Wonderful postings u have in here. I pity the less fortunate people being 'ignored' despite their matters being mentioned in the media. These media, yes, they are all the mainstream ones that published the stories of how the disabled go around in the society. It's just a gimmick. They tried to show that they are pitiful but actually they are sitting down in their comfy chairs doing other stuff. On our quality of English, I think it the curriculum matter should be looked into seriously. In my case, I like good English. I salute good English users. But when I use the language I tend to make so many mistakes. I am not a verbal person though and that's why I prefer writing because I can organise what I'm going to deliver. <strong>Peter: Gong xi fa cai. Please do not pity disabled people. We prefer the equalization of opportunities. Work with us to make Malaysia a country that does not discriminate against disabled people.</strong> Hi Peter (n all Malaysian Chinese),

There is an upsurge of "blue wave" lovers going around. So best you speak to what you have in mind. I enjoy reading your blog and will continue to read it. Who cares if whichever party wins. Do we get anything in return? I guess at most, we get crap like " it looks like me, it sounds like me, it's not me - correct, correct, correct...I will fight even with an army, close down the brother schools, bocorism.....aiya...I think I have said enough. <strong>Peter: The compass is working. :D</strong> Stay on course.

Imagine how many blogs we have to read every day. If we are kind enough, you get a comment. Or if you are popular enough, you get more. <strong>Peter: I am neither into blogging for popularity nor here to pander to anyone's fancy. There are more than one way to skin a cat. Likewise, there are many ways one can choose to write on a selected topic. You come, you read, you like it, you are welcomed to return for more. If not, thank you for dropping by anyway. It is not your place to come and tell me how I should write here. Your suggestion is noted but no thank you.
