Pondering Psychology
If you start with a cage containing five monkeys and inside the cage, hang a banana
on a string from the top and then you place a set of stairs under the banana, before
long a monkey will go to the stairs and climb toward the banana.
As soon as he touches the stairs, you spray all the other monkeys with cold water.
After a while another monkey makes an attempt with same result ... all the other
monkeys are sprayed with cold water. Pretty soon when another monkey tries
to climb the stairs, the other monkeys will try to prevent it.
Now, put the cold water away.
Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it with a new one.
The new monkey sees the banana and attempts to climb the stairs.To his shock,
all of the other monkeys beat the crap out of him. After another attempt and attack,
he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs he will be assaulted.
Next, remove another of the original five monkeys, replacing it with a new one.
The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous newcomer takes part
in the punishment...... with enthusiasm, because he is now part of the "team".
Then, replace a third original monkey with a new one, followed by the fourth, then
the fifth. Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs he is attacked.
Now, the monkeys that are beating him up have no idea why they were not permitted to
climb the stairs. Neither do they know why they are participating in the beating of
the newest monkey.
Finally, having replaced all of the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys
will have ever been sprayed with cold water. Nevertheless, not one of the monkeys will
try to climb the stairway for the banana.
Why, you ask? Because in their minds...that is the way it has always been!
This, my friends, is how Parliament operates... and this is why, from time to time:
ALL of the monkeys need to be REPLACED AT THE SAME TIME.
What are you waiting for.... vote all the Monkeys out from parliament at the same time
in the next General Election or By-Election....................
Ha!Ha!

Show Me The Money!!!!
There Is Money In Garbage.
Caught with my HD Spycam, a garbage collector found a purse loaded with cash. I co-incidentally shot this video as a test and end up striking a rare shot. Well, technically, he did not steal the money but it came to him on top of his truck in a huge pile of garbage. He should, at least, find a way to return it. Honesty huh?
This lucky bloke sure got an extra duit Raya.
My gripe here is with MPK (Majlis Perbandaran Klang) or our town council, because of the way these contractors are doing their job unprofessionally and is a health hazard. Just look at the truck itself. Is this the proper way to do this? What happened to the enclosed trucks with hydraulic compactors and with liquid catchment traps? We pay our taxes too and I believe it covers proper garbage collection.
It is getting frustrating everyday to witness just how our government is losing touch with all that claims of success and promises so called 'delivered'!
As I blog this, I can even smell the foulness of the drippings and this could cause some health problems. You see, the children playground is nearby and kids, being a holiday season, would be walking over these rotting liquid.
Malaysia sure Boleh!!
