Here’s food for thought.

That fella is incompetant and everything, and everybody knows that.

But credit where credit is due. The fact that you and I are both writing about this, the fact that you mentioned that you can go out there and talk to a stranger about this and everybody can critisize freely – well, I don’t know about you, but I was brought up well aware of the situation at that time, and was always warned NEVER to talk politics in public, because people might hear you and throw you in jail.

The fact that there are a lot of dissenters out there who are not in jail is an indication of something. Some call it being weak, others call it being liberal.

You and I can make what we like out of it.

p/s: I do know people who believe the main-belakang story, so for those people it isn’t exactly ‘stupid allegations’

Striked up a conversation with a petrol station attendant few weeks ago. He was conned by a Malaysian agency. He was promised a salary of 2K but ended up working as a petrol station attendant with a salary of 500 bucks per month. Back in his homeland, he’s an English and Japanese language teacher! Poor guy… Feel bad for him. He’s been here for close to a year, but thankfully he’ll be going home soon.

I wanted to get a full body check up, but no doctor has four hours spare and a ladder to climb my stomach to do it.
