Malaysian political dramas is effecting me greatly. And to say that is an understatement. Instead of having nice and good dreams about dancing teddies or spending romantic time with my sweetheart, or a fairy tale ending of an ongoing soap dramas, I dream about Anwar and Saiful doing a butt off! Literally butt off! Butt facing butt, and the butts are debating with each other! Argh! Long gone are the sweetness of my dream life! No more romantic dreams of marrying a prince or sexy and exotic dreams. Ah, yes, old assholes, young assholes, C4ing creeps as well as bubbly mouth strawberries are invading my dreams indefinitely.

My god, that was a nightmare. Why the hell Malaysian politics affect me so? I’m not their aqquintance and I do not know them personally. But what’s going on in Malaysian media agenda setting these days, affects our daily life greatly nevertheless. What they do or what they say is effecting our media, as well as the ambience of our countries.Previous night’s dream really got me thinking. They’ve been demanding Anwar to give his D.N.A samples. Here’s my questions: Why do they need new samples? And how do they plan to use it against Anwar to their own benefit?

As far as I’m concern, they already have Anwar’s D.N.A sample in store, and store it correctly, the D.N.A specimen could be preserve/conserve for a lot of years. Unless the D.N.A was deemed of no importance, they will not preserve it, they will go ahead and destroy it after using it as evidence in court in order to avoid genetic manipulation. But I believe that is not the case.

My biochemistry may not be at a PhD level, but that is a basic knowledge. Why the hell is Pak Lah claiming that the samples in store is ‘too old’? Was he sleeping through his classes and got the facts wrong again? Or the lab is inefficient that they screw up while storing the D.N.A for preservation? Or…the D.N.A that they had in in store is not Anwar’s D.N.A? *gasps*

Nevermind those! I’m just wondering how the hell they’re planning to use the D.N.A if they were to obtain it from Anwar. Are they going to check Anwar’s matress again? Or this time they’re going to be more vicious and porno-ish where Anwar and Saiful are stripped naked and they’ll poke around in both of their butt in order to obtain ‘necessary’ evidence to use it against Anwar?

If the plan to do it that way, I only have one question left. How the hell they’re going to find evidence in someone’s asshole when asshole is usually used for pooping? They do need to wash their ass or use toilet rolls to clean the poop away, don’t they? Won’t the evidence then will be long gone flushed down they toilet bowl by the time they decided to torch both of the men’s butt and poke around with a cotton bud for evidence?

I believe that using D.N.A in this sort of case is dangerous. And, the samples can easily be manipulated. And if it’s true that Anwar’s banana had visited Saiful’s asshole in a certain venue, shouldn’t they be looking for Anwar’s D.N.A, eg, pubic hair, semen, etc over there and compare it with what they have in store? One thing about D.N.A is, they don’t fade easily unless it’s tampered with chemicals or overshadowed by another D.N.A. Why can’t they just make an effort to look for it in the place of ‘crime’? Or is it there’s no crime to begin with and D.N.A. is necessary to build a case against Anwar?

Cleffairy: Genetic maipulation is a dangerous thing.

I’ve been skimming through the old newspaper at home for some clipping ( LOL… nothing serious, I usually clip out comics that I like.) and apparently I have missed an issue that I feel quite strongly about. CYBER CAFE. And since the news is not yet rotten,  I might as well give my two pence on it. The article below was taken from The Star Malaysia, 8th July 2008. And PLEASE NOTE that this particular matter was brought up a day after Pak Lah condemn bloggers for ’slandering’ and ‘defaming’ around in their blogs.

TIGHTER RULES FOR CYBER CAFES- New guidelines to be enforced soon.

KUALA LUMPUR: All cyber cafes will have to cllose by midnight daily and operate only from the ground floor of buildings once the guidelines to control them are enforced.

Deputy Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Hamzah Zainuddin said that under the new guidelines, cyber cafe operators were also banned from using tainted glass.

“Operators must ensure their shops can be seen from the outside,” he said.

The new rule also require those below 12 years old to be accompanied by their parents or guardians to cyber cafes and they are only allowed to stay until 10pm,” he told reporters at the Parliament lobby yesterday.

The guidelines have been drawn up and ready to be enforced at anytime.

However Hamzah did not say when the ministry was going to start enforcing them except to say it would be “as soon as possible”.

Hamzah said cyber cafes were also banned from other co-business activities, including having games, gambling, pornography, music and publications with negative elements.

“Cigarettes and alcohol cannot be sold or consumed at these premises,” he said.

Hamzah said operators were required to keep a register to record the entry and departure time of their patrons.

“This is to ensure that all patrons are checked by operators at all times. The owners of all business must also send names of students who come to their premises to their schools,”

Hamzah said some students had been found to play truant by changing their uniforms and visiting cyber cafes during school hours.

“We will also issue warning to operators who allow students into their centres as this( truancy) has been getting out of hand,” he said.

Cyber cafes which do not comply with the guidelines would be blacklisted.

“The names of offenders will be sent to all local authorities and they will not be allowed to open such business again in any part of the country,” he said.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________

While I applaud the authorities effort to make cyber cafes less accesible for minors and requires them to be accompanied by parents or guardian, I seriously doubt how many parents or guardian are willing to take their child to a cyber cafe and sit there with them, especially when the image of cyber cafe in Malaysia is as smelly as a skunk’s fart. By asking parents or guardians, who are probably too busy to accompany their children to a cyber cafe is probably asking for the sun, the stars or the moon.

I haven’t seen any parent who are willing enough to send their kids to cyber cafe, what more sit for a few hours with them in the cyber cafe, waiting for their kids to do their things. Ask them to send their kids to tuition or music class, yes, that they will do, but not cyber cafes. The authorities might as well ban cyber cafes from allowing kids below 12 from entering their premises if parental guide is made compulsory. Heck, not all parents are so free as to sit with their kids in a cyber cafe.

Parents are usually adults, and most are working too. How the hell are they supposed to accompany their kids to a cyber cafe? And what kind of ‘guardian’ that they are referring to? If the mummy and daddy are working, are they supposed to hire a maid or something to accompany their child to a cyber cafe if their child wanted to go to a cyber cafe? Abit ridiculous and non-practical, don’t you think? Some of these kids goes to cyber cafe to do their Computer Class homework, not for the sole purpose of fun. Some come from a family that could not afford a desktop, and cyber cafe would have to make do. Wouldn’t it be more practical if they make the schools’ computer labs more accessible for children to use if they do not wish to encourage underage children to frequent cyber cafes? What good is a computer lab if they are only open to the kids to use during a pathetic 1 hour class? 1 hour is not even enough to do their IT class assignments. Most of the school computer labs are left unoccupied after school hours. Why not make it accessible for students to use? That would somewhat lessen some of the kids’ the frequency to cyber cafes.

I strongly do not agree that a cyber cafe should be closed by midnight. Why you ask me? This is why: At night of after midnight to 3-4am in the morning is usually a cyber cafe’s peak business hours, where there are a lot of college students or teenagers frequent the premises to do their stuff. Usually they are there for games, like WoW, Counter Strike and many more while a minority of them are poor souls who are there to do their university or college assignments as they can’t afford a PC or a Laptop with an Internet line for research . By asking them to close by midnight, that would mean taking away most of their clients as well as their profit away from them. ALOT of profit. If these cyber cafes businesses can’t generate more revenues, won’t that mean there will be less income tax can be collected from them? We’re not talking about one or two cyber cafes, we’re talking about the whole Malaysia’s cyber cafes businesses. Imagine how much will be gone once the guideline is implemented. Not only the businesses will loose money, but the government too, will loose some in the form of tax.

Not only that, PC servicing/networking will loose business too if this new guideline is to be implemented. Who would want to open a cyber cafe that cannot be open during peak hours? This will indirectly affect PC servicing/networking business as there will no longer be loads of cyber cafes bosses who requires their service. What’s left, is just office and home business, and it can’t be said that servicing home and office PCs is a huge goldmine. Cyber cafes are usually goldmine for PC servicing centres. Again, there will be loss of revenue.

Don’t give me the crap about truancy. Even if you don’t allow school kids to go in cyber cafes and they wanted to skip school, they will do it anyway. They might not be able to go to cyber cafes, but there are lot more places they can go, such as shopping mall, cinemas, and god knows where else they can go in this forsaken world. I was a kaki ponteng when I was in form 5, and I am not ashame to admit it, as the school sucks and the classes bores me to death. I skipped school, but I did not go to cyber cafes. I slept in at home and watch tv instead, and no one can stopped me either, back then. If the government wants to stop students from playing truant, kindly make the education more interesting and addictive, not just requiring students to sit down rooted on the chair, shut up and agree on whatever the teachers teach.

If a cyber cafes are to banned from other co-business activities, including having games, gambling, pornography, music and publications with negative elements, what good is a cyber cafe then? Almost all cyber cafes thrive on co-businesses, especially games and music. Most cyber cafes do not allow gambling, and there’s a difference between a jackpot centre and a cyber cafe. One should not be confused that all cyber cafes are gambling centres. Those PC centres that allows gambling is not cyber cafes. they are jackpot centres.  Jackpot centres usually is set up in a rather secluded areas, unlike cyber cafes that usually targeted youth as their patrons, are set up in a very strategic and easily accessible areas. Do note that most cyber cafes DO NOT allow pornography either.

And what does ‘publication with negative elements’ supposed to mean? I take it as ‘blogging’ is a negative publication element since our dear PM mentioned that ‘bloggers are responsible’ for slander and stuff and is corrupting the mind of the people. Well, it seems the authorities goes to great length to stop minds from reaching out in this technological era. They go as far as to undermine cyber cafes business. It’s such a pity. How are we supposed to move forward and open our mind to the world if we are to reject tehnological advance, especially the Internet?

I don’t know how others feels about this, but I do not wish to stay inside a coconut shell and think that it’s my whole world when I know there’s alot to be learn outside there.

 Cleffairy: I’d rather have teenagers venting their hormonal or adrenaline rush in  cyber cafes’ keyboard and screen than having them rempit-ing on the streets or clubbing at night. And I’d rather have them loiter and satisfy their curiosity through Internet than having them involved in crimes and trying out drugs out of curiosity

The article below was taken from The Star Malaysia, 17th July 2008,

KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail has a sense of déjà vu over her husband Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s arrest.

Anwar was arrested in 1998 on charges of abuse of power, corruption – and sodomy. This time, he has again been arrested over an allegation of sodomy,

“It is a feeling of déjà vu. Of course, now my children are big and I am in Parliament now. But I feel it should not have happened this way,” she told reporters yesterday outside the KL police headquarters after meeting Anwar.

“I have a fear. Although they guarantee his safety, it was the same thing they said before, but it didn’t happen.”

She also expressed regret over the way police handled Anwar’s arrest yesterday.

“It now has political connotations,” she said.

The Permatang Pauh MP was with her daughters, Nurul Izzah and Nurul Nuha, son-in-law Raja Ahmad Shahrir Iskandar Raja Salim and Anwar’s lawyer, Sankara Nair.

She had arrived at the police headquarters at about 1.30pm.

The PKR president also said her husband told her and Malaysians to remain calm.

“He is doing well, so far,” she said.

“I regret the way he was detained. After all, he had given his assurance that he would be here. He will act within his legal rights.”

Dr Wan Azizah said she was at Parliament when one of their lawyers informed her of Anwar’s arrest.

Nurul Izzah, PKR’s Lembah Pantai MP, said her father was ready to give his statement.

“My sisters and I had already agreed to accompany our father and to be here by 2pm. How am I supposed to feel safe?”

She arrived with her husband Raja Ahmad at about 1.55pm and handed over her marriage card for a visitor’s pass to enter the building as she had left her MyKad in Parliament.

Nurul Izzah said her father was arrested by Special Action Unit commandos, as in 1998.

I don’t have much things to say about the recent arrest of Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. That is to be expected as he had delivered quite a debate a night before his arrest. Who wouldn’t want to arrest a person who can convince people to make him a PM? Well, at least he CAN convince some people as he promised that when he become PM, our financial burden would slightly be off our shoulder.  At least he speaks with more conviction than the unpopular actions being implement by the government these days. Whether he’ll truly take care of the citizens welfare after he become PM or not is another case. I truly believe that most are sick to the stomach with the way the government is running the country, and desperately need changes.

Datuk Seri Wan Azizah mentioned that she had  a sense of déjà vu  when her husband was arrested. Well, I’d say, have more fear, this is Malaysia. It’s not only in politics that people are trying as hard as they could to take one’s posession or take other’s confidence away in order to feel more powerful or stronger. People around us will stop at nothing to step on our head, whether we realize it or not. Such things happens in our daily lives too, be it at home, in office or just merely a mamak stall ‘yum cha’ session. Well, maybe others do not feel that way, but ever since I was a young girl, I felt that my confidence over my own ability being taken away from me constantly by people around me. And to make it worst, they are the people who claimed to be ‘close’ to me. Encouragement and support are hard to come by in whatever I do and this does not change even when I entered adulthood. And so, I don’t see what difference it would make with Datuk Seri Wan Azizah. Everyone is in the same shoes, only in different ways and level.

Cleffairy: Issit just me or instilling fear in the people’s mind is a new way to put a leash on the people’s thinking and behaviour?
