Daily Lessons from Life 17-18 March 2014 - Various

MH370 Updates - Day 11 now and still no closer to finding the plane nor understanding what exactly happened except with a very depressing investigative angle of 'possible pilots' suicide' and that ridiculous and shameless link to opposition political party of Malaysia!! Still, I hope while those who are religious pray.

Notes: Was too tired to blog last night so here is the catch up on 17 and 18 March 2014 with out commenting specifically on any news headlines:

1. Local actress Pan Lingling fighting off breast cancer

The fortunate thing about this is that she fought off the cancer and the cancer is in remission after the appropriate treatment.

May she be another example to cancer patients that early detection helped save lives. And cancer can be cured. It is not always a 'no hope' situation.

2. Bangkok Lock-down no more!

Looks like the lock-down is over. At least for now. This, with mixed feelings, must be something good even those 'die-hard' protectors. Life has to go on. Corrupt government has to be fought on another front. Voters who are able to REALLY use their vote wisely without being bought by the 'pork barrel' politics! Will this happen? It will but not without a lot of uphill charges by the many committed democratic voters who will, and must be the first to sacrifice, to touch and pull the uncommitted voters in!

3. Crimea is an independent state now

Interesting situation. The first step of a 2-step process by Putin to have Criema legitimately 'return' to Russia! I joked that the people in this referendum were given a world class push-button system to vote. No matter how hard they push the button, the outcome will always be the same old, pre-determined: "Yes. Crimea to be independent and then be part of Russia.'!

4. lastly, another burning vehicle on Singapore's road. This time a mini-bus. It is puzzling and it is scary for me. I hope the authority and the manufacturers and the users do not have to wait for one with burned victims, even dead ones, before alerting EVERYONE on how to spot the early signs and what to do quickly and safely when one's vehicle catches fire!

Goodnight!
