I agree that political and social awareness through education needs to be ramped up in this country. I agree that the youth could use more exposure and literacy when it comes to these issues. Nothing would make a better tipping point for this to happen than for the government to immediately enforce the #UNDI18 law.
So Calibre magazine did a feature on me in their January 2021 issue. Nothing much... just a day in life of the great Zanster! Muahahaha!!
Come to think of it, the youth deserve to vote more than the old, no? I mean, they are going to live longer so they have more at stake to make sure the country turns out well. The older folks... it's just like 'Tick tock tick tock... anytime now'!! Hahaha!! #Undi18
And so #ChineseNewYear ends!! Stuck at home but thank god for family nearby and awesome neighbours... it turned out to be a great celebration! #KongHeiFattChoy #CNY #MCOCNY #TheBustAzleesCNY #TheBustAzlees #TheBustAzleeMafakas #FatBidinHQ
Sometimes, the very people we don't want to accept in our society turn out to be the ones who most genuinely are helping. #Refugees #Covid19 #MCO #PKP
Secret breakfast!
I wrote this for my column at Malaysiakini last week when the first #ChineseNewYear SOP was announced by the government. Now, they have announced a newer SOP. I want to believe my column played a part. But I am sure @drjasonleong’s tweet was what really did it! Hahaha!
OH EM GEE!! We finally binged on #KLGangsterUnderworld2!! But is it as good as the first season of #KLGangsterUnderworld? #KLGU2 #KLGU @wetvmalaysia @zahiriladzim @beto_kusyairy @amerul_affendi @azhan_rani
