There is no doubt there is an electricity shortage in Sabah. Or else there won't be so many blackouts. So there is a need for electricity to meet current demand as well as for future growth and development.
How much electricity do we need? It depends on whether we want to have all out industrialization (more electricity is needed) or go for sustainabale development (less is needed). Let's look at these two scenarios using China and New Zealand as case studies.
CHINA
China has decided to go for all out industrialization. it is already "factory to the world" making every kind of product for every country in the world from low-end cheap commodity items to high-end high-tech items. It has a large population and hence large workforce. This means cheap labour. Labour is also cheap because it is relatively uneducated. The higher the education level of the workforce, the higher the wages and the higher the labout cost. But as its workforce gets more educated, wages will rise in tandem.
Electricity is China is being generated by a number of sources. Coal-fired power stations have been the mainstay. They are also a source of environmental pollution, spewing sulphur dioxide and carbon dioxide into the air. As this is not enough, China has also hydro-electricity and nuclear power plants (28 more are under contruction now in China; seven in Vietnam, which is also undergoing rapid economic development, by the way). The Three Gorges dam in China has received a lot of flak from environmentalists due to the environmental impact. The truth is, hydro-electricity on a large scale has huge environmental impact, mostly negative. After 70 years or so, dams silt up and become unuseable. The Hoover Dam on the Colorado River in the US is a case in point. Mini-hydro is a better solution from an environmental point of view. More on China energy outlook here.
NEW ZEALAND
New Zealand has opted for zero industrialization as a matter of policy. This is because it is has a small (but well-educated) population. It is far from major markets (its small population isn't much of a market) so it doesn't make much sense to manufacture anything for export due to its remote location in the South Pacific. New Zealand practises sustainable development. No industrialization means it focuses on the service industry as a source of income. Tourism and education are the mainstays. New Zealand maintains it natural environment and this is what attracts the tourists to New Zealand, not Disneyland-like theme parks, not casinos. White-water rafting, trout fishing, geysers. A worldclass education system means it attracts foreign students to its universities.
Not opting for industrialization means New Zealand's energy needs are less. It is fortunate enough to have geo-thermal energy. More about New Zealand energy outlook here.
SABAH ENERGY
To me, Sabah is closer to the New Zealand model than the China model. This means we should take pointers from what New Zealand has done.
The coal-fired power plant in Sabah will be built, despite what the BN government says. This is because when they announced that they would not build it, they did not give an alternative as to how they are going to get the electricity to meet the demand. They are saying that they are not going to build it just to please the voters and also because they are under pressure from environmentalists worldwide. After the elections, they will revive the issue and build it. Also, sources have revealed that Musa Aman has already tied up the contract to transport the coal for the plant for the next 20 years. This contract is worth hundreds of millions. He's not likely to give it up just like that.
So what are the alternative sources of electricity for Sabah, if not the coal-powered power plant?
• Hydro-electricity from Bakun
Building power transmission lines from Bakun wlll also have an environmental impact
• Sabah gas
Building gas pipe lines wlll also have an environmental impact
• Sarawak gas
Building gas pipe lines wlll also have an environmental impact. In fact, plans are already afoot to build a gas pipeline from the Baram River delta to Kimanis in Sabah
Which of these alternatives are economically viable? Which has the least environmental impact? Remember, gas is a fossil fuel and not sustainable in the long term. Bakun will only last 70 years.
Instead of importing coal for a coal-fired power plant, what's hindering Sabah from having a gas-fired power plant utilizing Sabah's own gas resources? Initially, I had wrongly assumed that the gas pipeline from Bintulu to Kimanis was to bring gas from the Baram River delta to Sabah to generate electricity for Sabah. Instead, it sends Sabah gas to Bintulu. Why is this necessary, when its Sabah that needs the energy?
Are we willing to invest in photo-voltaic panels to harvest energy from the sun? Is wind energy viable? How about mini-hydro? Especially since we do not want to flood Tambatuon and make it into a dam.
Something to think about and come up with answers...

Of blue movies and brown noses
By Mariam Mokhtar Mar 28, 2011
Umno has served up a red herring in the shape of a sex video which was meant
to make us take our eyes off the ball. They wanted us to forget about
Sarawak and its Chief Minister, Taib Mahmud.
The end game of the latest sex video is not an attempt by Umno to hide its
failures or an attempt to bring down opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim. The
true intention of Umno is to preoccupy us and bombard us with the details of
this sex scandal so that we lose our focus - Sarawak.
Umno's attempts to discredit Anwar are getting clumsier and cruder by the
day. It is a deliberate attempt at character assasination by people whose
own reputations are themselves sullied.
Abdul Rahim Thamby Chik is one of the people behind this sex video. He
is allegedly a child rapist and child molester. He is sore that in
1994, his ticket to millions was cut short by his sexual
indiscretions. Instead of being prosecuted, Umno kept him firmly in
the fold, possibly as a "sleeper" to do its dirty work in the future.
Perhaps this is what that sex video is all about.
Rahim had allegedly raped a minor. It was Lim Guan Eng, a DAP MP, who was
jailed for sedition when he tried to seek justice for this girl. The girl's
grandmother had pleaded with Lim to help her family. She did not go to the
Umno Malays to help her. That must say a lot about what ordinary Malays
think of the political party which is supposedly theirs. The Umno Malays
maintained an unhealthy silence to protect one of their own.
We do not know if Rahim was put up to this latest scandal by Prime Minister
Najib Abdul Razak. Two decades ago, Rahim escaped a heavy jail sentence by
doing a deal with Mahathir. Now, it is time to return the favour and come to
the defence of Umno.
It is quite possible, that if Rahim had refused to help Umno, new
incriminating evidence from the rape of that girl in 1994 would have
materialised. Who says new material cannot be unearthed at such a late
stage? They did it for Teoh Beng Hock, didn't they? The supposed 'suicide
note' appeared months later, when the inquest into his mysterious death was
nearing its conclusion.
This plan which was hatched by Umno is one of several that surfaced in the
last few months. We had Saiful's personal 'sperm bank' and we've been
entertained by Umi Hafilda Ali's failure at passing the virginity test. Now
we have this sex video.
Getting the people titillated
This red herring, the sex video, has been planned with little games in
place. It has got the people titillated. Is it Anwar in the movie or is it
not? Is it Anwar's doppelgänger or is it the despicable Shazryl Eskay
Abdullah? Why was Carcosa selected? Why were the police slow to act? This is
what Umno wanted - to distract us from Sarawak.
The reality is that Najib wants to hide the problems of Sarawak from us.
Taib Mahmud is in trouble. He is suffering from a two pronged attack by
Clare Rewcastle Brown and her weapons of mass deliverance (WMD) - the
Sarawak Report website which details all of Taib's corruption and crooked
business dealings, and Radio Free Sarawak which broadcasts interviews with
ordinary people who have suffered at the hands of Taib.
The white-haired Taib, dubbed 'The Termite', has attracted much criticism
over his unwillingness to step down or to groom his successors. He has also
been hit by successive waves of accusations of corruption and nepotism. The
anti-graft body Transparency International Malaysia has added its voice in
asking the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission to investigate the
allegations.
The problem that Najib faces in Sarawak is Taib's reluctance to hand over
the reins. There are some who believe that Taib should not contest the
polls; others feel that only he is capable of holding the coalition together
and delivering the resource-rich state to Putrajaya, which considers Sarawak
and Sabah as its "fixed-deposit" vote bank.
Umno/BN are afraid of Anwar and Pakatan. There is no doubt of that. One has
only to see the police intervention when Anwar was at a gathering in Gombak
last Friday. The more Najib sends the thugs to silence Anwar, the more
moderate Malaysians will end up supporting Anwar.
Anwar has become a symbol of oppression - his own, and ours. He has been
pilloried and punched by the police before. And yet he has managed to drag
himself up from the floor and become stronger.
Anwar being preoccupied with defending himself against this sex video was so
that he would not be able to concentrate on Sarawak.
Taib running scared
Taib is running scared. He has attempted to enter the cyber-world with
disastrous results. One victim of his foray into this cyber-war was the
proofreader at the Borneo Post. He corrected what he thought was a spelling
error and inadvertently directed online readers to the original 'Sarawak
Report' of Clare Rewcastle Brown. He has been sacked. This is Taib's
desperation and ruthlessness at work.
The battle-lines in Sarawak are already drawn. A few days ago, Snap was
exposed as potential political frogs and would have damaged Pakatan in
Sarawak, just like the political frogs which damaged Pakatan in Perak three
years ago.
Sarawak is causing sleepless nights in Putrajaya and also for Mahathir. Even
Daim, who milked Malaysia dry, has now come out of the woodwork to defend
Umno/BN and Najib.
Sarawak has never experienced a more formidable opposition. In the past,
Taib would have been able to intimidate, imprison or eliminate his
opponents, if necessary. Najib's sex video has backfired but there will be
other dirty tactics up BN's sleeves.
Anwar has galvanised Pakatan to such a degree that trying to topple him has
become an impossible undertaking; a string of bounty hunters will get their
shoulders to the task, to repay favours owed to Mahathir.
We can expect more fireworks in the run-up to Sarawak polling day.

ELECTRICITY DEMAND IN SABAH
ELECTRICITY DEMAND IN SABAH
There is no doubt there is an electricity shortage in Sabah. Or else there won't be so many blackouts. So there is a need for electricity to meet current demand as well as for future growth and development.
How much electricity do we need? It depends on whether we want to have all out industrialization (more electricity is needed) or go for sustainabale development (less is needed). Let's look at these two scenarios using China and New Zealand as case studies.
CHINA
China has decided to go for all out industrialization. it is already "factory to the world" making every kind of product for every country in the world from low-end cheap commodity items to high-end high-tech items. It has a large population and hence large workforce. This means cheap labour. Labour is also cheap because it is relatively uneducated. The higher the education level of the workforce, the higher the wages and the higher the labout cost. But as its workforce gets more educated, wages will rise in tandem.
Electricity is China is being generated by a number of sources. Coal-fired power stations have been the mainstay. They are also a source of environmental pollution, spewing sulphur dioxide and carbon dioxide into the air. As this is not enough, China has also hydro-electricity and nuclear power plants (28 more are under contruction now in China; seven in Vietnam, which is also undergoing rapid economic development, by the way). The Three Gorges dam in China has received a lot of flak from environmentalists due to the environmental impact. The truth is, hydro-electricity on a large scale has huge environmental impact, mostly negative. After 70 years or so, dams silt up and become unuseable. The Hoover Dam on the Colorado River in the US is a case in point. Mini-hydro is a better solution from an environmental point of view. More on China energy outlook here.
NEW ZEALAND
New Zealand has opted for zero industrialization as a matter of policy. This is because it is has a small (but well-educated) population. It is far from major markets (its small population isn't much of a market) so it doesn't make much sense to manufacture anything for export due to its remote location in the South Pacific. New Zealand practises sustainable development. No industrialization means it focuses on the service industry as a source of income. Tourism and education are the mainstays. New Zealand maintains it natural environment and this is what attracts the tourists to New Zealand, not Disneyland-like theme parks, not casinos. White-water rafting, trout fishing, geysers. A worldclass education system means it attracts foreign students to its universities.
Not opting for industrialization means New Zealand's energy needs are less. It is fortunate enough to have geo-thermal energy. More about New Zealand energy outlook here.
SABAH ENERGY
To me, Sabah is closer to the New Zealand model than the China model. this means we should take pointers from what New Zealand has done.

This is because when they announced that they will not build it, they did not give an alternative as to how they are going to get the electricity to meet the demand.

Najib Razak tried to sodomise me last night
Najib Razak tried to sodomize me last night. Luckily, Rosmah Mansor came to the rescue, putting on a strap-on dildo and sodomizing her husband instead. I had diarrhea and shat over the both of them. I went to Brickfields Police Station to make a police report and statutory declaration but the station already demolished... Then, I woke up. Pyrexia from election fever does funny things to the mind!
POLITICS: Bahasa Melayu Bible Issue
PETALING JAYA, March 26, 2011: A group of Christians from the Coalition of Malaysian Christians Petaling Jaya (COMC) has demanded for an immediate and unreserved public apology from the Malaysian Government, the Home Ministry in particular, over the recent episode of impounding and stamping of of 35,100 Bahasa Malaysia bibles.
Such demand is one of the seven Rectifications sought from the Government and the Home Ministry by the Group.
The other rectifications sought are:
To return the Al-Kitab to the publisher and replace them with new Al-Kitab;
That no Al-Kitab be destroyed or further defaced;
That the government bear all costs and give written assurance that such desecration will never happen again;
That the Malaysian Home Ministry will not act on its own without due consultation with the relevant Christian representative organisations;
That due respect is given to the Al-Kitab by consulting the relevant Christian representative organisations before any external text is inserted in the Bible; and
That 30,000 Malay bibles worth RM78,000 imported by the Sarawak branch of global Christian group, The Gideons, be unconditionally released from Kuching port.
The Group’s spokesman Ronnie Klassen read aloud from a prepared statement during a press conference held here, after it lodged a police report at the Petaling Jaya Section 8 Police Station on Saturday.
The police report was aimed chiefly to demand for a thorough investigation into the said episode, so as to determine the true motive behind such an act which the Group considered a gross travesty of the Constitutional guarantee of religious freedom of the Christian community in Malaysia.
“We do not accept conditions that belittle Christian faith and religion and which contravene Article 11 of the Malaysian constitution and also Article 2 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 1948. We will not accept Muslim views on Christianity and its practice and matters of faith as normative, or link the Al-Kitab row to the Catholic Church’s court case on the right to use “Allah” — the Arabic word for God — in its newspaper. The Al-Kitab and the “Allah” court case are separate issues; and the Federal government has no right to ban the Al-Kitab under the law. Such developments as Christianity being singled out as a threat is unacceptable, as there are no such conditions imposed on the holy books of other religions, including Islam. The Coalition of Malaysian Christians (COMC) seek a just and amicable solution to this matter.
“As Christians of both Protestant and Catholic persuasions, we wish to register our deep hurt and outrage at the Malaysian Home Ministry’s unilateral action of desecration of over 5,100 copies of the Al-Kitab (Bible) stamped with serial numbers, government seals and warnings that the books are meant for Christians only.
“We view this as violation of Article 11 of the Malaysian Constitution, Article 2 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 1948 and the enshrined rights of Malaysian Christians to practice their faith without restriction. This is the first time in Malaysian history that Scriptures of Christians have been deemed illegal and a security threat,” Klassen articulated.
On the stamping of the confiscated Bibles, Klassen said the Group detested the Home Minister Dato Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein’s response, that such was standard practice and not meant to deface the books.
“We find his statement to be incorrect, untrue and misleading. The Christian community and its representative bodies have never agreed to any wording to be endorsed on Bibles to say that it is only meant for Christians. It is an escalation, interference and subjugation of Malaysian Christians and their right to conduct religious education and worship freely,” he contended.
Klassen who is a well-known Sabah-based blogger cum Church activist further noted that the 1982 order issued under the Internal Security Act 1960 did not state that any form of words had to be endorsed on any copy of the Bible in Bahasa Malaysia.
“The latest letter from the Ministry of Home Affairs dated 15 March 2011 is therefore a set of new conditions imposed on the release of the impounded Bibles which is wholly unacceptable to us. This means that the Bahasa Malaysia Bible is now treated as a restricted item, and made subject to the control of the Malaysian Home Ministry and Government. This is wholly offensive and unacceptable to Malaysian Christians,” he stressed.
“Any person who respects the Holy Scriptures of any religion would be appalled by such high-handed and disrespectful action,” he added.
While noting that the Christian community in Malaysia has always acted in good faith and with great patience to find amicable solutions without compromising their fundamental beliefs, he regretted that such good faith has not been reciprocated by the Government.
“It is the government that has moved the goal posts over the years through a systematic imposition of unreasonable conditions and restrictions. Christians are horrified by the arrogance of the Home Ministry and its officials and the contemptuous act of defacing the Al-Kitab is viewed as a sacrilege,” he concluded.
Such demand is one of the seven Rectifications sought from the Government and the Home Ministry by the Group.
The other rectifications sought are:
To return the Al-Kitab to the publisher and replace them with new Al-Kitab;
That no Al-Kitab be destroyed or further defaced;
That the government bear all costs and give written assurance that such desecration will never happen again;
That the Malaysian Home Ministry will not act on its own without due consultation with the relevant Christian representative organisations;
That due respect is given to the Al-Kitab by consulting the relevant Christian representative organisations before any external text is inserted in the Bible; and

“We view this as violation of Article 11 of the Malaysian Constitution, Article 2 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 1948 and the enshrined rights of Malaysian Christians to practice their faith without restriction. This is the first time in Malaysian history that Scriptures of Christians have been deemed illegal and a security threat,” Klassen articulated.
On the stamping of the confiscated Bibles, Klassen said the Group detested the Home Minister Dato Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein’s response, that such was standard practice and not meant to deface the books.
“We find his statement to be incorrect, untrue and misleading. The Christian community and its representative bodies have never agreed to any wording to be endorsed on Bibles to say that it is only meant for Christians. It is an escalation, interference and subjugation of Malaysian Christians and their right to conduct religious education and worship freely,” he contended.
Klassen who is a well-known Sabah-based blogger cum Church activist further noted that the 1982 order issued under the Internal Security Act 1960 did not state that any form of words had to be endorsed on any copy of the Bible in Bahasa Malaysia.
“The latest letter from the Ministry of Home Affairs dated 15 March 2011 is therefore a set of new conditions imposed on the release of the impounded Bibles which is wholly unacceptable to us. This means that the Bahasa Malaysia Bible is now treated as a restricted item, and made subject to the control of the Malaysian Home Ministry and Government. This is wholly offensive and unacceptable to Malaysian Christians,” he stressed.
“Any person who respects the Holy Scriptures of any religion would be appalled by such high-handed and disrespectful action,” he added.
While noting that the Christian community in Malaysia has always acted in good faith and with great patience to find amicable solutions without compromising their fundamental beliefs, he regretted that such good faith has not been reciprocated by the Government.
“It is the government that has moved the goal posts over the years through a systematic imposition of unreasonable conditions and restrictions. Christians are horrified by the arrogance of the Home Ministry and its officials and the contemptuous act of defacing the Al-Kitab is viewed as a sacrilege,” he concluded.

Just like Sodomy II, this latest sex video is about distraction. The grainy sex video showed a man performing sexual acts with a woman. The idea was to identify the man as Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim and hence discredit him.
The main aim behind this video was to distract Malaysians from issues that affect the nation. Another was to divert the attention of Sarawakians from concentrating on the problems that will influence the state elections.
Malaysia is in deep trouble and after 53 years, BN has milked the country dry and divided a once harmonious nation.
The three Umno dim-wits who fabricated lies was never a good idea. But then, who would expect Umno to win the hearts and minds of the people using intellect?
People who are blinded by power can never see where they have gone wrong.
Najib who is so fussy over image, seems to be blinded by his own greed and self-importance. Of only he could see who forms his Cabinet, heads the GLCs or Umno institutions, past and present.
The ringleader of this latest sex video is Rahim Tamby Chik.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rahim_Thamby_Chik
He is the disgraced, former Chief minister of Malacca who allegedly raped a minor and then had to resign. The underage girl's grandmother sought a DAP MP's help to bring Rahim Thamby to trial. That just shows how much trust ordinary Malays have in the elected Umno Malays.
The DAP MP LIM GUAN ENG
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lim_Guan_Eng#Jailed_under_Sedition_Act
was himself thrown into prison. Did any of the other Umno Malays come to the defense of the girl?
Perhaps, the following questions should be incorporated in the history curriculum at school.

With ministers like these in Najib's Sex Cabinet line-up, how could the rakyat trust the government, its courts, the police and its ministers?
Very few of the privileged elite who make up the politically powerful and rich in Malaysia ever get punished.
Now we know why BN maintains its iron grip on Malaysians so that they can continue plundering the country and robbing its rakyat. That is what BN fears most - Anwar and Pakatan.
If you still trust these politicians and follow them blindly, then you are truly UMNO

Some updates from my Pakatan source on the new sex scandal video.....
- The man in the Tape is not Anwar... that much is sure..
but he looks very similar..
- This sex video was actually in Barisan's potential
weapons
to be used in 13th General Elections..
- But what made them dust it off in a hurry and use it
now... its got to do with Sarawak state elections..
- BN's internal polling revealed that BN will be losing
far
too many seats if the state elections due to anger towards Taib
Mahmud..
- BN's internal polling shows that Taib's party PBB
itself
is projected to lose about 50% of its seats.. and SUPP will lose
all
it's seats etc..
- They figured BN will still win.. but with a much
reduced
majority... lose is 2/3 majority and even just win by around
55-60%
majority
- BN needs to win S'wak big time in order to keep as many
Parliament seats in 13th GE..
- So Najib and Muhyiddin both went to see Taib in Sarawak
about 2 weeks ago.. never have the PM and deputy PM gone to visit
a
state together...
- They went to pressure Taib to resign.. and appoint a
caretaker Cm before state elections.. hoping with Taib leaving ..
people will be less angry and they can still win handsomely
- Taib.. it seems assured them he will consider it
seriously.... but.... Taib threw a shocker
- He sent of Najib and Muhyiddin at the airport.. . as
soon
as the plane took off.. Taib called for a press conference in the
airport itself
- He announced that he will dissolve the state assembly
next
week.. and will remain as CM.. and will retire after the elections
after a transition period to enable the new CM to get up to
speed..
- Najib and Muhyiddin got the shocking news.. after they
landed in KLIA.. Taib just showed them the finger..
- Since the state assembly dissolution is announced..
nothing can be done.. and since Pakatan is getting stronger by the
day in S'wak. Something needs to be done..
- They had to dust off Anwar's purported sex tape and
destroy PKR's credibility hoping that people will be wary of
opposition..
- In a hurry.. talk about dumb asses trying to frame
people
without goofing up...
- The rooms that was used to screen the tape to reporters
at
Carcosa was booked... of all people.. by Risda.. a federal govt
agency...
- Risda's chairman is Rahim Thamby Chick.. the guy who
raped
an underaged girl once..
- And the Datuk is also strongly linked to UMNO...
- Then they tried to lure PKR MP's to jump ship by
showing
them the video and of course monetary rewards...
- The room in Carcosa was actually booked by Ketua Umno
Bhg
Bukit Gantang, who is also special officer to Tan Sri Rahim Thamby
Chik. Paid for it by credit card and worse of all.. he asked for a
corporate discount by using his Risda's corporate account.. this
is

By Kim Quek
This article was actually written yesterday (Mar 24), but upon completing the article, I was stunned by the explosive news of the sudden appearance of the trio behind the sex video. Concerned that my article might have been overtaken by this sudden turn of events, I withheld its release yesterday. However, upon a review of the latest events, I find that the technical insights and rationale put forward therein are still valid and pertinent to the issue at hand. I hence present my following article with the hope that it will add to the understanding of this fast evolving drama.
There is one simple way to find out whether ‘Datuk T’s’ pornographic video showing a look-alike of Anwar Ibrahim is a hoax, and that is to go to Anwar’s face book from your own face book account and look for his entries at the time when the video was supposed to be recorded, which is 10:23pm to 10:45pm on Feb 21, 2011.
I just did that, and I found that anwar made entries on that day at 10:40pm, 10:49pm, 10:50pm, for which he received 9 comments, 17 comments, 8 comments respectively. And thereafter, he made another 7 entries, up till 11:028pm. The fact that Anwar was actually posting messages in face book at the relevant time clearly indicates that Anwar couldn’t have been doing what was indicated in the video.
As jokingly exclaimed by Anwar during the press conference on Mar 21, hours after the exposure of the video: How could he be carrying out the sex act and typing on his computer at the same time? Obviously, ‘Datuk T’ had neglected to look up Anwar’s face book before he launched his pornographic piece.
QUESTIONABLE TIME FRAME
Purely on a technical level, another question that puzzled me was: How could so many acts be compressed into the purported duration of 22 minutes as indicated in the video? Journalists who had viewed the video said that the love-making part lasted 17 minutes. This means that within the remaining 5 minutes, the following events had to be completed:
Pre-sex act:
· Anwar look-alike (Mr. X) walked into the room with the conductor who gave instruction to the prostitute who was already waiting there. The conductor left the room.
· The couple undressed.
· Woman went into the bathroom and took a bath, which should include wiping dry with a towel (the undressing and bathroom part of the video was skipped by ‘Datuk T’, but he said the woman took a bath).
Post-sex act:
· Mr.X wiped his lower part with tissue, and went into the bathroom to clean himself, which presumably included washing and wiping dry with a towel.
· Mr. X came out from the bathroom, dressed himself and walked off the room.
It should be obvious that when one tallies up the reasonable time allowed for completing each of these events, the total will far exceed 5 minutes. This conflict of time frames further undermines the credibility of the video clip.
PLOT IMPLAUSIBLE
‘Datuk T’ said that the sex romp took place in a Spa which provides sex in Kuala Lumpur.
Will anyone believe that opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim – who has been subjected incessantly to all sorts of cruel and unjust political persecution for the past 13 years, branded as enemy number one, for which the ruling power has been desperate to see that he is politically annihilated – would even condescend to walk into a place of such disrepute at the peak hours, where he would be instantly recognized by almost everyone present there, not to mention having sex with a prostitute in the same place? Haven’t ‘Datuk T’ and the plotters behind him overstretched their imagination, if they think the people would swallow such a story?
‘Datuk T’ also claimed that Anwar sent him to the room to look for his lost watch.
If Anwar had patronized a prostitute in the room, would he be so foolish as to send someone to the room to look for his watch? Wouldn’t that stupid act amount to a virtual confession to others what misdeed he had done there? And wouldn’t that confession spell the end of his political career? Who will believe that Anwar would value the watch more than his family, his political career and the destiny of his country and his people?
Despite the indefatigable effort of the ruling power to fix Anwar all these years, has it produced an iota of evidence of his political or moral misconduct, such as corruption, abuse of power, religious or moral sins?
If Anwar has shown none of these weaknesses, why should Malaysians believe ‘Datuk T’ in preference over Anwar, when what the former has displayed so far is nothing but crass acts of character assassination that serves the evil design of his political masters?

Who will believe that Anwar would value the watch more than his family, his political career and the destiny of his country and his people?
Despite the indefatigable effort of the ruling power to fix Anwar all these years, has it produced an iota of evidence of his political or moral misconduct, such as corruption, abuse of power, religious or moral sins?
If Anwar has shown none of these weaknesses, why should Malaysians believe ‘Datuk T’ in preference over Anwar, when what the former has displayed so far is nothing but crass acts of character assassination that serves the evil design of his political masters?

So, how?
Malaysians don't seem to want coal-fired power plants. In fact, they don't seem to want any power plant fueled by fossil fuels. Neither do they want nuclear power plants. Hydro-electricity has its limitations. Bakun necessitated huge tracts of land to be inundated with water.
So, how?
Is the average Malaysian willing to cut down on electricity consumption? Are they willing to stop using air-conditioning? Are there any architects left who are competent in designing homes with cross-ventilation and air scoops, obviating the need for air-conditioning?

Introduction
I have started a closed Facebook group for stakeholders in a 2-acre development I am planning in Sungai Penchala, 60000 KUALA LUMPUR. I use the term stakeholder broadly and may mean:
1) architects, designers, landscape architects, engineers, and etc. whose work that I like/admire and people whose brains I wish to "pick"
2) potential buyers for the 7 units I intend to build
3) neighbours, people who rent or own the adjoining lots
4) agriculturalists, horticulturists, botanists, environmentalists and other "green-fingered" people whose brains I wish to "pick"
This development is in the early planning stages. If you express an interest in purchasing one of the 4 remaining units, you can be part of a focus group to discuss the concept, facilities and amenities to be included in this proposed development.
Site Visit
I am planning a tour of the proposed development site and wish to invite stakeholders to pay a site visit and attend a short briefing afterwards where I'll explain the concept and ideas that I have as well as provide a chance for you to give feedback on the types of facilities and amenities you wish to be included.

CAUTION:
The bird's eye chili is small but packs quite a lot of heat. At one time it was even listed as the hottest chili in the Guinness Book of World Records but other hotter varieties of chili have since been identified. It measures around 50,000-100,000 Scoville units which is at the lower end of the range for the hotter Habanero chili.
Sliced clili padi with sliced lime leaf shoots, sliced bunga kantan, sliced white and sliced green belimbing buluh.

Over-ripe lemons have the most juice.
Udang kertas kering. Other ingredients you gonna need are Thai fish sauce, anchovy sauce/essence (budu), a tablespoon of sugar and a good mixing of all the ingredients in a sufficiently large mixing bowl.
This is the finished product ~ I've added sliced button mushrooms (raw), kerepek ketam as well as the Thai fish sauce, lemon juice and budu.

MCLM Kuala Lumpur Public Forum December 21 2010
Sreekant Pillai
The Malaysian Civil Liberties Movement (MCLM) Tuesday named human rights lawyer Sreekant Pillai (above) as the second candidate from its movement to contest in the next general election.
The son of the late veteran journalist of M.G.G. Pillai said he was chosen to be independent because "the current Government has nothing more it can offer to the people and the existing parties are not doing what the rakyat wants."
"My father taught me that there is nothing wrong in being idealistic, to always stand for what you believe in and always search for the truth. That is exactly what I am doing now," Sreekant, 37, who is representing the Selangor government in the Teoh Beng Hock inquest, said in a statement.

An umbrella body of student groups has pledged to be deployed as candidates to Malaysian Civil Liberties Movement (MCLM) in the next general election. Soladariti Mahasiswa Malaysia chairman Shazni Munir Mohd Ithnin said the student movement was willing to work together with MCLM as both shared similar principles and objectives.

POLITICAL ECONOMY: How I'd Run the Nation
Amirah Ameer Ali asks:
1) How can we stop having race-based political parties?
2) How can we improve our education system?
3) And economy?
4) How can Malaysians be united?
What's your opinion?
ANSWERS
1) Provide alternatives such as The National Justice Party (aka PKR) and a Green Party and others that will appeal to Malaysians of all ethnic ancestries. See:

2) Abolish SJK (C) and SJK (T) schools. Teach students how to learn and how to think, less on the "data" of learning, more on the technique. Provide more on learning theory, the joy of discovery, the thrill of finding out for yourself. Tony Buzan's Mind Maps, de Bono's Six Thinking Hats. Benchmark against the best. What can we learn from the Finnish, Canadian and New Zealand Education Systems?
PISA (Student Assessment)
Education in Finland
Finnish education system rocks - Why?
Education in Canada
Education in New Zealand
3) Spend less on the military. Abolish the Navy and Air Force. Have a Coast Guard instead. Piracy and smuggling are big issues facing national security. When was the last time the TUDM plane was used in combat against a foreign aggressor? A TLDM ship? When was the last time Malaysia fought a war? Why are we wasting so much money on nonsense? Why are we not spending money on real issues facing our country? Why buy submarines that can't dive?
As for R&D spending: Increase R&D spending to 4%. Spend money on nuclear energy like fusion and fission. I tend to think of fission as a stop-gap measure until we get fusion going.
Spend more on infrastructure. Fast free broadband, fast ERL-type trains, or double-storey TGV-like trains. LRT for Putrajaya. Extend the ERL from KLIA MTB (Main Terminal Building) to LCCT, Enstek, Seremban and then onto Singapore (the detailed engineering drawings have already been completed and submitted to govt for approval, govt is still pussy-footing around, possibly trying to decide which crony to award the contracts to).
4) Unity is built on understanding and trust, not intolerance, indifference, fear and ignorance. Understanding comes with knowledge and learning, not ignorance. When was the last time Malaysians were taught the customs and culture of the Chinese and Indians? Why are Malaysians not taught how to fold a banana leaf after eating at an Indian banana leaf restaurant? How come so many of us don't even know it makes a difference? Why is it so difficult for a Malay to learn Chinese or Tamil in school? Or a Chinese Arabic? Or an Indian Mandarin? or any Malaysian Spanish or French or German?
I hope the above suffices to initiate a point of departure for discussion.

1) How can we stop having race-based political parties?

What's your opinion?
ANSWERS
1) Provide alternatives such as The National Justice Party (aka PKR) and a Green Party and others that will appeal to Malaysians of all ethnic ancestries. See:
