A mini-outing to Singapore with my Kakiis!

A diary, a life and a memory. A series of healing leaving scars. A bitching-board.

A well-known speaker started off his seminar by
holding up a $20.00 bill. In the room of 200, he asked,
"Who would like this $20 bill?"
Hands started going up.
He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one of you
but first, let me do this.
He proceeded to crumple up the $20 dollar bill.
He then asked, "Who still wants it?"
Still the hands were up in the air.
Well, he replied, "What if I do this?"
And he dropped it on the ground
and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe.
He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty.
"Now, who still wants it?"
Still the hands went into the air.
My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson.
No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it
because it did not decrease in value.
It was still worth $20.
Many times in our lives,
we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt
by the decisions we make and
the circumstances that come our way.
We feel as though we are worthless.
But no matter what has happened or
what will happen, you will never lose your value.
Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased,
you are still priceless to those who DO LOVE you.
The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know,
but by WHO WE ARE and WHOSE WE ARE.
You are special - Don't EVER forget it."
IPOH: The Perak government may replace the Proton Perdana V6 Executive official cars used by its executive councillors with other marques such as Toyota or Honda, claiming that the national car maintenance and repair costs are too high.
State Education, Local Government, Housing and Public Transport Committee Chairman Nga Kor Ming said that the “government can actually save people's money if they are replaced with other marques which give a better package and save costs.”
"The old cars can be tendered out for public auctions," he said in reply to Wong Kah Woh (DAP-Canning) during question time at the State Legislative Assembly on Thursday.
Nga said that from 2004 to March this year, the previous state government spent more or less RM269,878.01 annually for the maintenance and repair of 16 official cars or on average RM16,867.37 per car.
He said the cost to maintain the official cars of the then Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Tajol Rosli Ghazali who used two Proton cars of the same model within the period was RM131,610.19.
Nga said that overall, the previous state government spent RM1.3 million to maintain and repair its official cars within the same period.
Tajol Rosli (BNPengkalan Hulu) then stood up and said the present executive councillors could still use the same Proton cars but they should look back at the cost of maintenance.
"If the state executive councillors get new cars, what about other state government officers? In fact, Proton's plant is in Tanjung Malim and it is in Perak," he said. - Bernama
How ironic isn't it?
Even the government is saying Proton cars are high maintenance! lol. aren't the suppose to do something about it? instead of changing cars to Toyota and Honda which they have imposed a 300% tax increase? lol!!! FUNNY! if the government is struggling to pay the maintenance of a NATIONAL CAR, wat do you think the civilians are going through? 50% discount coz we ain't government? WAHAHAHA!~!!!!
Aihhh....
JAKARTA: The Bali bombers’ lawyers, the Muslim Defender Team, is planning to file a lawsuit against the Indonesian Government over their clients’ execution process, which they alleged violated human rights.
“The executions were done not in accordance with existing procedures. We are preparing to take legal steps,” said Agus Setiawan, one of the lawyers, as quoted by Antara news agency.
Agus said that the rights of the prisoners’ lawyers and families had been violated as they were not allowed to meet the convicts at the Batu Prison in Nusakambangan Island and were not able to fully take care the bodies after the executions.
Separately, Lulu Jamaluddin, younger brother of Bali bomber Imam Samudera, said his family could not accept his brother’s death.
“We will file a lawsuit against the Attorney General’s Office,” he said.
Amrozi, 47, Muklas a.k.a. Ali Gufron, 48, and Imam, 38, were executed by firing squad shortly after midnight early Sunday near their prison for their roles in the 2002 Bali bombings that killed 202 people, including 88 Australians. -- ANN/ The Jakarta Post

KUALA LUMPUR: A man was killed while four others were seriously injured after a car driven by a policeman was believed to have lost control before ramming into them on the opposite lane.
The incident occurred at around 3am yesterday along Jalan Loke Yew when the Proton Saga driven by a lance corporal rammed into four motorcycles.
Witnesses claimed the car made an illegal U-turn before ramming into the motorcycles.
A Nissan Bluebird behind the motorcycles could not brake in time and crashed into the Proton Saga which had two policemen and two civilians inside.
Witnesses claimed they saw the driver of the Proton Saga run away upon realising that someone had died.
Syed Mohd Shahrizal Syed Sahari, 21, one of the motorcyclists, suffered serious head injuries and died at the scene.
His body was sent to the Kuala Lumpur Hospital for postmortem.
A traffic police spokesperson said Syed Mohd Shahrizal’s four friends including a woman in her 20s were rushed to the University Malaya Medical Centre.
The spokesperson said the General Operations Force officer was detained at around 10am yesterday while lodging a police report at the Jalan Bandar traffic police station.
It is learnt police have obtained a blood sample from the policeman to determine if he was driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Syed Mohd Shahrizal’s sister, Shari- fah Shamila Syed Sahari, 31, when met at the hospital said her brother was to get married in a fortnight.
“Only yesterday (Saturday) I had accompanied him to buy his wedding attire and he was so excited. Today he is gone,” she said.
Minutes after police cleared road debris from accident scene, five people including a woman were beaten unconscious by a mob over an alleged misunderstanding.
It is believed the group uttered vulgarities to the crowd before they were beaten up.
They were sent to hospital and are believed to have been discharged yesterday evening.
Dang Wangi deputy OCPD Supt Sulaiman Salleh said police have yet to receive any report regarding the incident.
