Worst Bus Accident Ever

Posted on the December 20th, 2010 under News by

The whole country was shocked by the latest accident involving a bus. This is the worst accident ever as 28 people were killed, as reported in the news on TV tonight. the cause of the accident is still unknown at the moment but the usual suspects are speeding and mechanical failures.

Here are some quotes  from the local newspapers:

“The impact of the crash was so severe that bodies were flung several metres away from the wreckage while others were trapped deep in the mangled vehicle.” – The Star Online – 27 killed as tour bus overturns in Cameron Highlands (Update 5)

“In the 11.40am incident, about 15km from here, the bus which was carrying 37 people onboard and was coming down from Cameron Highlands, breached a concrete divider, somersaulted and crashed roofside into the rocky slope before halting on its side in a monsoon drain at the foot of the slope. – NST Online – 27 dead in Malaysia’s worst road accident (updated)

“Kemalangan bas di Jalan Cameron Highlands-Simpang Pulai, hari ini yang meragut 28 nyawa adalah yang paling dahsyat dalam sejarah negara.” – Berita Harian Online – Nahas bas terburuk negara

The news also appeared on BBC Online – Tourists killed in Malaysia crash. Many people are questioning why a double-decker bus was used to go up and down of the hilly Cameron Highland. Even on the flat highway, the stability of a double-decker bus is questionable.

We once took a ride on a double-decker bus from Shah Alam to Kota Bahru and that was  our first and  last long distance bus trip. It was not an enjoyable ride at all and at certain point it was kinda scary… Even when we drive on the highway these day, we can easily spot speeding buses…

They just don’t care…

Updated on December 22, 2010 – Only 27 deaths and not 28 as reported earlier.

Argentina escapes with a slim win over Nigeria

The only goal by Heinze

Just finished watching the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa live telecast of the match between Argentina and Nigeria. Ended up with Argentina beating Nigeria with only a goal. Argentina 1 – Nigeria o.

In my opinion the game deserved a draw… Argentina’s fans surely hate that remark…

And Messi… Well, he was a mess… LOL!

I think Maradona had lost more calories than Messi just now…

On the other hand, Enyeama, the Nigerian goalkeeper was superb! Messi could not beat him.

Attacked, Shocked and Nuffnang

I was shocked to read about the attack by Israeli’s forces on the Turkish ship Mavi Marmara that was leading a convoy of six aid ships to blockaded Gaza. It was reported that at least 10 people were killed and many others injured. The fate of two Malaysians on-board, journalist Ashwad Ismail and cameraman Shamsul Kamal Latip from Astro Awani, was unknown until now.

Picture showing Israeli soldiers aiming a gun on the deck of a Turkish ship, part of an aid convoy heading to the Gaza Strip, after Israeli soldiers boarded the vessel in international waters off the Gaza coast.

So where is the UN? Where is the US, the so called champion of the free world? Is it because that there was no American on board, it doesn’t really matter? As usual, Israel gets away with everything and nobody on Earth can do anything apart from protesting on the streets and the braver ones, throwing stones at some Israeli’s tanks…

Picture from The Star Online and more news at No word on fate of Malaysians onboard attacked ship (Updated).

Then I was shocked to read about a 2 year old toddler in Indonesia who smokes up to 40 cigarettes a day! Wow! That boy shot to fame instantly. I think some of his videos on YouTube has been removed but I managed to find one video at Break.com here: http://www.break.com/index/two-year-old-toddler-smokes-cigarettes.html

When you watch the video, you would be amazed that he smokes like a pro! According to the news, the parents could not do anything as he would throw a tantrum if he doesn’t get his smoke. Talk about addiction at a shocking level…

According to the Chairman of the National Commission for Child Protection in Indonesia, Seto Mulyadi , “Smoking has been a part of our culture for so long it isn’t perceived as being hazardous, as causing illness, as poisonous.” “A lot of adults who are around children will smoke. They will carry a baby in one hand and a cigarette in another. Even mothers don’t understand that they are poisoning their children.”

True enough!  That’s the main reason that we stopped taking ferry from Port Klang to Dumai and choose to go via Melaka instead… I wonder what will happen to Aldi next… Smokers out there, what say you?

Read Smoking toddler causes Internet outrage: Two-year-old smokes 40 cigarettes a day (video) for details and another video.

Well, enough of shocking stuffs… To lessen the shocking impact, let me change to a happier topic. I just remembered that I have not banked in the check from Nuffnang received in March 2010. It was for my second cash out this year. Another cash out is expected this month and with that, I have already paid for my hosting… Thanks Nuffnang!

What can I buy with that amount? Definitely cigarette would not be in my list… I can use that for one week of petrol or one week of toll to go to work… Or buy a new mouse to replace the one that I just bought tonight for RM12.90 at Tesco since I just realized that a cheap mouse is a retarded mouse… It could not move smoothly and that’s annoying. Nevertheless, it is still not shocking…

Till then, take care and have a nice life!
