Johor Sultan had pass away :(

It's sad to hear someone had pass away, especially someone who had a great reputation in the country, such as Lim Goh Tong (Genting Highland founder), and Johor Sultan. i only post these two names, because they are the most respected ppl in my list.

Sultan of Johor 8 April 1932 – 22 January 2010 (Most Powerful and Richest Sultan in Malaysia)


Lim Goh Tong 1918 – 23 October 2007 (Founder of Genting Highlands)

On last Friday (22th Jan 2010), i over heard the news from a taxi driver that the Johor Sultan had pass away. i was so shocked when i heard the news, i feel sad because another great man had pass away.

Even though, of his turbulent temper and a series of alleged criminal acts occurring between the 1970s and the 1990, he's a person with a warm and generous personality.

For more information please see "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iskandar_of_Johor"

During his death, we had to wear a black ribbon on our left arm, and for male Malay had to wear a black songkok with white ribbon on it, for female Malay had to wear a white sarong over their head in respect to his death.

The police also put a summon for those who did not do these, I personally think that it's unnecessary for this. Even some of the goverment ppl did not do it to, and for ppl like us they will try to take some coffee money from us.

Because of this i had to spend RM2 to buy a black ribbon, which is made from a cloth to tied it over my arm. And i saw there's alot of creative ppl in Johor, which they use black duct tape to replace the black ribbon. There are also ppl, who use A4 size white paper and staples to replace the white ribbon on their songkok. These really made me laugh, and now i really think that Malaysia have some hope, as there are ppl who is really creative.

Nevertheless, i hope the current Sultan will do his part, just like what his father had done.

God Bless Malaysia.

i had just receive some news about the mourning attire, there will be no action against those who don't don mourning attire. for more information please click on the following link http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2010/1/25/nation/20100125141402&sec=nation

It was said by the new sultan of Johor that he's very concerned and he is not pleased about these rumours that do not have any basis.

Moreover he also said this:"I have already briefed my officers relating to the matter and I would like to urge the public to complain to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commissionif officials attempt to fine them."

So if during this whole week if any of the police wanna to fine you, print the news out and show it to them. they can do nothing to you.
