A Lion On An Escalator
Have you seen a Lion riding up an escalator? Well I saw one, in the midst of going to the first floor in a shopping mall to bring luck to some shop owners. The Lion Dance.

TV Aerial
These are link houses. You can see the respective TV antenna's erected on the rooftops. Do you think owner A has the right to erect his TV antenna in such a manner it protudes out to Owner B's roof? Yes it's an empty space, still it doesn't look good from the outside with all TV antennas protuding towards Owner B's house/rooftop. Would the rest concur if Owner B were to do the same to his/her house?

Malaysia Decides
8 March 2008 was the election day. The Barisan Nasional will form the next Government as it has won more than half the parliamentary seats. However, the coalition suffered some of the greatest defeats in its history. While it managed to keep Terengganu and will form the next government, it lost Penang, Selangor Kedah and Perak to the Opposition and failed to recapture Kelantan. Right in front you see a car with a big sticker pasted at the back of the car of an opposition leader and also the former Deputy Prime Minister.

The Heat Is On
Politics, politics, election, votes, you name it, the heat is on - Malaysia's 12th General Election. Not exactly everybody's cup of tea, again we are expected (encouraged) to do our part to vote. More gossips, back stabbing among the opposition parties. I won't be photo-blogging about it as all of us know that talking politics is a `extremely sensitive issue'. Here is just a snap shot of the election spirit, funny I did't see that many banners up in town, just this resident who put up numerous flags representing our current party - Barisan Nasional in front of his house. A very patriotic person indeed. 8th of March 2008 is the polling date.

Waiting For Action
The Federal Reserve Unit FRU red trucks were nearby the temple. In the event if there was a riot, the team will take the necessary actions to disperse the crowd e.g hosing down the crowd, baton and protective shields. Click on this thumbnail for another image:

Typical Fight
As expected in any gathering be it political or religious, there is bound to be some sort of `fight'. Spotted this two men having a small disagreement which ended up physical during the Thaipusam 2008. Shortly the police intervened and all settled down.

Multi-Coloured
The Malaysia K9 Day 2008 was held today - 20 January 2008 at Central Park, Bandar Utama, Kuala Lumpur. It is an annual event dedicated to all dogs, be it a mixed breed dog or pure breed dog. I spotted this cute multi-coloured dog in the park. Looks like dogs are not even left out in terms of `grooming' and looking beautiful.
