Start Squabbling Already ?
DAP uncle Lim must be 'nyanyuk' a bit for releasing his statement about boycotting the Perak MB swearing in ceremony. Bit disappointed with this kind of childish behaviour.
You may not like your working partners, but still should be able to work well with them. DAP has everything to lose, and nothing to gain by giving this kind of attitude. Opposition have won 5 states, and before even starting to work, they fight over who is the boss. How can like that ? Compromise in this matter is necessary in the delicate situation that our country is in. Rakyat wants change. But too much change at too short a time could tip the balance.
Hope he changes his mind, coz lots of ppl protest on his blog too. He should listen to the voice of the people. Else we all know what can happen.

Mourning for a friend...
While I am writing this, I have not managed to stop the weeping or the choked sensation at my throat . I just got sad news that one of my ex-classmate passed away. We studied MBA together some years back. He & his wife, a lovely couple, attended classes together. We still bumped into each other at shopping malls and cinemas off-and-on. He was a wonderful person - kind and helpful and jovial and friendly.
This is the second classmate that lost the battle to cancer. During my first semester, my team mate got ill and quickly within months he succumbed to cancer of the lungs, and bade goodbye to us.
HA, may you rest in peace.
To all of us, may we always appreciate life and our family and friends...

Election news !!
I have been following election results on Malaysiakini since 8pm with my family. It is so exciting .... Forget about TV, TV news is so so slow, and we suspect that the information flow of certain states are planned to be announced later.
We shouted in joy when we saw that our beloved Samy Vellu lost !! He is a joker, but still didnt expect him to lose. This shows that people do use their vote to "send a message".
Another big clap when Sharizat lost to Anwar's daughter, Nurul Izzah...
Another 'woo-hoooo' when Koh Tsu Koon, and his 3 candidates for Penang Chief Ministers, did not even make it to the elected list. So all the hassle about who is the next Penang Chief Minister is all-for-nothing after all... How funny !
Really curious to know if Jeff Ooi will win the Jelutong seat. Our very first blogger-turn-politician.
So now, Kedah, Kelantan and Penang state confirmed lost to Opposition. The BN should really take some deep soul-searching to repent on their wrongs. No more throwing away tax-payers money, no more corruption and start doing some real work. The people have spoken !
