SUNDAY JOKES - 338

 

Tuaran, Sabah, Malaysia

A police officer responded to a report of a bar-room disturbance.

The “disturbance” turned out to be well over six feet tall and weighed almost 300 pounds. What’s more, he boasted that he could whip the officer and was the “Heavy-weight Boxing Champion of the World.”

Said the policeman, “I’ll bet that you’re also an escape artist too, probably better than Houdini.”
The giant nodded.
“If I had some chains,” the officer continued, “you could show us how strong you really are. But all I’ve got is a set of handcuffs. Why don’t you see just how quickly you can break out of them?”
Once in the cuffs, the man puffed, pulled and jerked for four minutes.
“I can’t get out of these,” the giant growled.
“Are you sure?” the officer asked.
The fellow tried again. “Nope,” he replied. “I can’t do it.”

“In that case,” said the officer, “you’re under arrest!”

 

Steven is shopping for a new motorcycle. He finally finds one for a great price. The motorcycle is missing a seal, though, so whenever it rains Steve has to smear Vaseline over the spot where the seal should be.
Steven’s girlfriend is having him over for dinner to meet her parents one evening. He drives his new motorcycle to his girlfriend’s house.
She is waiting outside for him when he arrives. “No matter what happens at dinner tonight, don’t say a word. Our family had a fight a while ago about doing the dinner dishes. We haven’t done any since… and the first person to speak at dinner has to do them.”
Steven sits down for dinner and soon notices that his girlfriend wasn’t exaggerating. It is just how she described it. Dishes are piled up to the ceiling in the kitchen and nobody is saying a word. Steven decides to have a little fun. He grabs his girlfriend, throws her onto the table and started hugging and kissing her in front of her parents. His girlfriend is a little flustered, her father is obviously livid, and her mother is horrified. Yet, when Steven and his girlfriend resume their places at the dinner table, nobody said a word.
A few minutes later, Steven grabs his girlfriend’s mom, throws her onto the table and does a repeat performance. Now his girlfriend is furious, her father is boiling, and her mother is a little more pleased. But still, there is complete silence at the table.
Suddenly, there is a loud clap of thunder and it starts to rain. Steven remembered his motorcycle outside and so he jumps up and grabs his jar of Vaseline.
With a look of terror in his eyes, the girlfriend’s father backs away from the table and exclaims, “Okay, enough is enough, I’ll do the damn dishes!”

 

A young boy from Penang goes off to college. Halfway through the semester, he has foolishly squandered all his money.
He calls home. “Dad,” he says, “You won’t believe what modern education is developing! They actually have a program here in Kolej Korona that will teach our dog, Coco how to talk!”

“That’s amazing,” his Dad says. “How do we get Coco into that program?” “Just send him down here with RM1,000” the young boy says. “I’ll get him into the course.”

So, his father sends the dog and RM1,000. About two-thirds of the way through the semester, the money again runs out.

The boy calls home. “So, how’s Coco doing, son?” his father asks.

“Awesome, Dad, he’s talking up a storm,” he says, “but you just won’t believe this – they’ve had such good results they have started to teach the animals how to read!”
“Read!?” says his father, “No kidding! How do we get Coco into that program?” “Just send RM2,500, I’ll get him in the class.”
The money promptly arrives. But our hero has a problem. At the end of the year, his father will find out the dog can neither talk, nor read… so he shoots the dog.
When he arrives home at the end of the year, his father is all excited. “Where’s Coco? I just can’t wait to see him read something and talk!”

“Dad,” the boy says, “I have some grim news. Yesterday morning, just before we left to drive home, Coco was in the living room, kicked back in the recliner, reading the Wall Street Journal, like he usually does.

Then he turned to me and asked, “So, is your daddy still messing around with that young lady who lives in town?”

The father exclaimed, “I hope you shot that son of a bitch before he talks to your Mother!”

“I sure did, Dad!”
“That’s my boy!”

The kid went on to be a successful lawyer and then went into politics!!!


An Illinois man left the snow-filled streets of Chicago for a vacation in Florida. His wife was on a business trip and was planning to meet him there the next day.
When he reached his hotel, he decided to send his wife a quick email. Unable to find the scrap of paper on which he had written her email address, he did his best to type it in from memory.
Unfortunately, he missed one letter and his note was directed instead to an elderly preacher’s wife, whose husband had passed away only the day before. When the grieving widow checked her email, she took one look at the monitor, let out a piercing scream and fell to the floor in a dead faint. At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this note on the screen:
DEAREST WIFE: JUST GOT CHECKED IN. EVERYTHING PREPARED FOR YOUR ARRIVAL TOMORROW.

P.S. SURE IS HOT DOWN HERE!!!

 

A nagging wife to her husband: “You don’t care. Something is preying on my mind.”

Husband: “Don’t you panic, it will find nothing!”

 

What wears a cap but doesn’t have a head?

A water bottle!

Fadhlina’s ex-aide lambasts haze critics over school closure chaos: “Where’s the Environment Minister?”

 

A TOP Wanita PKR leader and former aide to Datuk Seri Fadhlina Sidek has come to the Education Minister’s defence amid mounting criticism over confusion surrounding haze-related school closures.

Sangetha Jayakumar, the Wanita PKR secretary, posted on Threads: “You all keep attacking Fadhlina but who is the Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Minister? Where is the Environment Minister?”

Her post came as parents and others questioned the Education Ministry’s (MOE) poor co-ordination over school closure following the worsening haze situation.

Fadhlina who is also the PKR Wanita head has said closures are guided by standard procedures and advice from MetMalaysia (Malaysian Meteorological Department), the Health Ministry (MOH) and the Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Ministry (NRES).

In essence, the Education Ministry (MOE) does not make the decisions in isolation.

Flip-flop haze guidelines

Sangetha’s post redirects scrutiny from Fadhlina to NRES which is responsible for environmental matters. Datuk Seri Arthur Joseph Kurup is the current NRES minister.

He is president of Parti Bersatu Rakyat Sabah (PBRS) which is a component party of Barisan Nasional (BN) and the coalition’s Sabah chairman.

Sangeetha was appointed Special Officer to Fadhlina in 2022 but her name is no longer listed as a staff member in the Minister’s office on the MOE’s website. It is not known when she left MOE.

She’s also the daughter of Xavier Jayakumar, the former water, land and natural resources minister who quit as PKR vice-president in 2021 following corruption investigations into one of his aides. Sangeetha is also a board member of the Port Klang Authority (PKA).

Public criticism of Fadhlina’s handling of haze-related school closures intensified after the Yang di-Pertuan Agong called for schools in haze-affected areas to be closed to protect students’ health.

Critics online accused Fadhlina of incompetence, arguing that MOE’s response had been so slow and confusing that it needed royal intervention.

The criticism grew as the Ministry changed its closure thresholds. On Oct 8, it introduced temporary rules requiring schools to close when the Air Pollutant Index (API) exceeded 180 or remained above 150 for three consecutive days.

Six days later, Fadhlina said MOE was reverting to the existing guideline of closing schools when the API reached 200.

The shifting thresholds and day-to-day decisions left parents, schools and employers uncertain about when closures would be imposed. –  Focus Malaysia

After Oriental Kopi saga, Gardenia, Massimo join fray as yardstick of “Chinese boycott of Malay biz”

 

SOME rightist-minded netizens have interestingly revived the Gardenia-Massimo bread rivalry which goes back to 2011-2013 when the former got framed online as a UMNO crony brand to paint a picture of so-called Chinese racist attitude towards Malay-owned businesses.

A good example will be this post by Threader @mangkuk999 who ticked off the Chinese for defending ‘unpatriotic’ Oriental Kopi in the no-BM-in-menu brouhaha while poking fun at the clarion call to boycott the popular Nanyang-style kopitiam chain as a “typical B40 cry-baby mentality”.

“It’s so funny the Chinese (are) mocking the Malays about boycotting Oriental Kopi which I’m not boycotting since the owner has already apologised,” remarked the self-proclaimed “have no qualm to speak out even from the toilet” poster.

“You think we don’t know the Chinese boycotting Gardenia and buy Massimo because the owner is Malay? Come on lah, don’t talk about boycott. U already did first. We just keep silent [Sic].”

Beyond the two bread brands, @mangkuk999 further observed that the Chinese “also rarely shop at Mydin (Bumiputera-owned hypermarket)”.

“Do you know why? 😏” he jibed. “Just that we the tolerant Malays couldn’t be bothered.”

Like it or not, the claim by @mangkuk999 was verified by one Kak Lala (@sewavellfiresemenyih) who recounted an auntie telling her to “better buy Massimo which pay taxes, taste good, blah blah blah”.

“The auntie must have thought I’m not as smart. But I’m a nurtizen (slang for social media users who support aspects of morality that are considered correct) la,” teased the Vellfire car rental owner.

As a self-proclaimed Chinese footballer revealed that “I buy Gardenia if they’re available and Massimo when they’re out of stock”, another Malay woman recalled a former Chinese officemate “got scolded by another Chinese colleague because she bought Gardinia instead of Massimo”.

To quell suspicion of his biasness towards this Chinese given “many Chinese friends DM (direct message) me denying any boycotting of Gardenia from the Chinese community”, @mangkuk999 who was adamant that “this is an open secret” resorted to attach the following screenshot.

In fact, his post elicited so much attention from rightist-minded netizens till political influencer ahmad abdul nasir (@ghazoff) started wondering if “it’s true that Chinese is boycotting Gardenia and even Petronas (petrol) because both are owned by Malay entities”.

Well, true or otherwise, one commenter reckoned that this is inevitable as “the Buy Chinese First (BCF) mentality has been inculcated from childhood”.

“I had one engaged in a heated exchange on Twitter (on a similar subject) and someone admitted to it. But they get angry when we Buy Muslim First (BMF) as this will affect their market.”

Truth be told

At the end of the day, the Gardenia vs Massimo perception is misplaced given that market share study reveals that Gardenia Bakeries (KL) Sdn Bhd dominates roughly 70% of the market with its bread products enjoying an extensive “route-to-market” distribution network reaching over 23,000 stores, high-volume automated production and strong brand loyalty.

Moreover, Gardenia is not an entirely a Bumiputera entity but a 50/50 joint venture controlled by Singapore-listed food and beverage group QAF Ltd and Padiberas Nasional Bhd (BERNAS) which is linked to tycoon Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhary through Tradewinds (M) Bhd.

On the other hand, The Italian Baker Sdn Bhd which is the parent of Massimo holds an estimated 8% to 10% consumer preference share.

The brand competes through vertical integration, quality-focused branding and competitive pricing backed by parent company FFM Bhd which has since been privatised and delisted from Bursa Malaysia in 2004 after it became a subsidiary of PPB Group Bhd which was founded by Malaysian billionaire Tan Sri Robert Kuok.

As a matter of fact, Massimo boasts a more nationalistic feature given that it is a 100% Malaysian-owned business compared to Gardenia. –  Focus Malaysia

Wawasan mahu Sungai Udang, Bemban, Hamzah beritahu Umno

 Presiden Wawasan berkata partinya berhak pertahan dua kerusi sebagaimana Umno ingin pertahan 21 kerusi disandang.

HAMZAH ZAINUDIN
Presiden Wawasan Hamzah Zainudin, berkata tidak seharusnya hasrat partinya diketepikan hanya kerana ada parti lain turut berminat bertanding di Sungai Udang dan Bemban.
PETALING JAYA:
Wawasan menegaskan hasrat mempertahan DUN Sungai Udang dan Bemban pada PRN Melaka sebagaimana Umno mahu mengekalkan 21 kerusi disandang, kata Presiden Hamzah Zainudin.

Hamzah berkata, menjadi hak Wawasan bertanding dua kerusi itu berdasarkan konsep ‘pertahankan kerusi menang’ pada PRN lalu.

“Kalau konsepnya Umno kata mereka hendak mempertahankan kerusi yang mereka menang, kenapa pula mereka tak nak beri saya (Wawasan) mempertahankan kerusi untuk kami menang?

“Kalau mereka hendak kerusi kami, kami boleh bagi tetapi duduklah sama-sama. Kita bincang kerusi yang sesuai dan kerusi yang boleh menentukan kemenangan sama ada di pihak Perikatan Nasional (PN) ataupun Barisan Nasional (BN),” katanya menurut Utusan Malaysia, di Jasin.

Katanya, Wawasan tidak menolak keperluan menyusun semula pembahagian kerusi, namun rundingan itu perlu mengambil kira kepentingan semua pihak.

DUN Sungai Udang disandang Dr Aleef Yusof, manakala Bemban disandang Dr Yadzil Yaakub, di mana keduanya merupakan calon Bersatu pada PRN Melaka 2021, sebelum menyertai Wawasan.

Hamzah ketika mengulas lanjut, berkata tidak seharusnya hasrat partinya diketepikan hanya kerana terdapat parti lain yang turut berminat bertanding di kawasan dua kawasan tersebut.

“Kalau mereka hendak kerusi mana-mana sekalipun boleh, tetapi saya hendak maklumkan kami hendak pertahankan kerusi kami. Kalau mereka hendak, kenalah duduk dengan kami untuk kita bincangkan kerusi yang sesuai,” katanya. - FMT
