Sabah -A Pandora's Box?

Pandora's Costly Curiosity

Once up a time, a long time ago, Zeus gave his daughter  Pandora, a box with strict instructions never ever to open it.

The ever-curious Pandora opened the box. Out flew every kind of disease and sickness, hate and envy, and all the bad things that people had never experienced before. Pandora slammed the lid closed, but it was too late. All the bad things were already out of the box. They flew away, out into the world.

Diseases and Evil Escape

So, is Sabah now embroiled with the Pandora box phenomenon?

Opening the Floodgates?

So far, two high ranking MPs have resigned from the BN. A third is going the same way. Speculation is that it will be another local leader who is a senator.  

As damage control, DPM Muhyiddin came to persuade the two MPs who had resigned but to no avail.

Kingmaker or Spoiler?

Pakatan is claiming a massive pendulum swing will come its way when more defections take place. They are predicting a domino effect. Is it too early to be gleefully happy at this turn of events? What if this is another red herring like many before?

Remember this is the Wild, Wild East. Things have happened and people can be traded on and off like in a pasar tamu.

Will he be more successful than Pandora?

PM Najib is coming by to the Land Below the Wind on 11 August with his RCI terms for investigating into illegals having Mycards and voting rights.

Can he gel UMNO and BN once more?

Will Najib be too late? Has the UMNO machinery ran its full course in Sabah with Musa at the helm?

Or will  it be as a blogger predicts, the two former MPs will come back into BN's fold when they are appeased with gifts to return.

Another Red Herring?

This is a very important juncture in time for Sabahans and Malaysians in general.

Will Najib be a Pandora that can take back all that which has escaped from the box?

Will Najib be that reformer for Sabah?

I would love to see this as PM Najib moves up the ante in the coming days.

Japanese Food Outing for the Family

Delightful Welcome

Yes, on 4th August we went to the PJ Hilton to have Japanese food.

As it was Buffet night, there were two shifts at the Genji Restaurant.

We chose the earlier shift from 6 pm to 8 pm.

A sampling 

Food was real fresh.

We started with sashimi. It was oysters galore, meguru, salmon, octopus and what not and we ate them with relish accompanied by wasabi-soya dips.

Then, I ate the delicious unagi and the palate lilting miso soup and cawan mushi.

Another filling

We also had the fried stuff of beef cubes, fried salmon and chicken. For tempura I had pumpkin, okra and brinjal.

Then I went for saba fish and salmon head.  A lot of collagen in that head! Edamame  and cheese cake was nice to chew on as an interval item.

Amazing unagi

After a plate of fruits of grapes,dragon fruit,rock melon and papaya, I had my filling of matcha ice-cream and vanilla as well.

Good food. Cost us each RM89++.

Still at the old-rate!
