Sex in the city

Those were the tweets of a good friend Jonathan Fernandez, whom I had the pleasure working alongside during his stint with The Malay Mail several years back.

For the record, Jonathan has participated in the Malaysia Games (Sukma) in the past.

Meanwhile, 'Haresh Says' - as published in The Malay Mail today - speaks about 'Sex in the city'.

"Hosting the Sukma is not a birthday party. 

Just like the conversion of a minor Bill and the proposed implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) that have courted debate recently, proper groundwork should have been done by the powers-that-be. They must think thoroughly and leave no stone unturned.

 But we tend to take things for granted, relying on what little we know and only react when an unfortunate incident happens.

 Sadly, some will treat it as another day in office only to return home to watch reruns of Sex and the City."

HD says: It's called Malaysia Games or Sukan Malaysia (Sukma). Not Sukma Games.

    Very vulnerable situation for all of them. The failure of the society to intergrade and participate in the growing-up of our children should be the main concern here...

    Anybody for that matter can be vulnerable - but, this is where our wisdom comes into play. Sadly the animal part of menkind seems to stand-out instead of otherwise. What contrubute to these? What happend to all the philosophical doctrine about living...?

    There are many ways to go about it...but, we always like to do the wrong and the bad. People are even loosing the basic moral values nowdays. - One doseant need to be a saint to understand all these...

From 'Mr P' to 'Kemelut Dalaman BAM': Four chapters of 'mesej Whatsapp layang'

Image
Surat layang , or rather ' mesej Whatsapp (or some will pronounce as Wasup) layang '. That was what I received this afternoon from a number that is not registered on my phone. The sender identified him/herself as " ahli yg memerhati tingkah laku BAM " (Badminton Association of Malaysia). The four chapters were titled as:  'Siapa dia Tan Sri BAM "Mr P"' Perletakan Jawatan Presiden BAM 'Siapa Tengku Zafrul' Kemelut Dalaman BAM There were many allegations to which the sender justified as not " fitnah " but " hakikat apa yg berlaku ". The four chapters highlights Mr P's "connection kuat ", goes into why Tengku Zafrul was named as the incoming BAM president, and takes issue with the establishment of 'Yayasan Badminton Nasional' and Akademi Badminton Malaysia. The writer (unsure if the sender is also the writer) also wrote that ' majority in the Council dalam BAM semua tak berani buat laporan sebab tak

Ramlan saga - Part 3

UPDATE (May 23, 2012: 12.06pm): Dilema JKR, 'dua' ketua pengarah - this was brought to my attention. Read here for more. ----- I first wrote about the effort to remove National Sports Institute director general Dr Ramlan Aziz in March - as seen here . Then I wrote about the same subject again early May . I was invited to be a guest for this week's Kafe Sukan but had to decline as the recording was done on Sunday - the same day I left the country. Apparently Ramlan's predicament was discussed. Despite receiving numerous SMS-es - for and against what was discussed - I will refrain from commenting as I have yet to view the show. I have also been told there are efforts to get certain people to replace Ramlan. To me that is secondary. I have still not obtained the answers to these questions; 1. According to the NSI Act, only the minister can hire or fire the director general. Has the minister issued such a directive? 2. According to the country's Lab
