At around 12:30am on Tuesday, April 22nd 2008, I heard what sounded like a jet fighter flying just over my apartment. At first I didn’t make much of it but the sound lasted more than five minutes. I went outside and tried to find where the noise was coming from.

I found where the noise was coming from. A jet of gas is shooting up to the sky somewhere along a Petronas gas pipeline which is supplying to Singapore. The location of the leak is just before the Permas Jaya bridge (on the Permas Jaya side, near the Shell petrol station). I managed to shoot a video of the incident and uploaded it to YouTube.

I’ve always been an admirer of Datuk Shahrir Samad. I believe he epitomizes the die hard spirit of Johoreans. He’s been through so many negative experiences but time and time again he rises from the ashes. He’ll always be a phoenix in my book.

Due to my utmost respect for Datuk Shahrir (who also happens to be my MP - Johor Bahru), I am very pleased to have learned that he’s now Malaysia’s new Minister of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (KPDNHEP).

If you’re Malaysian and of voting age, chances are you’d be bombarded for the past two weeks or so with advertisements, banners, buntings, speeches and probably even by visits from politicians that you haven’t seen for the past five years.

Unless you’ve been living in a cave in the middle of nowhere, you’d surely know that this is a typical prelude to an upcoming election. Are you ready to play your role in this process?

As I was cracking my head with yet another Crystal Reports formula, a colleague from the neighbouring department stormed into my office. She’s shouting something about earthquakes and evacuation.

Less than 24 hours after denying that parliament will be dissolved today, he did exactly just that just a few minutes from the time of this post. However, this is no surprise since there was a lot of speculation that today would be the day anyway. Abdullah Ahmad Badawi added that the official date for polling day would be announced tomorrow.

I don’t really care when the election date would be. The only thing that’s on my mind is that I have to perform my duty as a Malaysian and go out to vote on that day. Are you a registered voter?

UPDATE: Polling day is 8 March 2008.
