A guy was playing golf one day and he got lost. He saw a lady up
ahead of him and went to her and said, "Can you please help me, I don't
know what hole I'm on." She told him "You are one hole behind me. I'm on 7;
you're on 6." He thanked her and continued playing golf.
Later he got lost again. He saw the same lady and went to her again
kind of embarrassed. "I'm sorry to bother you again but I'm lost again, can
you please tell me what hole I'm on." She told him "you are one hole behind
me. I'm on 14; you are on 13."
Again he thanked her and continued playing golf. when he finished he
saw her in the clubhouse. He went up to her and asked if he could buy her a
drink for helping him out. She accepted.
Other ethnics in Sabah need "champions", says SUHAKAM Commissioner
By Ezra Haganez
KOTA KINABALU: Human Rights Commission of Malaysia or SUHAKAM is of the opinion that other native groups in Sabah, other than the Kadazandusuns, really need to have their own "champions" if they are to upgrade their language to become one of the subjects in schools and colleges.
SUHAKAM Commissioner, Jannie Lasimbang, said this at the SUHAKAM's one-day Workshop on Education for Natives at a hotel here today.
"Other native ethnic groups need to have 'champions' from their own respective communities to bring up the issues of their language to be taught in schools and universities," she said.
She was giving example where the Kadazandusuns language being championed by culturalists in KDCA (Kadazanusun Cultural Association), politicians, and pioneers of NGOs like PACOS Trust and the Kadazandusun Language Foundation (KLF).

Why the Jeffrey agenda will work

THERE IS no denying that a new election fever has taken root, what with leaders talking about preparing for the apparently imminent GE13, denying it, and then speaking of issues in terms of how they will all affect performances in the GE13. And there is already speculation that the GE13 will be next year, perhaps in April or July. This theory has gained currency since the BN victories with the Batu Sapi and Galas by-elections and later reinforced by the turmoil in PKR. Then, the idea of the Third Force under Datuk Zaid Ibrahim, raising the likelihood of the opposition splitting their votes further, gave BN more confidence to win the GE13 with higher margin, even maybe to regain its two-third ma-jority in Parliament. Some observers, however believe BN shouldn’t be unduly swayed by overzealous news carriers saying that it’s time for general elections because the recent by-election victories in Galas and Batu Sapi may not be true reflections of the people’s current sentiment.
PKR’s Dr. Syed Hussein Ali used his speech at the seventh Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) Wanita and Youth congress on Friday to warn that the Third Force could prevent the Pakatan Rakyat (PR) from achieving a huge victory in the next general elections – a clear admittance of the seriousness and potential strength of the Third Force which is now in the process of solidifying into a formal entity. But Syed Hussein’s warning may not be necessarily valid because they are other possible outcomes from the current problems. PKR may lose its lustre and appeal, which is not impossible because this is already happening to PKR Sabah and Sa-rawak! And at the national level, PKR appears to have inadvertently exposed the seeds of its own destruction! Note that if such a fate will indeed befall the whole of PKR, it will have a very serious effect on the morale of the PR. Its other components, DAP and PAS may leave to join the Third Force. If that happens, the Third Force, initially with Datuk Zaid Ibrahim and Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, will become the Second Force, with PKR way behind as a small and no longer significant force!

Jokes for the day
Two guys sneak into a farmer's fruit garden and start eating the fruit. The farmer sees them and comes out with a shotgun. ‘Since you guys like fruit so much go pick 100 of which ever fruit you want,’ said the farmer.
The first guy decides to pick grapes. When he gets 100 he goes back to the farmer.
The farmer says,’now shove em' all up your ass.’
The guy gets all 100 up his ass. He feels really bad, but then he starts to laugh.
‘Why you laughing?’ asked the farmer.
To which the man replied, ‘My friend is out picking watermelons!’

UMNO-led BN is the cause for Sabah miseries, claims MP Tan Kok Wai
By Ezra Haganez
KOTA KINABALU: DAP has singled out UMNO-led Barisan Nasional as the major cause for Sabah's miserable state of affairs including being reduced to become the poorest state in Malaysia, though sitting on the richest of resources.
DAP National Disciplinary Committee Chairman, Tan Kok Wai, said it is the corrupt nature in UMNO-led BN that had plundered Sabah's resources and misapproriated them away from its true target, the rakyat.
"47 years since 1963, Sabah has been under BN's rule, but only political parties and BN leaders have become rich, while the people of Sabah are the poorest in the country. Why? This is a shame," said Kok Wai while officiating the Party's one-day state convention here today.

A good read !.. Whatever you sow, that you shall reap...!
The man slowly looked up. This was a woman clearly accustomed to the finer things of life. Her coat was new. She looked like she had never missed a meal in her life. His first thought was that she wanted to make fun of him, like so many others had done before.
"Leave me alone," he growled...
To his amazement, the woman continued standing. She was smiling -- her even white teeth displayed in dazzling rows. "Are you hungry?" she asked.
"No," he answered sarcastically. "I've just come from dining with the president. Now go away." The woman's smile became even broader. Suddenly the man felt a gentle hand under his arm.
"What are you doing, lady?" the man asked angrily. "I said to leave me alone.
Just then a policeman came up. "Is there any problem, ma'am?" he asked..
"Leave me alone," he growled...

HOLE IN THE RECTUM orang malaya
Guess when the Chinese and Indians were bleeding and dying for this nation, he might just have been a "dirty glint in his father's eyes" or just "swimming in his father's cojones". I will not allow my emotions get to me by being vulgar talking about our Defence Minister who cannot construct a decent sentence in English, I will not dwell on that.
Jokes for the day
A man wanted to celebrate his wife's Birthday by throwing a party.
So he ordered a birthday cake on phone. The salesman asked him what message he wanted to put on the cake.
He thought for a moment and said, put "getting older but you are getting better".
The salesman asked "how do you want me to put it?"
The man said 'Well...put "You are getting older" at the top and
"but you are getting better" at the bottom.
When the cake was unveiled at the party all the guests were aghast at the message on the cake.
It read: "You are getting older at the top, but you are getting better at the bottom"
Moral of the Story:
1. Always proof-read everything before you send.
2. Don't trust others to write it right for you.
3. Don't order cakes by telephone.
Have a good day!!.

Discontinue the Teoh Beng Hock inquest - no one believes it
Teoh Beng Hock’s death has outraged the conscience of this nation. It is difficult to understand how his death could have taken place in a secure area without the knowledge of MACC officials who had complete control over the premises.
His death has distressed us and has raised many questions of propriety in the manner he was treated by the investigating personnel. He was on his feet working the whole of Wednesday, 15 July 2009, when he was taken in at 5.00pm for questioning.
His cruel grilling continued into the wee hours of the next morning until 3.45am the next day — nearly 11 hours after he had gone into the MACC building.
Why should he be subjected to this inhuman torture when he was taken in as a witness to help the MACC?
