What would you do if you like your neighbour's land as well as your own?
Or, like this cat, taking up cosy beds meant for two?
Our older female dog has this bad of taking food meant for the younger male. Watching them, it is hard to believe the different status understood by both. Within striking distance, the younger dog would not go near the food. Sometimes, knowing that I am watching, bully would go to the other bowl to check and makes sure she is getting the better deal!
My favourite example of 'kiasuism' is when a mother tells her child not to teach his friend because he might know more and get better grades and position in class! But she did not realize that the actual process of teaching actually improves the person's understanding of the topic.
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
