2009 - NEW MALAYSIA.....YES WE CAN


Be understanding to your perceived enemies.

Be loyal to your friends.

Be strong enough to face the world each day.

Be weak enough to know you cannot do everything alone.

Be generous to those who need your help.

Be frugal with that you need yourself.

Be wise enough to know that you do not know everything.

Be foolish enough to believe in miracles.

Be willing to share your joys.

Be willing to share the sorrows of others.

Be a leader when you see a path others have missed.

Be a follower when you are shrouded by the mists of uncertainty.

Be first to congratulate an opponent who succeeds.

Be last to criticize a colleague who fails.

Be sure where your next step will fall, so that you will not tumble.

Be sure of your final destination, in case you are going the wrong way.

Be loving to those who love you..

Be loving to those who do not love you; they may change.

Above all,

BE YOURSELF.



WE CHANGE WHAT HAS TO BE CHANGED, YAH?


BUT ABOVE EVERYTHING

WE MUST CHANGE OURSELVES BEFORE WE CAN BE CHANGE AGENTS.

HAPPY NEW YEAR BERNARD AND ALL, I WAS ROLLING ON THE GROUND WHEN I READ THIS NST report by our minister of tourism,
KUALA LUMPUR: The proposed New Year's Eve sex party will only bring shame to the country, said Tourism Minister Datuk Seri Azalina Othman.
YEP LIKE THE SEXUAL ROMPS OF SOME UMNO LEADERS CAUGHT IN FLAGRANTE IN PD, ANOTHER UMNO POLITICIAN ALLEGEDLY, CIGAR CHOMPING, ALCOHOL DRINKING AND BUTT GRABBING, DEFINATLY A NO-NO, WHAT ABOUT THE ONE ABOUT THE ONE WHERE SOMEONE WHO PROCLAIMED HE COULD'T SPEKING ENGRAND RAN AWAY AND CURI LARI MARRIED A SULTAN'S DAUGHTER SECRETLY, WHAT ABOT THAT POLICE RAID AT A HOT SPA IN SUBANG, WHERE SOMEBDY AL-MERICAN-MAMAK WAS CAUGHT WITH HIS PANTS AROUND HIS LEGS GETTING ICE-CREAMED, YEP AZALINA WE KNOW YOU HAVE SUCH A TOUGH JOB!
She said such events would not attract tourists to the country and would do the tourism industry no favours.
ESPECIALLY WITH THE TOURISM MINISTRY, INSTEAD OF CONCENTRATING IN TOURISM LED BUSINESS, GETS INVOLVED IN DUBIOUS BUSINESS VENTURES OF PANPENA, IT-LAH,PAYING OUT TO UMI 'DE BANGKRUPT' HAFLIDA FOR NON EXISTENT FUNCTIONS, TAXI SERVICES WHERE ALL THE TAXIS HAVE BEEN REPOSSESED FOR NON PAYMENT OF INSTALLMENTS, THE TOURISM MINISTRY SEEMS TO BE INVOLVED IN ALL SORTS OF ACTIVITIES EXCEPT ACTUALLY FOCUSSING ON TOURISM MATTERS!
"Malaysia's tourism lure lies in the strength of its multiracial society.
YEP WITH THE , AHMAD ISMAILS, ZUL NOORDIN, AND UMNO SPONSERED RALLIES OF JANGAN CHABAR KAMI, JANGAN CHABAR HAK ASSASI MELAYU?
WHAT ABOUT ALL THE KERIS WAVINGS FROM UMNO? KETUANAN MELAYU?
"It is also seen as a family and shopping destination.
WITH THE SHOPS SOON TO BE CLOSING DOWN DUE TO THE NON-RECESSION AS PROCLAIMED BY THE UMNO LEAERS, WHAT SHOPPING ARE YOU TRUMPETING ABOUT?

"A sex party is against our culture and religion and if it went on, it would damage the country's reputation worldwide," she stressed.
WHAT ABOUT THE LIFESTYLES OF OUR MINISTER'S CHILDREN, TAXI-NAZRI'S SON, NEGERI ROYALTY FIGHTING AND GETTING THEIR BUTT BEATEN UP, OOPS EX-ROYALTY -FORGOT ABOUT THAT, MONGOLIAN C-4 EXPLOSIVE EXPOSEE' OF THE RICH AND RAZAK2-BAGINDAS,
NAJIB'S SONS ROMPS, APA MACAM ITU AZLINA? PREACH TO THEM BEFORE YOU PREACH TO US.
WHAT ABOUT trumped up charges of sodomy ans SWEARING ON THE AL-KORAN, that will definatly put malaysia on the world map right?

Expressing shock at the newspaper report, the tourism minister urged the relevant authorities to take immediate action to stop the party.
YES WHERE WAS JAIS WHEN JJ WAS GETTING DRUNK AND GRABBING BUTT, EVAN TILL NOW WITH THE POLICE REPORT MADE, WHY HASN'T JAIS FILED CHARGES AGAINST JJ? WHY THE DOUBLE STANDARDS??, WHEN THE ELEPHANT IN FRONT OF THE EYES OF UMNO MEMBERS OFFICIALS' ROMPS, JAIS SEEMS TO BE BLIND TO.
"There are other events organised to usher the new year which are hip, fun and suitable to our culture," she said.
YEP LIKE THE RALLY IN PENANG, TOURISTS DO ACTUALLY NEED TO SEE HOW MONKEYS BEHAVE RIGHT?
Sex parties, especially for gays, are not new in Malaysia as the authorities had busted several gatherings before.
GAYS-PENGKID, AHHHH..LINA WHICH WAY DO YOU SWING, WASN'T THERE A FARTWAH RECENTLY WHICH ALSO APPLIED TO YOU AND YOUR LIFESTYLE?
In November last year, police arrested 37 men at a gay sex party and a year later four other such parties were stopped by the authorities.
HAI YAH GOT PARTY EVERYDAYLAH, IF YOU REALLY WANT TO LOOK GO TO LORONG HAJI TAIB CAN FIND A LOT OF BAPOK THERE AND GOT CLUB IN MEDAN TUNKU, BLIND KOT?
THIS IS TOTAL HYPOCRACY OF A CRETIN,BLIND TO ONE'S OWN PARTY MEMBERS FAULT BUT ASKING OTHERS TO FOLLOW RELIGION. WHAT A BUNCH OF MORONS WE HAVE LEADING MALAYSIA.

It's because we don't have that greenish glow at the Wharf, Z.

Only the warmness emanating from within ourselves, shared without compunction.

Btw must thank you for the hilarious cutesy animal pics in your earlier posting, bro.

Cheers.

Well said. It is best when everyone starts to change for the better. Improve yourself and lead by example before talking about changing things around.

First we have the elites involved with the Mogolian model, resultung in a C4 murder. Now this......
Azalina, sex party is not in our Malaysian culture, so perhaps, you should advise Botak HM to concentrate his police to curb this sort of activity....rather than, rounding up cyclists and candle virgil participants, thus, wasting on the police resources.
If these UMNO-BN assh*les have their priority right, Malaysia will definitely be seen as a more decent and safer place to visit.

My favourite in your list: Be foolish enough to believe in miracles.

I like that. And I think I will.

Have a great 2009, Bernard!

Dear Zorro,
wishing you and the missus a happy new year and may the new year bring us peace and joy and change. Change for the better that is. Sorry we could not make it for the New Year do with you guys. I heard we missed a great party. Rest assured there will be more to come, perhaps a party to celebrate the by election win for PR in KT soon.

Peace,
Admiral Tojo
