I took a breather

I took a 1-month breather from the insanity of all that is Malaysia. In fact I was back in Malaysia in September of 2007. It was slightly close to 1 week after the 50th anniversary of Merdeka (Independence)

Flags were flying everywhere, one primary school I visited had close to 50 flags planted between it's school gates and the actual entrance to the school building complex.

Everywhere I went it was flags and faces, faces, faces of Abdullah BAdawi and his cohorts.


It looked to me like I was transported to some Eastern Bloc nation or East Germany after the war. Instead of Stalin's mennacing moustache and the a tide of red flags, it's Abdullah Badawi staring down on you.

And those flags were ugly, almost choking everything insight

Again this is Malaysia and the country runs on autopilot without any sense of decency or common sense anymore. Might as well be living in Zimbabwe.
