Somewhere inside My Kitchen

Hi folks! I'm Palastine, the retard standing on my right is Israel and I hate him.

Mom loves Israel more than me. She feeds him with sugar while stuffing me with thin air. We quarrel almost every single day for territory rights in our shelve but Mom always throw me into the back of Soy Sauce whenever Israel complaints to her.

But we learn how to live with it. We don't fight and we don't push each other down the shelve because we know we are part of the Kitchen. The kitchen needs us and we need the Kitchen.

Therefore, we learn to accommodate one another for the sake of the Kitchen.


Heal the Kitchen,
make it a better place
for you and for me
and the entire Kitchen race.

There are people eating
if you care enough
for the food tasting.

Make a better place
for you and for me.


STOP THE WAR!

Israeli Assault on Gaza

OK, Israeli assault on the Gaza is nothing new now. It has lasted for about 2 weeks since the first air strike. Now, let's see how U.S. reacts to the issue... Quoted from Channelnewsasia.

US President George W. Bush, in remarks to be broadcast on Saturday, urged all able parties to press Hamas to stop firing rockets at Israel and secure a lasting ceasefire, after a week of heavy Israeli air strikes on the Gaza Strip.

His administration meanwhile gave Israel free rein over whether to send ground troops into Gaza, despite growing criticism over its handling of a conflict that has killed at least 436 Palestinians and left 2,290 others wounded...

...Bush said the Israeli strikes were in self-defense after Hamas let a six-month ceasefire lapse on December 19 and fired rockets at Israel...

Zbigniew Brzezinski, who was national security adviser for US president Jimmy Carter, told CNN television that Rice's remarks "clearly show that the US policy right now is completely bankrupt" and the Israeli offensive "will further radicalise the Palestinians"...

...But the US president-elect has kept silent on the latest phase of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with his aides saying their boss was "monitoring" the situation.

So, it's like a child's game la. I slap your face, then you slap me back. I wanna have a greater revenge, I ask my big brother to slap you again. You wanna have an even greater revenge, but obviously you are nothing compared to the fist of my bigger brother, you start throwing stink bomb into my house. And the game goes on and on...

With regards to this matter, I have a song to every reader to this blog (Well, probably none,but it's okay). What a nice way to start my first entry of the year...

Indo's Take-it-or-leave-it

Source: Channelnewsasia

Foreign drug companies can quit Indonesia if they do not like new rules requiring them to have local production facilities, Health Minister Siti Fadilah Supari said on Monday.

"If they want to get licences (to sell their products) they have to invest here also, not just take advantage of the Indonesian market," Supari told Dow Jones Newswires.

"They can't just operate like a retailer here, with an office size that's three metres by three and make billions of rupiah. That is not fair."

Under the new rules, foreign companies have a two-year grace period in which to set up production facilities.

Those who fail to do so would be banned from selling their products or distributing them through companies that do have plants in Indonesia.

"If they want to go away, go ahead," she said. She added that India and China had already enacted such requirements.

There are 29 international pharmaceutical companies marketing their products in Indonesia, with total market share of 25 percent.

OK, this Supari woman said foreign pharmaceutical companies will be given two years to build a pharmaceutical production plant or their products will be banned from being sold in Indonesian market.

Sometimes I do wonder if politicians or ministers actually consult with specialists before they make any statement or impose a law. Two years to build a plant or you'll be banned? Perhaps they think that building a plant is just another LEGO game. Stack some bricks together, install some plastic reactor tanks and rubber pipes and get the pharmaceutical active ingredient from their home garden. So easy huh? Even a 3-year-old kid knows how to do it.

Here comes the logic, getting a sound reaction pathway takes sometime. Next, you have to consider how to conduct the reaction in a suitable reactor configuration, temperature, pressure, etc. Then, linking all the little pieces of components like pumps, reactors, separators, pipes... together. After that, coming out with control and safety measures, like temperature control. OK, assume all these could be done within 5 months (I bet your reactor may explode anytime). I certainly believe it'd take sometime to build the plant too. Again, assume you could build your plant in 5-month time (now your entire plant may collapse anytime). Finally, you plant is ready to start operating. What about regulations? People somehow forgot the fact that those DRUGS are not cat food leh... Countries like Singapore require a least 1 year (for a well known products with adequate safety records) to get your drug approved. Now, we are talking about drugs produced from new given-only-freaking-two-years-to-build plant. What do you think?

If you want people to transfer technologies and create jobs, you must at least let people to be adequately prepared, mustn't you? Yeah, I'll just build a packaging plant to hire some workers to paste labels on boxes and bottles. Come on, it's still a plant! If you were me, would you buy a drug produced from a given-only-freaking-two-years-to-build plant? No, right? It would only harm Indo's drug reliability.

Good luck everyone.

OK, so this is the woman who suggested the rule:

A Woman then Man and Finally Pregnant Man

I saw this piece of interesting news at The Times Online, and it sounds like this...

Thomas Beatie, a married man who used to be a woman, is pregnant with a baby girl

...“How does it feel to be a pregnant man? Incredible,” wrote Thomas Beatie, 34, from the Pacific North West of the United States...

...“Despite the fact that my belly is growing with a new life inside me, I am stable and confident being the man that I am.”

...............................

I ought to read the title 3 times to get myself right and when I read the first few paragraphs, I was like... (speechless) and I continued to read on...

...Mr Beatie’s first successful insemination ended in a life-threatening ectopic pregnancy with triplets that required surgery, resulting in the loss of all his embryos and his right Fallopian tube. “When my brother found out about my loss, he said, ‘It’s a good thing that happened. Who knows what kind of monster it would have been?’,” he wrote...

..Dr Masterson said, however, that transgendered men face special health risks resulting from their sex change. “It’s really important that he doesn’t take any testosterone early on in the pregnancy and later on,” she said. “That can cause male-type characteristics in the female baby.” ...

...............................

‘Who knows what kind of monster it would have been?’ OMG for a brother to say that but LOL and it could be true; if he accidentally took a testosterone injection during his pregnancy and boooom - a baby girl with penis. So poor thing. (It's so irritating and troublesome to make all the "he"s and "his"s italic)

Nonetheless, what will the baby girl think when she has grown up? Will she be able to accept it? Will she be granted the birthright that she deserves? Will she be blessed by the community? She may have to face unnecessary discrimination from the society in the future like:

"Who is your mother?"
"My father"
"Do you get what I mean? Who is your mother?!"
"Can't you understand English, can you? I said my father!"
=.=

Alright, anyway, we are not in the position to judge other people. All the best to the Beatie family.

They Warn Us and We Blast Them Back

Remember how humorous Bolehland's Dato Seri Syed Hamid Albar was in the HardTalk program broadcasted on Thursday 13 September 2007? If you've missed that out, you can check it out here. Everyone was saying how good our Dato's Engrish is back then. (his English is still very good now, that's why I use present tense - my Engrend no good)

OK, back to topic, Annuar Ibrahim was accused for sodomizing one of his young mail aide not long ago and based on this news, I believe the States are questioning about how the government is handling the case. Check the news here.

Malaysia has reportedly blasted the United States for questioning its handling of sex accusations against opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim and said he was a "snitch" for America.

The United States said Monday it would oppose any politically motivated investigation or prosecution of Anwar...

..."America should not interfere with a (legal) exercise in our jurisdiction...," said Home Minister Syed Hamid Albar.

"American has always tried to warn small states like us, but we have never been threatened or felt threatened," he said...

...Syed Hamid also attacked Anwar's allegiances, reviving old allegations that he is too close to Washington. "Anwar is a snitch for America. Every time anything happens, he reports back to America," he said...

................................

I'm sure Annuar called the White House immediately after reading this.

A_n _ _r: Poppa Poppa, they're bullying me
O_b_ _a: 'ho's tha bastard?
A_n _ _r: H_m_ _ the botak-head
O_b_ _a: I'll sen troops to bomb 'is arse up. Dun 'orry UN will back yer arse hole up

They've surely entertained us well. Good job but whatever it is, I'm getting tired of all these jokes.

But anyway, we're not afraid of the Whites because we've been fighting the them for more than 200 years since Portuguese colony. Back then, knowing that we were surely dead, we still fought the Portuguese with our own freaking bare hands, parang and spears while they were holding guns and cannons. They threw us cannon balls and bullets, we fought back by throwing bull dungs and chicken shits! We took all measures to protect our dearest homeland. =) Hooray to the Malays who fought 200 years ago. We were so brave.

Note: "we" in this context means the Malay race because Chinese weren't local at that time (it's like, you won't risk your life for OTHER people's homeland, right?) - that's what the Malaysia History text book says

200 years later today, we are still very brave! We're not afraid of the bastards in the White House, we've NEVER felt threatened!! NOT AT ALL!! *Scream the Red Indian Hero Cheer - Hoo Hoo Haa Haa*

Oh however, when the video of police abusing and forcing Chinese prostitutes to squat-and-stand-while-pulling-their-ears in nude got exposed, we sent our delegates and ministers to China immediately, to apologize, to kowtow, even without Beijing saying a word. I was so impressed - for the first time the government was sooooo efficient.

"Allah" is a Patented Name in Malaysia

I read this from The Washington Times,

Malaysian authorities confiscated Christian children's books, claiming the illustrations of prophets such as Moses and Abraham violate Islamic Shariah law...

...Malaysakini reported the Internal Security Ministry confiscated the literature from bookstores...

..."The officials have offended the sensitivities of Christians because their publications and depictions of their Biblical personalities have now become targets of unscrupulous Muslim officials bent on curtailing religious freedom in the country," Mr. Shastri said...

...The books confiscated from Johor Bahru, Senawang and Ipoh offended the sensibilities of Muslims, officials say, because Islam forbids the depiction of prophets...

...The Malaysian government last month also banned the use of the name "Allah" in any religion other than Islam, local press reports said...

...Allah, the Arabic word for "God," is used by both Christians and Muslims throughout the Arab world...

..............................

The Bolehland is just getting more entertaining, with people doing all kinds of funny things. *speechless* My advise: Please don't use the forbidden name in public again, else you'll end up in jail. So, I suggest we say He-who-must-not-be-named,(sounds familiar isn't it?) since we are banned from calling His name anyway?

Lah Lah Lah...

Quote from Channelnewsasia here:

...Malaysia's opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim on Sunday denounced new allegations of sodomy against him...

..Anwar's Keadilan party said one of his aides, 23-year-old Saiful Bahari, had been arrested and forced to make a report saying the opposition leader had sodomized him...

.."I urge the Malaysian people to stand against the repressive forces that will be unleashed by the government in the coming days and weeks."...

Annuar made a statement that he will have sufficient power to topple the ruling government by August or September and this is what he gets. The Rakyat will surely can't help to think (or at least, I think),

Is the government behind this? (Note: This is not a statement.)

....................................

In response to that, the PM said, (quoted from The Star)

...Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi reiterated that the Barisan Nasional Government was not behind the latest allegation of sodomy against Anwar.

Stating that he was shocked on hearing the police report lodged by an aide of Anwar on Saturday night...

..."We are not (involved). Umno and Barisan Nasional did not plan to trouble, disturb or accuse him.

"I believe even my friends like (Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri) Najib (Tun Razak) did not have any intention to do such a thing to him,"...

....................................

"I believe even the Deputy did not have any intention," he said... =.= I really don't understand why he needs to say this.

After that, Annuar received death threats and now hiding in the Turkish Embassy. What a world...

Its either W.H.O.'s Math SUX or I'm Retard

OK, this is the third straight entry regarding about WHO and I know all of you must be really fed up reading this. Too bad, I just can't help it!

Quoted from WHO Report again and this time, it's Malaysia's turn.

The population of Malaysia was 26.6 million in 2006, with about 42% below 20 years of age and about 67% above 60 years. The...

...The economically productive or working-age population, classified as persons aged 15 to 64 years, accounts for a sizable population of 16 million, or 63.3% of the total population...

....................................

Population below 20 years old = 42%
Population above 60 years old = 67%

and that means...
Population between 20 to 60 years old = -9%
But given that,
Population between 15 to 64 years old = 63.3%

Can you solve this?

tick tock tick tock

After having a deep thought, I shouted:

Eeeewreka!! The solution must be an imaginary number!

Calculation is done based on the assumption that population includes Malaysia Ministry of Imaginary Creatures registered ghosts! Those straying on streets, fighting on the roof tops, sleeping under your bed, everywhere within the physical boundary of Malaysia - GOOD Assumption. I am so proud of myself =)

Poor Grandchildren

From my research on health care market, I found out something interesting, again. If you think Japan is the fastest aging nation, think again...

Quote from The World Health Report 2007 - Korea Country Profile:

...With one of the world’s lowest fertility rates and fastest aging populations, Korea saw its total fertility rate drop to 1.08 in 2005, about a half of the replacement rate.

Korea became an aging society (7% of population old) in 2000 as a result of low fertility and prolonged life expectancy and is expected to become an aged society (14% of population old) by 2018 and a super-aged society (20% of population old) by 2026.

It has taken France 115 years to move from an aging to an aged society and 40 years to move from an aged to a super-aged society, while for the United States of America it took 72 and 16 years, respectively, and 24 and 14 years for Japan. Considering such examples, 18 and 8 years for the Republic of Korea would be the world’s shortest transition...

So, young Korean children nowadays are expected to take care of their 2 parents, 4 grandparents and perhaps 8 great grandparents in addition to their own family when they're grown up later. So poor thing...

When people start noticing the surrounding people are old, they'll start to miss their youth and crave for young people. Perhaps we would expect to see an increase in demand for teen sex from middle-class-middle-age salary men, just like those in Japan. (Err... I drew this conclusion based on the JDrama I'd watched so far, k?) OK, let's spare all the old men, you can also see old aunties carrying fans printed with kawaii young boys in Tokyo MRT. So, Korean parents out there, watch your kids!

Bangladeshi People Die Young, VERY Young

Quote from The World Health Report 2004

...The life expectancy at birth for both sexes increased from 56.1 in 1991 to 64.9 in 2002; male life expectancy has increased from 56.5 years in 1991 to 64.5 years in 2002 and female life expectancy increased from 55.7 years to 65.4 years during the same period...

...The main reason for the rise in life expectancy is the decline in infant and child mortality due to the successful implementation of the immunization programme as well as disease control programmes such as those for ARI and diarrhoeal disease...

.......................................

Imagine yourself at 55 year-old and expected to die one year after retirement... your children rejoice and plan how to use your retirement funds. What a sad sad reality...

But nah, it is much better compared to China (perhaps its common everywhere) 80 years ago, where people had 35 years of life expectancy. You get married at 16 year-old, have your first child at 17, first grandchild at 34 and have coffin as your home at 35.

Don't Mess up with the Aunties

Quoted from The Star: source

Mas Idayu: Are they saying that if all artistes were banned from performing on stage, social illnesses would be eradicated?

......................

Recall my previous post on Messing up with the Sultan, PAS protested against the move of inviting Ella and Mas to perform at Selangor Club because it will promote social ills.

Will crime rate be reduced when a country is governed absolutely by strict rules or religion? - I don't know, but apparently, it seems no.

Ironically, countries like Japan where you can get unisex common bathroom, porn at your fingertip, high school girls' underwear at sales, crazy Heavy Metal bands, some-cool-some-fugly Harajuku fashion, etc. have the lowest crime rate while places like you-know-what-countries occupied by you-know-what-kind-of-people are protesting on the street for some stupid reasons, fighting in the name of you-know-Who, bombing themselves for nothing, in absolute total mess instead of working and earning for a living.

Mas, I'll back your arse up! Good job and thumbs up for you!

Messing up with the Sultan

Every Malaysian knows that Parti Islam SeMalaysia (PAS) is a die-hard Islamic party trying to turn Malaysia into a theocratic state under Islamic rule and Unfortunately/Fortunately (underline the correct answer - 10 points) they are the ruling party of Selangor state, the most advance and wealthiest state in Malaysia.

The Selangor Cup is a annual football match sponsored by Selangor state and this year, rock singer Ella and Mas Idayu are invited to perform the hip-swivelling "dangdut" dance.

The PAS party protests against the performance and threatened to demonstrate at the stadium if the women were allowed to perform.

Sultan was absolutely displeased. Quote:

Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah told The Star daily that the protest over the two women – rock singer Ella and Mas Idayu, who performs the hip-swivelling "dangdut" dance – was "hypocritical" and "trivial".

"If this is going to be so difficult, we might as well hold this annual event in Singapore. I am sure they will be more than happy to play host," he told the daily.

But Sharafuddin said Selangor was not made up of "just PAS and Muslims" and that in any case the two performers were suitable for families. "I don't know what the fuss is all about," he said.

...................................

After getting their office not longer than 6 months, they are messing up with the Sultan - the very person who approves the state's nominee of Chief Minister.

Besides that, I don't think doing something that scares off non-Muslims voteres is a very smart idea either, especially in a state where there are many Chinese residence.

Moreover, the Sultan himself, who is the Islamic figurehead, said "I don't know what the fuss is all about".

It's just plain ridiculous. Soon they'll have separate queues for men and women in McDonalds, no Toto, no BABI (pork), no nightclubs (OMG), no holding hands in public, no spaghetti stripe, no mini skirt (what the heck?!), no kissing in public (else you'll end up spending 5 years in jail), no exposure of hair in shampoo advertisement (I find this absolutely absurd but it happened) and the no-list goes on...
