RC Structure completed



It has been a week since I last reported on the progress on site. The RC structure has been completed and my workers have started to install the floor joist. The 1st. Floor joist are of 2' x 4"kelat timber fixed in 2'0" x 2' 0" grid while the 2nd Floor up to the roof will be 2" x 4" red meranti with grooves fixed in 2' 0" x 2' 0" grid.



The by-election fever is over. At last PAS won the by-election. The new MP for Kuala Terengganu is my former classmate in Sultan Sulaiman Secondary School, Kuala Terengganu. Though he may be from the opposing camp, we are still friends. Congratulations to YB Hj. Mohd Abdul Wahid Endut for being elected as a MP and hope you do your job well. BN lost because the political tsunami has still not lost its momentum.

I don't think its the wrong choice of candidate as claimed by Tun Mahathir that cause the defeat. The well-oiled machinery of PR lead by Tian Chua and company in campaigning for the PAS candiadate contributes to BN's defeat. Lack of commitment on the part of UMNO campaigners is also one of the reasons for the defeat. To quote Zubaidah Abu Baker of the NST, "Tens of thousands of UMNO members were in the Terengganu state capital but many, including party leaders were mere political tourists. There were campaigners who toiled and sweated but they were outnumbered two to one by those who went binge shopping on Terengganu songket and batik and spent hours at hotel cofee houses discussing the impending UMNO election. Large groups also spent their time trailing Abdullah, Najib and other party leaders when their opponents were out in the field bringing in votes".

One thing that surprises me is how PR got so much money for the campaign. Some of the campaign materials outdo the BN while others are at par but never less. If this is BN I can believe that they have money because as claimed by PR they are corrupt. But this is not BN, it is PR. Where does their campaign money come from?. I hope readers can guess the answer.

As for the PAS victory, so long as PAS or PR is swiftlets friendly, never mind they win mah! Their campaign expenses must be from BN (Bird Nests) tycoons lah, he,he,he!
