How should we judge a government?

In Malaysia, if you don't watch television or read newspapers, you are uninformed; but if you do, you are misinformed!

"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X

Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain

Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham

"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan

Illogical logic or logical illogic

Razak Baginda said Najib does not know Alantuya… How? ‘Because I know!’

“So what on earth was he trying to do with his statement? You see, one can also swear to his God that he knows if someone is involved, but he can never be sure if that someone is not involved.
Why did he come out now and say something this? He had made the whole case smell even more so fishy now.” – Society Manner


This reminded me of how the AG said there are only three suspects…because ‘he knows’?

Some examples of our latest:

No sincerity on offers:
12am to 7am for 10% discount on Plus highway.

Free electricity for those whose monthly bills are less than Rm20! In other words, only vacant houses are eligible!

It pays to procrastinate:
50% discount on summons for those who did not pay within the time given.

Lucky draws for those who did not pay assessments within the stipulated period.

How to inconvenience the majority of the people:

EPF option for reduction of contribution from 11% to 8% but instead of those who want to opt for it to fill a form, those who do not, have to!

Because of a few cases of cars, which are found to have been joined from half-cuts, all the rest of the car owners had to have their vehicles inspected by Puspakom before the transfer could be done! Most people complained that the inspectors were rough in pulling down the rubber linings round the sill of car doors that they had to get professionals to put them back.

Because of a few unscrupulous company directors, all the others have to attend compulsory courses. There were a few cases of people standing in for others!
