malaysian soap opera

1. the candle light vigil peaceful rally against ISA was met with much force. they had riot police and trucks ready to prevent the rally from taking place. yet, during the cow head incident, the police just stood by and watched. they even had hishamuddin's support, claiming that "they just wanted their voices to be heard". when there were mass gatherings at mosques after friday prayers in retaliation of the use of the word "Allah" in catholic publications, najib said "we cannot stop the people if they want to congregrate within the mosque compounds". er, right. next time let's see what happens if they have the candle vigil in churches and temples.

2. amidst the sodomy drama, an affair emerged between mohd saiful bukhari azlan, the key witness and farah azlina latif, the junior member of the DPP (Deputy Public Prosecutor). both are crimes. so if anwar is going down, so should saiful. but in bolehland, double standard is well...standard.

3. the rumour, as there has not been any solid evidence, of the use of lim guan eng's name instead of the agong's in the khutbah in several mosques in penang. and yet, there would be swift investigation regarding this matter. over a rumour?

4. the sudden discovery of teoh beng hock's suicide note, despite Dr Pornthip's claim that it was not suicide. with utter disbelief, Nazri Aziz, minister in the PM's dept called her a LIAR. little did he know that she was the most trusted person in thailand, according to a Reader's Digest survey.

Awwww, all these Bolehland trysts leave me with a warm and fuzzy feeling; don't you agree? X] I mean, come on, we're so uninteresting apparently that our great leaders feel the need to put us in the "Strange News" section of global newspapers. :D

Viva Bolehland!
