Democracy in Thailand..
Every country has its own brand of democracy. So is Thailand a country which had long history of military rule. As far as I know Thailand had never been colonised. When Japan wanted to invade British Malaya, Thailand allowed Japanese troops a free passage as long as they were not disturbed. Apart from that Tailand remained neutral during world war two.
For the last few months street of Bankok were full with red shirt protesters who demanded Thai Premier to resigned and conduct a fresh election as the previous one was tainted with corruption as alleged by them.
Thailand economy is taking a beating as a result of that.
The latest twist is that Thai Election Commission had ordered the ruling party to be dissolved for allegedly misusing campaign fund. Interesting to see if the government will heed such ruling. Well our own political scenario is very pale compared to Thailand.

Work from Home Programme.
Latest finding some working house wife are not keen to have their husband working at home. Working at home apparently do increase productivity especially if you have young maid at home. That's what make the wife worried.

Fighting over a car.
A royal family is just like any other family and fighting over a car is nothing new. The only different is the car is a Bentley (same marque used by agent 007) valued at cool 1.6M. Daddy is still alive and children is already fighting for his asset not to mention the throne. A high profile case that appeared in STAR newspaper to day. Isn't it about time somebody come up with Royalty magazine like in Great Britain. I am sure there are lot to write about them giving their penchant for model and artist. At least such initiative would encourage reading habit among the Malays.
Nice pattern
Close up
Wrong Signal.
I was attracted by this nice art work which is actually a food sample used by one of the food outlet at Ampang Park. When I get closer my appreciation turned 180 degrees. The food stuff was infested with bugs. I just wonder why the operator did not remove it. Probably it never affected his sale since Malaysian consumer never bothered of such thing.
