How Lee Kuan Yew sees Malaysia in 20 years' time

The Bumiputra affirmative action policy has destroyed one generation of Malays....they dont know how to be competitive. The sad thing is that they dont realized that the longer they keep at it, in the ultimate long run....they are "killing" themselves. The day of reckoning will come and history will be re-written on how Malaysian fore-fathers failed the nation. The intent may be good, but the execution and policy has been a disaster.

How Lee Kuan Yew sees Malaysia in 20 years' time

I share LKY's view and I know this is what UMNO wants! (remember the keris waving?!) Then they can have everything and no need to share - and then they can fight among themselves!

The clear and present danger

If the Doomsday prediction never comes true, New Zealand will remain as picturesque after a hundred years, with cows and goats roaming all over the country sparsely populated by humans.

A hundred years later, Singapore 's foundation will remain rock solid. The tiny city-state will continue to lure new immigrants, and many new-generation Singaporeans will see their lineages traced back to those of migrants.

How about Malaysia a hundred years from now?

Lee Kuan Yew did not seem to see things that far. He only set his sight 20 years later.

He said all constituencies in Malaysia would be dominated by the Malays in 20 years' time, and the leadership in this country would value the Chinese population less and less.

The Chinese population would continue to slide, he added, not because of the pathetically low fertility rates among the Chinese in this country, but because those who could afford would have sent their children overseas, who would decide not to come back.

"And those migrating to Malaysia will be from Islamic states, making the country's Islamisation inclination more and more pronounced."

Statistics don't lie, and the current political and social ecosystems are not here without a reason.

MM Lee's predictions are by no means novel. But his well-thought remarks have touched the hearts of many a Malaysian.

If this is what the country should look like 20 years from now, we can imagine Chinese Malaysians to be like apes in a forest sanctuary a hundred years down the road, where we need to sharpen our eyesight to carefully scan through the entire swathe of forest before we can catch a glimpse of one or two of them.

That comparison is, most certainly, exaggerated, but I really hope we will not be reduced to a rare species by then.

The ratio of Chinese population in this country has been on steady decline over the decades; so has their political status here. Very soon, they will be completely engulfed by the powerful waves of aggressive Islamisation.

This is the pessimistic side of the outlook of their destiny.

But Chinese Malaysians cannot afford to go on this way, and wait helplessly for such a destiny to befall them.

They have to take the initiative to accentuate their own strengths and be in firm control of their own fates before they can divert such a predestination.

The next ten years will be key to the future destiny of Chinese Malaysians. If the country's policies get more and more ethnically-oriented and religiously inclined, the future of Chinese community is well within our imagination, and Chinese Malaysians will exit the country in droves.

On the other hand, if community-centric ideologies get diluted, conflicts between mainstream and minority races get thinned down, the common Malaysian identity gets consolidated, and the spirit of secularity stays very much relevant, then Chinese Malaysians will have a much more promising future here.
So will Malaysia .

Whatever happens to this country or our society, the most important element for new-generation Chinese to secure a place in this land, will be their very own competitiveness.

In this age of globalization, when national boundaries are increasingly obscured, people will find a greener pasture beyond our shores if our internal conditions remain this bleak.

We cannot afford to talk about what will happen to us a hundred years from now. We need to buck up and fight for our near-term opportunities.

Meaningless and unnecessary squabbles, like the one currently taking place within MCA, will only serve to bog down the pace of the Chinese community further, blurring their vision of the clear and present danger.

What the Chinese community urgently needs right now is high-caliber and farsighted leadership, not one engrossed with endless infighting.

3D Avatar

A very weird disease happened after 3D Avatar came to the nearest cinema to you.

A couple, after watching 3D Avatar from the nearest cinema to them, walked out hand-in-hand, and have a chit chat. Suddenly, the conversation went like this...

A: Dear (have electrifying eye contact) I see you....

B: Honey, I see you too......

For those of you who haven't watch this movie, I suggest you go watch it before you can catch this joke. Personally I think it's funny. Look at a person, and say "I see you". So weird one. If you don't see me then there must be something wrong with your eyes lor. Or you really only do have eyes for me.

Guess Avatar is a movie written by a guy. I'm not really prejudice here, but guy has the tendency of running out of words to say or express. Now, if similar situation happened but it's a lady who wrote the story, it will be more expressive, such as "I have eyes only for you" or "Others fade in comparison with you". (Example: Twilight series)

Hmmmm, now that I really think about it, maybe "I see You" is not too bad. Short and straight to the point rather than long winded and take a few more mouthful of saliva to finish saying it. Guess it's the same concept as "I love You", rather than trying to be more expressive, such as "my love for you is like the Mount Everise" or "if you and my mum fall into the river I will save you first".

....

I think there's something wrong with me. I better stop writing now or I will talk jibberish and more and more nonsense will appear. Well, it's just that it has been a while that I really do express my view or opinion in this blog because I found out that this blog is not that personalized anymore. I have to do filtering every time if I needed to blog. The freedom that use to come from blogging is not there anymore. That's why recently it has been picture and picture and pictures only...

Maybe I should consider switching to a new blog where nobody knows and treat it as my personal diary and ensure absolutely no one will ever find out.

Have you?

If you were to have 5 years left to live, what will you do?

If you were to have 3 years left to live, what will you do?

If you were to have 1 year left to live, what will you do?

If you were to have 6 months left to live, what will you do?

If you were to have 3 months left to live, what will you do?

If,

If,

If you have 1 month left to live, what will you do?

Have you fulfilled your dream? Have you gone to places where you want to go? Have you tried the food you love? Have you laughed enough? Have you smile to the person you like? Do you have regrets? Have you touches snow? Have you? Do you?

Can you be sure that when you leave this world, you leave with a smile on your face?


Live life to the fullest. Life never repeat itself......

AIDS can spread through this way?

I received a forwarded email today, and frankly speaking, I am quite shocked when I read it. The following is the content.

JANGAN BELI BUAH-BUAHAN YANG TELAH SIAP DI POTONG (DON'T BUY FRUITS THAT WAS CUT)

A 10 year old boy, had eaten pineapple about 15 days back, and fell sick, from the day he had eaten. Later when he had his health check done... doctors diagnosed that he had AIDS.. His parents couldn't believe it...

Then the entire family under went a check-up.... none of them suffered from Aids. So the doctors checked again with the boy if he had eaten out... The boy said 'yes'. He had pineapple that evening.

Immediately a group from Malaya Hospital went to the pineapple vendor to check. They found the pineapple seller had a cut on his finger while cutting the pineapple; his blood had spread into the fruit. When they had his blood checked...the guy was suffering from AIDS..... But he himself was NOT aware. Unfortunately the boy is suffering from it now. Please take care while you eat on the road side. Please forward this mail to your dear one.

2009 Resolution

Damn! I was looking through my friends' blog and then I was hit by this resolution fever. This Didi and Jen really do set very good targets.

Well, the kiasu'ness of my behaviour comes back again. Beware both of you, my so called "2009 resolution" will be even more "keng" than both of you. Haha... *evil laugh*

1. Settle my car loan. Then I can proudly answer when people ask me what is MY car model, it's Perodua MYVI.
   
2. If I still have this job, start paying for my study loan. If no, S3SCo, you can eat the mushroom that I plant when I'm jobless. It's FOC. Touch le? No need to thank me.
   
3. Must practise Yoga to annoy the Fatwa.
   
4. Lost some weight if possible? Else I think Cheryl will laugh all the way through her pregnancy.
5. If possible, try to save enough money (since everyone is doing that due to the economy). But I'm not going to save and just put there. I'm gonna buy myself something branded. Hmm... Maybe a LV? Or Couch Handbag?
   
6. Pray to God everyday so that my chubby face will grow smaller by an inch. Then no need to learn Photoshop.
   
7. Go traveling to another country. Hopefully Taiwan or Hong Kong.
8. Become an expert in farting silently..
9. Try not to let other people control my emotion.

and lastly..... the ULTIMATE resolution.....

10. Marry a MILLIONAIRE!!!!!!!!!! Yahoo!!!

Melamine

The word "melamine" became famous overnight when one of the well-trusted big company milk at China was suspected having this substance. Then it's followed that milk containing this substance can actually causes dead for baby. This phenomena really causes a big BANG when it's finally published widely in the press.

Melamine definition as quoted from Wikipedia

"Melamine is an organic base and a trimer of cyanamide, with a 1,3,5-triazine skeleton. Like cyanamide, it contains 66% nitrogen by mass and, if mixed with resins, has fire retardant properties due to its release of nitrogen gas when burned or charred, and has several other industrial uses."

Now, anything containing Melamine is strictly "ban" from displaying at the counter in every supermarket. How odd it is when I went shopping with my grandma at Boulevard and found this...

Melamine WARE?!

No play-play.... M.E.L.A.M.I.N.E. No spelling mistake. On display right in the middle for all customer to see.

Wondering what is it?

I wonder if anyone is going to buy it...
