Government Survey - is it real?

Yesterday, my house received a call where the caller claimed to be a representative from Ministry of ???? (I can't really remember as the speaker was very soft-spoken). According to the lady, it was a survey on the election result as well as our views on the previous and new government. Some of the questions asked:
1. What do you think of our Prime Minister's leadership?
2. Name 2 things that our Prime Minister should do for our country.
3. What do you think of Najib's governance?
4. What is your main media in getting news about politics in Malaysia?
5. Why do you think people vote for opposition?
6. Why do you think people vote for BN?
7. How confident are you about opposition as your new state government?
8. Do you agree that Malays that joined the opposition are betrayer to the Malay's society?
9. Who would you vote again if there is a re-election?

There are actually more questions than the above, which i think took more than 1/2 hour. However, I feel that some questions are quite sensitive to even discuss through the phone. Though it was made known to public that our federal government wanted to found out what went wrong with their governance and campaign, we did not heard that a survey will be conducted in such a way. Does anyone of you received such call as well?

New Family Member


There's a new member in our family and her name is Tanzie.

She's brown and yellow and comes with spotty belly.

But some said her name is difficult to pronounce,

and thought of many names instead.

Suggestions like Hwang Hwang, Melbourne and New Zealand also comes to mind.

Pencil and Million also sounds just as nice.

But in the end it was decided that,

calling her Tanzie is still the best.


Yeah, yeah, i know it sounds corny, but what the heck....
