National debt

Please visit http://www.usdebtclock.org/index.html to see the real US debt clock shown above.

I agree with Jeff Ooi that how about we come out with a National Debt Clock? How much debt is our country currently bearing? How much is the national debt per citizen? How much is the credit card debt per citizen?

That would be an interesting statistics.

Rubik’s Cube

Image790 Image791

I solved the Rubik’s cube for the 1st time in my life! Yahoooooo!!!!

But I was merely following step-by-step instructions on internet, I haven’t memorize the steps yet, so I can’t solve it without looking at instructions on internet.

Now I must practice more and memorize the steps…

hehe!!!! Happy!!!

Biggest source of food contamination

Most of you will think that major contamination of our food are additives and/or pesticides. I am going to tell you that it is wrong, by far, the most significant source of contamination comes from food contact materials! It’s the chemicals from packaging that migrates in huge quantity into food.

Issues such as epoxidized soybean oil (ESBO) from gaskets of lids of glass jars, primary aromatic amines (PAAs) from nylon kitchen wares and plasticizers from PVC wrapping films and containers are abundant.

Yet, people choose to ignore those chemicals that leach from food packaging.

World Heritage Sites

World heritage sites can be anything – a lake, mountain, building, city etc that is on the list maintained by the international World Heritage Programme administered by the UNESCO World Heritage Committee, composed of 21 state parties which are elected by their General Assembly for a four-year term. A World Heritage Site is a place of either cultural or physical significance.

In Malaysia, Georgetown, Melaka and Mount Kinabalu are accorded the status of world heritage sites. That means, if you are a Malaysian, these 3 places are must-go destinations, if not, please don’t call yourself ‘Anak Malaysia’.

Personally, I have been to Georgetown and Melaka and I love both places, the only place that I am still yet to go is Mount Kinabalu.

Hehe, I shall make my planning to conquer this south east Asia tallest mountain.

Kyoto Protocol

If you are a Malaysian, you will definitely feel the heat in recent months. Yes, the world is getting hotter and hotter, thanks to the emission of green house gases (GHG) by all of us – human!

Currently, China tops the chart as the biggest emitter of GHG, surpassing the United States on August 2008. China, U.S., European Union and India are the top contributors to world GHG.

Kyoto Protocol is a protocol aimed at reducing the emission of GHG to prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system. Details of the agreement can be read here.

As human becomes more civilized and countries becoming more developed, how can we avoid emitting GHG? I really don’t know to what extend Kyoto Protocol is useful in curbing green house effect, but I can be certain that the temperature is going to increase, the ozone layer is still thinning, and we are going to live in a hotter earth.

Let’s face it, one day, sinful human who destroys this earth shall extinct.

Boycott the newspapers!

Boycott the newspapers!

A cause everyone can support

To sign the online petition, click HERE

 

Anybody who is a consumer has the power to boycott. We are in reality empowering ourselves when we say to the mainstream media (MSM): “We refuse to buy into your lies. Therefore we’re not buying newspapers.”

Newspapers are enablers allowing Malaysia’s ancien regime to sustain its self-serving shaping of our world. We believe that civil society is informed enough to protest against being brainwashed by MSM disinformation.

The newspapers claim Hindraf are violent and racist troublemakers. Well, we know who the real racists and troublemakers are. The newspapers claim police did not use force against Indians at Batu Caves on the eve of the Hindraf rally. Photographs show the Indians herded behind the temple gates, locked in, gassed to tears and doused with chemical-laced water.

When our authorities bully the most marginalized of communities, and newspapers blacken these victims of marginalization, then our country has reached a watershed. Civil society has no other choice but to be morally outraged over this spindoctoring.

The newspapers also misreported the numbers who supported Bersih in our capital city, saying few when there were many; they misreported the numbers who supported MIC’s show of force at Cheras stadium, saying many, many more than there really were.

MSM have lied too much on too many matters for too long. And they will keep on lying unless we tell them ‘Enough already!’

We are not breaking any law by making a personal decision not to buy newspapers.

We are not causing trouble nor promoting racial or religious disunity by boycotting newspapers. In fact, it is newspapers that are promoting a distorted communalism to keep their political masters – Malaysia’s racist political parties – in power, and us in a climate of fear. And the longer this parasitic power structure remains unchallenged, the more the lowest strata of society will be affected.

Because we are Malaysians with conscience and our conscience isrightly troubled by government mouthpieces spinning webs of deceit,The People’s Parliament is calling for Hartal.

We are all doing the conscionable thing to check the unrelenting anddangerous indoctrination by newspapers. This signature campaign is about how ‘we, the people’, can stand up and be counted. It’s about reclaiming Truth and taking our country back.

Thank you for your support against the falsehood-mongers. We thank you for caring enough to reform your reading habit.
