I love you. Folk Tales- The Emperor's New Clothes.

 The emperor Has No Clothes. 










When you fail to learn, whether from history or what is evidently happening in your country. Then you have lost the plot. 

Especially if your plot is to hang on to the crown you clearly grabbed when the pendulum swung in your direction. 

Unless you’ve been quarantined in your bathroom suffering from unstoppable diarrhoea, you have clearly demonstrated your stripe. I was about to compare your stripe to that of the hyena, but I wouldn’t want to insult the latter. 

You are no different from the deposed chairman who quipped about two trains kissing when hundreds were injured in a train mishap recently. Both of you are cut from the same cloth.

You joked about raising your blue flag, when the black and white flags hoisted by the people were cries of desperation and despair. 

You strut the public domain thinking we admire your prowess at power grabbing and court intrigue. Knowingly or unknowingly, you have just disrobed yourself for all to see. 

What an ugly sight it was to be forced upon. The truth in this case is truly ugly.

You and your kind. No matter how you adorn yourselves we can see through you. 

We now cannot un-see what we saw. And we shall never want to see, ever again in a person leading our nation.

This is one Farewell we can’t wait to bid you. 

You have just promoted a minister, during whose watch, saw new record high numbers of cases and deaths. 

Now we know why our nation is losing in this Covid war. You and your kind have no interest and no clue about what is happening in the real world. You are lost in another world. Totally lost. 

Instead of commending the rakyat for starting positive initiatives like the white flag movement to care for and feed each other, you told us to not believe in them. 

This was clear when you failed to show any shred of sympathy or understanding of the people’s pain during your public address yesterday. 

The people were looking for some comforting words from their leader. You instead rubbed the hopelessness of the situation in their faces by making quips like raising blue flag instead of black or white flags and full kitchens. And that the T20s are also suffering. Insensitive? Or simply incapable of any form of compassion or feeling or you just simply don't care?

Yesterday- July 15, has to go down as one of the saddest day in history for Malaysians, not only because there are people starving or dying, the people living are devoid of hope when hope and leadership are most needed now.

Before bed, as I trawl the thick and fertile plains of social media channels, I find countless, and endless laments, essays, videos, blogs, vlogs, twits, tik-tocs, pleas, cries and rants on the state of our nation and our leaders and I find myself joining them in chorus. "The emperor has no clothes" and maybe then they will slowly listen and do something.

Good night and good luck Malaysia.

I love you. STFU and do nothing.

Tsunami on land

Covid19 Lockdown- D4
*SnowPiercer




For the first time since Noah's Ark the world is going on a reset. A reboot of sorts. 

This needs to happen especially when humankind is steering the planet out of control.  This is the hard left turn the country and the world need to take before it plunges into a ravine.  So as inhabitants of this world lets take heed, slow down, sit down, STFU and do nothing absolutely nothing and give yourself a break. And for once give the earth a break.

We have only less than two weeks. It is a much needed reset and rest for all of us.
But just like most resets when the system starts up again. Things may not run as smooth yet or things may not run again. That also depends on how well rested or recharged you are. So the less time you spend worrying and spreading rumours and fear the more time you can sit down,  STFU and do nothing. Relax and do nothing. No thinking. No talking. 
Do it for as long as you can. But be present.

Do this and you will be well prepared to meet the oncoming storm. There's serious work to do. 
We don't yet know the extent of the damage as this world event is unprecedented. 
So rest, recharge, reinvent yourself to steel ourselves and face the exciting uncertain future!

We live in exciting times indeed. It's up to you to ride it or be crushed by this tsunami on land. 
More devastating than the sea tsunami as it has gone across mountains, land and sea. 
We must brace ourselves and ride this wave with unity and courage. 
First within ourself then with our fellow human beings. The world is changing. Healing.

For now just sit at home quietly.
