No More Yoga for Christian??

Okie , this thing have been around for a few days, but never bother about it anyway until............



I read today's newspaper, Daily Express



According to it, George Thien, Sacred Heart Cathedral Youth counsellor said that it is not difficult to understand the reason why Fatwa is banning Muslims on yoga, because it involve mantra (chants) and the concept of oneness with God which are based on Hindu beliefs and, thus, deviate the faith of Muslim.

And as Tun M said " It is not as if by performing Yoga you immediately become a non-Muslim" or should I say U will become a Hindu!

Sigh ............... sigh ...................sigh ..........................sigh...............................

Understood! If its with the Chanting & meditation of course its haram kan, but what if its only involve exercises & stretching? So Wendy is a devoted Hindu now because she went to Yoga class every week? sigh.........This has now becoming a religious issue.


And now the Catholics also not in favour of yoga?sigh .......

A promise is a promise ...

Yup .. a promise is a promise ! But whether they do as what their promised is another story!



Anyhow ..another surprise from our beloved PM??



Few days ago, Datuk Sharir Abdul Samad told Malaysians that we can expect cheaper food price after the government has reduce fuel price (following the drop in world oil price). When asked specifically which "food item" to be reduced, he said .." wait until friday".



So, why wait? Why not announce now ..? Oklah this is purely my opinion only lah aahhh .. I think aahh the government doesn't want to announce it yet purely because they still don;t know which item to reduce . Issiitt the price of the egg?? chicken ? rice? or what woorrr?? I told hub they will reduce the price for the bombay onion ..because Datuk Sharukh Khan is the importer for the Bombay Onion!!! muahahahahahhahha ....



Oh well .. today is only WEDNESDAY !

Updates!

What have I done lately? Not much activity actually ... Last Saturday I decided to try one of the recipe from my cookbook, Doughnuts! hehe ... and Phoebe has her fun time decorating her donut with melted chocolate & chips with some funny star shape candy ........ The next day we just stay at home because daddy have to attend some class. And during lunch time we went to McD at the Terminal 1 airport with hubby & Uncle Ben. After fetching hubby from class, we went to Lokawi Army camp to buy some food from the Bazaar Ramahdan there ...After the whole day eating junks .. that nite my nightmare came! Phoebe keeps on vomiting & Isaac got diarrhea ...And I got stomach upset too! My gawdd, I'm not sure what has caused it but the kids didn't eat the food I bought from the Bazaar Ramahdan, only me & hubby... I pity Phoebe because she cannot even take anything only pure water ... That night before sleep, Phoebe told me that she doesn't want to go to school the next day because she scared that she will start vomiting in class .... ohh poor girl! so mummy have to look after the sick girl at home (and of course Isaac also have to stay at home)

During the Mooncake Fest. we went to Gaya Street but since there is no "valid" parking space (unless u park curi2 lah ... but no we are not an idiot who just simply park their cars anywhere ok..) so we left lah ... Phoebe was so sad because she didn't get to watch the performance & the lanterns.

Last wednesday hubby went outstation, so left me & the kids at home. Luckily they have been very "kuai kuai" but Phoebe miss her daddy soo much that she keeps on asking when is daddy coming home ..... *sigh*

So, can't wait for weekend tomorrow.....



Lately I have been watching news around the clock. Why? because politics is getting more interesting from day to day... and I wonder why do people make such a big fuss about 31.08 or 16.09, before this nobody even care, so why now? Don't say that I didn't learn my history ... *sigh*

Latest News!!!!

Latest Report By The Star

Rumours spark petrol panic in Sabah


KOTA KINABALU: Petrol kiosks were jammed with motorists as panic-buying of fuel was seen throughout Sabah over rumours of petrol kiosks closing down for three days.

The panic was triggered by rumours that petrol kiosk will shut down from Wednesday because protesting kiosk dealers nationwide were demanding higher commissions following the recent fuel hike.

Officials from Shell Malaysia and the Sabah Petroleum Dealers Association stressed that there was no truth to the rumour, and urged people not to resort to panic buying.

Luckily hub didn't join all the crowds at the petrol kiosk just now ..(he called up his friend attached with Shell earlier ... and he denied the rumours ..hehe)


Lucky us.......pheww!

Boycott by Petrol Station today??

I got 3 smses today about the petrol station won't be selling any fuel wef 2pm Today! At first I didn't bother because I thought like...."WTH??who was so free to circulate this type of SMS aahh?" and the source is not very reliable .. (normal lah .. if the info is already from 1 person to the other..) Anyway my ex-colleague called me up just a few moments ago and informs me that the "Fleet Card" has been suspended temporarily until further notice. And according to the drivers they have to fill up before 2pm as the petrol kiosk won't be selling fuel to anyone after that.
Is this a cheap gimmick or what...? So I checked the Internet ....... and I found this instead!



Petrol kiosks may stop credit card payments

CONSUMERS may not be able to use credit cards to pay for petrol soon as the Petrol Dealers Association of Malaysia (PDAM) has issued a letter to its
members asking them not to accept such cards for the time being, Sin Chew Daily
reported.Association deputy president Datuk Zulkifli Mokti said its 3,500
members would only take cash pending the meeting with the Government on the
service charge issue. He said banks charge 1% service charge on every litre
of petrol sold. “Petrol dealers paid 1.9 sen on every litre as service charge
when the petrol price was RM1.90 per litre, and now we have to pay 2.7 sen as
the petrol price has been raised to RM2.70 per litre,” he said. The petrol
dealers also would not accept the diesel subsidy card during this period, it
reported.

Fuel Hike, Again?

I was reading the news online a few minutes ago .. something caught my attention....

No More Fuel Price Hike This Year, Says PM


PUTRAJAYA, June 11 (Bernama) -- The prices of petrol and diesel will not be raised any more this year so as to ease the burden on the people, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said Wednesday.The prime minister said this decision was made though the global oil price was expected to soar in the coming months.The current prices of fuel would be maintained even if the global oil price reaches US$200 a barrel this year, he told a news conference at his office here.Abdullah said the government had not set a ceiling for the global oil price in the future in deciding to keep to its assurance on retaining the current fuel prices for this year.He said the
government was aware that the people were striving to adjust to the current
situation of high fuel prices.Last Wednesday, the government announced an
increase of 78 sen or 41 per cent in the price of petrol, from RM1.92 to RM2.70
per litre, and an increase of RM1 or 63 per cent in the price of diesel, from
RM1.58 to RM2.58 per litre. The prices took effect on Thursday.

WTH??? Isn't he , our PM Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi who said earlier that there would be no fuel hike until August , but the next day ... taaaa daaaaa !! New petrol price was up by 79cents?????!!! He said there will be no more surprising & frightening news. Don't you people noticed something? Whenever there is a price increased that is soon followed by a barrage of advice. Mostly by our politicians . The ever-popular piece of advice ... "change your lifestyle". It probably means like .. yeah , go eat ubi kayu (tapioca) & pinantung (can't translate - but very famous in Kuala Penyu) and live in trees!!! and don't drive your car ... use kerbau (Buffalo) better no need to fill up fuel... cieeeeee !

And President of CASH was saying that if we have some spare land we should start planting vegetables. So what about those staying in high rise like apartments huhhh?? No need to eat vege. lah like that??? In addition to our 8 hours a day work in the office , we have to spare another 2 more hours to work as a farmer behind our houses? so total in a day we work for 10 hours????!!! The next thing you know DBKK will pay a visit to your house and confiscate your vegetable for unlicensed farming and issue you a summons to appear in court ??? OMG ...

So, do you think that the advice they give us is useful???? Use your brain lah, moronsssss !!!

BTW, back to our Dearest PM ..... is there anymore surprises dear PM??
Like when you said no more hike .. next day boommmm! up by 79cents.
When u said I am not getting married... the next month u get married.
and bla ... bla ... bla ....

And now you said no more price hike this year ... the next day???

I can hear everybody scream at the petrol station .....What the **** ???????





p.s see, I'm so free today I can do 3 posting in a day woorr? hehe ...

Cut Cost??

Everyday we read in the newspaper the government want to implement this and that ... Everyday they come up with new idea how to save money (kunun) and everyday they keep on saying "change your lifestyle, save save save ... and so on" ... and I am getting sick of hearing all this ....Why? Because they keep on talking but no action made! WTH????!!!!


Anyway .. recently a few officers from Land & Survey Dept from Sandakan went to our Island. We were so surprised because they didn't inform us that they will be going there to do "sukat-menyukat" for mapping purpose konon ... And I asked one of the officer (So-called Mandur)




Me : Eiii ...so how come your Dept. didn't inform us earlier that you are coming?


Officer : Oohh .. we thought that the island is still deserted ...


Me : (hmmm .. u mean like there is nobody there except for alligator & sand
flies???) Ooohh I see ... But how come not from KK aahh? How come they send from Sandakan?


Officer : (Big smile...) hehehe .. ya lor, we swap with KK teams because we will get outstation allowance & etc. So KK guys will be doing sandakan & Tawau ..


Me : OMG!! (Stunned....)




WTH??? They are taking advantage of the Govt's money (which was supposed to be "The People's Money") .. since the fuel hike everybody is trying to find side-income. And suddenly they are so "rajin" to do field works because they can claim a lot of things, and it is much better if it is outside their district. And why the hell did their Ketua Jabatan approved this? Aren't the government trying to save money for the people's need?????

Petrol Price is up again ...

I know .. I might not be the first person to report on the price hike, but yup! it's not just fuel but other things as well...like rice.



PUTRAJAYA: The Government announced yesterday an increase in petrol and diesel prices, stating that it can no longer continue to subsidise fuel.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said the new prices were still at a 30-sen per litre discount from market prices. In other words, if the market
price is RM3 per litre, Malaysians will be charged RM2.70 at the pump. He said
the price would be adjusted monthly based on the global oil price.

Source : the star


Haha .. they just want to sound nice like .."hei other people pay $3 woorr.. you only pay for $2.70, that also want to make noise ahhh?". Well, of course .. it is about 40% hike wooorrr ..And the Goverment said the price of fuel will be reviewed monthly?






The guy above (Who the hell is he? ... ahhh doesn't matter) is trying to show 2 bottle of mineral water ... the difference of how much petrol one can buy with RM1.00 on wednesday & thursday ... See?? so much different kan




So overall the changes are (or more to the price hike...)


Price increase
Petrol – RM0.78/litre
Diesel – RM1/litre

Electricity:
Commercial and industrial – 26%
Retailers and small restaurant operators – 18% (for first 200kWh per month)
Residential – new pricing structure for users above 200kWh per month
(I'm not sure wether this price is only aplicable for west malaysia only)


Prices effective today (per litre)
Petrol – RM2.70 (previously RM1.92)
Diesel – RM2.58 (previously RM1.58)


Rebates
> RM625 per year For private vehicle with engine capacity of 2000cc and below, including private pickup trucks and jeeps with engine capacity of 2500cc and below.

> RM200 per month for every owner and employee of Malaysian-owned vessels registered with the Fisheries Department
> 10sen per kilo incentive for every kilogram of fish caught by registered vessels
> 10sen per litre for every litre of diesel used by river transportation operators according to approved quota


Electricity tariff restructure
> Households using 200kWh and below every month will not be affected. This covers 59% of households in Peninsular Malaysia with a monthly bill under RM43.60.
> Commercial and industrial users face 26% increase. Small retail and business outlets consuming under 200kWh per month face 18% increase.
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) andNatural Gas for Vehicle (NGV)
> No change. Prices remain at RM1.75 per kg (LPG) and RM0.635 per litre (NGV)
Oil palm windfall tax
> For Peninsular Malaysia 15% for every tonne of CPO exceeding RM2,000
> Sabah and Sarawak 7.5% for every tonne of CPO exceeding RM2,000 > Abolition of cess tax
Service tax threshold for restaurants and eateries
> Service tax now for restaurants with annual sales of RM3mil (previously RM500,000)


And the goverment said this is how much the comparison with other country.


p.s I also heard rumours that cooking gas price won't go up for now ...but the home delivery charges may be increased in wake of the fuel price hike .... :(
