Unknowns and Potential

We live in 1 moment that exist between 2 opposite moments. The moment that we have left behind, is a moment that we can never recapture, no matter how many "Back to the Future" movies you watched. The moment that might be, which we will not know whether or not we will live to see.

And we live in the current moment. But what define this moment?


Some would say it is the now. Some would say it is the moment where we truly live. Some would say that it is the moment of existence. They might all be correct.

But to me, the current moment is defined by those two moments, the past and the future. The current moment exist as a nexus between the future and the past. The future is full of potential and possibilities while the past is in a sense is constant. Whether or not you believe time move in linear or in a loop, it doesn't matter, what have past cannot be undone.

So we live in a nexus, where we can only move forward as the future moment becomes the current moment and the current moment become the past moment that escapes us.

The future moment is full of unknowns, but most importantly it is full of potential. From small potential to great potential. And such, potential can become great momentum if it can be move and be seized. The most important thing is to manage the unknowns. And how do we do that?

My Ideal Cabinet and Ministreal Line Up

If I were PM, my Cabinet would be a bit different than the normal Malaysian ones.

The PM will not hold any other portfolio. There would not be an official Deputy PM. There would be a group of full Minister that would form the Cabinet that will be pick from Members of Parliament, which will consist of such portfolios; Internal Security, Foreign Affairs, Defence, Finance, Trade, Education and Health. So, seven in all, plus the PM that would be eight. Easily manageable.

In the event the PM resign or die in office, the Minister of Internal Security would automatically be elected as temporary PM, for not more than 48 hours, which after that period the Cabinet must submit a name of a Member of Parliament to be elected as PM.

For us to think about

Got this while blog surfing.

Hello Again!

It's been several month since I updated this blog. Because of time constrains and also access problems, I've been unable to put forth my thoughts in a clear frame of mind. A lot happens between then and now.

Plenty of changes with my life, my environments and the world in general. But the gist of things is that, life continues with or without you.

To my friends that I have not been in contact with, I am sorry. I really wish I have more time to hang out with you guys more.

Though I'm several months too late, let me wish all of you a good year and a good life. Here's a trivia question just for fun, "What's the connection between Kiribati and Mithra the god of the sun?"

A Time to Reflect!

It is time for this nation to stop and reflects on her current condition. We are at a crossroad, the world is at a crossroad. This is an opportunity for us to lead the way rather than to act re-actively.

On matters of unity, let us all concentrate on our shared past and experiences, look into our similarities and build on that. Let us go beyond race, skin colour, religion, language and build upon empathy, brotherhood/sisterhood, love, caring as the basis of our nation.

On matters of education, let us look for the best in our young and future generations, so that they'll lead this nation to greatness. We all are the same, our children are the same, we all share a hope and a destiny in this nation of ours.

On matters of economy, let us throw away the shackles of poverty not only that of capital, but also the poverty of thoughts. New skills and knowledge should be created and shared with everybody. Let new opportunities be created and shared equally with all.

We all share a common bond in this country of ours. We all share a common destiny. We all dream a common happiness.

Hail the President!

Obama won.
Will it be a change?
Will the American perceived hegemony be soften?
Will the economy rise in hope?
Will fairness and respect be the norm?
Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?
Will.i.am.
