A fusion city

Cityscape

revitalise the cities
everything is geared indoors
how to create pockets of outdoors
where children can roam,explore,scream
where young can play,outdoor performances of music and dance

A fusion city of past preserved and futuristic designs
grey slabs of concrete
revitalised

Wish List for RE generation

Less dirty jokes and dirty politics at our expense

More recreational spaces,more natural,open spaces,more SAFE spaces

Community centres for interaction of all regardless of race or religion with free exercise classes for the elderly,cookery classes,dance and music facilities for youths instead of mat rempits and mall rats,training in traditional batik crafts,basket weaving,painting etc,IT facilities for young and old to bridge the digital divide

Non partisan media for critical dissemination of knowledge and not more shopping catalogues,no thank you

A Safe and Sound Environment

Mengekalkan ketenteraman agar rakyat jelata boleh meneruskan pekerjaan
Dalam keadaan ekonomi yang semakin bercabar and pesiangan dari negara lain yang lebih menarik
kekecohan hanya membawa kehilangan keyakinan pelabur asing
Maka keruntuhan ekonomi akan menjejas setiap orang
Masa inilah untuk menjalin perhubungan erat antara sektor awam and swasta
Berganding bahu bagi menyediakan lebih peluang pekerjaan kepada pemuda negara
Agak masa depan mereka masih cerah
atau kita akan kehilangan lebih orang muda ,berhijrah memajukan masa depan lain negara

Zeitgeist -The Spirit of The Time

It's time to stand up and be counted
It's time to defend our common space from the racists and sexists
It's time to claim the humanity
That links us to a common destiny

It's the day of reckoning
When the wronged cannot be silenced
When dark deeds cannot be whitewashed
When those with the wherewithal are above the law

It stands to reason
That's the time
that will turn the tide
From every side
To the rightful.

How should power sharing be distributed

What should be the primary duty of representatives of the armed forces?

To prevent the abuse of power by armed forces in the running of a government democratically elected,how can the authority to mobilize soldiers to engage in armed conflicts be decentralized?

Should the public sectors be involved in competition with the private sector?

What should be the primary responsibilities of the public sector-macro management of economic policies and should they be involved in running mega corporations which seek to compete with the private sectors in terms of funding and market share so much so that the playing field is not level?

The 7 Deadly Sins

Commerce without morality

1. The parents dare not let our children out to play with friends in public spaces without constant surveillance by adults.( Missing out the fun of outdoor play and robbed of childhood innocence)
