Yup, that's how it looked yesterday after a few backbenchers slaughtered of animals at the august place. According to Malaysiakini, there was a mass slaughter on the Parliament grounds yesterday and several MPs saw red, both literally and figuratively, over the incident.
M.Kulasegaran (DAP Ipoh Barat) : I am objecting on two grounds. This is parliment. How can we allow the slaughter of animals in the compaund. SHould this not to be done in abattoir? Morever, this slaughter of cattle is sensitive ti Hindus. Surely you should have thought about this aspect before allowing it.
Speaker Tan Sri Ramli Ngah Talib : I don't see why there should be any objection on this. This is a norm whenever there is a kenduri. Therefore it is not an unusual practice.
Fong Po Kuan (DAP Batu Gajah) : This is an august place. We use this place for meetings. If next time, the Opposition wants to slaughter other animals then waht happens? Eventhough it is a norm by BBC, it doesn't mean it is correct, and should be continued.Non-muslim Mps are sensitive to religious beliefsof others that they were even carefull with thhe type of food they brought into the parlimrnt building.
Either, parliment or pasar, always stick to the Golden Rule : Do naught onto others...
But, the greatest failure of organized religion is its historical inability to convince their followers that the Ethic of Reciprocity applies to all humans, not merely to fellow believers. Every single religions in this world religions stress that their membership must use their ethic of reciprocity when dealing with persons of other religions, the other gender, other races, other sexual orientations, etc.
But, Looking at all the cruel things happening now and then around us, I know most of us wonder and ask back the same question..

End of last week was a blast for me. I was in PD for my team's away day. It was a two days and one night outing full of fun and excitement. Myself and some of my colleagues left from Cyberjaya on Saturday morning to PD. It was approximately an hour journey before we reach Eagle Ranch Resort at 9.45am. My Saturday started with some outdoor activities such as archery, go-kart and treasure hunt. Once everyone done with the outdoor excitements, we head to Legend water Chalets.
The fun continued with Beach Soccer and Volleyball until we had no more energy to be under the sun. After a short free and easy session, the team met up again for dinner. After the dinner, we continued our session with a few more indoor games. All the team members enjoyed those games and had a good laugh playing win, lose or draw and hum mali mali hum ;p. The indoor games session continued till midnight. After a good and a very comfortable night sleep, we left PD on the next day morning with lots of cool memories.
Here are some of the them..
One night, 4 MBA students were out partying till wee hours and didn’t prepare for the test which was scheduled for the following morning. The next day they hatched a plan - they made themselves look as dirty and dishevelled as they could, then approached the dean and told him they attended a wedding reception the previous night, and on their way back, the tyre of their car burst. So they had to push the car all the way back and that they were in no condition to sit for the test.
The dean thought for a minute, and then said to the students they can sit for the test after 3 days. On the 3rd day they appeared before the dean.
The dean announced that this was a special condition test - all 4 of them were required to sit for the test in separate classrooms. They all agreed as they had prepared well in the last 3 days.
The test consisted of 2 questions, with a total of 100 marks:
Q1. Your name ................. (2 marks)
Q2. Which tyre burst? ……. (98 marks)
a) Front left
b) Front right
c) Back left
d) Back right
Kudos to the Dean !!!
Moral of the story : Don't mess up with your lecturers ;p
