I almost murdered someone last Sunday night!

It was about 9.45 pm and I was traveling along LDP towards my grandma’s house in Serdang. In the car were my wife and my son. As usual, we were jovial and chit-chatting whilst listening to cool music when I noticed in my side mirror: 2 motorcyclists on the fast lane, weaving in and out of the fast lane and the middle lane as if the highway belonged to them.… [Click to read the rest] “I almost murdered someone last Sunday night!”

“Pak Turuts” reacts to Pak Lah’s act

It is sad that it needed the Prime Minister to tell the Ministers what to do in the current haze problem. He was giving the hint when he said “they don’t need to ask me. There should be a trigger mechanism so that once the index goes beyond 500; automatically they should declare an emergency for affected areas,”When the PM acts, I had expected the Ministers to be “suddenly active” in doing their job.
