I just read up on former Selangor Menteri Besar Dr Mohd Khir Toyo’s statements on Malaysiakini and I am seriously wishing I could tell him to stop being racist. Here are excerpts, with my response after:
“As long as Anwar is important in Pakatan Rakyat, the muzakarah (dialogue) will not succeed. Anwar does not want to [...]

Playing The Joker in The Dark Knight is Heath Ledger’s best performance in his entire career. Unfortunately, the precision in his portrayal of the absolutely psychotic nemesis of Batman is indicative of how much he had to pscyhe himself up for the role.

‘This is a nation that does not obey the voice of the LORD their God nor receive correction. Truth has perished and has been cut off from their mouth.’

Just when we thought the young son in law of the Prime Minister has done it all, he shot himself in the foot again. This time, his remarks in parliament raised eyebrows because he sounded so… all-knowing. That’s an adjective that’s not reserved for someone like Khairy.

So, Anwar has been released on bail now. He’ll have a press conference at 2p.m.
He needs to report back to police in a month’s time. Etc. Etc.
I wonder what the police force calls this entire operation. First they haul him to the police station before the deadline, which is you know, not very proper. Then [...]

1. Ah Loh, please lah, be civil lah. Let me be very honest. Up till today, I’m still wondering why Subang Jaya voted for Loh Guo Burne. Ok, let’s not go into the dynamics of why this and why that. I’m very happy Hannah Yeoh won, and I’m very proud to be a Subangite with [...]

So I was just teaching some students the other day that there’s no such thing as writer’s block. At least there’s no such thing as a total block. I offered them a solution, that when you can’t write one thing, put it aside and write something else. Keep switching until you find something you can [...]
