How should we judge a government?

In Malaysia, if you don't watch television or read newspapers, you are uninformed; but if you do, you are misinformed!

"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X

Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain

Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham

"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan

Don't underestimate your luck

When Lady Luck looks for you, you could be in for bigger winnings.

I have been a keen observer of 4-D numbers and their connection with unusual events or mishaps. For those not into buying such lotteries, they would not have noticed even if it happened.

I realised that it happened many times to me and by relating stories, I always feel like a crazy punter. But I am not one. My sister used to have the ability to buy winning numbers very often, sometimes striking a few within one draw.

What happened recently was incredible in that had I thought my luck was above 4-D, I could have struck 6-D! If I bought 4-D instead it would not have been. It was a straightforward 'something happened, buy 6-D instead of 4-D'! Aim higher. This reminds me of a slogan from Bigsweep: 'Don't turn away a fortune' whenever someone approaches to sell you some tickets.

I used to say that if I can't get a free lottery ticket at a dinner table of 10 (1 out of 10), how could I strike 4-D, not to mention getting 7 digits right! But luck doesn't work like that.

Many people are into buying Jackpot numbers for this reason.

Note: Some people might be wondering how was it possible to choose 6 digits instead of 4. Well, the unusual incident involved a handphone dropped and an hour later found under the mudprints of the wheels of an excavator at work in an oil palm estate. It was slightly bent at a corner and not working. The 6 digits came straight from the last 6 of the 7 numbers. It was sent to a local repair shop and the sim card taken out to be used in an older phone. The repairman was given the same numbers to contact as to whether it is repairable.
