How come Kaytee is into environmental causes? ...Eh? How come Kaytee is into environmental causes? Is he trying to mend his broken friendship with Antares? <br /><br />Rest assured, there is no greater environmentalist than Kaytee's hero: Small Lim, the CM of Penang. He is trying to re-introduce tigers into Penang! Let us not forget that tigers once freely roamed on Pulau Pinang and Seberang Perai, long before UMNO was formed. I wonder: will Small Lim transport elephants, tapirs and wild boar into the island too?? As for the Unladen Swallow's suggestion of shit power, I'm sure it can be found in Small Lim's mind as well (although some say that it is already displayed in Mamak Zambry's hold on power in Perak)!<br /><br />Whatever it is, Small Lim is at least more environmentally savvy than the great Mamak a/l Kutty, who introduced <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Putrajaya_Wetlands_Park" REL="nofollow">hippopotami into the Putra Jaya wetlands</A>! Goodness gracious me! Apart from Telekom Malaysia's fantastic BlueHyppo, when were hippos -- real ones -- ever in Malaysia? Anyway, it was said that when the old man was very slowly losing his memory towards the end of his long pharoanic reign as Prime Minister of Malaysia, he began entertaining fantasies that Malaysia was actually Zimbabwe: hence the appearance of the hippos at Putra Jaya!<br /><br /><A HREF="http://www.healthknowitall.net/images/swine_flu_children.jpg" REL="nofollow">Swine Fever Virus</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-17061435076833328102009-04-27T11:05:00.000+08:002009-04-27T11:05:00.000+08:00Moo,

They are now no more than tourist attractions. A series of lakes will do a better job at flood control by diverting water away from the river so that when the river does crest its impact is minimized. Lakes also provide local communities a source of fresh water saving on piping cost. The whole idea being to spread the excess water over a large area.vinnannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-23938804118626979962009-04-27T07:25:00.000+08:002009-04-27T07:25:00.000+08:00You know, there's always still shit power.

NO DAM in the world can continue to run more than 70 years, due to sediments. <br /><br />In fact, technology advancement has REDUCE the energy consumption dramatically. Due to monopoly, alternate power such solar, fail to pick up in the country. Wind power is no where to see even we have many windy state that are poor.moo_thttp://caffeinbar.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-39428711271239169072009-04-27T01:23:00.000+08:002009-04-27T01:23:00.000+08:00Kaytee

Fresh water will be the next commodity in the future . <br /><br />Happen to know that area very well .<br /><br />But sad to say those idiots trying to tear down a heritage of Penang .<br /><br />Kaytee <br /><br />If you want to do something for Penang why don't you write something on this . I'm dead against this project .<br /><br />Its in regards to the Penang Hill Railway . Guess I might be organising some protests when the time comes .<br /><br />See the links below :<br /><br />a)Penang Hill Railway: How it came to be , http://www.sun2surf.com/article.cfm?id=32635 <br />b)End of the track for funicular railway ; http://www.sun2surf.com/article.cfm?id=32636 <br />c)Keep funicular railway, says retired engineer ; http://www.sun2surf.com/article.cfm?id=32763Awakeninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07578612991061778557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-6285671172227078452009-04-27T00:23:00.000+08:002009-04-27T00:23:00.000+08:00"Also, I was then reminded that leaving control of..."Also, I was then reminded that leaving control of nuclear power development in the hands of our corrupt and incompetent bureaucratic wonders might not be a good idea"<br /><br />This, I cannot agree. <br /><br />Did you know, our oil refineries have among the lowest rates of plant fires in the world? Our safety record is much better than the Americans, incompetency and corruption or not.<br /><br />Did you know that in Bintulu we have the largest LNG facility in the world in a single location? It has been running smoothly for the last 25 years or so, when a single explosion could literally flatten the whole of Bintulu.<br /><br />Ironically, again, incompetence or corruption or not, the neighbour of that LNG plant is Shell's GTL plant (pretty sure Shell isn't a Malaysian company) which blew up in the 80s.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-4719890897360833372009-04-26T23:49:00.000+08:002009-04-26T23:49:00.000+08:00Great to see Kaytee championing an environmental c...Great to see Kaytee championing an environmental cause! <br /><br />written on your blog, It would likely draw attention from people who normally wouldn't care to read environmental related stuff. <br /><br />way to go!Raoulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03607663689854483454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-67552375887280279452009-04-26T23:01:00.000+08:002009-04-26T23:01:00.000+08:00thanks XieAnthanks XieAnKTemochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09951253039042572381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-63846729628033901422009-04-26T22:28:00.000+08:002009-04-26T22:28:00.000+08:00The story of Prometheus is also about elitism and ...The story of Prometheus is also about elitism and giving choice to the masses.<br /><br />What's interesting about the undersesa cable for Bakun is that it alone was originally costed at about $8 billion in '97.<br /><br />Today's headlines mentions nothing about cost or the fact that they do not have a tested proto-type they can use as a model or for base costing.<br /><br />There was also a recent announcement that with the contributions from highway robber and extortionate IPP's, Tenaga now has reserve capacity of about 50% which is the highest in the world!<br /><br />So, the supply of 10,000 kw to mainland M'sia is a red herring.
