Do you think Anwar can "Satisfy" Saiful?
I’m reading the breaking news from Malaysiakini.com where it says "Ex-Indonesian president believes Anwar is innocent".
Personally, I believe what ex-indonesian president had to say also, Anwar won’t do it as he’s on the way marching to becoming Prime Minister of Malaysia!
My Personal Opinion
Do you think Anwar really can satisfy Saiful? Everytime I read this kinda of news in the newspaper or over the massive websites, questions that I asked are the following:
- Anwar Ibrahim is now 61 years old…
- Anwar Ibrahim got back ache… you know how it happens
- Anwar’s wife, Wan Azizah is so pretty, why he needs a man?
- Is Anwar Ibrahim’s "bruther" so powerful so satisfy Saiful’s ass?
- Why Saiful need his ass-hole to be "cucuk"??
Haizz… Malaysia is really Malaysia Boleh!!! Anything also boleh… Permatang Pauh’s by-election between Anwar Ibrahim and Umno fella is around the corner.. I don’t even remember Umno’s candidate name, but I know Anwar’s name because Anwar is Malaysians hope for our future – economically, politically and more…
If you are the voters in Permatang Pauh, please cast your vote wisely and cast to Anwar!
What Can Malaysian do in Permatang Pauh?
Only this ——> Say NO to UMNO or BN, and YES to PR!
UMNO Last Card in the Game!
Parmatang Pauh by-election is around the corner.. They know Anwar’s winning chance is 100% comparing to the other party… They have no choice but dragging religion into the game beside using money to buy the voters heart, and that is —> Saiful’s swearing on Al-Quran
MP Tian Chua Was In The Same School As Me :)
MP Tian Chua, a man that is no longer a stranger to everyone, serve as Information Chief for Parti Keadilan Rakyat.
I’m now browsing through Tian Chua’s Blog, and when I read through the About page, I realized that Tian Chua was a "Melaka Mali", and was in the same school as me in secondary – Malacca Catholic High School. I’m super proud of it

EmailJunks: This is a Good Choice Than Bicycle If Petrol Gone Up Again!
This is the only choice to save if petrol goes up to RM4.70. I think it’s quite interesting, and yet better than China fellow cycling around in China. Then Malaysia Boleh is much more advanced than Singapore and China already….
Yea…. Malaysia Boleh!!!

MalaysiaToday: Petrol and Diesel Conspiracy?
Source: Malaysia-Today.Net
The diesel engine car is very efficient. So, now, if you spend RM100 and it gave you about 400KM, with Diesel, you spend the same RM100 (assuming Diesel and Petrol is the same price) and yet, you get about 700 to 800 KM of mileage.
By Ganesh
I refer to Petronas’s recent efforts of setting up a RM544 million hospital. Petronas should stick to their specialisation of oil and gas instead of venturing into other non-related areas such as setting up hospitals or Philharmonic Orchestras. Investing in Motorsports and F1 was viable because it was fuel related.
Instead of investing in hospitals, Petronas should be investing in efforts to provide cleaner diesel and also promote diesel car usage.
Why isn’t the Malaysian government promoting diesel cars?
In Europe, for every petrol car sold, 3 diesel cars are sold.
Why? Because Diesel is a much cleaner fuel than petrol and also, surprisingly, a very efficient fuel giving nearly twice the KM.
Malaysians used to believe Diesel cars were dirty because old lorries and old taxis used them. But that was the diesel engine of yesteryears.
Today, the diesel engine, especially the turbo diesel (TDi) car engines produce higher Bhp (more power) than a similar petrol car engine, as well as being a much cleaner fuel than Petrol. In other words, it has much lesser emissions than petrol, while at the same time giving far more mileage than the petrol engine counterpart..
It is now proven by all European Governments that modern car turbodiesel engines (Euro 3 and Euro 4 standards) are more efficient and less polluting (CO emission per km) compared to similar vehicles with similar petrol engine capacity. Nearly all European car manufacturers are now pushing more diesel engines. Even Honda and Toyota produce very efficent small and large cc diesel engines.
Why are the current diesel cars in Malaysia emitting thick black smoke? Firstly, because the engines in them are about 10 to 20 years old. On the newer enginers, like the Mercedes 320 Cdi and BMW 530d, don’t blame the vehicles, blame the dirty diesel if you still see thick black smoke. Our diesel has heavy sulphur content and it is this sulphur that causes a car to emit thick black smoke.
The diesel engine car is very efficient. So, now, if you spend RM100 and it gave you about 400KM, with Diesel, you spend the same RM100 (assuming Diesel and Petrol is the same price) and yet, you get about 700 to 800 KM of mileage.
Why isn’t Petronas or the Government promoting cleaner diesel and also diesel Cars?
If the government is sincere about helping the rakyat and alleviating the hardship of the rakyat, it should promote a fuel that gives nearly double the milegae. At least with the same amount of money spent on fuel, the rakyat will get nearly double the mileage with a Diesel car.
Unfortunately, Petronas is not spending money on providing a cleaner diesel which conforms to EU standards but prefer building a hospital.
Has Malaysian diesel’s sulfur content been reduced yet? There were plans to conform to Euro 2 standards (500ppm sulfur compared to 3000ppm currently), I am not sure whether it has been implemented.
Singapore and Thailand have conformed to Euro 2 for years, and have now progressed to Euro 3 and eventually to Euro 4 standards. Euro 4 standards, which is the current standard in the whole of EU, have much lesser emissions than even Petrol!
It looks like the government, since it owns Petronas, and a substantial stake in Proton, is only promoting the usage of petrol and Petrol cars for and by the general public. Who suffers? The rakyat does. If one has a diesel car, at least whatever he spends now on Petrol, he will get nearly double the mileage. To make matters worse, the road tax on Diesel cars are much higher, a sign to discourage diesel cars and the usage of diesel by the general public.
Is the government encouraging the Rakyat to use more Fuel ie Petrol?
Is it because if we use Diesel, we will be using lesser fuel (for we get more mileage), thus, we will buy lesser fuel, and this in turn will result in lesser revenue for Petronas? And in return, Petronas will pay lesser dividends and company tax to the Government?
Petronas, Perodua and Proton, the three P’s should start promoting diesel cars and diesel fuel to lessen the burden of the suffering rakyat.
