All sorts of strange people being given citizenship these days. First we have pimps, prostitutes and masseurs from mainland China, than Indian shamsters with doggy degrees and now the latest trend of East Europeans setting up restaurateurs as a front for other things? When you dont have an...

Quite sure they are not Malays in the normal definition of things. But they are definitely "Malays" based on PAP definition, even though their IC will likely show they are 'Indians". Real Malays too busy making deliveries, chasing minas and organising void deck weddings.

Boss, this kind of rant best placed under any John Tan thread.

These sinkies with little driving experience who drive in US and Europe where they drive on the right are a major hazard to themselves and others. As we are all conditioned to "keep left", it requires concentration and vigilance to keep telling yourself tp "Keep Right" instead. But these yaya...

These 2 have definitely not aged well. Fann Wong looks like she paying the price for some dodgy plastic surgery done when she was younger. The poor quality shows up when you get older and using botok to make corrections ( as it appears from the photos) creates a Frankenstein. Zoe Tay's granny...

Plus the China factor, who now look almost angelic comparatively speaking. Are they waiting for Trump to stumble some more before they step forward. They are already making economic conquests worldwide so it may be time to flex their diplomatic muscle soon? The Europeans can only go so far but...

This kind of rubbish dribble editorial is akin to a puppy yelping away. They trying to show they very gung ho journalistic but its just toothless harmless noise to try to make themselves look good and independent and fearless for the declining readership of the stupid masses who still read the...

Most of the loan sharks and many other criminal activities in Singapore are run by Malaysian Chinese who are PRs in Singapore. They are needed to bump up the GDP that's why PAP plays dumb.. Go across one day to Johore and sit in a coffee shop in Tun Aminah, Johore Jaya, Plentong ( not in...

Could MBS be inadvertently setting the stage for his own assassination? He has created so many enemies within the very extended, incestuous and vested royal household that this is something not far fetched, plus considering all the sectarianism,sibling rivalries and palace intrigues that go...

Many of the people who live in Jurong tend to be either Malaysians on work passes, Malaysian PRs, new citizens Malaysians or are kids of Malaysians. Just like how the East Coast area has become a Little India, West coast /Jurong is basically Little Malaysia. Malaysian Chinese are known to be...

As much as I would like to believe that the Saudis are being "smart" and aligning their diplomacy to the new realities and a reaction to their past failures, history has shown that they are no real diplomats. They are too two dimensional for their own good and have not the skills to pick up the...

Sri Lankans, like the Indians, are known for being big talkers, with little action. And when they are in the opposition their voices get louder and actions less than positive. If not for the Chinese, Sri Lanka would today still be fighting the civil war, refugees would be smuggling themselves...

Exactly one hundred years ago, the Balfour Declaration (see below) paved the way for the creation of the Jewish nation. All parties were consulted and their input sought prior to this declaration. The only people who were not consulted was the local population of Palestine!! Seems that this...

The photos of the malls reminds me of the malls in Batu Pahat and Muar. Same layout, same products but overpriced in Sing dollars, and the same bunch of poorly dressed ugly people walking around aimlessly. Yes we have gone from 1st to 3rd world quite quickly.

Arabs are Arabs . Nothing much has changed. As they say, you can take the Arab out of the desert Bedouin tents but you cant take the desert mentality out of them. White man worshiping is still very much ingrained, never mind the competency as long as the colour is right. They are doing the same...

Yet another example of Europeans moving into Iran. The Chinese too should also be watched. So far their involvement is quite limited compared to how they have entered Africa. One very visible sign is that many of the cars in Iran are Chinese made brands and models, some of which which I have...

Iran does indeed have a rare form of government but based on anecdotal evidence on the ground level I don't believe that religion is central to it's existence even though is called the "Islamic Republic of Iran" and effectively controlled by the Ayotollahs. I think it's more to do with the pride...

Perhaps I am partial, but Iran is not quite the the growing threat and destabilizing threat as it is made out to me. Having been to Iran a few times and still have friends there who keep in touch, many there will tell me that Iran has to act they way they do because of the belligerence of the...

My friends tells me that Sadiq Ahengaran continues be held in high regard but barely composes any new songs. He did mostly during the war. He now holds an executive role in the armed forces. But his songs continue to be played on radio and tv during certain auspicious times of the year. Just...

Yes a little out of date but I thought I'll post it anyway as it gives a sense of the mood in Iran. But in spite of this, my friends there tell me that it's very much life as per normal in Iran. They are pissed off and irritated but are just just shrugging this off as sabre rattling by the...
