Malaysia Tak Boleh

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH: LRT stalls, Terengganu buys Mercedes, PAS wants to join UMNO, PAS’s Islamic State agenda

Tuesday, July 29th, 2008

I think Malaysia needs to get its act right now or risk fuming its citizens such that they leave the country (which is already happening by the droves)
So today I was asleep at 8 am (read: holidays) when my mum called and asked me to come get her from the LRT station. (Light-Rail Transit, the [...]

The Anwar Ibrahim issue

Saturday, July 19th, 2008

Did he really commit the alleged crimes? Or was it an elaborate political plot by the cronies in the Government? Evidence featured in the following videos seem to point to the latter.
These YouTube videos shed some light on the topic. Follow “Foreign Correspondent” (Reporter Evan Williams and Producer Virginia Moncrieff) from the BBC as they [...]

Beautiful imperfections

Saturday, July 5th, 2008

Which other country in the world has

a stock exchange which stalled for an entire day because Bursa Malaysia could not fix a hard drive problem?
parliamentarians calling each other names and entertaining the people with their antics?
a very entertaining political scene involving the nation’s most influential politicians?
people double parking (sometimes triple) in high density areas?
pirated [...]

Singapore won an island complete with a majestic looking light-house.

Malaysia won a few dreadful looking rocks called “Middle Rocks”. Some rocks floating in the middle of nowhere.

The Star can be quite humorous sometimes. Enough said.

Cluttered Mind

Friday, May 9th, 2008

So many many things in my mind lately. Cluttered and too many things running around. Let’s catch some of them and place them in words.
1) Weirdly, NUS says that my application is still in “Application Processing” mode even though almost all of my friends already know of their admission decision into NUS. Maybe they are [...]

Hmmm?

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

Maybe it’s still too early to say or the applications are still in process, but I applied to 7 scholarships (TNB, Tenaga, SC, Khazanah, National Infocomm Scholarship (Singapore), Sime Darby, and Shell) and got no reply from any of them as yet. (BNM deadline passed but I couldn’t be bothered applying…And I can’t see myself [...]

MCA PROPAGANDA

Friday, February 29th, 2008

I nearly fainted today when I read this:

I feel angry and cheated. (I was rejected, you see) But who cares now anyway. Not me. Stupid MCA propaganda. Why not make the comparison between the number of bumiputera students getting the scholarship as opposed to the number of non-bumiputeras? It is almost certain that a disparity [...]

Saturday (Foiled) HINDRAF Rally

Saturday, February 16th, 2008

I was in my mum’s car on the way to work in KL today when we encountered massive jams in many of the in-roads to the heart of KL, namely to Dataran Merdeka and the Parliament. Roads were shut and the police were everywhere cordoning the roads, causing me to be late for work.

Jam near [...]

UGLY MALAYSIA: Tong Sampah in LRT

Sunday, February 3rd, 2008

Another Ugly Malaysia moment. Remember, you only saw this on ErnSheong.com.
Guess what I saw on my way back from the Switchfoot concert in the LRT (Light Rail Transit) on Saturday night?

Yes you got that right. A VERY LARGE GREEN ‘TONG SAMPAH’ (Rubbish Bin).
The day such a thing happens in a Singapore MRT is the [...]
