The World That I See - My View

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 29 (Bernama) -- Deputy Information Minister Datuk Seri Chia Kwang Chye today said some irresponsible elements are out to tarnish the reputation of Education Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein via a short message service (SMS) purportedly sent out by Bernama, the Malaysian National News Agency, yesterday. "The Education Minister did not make such a statement nor did Bernama send out such an SMS," he said in a statement issued here today. The SMS purportedly quoted Hishammuddin talking about Indian and Chinese voter support. Chia advised the people not to be misled by the SMS. A spokesman from Hishammuddin's office said the Umno Youth chief also did not make any public statement yesterday. He said his office would ask the authorities to identify the source of the malicious SMS. -- BERNAMA http://www.bernama.com/bernama/v3/news.php?id=299403 But I have a Question: Why not Hishammuddin make a statement? And I am sure people will by default believe ...

KUALA LUMPUR: A businessman has lodged a police report against web portal Malaysia Today and its owner Raja Petra Kamaruddin for an article in the site which he alleged could cause disunity. Noor Hisham Yusoh, 33, lodged the report at the Brickfields police station at about 7.30pm yesterday accompanied by seven other friends urging the authorities to carry out investigations into the article. He said the article headlined “What the eye does not see ( http://www.malaysia-today.net/nuc2006/index.php?itemid=326 )” by Raja Petra had elements of instigation. “As a Malaysian citizen, I think that his accusations are serious and can convince a lot of people in Malaysia that the country is not peaceful anymore,” he said, adding that the article could make the situation worse. Noor Hisham from Bukit Subang said he decided to lodge the report after having a discussion with his friends who agreed that the article could cause disunity in the country. “We are living in a very prosperous country and...

PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Examinations Syndicate (MES) will adjust marks accordingly for the Chemistry 2 paper of the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination. MES director Datuk Mohammed Zakaria Mohd Noor said a “printing error” had caused confusion. “Students should not worry about losing any marks as we will make the necessary adjustments so they will not be disadvantaged,” he said when contacted. The Star had received many queries on the possible errors in the paper. Mohammed Zakaria said the operations room had received many calls from teachers and students. Students sat for the two-and-a-half hour subjective paper last Thursday. He had also said last week that the MES would adjust students’ marks in the Chemistry 1 paper due to the possible errors. A total of 439,255 students are sitting for the SPM ("O" Levels), which started on Nov 12 and ends on Dec 6. The Education Ministry ‘s operations room contact numbers for problems related to the SPM are 03-8889 3551/3520...

Keep out, Nazri tells Tamil Nadu By ZULKIFLI ABD RAHMAN KUALA LUMPUR: Stay out of the controversy involving the Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) – that’s the stern message for Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi. Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz, who rebuked Karunanidhi for interfering, said what happened here had “nothing to do with Tamil Nadu.” ”Do not meddle in our affairs. This is Malaysia, not Tamil Nadu ... lay off,” he told reporters at the Parliament lobby yesterday, when asked about wire reports that Karunanidhi had written to Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh urging him to take immediate and appropriate action to end the “sufferings and bad treatment” of Tamils in Malaysia. Nazri said he would not apologise for calling those who participated in the Hindraf rally on Sunday “penyangak” (thugs), stressing that the demonstrators had violated the law as no permit was issued. He explained that it was illogical to assume that Prime Ministe...

I really hope all will respect each other and love each other and we don't see such thing again in Malaysia. We are of not of this culture (as some said) but surely we have to see what changed them rather then to challenge them at this point. Address any issue in the beginning and deliver the needs of any community as Malaysian and as Human with values....we are a Human first! For the leaders and the people look at "what mistake I have done for this to happen" (positively) before starting to point fingers at another.........! Negara Ku, Tanah Tumpahnya Darah KU....Whatever it can be this is my country and I am of this soil....what ever I comment is intended to bring positive changes and addressing something that I see that can be changed or to be made known.... KERANA MU MALAYSIA!

CHENNAI: MDMK General Secretary Vaiko on Tuesday requested Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to take immediate steps through diplomatic channels to protect ethnic Indians in Malaysia. In a letter to Dr Singh, a copy of which was circulated to the media here, he said the Malaysian authorities had used police force against ethnic Indians, mostly Tamils, when they took out a peaceful rally on November 25. "Making up some eight per cent of Malaysia's population, Indians are historically underprivileged, compared to other ethnic groups and have long felt discriminated." "More than 90 per cent of ethnic Indians in Malaysia are Tamils. They have contributed to bring economic prosperity in Malaysia, shedding their sweat of labour all these years. But they have been discriminated in education, jobs and business opportunities by Malaysian authorities," he added. Stating that the reported statement of the Malaysian Prime Minister against the peaceful rally was "disturbing...

If you want JOY, play with a child If you want to see LOVE, look at a child If you want to see PEACE, look at a child If you want to see GOD, LOVE unconditionally every child

Does love has an END? Or love is an END? What a question........ A love is an energy once it vibrates beyond the emotional body, no it has no end. But also yes it felt as ended once you are in infinite/absolute. "its only YOU in my life" ........ "I found in YOU MY ENDLESS LOVE"

SEPANG, Thurs: AirAsia Bhd is keen to operate and develop the Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport at Subang via private financing initiative (PFI) and make it more business driven and competitive regionally. AirAsia chief executive officer Datuk Tony Fernandes said today the company is prepared to table a fresh proposal to the government seeking its permission to operate the airport. When asked for his reaction should the government allow this, he said:“Definitely AirAsia will be prepared for that (to operate the Subang Airport via PFI).“You have PFI roads, PFI power stations as well as many infrastructure projects, why not the airport,” he told reporters after the company’s annual general meeting here.Personally, he said, it will be a good idea for the government to allow AirAsia to go into Subang Airport so that subsequently the no-frills airline will address on its own all matters related to the operation and infrastructure of the airport. AirAsia had, among others, suggested that it too...

It said the organisers of the rally, the Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf), was a front for the opposition.Disciplinary action would be taken against party members participating in the event, which had been widely covered in Tamil dailies.MIC secretary-general Datuk Dr S.

The organisers plan to present 100,000 signatures in a petition to Queen Elizabeth II for a Queen's Counsel to represent the Indian community in a representative action filed on Aug 30 in the United Kingdom seeking STG4 trillion (RM27.7 trillion) in compensation for the community from the British government.

After many year of flying with MAS (will change to SIA because of the "generally" poor service) for the first I had a real experience. About 40 mins after take off on 12th Nov 2007, I asked for something to drink. The stewardess said they have stopped providing food / beverages as we are returning to KL, reason being "smoke in the cargo". Ten minutes later the Captain announced it. It took a longer time to land, I guess they were circling over the KLIA to be given clearance to land. Upon landing the pilot "pull over" to the side and shuts the engine..... You can see the flappers are not normalised and the engine was turned off. We waited in the aircraft for about 1hr 30 mins During the 90 mins the fire brigade went in with their breathing apparatus and other fire fighting stuffs (you can see in the picture) Later they declared there was noting wrong But towed us to the bay and said they will change the aircraft and the boarding time was 2pm. But they t...
