My thought on Brains v Brawn: Why UMNO can't match LKY

This is the original article.

And here is my response:

Lee Kuan Yew himself is an intellectial as well. Don't forget that he grad from Cambridge during 50s. Our past and current PM could not match him in terms of academic achievement. 

Lee's political ideology is the Confucius kind, to rule the country with Elites or scholars. (background: China is the earliest country that took public servants by public examination at multiple levels, as early as 500AC).

As for Lee, I guess he wanted to make himself as close to emperor as possible. In the end he did not. He is excellent and that's why abit arrogant.

強迫入教并無效

这两日上培训课。师为某已达耳顺之年的华裔女穆斯林。她本非穆斯林，因嫁马来人而入教。

两日来，她偶尔言及私事，透露爱好禅修的信息，还曾跟随某印度籍心灵导师作心灵之旅。

在本国，穆斯林修禅可被视为叛教之举，惟师之伴侣似乎对其修禅不甚在意。可见本国政府强迫婚姻改教，并无法使改教者成为真正穆斯林，信仰真主和穆圣之道，反倒令其徒有穆斯林之虚名而已矣。

New Generation of Modern Chinese Malaysian

I came across a Facebook post of a friend's friend as follows:

I lecture in different private colleges/universities that are predominantly run by Chinese and attend by Chinese. But in one such institution I have the privilege to teach a group of MARA scholars. This group of MARA students, many of them came from not so rich family and to be able to get scholarship to go to the US to further their studies is a great opportunity that they wouldn't have if they are left alone without any government assistance. 

Now I am not here to talk about NEP or Bumiputra rights or racial discrimination etc. What I want to point out is the attitude these MARA students have compare to the group of Chinese students who come from a wealthy background. These MARA students are serious with their studies because if they don't get the grades required, they will lose their scholarship. They are diligent, hardworking, attend my class regularly, and do their work without complaining. Because of their religious up bringing, they respect me as their lecturer and elder and they produce quality work. 

Come back to the Chinese students, because they don't really need to maintain a certain grade point average (their parents will be there to support them no matter what) plus growing up in a well to do family, they basically behave like the world has owe them everything. They complain just because the lecturer refuses to give them one extra mark for them to get an "A" (which they don't really deserve one), produce mediocre work, missing classes, and rude to lecturer (I guess may be their parents allow them to answer them back rudely).

I have two points here. Whatever the scholarship or financial assistance the government is giving to the Malays, they are generally (notice I say generally) given to well deserve Malay students. And it is a joy to have them in my class. 

As for the Chinese students in my class, many of them are good students and really enjoy having them in my class. 

But many of them are also spoiled to the bones. I don't blame them. I blame it on their parents. I have no idea why modern Malaysian Chinese parents have totally lost control of their children. They are so afraid of offending their children and saying "no" or "cannot" is something absolutely haram in their children upbringing. And their children can do no wrong; it is the lecturer or the college is the one who is in the wrong, abusing their children. After all, they pay to come to the institution.
My colleague and I were discussing the above issue this morning. I told her that I am concerned because we are growing old. One day, these students with this kind of attitude will take over the country and I wonder I will be taken care of at my old age...but I do see rays of hope in our MARA scholars...Insy-Allah.

My opinion is as follows:

Religious upbringing makes the difference. Many modern Chinese families don't really stress much on religion teachings. 

Ancient Chinese were very well mannered due to strong Confucianism background but modern Chinese completely abandoned Confucianism(since early twentieth century) and they have nothing(or money) to fill in the blank and here's the result.

If you study the Peranakan, you'll find Peranakan are generally very well mannered because they still retain some of Confucianism rituals and rites.

廣告： 潮吹 Squirt

男人射精，女人潮吹。

那日用我之前所写的方法（看这里），由于够久，弄到伴侣潮吹了。

就是突然感觉有大量液体自伴侣下体射出，弄得我下半身粘粘的。

完事后，才发现是潮吹。

Female also ejaculates, the term is Squirt. One recent night while I was fucking for long suddenly my partner squirted. Please refer to my technique here.

霹雳博物館

太平不仅有太平湖可去而已，太平还有许多好去处，如与太平湖毗邻的动物园，又如这间离太平湖非常近的"霹雳­博物院"。

这间霹雳博物院门票不会很贵，才二元而已，属于廉价的开销。售票处就位于博物馆外头而已。不过，由于保安不­严，如果游客从后门进入，肯定也不会被抓到。当然那是缺德的事，马币两元其实真的不算什么大花费。

停车位还算充足，但是并没有遮荫，要泊在大太阳下。

里面有冷气，非常凉爽。第一个展览厅展览的是马来族与各原住民的面具。马来族都有戴着面具舞蹈的传统。而原­住民每逢祷神仪式皆会戴上不同面具来跳舞祝贺一番。有些面具看起来真的像极外星人，不知这些原住民先民是否­曾见过这些奇形怪状的生物。

展览厅内还有电子显示屏播放马来族和原住民的面具舞蹈，附加各种讲解。不过这些东西似乎属与霹雳无关。不明­白为何称这博物馆为霹雳博物馆。

第二个展览厅则没什么特别。展出的都是动物骨骼和样本。海陆空的动物都有。样本都栩栩如生，我还以为是动物­尸体所制作的标本，不过後来仔细观察，其实都是泥塑的。

第 三个展览厅则是各种马来传统金银器。这些金银器都用在各种仪式里，如婚嫁、皇室仪式等。有些金银器我没见­过，知道有这种用途的器具后，还真大开眼界。这 些金银器样样都很精致，保存得很好，真想搬回家收藏。某些金­银器但我就是找不到锡器。奇怪，霹雳以前不是以锡闻名的吗？

至于第四个展览厅则在楼上，展出的都是国内各民族和原住民生活中的各种用品和服装等，相信主要是给外国人看­的。

毫无例外，博物馆出口处有纪念品贩卖处。说真的，那些纪念品许多都与博物馆、大马和霹雳扯不上关系，很多都­是舶来品，就连"小黄人"也有卖，真的很可惜。这么多纪念品，只有印上"我爱霹雳"字眼的T恤还算有纪念价­值。

馬來西亞民間乩童故事

萬達市廚房動物 Kitchen Creatures @ Centerpoint Bandar Utama

来到 Centerpoint ，如果要吃顿还不错的，可以考虑来这间。

从外表看来，来这间餐馆用餐看起来都必须消费二十元以上。

不过，如果是周日（即工作天）时的午餐时间，这间餐馆有推出比较廉宜的配套，好吸引在centerpoin­t上班的打工一族。这算是近年来餐馆吸引顾客的新招数。

这天，我来到centerpoint，这里虽然有小贩中心、有快餐店、有本地饮食店、有泰餐店等等，但我当­时的心情并不是那么想到这些餐馆用餐。

当然，价格不菲也是一个原因。

後来，想到了曾尝过的Kitchen Creatures，就上楼去。毕竟之前到此用餐的经验都很不错。

之前用过的是其鸡排，印象中真的色香味俱全。而这天，我则是点了其午餐配套。

我选了炒饭咖喱鸡，该套餐还送了一杯玫瑰花露水。

菜肴送上来。感觉真的很惊艳。虽然是午餐廉价套餐，但是看得出厨师准备这道食物有多用心。那被玫瑰花露水上­还放了片香叶，看起来非常美观，实在不太舍得喝。最终还是喝了，味道其实跟普通的玫瑰花露水没什么两样，不­过多了那片香叶的香气。

至于咖喱鸡，吃得出其咖喱放入了不少香料，非常浓郁。至于鸡肉，则不会太硬，软得恰恰好。

炒饭，卖相实在美极，吃起来有淡淡的牛油香。一口饭再送一口咖喱鸡，很享受。

吃到口内感觉辣了，赶快喝上一口凉凉的玫瑰花露香叶水，那天的下午，回味无穷。
