Screenplay 101, never use the same plot in a sequel. Even in TV series, CSI, X-Files, etc. will not use the same plot in two episodes for a few reasons:
1. It reflects badly on the talent of the screenplay writer, if there’s any.
2. The audience will definitely be really disappointed. Even the installment of the Sodomy saga was extremely poorly written. People now watch CSI, Heroes, Lost, Prison Break, and many more TV series. Gerak Khas or similar TV series plots are things in the past.
3. Ever heard a story called “The Boy Who Cried Wolf”. Oh p…lease. The moral of the story is: “Nobody believes a liar…even when he is telling the truth!” but we are not sure if there’s any truth in the screenplay… wait a minute… it’s a “screenplay” right?
“Malaysia, to my mind, has to represent a few socio-economic agendas very strongly and passionately if we aim to restructure perceptions and garner support from all around.

Oh Pak Lah, you really got me now
You got me so I can’t sleep at night
You really got me
You really got me
You really got me
Please, don’t ever let me be
I don’t wanna be by your side
Please, don’t ever let me be
I don’t wanna be by your side
Pak Lah, you really got me now
Suddenly the mighty dragon is so humble about their capabilities… What happen to the everything boleh spirit?

Opposition No. 2 faces treason charge in Zimbabwe
HARARE, Zimbabwe - President Robert Mugabe’s regime struck at the opposition leadership Thursday only two weeks before Zimbabwe’s presidential runoff election, twice detaining his challenger and jailing the No. 2 opposition official to face treason charges.
The U.S. ambassador, meanwhile, said that 20 tons of American food aid heading to impoverished Zimbabwean children had been seized by authorities last week and given to Mugabe supporters at a rally.
Morgan Tsvangirai, who led the opening round of presidential voting 2 1/2 months ago and faces the increasingly autocratic Mugabe in a June 27 runoff, was stopped at a roadblock in the south and held at a police station for about two hours, his party said.
Flip-flop update: Surprise, surprise! the proposal will not be implemented. Another example of the incompetent idiots who run the country without thinking through the consequences of policy decisions.
