Do you believe Saiful?

Saiful Azlan Bukhari & lawyer (image source: Malaysiakini ) "Saya, Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan dengan nama Allah saya bersumpah saya telah diliwat oleh Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim pada 26 Jun 2008 iaitu pada tarikh tersebut Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim telah.. (read full text from the Malaysiakini link below) "Jika saya berdusta atas pengakuan ini, maka saya berdusta terhadap Allah S.W.T dan sanggup menerima azab, laknat dan kutukan daripada Allah hingga ke kiamat, wallahullam." - Malaysiakini Update: Watch Saiful swears he was sodomised on Youtube My god, he actually swore on the Quran before the Imams of Wilayah Persekutuan mosque, JAWI Director, Datuk Che Mat Che Ali and family. I wonder what's going to happen next. Seriously, as a Muslim, it is hard for me to imagine any sane Muslim would dare to make a false swearing. Even kids know how serious matter it is if you were to swore using Allah's name to prove that you are telling the truth. Sumpah ni bukan benda main...

Finch Self-titled EP track list (released: July 22 2008). 01. Daylight 02. Famine Or Disease 03. From Hell 04. Chinese Organ Thieves Goodness gracious, what a piece of crap is this. Maybe I'm just too used to listen to their poppy-ish emo core music in their debut album, 'What It Is To Burn' (2002). Can anybody recommend me something else new?

Astro SMS scam

Image
After all the hype and publicity in the media, I can't believe that I'm still getting this kind of SMS, stating that I won RM17000 (how I wish that it could be true :p). There are three apparent mistakes in the SMS though. On the first line it says. "TAHNIAH! Prepaid Anda Berjaya Memenangi...." (My DiGi number is a postpaid number, not prepaid) Secondly, an obvious spelling error. 'Number' or 'Nombor' in Malay was spelled as 'Nomber'. Heheh. Thirdly, if the SMS was supposed to be from Astro Malaysia, why would Astro want to use an Indonesian registered number? And it bemuses me that people can be fooled by such a foolish scam.

Anwar Ibrahim and others

Al-Jazeera: Malaysia's Anwar 'to be charged' Malaysia's de facto opposition leader is expected to be formally charged in court with sodomising a male aide, lawyers for Anwar Ibrahim have said. Sankara Nair, the lawyer, told Reuters on Wednesday he had information that his client "will be charged for sodomy" after being asked "to answer charges" in court. First off - Let me say that I am not and was never a supporter of Anwar Ibrahim. Ok, call me a naive or whatever but seriously I never thought that the police and the AG department would dare to charge him especially after all the so-called conspiracy theories and all kind of stories that you can find on the net. Plus there hasn't been any serious evidence found of his "crime". I am pretty sure our police keep a close eye on our local bloggers too, especially Raja Petra. It is really mind boggling to think that this is going to happen again. Sigh. One thing for certain is that if Mala...

Izzi Broadband

Image
Finally, after months of calling TM and cursing the Streamyx connectivity, I gave up on TM Streamyx. I've had enough of calling them everytime I see the DSL light blinking or went off. But I'll still use my Streamyx though, just that I won't be really bothered in case my Streamyx network goes down. So, for the time being, say hello to Izzi - Mobile Wireless Broadband ! I bought the Izziyou package (USB terminal package, 1Mbp & 12 months limited warranty). Note that Izzi Broadband is currently available in Klang Valley area and according to the salesperson, Taipan USJ, KLCC and its surrounding area tops the list in terms of best coverage. Click here for Izzi's coverage map. The sales guy also told me, "Sini Subang, TM tak bleh pakai, so kita promote sini la cari makan!" Yeah, I can't agree more with him. Streamyx in Subang is really terrible. So, what do I think after using it for 3 hours now? Looks good so far. Let's see how it goes in the next c...

Random Writings

..Munirah - Zainal wedding, Dewan Sivik, P.J Phew, finally an update. A lot of things happened while I was 'away'. I'm starting to get busy with my studies. Tonnes of text books and reading materials to read. I'll probably need to shove aside some of the books on my reading list. Busy days ahead until Hari Raya I guess.. And thanks to the bloody Internet connectivity. My home Streamyx connection has been terrible the past few months. I can say it's the worst since using it for the last 5 years or so. I've really had enough of TM Customer Support's troubleshooting guide. I wanted to call TM awhile ago to ask how many calls have I made since May cos they haven't really fixed the problem til now, but the line was busy then and so I gave up after three attempts. Damnit. Hmm, time's up. Later.

Anwar Ibrahim - Shabery Cheek debate

Image
Anwar - Shabery live debate on Astro Awani channel 501 and TV9, organised by Agendadaily.com (image credit: Malaysiakini ) After watching the debate, "Hari ini membentuk kerajaan, esok turun harga minyak" , I think it was pretty obvious that Dato' Seri Anwar was the better person. Though Dato' Shabery did brought up some good points, it was no match to the points and details raised by Dato' Seri Anwar. I doubt any UMNO supporters would claim that Shabery 'won' the debate. I'd say Shabery has failed in his duty as a representative of the government to explain the rational and the reason of the government's policy to increase the price of petrol. By saying this I am not implying that I agree with the petrol increase. It is just that Shabery was not convincing enough. I shooked my head in disbelieve when he spoke again and again about the 1974 demonstrasi mahasiswa issue for the third time toward the ending speech. What has this got to do with the ...
