Her at home the major issues are not how to get off our butts and get this country back on track economically or socially but how Muslims are being under siege by those who have hidden agendas and has dedicated their entire lives at trying to the tear down the house of the Prophet,(PBUH) and the latest being the vent of '"Muslims getting to know Dogs." Most of the Ulama's young and old wise or otherwise have their pieces to say and are at loggerheads some of them among themselves, hence the cause for concern, that Islam is under attack, again! Remember the "ALLAH' word? Can or cannot be used by the Christians and so forth? That is in the back burner now too.
KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 27 — The “I Want to Touch a Dog” event two Sundays ago is seen as the latest controversy underscoring Malaysia’s decades-old “culture wars” that have deepened fissures between the country’s Malay Muslim majority and its other racial and religious minorities, the New York Times (NYT) reported - See more at: http://www.themalaymailonline.com/malaysia/article/in-nyt-report-dog-petting-row-seen-shining-light-on-Malaysias-culture-wars?
Thank God the ruling party can breath a sigh pf relief as the focus is off their from their own performances in the running of the country. When in doubt raise a social issue like racial or religious and let the people occupy their minds with these, is the norm today And with the Internet everyone can in on the subjects of the day creating a storm over teacups, everyone has an opinion.
Then there is the Anwar Ibrahim's Sodomy Saga to keep, us occupied if all else fails and as the former deputy prime minister awaits his fate being decided by the court, Malaysians are again doomed to sit, watch and listen with their fingers crossed one way or the other like we got nothing else better to do with our government.
"The Federal Court is set to hear tomorrow Anwar’s appeal of the Court of Appeal’s decision to overturn a lower court’s decision to acquit him of sodomy.
The High Court had in 2012 acquitted Anwar of a 2008 sodomy charge — his second since 1998 — but the appellate court ruled on March 7 this year that the lower court’s trial judge had erred when rejecting the DNA evidence produced in the case.
If Anwar fails to reverse his five-year imprisonment sentence and conviction in the Federal Court tomorrow, the Permatang Pauh MP would lose his seat as the law bars anyone fined RM2,000 or imprisoned for one year to be a lawmaker.
The former deputy prime minister has been going on his own campaign since last Tuesday to drum up support and is expected to cap it off with a solidarity gathering tonight.

Is this all there is, is this what it all boils down to being born and raised to live for over sixty years as a man and having very little to show for as to the reasons why and where for? Oh, I could go on rambling like I always do whenever I run out of things worth sharing about bu the the fact of the matter is I still feel like i am missing something, like i need to let out a roar and clear my head once and for all. Usually this is when i seek my friends and enjoy a few drinks or partake of a joint or two just to clear the cobwebs that are beginning to clog up my brain. But i have forfeited these habit in search of a better more lasting source of creativity insight or spiritual uplifting and so here I am moaning and groaning over nothing. As always looking for an escape from this tedious moments leading to boredom or otherwise decadence.
In the teachings of Gautama , the Buddha, it is said,"For so long as I believe that i am an entity, a 'Self', there will be suffering or at least the i, am bound to suffer Along with this entity, the I comes attachment and holding on to believes and conceptions, attachments to thoughts and ideas, to this material realm and its multidimensional manifestations of the dual thinking mind. Like the rest of humanity i am a victim of my own self created delusions regressing and progressing at any given moment towards the final destination of self destruction or death. Until the moment arrives, which cn happen even at this moment while I am at the computer, my self deluded mind will continue on to create thoughts that has nothing or very little to do with what is ' so called 'reality'. Nothing i have been told, taught, and warned of is permanent and nothing is of its own real for everything is interdependent and correlated from one to another and is ever in a state flux or change. The old Sufi story of 'this too shall pass' is ever in my subconscious mind reminding me of the teachings of the ancient not to be hankering over what is impermanent in this life and to learn to let go of this so called self that is the sum total of all that the mind has ever brought into existing through thoughts.
ISIS whatever it stands for will continue on to terrorize the Middle Eastern countries and Israel will justify all the crimes that were committed against the Palestinians, Obama will run the country like the puppet of some entity behind the global agenda that some called the 'Illuminati' or the propagators of the 'New World Order' and Anwar Ibrahim might of might not be imprisoned in the next few days whe the court has come to its decision. Malays will still wonder what it is like to pet a dog, right or wrong? and the Global warming is something that is a worry to all those who lives by the coastal areas, like my twin brother. What has all these to do with me? I would be happy to just return to the organic farm and help to promote Organic Rice planting in the remote area of Lintang in Kedah and perhaps continue to let the Menteri Besar know that he should take it upon himself to look into helping this venture as it will be a boon to his administration, my insight. This son of the the former Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohd. if he is anything like his father should not be hard to convince of a winning card to play.
Well that should wrap up my life for now and hopefully something will materialize in the next few days for me to ake the quantum leap into the next dimension of my existence. As it is I have at least wrote myself an entry and took my state of mind up a notch from drifting towards depression anmd despair towards a mini satori or insight into what it is being me.
"Each one of us has to be our true self: fresh, solid, at ease, loving and compassionate. When we are our true selves, not only you but everyone around you will profit from your presence. Just like a beautiful tree: if the tree is anything but a tree we will all be in trouble". -Thich Naht Hanh
