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

More clocks collected

Since our French clock bought at Spittersfield Market in London last year, Alex bought an English Smith clock which we brought back this year for repair. My brother-in-law and wife came on a visit from Australia, saw it and liked the Westminster chime so much that they decided to take it back to Sydney.

Alex got to know that his sister had given them permission to take the clock back, decided to go to the car boots sale with Beng. My wife got a shock when she saw the five clocks shown on Beng's website and got excited about the new acquisitions but was disappointed that only one belongs to her! However, she is happy that the one which Beng bought is another Smith with Westminster chime.
