Vote Earth Now!

At this day and age, with all the current technologies and speeds of communications, the world could unite to a common goal. Global warming is real and each and everyone of us would need to do our part. We now have a chance to show we care.

I realize as I get older and hopefully more mature, things that use to bore me such as financial news, the evening news, adult stuff are now so important and I try my best daily to keep updated. Gone are the days of daily reading of comic strips and enjoying morning cartoons. Now with this global event, show your maturity and the importance as change begins with us. Each and everyone of us.

Show that you are educated, show that you are mature, show that you care, show that you matter. Cast your vote. Vote now. Vote earth. Show the world, we can stand as one. It begins now… this Saturday 28/03/2009. It’s EARTH HOUR! At 2030 to 2130 (That’s 08:30 – 9:30pm) turn off all the electricity for one hour.

This is great and tomorrow I would need to get candles!

Edison, Cecilia, Bobo, Gillian … ahem ahem?!?

Well… I couldn’t help but post this up. I know I shouldn’t and I’m not SAMPAT. But it’s for all those people who are CLUELESS to what those 4 names are about and how they are linked together. Well, if you don’t know… you should google them and add the word ’sex’ as well. Hehehehe.

It’s the gossip of the week as they have been releasing photos of Edison Chen’s conquests over the week since last Monday all over the HK gossip mags, newspaper and of course the internet. To think of it, poor Cecilia just got married to Nicholas Tse and had a baby late 2007… tsk tsk tsk. No comment.

I got news of it yesterday when my friend sent me some online pictures and after viewing them I could recognize the familiar faces…. (He got it from a friend in HK so it seems). Anyways, long story short… all I can think of this is:

1. They are humans too and humans have sex. That’s a FACT.
2. I wouldn’t want to be a celebrity… Imagine your nude photos all over the net and …. yea, practically half the world would have seen your *ahems*.
3. Kinda sad to have your privacy invaded like that… sigh.
4. But hey it’s GOSSIP….
5. Moral of the story. Don’t pose nude, Don’t get too drunk or high and lastly … remove your HDD before you send for repair and have one helluva firewall and password to your PC!

Cheers!… now you know.

An eye for an eye?

I initially wanted to blog about my trip to Vietnam today. But as I was having dinner watching the CNN news on my tv, I can’t help but to blog about the UN tribunal that starts today towards the atrosities and inhuman acts commited to the Cambodian people during the Khmer Rouge years.  The Cambodia genocide tribunal begins today towards the 5 (heard from the news) Khmer Rouge leaders.

Whilst eating my dinner and interested in the news after my backpacking trip to Cambodia, hearing the name ‘Duch’ got more of my attention. That ‘nickname’ which I clearly remember was the leader of ‘Tuol-Sleng’ also known as S-21 which was the torture prison which many if not ALL the prisoners are doomed to death.

CNN then shown a short clip of an elderly man which was one of the lucky few prisoners to actually live, tell his sorrow tale. Then it got me thinking… it has been so many years since the genocide (1970s), shouldn’t these people be ALREADY be trialled and punished already? To make things worst is to hear that the trials would be on-going till 2010!!!

Putting that aside… the main question here is should death be a verdict of these trial??? ’An eye for an eye…’

*Please note that in Cambodia, an estimated 2 million innocent Cambodian died during the Khmer Rouge regime. This ‘person’ would need many ‘eyes’ just to be even.
