PM not contesting, to quit in March
KUALA LUMPUR, WED:
Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi will not defend his post as UMNO president at the party’s election in March.
Abdullah made the announcement at the Barisan Nasional Supreme Council meeting. He had earlier briefed the Cabinet of his decision.
The meeting, which started at 3.40pm, was attended by nearly all the leaders of the 13 component parties. Under the BN system, the Umno president is also the prime minister and BN chairman.
A smart move. Hope the successor will waste no time in salvaging our declining economy, state of education and unity...

The last time I set foot in Actors Studio Bangsar was exactly 5 years ago, for this play when my then other half, his brother and a few more friendly faces were involved in its production. Yup, October 2003...such a long time ago eh?
Co-incidentally enough, the actor who played Panjang in that play was also among the audience in Gamarjobat last night. Anyway, I am glad that a good friend asked me along to the show...I had such a good laugh and had a new set of good memories of the place too. Maybe I will be back there again for another play before the venue closes down in February 2009...
------------------------
They've been friends for years. There used to be only 3 of them, until another member came along 2 years ago and the clique became complete. They hold regular night outs and these meet-ups are always filled with sarcastic (yet friendly) banters and loud laughters. It's the crude frankness they commonly share that make them clicked very well together.
But good things can't last forever.
Two will sooner or later go off to Down Under and the Middle East for greener pasture while another will hopefully tie the knot next year. And since he is also planning to come out of his 'retirement' to rejoin the national squad again in time for next year's SEA Games, he'll be as busy as ever. The one remaining.... well, she knows what she needs to do but hasn't got the guts to take that BIG step yet. Soon hopefully..
Thank you for the wonderful years guys!
