DAP Lim Guan Eng Challenges MCA Chua Soi Lek


Lim Guan Eng

Although Sarawak state election has become history but the flame of election war has spread to West Malaysia. Chief Minister of Penang Lim Guan Eng challenges President of MCA Chua Soi Lek to order Siow Chen Pin and Mah Hang Soon to resign.

Sarawak United People's Party nearly perished in the 10th Sarawak state election. Chua Soi Lek urged SUPP Chinese Members of Sarawak Legislative Assembly reject to be State Exco Members. Anyone is free to express opinions in a democratic country. If the opinion is not logical, it is just a laughing stock. I had to see dentist after listening to this type of joke.

The evolution of politics is endlessly. Conservative and complacent politician will definitely be eliminated.

Lim Guan Eng Believes Election Won't Be Held Soon


Lim Guan Eng

With the ending of Sarawak Legislative Assembly election, many political commentators predict the date of the dissolution of parliament. Chief Minister of Penang Lim Guan Eng thinks that the 13th general election wouldn't be held any time soon.

The outcome of 10th Sarawak state election deters Prime Minister to dissolve the parliament in advance. Although Pakatan Rakyat failed to deny two-thirds majority of Barisan Nasional but their achievement was pretty better than 2006. They obtain 45% of popular votes as compared with 37% in 2006. Their seats had increased from 7 to 15. All these historic changes indicate that the people of Sarawak are gradually accept the idea of alternative government.

When DAP captured 6 seats in Sarawak election in 2006, Pakatan Rakyat made a stunning record in 2008. Now DAP has 15 seats in hand, may be this is a presage of changing government in the coming 13th general election. If not, Barisan Nasional may lose half of its kingdom.

South Korea Chinese Delicacy Crispy Fried Chicken


Fried Chicken

The taste of this fried chicken is same as fried chicken which I had eaten before. The difference is location and climate.

There is not much fried food in Korean delicacies. The fried chicken was available because we were dining at a Chinese mini restaurant.

It's not necessary to put too much of sauce on the fried chicken because it will undermine the crispy taste. In fact, the sauce should put on a small dish and let the diners to decide with it.

Wooden Stairs Leading To Hanyang University


Hanyang University

This wooden stairs is leading to Hanyang University Seoul campus. The students who stay in the student hostel have to use this stairs to the campus. My son stepped on this stairs for two years when he was pursuing his study in Hanyang University. No wonder he walks so fast when he returns to Malaysia.

When the graduation ceremony had ended, we followed our son to the student hostel to leave something there. My wife and my son walked in front of me. I was behind them, busy taking photos and enjoy watching the winter scenery of South Korea. It was quite difficult for me to get down from this high and steep stairs because I seldom exercised after retirement.

If you still can walk around, why not go for holidays? Remember not to work until your last breath.

This is not so. I can't live without pork. That's why I am not a Muslim. Although so poor but dare not to rob a bank because I am as timid as a mouse. Actually this photo was taken in 2005 at South Korea Everland Theme Park.

The weather was so cold. I had to mask my face. Otherwise, the trip would be a sad ending. The experience of traveling in winter is really unforgettable for life.

Malaysia DAP Robin Hood Anthony Loke


Anthony Loke

During Merlimau by-election, Dap Negeri Sembilan Rasah Member of Parliament Anthony Loke frequently appeared at Pakatan Rakyat political talk. He was just like an ancient knight of justice.

The reason why I associate Anthony Loke with Robin Hood is because of his name, Loke Siew Fook. The pronunciation of his name in Cantonese is almost same as Loke Siew Fong, a fictional character of Kung Fu novel.

Anthony Loke is an expert of physiognomy. According to him, one of  Malaysia national leaders looks ominous. Within 3 years of his service, more than ten legislators and the King of Hell have a date one after another.

Anthony Loke really looks far ahead. In order to ensure a better future, Malaysians should seriously reform and change.
