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

Emergency steps to take when trapped in a lift

I wonder what others would think of the following advice. 'Choy! Choy! Choy!' some Cantonese might say. It is easy to think under normal circumstances but I am not too sure when caught in an emergency. But if you have noticed all the lift buttons pressed, you would know that someone had similar information, someone played some pranks, or someone who played safe each time he or she took the lift!

What to do when you are trapped in a lift?

We never know when and where accidents will happen to us OR people around us.

Read on and hope this piece of information may help any of us when things do happen to ourselves, our friends and our loved ones.

One day, while in a lift, it suddenly broke down and it was falling from level 13 at a fast speed . Fortunately, I remembered watching a TV program that taught you must quickly press all the buttons for all the levels .. Finally, the lift stopped at the 5th level.

When you are facing life and death situations, whatever decisions or actions you make decides your survival...

If you are caught in a lift breakdown, first thought in mind may be 'waiting to die'....

But after reading below, things will definitely be different the next time you are caught in a lift.

First – Quickly press all the different levels of buttons in the lift.

Second – Hold on tight to the handle (if there is any).

Third – Lean your back and head against the wall forming a straight line.

Fourth – Bend your knees

When the lift falls, you will not know when it will hit the ground, and it may result in whole body bone fracture.

The reasons for each of the points above are as follows:

Point 1 – When the emergency electricity supply is activated it will stop the lift from falling further.

Point 2 – It is to support your position and prevent you from falling or getting hurt when you lost your balance.

Point 3 – Leaning against the wall is to use it as a support for your back/spine as protection.

Point 4 – Ligament is a flexible, connective tissue. It can be attached to the bone part of the activities, but limit the scope of their activities in order to avoid injury. Thus, the impact of fractured bones will be minimised from the severe pressure during fall.
