ONE YEAR!!!

When I first started this blog January last year, I thought this is going to be just like my previous blogs, which ended after two or three months. I had never thought that this day would actually come. For your information, I started this blog on the 21st January 2006 with my first post at 9.57 p.m. And the first comment that I received was from Emirin. And now that with this 149th post, I wish asterix! a happy birthday!

In conjunction with the one year anniversary of this blog and Anugerah Juara Lagu 21, I have a little competition for all of you. All you have to do is to tell me the answer to the two questions below by midnight of 22nd January 200 and I have a mystery gift waiting for you. This competition opens only to my friends and family.


The first question is, why is the above picture significant to this blog?

Teratai Layu Di Tasik Madu by Fauziah Latiff (Winner of Juara Lagu 1993)
Janji Manismu by Aishah (Winner of Juara Lagu 1990)

The second question is, why are the songs above significant to me?

I will reveal the answers on the 23rd January. By the way, if you are in Malaysia right now, don’t miss Anugerah Juara Lagu 21 at 9 p.m. (GMT+8) tonight.

More on Angkara Cinta

Yes, I think I am becoming obsessed with this Malay Drama show. I always look forward to watching the show every day. The irony of Angkara Cinta is despite the title of the show, it is not a love story at all. At least not to me. Sure, the are several love stories in the show such as Luqman and Adira, Haqeem and Adira, Haqeem and Jijie, and Luqman and Adira again, but these love stories are just in the background and do not form the major part of the storyline. The reason I say this is because if you take away these love stories, Angkara Cinta would still stand on its own. We would still be able to see the struggle of Luqman and Haqeem, as well as, Indah and Mariani in dealing with the situations that they are in. And to me, that's what makes Angkara Cinta great and stand out relative to other Malay Drama on the television nowadays. The show also highlighted several mental health issues that are not talked about in Malaysia generally, and the Malay community specially. Malays, for

Rise and Fall of a Government

Many detractors of Tun Dr Mahathir blamed him for causing the fall of the Pakatan Harapan (PH) government in February 2020. They blamed him for quitting his position for no apparent reasons whatsoever. To be honest, none of us (save for a select few) really know what had happened behind the curtains and behind Tun's thick skull. As long as we are not Tun himself or those select few, we are all merely speculating at best. To me, I just want to focus on what Tun had said publicly because those are on record and no one can really dispute them. Tun had repeatedly said that he had resigned because he no longer had the support of the parliament as Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu). Two things here, mathematically, what Tun said about the his support from the parliament is true. Secondly, this was what Tun had said, what really went behind the scene was really up to anyone's guess. For one moment, let us just take Tun's words at their face value. The moment Tun felt that he

2011 That is Almost Over

In just one more day, 2011 will draw its final curtain. And looking back over the last twelve months made me realized how far have I come this year. 2011 has always been a very personal year to me, especially since I have started to plan for my engagement ceremony since July 2010 (Yes, that's how long I've been planning my wedding). I guess the highlight of the year began with significant change in my work. It was in March 2011 where I was finally given the opportunity to cover the Airline sector after lobbying for it since I joined the department in February 2009. I'm not saying the Consumer sector was not fun, but the Airline sector has always been a dear to me since I joined the company. But I guess, the Airline sector proved to be a lot tougher to cover than I expected. I had anticipated cyclical earnings and high risk from jet fuel price volatility but, MAS gave a whole different challenge to my skills as an analyst. The next highlight for the year was my engagement ce
