Happy Birthday Lim Kit Siang!

Now that Lim Kit Siang is a ‘friend’ on my Facebook, I know that it’s his birthday! Happy birthday Uncle Lim!

And now that we’re ‘friends’, I’ve been reading his blog and he seems to have so many supporters. And they’re all really passionate and ready to give their time and money to DAP.

Among my peers, most of us have been quite blasé about Malaysian politics. That is, until lately. I’m not sure if it’s due to our age that we feel we’re adults now and should excursive or right to vote. Or because we know BN is screwing things up. Or because the ethnic minorities are feeling more discrimination than usual.

No one I know is going to vote for BN in the coming elections on 8th March 2008. The general sentiment is to vote for anyone but BN so that they do not get 2/3 majority. While they will still win due to certain things which they do, a lot of people are trying not to let them win as much as they’re used to.

BN needs to know that they have slacked and that the rakyat knows it too. Sometimes their slacking off is so apparent, it’s laughable. But unfortunately that's our country for you.

I don’t know much about Malaysian politics but I’m starting to learn more.

And it all started by me petting Lim Kit Siang’s Fluff Friend!

The Monday morning WIP meetings have resumed after the CNY holidays much to the frustration of the account management department.

So I woke up early, went for the meeting which lasted all of 10 minutes, laughed at some of Boobster’s clubbing stories from over the weekend and then I checked my Facebook.

There was a message from one Barry (surname omitted) which is not in my list of friends and neither is he someone I know. His message was simply “You're certainly hot and lovely!”. Which is a compliment I guess but a bit scary coming from a complete stranger so I checked out his profile. He’s 47 years old, is married and is interested in men and women. That’s a bit worrying! But he’s got pics up of his wife and sons with nice comments about them. Never mind. I shall ignore this one.

Anyway I was looking at his profile and he’s got Lim Kit Siang on his friends list. Yes it’s the same Lim Kit Siang as in the politician from DAP.

So I went to check out Kit Siang’s profile. And guess what? He’s got a Fluff Friend! So cute! I can just picture an old man sitting in front of this computer petting his fluff friend. That’s totally adorable! It’s a puppog called Frontbench. I petted Frontbench. I’m going to introduce Billy to Frontbench and let them play together.
