PQ4

Too many things are happening now. Politicians of all sides are now actively exposing things. Though only at the beginning, we are yet to see more. The favorite chess move opening has commenced.

Meantime …

The Elite are getting smarter than ever. Though they lost the 2/3 majority, still they have the power for many prerogative decision-making. Blogging then is getting even more relevant than ever.

You see, mass action these days can be very frustrating and I believe it will stay that way from now onwards. As said, the Elite are getting smarter and they have learnt ways to overcome problems given by mass actions. Oh yes, they have learnt a lot from HINDRAF, BERSIH, The Lawyers Walk and soon … The Fuel Price Hike Demo.

Why am I saying the Elite are getting smarter?

You see, though the demos launched effectively and were major facts behind the lost of the 2/3 majority, only minimal improvements are achieved. Obviously, the kind of improvements we keep seeing are actions taken to strengthening their own positions and groups. Mass actions then have never really reached the top heads.

So what am I personally going to do about this?

I have tried countless times to voice out my opinions to the Elite themselves as nowadays, they too blog. Unfortunately, my comments have never been published because the way I look at it, they hesitate to publish any negative comments against them. What even disgust me more is that, certain journalists and known writers back their postings up all the way.

Rather somehow, this kind of situation has never surprised me a bit. From the beginning of my blogging activities, I have already described both groups as brothers-in-arms.

I’ll be promoting citizen-journalism by participating more in blogging with those non-journalist and non-Elite. I foresee the future of citizen-journalism is getting brighter as society itself is getting individualistic. With citizen-journalism over journalism by journalists themselves, I do see the possible change where the mass in general can come to conclude any form of changes. Only when once the mass have the ability to conclude, the mass can become more independent. Once the mass can become more independent, the Elite can be directly be shaken. Of course too, journalism by the journalists can be irrelevant :-)

When the power stays in the hands of a limited group of privileged individuals (The Elite), most humans will remain secondary citizens. So it is time to change. Let everyone has some power.

Today … my second year of blogging … completed.

The Elitism Series: The Miners

Song and Music by Azer Mantessa
Vocals and Lyric by Azer Mantessa
Flash Animation by Azer Mantessa


We are ready when the sun shines
To the river, to the gold mine
Gold or silver, copper or lead
Treasure hidden in the earth bed

Working with our own hands
Blessed by the motherland
This is our story
This is our glory

This is our dear lives
The love for our wives
This is our story
This is our glory

So the miners work all out mining
Passionately with their every breath
Helping growing up the nation …

TDM – Terrific Deformed Megabridge

This entry is brought forward by Assholes United. Yes, we do have assholes :-)

We at Assholes United are so impressed by the design and explaination given by the ex-Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir aka TDM on his Crooked Bridge at his blog.

We feel so sorry for the cancelation :-)

As TDM had the ambition to also build a bridge that link Malaysia Peninsular and Sumatera across Strait of Malacca (you know … the busiest strait in the world with lotsa earthquake activities and not to mention the possibility of another tsunami), we think it is our obligation to dream of the bridge and picture above is our preliminary sketch.

The bridge will be named as TDM which stands for Terrfic Deformed Megabridge.

This bridge is designed to be more crooked and is estimated to be the most expensive man-made structure the world has ever seen. Malaysia Boleh! (Malaysia Can!).

Though we know the technology does exist to make the bridge as straight as possible but … ehem ehem … the more crooked it is, the more expensive it will cost and the more expensive … ehem ehem … the more we get paid *wink*

We believe Malaysians and Indonesians and the whole world don’t have to worry about the cost as it will be covered by … ehem ehem … toll paid by users.

As the bridge will require mega high cost for maintenance, don’t worry, we have also set up companies to be run by our sons and our next generations for the job.

We at Assholes United are also glad to inform on our next project which we believe to be the only wonder of the whole universe. It is also a bridge which will be named as MM.

No no no no no no … it does not stand for Mahathir Mohamed. It stands for Malacca to Moon.

Long Live Legacy!!!

So step aside you Puteri Gunung Ledang!!!

On You Tube

An old music video is posted at YouTube with a song titled Mere Sapano Kii Raani

It is an old Hindi Song adapted from the movie Aaradhana. As Azer sings, we at Asshole United cannot guarantee your ears won’t fall off. We too apologize for any wrong diction as we don’t understand a word of the song. We hope they meant well.


The Elitism Series: The Arrival

Flash Animation by Azer Mantessa

Animation

My 6–month probation period on Animation is nearly over now. I’ve learned many things. Sadly, I notice doing 3D animation requires very large memory. Until I can write better 3D script for Flash, 2D will have to do from now onwards.

Even for 2D, I have no choice but to rely mostly on drawings. ‘The Elitism Series’ will be my kind of animating style. I decided to create characters based on ‘Wayang Kulit’. I like morphing and tweening. Yet to improve more on Bone Animation as Frame-to-Frame can be very taxing and lousy. I love sceneries and I guess, pictures of women should be frequent. I like diversity of colours too.

Hope the animations synchronize and describe the songs well and vice versa.

To those who are interested in animation, I highly recommend Flash MX or better versions. Still, you need patient and passion.

I’ll make you pay
For throwing me away
You’ll be surprised
Paying the heavy price

You’ll be in my hand
I’ll take your precious land
So here I come
Things will get so undone

To the great kingdom we go …

Hello Mr. Banker
Are you ready for your destiny
In the land of plenty
Monopolize
With your phoney money

Hello Mr. Traitor
I am ready for my destiny
In the land of plenty
Monopolize
With my phoney money
