There are drivers who don't give a single thought about other road users, so much so that they think they own the roads on which their cars are driven.  And in doing so, they deliberately ignore the safety of others (not worth thinking of their safety if they themselves ignore it!)

I read with much glee the other day when a prominent figure made a statement expressing a slight relief when informed that based on the current SPM curriculum, only 20% students fail English every year and that he is confident that the number will be reduced by 2016.

Star Q


There is indeed a lot of fuss nowadays about the proficiency of our children in English Language.  It has become a normalcy to here people from all quarters, from the ministers to the layman, from fishmongers to doctors, blaming teachers for this sad predicament.  

Only For Those Worthy Enough

Once a while you get very generous people, philanthropist if you will, doing good deeds and at the same time not wanting other people to know about.  It is however, not always possible to hide from the public, a good deed of such an immense generosity mainly because the people (or just one person!) on the receiving end of this deal will eventually spill the beans.  Besides, the public will eventually get to know about it because such a noteworthy gesture is the thing that popular media is hungry for and is always ready to disseminate. 

After Two Years.....

Can't believe that I have been too busy to write that I have actually left this blog untouched for two long years.  A lot of thing...
