Bash. Figurative – criticise severely. Believed to have originated in the 17th Century, perhaps a blend of bang and smash, and dash. Today seemed to me like bang everything and everyone Monday. Or has it always been bang everything and everyone, everyday day? Hard to say. It’s always amusing to be in a car forum, [...]

MyVI vs Savvy : The Great Malaysian Debate
Perodua’s MyVI and Proton’s little Kei-car Savvy seems to be caught in an intense battle for honours. From what I gather and observe in forums and blogs, the bigger MyVI seems to have the upper hand. At times not due to merit alone, but mostly echoed by the negative sentiments about Proton. In the quest [...]
Sepet : The Malaysian Movie
“Sepet” is a very misleading title for a movie. Why? Because people think it’s a Malay movie and avoid it at all costs. Movies like “Gerak Khas: The Movie” does not help, not one bit.

To accept the fact that it is YOUR bank who gives you 0.3% in interest per year on your savings balance is catastrophic enough. I wonder why they call it a ‘Savings’ account when your [...]
Un-Malaysian Malaysians?
I noticed something jaw-opening and mind-bending (for me at least) yesterday while having my usual 6.00pm teh tarik session with my colleagues yesterday. We had diverted to an Indian shop for our drinks and food due to heavy rains, our presence absent from our usual mamak stall. What surprised me was that a couple of [...]
I Not Stupid, I Is Malaysian
The Malaysian transport mentality It’s easy to suddenly have a heart attack or a bout of high blood pressure in Malaysia. Especially if you, like millions of others, rely on public transport for your daily commute. No, this isn’t a blog full of complaints about Malaysia’s lovely public transportation services. I’ll leave that to battle [...]
