Light Banter - Happening In Malaysia Only [Part II]

Let us ponder on the following .....

NST @ 26 October 2010 at page 8 reported that Perlis was the only state to have failed to have all its state agencies audited before the April 30 dateline. Perlis is also "celebrated" as the only State to have got an "unsatisfactory" remark for its delivery performance. These were among the remarks made about Perlis in the 2009 Auditor General's Report on the financial statements and managements of State Governments' Departments, Agencies etc.

I think instead of adopting "1 Malaysia" concept, Perlis State Government is adopting "1 & THE ONLY 1 Perlis" concept!!!! By the way, is it not Perlis is the smallest State in Malaysia? Or is it Melaka? Considering the 'diminutive" size of Perlis, I wonder are there too many State Agencies/Departments in Perlis which somehow or rather caused these sad state of affairs?

NST @ 26 October 2010 at page 14 "At the Dewan Rakyat Yesterday" column quoted a certain MP (please do not bother to guess from which coalition he is from)suggested that another two (2) floors be added to the proposed Menara Warisan Merdeka, bringing it to 102 floors altogether. The proposed Menara Warisan Merdeka is to have 100 floors. His rationale - no pun is intended here!!! - is by doing so, Menara Warisan Merdeka would become the tallest tower in the world i.e. 1 floor taller than the Taipei 101 Tower.

To that particular MP, I would say that those additional 2 floors could make a lot of differences in Ranau, Sabah. That's what "rationale" is to me ....

NST @ 27 October 2010 is dominated by the "By Election" news ....

At page 6, it was reported that Gua Musang became the first - another 1st for Malaysia - constituency in Kelantan to enjoy free WiFi Internet services, involving 30 villages there .... This is the courtesy of the Federal Government under the "Kampung WiFi" programme.

I think by now Gua Musang folks would be saying "Alhamdulillah" .....

Could not wait for the next news in our mainstream media but I bet in a few days time there would be reports on members - or is it the so called "members" - of a certain political party/parties "jumping" around and ending up at the other side of the fence!!!!! Please prove me wrong this time around!!!!!

Let us just wait or shall we not do that?

On a sad note, it was reported that Paul the Oracle dies [NST @ 27 Octobe 2010 at page 16] - this did not happened in Malaysia!!!! Ooops - 1 Malaysia actually .....

Till we meet again ....
