Of two worlds, two standards, two different versions and...

Mirror, mirror on the wall... what do I see?

It is difficult when you are found living in two different worlds... especially when you are pushed into the spotlight on the same stage..

Again, there are things that I will gladly comment and there are things that I prefer to stay out of the limelight. Not because I do not have a stand on the issue but I prefer to keep my stand personal. However, in this case, our 1M Multimedia Minister has erred when he suggested an open debate between Paulsen and JAKIM. In the first place, I will not termed it as debate, I will choose the word dialogue which should be more meaningful...

First thing, how can you pitch a civil lawyer with syariah understanding? And this is the weakness of our legal system. How can a civil lawyer talks about syariah laws? Is he knowledgeable to touch the issues or just because he is a lawyer, he can choose the words to support his argument?

There are certain things which is unexplainable to us. The same goes with the argument that if we cannot see, we cannot believe syndrome. You do not see the air, but you know it is there...so how? It is more prefereable for both Paulsen and JAKIm to sit down together and go through their differences. You do not need 1M Multimedia Minister to do that... any teh tarik session can do UNLESS someone out there wanted to keep the score.

Case of point is the recent K-POP issue involving gadis bertudung. Eventhough, I did lay the blame to the singers, it is their duty to know the do's and don't in Malaysia. If there is any need to interact and hold hands or hug or kiss, go choose someone who is not binded by their religion and beliefs. Why is this not done? Apparently the propomters failed or simply wanted to create the scene in order to promote their K-POP stars.

1M Minister says educate offenders. I say the offenders should be educated before they step foot in this country. I thoroughly believe that the same K-POP singers will not dare to spit out chewing gum in Singapore, then why the same singers choose to offend others in Malaysia?

Apologising is not the solution. It has been said many times before of the do's and don't in Malaysia. If Beyonce and the rest respect our custom and religion when performing in Malaysia, why can't K-POP singers do the same? Unless 1M Minister is an ardent fan of K-POP and he is the one who "greenlighted" the move.

As for the "tudung" girls, it is a misjustice to the rest of the tudung girls. Are they
"bertudung" because they choose to be "bertudung" or are they "bertudung" because it is the "in-fashion" for Malay girls. I am sure if these "tudung" girls are not "bertudung", they will not be able to get their parents blessings to be at the event.

That said, I see it as a miscarriage of justice when these "bertudung" girls do something that is not reflective of other innocent and genuine "gadis bertudung". You want to know about the "real gadis bertudung". Go google Ustaz Azhar Idrus, Or Ustaz Kazim....

As for Anwar, it is better for him to keep his mouth shut. The problem is he cannot keep hismouth shut..all for the sake of to be in the news.... Anwar will have ample newstime soon when his "SODOMY" case judgement is out, regardless of him being innocent or guilty...

Here we go again.... the FBI letter case. Gasing time....One say and the other say. Both can be correct and both can be half truths...I will not comment as 1M DPM says another thing.

Spinning is for politicians? Or is it for corporate players? Tony Phua ask ARUL to come with facts and figures. As far as I am concern, Cayman Island is still there...but where is the funds?

My point is simple...we are living in two worlds...and currently it seems that the world's view of equality is an about turn with the Muslim definition of equality. We live in two standards whereby there is a grey line between what is wrong and what is right. And one's view maybe the opposite to the other. We have tow version to a single story..and we are now torn between our conscious and the public concious. Which one is right? And is the other wrong?

Tepuk dada tanya selera...

Till then...G'nite M'sia...wherever u are...

One set of law for all. Another set for special one. K-pop is not special one. Instead of blaming everyone, the stupid one, should ban the special one from attending.

It is not a problem to have two set of rules BUT the rich and powerful should be subjected to a more stringent check and balance. What happen today is the reverse, the rich and powerful can plays around the system whilst the poor is slapped with various acts etc...

Time to change...
