The best car safety device is a rear-view mirror with a cop in it.

Why you all so jealous aa? He fought for the oil royalty and only a few percent have been spent for this German car. The reasons behind this spending are very concrete maa... according to Sunday Star;

He said the German cars were bought for the safety of the state officials who had to travel extensively and to reduce the cost of maintenance.“After much evaluation, the state felt the Mercedes-Benz cars are more reliable for long term use. It was also time to replace the Proton Perdanas,” he added.

Research, anyone?

Sometimes when you sacrifice something precious, you're not really losing it. You're just passing it on to someone else - Mitch Albom The Five People You Meet in Heaven.

I'm wondering how to train my heart and soul to be more sincere and honest in doing my research. Academic wise, the research in political sciences require the researcher to be apolitical and the main purpose is for the betterment of the society. However, with the current scenario of political development, the recommendations made by the political scientists seem to be too ideal and utopia. You can't do it just to fulfill the requirement of the university or to make you cv looks good but you have to pay it forward to the society. Any research which ends in the library is wasting the taxpayers money. Beware, mind your research.
