POST GE13 - GREED & LUST


SWORD OF DAMOCLES by: James Baldwin, The Book of Virtues

There once was a king named Dionysius who ruled in Syracuse, the richest city in Sicily. He lived in a fine palace where there were many beautiful and costly things, and he was waited upon by a host of servants who were always ready to do his bidding.
Naturally, because Dionysius had so much wealth and power, there were many in Syracuse who envied his good fortune. Damocles was one of these. He was one of Dionysius's best friends, and he was always saying to him, "How lucky you are! You have everything anyone could wish for. You must be the happiest man in the world."
One day Dionysius grew tired of hearing such talk. "Come now," he said, "do you really think I'm happier than everyone else?"
"But of course you are," Damocles replied. "Look at the great treasures you possess, and the power you hold. You have not a single worry in the world. How could life be any better?"
"Perhaps you would like to change places with me," said Dionysius.
"Oh, I would never dream of that," said Damocles. "But if I could only have your riches and your pleasures for one day, I should never want any greater happiness."
"Very well. Trade places with me for just one day, and you shall have them."
And so, the next day, Damocles was led to the palace, and all the servants were instructed to treat him as their master. They dressed him in royal robes, and placed on his head a crown of gold. He sat down at a table in the banquet hall, and rich foods were set before him. Nothing was wanting that could give him pleasure. There were costly wines, and beautiful flowers, and rare perfumes, and delightful music. He rested himself among soft cushions, and felt he was the happiest man in all the world.
"Ah, this is the life," he sighed to Dionysius, who sat at the other end of the long table. "I've never enjoyed myself so much."
And as he raised a cup to his lips, he lifted his eyes toward the ceiling. What was that dangling above him, with its point almost touching his head?
Damocles stiffened. The smile faded from his lips, and his face turned ashy pale. His hands trembled. He wanted no more food, no more wine, no more music. He only wanted to be out of the palace, far away, he cared no where. For directly above his head hung a sword, held to the ceiling by only a single horsehair. Its sharp blade glittered as it pointed right between his eyes. He started to jump up and run, but stopped himself, frightened that any sudden move might snap the thin thread and bring the sword down. He sat frozen to his chair.
"What is the matter, my friend?" Dionysius asked. "You seem to have lost your appetite."
"That sword! That sword!" whispered Damocles. "Don't you see it?"
"Of course I see it," said Dionysius. "I see it every day. It always hangs over my head, and there is always the chance someone or something may cut the slim thread. Perhaps one of my own advisors will grow jealous of my power and try to kill me. Or someone may spread lies about me, to turn people against me. It may be that a neighboring kingdom will send an army to seize this throne. Or I might make an unwise decision that will bring my downfall. If you want to be a leader, you must be willing to accept these risks. They come with the power, you see."
"Yes, I do see," said Damocles. "I see now that I was mistaken, and that you have much to think about besides your riches and fame. Please take your place, and let me go back to my own house."
And as long as he lived, Damocles never again wanted to change places, even for a moment, with the king.

Why should you vote for me in GE13?



I was born in Kuching, five days after Dr. Mahathir Mohamad became the fourth Prime Minister of Malaysia. The year when the leaders were born.
I came from a family which relatively has nothing but Strength and Will to live.
I was a practising lawyer in General Litigation Department from 2006-2012. I left practice to venture into Corporate World. Only God knows when I should return to the ring.
Currently, I am one of the Counsels of award winning company which operates all over the world. I’m doing just fine and getting along very well with my new role.
I have been a writer since 2010. Actually I like to write since my school days but did not keep my writing as I don’t want to be judged.
Now, I write regularly on my thoughts and feelings in http://rbassociates21.blogspot.com/. It creates real impact to my readers (I hope so).
I hate people who think they know everything. You know what I’m saying.
I can’t stand a person who is a pain in the ass type. You know what I mean.
I can’t live with someone who doesn’t like COKE without any reason at all!
Why should you vote for me as your ADUN?
I’m a good leader.
I will fulfill all promises and will get rid of ass kissers.
I don’t think you should vote my opponent if he has no respectable behavior to all persons. Don’t misquote me. I said “If” he has no respectable behavior.
Most importantly, you shouldn’t vote if he has moral issues. Leader who has moral problems will have a problem in deciding when to put his country and his people best interest ahead of his own agenda.
What I can tell you for sure is that, if he is willing to compromise on his moral values and engages into unethical actions, it is not just detrimental to you but will be an unmitigated disaster for Malaysia.
Thank You for your vote

FAHAMILAH YANG TERSIRAT - KHAS UNTUK PARTI2 POLITIK DAN PENGUNDI2 GE13

Oh dengarlah tuan-tuan
Sebuah kisah suami isteri
Kadangkala terdapat
Si isteri memerintah suami


Saya kata: Sebuah Negara harus dipimpin oleh seorang yang “layak” bergelar pemimpin dari semua segi. Jangan biarkan “Si Isteri atau Isteri-Isteri” bermaharajalela…Ramai yang dah naik tocang

Oh disuruh duduk-duduk
Dijerit-jerit dibentak-bentak
Suaminya dulu hensem
Rambut panjang dah jadi botak


Saya kata: Malaysia adalah sebuah Negara yang aman dan damai..Namun tuduhan dan provokasi yang melampau boleh menggambarkan sebaliknya

Oh la la
Kalau memilih isteri alah abang
Biar betul-betul
Jangan tersalah pilih alah abang
Kena queen control


Saya kata: Pilihlah pemimpin yang betul..Queen control takpe jangan tak boleh kontrol

Oh la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
Kisah rumahlah tangga
Ada-ada saja


Oh kadang pula terdapat
Suami jahat isteri budiman
Isterinya cukup sabar
Perangai suami ya Allah macam setan

Kalau di belakang isteri
Hai joli sana joli sini
Kalau di depan isteri
Amboi pijak semut pun tak mati


Saya kata: Setan berwajahkan pemimpin sekarang banyak. Ada yang boleh dikenalpasti. Ada yang tidak boleh dikenal pasti. Ada yang telah dikenalpasti berkati-kati. Yang pasti they said “IT LOOKS LIKE ME, SOUNDS LIKE ME BUT NOT MY TUMMY.

RUKUN WAJIB PEMBANGANG



Membangang itu satu rukun WAJIB
tak kira tempat tak kira waktu
mati pejuang takkan membantu
Kerana Pembangang LAHANAT memang bermata satu

Tanya ibu si pejuang “Kenapa mereka perlu begitu?”
Rukun WAJIB kedua ikutan Pembangang berjiwa kayu.
makin lusuh kerana jiwanya dengan Jin berpuaka di SULU
Suruh pergi Tak Mahu-mahu
Kasih mati baru tau..

Benar kata pantun orang tua MENSIA
Kapal Layar Jangan Dipeluk Kalau Dipeluk patah layarnya
Orang Dara jangan dipeluk Kalau dipeluk hilang daranya
Orang Bangang Jangan diketuk Kalau diketuk hilang akalnya
Rukun WAJIB mereka yang ketiga barangkali!

Next Rukun Please..
Rukun terakhir Pembangang ada disini
Terima Kasih Tak akan diberi
Waima mati dihina lagi
Daun Keladi berkati kati
Aku terima kerna Engkau Bagi
Takkah bangang Penerima tu tadi!!!

Time to Move On




“Sometimes the hardest thing in life is to know which bridge to cross and which to burn.”(The international)- 
As you know, the decision needs to be made although it is not easy.
Frankly, I have No regrets at all in burning the bridges.
I've done it before.
Sometimes I did it unconsciously and at other times I did it consciously.
That’s something I will live with for the rest of my life.
I don't care what others think about me.
It is ironic some quarters of people have no qualms about judging me but don’t like being judged themselves.
However difficult the situation is, I’m happy to move on.
For info, my priority list in 2012 is fairly simple: My Wife, Azim & Aish.
My wife may thinks otherwise.
Am I being an insensitive self-centered person by revealing the list?
“Oh, Tell me about it.”
It is simply not fair to put others after all the things we went through together.
Don’t forget to look into the mirror if you wish to criticize the said list.
Because it is so often that we don’t practice what we preach.
Therefore, Shut your @#$k*^$ #@(^%. I shall end my rant here.
