WISE or OTHERWISE

Lately, there are too many rumblings in Malaysia... to name such rumblings the past couple of weeks..

1. Yoga – Fatwa or Not to Fatwa

2. Malaysian Economic Situation – Affected or Not Affected

Firstly, Yoga - to fatwa or not to fatwa.. i cant't even type this without having a smile on my face.. now seriously, what is a form of exercise going to do to my fellow friends.. but then again.. most practising it are doing it as a form of exercise.. as such, why do some clergymen decide to make it 'haram'.. ooooppsss release a fatwa on it i mean... WISE or OTHERWISE

Secondly, the Malaysian Economic Situation - affected or not affected.. the whole world is going through a financial crisis.. Singapore our friendly (not-so) neighbour has declared the economic slow down.. but in Malaysia.. we are otherwise.. infact we are encouraged to spend.. we are encouraged to reduce our EPF (Employee Provident Fund) contribution from 11% to 8% to assist us in spending more.. We have the ‘Malaysia Saving Sales’.. please tell me I am wrong.. How can you save and encourage people to buy at the same time.. are they not two different end of the stick.. if this was their strategy - WISE or OTHERWISE, if it was their rationale WISE or OTHERWISE.. or if it was the command of English WISE or OTHERWISE..

On to my very own backyard.. what would you do when someone seeks your assistance on a issue they have at hand.. you help them.. you go through options of solutions and zero down on the best solution. Then what if they don’t follow the solution and still complain about it… you seek clarification.. and guess what?? they actually tell you that don’t have to follow the solution provided.. such my dear respected colleague.. are you WISE or OTHERWISE???



Everything is a matter of perspective.. WISE or OTHERWISE is just the same.. but today this has given me an an avenue to write in my blog.. so am I WISE or OTHERWISE..

Just a thot
