This is getting serious!

* The temple that was slated for demolishment in Shah Alam (Picture Source: www.policewatchmalaysia.com). The history of the temple is here

At first I thought that only we Hindus got screwed. Then running through other websites reveals that we were not alone.

The Malaysian Bar Council reported 2 other incidents involving a Buddhist temple and a Church (both got reported in the mainstream media as well).… [Click to read the rest] “This is getting serious!”

Trip Of The Year 2006: The Trip To The Cool Highlands – The Conclusion

genting highland trip 2006 breakfast

(Breakfast was organised for this trip but when we went over for our turn, there were plenty of hungry crowd at the restaurant)

Heavy drinking the night of this trip before only means one thing or rather 2 things the next morning – I am going to be very hungry when I wake up and I am going to have a slight headache.

(The “calm before the storm” when we were early to the highland’s banquet hall)

Considering we are at the highlands, it was cold when I woke at 5.00 pm. It was cold when I stepped on the cold & hard bathroom tiles. It was pure hell when the cold freaking water hit me when I turned on the shower. It was like taking a shower with ice cubes.

It took sometime before I managed to balance the cold & hot water but by then the “damage” has been done. I was shivering as I came out of the shower.
