Update: Also from The Star News Alert: “Umno veteran and former Kedah Menteri Besar Sanusi Junid also said he has quit Umno, will release official statement later” Oh, oh. A new political tsunami? I think all it will take is one current MP or even more significant, Cabinet member,...

Just a quick one. I had just returned from watching a play staging at KLpac called Good People (okay, so I had a drink after the show, sue me). It is a Singaporean production by The Necessary Stage, a company run by my friends Alvin and Haresh (so I hope they don’t mind me stealing this...

On Wednesday, me, Elaine and a couple of friends drove over to 1-Utama to catch Marie Digby in person. I have to admit that I wasn’t a fan, and the only song I know from her is her cover of Rihanna’s Umbrella. Still, Hansen thought she smelt nice when they interviewed her on the...

In anticipation of this week’s American Idol (and hoping that Jason Castro gets the hell off finally get the boot), I decided to blog this post. Every now and then, when I get some free time, I like to scour Yahoo! News for strange stories which we don’t often read about –...

This morning, I received a phone call from a friend asking if anyone from the office had heard from a colleague of mine who had been in Myanmar. At that point, I knew about the cyclone hitting the country but reports that I was reading only (okay, it’s still a lot) noted 350 people...

Well, who would’ve thought? When I first read the news about Australian Minister of Water and Climate Change Penny Wong, it was in The Star celebrating the fact that the 40-year-old Senator is Malaysian-born. Her full name is Penelope Wong Ying Yen, and she was born in Kota Kinabalu,...
