疯狂世界

疯狂世界里的那边厢，狮城老人一席话使得‘边缘论’重新流行起来。这边厢，尊贵的大边缘人只顾不停地协商以期仕途平坦升官发财，斗争的目标已成可以妥协的条件，但口头上仍曰边缘论乃无稽之谈云云。平凡的小边缘人只顾不停地赚钱只望平平安安钱途无忧，稍微关心世事的便闲来在茶室嘛嘛档数数当权者的不是和抱怨因自认二等公民而产生的无力感，不关心世事的则继续享受被无知所带来的太平生活。

疯狂世界里的象牙塔，竟然有着一群胸襟思路都狭溢无比的人。多数人的它们仗着人多势众欺负打压拥有不同立场意见的少数人。网络片断看得人人触目惊心，悲从中来。仿如未进化的猿猴类举止让象征着文化礼教的学府名誉扫地，对于国际排名的计算方式深表不满的大官们也沉默了，因为这一切不文明的事物已经证实了这些年来政策的失败。

疯狂世界已经独立多年，但是仍未挣脱被殖民时的意识形态。代表着分而治之的族群政治继续地被各种族政党发扬光大。每逢大选时都像是深明中庸之道的彬彬君子都在党选党争时纷纷舞动刀剑披挂上阵成了民族英雄。无论是驸马爷抑或是任何政客，都视种族课题为捞取政治资本的最佳方式。无奈，民智未开，这一套仍然在这片土地上行的通。

疯狂世界，依然要继续疯狂下去？

World Cup Final Prediction: Forza Azzurri!

USA 94' was the first time I watched football, since then, I'm totally in love with the beautiful game.


Italy was the team i chose to support and still is. Attracted by the heroics of Roberto Baggio at first, his tragedic penalty miss only deepens my affection to the Azzurri.

My other favourite Italian players included Paolo Maldini, one of the greatest defender ever, regardless of playing on the left or centre, Gianfranco Zola, the little wizard with mesmerizing skills and a legend for the club I supported, Gianluigi Buffon, who in my opinion is the best keeper ever, current captain and another great defender who once voted the sexiest man in Italy, Fabio Cannavaro, and Alessandro Nesta, whose name is my nickname on the football field when I'm playing regularly with my budides few years ago (We have Beckham and Gerrard as well, that's why).

The world cup 2006 final will kick off in 30 hours time. The ability to achieve greatness under the worst circumstances is one of the reason I think the Italian be the new world champion, as they proved in 1982, Seria A scandal is actually a blessing in disguise for them. I can see the typical Italian grit in this Italian team, mixed with a group of experienced players who are at their peak, guided by a master tactician, Marcello Lippi.

However, fans are always bias don't they. :)

National Service Anyone? You'll Lose Loads Of Money!

It has been rumoured for a long long time, but apparently our government do hide things from us, especially when it comes to the matter of money.

The once poster boy of corporate Malaysia, Tan Sri Tajuddin Ramli alleged in his court document at last month that his purchase of MAS at year 1994 was indeed an idea of the government purposely to cover the loss made by Bank Negara in its investment activities.



"The transaction (worth RM1.8million) was a national service but disguised as an arm's-length commercial deal because the government wanted it that way to appease the investment community and the public," said Tajuddin.

The supposedly beneficiary of this 'secret project' reveal everything to the public recently because he discovers that the money-back-guarantee, made by Tun Dr Mahathir (who said "my word is my bond") is not too much of a guarantee actually. As a result he lost his shares in TRI (who owns Celcom) to Danaharta.

Sounds boring and looks complicated? As long as you pay income tax, own shares of MAS or lives in Malaysia. The implications of this incident is so wide that it includes the transparency of government policies to the independence of our legal and public assurance system.

Moral of the story?

Don't trust the businessman!
They lie...

Don't trust the politician!
They cheat...

Don't trust what the media says!
Most of them are tools of businessman and politician...

Don't trust your sense!
They deceive from time to time...said a favourite philosopher of mine

But, "If there was nothing wrong in the world there wouldn't be anything for us to do." quoted George Bernard Shaw.

理想篇：富有论

苏格兰文学家史蒂文森曾说："生活的目标，是唯一值得寻找的财富"。许多人的一生，都用在累积财富上。可是正在求学，工作，甚至是无所事事的你，是否是个富有的人？

先不管你对这苏格兰人对于财富的定义赞成与否，你又知不知道你在有限的岁月里想追求什么理想？想得到什么东西？想到达什么地方？

又或者，你已经有了一个或更多的奋斗目标，但你会不会在临死的一刻反省，一生中做过有意义的事太少，劳劳碌碌地只为父母，伴侣，子女，朋友，亲戚，还有更可悲的是，为了社会的眼光而活？

或许我们还没达到一个可以回答这些问题的境界，不过前苏联作家高尔基说：“如果不想再世界上虚度一生，那就要学习一辈子”。希望大家共勉之。

It all begins with...

A warm thanks to a very good friend of mine, Mr. Fax Ko for inspiring me to become a blogger.

My prejudice was blog is just a form of diary made public to satisfy the pathetic eccentricity of peeping at or peeped by others. While feeling humiliated for my naivety and limitation of knowledge, thanks to my friend, I learned that blog could indeed be a useful tool for improving the freedom of speech in any part of the world. Or at least it allows you to express yourself.

"I doubt, therefore I think; I think, therefore I am", how could I forgot the teaching of the great French philosopher, René Descartes. Our own perception, and sometimes estasblished belief are not necessarily true all the time. I believe this teaching will be useful in all aspects of our life.
