Once again Malaysia's n-th birthday is here, which I believe to many (but not most) Malaysians like me, it's just a holiday. For the last 10 years living in Malaysia (I din't give a damn about what country I was in before 10), I'd say it's a very, very disappointing.

As a Malaysian Chinese, I have no problem living in a Muslim country like Malaysia, but I do think that the country system sucks, and it's as childish as Najib playing barbie dolls.

Unity is always one of Malaysia's top priority aim, for good relationship between all different races, there were slogans like, "No Malays, Chinese, and Indians, Just Malaysians." And my comment? Bullshit. If you want unity, why forming some unfair rules, that cause hatred between races? The most obvious one would be education, why bumiputras can get into local universities easily with bad result but non-bumiputras had to work like a cow, to secure a position for themselves? Why the so callled "short-cut school", matriculation college have a student ratio of 3 bumiputras to 1 non bumiputra?

When problems appear because of dissatisfaction of non-bumiputras to the government, who should be blamed?

Same goes to the fact that 90% of low-cost houses built must be sold to bumiputras only. I used to work in a developer's office, it's almost impossible for non-bumiputras to buy such cheap properties, unless they know someone from the government housing department, even the developers themselves are not allowed to sell these "low-mid cost houses", constructed by themselves.

The childishness continue in our politics and the politicians, first we have Badawi vs Mahathir show, then we have Najib's criminal accuse. And what's the problem with a MCA leaders got taped while having sex with another woman, does that have anything to do with politics? It's his own life, so why politicians abused the news, and corrupts the once crystal clear Malaysian politic?

With Malaysians so eager for advancement, creating modules like 1Malaysia, Multimedia Super Corridor, Wawasan 2020, Malaysia is suppose to develop alot better. As time goes, I can only see the fact that the country is failing, failing and continue to fail.

But on the other hand, bribery in the royal police force are at a point that almost every single traffic police accept bribes, and 99% of Malaysians know that they have to pay "duit kopi" to the police when caught breaching traffic laws. Sometimes we do see things like "kempen anti rasuah", but to me it's nothing but another monkey show to trick the tax-payer that they are actually doing something, something that will never work.

I do hope that one day, I can live in a clean and civilized Malaysia, and good enough to cancel my decision to migrate ASAP. Happy birthday Malaysia, Happy Merdeka guys, and most of all, enjoy your holidays!

P/S: This posts was meant to criticize, but with the intention to make Malaysia a better country, although it's obvious that most likely it won't happen. No hard feelings to bumiputra readers (if there are any :P), and if you do, I'm sorry, but this is my blog. Do comment if you agree/disagree, flames are welcomed.

It's July in the lunar calendar now, a.k.a Ghost month, where most Chinese believe that ghosts are free to wander around in human's world. So things often get abit spooky~

Well I went to dinner with my family, and there's a cat around, then my sister got stunned, she got this furryanimal-phobia, a rather serious one. Whenever cats or dogs appear in her sight, she will stop eating, start complaining, and keep watching so that they don't come to close, and if they do, she starts screaming and run. So as usual she did what I said, and we had our dinner in her screamings (Even the boss asked what is happening)

Later at midnight, I received a call from my dad, he want me to pick up my sister from her friend's place. So I went out, got into my car, and realise that I din't bring my gate remote, so I went back in and get it, just before I open the gate, I saw a cat stucked between the gate, I thought I opened the gate earlier, which I din't. I quickly opened the gate, thinking that it's nothing serious. The cat fell down as the gate opened. I walked closer to investigate, the cat is dead, with blood all over the floor.

I felt so bad because I murdered a cat, but I was in hurry, so I quickly pack it into a plastic bag and threw it away, the cat's eyes never close, I felt so bad. I really wanted to bury the cat, but there's no soil around outside my house. After flushing away the blood, I went to pick up my sister, and told her how "precise" was her timing to call me at that moment so I can avenge her, as she got frightened by another cat earlier.

When I got home, I couldn't stop thinking about it. Then I figured out something. How can a cat stucked in between my gate, if I was opening it? The gate must be closing, in order to do so. So I texted my bro, who went out earlier.

"Did you see a cat around when you left just now?"
"Yes y?"
"U close door tersempit the cat, the cat died, u wan come pay white gold?"
"I going back now"
"Nvm, I settle d"
"What you did? Wash?"
"Throw lo, where got place to bury, the cat no close eyes, sei em ngan bai"
"Not me not me, the door fault"
"U la din't see properly"
"No la, nw july, tin yi, cat did bad tings, door tai tin hang dou ny"

I din't reply after the last message, I felt so sorry for the cat, but I felt abit better that I'm not the murderer, rest in peace little cat, I'm sorry, and I'm sorry for my brother, and I would've bury you if i could. Rest in peace.

P/S: I'm an animal lover myself, and I really felt sad about this, if only my brother could check if the gate is closed nicely, the cat wouldn't die, he got gripped right in the neck, and if my brother saw it earlier and release the cat, it would've survived. Sorry.

Finally, after months and months of planning, went to Tenji already, although the original plan was Jogoya, but nevermind, because Jogoya sucked :P

Kinda sad before we went because some people ffk despite our "months and months of planning". YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE! RWARRR.. But we still decide to go ahead, although it's just 4 of us. We decide to go for lunch session 11.30am - 4pm because it's slightly cheaper, so I woke up at like 9am, pick up Kok How at TAR College then drove to Kepong to meet Loon, then parked my car at his place, followed his car to UM to get Ching Ching, woah so complicated.

We arrived abit late at 12.30pm, went into the payment counter and saw the advertisement flyer about their promotion on weekdays, costs Rm39.90++ for dinner and Rm49.90++ for lunch, and it was Saturday, WTF! We paid Rm77.00++ :(

After the payment we were led to our seats and vroom, we went to survey~ there are 6 main sections there, Japanese (Sashimi, Sushi, Mini Steamboat), Chinese, Western, Barbeque, Desert, and Beverage.

Japanese Section:










Chinese Section:








Western Section:

Barbeque Section:


Beverage Section:





Desert Section:



There were alot more types of great food in every section there, just that I could'nt post all the pictures, and also the ice cream everyone has been craving for, Haagen Dazs! 6 flavours available there. 1 more section will be opened during dinner hours, the Malay food section, but obviously we're not interested in that. More camwhoring!






Really nice food there, and guess what, I'm going again next week, cause somebody behtahan after looking at the photos, muahahahaha, go Tenji~

P/S: Went to Desa Parkcity again after sending Ching2 back to UM, had a walk in the park again, taking pictures of dogs~




Ciao.

Is it just me or what? It felt like 930290319 people around me are having their birthday in July and August, season to get poor, haha. Went to the famous 4 Happy Seasons restaurant to celebrate Chon Wai's birthday earlier. Such a shame that it's the first time that I went because I live so near, wanted to go for ages =/

As we arrived we rushed upstairs, the Winter restaurant, but it's too packed with customers, it says its 15`c in there, knowing that I still went there with shorts and sandals, LOL. No choice lor so full so we went to the Spring section, which basically have nobody, except us there.

2 words to describe all : Eat and Camwhore!
