Singapore vs Malaysia

Its quite normal for us Malaysians to envy Singaporeans.

We are envious of their sing dollars because its twice the value of ours.
We are envious of their economy because they are surging forward while ours is chugging along like an old choo choo train low on coal and fire. (sometimes we go backwards, what I term pecutan negatif, while going uphill)
We envy their religious freedom and their focus on the economy instead of religion and its unnecessary forced enforcement.
We also envy their super efficient public transport and their well maintained roads.
W envy their Miliary and their Navy which are one of best in the World.
We wonder why our National Service is crap(we lurve the marching of course!We Malaysians LURVE to march!) while theirs is actually doing something to teach the young about well, National Service.
And my oh my do we envy their National Carrier SIA and their beauties who serve it.
And we can only wish that we in Malaysia were not busy segregating each other according to our race and having one race being put on a pedestal while the rest being told to do it "my way or the highway" and be more like Singapore in terms of just working together as a Nation and making them so important in the world that their small island is on the world map while we are not quite there yet.

However, I sure as hell will not envy their recent rule on single mothers. Apparently, if you are a single mother you cannot apply for maternity leave. (or something along the lines of your leave is shorter than married mothers). However, in the name of change and progress, they have laxed the rules a little. Single mothers can now apply for maternity leave only if you marry the father within three months of the application.

Ok, like WTF?

Why must the mother marry the father? There are reasons why some of them are single mothers. Firstly there are bastardly men who believe in wham bam thank you ma'am. And then there are those who choose to be single mothers because hey, who needs a man? And well, there are some who accidently become a mother. Anyway, whatever the reason, they are single mothers and why are they discriminated? What could possibly be the reason behind this policy? To avoid young women indulging in free sex or something? Or to avoid young men roaming the streets and indulging in their need to go forth and procreate?

What?
I dont get it. Does anybody?

If I remember correctly, oral sex is prohibited in Singapore too. In private or in public. (ok, in public its just gross PDA) .Sex(between two consenting human beings) is an issue which I believe is private. And unless these couples are doing it in Taman Tasik Titiwangsa (as shown on NTV Edisi Siasat) or in a Shah Alam lakeside place(as plastered all over the Internet), the Government shouldnt be regulating it. Come on, must you regulate everything?
FYI, they recently allowed Cosmopolitan mags to be available on the newstands and Sex and the City finally allowed to be aired (after its been taken OFF the air).

So we Malaysians are not that bad. At least we only have overzealous religious officers who barge into a gwailo couple's apartment and demand to have a look at their marriage certificate lest they be charged with khalwat(for Gods sakes, what are the chances of gwailos being Muslims?)

Ok, I lied. Its just as bad.
Ok, I lied again. Its worse because now gwailos have been writing these things on the internet to warn their fellow people to beware the overzealous religious Malaysians and their need to barge into people's homes, jump out of bushes and ambush cars park in "tamans" to see if they are khawalting or not.

Alrite people,its VISIT MALAYSIA YEAR 2007!
