zouk abuse

interesting read..

I'm not even sure where zouk is but I think I've drove by the place once when I got lost (yes, I do get lost sometimes) around jln ampang/ klcc area..

But to me really, what do you expect from thugs hired by clubs as bouncers. They are thugs hired for their agressiveness and their lack of thinking ability.

What? you expect club management to conduct IQ - EQ tests when hiring bouncers? A security company manager once told me that how he interviews bodyguards-to-be's was to ask 2 candidates beat up each other. The one with less black and blue gets the job. You depends on their brutality and sadly but surely brutality does not come with much inteligence.

I feel sorry for the couple that was beaten up in zouk for nothing.. I hope they get their justice served and those people responsible brought to court. Bouncers or not, nobody should be beaten up and the thug getting away with it just because they are hired hands..

For the record, I'm not into clubbing, last club I went to was Hard Rock Cafe for dinner, we quickly left before it turn into a discotheque for the rest of the night.

bodohkah kita?

I read this piece on john labu's blog and immediately felt disgusted. Worst thing about this whole thing is that we seems to be too lenient to criminals. Needless to say that a lot the times criminals in this country, from the lowly snatch thieves to hardcore geng mamak, has been in out of jail. It's like a resort for them. Heck free meals and a place to sleep on tax-payer's dime.

We're stupid to think that these people can somehow repent after 45th time done in jail. I'm all out for 3-strikes rules like the one in US. 3rd jail time you get should be for life. Don't wait for the criminal to graduate to murder before putting him out for good. Prevent now! Not react later!

Same goes for drug junkies.. 3rd visit to the rehabilitation center should be the last one. If it's up to me I'd give them 2 syringes .. 1 with enough drug to OD them to death and the other one cyanide. It's death either way you go.

halal? I hope so

I've always wondered if those turkeys being sold in carrefour are acually halal to eat. I'm sure most of you guys out there may have also seen and wondered.. There's a picture that we took of the halal certification sticker on the frozen bird.


So I checked out the producer's offical website and found that they claimed that they do produce halal frozen poultry. The halal logo on the tag was a little different though.. see below..


Hmmm.... maybe new halal logo? who are these Halal Food Council S.E.A anyway? so I did a check on google and found that the same party was mentioned as a Halal certifier in this web document on Jabatan Perkhidmatan Haiwan Malaysia and also this document on USDA (US Dept of Agricultural) Foreign Agricultural Services. Here's a htmlized version thanks to google. Seems from the document that as of Nov last year (2004) JAKIM has 3 recognized Halal Certifier in the US and one of them is the Halal Food Council S.E.A. Interesting..

I've sent the picture and related URL to JAKIM and awaits their answer. Will post here once I get any reply from JAKIM. Meanwhile munchkins is looking forward to browsing for some roasted turkey recipes.
