The changes/progress my country has experienced from 9.5.2018 till today...


...And other changes I would like to see in the future.

9/5/2018 was a historical moment for our country, Malaysia. It is the first time where our country switched our governing party since our independence. It is the moment where, for once, every single person of our country stood up against the obviously flawed and rigged and election, and fought for a new, a government that is much more capable than the last.

As soon as the cabinet changed, our new governing party, Pakatan Harapan, initiated a flurry of actions that would slowly bear fruit with the help of Father Time. One such action was the downfall of GST, or Goods and Service Tax if you will. It was reduced to 0%. This, obviously improved lives for everyone.

Following that, petroleum prices that used to changed every single Wednesday was stabilized. That means no more gambling whether to fill up or not anymore !

And perhaps the most important of all, the investigation of the 1MDB scandal. I wonder our last prime minister is still able to use donation as a reason ?

Overall, this is a nice thing for a change. And I would like to see more improvement to the general road system, maybe the education system that is so flawed by today standards.

Regarding Pakatan Harapan's future plans, I hope that they can initiate whatever they stated in their manifesto, and this time, actually take action.

Cheers,
Chua.

Writing a 10 word story

Welcome back folks. Sadly, it seems that third time isn't a charm. Oh well, back to basics. Anyway, I hope you had a good week. I'm sure many of you had written essays throughout your lifetime. Whether its an essay for school which is usually 200 ~ 400 words long, a story (length may vary) or even a thesis paper (thousands). Depending on your age and level of English education of course. Personal record, 13 thousand words in a story named Chrono Switch . I assume you already read the title and hence clicked on this post for... actually why did you clicked on this post? Either way, we were instructed to write a ten word story, with the word "spooky" being mandatory in the story. And with Halloween coming around the corner, I can see why they picked that specific word. I too, enjoy writing weird story that are outfitted with details and character development. So writing a ten word story is quite an interesting challenge. Coming up with something with a broad theme...

My English Blog

R. Welcome back to another blog post folks. Today, we're going to talk about... scrolls Whatsapp ... give me a minute...  Huh.  My feelings on the blog and whether it has benefited me thus far. So let's talk about that. Ah... An English Block of Word . Not the best name I came out with, but it's still quite creative. I started this blog last year January on the 6th. At first when I came about the idea of writing a blog, actually no, it wasn't an idea, it was a weekly homework given by our dear teacher Pn Monica, with different topics every week. Honestly, when I first got the assignment to write a blog as homework, I was kind of amazed. Integration of the usage of the Internet and it's on my favourite subject? Score. Of course, this wasn't the first time I started the blog, my third time, in fact, the last two being some websites to share my own written fictional stories to my friends. Given a platform, and a focus to write on makes everything much easier ...

Isolation

S. Welcome back to another blog post folks, to preface this, this blog is going to be a long one, so um leave now if you don't like that. Also, if anyone is here just to see what topic it is for this week... uhm, don't. Because I chose to do a free topic here and did my literature essay in my literature book. So yeah, let's begin. Homo Sapiens . The only species from the genus Homo still exists. Of course, we have half-Neanderthals living around the world, but for the sake of this blog post, let's just say that we only have Homo Sapiens  around, okay? Once upon a time on Earth, there are several species from the genus Homo , 15, in fact, so far. Yet, as of today, 2019, we only know of one that successfully persisted through several wars and famine, disasters and conflicts, the Homo Sapiens . We built civilization from the ground up, stemming from rivers of the world, then conquering the world itself.  As much as I would like to talk about Homo Sapiens an...
