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

Animal farm... a stoli with a twist...

Dreaming of raising thoroughbreds, a Chinese farmer invests all his savings into buying one that became very ill within a month.

He brings in the best vet he could afford to examine the horse and is told, “He has been infected with a very dangerous virus. Here is the medicine you need to give him twice daily. I will be back in 3 days – if he is still unable to walk at that stage he will have to be put down.”

This was overheard by a piglet that shared the stables with the horse. Alarmed with this news, little pig went to the horse and pleaded with him: “My friend, please try to get up!”

Day 2 – no change... piglet kept on pleading with the horse: “Please get up or they will kill you!”

Day 3 – farmer administered the medicine but the horse is still on the ground.

Vet examined the horse and walking out of the stables sadly said: “There is no choice – or the other animals could get ill.”

Piglet having heard that raced over to the horse saying: “GET UP NOW! The vet is on his way. It is NOW or NEVER!”

Gathering all his strength the horse stood up and raced out of the stables.

Farmer started jumping for joy and yelled out to the farm hands: “This is a miracle! This has to be celebrated properly!”


What have we learned here?

Always mind your own business and don't meddle into things that do not involve you!
