The Rotten Stem of the Tongue

Chronobiology, Rumbustious



This week, on A Stray World:

  • Gasing in Space, a Malaysian First;
  • UMNO and the Great Agenda.

Malaysians nationwide rejoiced as the government revealed a planned experiment to test for harmful gases below the Spacecraft Maximum Allowable Concentration (SMAC) index.



Certain items may give off gases that under earthly conditions, remain harmless. In space though, the polar opposite may occur, where wooden objects like a certain Malay wooden toy known as the gasing in its native language may become a biological time bomb.



The same applies for the batu seremban and very much so for the durian (which certainly exceeds the SMAC with what some have described as rotten cheese with caramel.)



This explains why the Malaysian astronaut will be testing out these items when he finally reaches space.



Come on, no government except North Korea would consider playing traditional games in space at the cost US$ 25 million in hard cash and US$900 million worth of jet fighters.



That will be ludicrous beyond belief!



Had I read something like that in a nationally published English daily, I would have laughed till blood came out of my nose.



As our intrepid reporter Ahn Ser Mi found out while skirting the high-end streets of Kuala Lumpur, many actually failed to read between the lines.



Lu: "They are going to play gasings in space? We are a muhibbah nation, they should be playing go and doing the silamban too!"



Akim: "We have a space program that will eventually lead us to the Astrolympics. Way cool."



Moving on.



The UMNO General Assembly is a mildly respectable event for Malay leaders to air their concerns and views.



Being the majority race with limitless power, it is therefore understandable that these group of people need never be afraid of controversial views.



This offers a unique opportunity to bring true change to the country.



For reasons of brevity and amusement, I will now combine all the most productive and supported views during this illuminating event.



"We must stay strong and united as a single entity under the all uniting banner of Islam and Malay Rights.



We will always allow the freedom of religion for the other races but prevent our own from being contaminated with these inferior religions. After all, Islam is the One and True path to God. All non-Muslims therefore must realise Islam supersedes all other religions and to call it equal in stature would be seditious and detrimental to national harmony.



We must also unite in protecting one of our own. Even though the Datuk erred in his placement of his illegally built palace, we shouldn't let the other races attack him as an attack on him is an attack against UMNO. To our fellow brethren who have joined forces with these people, you are hereby branded traitors and will shortly be visited by the Parliamentary Whip.



Due to the recent uproar over the bumiputra stake, we have also confirmed rumours that our actual target is over 70% control of the nations economy. As soon as this target is reached, we will then aim for 99% control of the nation's economy and not 100% because we know the other races still need the 1% to survive.



We also state our moderate policies are for the benefit of all. For many long years, we have continued to ignore pollution, unsustainable development, and waste management and we strive to continue to ignore these issues so we may all discuss the equal distribution of wealth in this country.



Thank you and long live Tanah Melayu!"

I have always known that. But democracy is at work, and whatever he may have said can't reverse what he has done.
