The Government Is A Temporary Servant Of The People.



(The early results of the Malaysian election showed a strong swing to the opposition. The people is expressing their dissatisfaction with the corruption in the country. This is one of the most significant landmark of Malaysian politics. Whoever wins know that they can no longer ignore the voices of the people.)



It was once said that the moral test of Government is how that Government treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children; those who are in the twilight of life, the elderly; and those who are in the shadows of life, the sick, the needy and the handicapped.

- Hubert H. Humphrey


When the government caters only to the rich and powerful, then it is a government that has lost its moral right to govern.

The government is merely a servant -- merely a temporary servant; it cannot be its prerogative to determine what is right and what is wrong, and decide who is a patriot and who isn't. Its function is to obey orders, not originate them.

- Mark Twain


When a government forgets that it is the servant of the people, it is time to change that government.

People Who Count Theri Chickens.



(Today is "Ren Ri" or People's Day, the 7th day of Chinese New Year. It is also known as Everybody's birthday so today's post is dedicated to people).


“People who count their chickens before they are hatched, act very wisely, because chickens run about so absurdly that it is impossible to count them accurately”

- Oscar Wilde



Chickens who run about, act very wisely, because they know a running target is harder to count, catch.

But individually, we are an individual. Together, we are the faceless public.
