BOOKED

under difference circumstances it would be the funniest piece of writing i ever read for a long time. but in all conscience nobody should make any disparaging comments knowing that this was written by poor amina (altantuya) the mongolian beauty just a day before she was blown to bits just about half an hour's drive from my home. all the same to think that (with that kind of english proficiency) she reportedly acted as a translator to very important people involved with very important business dealings which may or may not have anything to do with malaysian government , one just wonder...goes to show that long legs and good looks do make a difference .

to say that this razak baginda -amina saga is interesting is an understatement and my hope is that some local writers would do justice and write a proper book on the sad affair once everything settles down...but in reality the likelihood of that to happen is just about nil.

oh yes, we may probably get a hundred page or so superficial hack job which i would be in the least bit interested in, or quite possibly none at all, for our country is not a nation of writers...oh yes, we have journalists aplenty but they rather suck the proverbial political masters' dicks and write some hagiographies on some retarded politicians than write real books that delve deep into the dark side of the nation's pulse...or they just write some wimpy poems that nobody in the least bit interested to read....ah well, may be that is easier...

but such a pity, the notorious and intriguing mona fandey case , bentong kali, etc... we have our good share of all kinds of diabolical mayhems , historic events , evil characters serial killers , rapists but all came and gone without anybody writing anything substantial so that we can truly understand our national psyche better ....oh yes recently we did get a small book "may 13" purportedly about 'declassified documents on the malaysian riots of 1969 by one hua kia seong but what a pitiful book it was... devoid of any literary merit whatsoever and certainly did not explain anything new or try to make us understand why my race the malays which are the most docile creatures on earth by nature became so murderous...

this pitiful book incidently reminded me of that review of the film da vinci code in the new yorker (may 29 , 2006) which i picked at random and read last night .

it has this to say about that dan brown's book:

...if a person of sound mind begins reading the book at ten o'clock in the morning, at what time will he or she come to the realization that it is unmitigated junk? The answer in my case was 10:00:03, shortly after i read the opening sentence...


at another place it was written thus...

Should we mind that forty million readers-or, to use the technical term "lemmings" - have followed one another over the cliff of this long and laughable text?...

well, in my case it took me about five minutes to decide that "may 13" is not to my liking but yes there are a lot of lemmings judging by how well this book is selling...

and now that another harry bloody potter of deathly swallow or some such thing is coming out soon , perfectly sane adult women (for only women and little kids read this tripe ) will be transformed to lemmings and followed one another over the cliff of this long and laughable text...

but i digressed and misbehaved again...
coming back to the report...
here it is verbatim...but please do not laugh. Respect the dead....

Altantuya claimed she would be killed by Razak, witness tells court

Thestar.com.my 4 July 2007

The following is the report in verbatim:

I told all story. I got friend here to help me but he said I need to be carefull because his rich man. Can everything do to me. Now he could easyly kill me or put to jail and says I did write letters. I blackmailed him. So all proofness on my case can ask from embassy in Honk Kong or hotel where I stay.

Its hotel Malaya. One of the Indian man is Suraj, another is Bala. They saying they protect the boss. If they do job why they follow me and knocking my door at 5am at morning and acting like friend.

Why they asking me to pay money and asking to marry that Indian guy.

They follow me from my hotel outside to any place I go. If they protect the boss why they saying to my pir that they can kill me?

That Indian guy told me Mr Razak is rich man, he knows many people here so can easyly put me to jail. They say Malaysia is different from Mongolia and said they know people in police so can easy get me to jail.

If Malaysia law goes like that I cant complane. But true is I didnt nothing to him. Im just normal girl trying to meet my lover who lied to me and promised many things but now want to put me to jail or kill...

If I made mistake Ill never do again. But if something happened to me please check that person.”
