I see En. Othman , with brains like mine they are just too smart
for you. Therefore you support the gov't to send whatever craps
overseas hoping that their brains may be 'transformed'. No use En. Othman
you can't teach a BULL how to think !! ( I rfrain  from using a nuclear
weapon. )
Secondly, did I say they are craps in the 1st place ?? Have I not
qualified that they are the opinions of many netters ? I wish I culd
have used it in the 1st place to save the netters from email me !!
How come the Malays do not complain ? What a joke . Now it becomes
evident what sort of brains you have. What is there to complain
when the ones not sent like you are even greater crAps ?? Don't
make me laugh En. Othman .!

Ah ha En. Othman, you have not turned over anew leaf after all ! See 
what I mean you can teach a BULL ? I won,t call you fool. It only take
a greater fool to call someone fool. For that matter a muslim may get
his tongue cut off if he calls someone fool. You are lucky to be in
Singapore. :) :) ! But think of this what if someone calls you
OTAKBABI instead of OTHMAN B.A.  ??  :) :) :) :) :) .

Now did I ever assum only Chinese pay tax ? I said everyone pays
tax. But how come only .01%  or so gov't scholarships are allocated
(I don't know whether that is the right word. Should be given to
those who beg ?) to the non-bumi ?? 
Talkindg about where the Chinese get there business from etc. etc. ,
that got to be the ultimate joke !! But with a brain like yours 
I bear not hatre !! Who doesn't know that any company set up
by non-bumi after all the seat & labour will have to throw
away 30% to who ?? & not only that they have to pay the
name only directors' fees ?? & how many of these businessman have 
migrated ?

Cool down En. Othman. Did the constitution says .01 % of the scholarships
will be offered to non-bumis ? Secondly in the 1st instance I didn't
even question that small % . I JUST WANT TO BRING TO THE
ATTENTION OF ALL THAT ACCUSING THE NON-BUMIS THE REASON WHY SO 
FEW OF THEM GOT SCHOLARSHIPS IS BECAUSE THEY DID READ PAPERS, 
OR TRY HARD ENOUGH IS TOO FAR FETCHED ! YOU CHOSE TO DIGRESS,
YOU CHOSE TO SAY (see below what En. Othman wrote) THAT I RECOMMEND
MALAYS ROT IN HELL , LAZY ETC. ETC. ETC. WHAT CAN I SAY ?? 
You chose to bring in racial sentiments what can I do ?? Perhaps this
is a result of your inferiority complex ??

I choose not to digress that far En. Othman. You sound more like 
one of those being INDOCTRINATED self pity, self righteous,
sensitive crying babies !!  I rest my case here ! I have at least
voice for the innocent tens of thousands who have not only being
totally deprived of the rights & freedom , but an eccentric like
you has even pointed fingures & accuse them. Their innocent at
least is now brought to light. Infact I have been siily enough
to be draged by you 'crying baby' to digress . You hope to draw 
the sympathy of ... huh ??     What mentality . Further 
'confrontation ' with this crying baby will not benefit anyone !
After all can a fool bring any message across to a greater fool ?
