Why We Lost Pedra Branca

I'm not done with the issue of Pedra Branca yet.

In fact, I'm livid with rage at the moment.

Do you know why we freaking lost our white rock with the lighthouse on it??

Because the moron representing the nation over the sovereignity of this rock was a BLOOMING FRESH GRADUATE!!!

And of all universities, from UiTM!!! I mean, come on, this is the university you apply for if you really couldn't get a spot anywhere else. The most inferior, bumiputera-only university in the country.

You don't believe me? Read the judgement here and compare the names.


Which bunch of deranged, demented imbeciles would send a kid who graduated from UiTM in September 2005 out to save our rock??!!!

Those who're trying to kiss his father's ass, that's who. You know who his father is?? Our one and only Attorney General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail.

The same twit who considers the Hindraf people as more of a menace and threat than those who blew up Altantuya with contraband C4 explosives.

The dingbat who charges 26 people with the attempted murder of one scrawny little policeman who received a few stitches to the head.

If the father is so stupid, can you imagine what his budak hingusan of a son must be like?? His resume must have had pandai main internet as top priority to garner his coveted spot, representing the nation.

Yep. And the internet must have brought forward the blogger's plagiarised photo of Pedra Branca against the mainland of Johor. Our biggest bit of evidence was a plagiarised photo.

Dear Lord. How much more asinine could they get?

So was this putting our best foot forward in order to win our rock (and more importantly, the waters around it) back?? My ass it was!!!

Now you know why this country is so screwed. The nepotism displayed goes beyond the lowest levels of mediocrity.

Freedom Of Expression And Ownership Of Land

I apologise for my absence.

I left in a hurry and have been out of the office til now - and without internet access at that. Things have been busy in the political scene though.

It appears that Tun Dr Mahathir has been given short shrift of his juvenile attempts to stir up racial dissent.

Yes, he who repeatedly used various draconian laws to silence his detractors into submission.

I'll never understand that man. He claims to champion the cause of the Malays, but his legacy has only been that of suppression. You know this huge inferiority complex that the average Malay has? Well, you can give the man the credit for it - he engineered that for years.

But yet, everyday I still get surprised. Pleasantly surprised.

Malaysians might have actually shrugged off their jackets of racism and put on the cloak of unity.

Hahaha. That sounded artsy-fartsy, didn't it? :)

But you know what I mean.

And seriously, it's great to be a "race" of our own. To all proudly speak the same language, especially when we meet abroad. To end our sentences with the obligatory 'lah'.

To say "wah piang!" when expressing astonishment. To say "porah!" when telling someone to get lost.

To have specks of dust lodge themselves in our eyes - requiring us to wipe those pesky tears which inevitably follow - when we hear the national anthem being played to celebrate a champion or inaugurate an international function.

Yes. Of late, it has happened to me more times than I'd like to admit.

Oh, and to get collectively pissed when another country gets a piece of rock which is rightfully ours. Who died and let Pedra Branca go freely into Singaporean hands?

Someone slap our stupid government!!

It is so senile and incompetent we may have to slap on some incontinence diapers on these fools to keep them from embarrassing us further in the eyes of the world.

Yes, I'm in a slapping mood today.

One tends to get irritated when one's government spends more time trying to invoke the Sedition and Internal Security acts on its citizens than protecting land which belongs to the nation.
