'Don't mess with royalty' when in Malaysia
-
Sultan of Johore is actually kinder than the "sultan of Singapore" in some aspects. At least he didnt sue pple till bankrupt?Originally posted by mhcampboy:Oh yes he was. This is more stories i heard abt him.
He went to play golf. He didnt hit the ball. His caddy just casualy giggle. He beat the caddy up till death with the golf stick!! The caddy's brother who is a miltary personnel went berserk and wanted to shoot the sultan. but he was caught and sentenced.
told by a malaysian.
next... his motorcade was travelling next to a state property. he saw a poor boy...climbing up at one of the trees to grab some fruits. he aprehended the boy and put him in a cage with monkeys. the boy is scratched real terribly.

So what if their engrish is beyong comprehensive standard? Many Singaporeans cant even speak decent Engish. I am talking about students who pass O levels engish but still have trouble with Engish. And they have trouble with Chinese. I wonder what singaporean are good at anyway.Originally posted by gohkatkat:nope thanks......i have been to a few places in malaysia.....seriously speaking......malaysia is not my ideal place.........because they speak malay....cantonese........chinese....and english.....and their english is beyond comprehensive standards........
oh btw....i NEVER said all malays are racist.....but the subtle element of racism can never be eleminated........can you say in times of hunger.......between your malay friend and you to share some food.....would you give wholeheartedly yours to him?????i can NEVER do that anymore.......i will HAVE ALL the share....... -
Sounds very much like our Singapore Police Force who is still waiting for the girl to make a report on being whacked.Originally posted by ShutterBug:In my opinion, in Malaysia, these so call "Royal Families" are what Hokkiens here call "jiak liao bee, cho bo lan". -
In full, Duli Yang Maha Mulia Baginda Al-Mutawakkil Alallah Sultan Iskandar Al-Haj ibni Almarhum Sultan Sir Ismail Al-Khalidi (born April 8, 1932) in Johor Bahru was the eighth Yang di-Pertuan Agong (roughly equivalent to King) of Malaysia from April 26, 1984 to April 25, 1989, and fourth Sultan of Johor.
The eldest son of Sultan Ismail ibni Almarhum Sultan Ibrahim by Sultanah Ungku Tun Aminah binti Ungku Paduka Bena Sri Maharaja Utama Ahmad, the prince was named Tunku Mahmood Iskandar. However, as all other Sultans of Johor with the name "Mahmood" met with an uneasy end, he dropped his first name upon succeeding his father on May 10, 1981.
A controversial figure in Malaysia, Sultan Iskandar has led a chequered life. Appointed Tunku Mahkota or Crown Prince in 1959, he was dismissed from that post in 1961 by his father after being found guilty of assault in the Malaysian courts and sentenced to imprisonment. However, Sultan Ismail relented on his deathbed and restored Tunku Mahmood Iskandar to the succession ten days before the former died.
A keen soldier, Sultan Iskandar was often at loggerheads with the then Prime Minister Dr. Mahathir Mohamad while he was Sultan of Johor. However, in 1984, upon election as Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Iskandar warmed to his Prime Minister and relationships between the two reached dizzying heights when Mahathir was invested with the first class family order of the crown of Johor, a previously unheard of honour for a commoner.
While he was Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Iskandar created further controversy by assaulting a golf caddy. A soldier, the brother of the caddy who was badly injured, subsequently ran amok in Kuala Lumpur causing a security scare. The soldier was later arrested and sent to a mental hospital.
His assault on a hockey coach and teacher, Mr Douglas Gomez (d.1999) sparked a constitutional crisis between the government and the Malay Rulers which culminated in the removal of the legal immunity from prosecution of all the rulers in March 1993.
Sultan Iskandar, however, continues to be immune from prosecution for his previous offences as the law which provides for the rulers to be stripped of their legal immunity was not made retroactive. (i.e. having a backdating effect)
Sultan Iskandar divorced the mother of his Crown Prince, a Cornish lady by the name of Josephine Trevorrow, in favour of Tengku Zanariah binti Tengku Panglima Raja Ahmad of the Kelantan royal family. She served as his Raja Permaisuri Agong and is the current Sultanah of Johor. -
i tink since they think so proudly of themselve we should consider sending them the picture of the *ahem* with a *ahem* as his *ahem*Originally posted by newcomer:Fucking royalties. I so fucking hate them. Only suck on citizens hard earned money and do nothing to contribute to the nation.
I oso kana bad experience before while driving. Do you know that if a royal member is on the road, you have to stop your car one side and wait until they pass? Well, I didn't know and the escorts in front gave me the finger. Wtf, totally ruined my mood. I wished the rider would just crash and die while fingering.
since they are immune to the laws lets see whats their reaction to the picture -

Do u know that if a Singapore big-timeminister is on the road, the TP will cordon off the entire CROSS junction while waiting for them to pass?Originally posted by newcomer:Fucking royalties. I so fucking hate them. Only suck on citizens hard earned money and do nothing to contribute to the nation.

Even if your traffic light is GREEN, u have to wait for them to pass.
And u know that your vehicle cant even be too close to PM when he is inside another vehicle? Once the security points at u, u must stop and keep a distance. -
if there's one thing good about mahatir, he was for the abolishion of royalty

Royalties shouldn't misuse their power also what. It's kinda ridiculous for a person who sped, nearly hit someone and still not feel sorry about it.Originally posted by mhcampboy:Aiyoh. Malaysia mah. common what to pay respect to the royalties. even here in sg... im sure u dun talk any o how to ur mp rite?...
it may not be fair for us... but tats their way of living... royalties are given priveleges.... -

How do you draw your conclusion from having been to only a few places in malaysia and that the people there speak malay, cantonese, chinese and english and therefore this makes it not your ideal place.... 'And their english is beyond comprehensive standards...

Well, in my opinion and ecperience, service in Malaysia sucks big time!
Waiters there need to be yelled at for attention, they take your orders with little or NO interest or smiles and a sulky face. After they took your orders, they walk away like they are at home, then they take their time bringing your order.
I thought SIngapore was getting bad in service, over in Malaysia I found it worse to power of 10! If Singapore don't buck up, we might win Malaysia in Super Poor Service!
Personally, I attribute theor poor service attitude to their slow slow pace of living. Especially when most are still in the Kampong Age. -

You know Dragg, you probably right. But hey, if Malaysia wants to claim to excel and become internationally recognized as a popular tourist destination, their current standard of service is not going to help them achieve it under 100 years!Originally posted by dragg:maybe it is because you are a singaporean.
