My favourite things

My hangouts is the grocer,hypermarket or wet market,the park outdoors,the bookshops and nowadays the pet shop and the sports shop.i was at Declathon and bought a pink noodle for aquafitness and a pair of anti fog goggles.wanted to get a 5 kg kettlebell when i temembered i can swing my 5 kg fat cat up and down instead of a kettlebell. Now i like to dress

in flexible athleisure wear so today i wore gold lcullottes and turtleneck long sleeve shirt i can move around in the office comfortably.

Media law

Dont shoot the messenger .shut down the sender of toxic hate speech.Why muzzle freedom of the press?it doeant make sense to make media companies bear the brunt of misinformation or cyberbullying or scamming syndicates.dont throw the baby out with the bathwater. If cyberbullies cause victoms to commit suicide,the onus is not to shift the blame to media companies but to punish the person who viralizes hate speech n toxic words.the best way is to do what China does.Give a warning to the wrongdoer to desist or face the music.Ask MCMC to issue a lifelong ban for the user from using any form of social media network be it Twitter,Facebook or Tik Tok as the user has violated the privilege to use social media in a responsible manner.its more scary to the user to be losing the ability to connect with others and can only use the phone or sms function.just cut off the wrong doer to access to all social media and its worse than a fine or jail term. the same goes for scam syndicates or spreaders of misinformation and disinformation.Social media is just a tool for communication and the onus is on the user not to weaponize words by cyberbullying or doing fraudulent acts.As AI gets more sophisticated deep fakes will be prevalent so what do you do.Have better filter or ban the use of AI?Why regulate the information superhighway by putting in a kill switch?educate users to be media savvy is a wiser option. like the novel Farenheit.451 by Ray Bradbury ,burn all libraries as books are dangerous tools of propaganda.so outlaw all books. I think about it again and feel that if users abuse the social media to scam,bully n harrassthen the user should be punished by both the government with a fine or jail term and by the social media provider by blacklisting the user by banning his acopunts from all platforms?But what will happen if the government misuse its power to control freedom of expression by editting,censoring and blocking the voices of dissidents or vociferous critics?Can the govt be sued for repressive actions?How can individual citizens civil rights be safeguatded against governmental overzealous moral policing or trampling on human rights of civilians? When the gateway to information is controlled by a few hegemonic countries,then the freedom to express diverse views can be suppressed.even the PMXviews on social media can be censored and blackout by hegemonic social media providers that rule the information superhighway.It was far sighted leadership of China government to develop ots own software platform for social media like Wechat or Douyinso that diverse multicultural viewpoints can be seenn heard.Social media network is part of propaganda tool for the mass manufacture of consent as proposed by Noam Chomsky.we should be on guard on .the creation of thought police or the existence of moral policing.When how you dress or think is not the right of individual but under external control of institutions,then why exist in a state.be a nomad or tribe like how power is deregulated in ancient societies.

New books

i walked into a most dangerous store and came out pokai and real broke as hell. i had BMW,no i didnt get a BMW but burnt my wallet.thought ill just browse through some new books when i got hooked by these 3 books after reading the blurb.one is by a south korean monk Haemin Sunim who infuses Buddhist philipsophy in the self help book.the drawings were exquisite n the words offer comfort to us to look for beauty in the most imperfect things so its akin to Zen idea of wahi sabi.that which is broken has its own beauty and so accept it and make the best out of it.. the other book by Japanese writer Michiko Aoyama had an intriguing title.What you are looking for is in the library.the blurb says the tale shows how by listening to your heart,seizing opportunities and reaching out we can fulfil our dreams such optimism is like wait and you will see the light at the end of the tunnel. The final book The Koro Riot is by a Malay author Faisal Tehrani who uses this pen name that sounds ominous like tyranny or terror ini.its a political satire on a fictional nation and sounds like a fantasy horror genre.He seems to be writing in the genre of Kee Thuan Chyes early plays the Swordfish and the concubine,1984 here and Now,the big Purge and We could f@#$!k you Mr Birch.weaving historical tales and current issues,he is giving a thought provoking and teflective analysis of the political scene in Malaysia.What do you expect when the title says No more bullshit,please.We're all Malaysians .

Captain kitty has one year old birthday party

i made a tuna flake mousse cake with mashed potato,cucumber slices,carrot n blueberry in the shape of a fish for his birthday cake.he seemed to sense the excitement i felt n kept following me back and forth to the kitchen.then when i gave him his blue furry toy rat with feathers n a rattling ball,he played with it non stop.he was so tired that he fell fast asleep on the sofa

My fur baby has grown to be a fat cat at 5 kg at a year old.hes my pride and joy.

Peace park

with kiara park closed,people are moving to peace park.hard to find a parking there .but serene trees n birds chirping is my ikigai.love the yellow water lilies blooming .i will leave when sun gets too hot.bloody crazy climate change.at 10am temperature hit 31 degree celsius and 33oC an hour later.i think 10am is the max so i leave when it is 30oC.before i get heatstroke.

Discovered sports shop declathon

My fitness freak buddies in bukit kiara park recommended declathon as the go to place for sports equipment so it was a fitness haven when i saw they had a sale for running shoes and i bought the kalenji trail sports shoe as it was lightweight and had good grip.i absolutely love it when i went zumba twisting,skipping n jumping on it.then i found another declathon store in one utama mall bigger than the last one i went to.great ,awesome i found a well designed swim bikini that is functional and well designed for vigourous aqua aerobics workout in the swimming pool.no more itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini.bloody impractical wisps of cloths that scare the shit out of me as the straps are so narrow and the hook at the back made of plastic and turns brittle in chlorine .when i do vigorous movement in water,the bra strap threatens to snap .die die lor mati malu if it breaks.the plastic hook is gonna snap if i wave my arms too fast.another wardrobe malfunction is dangerous especially if im swimming with strong ocean waves crashing onto shore .so no string bikini or high cut bikini bottom that hardly cover the pussy. i found the perfect bikini for aqua aerobics at declathon.its tested for endurance and resistance in the water and now time to get a pool noodle.im so excited to try aqua aerobic as its low impact on joints.

Catnip leads to cat nap

i bought a wonderful soothing toy for my pussy.its an ice cream cone with a ball of catnip.it worked its magic on pussy as after he licked it,he became less frisky n hyperactive.he cat loafed watching me do meal prep n didnt do zoomie or jump on dining table he was so chill n relaxed that when i took a catnap,he followed me to cat n

ap with me its magic catnip.he even hugged me mmmmn he looked so sweet .

Best Ong Huat n Kuat energy drink

Sunday is Funday.The Zumba session in the park was so fun and we Malaysians of all races Indian ,Malay n Chinese exercise as one Malaysia. i felt the heart pounding and tons of sweat pouring down my neck and back like crazy.i was so dehydrated despite drinking my small bottle of mineral water so when i reached home,time to make my own energy drink.its my concoction of the Witch's Brew.Better than Red Bull and Carabao.its equal parts tigers beer,Tonic drink 100 plus and Vita 1,000 mg lemon juice vitamin C and juice n zest of 1 fresh lemon.After gulping 2 glasses my body felt less parched n heated up.its Vitamin B complex,Vitamin C and electrolyte.Huat,Huat Kuat Kuat seperti Hari hari Mau. the big pisang tanduk i bought i cooked indonesian hoen kwe cake with coconut milk lined with banana slices n jackfruit.the bananas were firm unlike usual banana that become soggy n mushy when hot mixture is poured on it.my verdict is better than the italian pannacotta of heavy cream as the hoen kwe flour is gluten free made of mung bean n corn flour n i used stevia sugar.the kuoh is soft n wobbly with crunchy jackfruit n firm banana.best la

Selective Amnesia

As a former aging Prime Minister indicates,selective amnesia occurs when memory lapses cause one to forget historical facts which are unfavourable to ones good reputation.History is a convenient political tool to reinvent oneself. To the ultra ethno nationalist,lets look at some archeological sites predating the Melaka sultanate.in the land where monsoons meet,the coastal cities of Malaysia from Kedah to Melaka shows the thriving maritime trade of southeast asia for traders from Middle East,India and China and a harmonious multiculturalism showing communities early commercial activity manufacturing glass beads and iron foundry making metalware.the existence of artifacts in Lembah Bujang in Kedah is even older than that of Angkor Wat n Borobodor and predates the Srivijiya and Majapahit empires.the Chola kingdom in south India once extended its influence to. Indonesian islands and these coastal cities of Malaysia.so its a misconception to think that the Indians were brought into Malaya by the British colonial masters as migrant workers.Looking at the shipwreck of Nanhai and ships loaded with pottery from China kilns show that trade with Ming dynasty was ongoing with Chinese traders establishing ties with local communities. it would be good if Lembah Bujang can get Unesco cultural heritage status and museums set up so tourists can view the oldest civilization in South East Asia from pre history to proto history.If Angkor Wat and Borobodor draw hordes of tourists,its time to promote a historical heritage of Malaysia too.look at Xian and the archealogical site of tomb of terrracotta warriors.why cant the candi of Kedah get similar tecognition.
