Oops, you are not. I read wrongly. You said here in The Star Online that it wouldn't increase by 40 sen. Now, the increase has almost doubled! 78 sen!

Guess Guess Guess (It's Official: Petrol to cost RM2.70)
Latest update:
From The Star Online:
Petrol to cost RM2.70 from midnight (updated)Najib, you are a LIAR.
Original posting:
Current petrol price: RM1.92
How high will the price go up to? According to Najib in The Star Online, the increase won't be more than 40 sen. (Click here to read)
In The Star Online today, it reported that on Monday, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said the Cabinet would decide today on a new fuel subsidy scheme and that it would be implemented immediately to prevent speculation but Shahrir said a new fuel subsidy scheme will be fully implemented only in August and today’s announcement is only one of the steps in the revamp. Shahrir also said that the subsidy revamp could result in petrol pumps selling fuel at market prices. (Click here to read)
So, based on these three stooges' statement, we can safely conclude that the next increase will be less than 40 sen and by August, we may pay for fuel at the market price.
Father's First: Early Morning Feed Baby
Janson woke up at almost 2 AM yesterday. Cried for milk.
Mommy was too tired. Asked me to make milk and feed him.
Fed and burped him twice. Two rounds of 2 ounces milk. Then, he went back to sleep.
Thank God that the whole process went quite smoothly. No hiccups.
Hehe...
I resumed my sleep. Four hours later, I struggled to get out of bed for work.

Pride vs Humility (www.malaysiakini.com)
I felt so humbled listening to the father of 21-year-old Chung Jiun Huar who was allegedly beaten brutally by the FRU.
In an interview with malaysiakini, the father said all he wanted was for God to bring his son back and truly thanked God for granting his request. He even said that now that his son was safe, he was not demanding nor expecting any form of compensation. (Click here to watch)
What a lesson to be learnt from Chung's father who, in my opinion, is much more learned than the Deputy Home Minister, Chor Chee Heung, who justified police action at the crime scene where Chung was being victimized. (Read the news caption here. Source: www.malaysiakini.com)
Remember, Mr. Chor, pride comes before a fall.

To blog or not to blog
As a blogger, ahem...I have a common question posed to me like, 'Why do people have so much time to blog ah?
To this question, I have a common answer, 'Blogging is a matter of priority. If you think it is important, then you will spend time on it.'
Some think that one's written language, be it English or otherwise, must be good in order to blog. No spelling error. Perfect grammar.
Let me tell you that your thinking is wrong. I tell people to blog the way they would speak.
Do you realize that when you read someone's blog, particularly someone that you know, it sounds as if the author is speaking to you in person?

My published comment in www.chedet.com
In response to Dr M's 'The Racist Card' post, I said:
Tun,Indeed, blog has proven to be the 'hi-tech' media that provides the 'high touch'. In this case, Dr M can get the people's response instantly, something that the print media cannot do.
My race is Chinese. So what? There are many Malaysians like me who no longer care about their countries of origin.
You said, 'It is only in Malaysia that people of immigrant origins, so identified by their insistence on being linked race-wise with their countries of origin, are actually accepted as citizens.' Only in Malaysia? How about America?
Tun, your Vision 2020 of a 'Bangsa Malaysia', is or was it real or merely a political propanganda?
Please, Tun. Do all Malaysians a big favour. Stop talking about race, not even Malays, Chinese or Indians.
Start talking about how to build Malaysia. You led the nation for 22 years. You are more Malaysian than all of us. Thank you, Tun.
