... ANOTHER MEAT FROM AN ANIMAL CREATED BY ALLAH?

K Devi, it is without doubt you have done very well to pick up 10A1s and the PSD cannot deny you a scholarship. However is it right for you to insist on an overseas scholarship so that your world does not collapse and your dream to study medicine realized? Come on get real. The world does not owe anyone a living regardless of race, color, creed or status.

K. Kamine Devi was shocked that the Public Services Department (PSD) had turned down her application to study medicine overseas despite her having scored 10A1s in last year's SPM.
This after the PSD had issued a statement recently guaranteeing scholarships for students who scored 9As in their SPM.
What was worse was that her application for a matriculation programme was also rejected.
Kamine, 17, said she had her heart set on becoming a doctor and even participated in an attachment programme in April that exposed her to a doctor’s job.
“I couldn't believe my eyes when I found out on Sunday through the PSD website that my application was unsuccessful,” she said yesterday, adding that she checked the result of her application several times.
“I felt that my world collapsed that day,” said the former student of SMK Ahmad Boestamam in Sitiawan, about 90km from here.
Kamine said her quality control father who earns RM3,600 a month could not afford to send her overseas to pursue Medicine.
“I just want to become a doctor so I can serve the country,” said Kamine, who was also active in her school co-curricular activities

The Warong kopi like all non-Muslims respect the religious sensitivities of Muslims and we expect that our sensitivities to be reciprocated. Do not insult what we eat, for is not pork just another meat from an animal created by Allah? Shame on you for demeaning what Allah has created.

The maiden debate of Khairy Jamaluddin (BN-Rembau), the son-in-law of the prime minister, on the motion of thanks for the royal address in Parliament today, turned into a name-calling affair.
Khairy riled the Opposition MPs when he gave a new definition to the acronym PKR (Parti Keadilan Rakyat). He called it Projek Khinzir Raksasa (monstrous pig-farming project) -- an apparent reference to the Selangor government's approval of the pig-farming project in Sepang.. Not to be outdone, Mahfuz Omar (PAS-Pokok Sena) defined the project as Projek Babi Negara (national pig project) -- a reference to BN.
