		<description>Hence guys if you are like those self-centred  Umnoputras,you just spend money extravaggantly as its other people money but when it&#039;s their own hard earned  ones,you find these guys fingers hardly able to reach their back pocket.Hi did you guys ever heard,an ex-cm in the early 70s in a nite club in KK simply offer RM one million to a singer for a song ? Hence what&#039;s RM.one million worths nowadays ? To those big bosses,Rm50 million is nothing.One huge project from TAIKO ,these boss/es would reap easily a profit of 700 million. Just calculate 3-6 projects of this kind,how much these &quot;towkeys&quot; would gain in return for some 100 millions donation.It&#039;s a kind of goliath money gain and david money spent. Who doesn&#039;t want that !</description>

		<description>Well.ekompute and Speakup,get near someone who is pretty closed to V.Tan and you know I&#039;m not exaggerating the figure of 50 million ringgit each especially the three ungrateful frogs of Perak.Well not all Aduns would be paid that much,it&#039;s all depend on the situation and circumstances.Who&#039;s talking about Umno&#039;s money,the real money comes from top corporate leaders who get huge government contacts worth billions of ringgit through negotiation only.In return as an appreciation,these guys help Umno/bn to pay off such money to such people like the three frogs I just mentioned and for other Umno/Bn activities. Hence it&#039;s your money or our money which paid to all these greedy and ungrateful people.</description>

          ekompute … the honest never get rich. I had opportunities to make money, I never bothered to. So am financially an average person only.
         &lt;/blockquote&gt;

&quot;An average person&quot;, and some more &quot;only&quot;? Average enough laaa. Me, I am poorer than a church mouse. And to add insult to injury, my ex-boss calls me &quot;Straight Intestine&quot;, LOL. He says &quot;straight until intestine also straight&quot;. I supposed the synonym for that nick is &quot;damned b.l.o.o.d.y stupid&quot;, LOL. Lest it be mistaken, we have great mutual respect for each other. I have the highest respect for him. He has shown me that one can also become rich through hardwork and a high level of honesty and integrity.</description>

Let&#039;s not bother to talk so much about DSAI, how can you trust someone like him? When he was at the opening of the Penang UMNO building he pledged his allegiance to DrM, all that time he prepared a crony list of DrM but it was DrM that released DSAI&#039;s crony list. So we wanna trust that same man? Hahahahaahahahaa ...</description>

		<description>A beautiful quote from Bob Marley: “Don&#039;t gain the world and lose your soul, wisdom is better than silver or gold...” 

I hope all of you guys follow that priceless advice. Give me the silver and gold, and I will gladly give you all the wisdom I have (that is, if I have any) without hesitation, LOL.</description>

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-190576&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;SpeakUp&lt;/a&gt; :&lt;/strong&gt;You resisted RM100K? Hmmmm … I wonder if I will resist RM5M. I also know why you say RM50M is better than naked woman, with the RM50M it will be WOMEN! Hahahahahaaha …
         &lt;/blockquote&gt;

RM100,000? Oh my, did I exaggerate?!!! Actually, it was RM88,000 to double-cross my company in one deal. And need I say what race or even dialect that offers me that amount?

When I first started work, one of my suppliers offered to give me a monthly allowance that was almost twice my salary (construction industry, you know laaa.... corruption big time!). And I thought that I was Mr Clean. 

I even believe that RM5 million will not move me. But RM50 million??? Well, that guy must be silly to pay me 5 times my price, LOL. I will quickly let go of ALL my principles if they pay me only RM10 million. I will even say &quot;wow-wow&quot; if they ask me to bark.

So now you know why Anwar fail to get any BN ADUNs to cross over. Not enough money power to fight with people. He thinks he is still in BN, LOL. That strategy can only work for BN, not when you are outside. When you are outside, your only weapon is to talk about principles, kekekeke.... oppphsss, sorry, that was my toes laughing, old toes making a lot of creaking sound.</description>

          ekompute … I doubt its RM50M, its not worth it but its not RM500K for sure. I can tell you Toyo’s house is not RM24M but its not RM3M too la … same old coffeeshop rumours.
You resisted RM100K? Hmmmm … I wonder if I will resist RM5M. I also know why you say RM50M is better than naked woman, with the RM50M it will be WOMEN! Hahahahahaaha …
         &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Hi SpeakUp, what you say makes a lot of sense. Things tend to get exaggerated. George Bernard Shaw was reputed to have told this story... I am recalling from memory, not exactly his words, but you will get the gist:

&quot;Will you sleep with me for one night if I pay you $1 million?&quot; he asked a woman.

&quot;Well, yes,&quot; the woman replied without hesitation.

&quot;How about half a million?&quot;

The woman hesitated and then replied, &quot;Why not?&quot;

&quot;How about $50?&quot;

The woman got angry and retorted, &quot;What do you think I am?&quot;

To this, George Bernard Shaw answered coolly, &quot;Well, I thought we have settled that. The question that now remains is just the price.&quot;</description>

          Hi Speakup,talking about PR imcompetent Aduns and MPs,it’s a pity that some of these PR ybs have fallen but I think it’s not due to their imcompetency rather they were lured by temptation.Sometime,many capable people if not all,are carried away by temptation from the devil.The devil in this case (ybs flogging) was the iresistable Umno/Bn who offered 50 million ringgit each plus scott-free all corruption charges.In this material world,it’s pretty tough to find,especially in Malaysia,among the present core of politicians and even would be politicians,a kind of devil/money proof person/s to join in the arena of politic to serve the country.No matter who runs the government,corruption will stay on,the choice is between BN and PR and it’s up to us,the voters to choose the lessor of the evil and in the current political scenario BN is the much much evil one,hence you have my tip as to whom you may wish to vote in the 13 GE.
         &lt;/blockquote&gt;
Frankyapp … sorry la, I disagree to a certain degree. People like Johari … Wee … Nordin etc etc etc. They have not been bought. Just plain incompetent.
         &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Wahhh, RM50 million? That is a strong allegation but if it is true, I don&#039;t think I can resist either. It&#039;s more tempting than having a naked woman in front of you. I have resisted RM100,000 before but I don&#039;t think I can resist RM50 million. Fortunately for all of you, I am not in politics. 

Never, never put oneself in a tempting position, otherwise all our principles will fly with the wind and we will be left rationalizing, rationalizing and rationalizing, even to ourselves. Is that why Tun Mahathir started chedet.co.cc? By the way, Tun was a very idealistic man when he first became Prime Minister. ABC. Bersih, Cekap dan Amanah! And now? Cakap Besar Pecah Amanah! LOL. He fell to the devil too.

(P/S: RM50 million is a believable figure because nowadays UMNO is playing high stakes by the billions, and millions to them is just pocket change.)</description>

Such a man  can never stop anyone to speak up freely..unless you brand him a hypocrite.
         &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Hi monsterballssgoh, why unless you brand him a hypocrite? Because he cannot defend himself if anyone says so? Well, if that is the case, LKS has something to learn from Richard Nixon who said: &quot;People have got to know whether or not their President is a crook. Well, I&#039;m not a crook.&quot; LOL</description>

          Hi Speakup,talking about PR imcompetent Aduns and MPs,it’s a pity that some of these PR ybs have fallen but I think it’s not due to their imcompetency rather they were lured by temptation.Sometime,many capable people if not all,are carried away by temptation from the devil.The devil in this case (ybs flogging) was the iresistable Umno/Bn who offered 50 million ringgit each plus scott-free all corruption charges.In this material world,it’s pretty tough to find,especially in Malaysia,among the present core of politicians and even would be politicians,a kind of devil/money proof person/s to join in the arena of politic to serve the country.No matter who runs the government,corruption will stay on,the choice is between BN and PR and it’s up to us,the voters to choose the lessor of the evil and in the current political scenario BN is the much much evil one,hence you have my tip as to whom you may wish to vote in the 13 GE.
         &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Frankyapp ... sorry la, I disagree to a certain degree. People like Johari ... Wee ... Nordin etc etc etc. They have not been bought. Just plain incompetent.</description>

         &lt;/blockquote&gt;

There was one post that I did comment about DAP and it disappeared without me knowing the actually reason. It was not a hard attack, just a gentle comment because being Asian, I still believe that when you go to people&#039;s house, you must not speak too bluntly. The same goes when I write in chedet.co.cc. I tone down what I say to Mahathir, but when I repeat it here, I speak my mind bluntly. 

I don&#039;t see why calling LKS a hypocrite should be censored. In my blog, I welcome such accusations because all I have to do is asked them to substantiate. And you know those people who call others names, they often talk without using their head... they use their heart, and when you ask them to substantiate, they can&#039;t and just disappear. Or else, they spew more rubbish. And if it is rubbish, I still publish it to show the whole world what rubbish he is.

If you did not miss one of my previous post, I did ask Mahathir whether he considers himself a hypocrite by moderating every post while at the same time championing no censorship in cyberspace. I don&#039;t call him a hypocrite. I ask him whether he considers himself, given the contradiction I pointed out, LOL.</description>

          ekompute…The above is my third attempt…to get approval.
Notice the word.”sh..t”…. not complete?
Complete it…you get moderated.
         &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Hi monsterballssgoh, s.h.i.t. is not allowed in most forums. It is quite standard practice and that&#039;s why I always give it the Malay spelling of syit, LOL. 

Actually, it is not good to write like that but somehow, there is no ohhmmm if you don&#039;t write like that, hahaha. Anyway, my grouses is not related to that. As a matter of fact, my short comments which don&#039;t require much thinking always get approved. It is those that I put in a lot more  effort that get moderated and when I checked the next day, and the next... it is still not released and finally disappears.

Anyway, I shouldn&#039;t be complaining so much. After all, like what BN politicians say, &quot;You don&#039;t like, you get out of Malaysia laaaaa,&quot; LOL.</description>

		<description>ekompute...Renovations done are inspected by serious government staffs in the good old days...to see...no renovations are done..breaking health rules and laws.
Nowadays...no such thing....especially to Muslim houses.
Here in USJ Subang Jaya...you will find all sorts of renovations...and Muslims simply love to renovate with easy money ..fell from heaven.
No joke...3 Muslims houses in USJ 2/4 are competing with each other for two renovations per year...and each renovation...takes more than one month..and these are terrace houses.
Drive along the bangalows...almost all are owned by Malays....and mostly police officers..and when they throw a party.they will put out road blocks..with no considerations to others.
This has gone on for years...but of late....seems to be more quiet...and few houses empty.
But renovations are their favourites.
You can see...easy come...easy go type of attitudes..with no fear...to be questioned..where money come from.
No checking after renovations....and poor neighbors cannot complaint..nor say anything.
My Malay rich  neighbor cemented my corner lot outside land...to park his cars..without asking permission from me. I got mad and put huge pots of flowers outside...to beat his system!
Thank God...house sold recently to a more considerate neighbor.</description>

		<description>hahahahaha....I noticed you beat the formula with the word...&quot;siht&quot;!!
Forget about advanced ways to clean drains and keep country clean.
Even in backward Haadyai...you find most advanced huge vehicle cleaning the roads  and drains..at 5am...automatically.
I am tired to compare our country with backward neighbors...one by one...getting more advanced than Malaysia...because the government is much much more sincere than ours.
Can you imagine farmers.. fishermen...taxi drivers..become ministers....getting elected to be law makers?</description>

		<description>Hey monsterball - just a question about your comment. I notice after the builder did some renovations to my house here near PD that he extended the kitchen up to the rear perimeter of the plot, like many of the neighbours. I notice - like many of my neighbours - that the kitchen sink waste empties into the storm drain now. Before the renovation, the sink waste went into the foul drain. I see two of my neighbours have moved their downstairs toilets into the back corner of their renovation and now even the waste from the toilet empties into the storm drain! We all have our kitchen windows above that drain, so it can be a bit of a challenge knowing what dinner will taste like when preparing it next to the window!

I know in England if you route foul waste to a surface water drain, a helicopter will appear in the sky and the Environment Agency will abseil down and blow your house up, but I guess the rules are more relaxed here? When I realised what the builder had done, I considered having the waste moved back to the foul drain, but I would have to dig up the floor of the house to do it!

Just thought I&#039;d offer my 10sen - you&#039;re not the only one whose drain smells of siht.</description>
