If someone chooses alcohol, then that means they have an intention to commit murder. (Recent alcohol and drug-related accident in Malaysia) What do you think? It seems like Malaysia's legal stance asserts this at this time.

Honestly, my expectation for my leaders is very simple: "Asalkan boleh kerja, bolehlah."*

*As long as he knows how to work, he'll do."

We had a former PM once, whom we call "tukang PDF", who used to release PDF statements to avoid doing actual work. During the pandemic, he issued a PDF statement on Twitter saying he couldn't attend parliamentary sessions because he had diarrhea.

The Strait is her muse (inspiration or stimulation), and #Trump made it so.

#Malaysia says #Iran is allowing its vessels to pass through the #StraitOfHormuz toll-free.

#FotoVorschlag: Klar Schiff // Shipshape

Wenn das auch mal für die Strände gelten würde, nicht nur für die #Schiffe und #Boote. Aber dass alles mit Plastik zugemüllt ist, ist irgendwie ein Naturgesetz, dem man halt beikommt, indem man jeden Morgen mit Traktoren die Strände für die Touris glatt zieht. (Das war zumindest 2016 mein Eindruck, vielleicht ist das jetzt viel besser?) Der ganze Müll stammt natürlich nicht nur aus Malaysia, sondern wird vom #Meer an die Küsten geschwemmt.
Na ja, aber heute ist das Thema ja "Klar Schiff", da soll der #Strand auf dem Foto natürlich einigermaßen sauber aussehen.

If only the beaches were as shipshape as the #boats and #ships. But beaches strewn with plastic seem like some cruel law of nature that's "managed" by sending tractors to smooth them over at dawn for the tourists. (At least this was my impression in 2016. Maybe it's a lot better now?) Of course, not all the litter originates from Malaysia. Much of it washes ashore from the #ocean.
But today it's all about "shipshape", so this #beach, from this perspective, is mostly litter-free.

Also I asked my cousins why they never mentioned great grandpa, but always spoke about "a coh" which is the matriarch of the family. They look puzzled, as if the thought has never occured to them that they should ever mention him lol.

Peranakan families are matriachical, which meant the women rule the house, the men are just there to bring back the money 😆.

Historically, men from China married local women and sailed back to China for business, leaving them to manage the household for long periods, so I suppose that's why it evolved that way.
