The Brave New World of Fat4

Every country has an underground economy. It is a matter of how big it is. It is interesting to see Malaysia’s GDP or GNP or whatever economic measuring tools you use is only 10% of its neighbour Singapore but yet the people living in Malaysia can be seen driving nice big cars, live in big houses and fly around the region. Unbelievable? No wonder even newspapers around Malaysia recently claimed how Hillary Clinton has said that US are willing to learn from Malaysia and another proudly claimed that Obama salutes our PM. Come to think of it, besides being near to his childhood home of Indonesia, I doubt he will remember anything about Malaysia.

It is interesting that Malaysia will soon the second Thailand of South East Asia as they too seek the court for answers rather than the people. Personally, that is the furthest away from the principles of Democracy. The last time something disastrous that has happened when the courts area allow to decide is to allow a war criminal by the name George Bush to run a country.

Singapore’s most wanted fugitive has finally been caught. Though there were numerous theories on where he was hiding and that he had died in custody, the most absurb theory about how he actually came to Johor was thrown off.

How did a world class detention facilities allow its prisoner to escape especially one who is known to be a terror? How did its world class immigration allow him to go through (if it was true that he went over to Malaysia via the legitimate way)? Or how did its world class water police patrol allow someone to slip pass after launching one of the largest manhunt in Singapore’s history?

Rather than actually capturing anyone, they have made a mess and caused many millions of people who had to use the border crossing each month. How many man hours had been lost due to the stupidity of some higher persons in charge? Why hasn’t that higher person in charge come out and acknowledge their problem and resign?

There are just too many whys.

It is amazing how I could title this post that way. In order to support the thieves, then one cannot be a supporter of human rights. Because by supporting human rights, one will have to consider the fact that a party is being made poorer (thus losing their rights) by another party.

Yves Saint Laurent estates stated that the only condition they impose with the returning of stolen two zodiac animals bronze sculpture that their previously criminal soldiers stole from the Summer Palace of China is for China to recognise Dalai Lama. This is a VERY DANGEROUS statement.
