[我思故我在]雪华青 - Feel like home

那天去雪华青的干训营，我有点像回到大学时期那样开心。前进和进步，大家的思想都很接近。爽！毕业后，两年在乡团混，坦白说，越混越不爽：保守，争权斗力，吃喝玩乐，不专业。

雪华青关心的，都是我的终极关怀人道主义中的民主和人权。那天计划了许多东西，真的希望能做的好。但是，计划是多，但还是要踏实些，不可勉强。

加油了这届的雪华青！大家在看我们的了。

[侧眼看世界]Barbarian University - Violence in UPM

After graduating for so many years from university, this time I am really angry over what is happening in UPM.

Well, it’s very common that some so called pro-establishment students with the support from the authority bullying those pro-student organizations. During my campus day, we did face similar threatening before. The good thing is not fighting as happen now. They threatened our candidates, especially female candidates. So pleasure that we have a tough girl that time and also a team to cooperate and operate.

With the help of technology, we know what the ugly scene happen in campus now. The MPP President (or SRC in English) of UPM, together with 12th colleague committees and university security, act violent toward a group of progressive students in their canteen. What made the worst is, the Royal police of Malaysia did not protect the victims !!!
Are these the future leaders grown by BN-UMNO? They are barbarian and uncivilized at all. They make Malaysia shame and never archive Vision 2020. Look at the photo and video on YouTube.com then you will know my ANGER.

Some people will think the crash in UPM is racist one, I’ll TOTALLY disagree with it! The problem is between civilian and barbarian; progressive versus conservative, …. Progressive Islamist group of UPM been forced out to operate outside campus. Now, today they attack on the last progressive group of students in UPM, whose are dominant Chinese and also the victim, Chinese Language Society of UPM. CLS of both MMU campus, what are you dreaming now? Do you awake what is happening outside your ivory tower and cyber virtual world? Would you show your solidarity toward other CLS in Malaysia?

Lastly, I miss my comrades in campus: WP, Cord, Sarah, JY, Onn, Daphne, EL, Gmon, Gibie, ES, Ken and a lot more, which I don’t mention their name here. After graduated, what can we do for our future generation? Shall we do something?

[文化大不同] Pirates of The Caribbean

Pirates of the Caribbean I: The Curse of the Black Pearl
我还记得,Pirates of The Caribbean 1 是我2004年在沙巴州亚庇工作时看的.那时,工作完了,与当地的一位老板吃了便宜又新鲜的海鲜晚餐,回到酒店才晚上八点不到.那里,天6点就开始暗了;8点的感觉就象在西马这里的10点,好些店铺都关门了.

那天是在亚庇的最后一天,接着要到山打根去继续工作.望望酒店对面的商场,有一间全沙巴州唯一的戏院.想了想就去买了3部电影中我唯一有兴趣看的电影-Pirates of The Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.这戏在西马该下画了,但在亚庇确是火红的上影着.很象也是最后一两天,可是戏院还是爆满.买了前几排的票,也不计较,反正明天是中午的飞机.

那戏院有点象我们当年的大戏院,木的椅子.冷气很冷,我还穿短裤.我的妈啊!

就这样,我被它(海盗)吸引了;就这样我被她(Kiera Knightley)吸引啦!

Pirates of the Caribbean II: Dead Man's Chest - official website
第二集的预告片在多个月前已经出现,让我心痒痒的,迫不及待要等电影上映.

那天看了回来,就看到Uncle Sim在他的YM说"Pirates of the Caribbeans 是骗小孩的戏!".哈哈!Why I like the movie? That is a good question. 因为我喜欢女主角?因为我喜欢片种?也许是Jonny Deep那天才似的演绎,把角色演活了,如果没有他,整套戏就没什么特别了.Orlando Bloom也是假的.当然,不能忽视电影中特效.第一集的骨头人,到第二集的海鲜人都不错.
只是2004年,导演和公司没想到会那么成功,也没拍续集的打算.可是这回不同了,在第二集就留个大尾巴给第三集.诶,太商业考量了.明年就可以看到周润发在Pirate of the Caribbeans III: At World's End 里和Johhny Deep, Orlando Bloom,Kiera Knightley飃戏.哈哈!

Oh yeah Johhny & Kiera !!! I love you!

p/s: some games on their official site are quite interesting, especially the dice & liar game.

[侧眼看世界] The Return of Tun Dr Mahathir

老马回国后不知又会和拉伯玩什么把戏!

马来西亚的财务已经很严紧,下半年经济也不明朗.在这样玩下去,不死都半条命.现在中东又在打仗,油价又冲破80美元.看来,我们的汽油在年尾或明年初要起价15-30仙了!
斗吧!斗吧!两只大象相斗,受伤的永远是我们.

还有,鹤蚌相争,渔翁得利.就不知道这渔翁是谁?安华?回教党?新加坡?美国?还是撒旦和罗杀?

[我思故我在]End of a Generation一个时代的结束

2006年在德国举行的世界杯结束了。它也代表着一个时代的结束。我从1994 年的世界杯开始追，到现在12年了。当年看着意大利输决赛到今年看他们如何背负着压力和丑闻，赢得世界杯！下届世界杯在南非，希望到时候有钱可以去逛逛。

有人说这届的世界杯拯救了疲落的德国经济和缓和了德国的政治分裂，也团结了莅临社会崩溃的法国。希望那足球真的是法力无边的灵丹。

世界杯的落幕，让许多人，尤其是大马人的生活回归正常和规律。同时，他也代表足球世界里，一个时代的结束。自古，英雄都是以悲剧收场，今届的世界也是。最悲壮的该是Zinade Zidane在决赛红卡被罚下。除了Zidane， 还有Luis Figo, Cafu, Roberto Carlos, Ronaldo, Sol Campbell, David Beckham, Michael Owen, Pavel Neved, Henrik Larsson, Oliver Kahn, 等等。

时代是结束了，但我们看不到新一代的巨星的出现。新人是有的，但就是稚气不能独当一面，水平漂浮不定，功夫还不到家。Rooney吗？C Ronaldo吗？Messi吗？非也，非也！那是谁？我看不到。1994年，我们看到Henrik Larsson, Romario, Roberto Baggio。1998年，我们看到Ronaldo, Zidane, Owen 等人；2002年有Ballack, Ronaldino, Klose等。今天呢？ 还是Ballack, Ronaldo, Klose。（其他没表现的不谈，如Totti, Raul, Beckham…）也许，后现代真的是五花八门的时代（五胡乱华？），没有一个巨星，但有很多的小星星。

写着写着，想起了我的队伍-猪朋狗友（4条狗，1只猪）。他们是伟江，子斌，顺威，立康和国伟。这些人，算是马六甲多媒体大学的第一代辩论队（当然大炮王迟些加入我们）。恭喜他们都顺利地在今年毕业了，convo在8月中。这5人可说我最倚重和可靠的辩论人才。我们的队伍可以这么短期内崛起，没了他们任何一人是不行的。说我偏心也好，善用人才也好；但征战多年，大家都显得有些迟暮和力不从心。这也许是一个时代的结束。希望大家毕业后，在职场或研究事业上，一舫风顺，给学弟妹们个好榜样。

这真的是一个时代的结束！
