[Current note: Gawd... what's up with this image? Was I really part of the free speech online campaign? Does it still exist I wonder?? However, the following paragraphs does suggest that I was somewhat paranoid when I started the site hmmmm..... FYI, I wrote this section in early 1997.]

WARNING!! The content that follows may offend some readers. This page contains my PERSONAL opinions and observations on various aspects of life. Please return to my other pages if you get easily offended.

I just KNOW that the following section is going to make a lot of people angry or upset but I am putting this up in the hope that it will make the world a better place. Maybe I am being naive or optimistic... I don't know. Perhaps it would do some good... perhaps it won't. Regardless, I would just like to remind everyone who reads this that this is my own personal opinion. I firmly believe in free speech and if I get into trouble for it, so be it. A person cannot go through life being scared of everything and everyone.

OK I have been in Australia for the past 7 years and I have to admit that coming back to Malaysia was hard and adjusting is a lot harder than I thought it would be. There are marked differences between Australia and Malaysia... listed below are a few thoughts on the differences, some maybe funny, some not... feel free to send me any comments but for those who want to abuse me, DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME. It WOULD NOT affect me and I will just ignore it. If this page upsets you, all I can say is don't read it. Legitimate views and opinions however will be taken into consideration.

The Differences Between A Developed (Australia) And An Undeveloped [or developing, which ever way you want to look at it] (Malaysia) Country

I will accept the fact that Malaysia is a developing country and it is not as bad as say a country like India or Africa. However, when compared to Australia, Malaysia is sadly very backward in some aspects. My observations can be classified into the following categories. Please note that I am going to be updating them as I come across anything that is worth noting. Oh yes, I am making a lot of points in the following pages and I intend to substantiate them with photos once I get my digital camera. However, it is taking me a fair while to save up for it seeing that I am unemployed so stay tuned.
