After liberating the ancient city of Palmyra, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is a very happy man today. Russian President Vladimir Putin personally called Assad to congratulate him. But the whole world knows without Putin the historic site occupied by ISIS terror group since May 2015 would not have been liberated by Assad’s forces. The Mayor […]
... written on Apr 01 2016Malaysian Prime Minister, Najib Razak, doesn’t really care about what the Malaysian people think of him as far as his scandals are concerned. From allegations of corruption, money laundering and even murder, none of them could make him resign. He would have had been impeached in other democracy countries by now. Welcome to Malaysia, […]
... written on Mar 30 2016Former U.S. contractor Edward Snowden was right after all when he revealed his refusal to use Apple’s iPhone. It isn’t secure at all as Apple would like you to believe. For 6 weeks, the Government of the United States was at war with Silicon Valley giant Apple over cracking an iPhone belonging to terrorist Syed […]
... written on Mar 29 2016Lim Guan Eng (LGE), if he’s a kopitiam boss or a roast pork seller, would not get the attention (and trouble) he’s getting now. In fact, nobody would care that he had struck a good deal getting himself a bungalow for RM2.8 million – a crazy discount to market value. At 10,161 square feet, his […]
... written on Mar 26 2016Malaysia is a unique country because besides the Executive, Legislative and Judiciary pillars, the fourth pillar of the country’s Constitution “was” the Monarchy.

Not only ISIS supporters have been cheering the terror attacks in Brussels, […]
... written on Mar 24 2016The attacks were largely expected. What was unknown were the place of targets and the number of innocent people who would be killed. Innocent people here, of course, aren’t referring to politicians. Politicians always get away scot free. But the policies made by these supposedly clever Western countries’ politicians have gotten many citizens killed. There’s […]
... written on Mar 22 2016With the wake of terror group ISIS running wild in the Middle East and the recent bombing in Jakarta, is there any major difference between an extremist and a terrorist? As far as the Government of Singapore is concerned, only a fine line separating these two groups of people. Both are not welcomed into Singapore, […]
... written on Mar 22 2016Due to obsession over Donald Trump’s meteoric rise in his run for President of the United States 2016, suddenly very little attention was paid to President Barack Hussein Obama.

... written on Mar 20 2016There were some cheers when crude oil prices started moving north from below US$30 a barrel. It didn’t go any further than US$40 a barrel and has now retreated to below the figure. Nevertheless, nobody believes it could skyrocket at the same momentum it had tumbled though.
