more shit... Part. 4

And yet what has the current administration been doing? The 9th MP and recent Budget only goes to show that there is little that is being done to change the current situation or take the country forward. It retains the legacies of the M-era. It continues to favour the lazy way out of the NEP and the (ugly four-letter word starting with r)-based affirmative action policy that mollycoddles a particular group. That does little to help change the mindset or 'culture' of said people. Instead it instills corruption, overdependence on their pride and government aid. What's the 'in' word for it now? Ahh yes... 'rent-seeking'. I think the NEP has overstayed its welcome and outlived its purpose and usefulness. Yes, after the independence, it might have been useful to close the gap in racial economic disparity, but now, now it is being abused and misused. Not by all of said group of people, but by enough. I wonder why. I have many brilliant friends from this group of people. They are where they are in their own right. And they find it distasteful that others assume they got where they are due to governmental aid. Because they really ARE good. It is sad that a plan first formulated to aid has been abused to such an extent that it is now a huge joke. But the fact that such policy still remains goes to show how the administration lacks *****.

What have they been doing instead? Ahhh yesss..... intimidate bloggers and threaten to do all sorts of unmentionables to those who appear to 'slander' the G-word through blogs. I wonder what their definition of the word 'slander' is? It's a perfectly innocent question, of course! One must know these things. It's like Bill asking what the definition for SEX and ORAL SEX is, y'know?

The state of the Malaysian economy is in a sad, sad rut. While countries like China have tripled or even quadrupled their GDP in the past 10 year since the Asian economic crisis, what have we to show, really? We are getting older, and yet we have achieved very little. Apart from, of course, political entertainment via mudslinging and what-nots. Soap opera, bay-beh, I'm tellin' ya. Stop watching the O. C. and One Three Hill and The Bold and The Beautiful. Stop those re-runs of Dynasty, Dallas and Santa Barbara. THIS is the real thing. Politics, power, ethno-religious tensions, imbecilic incendiary statements, sex and beautiful Pan-Asian models all in one mix. Oh... and disgruntled old men, too. YEAH...

The world is getting more and more competitive. We should be learning to prepare ourselves for such global competitiveness and our administration should be learning how to spearhead this goal whilst balancing socio-economic justice, instead of wasting time on selfish childs' play. Really, it's about time all of us grew up. Doesn't anyone know about John Nash's economic theory? Well then, watch A Beautiful Mind. In a nutshell? One should consider not just the benefits for oneself, but also the benefits for the group as a whole in order to achieve optimum success. Also please, if one is relatively new, and leading a group of people, learn the McDonald's theory. What's it, you ask? Go for the tried-and-tested. Go for the familiar. Don't go into unchartered and unknown territory unprepared (e.g. biotech). Notice how McDs only come to a town/ city that is 'advanced' and 'prepared' enough for fast food, and has enough people living in the area so they won't make a loss? For fuckssakes' it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. Oh wait... they are politicians.... not economists!! My bad....

BLAH... too much to comment about. This is already a very long post, as it is. I AM, after all, supposed to be a brainless lotus flower swaying in the winds and waters and not know anything about politics, or anything, actually, except how to please a future husband, and look after children and a household. I should just be flaunting as discreetly and demurely as possible my titties and arse without seeming too forward, too bright, too obvious or too direct so as to optimise my chances of snaring as 'wunnerful!' and as high up the social ladder as possible a future husband. I am female. I should pander to the silly male ego. Yeah, watch me gag and squirm in my societal 'handcuffs'. Forgive me for having a brain.

You think I'm gonna be going to jail for saying these and having a brain? If so, let's have a going-away party for me, eh?

Why am I writing all these and letting unknowns pick my brain? I should be studying instead...
