A true story back then at 1928, a single mother and her only son, child kidnapper and murderer, and a bunch of hypocrite policemen.
Was eyeing on this movie for quite some time till my boy got it for me from the net, eye-catching and stunning shock true story, that is still happening among us within every society. Just that people learn from mistakes, not to correct the morality of human kind, but to learn how to hide and cover their asses in a better way.
Son gone missing, was then replaced and persuaded by policemen that another kid is her son, main purpose is to shut her and the media up, turn out which the mother refused to. The moment she goes for the press conference, the 'back door' tactic is used on her to lock her up to mental institution saying that she can't even recognise her son.
Isn't this happening even now at 2011? After decades and decades of time and days, human kind has developed drastically to the extent that, better to cover the ass up than helping or standing firm on the truth. No? For instance, the previous Bersih 2.0 rally, media and newspaper twist and turn the story of it and a friend of mine from Johor was actually blaming the opposition for being bizzare. For instance, the movie 'The Cove' as revealed the dolphin killing season held every year in Japan and that Government is still trying to cover their fault till date.
Like Changeling, they can persuade the mother to accept another kid as her son, so can the Government makes us citizen believe that it's all the opposition's fault instead of the police force. So, we're now reverted back to 1920s. So can the Government provides you whale meat but it's high-in-mercury dolphin meat, even endanger your health. No?
A movie about human rights, about truth being twisted and lies being promoted to the face of everyone, about human's cruelty, about us killing us. I watched it with heart, filling every bits of the mother's weakness and strength.
Quote: "Why prostitution? We believe it starts from home." 每一家每一本经的念法都不同，与其怪罪于女人，为何不把事情的根本归根于男人的身上？ Bullshit. In cases like these, still women the one being blamed? Why not men? They consented it!
Quote: "We believe the core or main problem today in this world, social ills, is because it starts from the house, from home, if a man is unsatisfied and stress out, he will stray." 是吗？压力的根本是什么，至今的说法已经层出不穷了！是家吗？是思想，是偏见，是固执，是不开放。有压力就要妥善安排，有不满就要开怀畅谈。如果没人办得到，那每一个人就会找借口犯罪！ I doubt this. There're so many ways to define stress and you concluded all of them to one, H.O.M.E!? Stress is meant to be de-stress. If men as adult can't handle the stress but to blame home, is he still a M.A.N?
Quote: "Look at the world today, women are being treated as sex object right now." 错！是你把女人当做性工具了，不是世界！ Yea right, you can see yourself that way, BUT not ALL of us! We dislikes that description!
Quote: "Why can't they become the sex object to their husband?" 女人啊女人，难道你被别人视为一个性工具，你才满意吗？ I don't see being describe as an object is a pleasure to us women, DO YOU?
Quote: "It's legal, and it's permitted." 性爱是双方的！要是老公强奸老婆，那结婚证书就是逃罪的最有力证据了！ Having sex is having consents from both side. On the other hand, you just legalized rape by using the marriage certificate.
Quote: "A good woman is lousy in bed. We want to change that perception." 多不好，都不是你来断定，是她的丈夫！ Hell no you're saying this. How good a wife can be, always determine by the husband, not YOU!
Special credit to you Dr Rohaya Mohamad. If in any event you happen to share the "thousands of sex poses" in anywhere, share it big, share it far, share it wide. You're just so capable in doing EVERYTHING. God bless you.
Hmm.. Maybe some of you might not know of this, just to share some reviews on RPK's recent event held in London. It was on 22th May, one Saturday afternoon in BPP Law School.
Unfortunately, I was arranged in the rotas and can't get myself out earlier to the talk, it's a shame! Anyway I managed to find these clips, a very short talk of 30++ minutes, still try to dig out some Q&A parts (anyone who know of please drop by a link or two ;p).
Well a rough summary 'bout this, it's about the Human Rights in Malaysia (An Islamic country in Asia), zooming is the issue of freedom of speech and a right to fair trial. When you view this clip in YouTube, think there'll be some relevant links to Anwar Ibrahim's comment 'bout RPK too.
To me, RPK is kind of, making some points out, which I think they make sense, at least to me ;) This talk is all about his detention held by ISA throughout the years, the reasoning behind the scenes, the court hearings, and his getta way from sensitive issues! Despite the fact that it's just 30 minutes, I found it's rather interesting than the talk held by my lecturers for 2 hours! XD
Comment to this: Great one! Again, I'm not so over politics, just sometimes heard of some news and swayed off somehow, to me, he made the points out! Neither agree nor disagree. Last but not least, he's the M.A.N! :D
*I believe I did not made up any point to make a stand, just to declare that I did mean it when I say I DID NOT try to be a supportive party to anyone ;)
p/s: I share the same birth date as RPK! What a pride ;D!!!
I left Sabah when I was 19 to Selangor. Frankly, as a typical Tawau girl, I hardly get touch into politic news, besides TV1 2 and 3, the newspaper didn't stated much 'bout this. And so, here comes Peninsular, the HIGH profile politics fight between States comes into picture.
Forgive my naiveness on this kind of issue, after all I just roughly get part of the picture (well I believe most of the MPs don't really get the full picture as well, still...) What inspired me is that, when there's a need for you to stand up, don't. Why? After all, it'll just be an oral fight, no action will be taken, most issues will be ignored, you'll get discriminated, most probably prohibited, worst come to worst, a war? (Nah they're STILL not capable of that, thank God for this.)
I myself is a Chinese newspaper reader, simply because Chinese words, even with just 3 to 4 words, they SAY IT ALL! I'd been seeing MPs arguing - “你应道歉！” “我并没有错！” (which says, You should have apologized! Then a reply, I didn't do anything wrong!"
Yeap, so back to the point, why politics? Let's make thing real simple - When issues spotted, they'll be literally IGNORED. And then....... got dragged to some nonsense statement, which after all, FADE AWAY~ The transparency of debate lately is high, but people are still not minding their words and phrases. When you don't want to focus on the issues, never mind. When you try to ignore some shits, never mind. When you can't come to a solution or full stop, never mind. But please 'lah'... Don't attack! Being sexist, racist, discriminating, are nothing GOOD! AT ALL!
Well most will wonder why don't we stand up and fight for our rights? When you're in UK, "Boleh kawan! Tarak masalah!" But I'm sorry, you're in MY, stand up or not, it makes no difference, 'cause outcome will be the same, which is NOTHING. Staying in Sabah is really a paradise. Literally, you're a sea away from what's going on.
We ignore, for a better life. Fullstop!
One Malaysia - Does this unite all of us together? Your say :D
Note: Above it's just my personal point of view, no hardfeelings. Enjoy shopping in Malaysia, after all, I still heart Nasi Lemak and Roti Canai! Again, IGNORE is always a better way to live in. Adios!
