Cultural Evening

Amirul last minute asked me to do a report on the Thumbelina doll sales. Shit, why do I have to do shitty work when I am sick?



Yeah....shitty report need to be done.

So, yesterday's Cultural Evening was really really screwed up. I tell you why, let's go step by step.

At 11 a.m, I had to be at school to help out on preparing the decorations, bringing in plastic chairs, finishing the name tag works and so on.

I was really really sick.


All work no fun, nah. Manpreet entertained us with his dance.



Kyle and Amirul and Hao Yang managed to clean the boy's toilet at the backstage just for the event.

They did a great job.


The plastic chairs.


EYE members at work.


The decorations.


Cheng Heng brought his basketball for us to play.

If you can't differenciate a basketball and football. This is what happens.

Basketball = Use hand
Fooball = Use foot

Kyle's theory = Basketball = kick with slippers

Equals to toe nail injury.

Ok, ya'll should know that if you have cough sickness, flu will come along too. So does phlegm. I was trying to spit out my phlegm into the nearby school drain. Guess where it landed?

This is gross.......

My middle finger.


EEEEEE YEEEWWWWW!!!

At 3 something in the afternoon, Tom's dad took the trouble to fetch me back home. I was having one-sided headache. I think it was due to the heatiness in school. Next time should really really take care of my health.

At home, mum made me Chrysanthemum tea. That drink really cools me down alot. Had to take medication pills.


I couldn't sleep because of that one-sided headache of mine. Nevermind about that, what worries me is about tonight's event. I was worried that Cultural Evening won't go smoothly like everyone had in mind. I remembered Tze Tze telling me that former schoolmates and outsiders including brothers and sisters can go.

Since when?

4:30 p.m, was raining heavily. Took a nice cold shower and changed to formal wear. Worrying about how the even goes is still on my mind.

Reach at school at 5 :45 p.m. The event was about to start. With the crew member's tags ready, I and Manpreet had to handle them to all of the EYE members. Security was smoothly handled at the moment when I reached at school. Ian, Yu Kin, Jit Chern were guarding the gate and making sure no outsiders can come it.

I told Jit Chern whether former schoolmates can come. He thought I was bullshitting. Oh boy...
Hao Yang's father were helping out on the security. Thank you uncle.

There was this guy named Thomas, who seems to be an outsider (He's from Seri Bintang school). Tze Tze managed to get him in by asking Tzhong Shen to act as Thomas's 'brother'. Ian and I knew, we were in deep shit already.

Didn't I mentioned that Manpreet and I were 'Event Managers' for the event. So if anything happens, both of us will be screwed by Cik Chan before scolding the rest.

I didn't had much pictures for yesterday's event. There were only a few.





Mai Sabrina was the hostess of the evening.


Amirul and Kyle were 'VIP's of the evening.


The Chinese dance.

There was trouble at the main gate of the school. Eng Joo and Leslie were outside begging our security to go in. They had bought the tickets. Tze Tze wanted them to go in, but we refused to let them it. Ian explained to Tze Tze about our situation. She said she can take responsibility.

HELLO?!

Firstly, she had the guts to tell me that the person who sold the ticket to her says that former school mates and outsiders can come. But, we didn't said so. That was a false claim and we continued to stick to the 'No Outsiders' policy. Cik Chan begged them to go away, go somewhere else, but Eng Joo and Leslie refused. Its like the word 'NO' doesn't exist in their mind. Look up to the dictionary.

I asked them nicely to go to Aladdin to play, Leslie complained that it is far.

Daniel : "Aiyo Eng Joo, Leslie. Please don't make my job hard for tonight. Why don't you all walk to Aladdin there and play computer games first?"

Leslie : "Wah, that far?"

Daniel : "You can complained that is far ah? I can even walk from school back to my home and not complaining that it is far, then what about you?'

Leslie : "You different than me mah..."

Ian : "If Daniel can do it, why can't you?"

Leslie : "Cuz' we're different, you know?"

No I don't know Leslie, I don't know that walking such a short distance to a cybercafe is far.

Like I had not enough problems, Tze Tze protested that if we don't allow them in, she won't perform. Fine, then don't. Begging to us doesn't work, so Eng Joo and Leslie decided to beg Cik Chan tolet them in.

Eng Joo : "Teacher ah, I have been in this school for so long, can't I at least go in. Just me and Leslie only?"

Cik Chan : " Cannot lah, government say we cannot allow outsiders in after approving this project. It's not that I don't want to let you all in. Encik Abdul Aziz is inside there, he could recognize the two of you."

Fair enough. More and more outsiders were denied in to the school.

Then, another problem came to us again. Nicholas and his 'band' came.

Daniel : "Wassup Nick. Look, I'm sorry but I can't let outsiders in bro. Part of the policy."

Joshua Prasad was with him and his 'band'.

Then, Nick's brother came to me, the school's main gate was separating us.

Nick's bro : "Eh, you event organizer right? How can you not know who are we?"

Daniel : "I'm sorry, but I really don't know who you are. It's just that I cannot let outsiders in."

Nick's bro : "You are the event organizers right? Then let us in lah."

Eh, bitch, how the heck do I know who are you?

Then one of the started smoking and said....

"How can they not know who were are? You know who were are anot?"

Eng Joo and Leslie were stunned.

Nick's bro started to dislike me already, like I didn't, Ian felt like punching them in the face. He then stated...

"I don't like people talking to my brother (Nick) like that."

Erm, hello? What the fuck did I said to your brother. Do you want me to clean your damn ears so that next time you can hear me clearly. Just because you're part of a rap group doesn't mean you can boss people like me and my friends around and act big. You have no respect for students like me, so why should I bother respecting you and your band mates. Call yourself rappers, y'all just a bunch of un-educated people who raps about the same old thing that is been playing on the radio. Girls, booze, money, cars, not to mention sex.

Raj then came to me, confirmed with me that they were performing.

Its not my problem that I don't know that your performing on stage tonight. Because
1)I never seen you all before
2)I never heard you all before
3)I never see you all perform before
4)You all never came for rehearsal before
5)I thought out performers are not allowed?

They puffed their cigarette smoke infront of my face. Great, guess my cough will be still around for a few more days.

News that outsiders managed to sneak into the hall from the back. I and Manpreet then rushed to patrol the back ball. We both saw Ming King in his car with his friends, slowly cruising. They saw us, we stare back. They then drove off. They better not be comming in.

"Rusty Grills", that's the name of that rap group. I wonder how they performed. I hope everyone boo them off the stage.

Halfway rapping, their mics were cut off. The students started to clap. But Nick's brother was like
"Hold on hold on, we ain't finish yet. We ain't finished yet."

You are on the brink on getting finished.

They complained that the PA system was not functioning well. In my mind, I would say the shit in their pants and forgotten the lyrics, and turned off their mics to have space to breathe in again.

For the past 10 minutes, all I hear was 'Mic check one two three' over and over again. If that's what you all were rapping about, we got your point already mic testers. Jay Z or Timbaland should hire y'all.

From the look of the students, they weren't enjoying a single bit. I saw Luke (Nick's younger brother) standing outside of the hall. He was kicked out by Rusty Grills to perform today. I really feel sorry for Luke though. I and Manpreet advised him to go solo, better than rusting in Rusty Grils.

By the way, of all names, why Rusty Grills? Predicted that you'll rust to dust huh?

Noticed that the school's fencing was cut open. Great job outsiders, EYE team is fucked.

Went back to the main get to check whether is everything going ok. Cik Chan pulled out Thomas and asked him to leave school. Shit, she noticed that there were outsiders in already. Cik Chan then scolded us for letting them in.

Eu Jun was the one who escorted him out, so I ask where is Tze Tze, so that I can give her a piece of my mind.

Tze Tze : "Hello, what happened?"

Daniel : " *claps hand* Good, next time you should invite Thomas again so that I and my team can get scolding from Cik Chan, you happy?"

Tze Tze : "Sorry loh..."

Somemore say that you will take respnsibility.

Went back to the hall, saw Mr Chee and Hao Yang's father confronting Ah Doi and an outisider again. Ah Doi claimed that it is his brother. Hao Yang's father then escorted the outsider out of the school.

Manpreet and I then had a small brief meeting with Kyle and Amirul at the assembly ground.

Manpreet : " *points at Hao Yang's father escorting an outsider out of school* Look at this, you all should thank God that Hao Yang's father is helping us out. If not, we'll be in deep shit."

Daniel : "Who allowed those rap performers to come? They just scolded me because I didn't wanted to let them in."

Kyle : "I heard Santosh invited them."

Daniel : "Well then, I guess he shot himself on the foot. Those idiots still performing?"

Amirul : "Yes, they are still performing and I think some PIBG members that were inside didn't like the way then perform."

Kyle : "They are like acting all big on the stage, monkeying around. There are now taking alot of stage time. Suppose to be Anita's drama now, but after 20 minutes later, still talking shit on the stage!!"

Daniel : "Diu, can we shoo them off the stage?"

Manpreet : "Look guys, now we are in serious trouble ok. I think that Abdul Aziz will shoot us for inviting those monkeys, wasting their time, bore the students and taking control over the show. This is suppose to be Cultural Night, not another "8 Mile" set. I surrender lah, me and Daniel really don't know that they are performing. Serious."

Went back to the hall, they were still crapping on stage. Not surprised that Kent and his buddies don't like their show.

Kent : "Eh, Daniel, what the fuck are they doing on stage?"

Daniel : "You think I want to let them in to perform ah? One of those fuckers scolded me because I didn't know that they were performing."

Kent : "You ok? Chill lah...relax."

Daniel : " I wish, I'm having one-sided headache now. Try to enjoy the show. Oh yeah, just now Cik Chan scolded me and my EYE team for bringing this Thomas guy. You know him?"

Kent : "Nope, wah in deep shit loh you all?"

Daniel : "Yup, and Ming King was driving around the school area. Can you do me a favour?Call him to go away."

Kent : "Ok."

Daniel : "Try to enjoy the show."

There were students walking in and out like its none of their business. I actually wanted to shout to them to get back inside the school hall. I went to the back hall, trying to calm myself down, but I don't know why I brokedown emotionally. I shouldn't complain because Santosh is more pressured than me. It's his event, and its being screwed up now.

Rusty Grills were rusting the event. And I don't like it, so does Kyle. He wanted to storm to the stage and ask them to leave, Amirul managed to cool him down. Those idiots were treating the show like a talk show.

No, I don't want any Oprah wanabies right now. Do what you gotta do, rap and go away. For half and hour, the students have to suffer through Rusty Grills rusty, ametuer, lacksture performance.

Finally, Rusty Grills rusted to dust. After finish performing, they thought they could still hang around and create more problems for us. Mr Chee had ordered us to give those outside performers a time limit until 6 :45 p.m to leave school.

They were still in school after 6 :45 p.m. We kindly asked them to leave, they finally did. Well, they went out of school, started to dance on top of their Kembara like monkeys. Solomon then joined them and started to laugh with them. Jit Chern and Kyle then strictly asked them to leave immidiately.

Cik Chan scolded us again for that. Cheng Heng was worried that those Indians would call their gangs to come and start fight.

Soon, the event started to run smoothly. The drama managed to lighten up the mood. Then there was Ronald, Melissa and Kuan Yoke singing on stage. I don't know what song they sang, but it was way better than what Rusty Grills have to offer. Then, the Malays had their own performance, shuffle.

Maxwell, he was first to perform solo. Crowd started to cheerr for him, but he got nervous. Chill man, performing in front of such a large crowd ain't easy. At least he got balls to do it solo. Then, switch song, Maxwell and gang then only really started to shuffle well.

Well done, better than Rusty Grills.

Then, it was the last and most anticipated performance. Khairi's dance with Seet and Harvey. They used the remix version of Timbaland's "Bounce" featuring Justin Timberlake and Missy Elliott (Which was miles better than Rusty Grill's songs.). I got the video of it, if anybody wants it, message me at my chatbox.

There were a few shows I missed due to my duties. The Merdeka dance, the 80's dance, drama and thank God I missed Rusty Grill's show. Don't buy their CDs. I don't even wanna see their YouTube video.

After the event finished, everyone said their goodbyes and wished each other Happy Holidays. One week of rest, thank you God.

Helped Santosh to keep back the chairs. The EYE members cleaned up the hall in good condition. I have to thank Wilfred and Hafizi for helping out on the sound system. Without their help, the event wouldn't go well.

Santosh invited me to follow him and his gang for mamak. I turned down the offer.

Melissa's mum fetched me and Kerrie to Lesuire Mall. We both ate at Wong Kok. Bumped into Joshua Leong and his buddies. Cheng Heng and Tom was there too. Since I'm having sore throat, I didn't ate any fried food. Had baked spagetti with Twin Sauce and Ice Lemon Tea. Opps....iced lemon tea?

Went back home, told my parents about the event. They were glad that I was alright after my confrontation with those so-called rappers. As long I came back safe.

If you were to ask me to rate the event 1 to 10 , I would say 5.5. It could have been better. It could have been worst.

Rate Rusty Girls....opps...Rusty Grills performance, fine, kesian you all. 3/10.

Why waste my time?

Today after assembly, Tai Wei Shan wanted to see all of the prefects. Assembly wasn't even close to quiet.

So, as usual, got lectured by Mr. Chee. Ok, Mr. Chee is good enough to lecture us, but as Mr Chew masuk campur, it got even worse.

Today was also Form 3's last day of their trials. Lecturing started at 8 a.m. Mr. Chee wasn't happy with our prefect's appearence, especially the hair. My hair was long enough to be so obvious. Wanted to keep my hair long until the last day of the holiday. So, Mr. Chee asked me to cut my hair today, which I did.

Then, Mr. Chew caught Fan Guo Chong and Liew San Min because of their hair. Lectured all of the prefects again. Wanted to cut their hair, but let Mr. Chee decide. Mr. Chee kindly gave them a day's time to cut it. Thank you very much.

Wan Zhuin was doing revision for her History subject. From the look of her face, she was more worry than any of the prefect's appearence. Mr. Chew caught her, lectured her in front of us, say she was rude to him.

Rude to you? Hello, I don't know about you, but when a prefect or a student have 30 minutes to go before exam started, I guess he/she will take out a book and study for the last time for the day. Better than talking to each other huh?

Oh, like kena lecturing wasn't bad anough, he took his own sweet time to lecture us. 8 40 a.m, still wanna crap in front of us. Pavetra, Kiru's sister, raised her hand up and asked Mr. Chew to let the Form 3 prefects to go.

Guess what? Mr. Chew lectured her in front of us for being rude. I then voiced out...
"Mr. Chew please let them go lah!!! They got exams!!! Lecture them another time."

No, he don't wanna listen.

Oh great, asking you to not waste time and let them go back to their class for their exams was a bad idea? Oh puhlezzz....

Until 8:45 a.m, Tai Wei Shan lectured us and finally let us go. Solomon was very very pissed.

Me or you?

Look, I am basically tired of you all students hating on us prefects. When you're in the wrong, admit it for God's sake. When you're in the right, we wouldn't be so fucking stupid enough to catch you.

Let's have a little situation here. Imagine, I prefect, you student. We are in a canteen. After you finish eating your food, your responsibility is to put your plate in to the prepared waste bin. But what happens when you don't do that? I would have to politely ordered you to do what you are suppose to do. But....what happens if you don't want to and you walked away? I would have to approached you and ask you in a strict way to put the plate in to the prepared waste bin.

But you scolded me, I jotted down your name and send it to Mr. Chee. Then you'll hate me and wish that one day you'll seek revenge on me. After kena rotan, you'll wish that I was dead.

Now tell me? Who's in the wrong? Me or you?


Second situation. Assembly, I prefect, you student. You're suppose to be quiet and read a book during assembly and I am suppose to make sure that the assembly is quiet. So you talked quite loudly, and I gave you a warning. Second time you talked again, I gave you a strict warning. Third time I saw you with my own eyes you talk, I sent you to the disciplinary zone. You, student, with the normal "I never talk lah, he talk to me first." bullshit excuse, I sent you to the disciplinary zone. As you stood up angrily, mumbling foul languages to me softly and walked to that zone for talkative students during assembly.

So while you were lectured by Mr Chee, I told him that you uttered foul language to me. Guess what, 2 strokes of rotan to your ass. After that 'torturer', you started a hatred on me. Oh la la, another student hate me again.

So tell me, who's in the wrong? Me or you?


Look, students. You have to understand that being a prefect is very very hard. Our duties would be damn easier if you students would kindly listen to our instructions. We prefects would be damn happy too.

Resign loh..
Like the teachers would be so keen to let any prefects resign.

I hope you all think about this, thank you.

Lectured again and again and again

Tai Wei Shan, had to lecture us again and again and again to remind us to keep the assembly quiet for at least 20 minutes.

But NOOOOO........you students couldn't shut the f*beep* up?

Ohh.....I now have a grudge on you students ah?

Forgive me loh, can ah?

ExxonMobil Sales Week

ExxonMobil had a EYE Sales week at their own headquarters near KLCC. I was selected to go for Thursday's event.

So as usual, mum dropped me at Tom's place, just like last time. Tom's dad decided to stop us at Tun Razak LRT station. Meet up with Cheng Heng. Wei Jian will be waiting at Jalan Melaka for us for breakfast.

Reached at ExxonMobil's HQ at 7:55 a.m. Wanted to go early to prepare the stall.

We had to go to our adviser's office to get our stuffs. And what a view....


Mind you that these aren't rubbish.


Cheng Heng, fascinated by the plant.











Yeah....wanna know one of Pearl Star Enterprise's products that we sold last Thursday?

Kerepek, oily fattening kerepek.


Its so oily, you can see oil sticking on the plastic. Boy, kerepek is sure healthy.


Don't worry, we won't be selling just one pack only, what about a bag of 'healthy' kerepeks for the workers of ExxonMobil? Hmm....tasty.


Sri Ayu berlagak.


Tom and Cheng Heng chillin'

As we got down from the 23rd floor to lobby by cargo lift, we immediately arranged our products. From brooches to books to pendrives and shirts fresh from the factory.

Ok, for the whole day, we were very very very worked out. I and, Azila and Tom had to stand infront of the main entrance to attract people to buy our products. In fact, I have to stand next to Damansara's EYE team, Trixxon. Oh Lord, their promoters are really frickin' annoying.

The best part was, I get to wear a sandwich cardboard over me. How cool was that?

Oh yeah, I used all of my right hand fingers to hang the Thumbelina dolls. So, my right hand fingers were numb for 2 hours.

11 a.m to 12 :30 p.m was the so called 'rush hour'. I thought it would be easy to lure them to our booth, but I was so wrong.

The workers were in a hurry for their lunch and tea time. As all of the workers walk to the entrance door, I and Tom had to be as annoying as Trixxon's promoter.

"Hello sir, aren't these dolls cute? Head on down to our stall, right over there. Thank You."

"1 for RM4 , 3 for RM 10. Get these dolls now before its too late."

"Miss, get these Thumbelina dolls for your friends and family. You won't get them anywhere in Malaysia."

Yeah, one of the many scripted lines I used for attracting customers.

At least Wei Jian was as hardworking as us. He did manage to get customers buying peanuts and kerepeks.

We only had 3 minutes of curi-curi breaks before we resume our work.





That's how I and Tom hung the Thumbelinas on our fingers.


Not even one bought a Thumbelina doll, so I have to cut the price.


You happy? I not.

After an unhappy Maccaroni Boy cut down the price of the Thumbelina Dolls, finally got people started to buy. Phew...


Sri Ayu and Azila.

2 p.m and everyone was hungry. So Cheng Heng, Tom and I decided to go off to KLCC to buy back KFC. Wei Jian couldn't take along, Cik Chan wanted him to help out in the stall.


My Maccaroni senses and tinggling.....its gonna rain.

After buying back a bucket of 21 fried chickens, we were stuck in KLCC because of the rain. So the 3 of us have to use the long way back to ExxonMobil. We had to walk through the KL Converntion Centre, then turn right to Traders Hotel, and run under the rain to ExxonMobil HQ.

That was Cheng Heng's idea.


While walking through the convention centre's corridor, I and Tom were forced to listen to Cheng Heng and his girlfriend's conversation. Cheesy conversation, not lovely at all.

Tom and I felt like vomiting.



Back at ExxonMobil's HQ all wet. The teachers and us then rushed to eat KFC. I told Cheng Heng to buy 15 chickens, but he wants 21. Where did we get the money from? Adviser gave.

I noticed that Exxonmobil's HQ has a wall fountain.



But you don't know how clean it is.


One thing I like about ExxonMobil's HQ is the security doors for the employers and employees.

After 4 p.m there is still people last-minute buying stuffs from us.







Cheng Heng and his Seri Ampang EYE friend.



Ever wondered how rusty is Cik Chan's car?

I was helping Cik Chan carrying the stocks into her car, her rusty ol' car. As I put in the stocks of our products in, my mouth terkena her rusty roof. Eeeeyewwww!!!

Fuck, tasted like rust metal.

Walked around in KLCC.....saw the Twin Towels made up by Lego bricks.


Then rushed to Masjid Jamek LRT Station.



Damn the rush hour. Damn.

When we were at Jalan Melaka's LRT Station, we lost Cheng Heng and Tom. So I and Wei Jian had to be seperated by them. While in the train, we were so tired, we fell asleep until we hopped off at Miharja. We were forced to walk to the other side and took the train to Chan Sow Lin, switch to the Tun Razak train again. It wasted us nearly an hour time.

I was late for tuition, well, I missed tuition.

Wei Jian and I joined Kyle and Santosh for dinner at Indian Hero.

And was shocked to see Santosh's handphone. So creative.

PAS Youth wants Avril show canceled


PETALING JAYA: Federal Territory PAS Youth wants the scheduled Avril Lavigne concert scheduled here on Aug 29 to be cancelled.

Its chief Kamaruzaman Mohamed handed over a memorandum to Kuala Lumpur Datuk Bandar Datuk Hakim Borhan and the Culture, Arts and Heritage Ministry yesterday.

DBKL licensing and enforcement division secretary Shukran Ibrahim said the memorandum would be forwarded to the committee concerned.

(The Star online)


Boy oh boy oh boy, how can Malaysia be a developed country when they wanted to ban a Canadian punk concert. You wanna know why?

Asia-Pacific News

Malaysia's hardline Islamists want ban of Avril Lavigne concert

Aug 6, 2008, 3:35 GMT

Kuala Lumpur - The youth wing of Malaysia's hard line opposition Islamic party Wednesday called for banning a concert by Canadian pop star Avril Lavigne later this month, saying the singer's 'prancing' performances were not suitable for locals.

The 23-year-old singer is scheduled to hold a concert, her first in the Muslim-majority nation, in the capital Kuala Lumpur on August 29. However, the opposition Parti Islam SeMalaysia (PAS) youth wing slammed the organizers for approving the show, saying the young pop-punk star's loud shows were not in line with local culture.

'This show is not suitable for our local culture,' said Herman Samsudeen, the wing's information chief.

'Our independence month should be marked by respect ... and not remembered by inviting the offsprings of colonists who will teach our children how to become modern monkeys, prancing around without any purpose,' he said in a statement.

Malaysia celebrates it's 51st year of independence of Britain on August 31.

'Approving this concert is a great insult,' the statement said. Herman said the party would send an official protest note to the government to call for canceling the show. A party official declined to comment, as Lavigne holds Canadian nationality, saying only that Western influences in general were 'damaging' to local culture.

PAS, which has been in control of the northeastern state of Kelantan since 1990, has imposed strict religious laws dictating dress and all forms of entertainment in the state. Among others, women entertainers are not allowed to perform in public, and men and women have to sit separately in cinemas.


the singer's 'prancing' performances were not suitable for locals.
Hmmm....what will Avril do? Strip and monkey around?

the young pop-punk star's loud shows were not in line with local culture.
Tai lou, if concert not loud, then what is it? Rock is suppose to be loud and energetic, hookay?

'This show is not suitable for our local culture,' said Herman Samsudeen, the wing's information chief.
Well, not suitable for you mah. Just because this show is not suitable for you, doesn't mean that KL people (Note: Open minded people, unlike you) will also have to suffer like you all?

'Our independence month should be marked by respect ... and not remembered by inviting the offsprings of colonists who will teach our children how to become modern monkeys, prancing around without any purpose,' he said in a statement.
I bet the Canadian government will so not have a "Happy Ending" with our country already.

'Approving this concert is a great insult,' the statement said.
Gosh, since its the Patriotic Month, can't we all enjoy it?

that Western influences in general were 'damaging' to local culture.
What about Mat Rempits? Aren't they also 'damaging' our country's image?

Anyway, I'm so not surprise if any of your PAS controlled area had youths listening to Avril Lavigne's songs. In fact, I hope that PAS continues to ban every single concert....not. Go on, continue to ban as the world will see Malaysia as a narrow minded country.

Avril will be singing...

"Hey hey you you,
why you ban my concert?
No way no way!!
I think you should f*beep* off
Hey hey you you
Why you ban my concert?"

Beyonce was supposed to perform last year. But she canceled it.

Dungdut singer Inul Daratista from Indonesia was suppose to perform here this year, but you all baned her because her acts were 'erotic'??

Hookay.....

But anyway, I pitty Selangor being ruled by PAS. And if PAS ruled KL, boys and girls have to sit seperately in cinemas. Good concept. Bravo
