Properties in Malaysia is up in the sky

KL

Went to check out a few new properties recently. Some became my dream house, costing up to RM1million, for a terraced house. Funny how the property price raise soooo freaking fast just this few years.

So far, I haven’t really flexing my muscle on house/apartment yet. Besise small cabinet stuff and a rheem heat pump that I installed a month back. I’m looking for one… Still haven’t see one that is actually “click”.

Back then, there was an area where I like the most (still like it), the price was RM350,000, now they are double the price! Yet, I haven’t felt that I’m 5.8% richer according to whatever report the newspaper tried to tell me. Even if it is true, I don’t think that enable me to get on :(

Nasi Lemak 2.0

I would say this is the truely 1Malaysia movie. Though I do felt annoyed when Namewee trying to threaten government for the fund.

This movie comes from a Chinese point of view, starting off with studying in China. Basically it built all the culture in Malaysia into this movie, that include the bad side as well. I do enjoy the movie.

Reverse physcology?

Reverse I don’t know if you notice that, there are lots of TV public service announcement telling you about how well this country is, how harmony there is, how all races is going well together in Malaysia. Especially since Independent days is coming.

My friends and I mostly just ignore that, or comment how bad the commercial was made. But woman, has another thought.

“Why are you guys telling yourself how nice is this country? That commercial should be place in BBC not in RTM lah!”

Maybe she is right, the answer to her question is the key to why those announcements are made.

It’s about right and wrong!

Very often when two debating or arguing about government, it surely comes to political parties. And from there on, things become good and bad. Like a good guys trying to save the World while the bad guys are sitting in the power that be.

Government or political parties, often about having the right policy and wrong policy for the nation. Both standing on the same line only different view. However, even they, themselves making fun like you are bad guy, I am the good guy.

This is one heck of a video that I don’t know how to face my Prime Minister next time he appear in front of me.

Perhimpunan Haram

I followed this news very tightly online, especially Twitter. I did not join though, that might be one of the thing that I most regreted about too. I has the impulse to go down Kuala Lumpur on Friday night, but after thinking twice, I don’t want to jeopidise a lot of thing, especially since I’m a married man with process on-going.

BERSIH

Anyway, what I wanted to say is the media, the real media in Malaysia. It sound so much like China nowadays, a communist or something.

Spinning news

China Press night paper came out with a picture of FRU firing tear gas with people standing on opposite. The headline? “Where is the peaceful gather?”. The picture clearly shows that FRU firing, there is nothing happen, no tyres burning, no nothing, just tear gas fired by the FRU, and the headline pointing to the people who sitting and standing in the opposite? What is this news?

Repeat it and it will become true

I finally get this idea already. I was having a drink at around 5pm with a friend. The TV1 news keep showing a marquee at the bottom, starting with “Perhimpunan Haram: Seorang pemimpn…”. The line keep starting with “Perhimpunan Haram:”.

Somehow, with just following #BersihStories hashtag in Twitter, it gives me a clearer picture of what’s going on. The real spirit of 1Malaysia does sound much much better than any other occasion.

This BERSIH has becoming a whole World thing, most corner has a BERSIH rally. This beg the question of, why in this democracy Malaysia cannot has a rally? I hope the interview doesn’t come with an answer like in 2007.
