Budget 101: No Worries, The Friendly Ah Long Is Here

budget ah long friendly

(How many of us keep a budget and then spend more than we earn and ended up borrowing from Ah Long aka loan sharks? It is not too late to learn the fine art of financial planning – keeping budget, ensuring that our income is enough to cover the expenses, keeping up saving for rainy days and when hard days are in, to learn to cut down on unnecessary expenses and tighten our belts)

National Security 2011: Is This A Real End of ISA?

ISA Internal Security Act Law Malaysia

(Draconian laws like ISA may finally end but the question is why now and why not in 2009 or in 2010?

Enforcement 101: Ops Sikap: Attitude vs Enforcement

UPDATE: Follow up on Ops Sikap, it is good to hear that the police is going all out for those who are speeding on the roads.

Update: I guess it is unfair to point the fingers at the police alone although they do handle the bulk of the enforcement since there are other agencies involved namely JPJ who handle licensing & training and JKJR who handle the overall coordination and road safety-related activities

Enforcement 101: Ops Sikap, Authorities Should Be Blamed Too

(One reason why we need to enforce Ops Sikap – it looks like a plague, idiots on the road without helmet creating a nuisance and endangering others and the worse ones even have young kids on the motorcycle. Image source: http://drhanie.blogspot.com/)
