OF SHAMANS AND WITCHDOCTORS
It seems everybody has a particular someone to see to or to consult with particularly so when whatever that is going to happen to his or her immediate future, could not, be ascertained- the outcome of which being quite in line, with what they; hoped to be. Geomancers: are especially sought but the mathematics plus the massive refurbishment, renovation and even relocation of dwelling along with work places involved would have put off most except for the die hard believers. Soothsayers may be preferred as the designation, quite aptly imply are soothing in what they have to say, a promotion in the pipeline perhaps. Inasmuch a rewarding contract notwithstanding the lowest price quoted, in a judicious manner that being so without any of the profligate element, the best team, together with, the foremost in work exposition- the criteria above and over everything else that is. People holding high positions would utilize much that comes to hand even though the said enterprise could very well involve things that quintessentially lie in the realm of the extraordinary or the supernatural as the case may be. After all, they do need advisors of all sorts. Their careers would have demanded that. An election down the line or a popularity contest that is overly vicious if one does not play the same game. A matchmaker that insists on the parents seeking the opinion of a special person of whom is well versed in what the stars and constellation have to say in respect of the, would- be young couple suitability. Also a worried misfit too engrossed with a strange dream he experienced the night before, a pious personnage that he desperately wants to refer to or just the mind playing tricks on him. Last, but not, least one or two inept bearers of high office much exhausted of all the Machiavellian procedures they can muster except putting into commission the most expensive and the extremely menacing of Witchdoctors.

A FEW MARCHES TO LAST
The figures are quite staggering but not, really so perhaps, nine thousand here and another two there. The littlest of whispers that was amplified, so, as, to make every ear drum burst, the objective primarily to induce some form of panic situations that the ones still unsure would be petrified. They could all along lose the few things that should be theirs and none of the others must ever covet. Institutions that bear their marks along with their identity, even though the mere suggesting of a miniscule opening in order to allow a fraction of the minutest of real world experience. To interplay with their arcane albeit regimented training modules, the resulting effect would only be to encourage beneficial review of dated mindsets and activate wholesome paradigm shifts perfectly attuned to the vagaries of global realities. Refusing in totality the necessary recommendations would inexorably eventuate in their collective awareness being all, the, more cocooned in its own pitiable irrelevance. The fact that change is the most constant of all circumstances belies their debilitating inactions. The young ones were brainwashed into blindly concurring with their conniving elders, of whom, fanned their fragile presentiments of congenital birthrights threatened without due recourse. The superiors having formalized guilds indoctrinating their bright- eyed members goes to show their preponderance towards political survivability at whatever costs. They do not care that their much myopic viewpoints produce only unflinching narrow mindedness and base parochialism in the young initiates, very fragile collective consciousness. The onus upon an undisturbed perpetuation of unholy pillage, along with, a remorseless yet veritably- gross mismanagement of the nation’s economy restricted any inclinations of lofty idealisms if ever seeing any light of day. The far- reaching notions, being, fast discarded by the policy makers into the surreal domains of intellectual dementia makes nation building, a praxis morphed into a polymorphous figuration of short- sighted ethnocentricity. By, the same token the ruling coalition’s time attested but chronologically faulted race based methodology, must distinctively, be subverted in that a synergetic arrangement would arrive in replacement. Instead of a race, in supremacy- jaded battle cry the insuppressible catch- word should instinctively be the citizenry or the rakyat in superiority thus transcending all racialist inklings inherent throughout the homeland. Too high sounding perhaps but the euphoria of a hundred or more thousand people accompanying Anwar’s nomination last Saturday bears testimony to exactly that. Merdeka3! And how appropriate.

THE BEAR IS ON A RAMPAGE
Finally, the bear has had enough. Its mind losing all elements of reasonableness, it, must strike, its primordial instincts could not contain themselves. It is the alpha figure, the sole male, the strong one that he must make his mark. His territory or that he perceives to be his after all others have been lost, must be, returned to him. How insolent of the lesser creatures to intrude onto what is rightfully his, even though he acquiesced to some of his stomping ground, being, returned to ones who were already there before him. Howbeit, there are still that are actually his region, his marks, are, all there to be seen and felt but in their obstinacy and covetousness the minions still have the audacity to rebel thus encroach upon his jurisdiction. Whatever he had willingly, give, they are in want of more. To add salt to the wound they dare conspire with his archenemies along with acquiring weapon from them presenting to all and sundry their latent belligerency. His silent guns would not remain as they were for they should fire all the way. His people descending from the Vikings of old would not at all be the effeminate majority coerced into complacency. He had started what he can finished, his canons ready plus weapons of all sorts cocked, his infantry in the thousand most willing to march onwards anywhere. They were a superpower before and still- is. They too have the mother of all bombs just to try for size, perennially shortchanged they have felt and now they do not care any more. Darn you NATO and AMERICA just engage us if you are not ill at ease. We just want to protect our own and not see what is, little left, for them being, taken away, still not pleased with that then meet us all the way. You Dare!
