Whatever she said, write or do, she will never get into trouble from the authorities. Is there anyone who dare to shake his butt in front of her house? Do the police even dare to look her in the eyes? It is like the story of the walk of the fox and the tiger through the forest. While the fox may proclaim as the king of the forest, it is the tiger walking behind that the rest are actually afraid of.

Malaysia is presently drifting like it doesn't have a rudder in the first place. Where are the leaders? It is more like a drifting glacier melting and is that the reason why a MB is visiting Antarctica where there are only ice, penguins and polar bears? Is he going to plant a kangkung there? We need to know measures will be put in place to alleviate the effect of rising cost of living for the lower incomes and pensioners. We may not be able to tell when these measures are workable but we can definitely tell when ridiculous ideas are put forward by "Kangkung" with empty stock.

The saying "you can fool some people all the time and some of the people all the time" is no longer true. This is the internet age, truth is you can only fool those who don't follow the development of the nation. Everyone can write and blog over the internet and they are not like those so called veteran journalists at your beck and call. Your past misdeeds and present scheme will not be able to escape scrutiny of the public. To make a comeback is to invite for more insults than what Najib will be receiving.

From the downfall of Musa and Anwar, from appointment of Abdullah to Najib, all these he put in place in the hope that he can continue to control Malaysia.There has never been any sincere action with the welfare of Malaysia at heart. Like a minister mentor LKY, he had an iron grip on BN but unfortunately for Malaysia he can't even hold a candle to LKY when coming to do the right things.

Presumably the cream of the Malay graduates would have been recruited by the GLC and Government services, then those with the next lower level of competency will seek employment in private sector. Looking at the incompetence or dishonesty or wastefulness of (so called creamed) civil servants as reported in the Auditor General's Report every year, private sector employers would reasonably be expected to steer clear of these candidates. No private sector employer would want the existence of a "civil servant syndrome" in the business as they don't have endless fund for bailing out and no way to keep passing increase cost to consumers like a government do. Moreover, non Malays graduate who cant easily find jobs in GLC and Civil Services naturally give their best to gain employment in the only other alternative, the private sector. That is the place for survival of the fittest, no room for discrimination.

Racial discrimination is prevalent in employment in Malaysia, especially in the Government and GLC sectors. Why not carry out a study on the public sector and GLC as well, then we can have a balanced study on whether racial discrimination in employment in Malaysia is only peculiar to private sector or is worse in Public sector and GLC. If indeed it is worse in Public Sector and GLC, then highlighting only the problem in the private sector is just ignoring the existence of the bigger problem at the other sectors.

Expect another Project M, only this time it will be much bigger and will also include a lot of Keralan in addition to Philippinos and Indonesian? Only in Malaysia can a traitor be reappointed as PM. Will the son or daughter then be maneuvered into a position of DPM. Then we may end up like the brother and sister act like in Thailand.

I don't think 'poor' Malaysians are in for better days ahead. Action speaks louder than words. Rhetoric won't alleviate the impending big rise in cost of living. I hope I can eat my words. Mahathir, and not Najib, is the cause of Malaysians' dilemma. If Najib steps down then who shall we replace him with? Abdullah Badawi, Najib and even the DPM are all appointment and creation of Mahathir, none can rise to their present position without the support of Mahathir. So are all the many woes facing Malaysians. We are full of praise now that his team is back in action. While Najib is really inadequate, let's not replace it with another 'fake Bersih, Cekap dan Amanah' of 1981.

All I wanted to do was to cover up more and do more decent modelling,” she told The Malaysian Insider. Felixia, is it then logical to imagine that "whoever that prompted you also "wanted to cover up more and do more indecent muddling and distract Malaysian attention from the daily plundering and mismanagement of the country?

You may be able to extract a fee from our government who have a habit to pay consultancy charges. That is in case, they think of outsourcing the function of Bank Negara.

As it is now, all these halfhearted racist rhetoric from the ruling party only stuns the progress of our country. 1Malaysian for Non Bumiputra, 1 Melayu at UMNO GM has now progressed to splitting into different denominations of Islam.

Our position will be 65th/65th for mathematics, 65th/65th for science and 65th/65th for reading. Our students will actually perform better than the education ministers and teachers with private tuition. Solution : Replace the Education Minister and get us qualified teachers and our ranking will improve next year.

He is the "Best in Singapore, JB and some say Batam". I am sure he can teach the education ministry how to "use your blain" and "don't pray pray" with our standard of English and world ranking.

Habit 1 - Be racist, ban words and demolish temples. Habit 2 - Begin with MP, end with frog, with an Indian kissing your cheek in mind or the hand of the PM/DPM. Habit 3 - Put Malay first (1Melayu) Habit 4 - Think Endless Possibilities - Chinese Tycoon - Bumiputra Contracts rental income, roofs keep falling on your head. Habit 5 - Seek first to be mentally deranged, then to be destroyed - Price of sugar increase, take salt. Habit 6 - Synergyzing UMNO and PAS. Habit 7 - Sharpen the kris to raise at UMNO Meeting.
