I guess not. If the US sneezes, Asians will get the 'flu and if the Asian sneezes, US will get the high fever. We need to come up with a strategy where Malaysia can be independent economically, thus we need to churn our domestic activities. Secondly, we need to reduce our dependency to foreign workers. Total independent may not be achievable as Malaysians are more learned and won't go for low-paying jobs. But what about our students in higher learning institutions? The Ministry of Higher Education should allow our students to take part time jobs as to supplement their fees and other necessities. At least we can reduce the student become GRO problems.
Be seeing ya soon!

Absentia in Dementia
Really don't know what it means but just to tell you that I have been missing from my blog for quite awhile now. From my OWN blog!
A lot of things have surfaced throughout the first half of the year. Mainly politics and the government administrative bodies. To think that the same people who were supposed to govern policies to eradicate and avoid criminal acts are the ones who commit the wrongdoings.
On politics, I am still waiting for our PM to reshuffle his cabinet....maybe he is still busy re-arranging his wardrobe....maybe to put few more "peti besi" (safe box) in his domain due to several GLCs have lost money. Maybe the ex-PMs are also involved in this but may not be in the same cohort.
Malaysian economy is going for another surprise as the second financial tsunami is on the way to Asia, particularly South East Asian countries. How, property bubble in China is going to explode somewhat similar to US sub-prime crisis. However, Chinese government may circumvent this by continuous capital control in terms of its currency speculation and foreign exchange. As long China can maintain and sustain its trade surplus, FDIs will continue to pour.
An email just in today to inform that Malaysian government, specifically the ministers and prime minister represent the 3 types of idiots i.e. bodoh, bangang and bahlul.
Bodoh: proposed building a new parliament house at Putrajaya at a cost of RM800 million
Bangang: construction cost of new king's palace escalated from RM400 million to RM810 million
Bahlul: Government has insufficient funds to provide scholarship to students.
No relation to the above, my business has gone from small to zilch. Many thanks to the current economic condition and the haywire management of GLCs and the state funds by the 3 idiots. I am at a crossroads whether to join a private-limited company owned by a billionaire or join a private-limited company owned by a foreign millionaire. Yet to see what the millionaire will offer. The billionaire plc offered 42% from my current salary as remuneration while the millionaire has in principle agreed to give 63% of my current salary. Barring other incentives, perks and benefits, millionaire plc's offer is better. But then again, the terms have not been mutually agreed and put on paper. Just hope that the best is yet to come.
Padan muka aku!

Year 2010
It's been a while since my last posting. Well, happy new year and happy chinese new year. Talking about CNY, there were few people who told me that the economy will kickstart after the festive season. I really don't care whether it's before or after as our business situation in Malaysia has paced to the speed of snail and those who have been relying on government's spoon-feeding are getting desperate.
The victor is always the one with no backing and great entrepreneurial spirit. Yeah right! We are cracking our heads now to ride the storm and trying to make opportunities in this troubled time. Physically and mentally, you have to be prepared for the worst.
But hey, our government has just announced that the Malaysian economy grew at 4% as of December 2009. OK!? Let's see what the tide can bring us this time around.
