A 2

The Midnight Hour is at hand;With Fear creeping across the land.The beginning of the end, is A2;question is,will you make it through? But making it through isn't it, your grades could still be shit.Making it great is what counts, and as we work the pressure mounts.

While we work and study, We start to remember our buddies.As we start to reminisce,Dammit, I can't find anything to rhyme with this. I feel like studying is all i know, No chicks no fun, no nothing but sorrow.

But soon my friends we shall be free,and on the Cambridge shield we shall pee. No more DotA, no more CS, Off to get my BS.Once again we go our separate ways, But no my friends, this is not the end of our days.For we shall meet once again, In a year, or ten,For bonds were formed that were so strong, They could not be broken by any wrong.

So let us smile and rejoice,While we re-sit our multiple choice.For in the end we all know, that there's happiness and no sorrow.I bid good luck to all my friends, and as we go through A2's loops and bends, let us not forget the awesome mix, that was 0606.

Teh Tarik In Space

Somewhere, deep in the urban jungle of Malaysia, in a Mamak...

Anonymous Malaysian Politician A : "Any idea how i can pocket a bundle of cash from something which derives some 'public benefit'? You know lah, make my face more friendly looking."

Anonymous Malaysian Politician B : "Send a man to space lah!"

Anonymous Malaysian Politician A "Good idea! The Russians always give me a good deal. Then the public thinks i'm doing something 'beneficial' for the country! Settle!"

Both laugh.

3..2..1...RM 72 million blasts off into space!

Don't get me wrong. I'm not against the space programme. That would be most stupid and unpatriotic. Its cool that Malaysia's sending an astronaut/space tourist to space. Good publicity.
Makes us look quite cun.
Progressive multi-cultural Islamic/secular state.
Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

I have no problem with launching a man into blackened oblivion.

My point is it would have been cool if the country spent the cash improving welfare internally, not on national pride and patriotism stemmed from public image.
Wouldn't it be way cooler if you could say your country was corrupt free, with an efficient police force and a competent vastly educated public?
Personally, i don't really care too much about what other people think of Malaysia. this is the best country in the world and i know it. Personally, i'd love to feel that pride because my country used 72 million to eradicate literal and metaphorical illiteracy, vanquished corruption, and made healthcare free.

Imagine, with 72 million :

a) Improve civil servant wages, denoting corruption

b) Eradicate poverty (if Muhammad Yunus has a way, so should we)

c) More competent internal security, so things like what happened to Nurin DON'T happen

d) Better CSI equipment, apparently ours sucks, so that bastard can be found and shot

e) Education, on everything from negligence to theology, an entire nation of intelligentsia would be impressive..

f) An independent money-fueled enquiry into that judiciary incident

(Politician A: "if you investigate me, take some money, don't lah."
Politician B: "Nah its okay, they'll give me 72 million if i find you guilty..")

g) Free healthcare (i feel its a human right)

They may seem idealistic, but so did the Declaration of Rights of Man during the French Revolution, and a little incoherent, but that's cuz of all the extra crap in my brain right now, which i have to get back to.

But since he's up there....


MALAYSIA BOLEH!
