		<description><![CDATA[Usually, I try to resist the temptation of taking a swipe at our politician talk or rather, mindset, which I think only God knows what are they thinking of.

		<title>RM1 million is nothing &#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, that&#8217;s what came out from the mouth of the Tourism Minister Ng Yen Yen.
That&#8217;s also the amount paid to former Ferrari Formula One team boss Jean Todt to spend over two years as Malaysia&#8217;s Tourism ambassador.
That&#8217;s also the amount that buys Yen Yen nothing in Europe.
That&#8217;s Malaysia.
That&#8217;s our money.
But well, that&#8217;s nothing.

		<title>This Lee Wei Kiat from MCA</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Let me go straight to the point.
What&#8217;s wrong with the MCA Information and Communication Bureau chairman Lee Wei Kiat?
This guy is everywhere, too busy menjaga tepi kain orang.
He said PR is facing conflicts and there isn&#8217;t any consensus between the leaders.
He said the call from PAS Youth to maintain the New Economic Policy (NEP) quota [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Awang Selamat dude</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s Awang Selamat again.
Yes, the one in Utusan Melayu and he did it again!
This time, he feels that Malay in this country is betrayed by the excessive demand from the non-Malay.
Too racist, he commented.
