School Of Thought
The Satu Sekolah Untuk Semua campaign initiated and supported by several bloggers is too radical.
You shouldn’t abolish vernacular schools, because Malaysians should have the right (if they don’t already) to educate their children in their mother tongue
Having said that, I strongly believe that government-funded, government-run schools should only provide secular education, with the national language [...]

Panggilan Pulau
No shit, Sherlock?
Revellers at a recent wild party on Pulau Perhentian are believed to have had a sex orgy before Besut District Council (MDB) enforcement officers moved in on them.
It is learnt that this was the second time a wild party was held on the island.

Jive Talk
So, are Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Rakyat gonna meet over Perak or not?
If you dudes are, do it now.
I will suspend hostilities and declare a unilateral ceasefire the moment it is announced that the meeting’s on.
But I must say, I have little confidence that anything positive will come out of such talks, so if they [...]

After that, it is almost certain to go to the Federal Court.
All this could take some time, although the courts could speed it up as it is a matter of extreme importance.

1Indian. Samy First. MIC Now
Okay, while we wait for the Court of Appeal’s decision on Perak, I’m gonna have some fun with this:
The MIC unity and community development committee has called for a discussion with pro-government and Opposition Indian-based organisations to set up a “1Indian” concept.
Its chairman S. Vell Paari said this was needed to unite the Indian community, [...]
Pakatan Rakyat Has Majority In Assembly
Okay. First things first:
Nizar said that all previous decisions made by the Dr Zambry administration would be subject to review but not invalidated except for the tumultous May 7 sitting.
He also suspended the state legal adviser with immediate effect. [The Star]
Now, the court ruling today means the sitting under the tree was valid.
It means that [...]
