		<title>Ethics in academia</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For academicians, the need to publish in journals is a requirement for survival. It sometimes does not really matter how you do it, so long as your name appears on the list of the authorship. This mad frenzy for publications has led to some academicians fabricating their works, with probably only a fraction being exposed. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Public speaking</title>
		<description><![CDATA[How often do we sit in a lecture and listen to the speaker blowing his/her trumpet repeatedly? In what started as a purportedly genuine attempt at validating statements made, would quickly degenerate into an annoying pathetic display of a lack of insight and a classical case of over indulgence. Although it is important to educate [...]]]></description>

		<title>Teething?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Charlize is unwell again. Refusing anything through her mouth for a third day running. We are trying hard to get stuff into her. She does look less active today and that concerns me. She is teething but does it cause so much of feeding difficulties? We have been scouring the internet for answers but can&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>Birthday Bash</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As usual, a quiet day. To be passed without any pagaentry. Sitting idly awaiting my turn. Soon I hope, it will finally be ready . Nice to not have much on my mind but what to do next . Birthday was the only reason to stay away from all things monotonous .]]></description>

		<title>The country needs new managers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Civil service should no doubt be neutral. They should remain apolitical in their professional capacity. This does not mean that they cannot support or vote for the opposition. However, the civil service is often equated to the Barisan Nasional government. How many times have we seen government projects being labelled as &#8220;Projek Barisan Nasional&#8221; !

		<title>MMRV vaccine</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Having a child means keeping tabs of her vaccinations. When Charlize was due for her MMR vaccination at one year, we thought the decision would be simple. Then the doctor tells us, &#8220;do you want the MMR/MMRV &#8220;? These days everything comes in combinations, even our foods as well! Most would have thought that it [...]]]></description>

		<title>The baby that hates milk</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Charlize is now 13 months. She can throw a little bit of tantrum, especially when we need to feed her milk. She can surprisingly go a long time without milk. So, maybe she is teething and milk irritates her gums. She has less problems with water. She can crawl and grab objects quite well. She [...]]]></description>

		<title>BERSIH rally</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Public rallies should never be made the first choice in voicing our opinions, unless, the situation is so dire when the powers-that-be chooses to ignore pleas for a fair and just election. I find these days that every event is being turned into a racial or a religious issue at any opportunity. It is baffling [...]]]></description>

		<title>What utter rubbish!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently bloggers claimed that Christians in Malaysia are attempting to install a Christian Prime Minister in Malaysia. No doubt this caused a furore among the Muslim majority in Malaysia. There has been no evidence apart from a picture, which says nothing much except for a group of people coming together, and the blogger&#8217;s defiant insistence. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Holding us at ransom</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Vote us or lose representation in the government&#8221; This is the battle cry of MCA. Such a desperate call is evidence that MCA is aware that they are no longer the legitimate party representing the Chinese in Malaysia. Although they may currently be in the governing body by virtue of being a component party of [...]]]></description>
