Why BN is not keen in registering new/young voters

The present list of voters in Sarawak is not up to date. From the random list of voters for Bintulu constituency, I found out that some of the voters are as old as 105 years of age. I doubt these voters are still alive today. (It is obvious that the EC is not doing their job in updating the voters list).

As a neutral individual not aligned to any political parties, I am very concerned about this matter. A lot of unexpected things can happen which will hinder the proper execution of a clean democratic practice. If the opposition is not careful, this list of voters which contents "ghost voters" can be of advantage to those in control of the election process. The EC are supposed to be an independent body, but think again, who take care of their payroll? The answer is in your head.

Budget 2011 - Najib Tun Razak's Speech

TRANSFORMATION TOWARDS A DEVELOPED AND HIGH-INCOME NATION

Mr. Speaker Sir,

I beg to move the Bill intituled “An Act to apply a sum from the Consolidated Fund for the service of the year 2011 and to appropriate that sum for the service of that year” be read a second time.

INTRODUCTION

1.Praise be to Allah, for enabling me to table the 2011 National Budget. Indeed, this is a significant budget. This Budget is a precursor in our final efforts towards achieving Vision 2020, which is 3,365 days or 9 years, 2 months and 17 days away.

2.On this auspicious Friday, I present a budget that lays the foundation for Malaysia to become an advanced nation. Over the last 18 months, the Government has taken measures to propel the country towards becoming a developed and high-income economy.

Change of name

Good day to whoever stumble upon this blog.

Previously, this blog was called "Justice For Sarawakian", and has been dormant for quite a while.   I have decided to change it's name to "Theory Of Zero" for reasons known to myself.   I think that's not a big deal.   With the rebirth of this blog, I hope to put forward quality and meaningful postings.   For the sake of all.  We deserve what is rightly ours.   Has been sick with all kinds of injustice befell us.

Hope to get feedbacks from whoever share the same sentiment.

Does Naim Cendera really care?

Does NC really care for the welfare of the road users traveling along Mukah-Selangau Road? What has happened to their “We Care Campaign”? It is actually a well orchestrated gimmicks backed by political motives. An average man on the streets knows what they are up to. What they really care about is the profits, the rest go to HELL.

It is learned from reliable sources that, for the daily maintenance of the road, NC are paid RM8,000 per day. Whether the works are done or not, that amount are still paid. That is the main reason why they delay the completion of the upgrading. The longer time they take to complete, the more money comes in. The faster time to complete this project, less money comes in, as simple as that! Even a toddler knows how to do the calculations.

Gawai Antu or "Nyungkup"

Gawai Antu or commonly referred to as "Nyungkup", as the name suggests, is a kind of festival to comemorate the dead or the final festival celebrated for the spirit of the dead. The Iban believes that, unless Gawai Antu is celebrated, the spirit of the dead is not yet settled or not peaceful in "batang mandai". The spirit would always come back unless the festival is celebrated. Normally, Gawai Antu is celebrated a few days after the main Gawai Celebration. The family of the deceased take advantage of the Gawai Celebration to celebrate Gawai Antu since this is the only time when most if not all the longhouse folks are coming home, hence more merrier.

Friends and relatives are notified and invited before hand to make sure they are able to come. A day before the festivals, the host prepare various types of foods for the visitors or "Pengabang". In the morning the "Pengabang" will come in big groups to visit them and they are always ever ready to receive them or "Ngalu Ke Pengabang". Traditionally, when the visitors arrived, the ceremony wll be started by performing a "Miring". But nowadays, since most of the Ibans embrace Christianity, they start the ceremony by reciting a prayer instead.

JPJ Bintulu should improve their counter services

On 11-05-2010, I made a complain regarding JPJ Bintulu counter services to their Director.   Then, JPJ Putrajaya promised to take action, but was not inform what kind of actions will be taken.   Below is my complain:
Pada 11-05-2010 kira-kira jam 2:40pm, saya telah datang ke JPJ Cawangan Bintulu untuk mendaftar kenderaan baru. Pada masa itu, no giliran yang dilayan adalah 4013, dan nombor giliran saya pula ialah 4020. Saya menunggu selama setengah jam. Dalam masa menunggu tersebut, tiba tiba dua (2) orang datang (satu salesman dan satu lagi runner), dan terus ke kaunter no 2 yang dilayan oleh *****. Mereka terus jump queue dan ***** terus melayan mereka, sedangkan saya sudah menunggu selama setengah jam untuk urusan mendaftar kereta baru. Kenapa orang yang datang kemudian dilayan dulu, sedangkan saya sudah menunggu lama dan mengikut nombor yang telah ditetapkan.

Kenapakah terjadi perkara seperti ini, sila berikan penjelasan.

Sekian, terima kasih.

Sg Plan flat residents deprived of fixed telephone line

On Tuesday, 20/04/2010, I went to TM Point at Medan Raya to inquire about the fixed telephone line at Sg Plan flat area.    I approached the counter and ask the receptionist about the subject.    I was quite disappointed at the reply that I got from that receptionist.    The fixed line for this area is still not available and she did not know when it will be installed.    I asked her, why is it so and she just answer me bluntly, "No idea!".    By the look on her face, she was not comfortable with my asking.    So, without further  question, I left feeling frustrated and disappointed.

I was told by her earlier that there are currently lots of pending telephone line applications from the residents of the area, but why they delay the implementations / installations?    Why are these people being deprived of this basic facility?   Currently, only the Sg Plan lot and terrace houses were provided with the telekom's fixed line.
