耶和华以勒 Yahweh Yireh

A truly wonderful music video recommended to me by dear Daniel Ho. “Sacrifice” by Bob Fitts. Thanks, Daniel!

Ever wondered how Abraham felt as he journeyed up the mountains to sacrifice Isaac? In parallel, the heart of the Father as He sacrificed His one and only Son. A timely reflection for us in this season of Lent.

Mas in disguise

5 03 2008

terrorist-disguise.jpgIn their greatest contribution to national security to date, Talkingcock.com has come up with a poster of the possible disguises that Mas Selamat Kastari can put on.

After all, it’s been a week since he has escaped. Isn’t it highly possible that he could have done more than just shaved off his moustache and beard? (that is, if he’s still in Singapore)





Should Wong Kan Seng resign?

2 03 2008

Regarding the recent escape of JI leader Mas Selamat Kastari, someone started an interesting poll in STOMP on “Who should resign over the terrorist escape issue?”. At the time of this blog entry, the results are as follows:

Chief Of Police: 14.39%
Wong Kan Seng (Minister Of Home Affairs) : 16.55%
Both should resign: 69.06%

If combined together, Wong Kan Seng scores an overwhelming 85.61%! (now, THAT is what we call a strong mandate, not 66.6%)

Hurry over and cast your vote now!

Update (2 Mar 2008): Boo boo! The poll has just been removed from STOMP (the above link now points to an invalid thread). I agree as mr brown muses: “We are not like those free-wheeling and chaotic governments from Western democracies that make their leaders accountable for every little thing.”

Update (10 Mar 2008): Ah, found another similar poll that’s active: http://www.luckypolls.com/index.php?act=08&id=10013
