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

Amazing lack of security in hotels

It occurs to me that by showing this video clip, it not only help hotel guests to prevent possible illegal entry into their rooms, but also helps those with criminal intent to learn how to gain entry. But hopefully, with more exposure, more people would take precautions and more would-be thieves will be deterred from the publicity. Hotel security management should also beware of people walking around with such a simple tool.



This reminds me of the simple tools used in several thefts of mobile phones in our house in PJ. This thief just needed to carry a 3-ft pvc pipe, a wooden stick of about the same length which fits into the pipe, a small piece of rubber cut from a slipper, and strong glue to be used at time of operation. The glue helps to stick the phone or wallet which can be fished out easily from an open window. So air-conditioning helps in a way to prevent such thefts.
