"The Death of One Man is a Tragedy; The Death of millions is a statistic."

Blinky Mummy have this second part of the quote as her Blog Title.

Though this quote from Joseph Stalin sound very morbid to me, it's suddenly dawns to me, that man, we living in a world that revolves around this quote.

So I decide to take an in-depth look on this quote.

This quote is said in response to Winston Churchill comment on the Death Toll of people during Stalin's rule.

What this quote means as I understand is that when the quantity of any death reach a value that is beyond any (numeric) figure, it lost it's significant value but start to form a numerical non-significant figure. How sad. How sad indeed.

This quote in terms de-value the true meaning of life and it's important no matter how important or non-important it is.

How true indeed as it apply to our post-911 world. Everyone living in fear from one event (Madrid Bombing) to another (Bali Bombing) to another (London Bombing). The quote itself form two part. The former and the later.

Let's look at the former "The Death of One Man is a Tragedy"

This sentance hold the truth to those who lost their love ones in any events. They break down upon learning the truth, cursing and swearing at the evil doers, praying hard for any hope they holds in the return of their love ones no matter how small it is.

And the latter "The Death of millions is a statistic" applies to the general masses unaffected directly.

They will pity those that are affected, praying hard that it will not happen to them, but yet in the end, the death are just numeric value to them no matter how big or small it is.

I sincerely hope that as and when we continue with our life, whenever such a tragic events occur, we will appreciate life more.

Ciao.
Lupin

Still haven't settle down.

I wanted to blog, I seriously do, there is so much I wanted to say, yet, no time.
Still got some many work need to clear. On top of it, more impending tasks given.

Sigh, I wish I could clear those before August.

Cause August got alot of nice movies, and Konan Kenji want to watch them.

I had already cut down on the commenting and visiting of Blinky Mummy. Hope she don't scold me.

BTW, I starting on a new Novel, looking for co-writer/editor. Anyone interested pls email me. It's going to be Political Science circulating on the China subject. I had already form some ideas. Once it's done, I going to publish it unlike my other works.

Still having writers block on my two ongoing project, "Venusa" & "Vistation from my Future Wife". Hope I have enough inspiration.

Of Monkeys & Peanuts ( A Round up of NKF Saga)

Due to the Out of Action, I can’t post my view on the NKF Saga for the entire freaking week. So, I decided to do a round-up together with my good friend Konan Kenji (aka the movie Kritic).

From the earlier post, I told you buggers that I had to go down to office to clear up some work, while there, I decided to print out some of the blogs that have a say on this NKF saga. After discussing with Konan Kenji we decided to do a joint entry. This entry consists on two parts. The first part will direct to the individual blog, our views on what they say. The second part will be our peanuts view on the issue.

Konan Kenji: To Mr Rockson Takumi Tan.
Word of advice, Brudder, you better tries to control your Lu Meh Lu Song (Hokkien: The More you scold the happier) attitude before you get into any unnecessary trouble. Seriously, there are a lot of buggers out that that enjoy your out take on the issue of NKF. But I want to so you another side of the picture. There are also some buggers out there that laugh at your stupidity at doing things they don’t dare to do fearing the fear of getting sued their pants off. They are waiting to see as more people read your views and takes, how will peoples from NKF, SPH, gahmen react. They are also bunch of buggers who will say you are only NATO (No Action Talk Only), just a Empty Vessel talk only know how to yak and behaving like a male XX (with due respect). They will think, you so fucking clever, you go take care of NKF lah, *pui*. Know what I mean. Anyway, I suggest you put a disclaimer on your site before you get into trouble.

Lupin Tan: To Blinky Mummy.
I will explain with Konan on why people feel outrage over the pay, the taps, the First class traveling and stuff. So please be patience if you are reading this.

Konan Kenji: To Jerry Lim.
First of all, Kudos to your take on this saga, you gave a very complete picture to this whole saga, complete with pictures (Self made). Your breakdown on how the money is spent, the justification over it, the different between business and organistation, ever the justification of the right of donors prove that you are a very well read person and you know how to reason with the right tools.

Konan Kenji: To Mr Brown.
Another bugger who give a good point of view. I totally agree on the not to stop calling part. Please think of the patients.

Lupin Tan: What we think.
After a heaty discussion with Konan, This is what we think.

Anyone heard of Darwin’s Award? Well, I think I would nominate Mr. T T Durai for this year running for suing SPH over the so call “Defamation” over this article they wrote on him.

It’s really like scoring an own goal despite successful attempts to put the issue down.

Our views go alongside with Jerry Lim comments. We would also like to add our peanuts to the pile.

First of all when this saga start to blow up, commoners will think that NKF as an organization that 挂羊头卖狗肉 (Wolf in Sheep Skin). In their mentality, they can’t accept that what seems like a Charity Organization been run like a Profit making business. (Note: I say Profit making business), where their huge part of their donations (hard earn) money goes to the paycheck of the CEO. Together with the perks and incentives.

This boils down to a very important question. How to run NKF? Business or Organization? Yes, you can run an Organization like a business, but the question next is does that give you the justification to use the money as the way they put it in the papers? No. It's a very clear cut thingy. You must understand whets the purpose of the money if for. The reason why the commoners want Mr. Durai to step down is because though his intention of running the organization as a business is good and beneficial, he so called reap more that he deserves from this 'earnings'.

Yes, I agree that in a business, CEO pay is so much, so much. But you misplaced the donor’s intentions of donating the money in the first place. It's like someone comes to you on the street asking for money because he is sick and the very next minute you see him using the money for other intentions. That's why the transparency needs to be in place.

Lastly I would like to appeal to those who are angry, with all the changes going on to the new management with the promises, I feel that this bad past will soon be over. Please continue to be charitable not for the sake of winning something, but they really need the money despite all this hoo ha. You know that 600K are no peanuts to those in needs despite what they say. We are not the monkeys that we seem. Do the right things.

Half Time Report, Half Gone Computer, Half Blooded Prince & Half awake minded.

This is a Half Time report from Lupin Tan.

What Half Time? From reservist lah. I'm at home now typing this blog entry to update you buggers how am I surviving now. Well, in short reservist sucks. I thought I could take a short break from my tedious work routine, Gego (Hokkien for “But then”) it’s the same if not worse. Got one day, I need to wake up at 3 am to start work and end at 11pm. For that whole day, I only survive with one piece of chicken patty and one Dao Sha Bao (Red bean bun). For the whole freaking week, I can’t get to go home, no newspaper to read, no blinkymummy news, no Internet!!!

Half Gone PC! I came back about 6 pm today to find out that my computer is infested with viruses though I had patched the Windows 2K. I was so fed up that I could surf Internet that I went down to town, just to get the Antivirus and on the way I bought another thing.

Half Blooded Prince. Yes, I bought Harry Potter. No, not because I (Professor Lupin is in it (btw, mine Lupin has other meanings lah)) but I do enjoy reading the book and since next week is going to be another long week, I decided to buy the book and bring it in to camp to read, should be able to read finish lah.

Half awake mind. So by the time I am typing this blog entry at 0038hrs 170705 (Fwahh, Sunday already, going book in at 2359 hrs) got around 24 hrs to do things. I wanted to sleep but can’t cause the stupid computer is still scanning for virus. But I still have to wake early tomorrow to go back to office (ON A SUNDAY) to do some work. Poor Me.

So I think I will be gone again. Though I think I can still do some surfing for 1 or 2 days from the undisclosed location of mine.

I wish you buggers had the best time of your life.

Ciao,
Lupin Tan
