Been a freaking long while since i even got time to sit still to check my personal emails let alone update my forsaken blog. Like the title says, time really flies when you have truck loads of shit to clean up in the office. Just managed to complete 2 con-current projects in my office with a third one still in the process and to be completed by next week pending the final updates.
Imagine having to treat ya house like a hotel, spending just 8 hours at home while the rest of the day is spent in the office slogging it out to migrate over 50 work-stations and notebooks to a new domain sever and email domain. Been a hellish 2 weeks for me in terms of having no social life or what-so-ever. Hardly even managed to watch any tv when i get back home the past couple of days, usually after 12 or 1 am.
Been working like a mad-man and am a walking zombie. 5 hours of sleep ain't cutting it and i am seriously burned out. Well, thats the boring update on me since i went AWOL (again) from blogsphere the past 3 weeks.
That being said, was still happy with the fact that my footie team in red - LFC is doing bloody well to give the hated "you know who" a run for their money. The last 3 results have been absolutely brilliant. 5-0 against Real and 1-4 against "you know who" certainly help me keep a cool head in an already crazy fortnight. Left work last night to arrive home in time to watch another brilliant game against Villa and see us give them a thorough thumping - 5-0. Well, seems like all my frustration and worry about the season has vanish.... well most of it anyway in the space of just 3 games. Football is a crazy business and the ball is round, so ya just dunno whats gonna happen until the season truly ends and the fat lady sings.
Till then, it's back to slogging it out with my notebook again until end of the month when i'll be truly free and relaxed.

What's left of this land?
What's left of this land?
Where the security forces intimidate and abuse,
Where the security forces take sides,
Where one is guilty until proven other wise,
Where the security forces are political pawns.
What's left of this land?
Where money and power will set you free,
Where serious crimes are like a movie,
Where political misuse of power is rampant,
Where honour has a price.
What's left of this land?
When the rule of law is missing,
When the corrupted are ruling,
When rules are bent and broken for personal gain,
When the very people entrusted to judge are questionable.
What's left of this land?
When royalty take sides,
When the voices of the people is nothing,
When tyrants are running the show,
When the citizens are ignored.
What's left of this land?
Where promises of prosperity, freedom and justice once prevail,
Where bad apples are trying to divide us,
Where law and constitution are turning into a playground,
Where honour is but a distant memory.
What's left of this land?
Where i had great dreams of,
Where i wanted to see become great,
Where time is fast running out,
Where we're all turning into a joke.
What's left of this land?
How can we be free?
When can justice prevail?
Where is our hopes and dreams?
Who can answer me?
Where the security forces intimidate and abuse,
Where the security forces take sides,
Where one is guilty until proven other wise,
Where the security forces are political pawns.

A Comedy Titled Boleh Land.
As if we're not pre-occupied enough with our struggle to fight the economic recession, some power brokers are busy engaging in under-handed politicking. First was the case of the 3 frogs, followed by the undemocratic (unconstitutional) removal of the Perak state government, a Kedah politician's resignation due to constant harassment and finally 2 days ago - the public humiliation of a tireless and hard working Selangor exco-woman.
I am really getting tired of all the political bollocks that's been going on in Boleh Land. What's the price of a politician's soul, integrity and honour? RM50 mil? What's the reward for working hard toward a better Malaysia for everyone? Public humiliation? I truly fear for the future of Malaysia and the road our supposedly "wise" leaders are taking us to.
It's unfortunate that all the hard work done since the last election 11 months ago by PR governments are getting torn down brick-by-brick right before our very eyes. The latest ugly incident involving the state exco-woman truly shows how dirty politics can get in Boleh Land. Power and greed preside over righteousness. Makes you wonder how the events that unfolded are timed so perfectly one after the other doesn't it?
The perpetrator of the whole scandal and the scum-bag that took / expose the pictures better be prepared to face severe backlash from the public. We're not 3 year old kids that will been spoon fed with the propagandas anymore. I really do hope the shenanigans that's been hogging the limelight will rally and move the apathetic younger Malaysians into doing something before it's too late. Sitting around quietly to wait your faith will NEVER be the solution to all our problem. We need to decided our destiny as a nation and as one united people with our own bare hands, not by the invisible hands of the corrupted powers to be.
Elizabeth Wong, it's unfortunate that you won't be able to finish what you started back in March '08. But let it be known what you strive to achieve will be continued on by your fellow PR colleagues. The Malaysian public will continue to support your struggles irregardless of how much "they" try to discredit and humiliate you. Scandal or not, the RAKYAT will not relinquish the fight to make Malaysia into a land where justice, equality and rule of law will prevail.

Ultimate Betrayal & Insult!!!!
I am so angered and disappointed with all the developments in my home state - Perak. I voted for better governance and more transparency in the PR. Ultimately my vote got betrayed and my intelligence insulted by greed, self-importance and petty differences.
Didn't sleep well at all last night as i was really saddened by all this political circus. Now i can feel how my dad felt when he used to be a campaign worker for another DAP ADUN that jumped in his younger days.
Remember the 4 faces of the "frogs" the could well have effectively killed the democratic creed - a government of the people, by the people and for the people, in Perak. I hope your consciences will come back to haunt you. How can you sleep at night knowing that you have broken the trust of your voters? What the people have given you can also be taken back my the people - your actual boss.
Hee Yit Foong, you've turned your back on the very people that have transformed you from a normal clerk into a Deputy State Speaker all in the name of fame, fortune, power and greed. Have you not read President John F. Kennedy's inaugral speech where he said "ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country." Why are you too blinded by all your greed and petty differences with the senior party members? Why waste your 22 years of sacrifices when change is finally coming? I am trully dumbfolded by news that you complained about not getting an exco position and the new Camry car.
What you do now echoes in eternity. Remember who is boss.
**It's official - no by election, nor a dissolved state assembly. Sultan sides with the corrupt to form new government not mandated by the people of Perak. Democracy is dead as far as i am concerned.

WTF is going on in Perak?
As i'm typing this, all Perakians might be cursing all the political turmoil that's been going on the past 3 weeks. Apparently the state assembly will be dissolved later today after 3 frogs decided to take the bait to jump over to the corrupt - or rather tried to cover their arses by turning independent.
Those 3 who were elected as the PR representatives are a fooking disgrace. You're already voted to be in power, so fooking accept the mandate from the people to lead the state government. The 2 PKR exco members are "not" clean hence with their pending corruption case. I'm not surprised with all their drama to divert attention from their court date.
I'm most dissapointed with report stating that Deputy Speaker and Jelapang ADUN Hee Yit Foong - 22 years DAP veteran, had resigned from the party and rumoured to be jumping to the other camp (more like a bunch of 'satay' politician and 'yes' man party). Guess the old saying - money talks and bull shit walks is absolutely true in the Malaysian politics scene.
I'm looking forward to going back to my hometown to show the fogs and the corrupt who is boss and i really do hope them frogs will loose their seats - BADLY. Fook you frogs

New Year, New Beginning!
Been a while since i updated me blog. Was having the end-year rush madness in the office and was pretty much spent by the time i cleaned up all my last minute rush jobs. By then got hit by the laziness bug and that made me leave my humble little space in blogsphere unattended for 3 weeks. Hehehehe sorry about that. The holiday season always make me lazy.
Spent me Christmas day at home doing nothing but cillin' and sleepin' (as usual). I did attend an early X'mas bbq at me friend's place in USJ a couple of days before that. He just came back from Aussie. Managed to metup with a few of my school mates from Setiawan at the bbq. The funny thing is, me friend actually married my school mate. Hence it became sort of an unofficial gathering for all those from A.C.S Sitiawan.
Give and take a week later, it was New Year's Eve at another party / pot luck at another friend's place in Ampang. Was hoping to catch some of the fireworks live since i was in KL but unfortunately, i couldn't see nuts thanks to some high rise condos blocking the view.
Well, this January will be a pretty special month as we will be celebrating 2 new years, the second being the Chinese one. With the uncertain economic downturn, it'll be a rather quiet one for me. Already got my "13th month" salary and it's already long gone. Used 'em all up to pay off my "hutang" to me banks already.
That's about all that has happened since my "Harry Houdini" act from the blogsphere. Will try my level best to keep me blog update. If ya wanna know what's my new year resolution, it pretty simple - Get A Life! That's a wrap.
