Where should I start? I don’t really know. I’m not very sure.
Our politicians are treating us like punching bags. We are receiving blows after blows, damaging us inside out to the point we are either half dead, paralysed and unable to respond or become immune to the situation that we no longer have any sense of feeling. We no longer care. We get disheartened.
Not all of us are fighters. Not many of us would fight back. Interestingly, many would just sit there or lie down obediently to receive these punches, citing the lack of resources to fight on equal ground as their reason.
Our politicians are bunch of sickos! Be it from Barisan Nincompoops or Pakatan Rakyat, they are the same, just the level or masochism differs. The pain they would inflict on us still hurt the same way.

Maths and Science back to Bahasa Malaysia (fuck you The Star, at the main page you put this title, but in the inside you changed it to a politically uptight title “It is Bahasa again but more emphasis will be placed on learning English“. Do you need to put that BUT in the title? Lapdog!)
PUTRAJAYA: The Government has decided to reverse the Teaching of Mathematics and Science in English policy and revert to Bahasa Malaysia in national schools and Chinese and Tamil in vernacular schools.
1st of all, fuck you Muhyiddin and other politicians alike.
Stop toying with our children. Pros or cons of this ‘new’ policy aside, what the hell politicians like you that knows shit about education and the hardship of the people at the receiving end, keep changing something of such importance, paramount to the development and the future of our younger generation like changing diapers? Fuck you.
Quote:
Based on studies conducted in 2008, he said, the ministry found that only a small percentage of teachers fully used English to teach the two subjects.
“On average, the percentage of those using English during Mathematics and Science periods was around 53% to 58%,” he said, adding that only a small number of teachers were proficient.
That is because every time the government make a new policy, it is done hastily without proper preparation and studies! Why the fuck these teachers don’t teach the subjects in English when they are tasked to do so?
You fucking idiot, only a small numbers of teachers were proficient because they received lousy, substandard education that didn’t put strong emphasize in English when they were studying! That is why we have only 19.2% of secondary teachers and 9.96% of primary teachers were sufficiently proficient in English. Ain’t that pathetic?
I have to agree with the old grandmaster when he said,
“But it’s the Government’s responsibility to train and supply capable teachers. I’m confident that our teachers will be able to study and teach in English.”
I have written about this before, the actual problem is not the medium language used for teaching but quality of the teachers we have in my previous English or Bahasa Melayu for Science and Maths? where I opinionated for the implementation to be improved and not a complete U-turn of the policy.
Quote:
“But, since we already walked down the lane for the past 5 years, let’s keep it that way and stop flip flopping. it will do no good, this flip flop policies. Be firm. Bahasa Melayu or English? Stick with one.
That said, I am against the decision to gamble our students’ future again by changing it back to Bahasa Melayu. Keep using English as medium for Science and Maths. Just make necessary improvements to the current system. Making an U-turn and start again with a totally new policy, is a waste of time and stupid. Gradual changes to the continuing policies is acceptable, but abrupt change of policies should be avoided.“
And here we are, wasting our time and energy again for the sake of political survival? And hey! Don’t you love the timing of this policy announcement? At the dawn of a by election – Manik Urai! Just dig the archives, I bet tons of new policies were announced during elections.
So save it, Muhyiddin. We don’t buy your crap about ‘the reason for the reversal in policy was due to objective considerations and not political ones.’ Why the need for you to stress this if it’s not relevant?
While I agree the proficiency and mastery of English language has nothing to do with learning it in Science and Mathematics, these two subjects – especially Science – rely heavily for information widely available in the medium of English. And fuck it, this country is just not ready to teach Science in English when it only translates all science terms directly (and lamely) from English or making senseless new word.
How are you going to translate those technical terms? I experienced first hand the difficulties to switch from Bahasa Melayu to English when I was in university, where most of the good reference books are in English. Bahasa Melayu technical books are basically just rip off of the original books. The lecturers would ask their students to refer to journals and references, which are written in English anyway.
Not to mention it would take YEARS to write/translate all the books on Science and Maths in Bahasa Melayu. After that the books would be obsolete. Every day, there is new research, explorations, new inventions and other introduced through hundreds of research papers. Do we have the right resources to interpret these materials into Bahasa Melayu? I am afraid not.
A pass in English is not necessary but with the latest change of policy the government would put more ‘efforts’ into improving the standard of the language as reflected in the headline ‘.. more emphasis would be placed on learning English’ so you don’t have to worry about declining standard of English among students nowadays. Trust the government to do the right thing, even when we are not happy with its decision!
Let’s move to bashing the hypocrites. I remember when Mahathir made the policy change to use English as the medium to teach Science and Mathematics, we also have such hoo haa hoo haa like now. And without fail, some kaki bodek fuckers would come out to LOUDLY lend their support, singing praises and glory – “Oh, it’s a wise move. We support bla bla we-love-to-kiss-smelly-asses la la la.” These lalang fuckers are the same people that are singing a different tune now.
Political groups welcome move to revert
PUTRAJAYA: Political groups have welcomed the move to revert the teaching of Mathematics and Science to Bahasa Malaysia.
I don’t have to name the political groups. Without reading the article, just by looking at the title I am sure MCA – Mou Chuntoi Association is one of them and yes, I was right. Dickless pussies. (Yeah, that term doesn’t make perfect sense). Note that you can always find perfect irony in their statements, just like what I posted on George Chan yesterday.
MCA information and communications bureau chief Lee Wei Kiat said the Government’s decision was in line with Unesco’s finding that students could learn the two subjects better in their mother tongue.
“For the past six years, many students were affected by the teaching of the two subjects in English and could not catch up.
“This announcement will ensure that our students are competitive in both subjects,” he said.
Lee said the Government’s policy change in 2003 was “a lesson to learn.”
“Many reports have shown that the Government was not prepared to implement such a policy. Because of that, we have lost so much money.
“Therefore, we hope the Government will thoroughly think over proposals for new policies to avoid making such mistakes,” he said.
Competitive in both subjects by learning it in Bahasa Melayu, Mandarin and Tamil. Right!
Samyvellu (MIC is Samyvellu, Samyvellu is MIC) of course would never miss out to give his opinion by consistently saying something stupid. Note the part where he said something about performance of students will improve WITH this decision (change to Bahasa Melayu) then “want more to be done to enhance the use of English in schools.”
MIC president Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu said MIC agreed with the Cabinet decision.
He said the Tamil Schools Headmasters Council has asked for both subjects to be taught in Tamil.
“Lets hope the performance of students will improve with this decision. We want more to be done to enhance the use of English in schools,” he said.
Hey, Hishammuddin Hussein was saying something? Wasn’t he the one that come up with pretty statistics every time UPSR and PMR results were announced during his tenure as the Education Minister? He claimed cows and pigs to show the standards of English, Science and Mathematics are getting better each and every year? Of course he was serving a different master back then.
Umno vice-president Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein was confident that a majority of the people would understand the Government’s decision if they looked at the reasons behind the move.
Hishammuddin, who was the former Education Minister, said it was impossible for the Government to expect everyone to receive the decision well.
“It is not a knee-jerk reaction as a result of political pressure,” he told a press conference here yesterday.
He said the ministry started to study the effects of teaching the two subjects in English during his time as Education Minister.
“We have been looking into the grouses raised for many months and even years,” he said.
Just google for the statistics released for the results of both subjects in public examinations – UPSR and PMR and you can be sure that this buggers is a pathological liar!
Still on hypocrites. While these buggers yapping about patriotism, Bahasa Melayu, mother tongue languages, national and vernacular schools and throwing every justifications they could think of, their children continue to get the best education possible, worth every money spent. The poor and under priviledged will continue to slug it in schools using the medium of instruction which the government had ‘objectively’ considered for them.
Ironically, what our politicians think is good for our students doesn’t seem to be good enough for them. To where our politicians sent their children to? Najib sent his kids to an International School and I am sure that school doesn’t use Bahasa Melayu in their teaching.
I quote a paragraph written by Farish A Noor in his Facebook Notes to illustrate this point.
Quote:
Secondly, one is struck by the most obvious observation that this policy has set back the process of development for scores of poor Malaysian children from every ethnic community, many of whom will remain in vernacular schools while the sons and daughters of the rich and powerful (many of them the brats of politicians, mind you) will probably be sent abroad to study in places like the United Kingdom, United States of America and Australia; where the medium of instruction will be in English. With one bold stroke, we have effectively opened a chasm between the rich and the poor, the privileged and the under-privileged, and in effect created two social classes. One made up of the poor lumpen proletariats who will be reduced to the status of surplus labour in the years to come, and another class of rich, well-connected, foreign-educated Malaysian elites whose cosmopolitan outlook and enhanced educational background will make them global citizens who can and probably will find their fortunes anywhere in the world. What a gift that we have given to the poor children of this country!
Our politicians never take us seriously. To add salt to the wound, some of us never bother to take things serious and dismiss all these as socio-political junks, allowing these ruthless nincompoops running amok with our lives. Or perhaps, it’s just me.
Maybe I should learn not to take thing seriously. It is a known fact that paying too much attention on the socio-political issues in this country is hazardous. You are susceptible to brain damage. You may get stroke or heart attack because of the rising blood pressure. Ah, talking about blood pressure, when I did my medical check up early of this month before I went for the Basic Offshore Safety and Sea Survival course, the BP reading is 140/90. That is considerably high for a young brat like me. I couldn’t find any reason to justify the high reading but now I think it may have to do with me eat, breath and shit too much political craps.
I need to read and write something happy. Or smoke something to make me happy. I’ll be back when I am happier. Take care guys, don’t let the nincompoops bring you down.
ps: NH, nah I blogged about it. Where’s yours?
pss: It’s Bahasa Melayu or Bahasa Malaysia? Fuck, can’t even get this right. Read the Constitution, idiots!
Mou Chuntoi – No balls
lalang – green, tall weeds.
kaki bodek – bootlicker, ass kisser, balls carrier.

I am out of fire lately. I really do not know what to write. Bashing the government again? They are beaten to a pulp, so no point keep doing so. Let them dig their own grave and we bury them easy.
To be honest I am quite sick of Malaysian politics now. Same old story. Up to this day, BN still yet to wake up from their slumber and like usual, putting the blame on anyone but BN for their lose in recent election. One month after election, BN especially Umno appears to be still groping, unsure of what exactly has hit them.
Umno especially, never learn from their mistakes. One veteran politician in Umno obvious still living in the past and denial when he invokes the fear of “loosing political control to non-Malays”. He theorises that Penang, Perak and Selangor are already under non-Malay control. He arrives at this conclusion by numerically adding the non-Malays in PKR to those in DAP in the respective state governments.
This narrow interpretation of racial power is both illogical and unhelpful in forging racial integration. Malaysians are sick of racial politics! Especially it is twisted to benefit certain elite group in the society and hence many Malaysians reject the concept by BN where each ethnic must vote for a representative from the ethnic itself in order to have a ‘balanced’ representation in the government and decision making. Chinese – MCA, Indian – MIC and Malay – Umno. From what we see up to now, BN still in denial and clueless of what made nearly 50% of Malaysians voted against them.
This is some interesting statistics for Malaysia’s General Election 2008 if you do not already read it.
1. BN’s share of the popular vote in the peninsula actually dipped below the 50 per cent mark. The BN received just 49.8 per cent of the popular votes cast. For the whole country, the BN bagged 51.5 per cent of votes cast as more than 60 per cent of the residents of Sabah and Sarawak opted for its component parties. On the other hand, more than than 60 per cent of voters in KL and Penang voted for the Opposition’s parliamentary candidates.
2. More than half of the Malaysian population (52 per cent) live in areas where the Opposition triumphed – the five states under Opposition rule plus the Federal Territory of KL, which the Opposition swept as well. These areas accounted for 63 per cent of the total ballots issued.
3. These areas also account for 47 per cent of the bumiputera population. If only the ethnic Malays are considered, then 57 per cent of the Malay population now live in these Opposition areas. In addition, almost three quarters of Indian Malaysians reside in these areas.
4. In terms of economic wealth, these states account for 56 per cent of the country’s GDP. (Calculations based on figures obtained from the Mid-term Review of the Eigth Malaysia Plan.)
5. The Opposition-held areas include three of the wealthiest regions (in terms of per capita income) – KL, Selangor and Penang (though it must be noted that income disparities are wide) – and the two poorest states, Kelantan and Kedah.”
BN is sunk due to atrocious mismanagement of the country, not due to the Internet or what ever shits. It is not about Chinese votes, Indian votes, Malay votes, protest votes, bloggers, Internet but BN incompetence itself. No one is a bigger enemy to you but yourself. Idiots never learn I must say. Well, let them be.
On the not very encouraging reports of Pakatan Rakyat especially their bickering in Perak, Selangor and Penang over the representations in the new government these people must understand we voted for them not because Indians want an Indian exco to represent them and protect their interest, and Chinese vice versa. We voted for them to take care of all Malaysians regardless of race and religion.
So those who still think along the racial representation can F-off or join Barisan Nasional. We do not care and we never want these kind of leaders anymore. Anyway, I think it is fair enough to give 100 days to the new governments of Pakatan Rakyat in the five states to do whatever they need to do, spring cleaning, settle what ever problems they may have and start judging them later.
This is a freaking funny article by TV Smith.

bongkersz : Retards, have no mercy for them.
The hottest issue in the blogosphere and Malaysia (maybe the whole world) is ‘Math genius who turned life to vice’. Many blogs I went to blogged about it. Even in Facebook, there is a group created to ’save’ her – Misi Selamatkan Sufiah! We also have politicians to embark on a mission to ‘guide her to to right path’ (Ha! Ha! Ha! Funny shiet!) I quote :
“Zahid Hamidi, the minister in the Prime Minister’s Department, said that they are interested to assist Ms Yusof to return to the right path through the “Save Sufiah Program.”
As usual, our government being not very smart up there, squealed to the opportunity to play ‘good guy’ without even thinking properly. This is crap, what we can offer to help her? Do we understand the environment she grew up with? The lifestyle they have? Why help her not others? Why dont we help those girls here first? We have the same problem here but we not looking into it. Why? Because Malaysian politicians are just too nosy (kepoh!!) and have nothing better to do!
Save those prostitutes, drug addicts, mat rempits, drop outs, beggars, unemployed graduates in this country 1st. Go to Jalan Tun Abdul Rahman or Lorong Haji Taib. (No I never been there ha ha!) Not forgetting there are plenty homeless, poor folks to help. Watch “Bersamamu’ on TV3 and you know what I am saying. Kuman di seberang laut jelas kelihatan, gajah depan mata tak nampak. Bahlol sungguh! What a joke!
The cost is too hefty. Government officials travel on business class say RM25k per person. 5 ppl? Is not this money better spent to help girls who is forced into prostitution? Those who need help are whom are forced but have desire to change. She voluntary involve herself to be a whore and proud of it. I quote :
“People think escorting is sleazy and terrible but I don’t see it like that,” she says. “I’ve always had a high sex drive—and now I’m getting all the sex I want—and guys are much better in bed with an escort than a girlfriend.
“I don’t have any regrets. I’ve never felt more confident about my body and I’ve had some of the best sex of my life.”
(source :http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/0604_hooker.shtml)
Well, this is how we can help her :
1. Send a whore who has been in the same position and realized she made a mistake and change her life 180 degree. They have more in common to relate.
2. Leave her and her family alone. The last thing they want is to be a national agenda of country they not a citizen of.
She will come to her senses. In two years, she will get herself out. She just making time for her lost childhood. She wants help, she will ask for it. Just leave her alone.

I detest The Star very much for its very bias reporting. I love the Sports and Business sections. I just cannot stand the way The Star portray our good government in a very ass kissing way. Go and flip over The Star newspaper for the past few days. They never write anything else but the goodness of Barisan Nasional. I wonder, The Star is here to report the news or to shove down their opinions down our throats?
With the election at the corner, The Star has continue to become a mouthpiece for Barisan National, publishing one sided news. Where are the ethics of journalism? Fark you The Star. I shall never buy any of your craps anymore. I will read it online or borrow it at mamak stall, but I will never buy it. Not worth my RM1.20 to read all the bombastic craps you serve everyday. Same shits, different day. I guess not only me with this feeling against The Star, check out this letter :
Manager,
Editors
and staff of the
Star Publications (M) Bhd
C:C to all Contacts. 28/2/08
IS STAR PUBLICATION A SHARE HOLDER OF BARISAN NASIONAL?
Dear publisher,
With much regret and disappointment over the star publication i am writing this letter.
I strongly condemn and object all your articles in the star the pass few days. Very clearly i can see that your articles on the coming general election is giving a one sight report and supporting the barisan Nasional Government. I view this as something not healthy and a threat to the future of the the media.
You use the caption MALAYSIA DECIDES 2008 in your General election report. How to decide when you don’t even give a report on the opposition party. Lim Kit Siang, Anwar Ibrahim and other oppositions gave many ceramah`s in penang, But i don’t see any detail or article on that events. and even if i had see, It would be a negative report on that party. What kind of practice is this in a democratic country ? We as the rakyat and reader of the star expects and demand equal coverage and news on all parties in the general election. Yes it`s good to tell the nation what the barisan has done for it`s people and the development it has brought to this country, at the same time it is also important to hear from the opposition their views and vision for the country. Whether they are giving empty promises, or lying, it is for the rakyat to decide. Not for the government or for your publication to decide or come to an conclusion.
In your publication today 28/2/07 page N 11, there is an advertisement from MIC. What kind of advertisement is that. Is MIC trying to instill fear in the nation and getting votes by threatening us. It say`s IF YOU DON’T VOTE FOR MIC THEN BE PREPARED TO PAY THE PRICE…. What the hell does MIC mean by that. That statement has already breach the election campaign law which prohibits nominee’s from threatening the voters. I see only Barisan Nasional `s advertisement in the star.. Aren`t there any other parties contesting in this coming general election? Every single day i see so many full page BN advertisement, Have they not yet exceeded the campaign budget limit approved by the election commission for all parties. I know how many thousands it cost for a single page advertisement in The Star. Or is the star sponsoring the pages for BN… If yes, then why is the star not sponsoring also for DAP, KEADILAN and PAS. There are also readers whom support the opposition as much as the readers whom supports BN. This is such and insult to all readers of the Star. We give you business and you pay us back in this way ?
When reporting on news which refers to Dato seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and Datuk seri Najib Tun Razak, your publication refers them as the Prime Minister and the Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia . Has your editors forget that the Parliament has been dissolved. What right do you all have then to officially call both this people current ministers of Malaysia . Aren’t` you all then giving false information to the readers.
I send this email as and warning to the Star Publication to give and equal coverage to all parties on the General Election. It`s is also a call from the Election Commission President of Malaysia to give and equal and fair coverage to all parties. If your company were to still publish report on a one sight view after reading this email, I am going to launch a boycott on the star publication and urge penang people not to buy the Star. I will go all out for it using my contacts and influences and make sure people do not buy the Star. There are alternative paper like the SUN which provides equal news to the nation. Why then spent more to buy news which is not fair and equal to all. I hope this is the start for a change in the way your reports are being published. Let the Nation decide, and dont fool your readers.

From http://yahyasyap.blogspot.com/2007/11/freedom-from-tyrants-both-foreign-and.html
On the 31st of August, 2007, Malaysia celebrated 50 years of independence from British rule. The British ruled Malaysia for their own benefit, exploiting local inhabitants – Malays, Chinese and Indians – to make Britain wealthy. When they left, the hero of independence Tunku Abdul Rahman became Prime Minister under a constitution which promised Westminster style democracy. It promised that while the Malays, the Monarchies and Islam would be protected, all citizens would be citizens of a new, democratic nation.
Westminster democracy has at its core that the people are entitled to choose those who govern them in free and fair elections. This means not only that elections be held, but that the parliament elected should be broadly representative of the votes taken in the election. People must also be free to vote for who they wish without risking penalties to do so. Another assumption is that all parties will have access to and be treated equally by the media.
