Proton Perdana more expensive than Mercedes?

Well, to be more specific, Proton Perdana is more expensive to maintain, that is according to Terengganu MB, who spent RM3.43mil to buy 14 Mercedes E200 Kompressor cars. There are two implications to be made from this incident: either the Proton Perdana sucks, or the MB sucks.

If what is said by the MB is true, then I'm really mystified. How is it possible that owning a national car need a higher maintenance cost than the luxurious Mercedes? Ok, well, Perdana V6 is also supposed to be luxurious, but yet it is still a national car! Locally assembled, and surely contain more local equipments in the car than Mercedes, and yet costs more than the maintenance costs of Mercedes? I suppose Malaysians deserved better from Proton!

But if what is said by the MB is not entirely true, then he just show his inconsideration towards every Malaysians. Just when rising inflations has affected every Malaysians, where people fight to survive, and were asked to change their lifestyle to cope with the current hardship, the state government just spent RM3 mil on luxurious cars, and looking to sell them in a few years time (as the MB mentioned one of the reasons to buy Mercedes is the 2nd hand value of the Mercedes) is absurd! If the Terengganu state government do have such extra money, spend it on public transportation, please!

Reliving the Rocketmail!

Yahoo is now offering free e-mail accounts under the domain of "rocketmail" again since its acquisition of Four11 Corp. back in 1997.

Rocketmail was one of the first major free webmail services and was a product of Four11. At one time, RocketMail battled with Hotmail for the number one spot amongst free webmail services.

Though Yahoo Mail is essentially the old RocketMail webmail system, RocketMail users carry a mark of distinction as some of the first Internet webmail users as Yahoo, until recently reserve the Rocketmail domain for their use. Another domain offered by Yahoo is "ymail".

The introduction of these new e-mail designations is being driven by the difficulty potential users are having as they try to find an appealing e-mail handle under the Yahoo domain. This is a great news for Yahoo mail users!

The difficulty of getting a nice login existed quite a long time ago, and only when I register with my full name that it is possible for me to get a Yahoo mail, and this is 7 years ago. I really can't imagine how can anyone register for Yahoo mail in this past 7 years! But at lease now, one can have more options with the reintroduction of Rocketmail and the new "ymail"!

If Human can talk to the Tiger

Human: Yesterday, you ate one of my cattle. Can you comment on that?

Tiger: Yes. It was delicious, thank you. I prefer venison, but the deer seem to have vanished with the forest.

Human: I apologise for that. But please, my cattle are not for you.

Tiger: I don't understand. You let your cattle wander. Dinner practically walked into my mouth!

Human: Well, I can't keep them at the village all the time. They need to graze!

Tiger: Have you never heard of a schedule? I usually work the night shift.

Human: It's funny, though, the village over the hill- no one's ever lost a cow before.

Tiger: Oh, that one. I've been there. They house their cattle in these enclosures I couldn't get into. Not that I ever tried, of course. The villagers even cleared the underbrush. There was absolutely nowhere to hide. Two years without a single ambush. It was absolute misery. I had to leave.

Human: Only to move here, of course. Now the enclosures, that's interesting. How high did you say the fences were?

Tiger: All I will say is I have no difficulty scaling the walls 2 metres high.

Human: I must admit, that's rather impressive! It's good we had this chat.

Tiger: It's been a pleasure. We'll catch up sometime.

This conversation is adopted from an advertisement by HSBC some time ago. The message of it is to love our environment! And be moderate in treating this nature, as it belongs not just to human, but every living creature.

Dramatic 2 weeks

The past 2 weeks has been a really dramatic period for Malaysians. I believe the newspaper sales must have increase as wave after wave of stunning news "leaked" to the general public. The vote of no confidence, sodomy, murder using explosive case, Malaysian political scene has hit more headlines than ever before.

All these news certainly battered the Bursa, but to make it worse, "technical glitch" hit Bursa, and trading was halted for one full day. And now they are saying that Malaysians are getting tired of political bickering.

Well, yes to some extent, but some how, since the situation already developed into the current situation, the politicians owe the people the truth, and also for those responsible to face the consequences! Please don't expose something, yet nothing is done to those responsible like the hundred ringgit screwdrivers!
