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

Government fed by the people

Problems with living near a secondary school

I have just told off a group of students, believed to be from SMK Sultan Yusuf, Batu Gajah because it is the nearest. Just moments ago, I heard sounds of broken glasses and I had to come out and tell them to think before breaking bottles on the road outside our house. Just days ago, I had to pick up pieces of a broken beer bottle.

I tried to mind my own business even though sometimes I felt I should do something about different groups of students who would hang out, smoking and chatting even during school hours. I know it is a no win situation because students are known to be really troublesome but I would draw a line as far as broken pieces of glass is concerned. Sigh.
