The AirAsia flight QZ8501 had not been cleared by the Indonesian authority to fly the Surabaya-Singapore route last Sunday. Perhaps Tan Sri Tony could clarify this matter.

If the flight is ‘not authorised’, then will it complicate the insurance claim process?

Umno did not object to the bangang label, so MCMC will not take action on you.

Accoding to a report on TheMalaysianInsider.com, the sheer volume of flights in the skies over Southeast Asia is putting pressure on outdated air traffic control and on pilots to take risky unilateral action in crises such as that possibly faced by AirAsia flight QZ8501.

Pilots who have flown the Indonesia to Singapore route say it’s not unusual for delays to requests to increase altitude to avoid bad weather – and for requests to eventually be rejected due to the number of other planes in the area.

While the PM and his minister is down in the field monitoring and helping in the flood with rescue and aids we have DAP goons from Tony Pua, Liew, Sivarasa and a host of others complaining complaining complaining this and that. And Kee, the best you can do is to call those not on your sides bodoh. You don`t have to reply to people like us because you have nothing constructive and with reason to rebut with the exception of calling others bodoh.

And he was supposed to migrate one country nearer to our own with a population consisting mostly of his own kind. I too was thinking why he is still here.

Probably some of the blog followers may have noticed that there had previously been a few versions of *Supercally******** (all with the same light blue icon), but just for curiosity, how is iSupercally identified to the Gerakan K?

One reader has mentioned that Anil likes these bangang fellows to ‘cetus kontroversi’ in order for more comments to gain more publicity for this blog. Stupid is allowed but not celaka!

God, the Source of All created everything for a reason, his reason!!! LOVE, BEAUTY, ABUNDANCE… he loves all his creations, he shows beauty in every thing, every where on Earth and in the cosmos.

The world is in turbulence. For the past many years we have natural and others calamities like flood, earthquake, plane crash and disappearance, ship burnt and sunk, war and human, atrocities etc etc in almost every country in the world. Don`t put the blame on God. It is our doing in the quest for development of jobs, houses, material gain and like what Tunglang said Bing Chui. Penang is one good example. Look at botak hill and its becoming bigger despite the heavy rainfall that could have covered up the areas with bushes and trees but its still there. In… Read more »

Do not forget to mention those botak hills in Cameron Highlands that have caused massive and fatal flooding. This incident may have impact on the political fortune of that MIC chief and Pahang MB.
