Parliament House leak again??? WHAT AN EMBARRASSMENT!!!

Once again, another national embarrassment
That there was another leak in the Parliament
This time Datuk Seri Nazri Abdul Aziz said the building is old and has "old" system
Whereby it was not suppose to be aircond, hence they need to make adjustments

Subsequently he "refer" this problem to PWD (Public Works Department)
He would expect them to make a statement
We can probably expect PWD to say the downpour was way beyond imagination
That no amount of engineering and maintenance can prevent this situation

The Empire Building of New York was built during the time of Great Depression
That building still standing today without the Mayor saying that the building has problems
Since 9/11, the building has become the symbol and pride of Americans
Mind you, they are also constantly expose to severe weather conditions

Coming back to Kuala Lumpur, our parliament building was build after independence
It was hardly 50 years since the building was officially open
Now we have complaints after complaints on a regular basis about this monument
Lets hope Datuk Seri Minister will work this equation

Its time to do away with finger pointing as it's not part of the solution
By blaming others, it will only make himself look bad as if he is a hopeless person
Blaming others will also make them upset and he will get less cooperation
Its time to put our national symbol and pride back into action

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

The last Thursday of November will be here shortly
Its time to do some groceries
The most important is to get a fresh turkey
As that is the most important menu for this party

We can make some chicken casserole to add into the variety
Not to mention the great stuffing that is delicious and tasty
Of course, who can forgot mashed potato with gravy
Or baked potato with bacon and sour cream as part of the culinary

The meal does not end without pumpkin pie as it is also consider part of the specialty
Thanksgiving is a time to be with family
The time where we invite our neighbors and buddies
To enhance ties that keeps our solidarity

A time to start planning for a new journey
A time to start looking for opportunity
A time to forget our past misery
A time to lay our foundations to the road of glory
