The Last Of The La Salle Brothers

I was a La Sallian from Standard 1 till i finished school in form 5, that was 11 years of being a La Sallian! I take a lot of pride in being a part of this institution which is regarded as one of the best around the world. I remember while i was back in school at La Salle in PJ it was almost the end of the La Salle brotherhood before the local’s toke over the reigns in leading the school.

While the brother’s were in charge, the school was known for its high discipline and no nonsense approach which changed dramatically as every brother that lead the school came from one mind set and after them, it was constant struggle to keep up to the high standards the brothers set in.

Naturally when you don’t come from a single system, a change of leadership would result in a change of style and hence in my view the quality dropped to a certain extend.

The La Salle brothers not only had schools that went by the name of La Salle which i was from but also many others like St Johns & St Xavier’s who just had the last brother who was in the reign retiring. Its definitely going to be different now and its going to be truly missed.

Brother Paul Ho’s retirement will be a double milestone as he represents the last Brother principal in Malaysia.

Congratulations to the La Salle brothers for the superb job they have been doing all these years and there are many community leaders and prolific figures that this very system has churned out. I’m surely blessed and happy that i was part of this very system.

Pasar Road

If you are from KL, Pasar road has got the reputation of being a electronic heaven for the not so rich! Its a street filled with shops selling all sorts of electronic items at cheap cheap prices. Danny and I decided to go to pasar road because i was looking for a small knife and a torch for my upcoming trip to the forest.

When we got there as usual the whole area was packed with stalls everywhere. This area is infamous for its walkway stalls who sell from batteries to mobile phone accessories to binoculars to Viagra to ecstasy to even dildos! [Read more...]

Orangutan Prostitute

Yes! Its been happening, some sick bastards have been using Orangutan’s as prostitute’s! How? Apparently even dressing the animal up like a female and the customers come to get some. This is so sick, i can imagine how sad these people are! They the customers know its a orang utan and they are there for just that!

The report :

Meet Pony. She is an orangutan from a small village in Borneo, where they cut down the rain forest to render the palm oil that gets sold abroad and made into lip salve, ice cream, chocolates, and cheese crackers.

ice: So tell us about Pony.

Michelle Desilets [Director of the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation]: Pony is an orangutan from a prostitute village in Borneo. We found her chained to a wall, lying on a mattress. She had been shaved all over her body.

I want to cry.

If a man walked near her, she would turn herself around, present herself, and start gyrating and going through the motions. She was being used as a sex slave. She was probably about six or seven years old when we rescued her, but she had been held captive by a madam for a long time. The madam refused to give up the animal because everyone loved Pony and she was a big part of their income. They also thought Pony was lucky, as she would pick winning lottery numbers.

Did the clients realize that they were in fact getting an orangutan?

Oh yeah, they would come in especially for it. You could choose a human if you preferred, but it was a novelty for many of the men to have sex with an orangutan. They shaved her every other day, which meant that her skin had all these pimples and was very irritated. The mosquitoes would get to her very badly and the bites would become septic and be very infected, as she would scratch them constantly. They would put rings and necklaces on her. She was absolutely hideous to look at.

How did you get her away from there?

It took us over a year to rescue her, because every time we went in with forest police and local officers we would be overpowered by the villagers, who simply would not give her up. They would threaten us with guns and knives with poison on them. In the end it took 35 policemen armed with AK-47s and other weaponry going in there and demanding that they hand over Pony. It was filmed by a local television crew and in the background of the film when we are unchaining Pony you can hear the madam crying hysterically, screaming, “They are taking my baby, you can’t do this!” There is no law enforcement in Indonesia so these people didn’t face any sentence or anything for what they had done.

D’Image Optical

How many times have you been into a shop to buy something and had lousy service that pisses you off soo much you just cant let them get away with it?? This is my episode of that very experience.

My better half needed to get her a pair of glasses because its been 3 years since she checked her eye’s and replaced her “out of fashion” spectacles.We went to many different shops but she didn’t find anything that she liked. Then in our hunt we ended up at Pj state and saw D’image optical shop.This shop belongs to Poh King Jewellers who bought over a different optical shop,re-branded it and are operating under the D’Image brand.
