Faham Tuduhan? Ngaku tuduhan?

Today went on a field trip to the parliament. Had this fckin bus-equivalent of sea-sickness. Never had a good time on bus and even when i stepped on ground. But was ok after a while la.

The ever so famous building, used to be carved on the back of all coins.
Contrary to common belief, this is NOT the House of Representatives. I dunno wut it is, but the House of Representatives is another building that had only 2 floors.

At the canteen met this MP from Kota Bharu. Didn't know he was an MP until some of the upper sixes chatted wit him. Then he started giving out name cards. I got one and asked him to autograph it. How kind for him to do it for us.

Who says PAS MPs are outdated? YB Kota Bharu uses an iPhone!

So since picture taking is strictly prohibited (cellphones, cameras and all electronics were taken away and only returned upon leaving), pictures from the parliament is very limited.

I got a picture of the traffic directly below us at the place where we got down, though.

I saw Anwar coming around 10 minutes after we came in. I saw Tony Pua coming few minutes after Anwar came in. I saw Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim (MB of Selangor) chatting wit Anwar and having himself nodding rather vigorously. I saw Mukhriz coming in around 30 minutes into the proceeding, with a rather humble looking backpack. He def look better in real life. Saw and heard Najib. He talked a bit then left the room. Same goes wit Syed Hamid. Saw Nazri laying his head on the cozy chair for a while. Saw Wee Ka Siong, he kept on coming in and out of the room.

Saw a few MPs playing wit their phones while someone else was talkin. A few was readin the day's newspaper. Most of them couldn't speak out loud, except for a few from the Opposition. Could never get wut the government was trying to present but apparently the House had an idea of wut they are talkin about. All the others could manage was a few loud coughs that we thought it was some kind of mocking act against the one who was speaking.

Yup, the one talkin the clearest was MP Batu Gajah Fong Po Kuan. Too bad she really need to improve on pronouncing BM words like they should be. Aiks never got to hear Anwar speak in the House.

Some technical error got us kicked out of the parliament. So we headed off to the National Monument. Picture takin...


Apparently there were 2 Varyam Singh's. Respect to both of them (or him).

Some lotus imspired fountain.

And we came to the actual monument itself.

Beside it is a name that almost never got noticed. The sculptor, of coz.

This is another shot of the rifle pointing at the camera. Yeng ah!

After lunch we headed off to the Kuala Lumpur Court Complex.

Decorating the pillars are banners of "Buat Kerja". Saw this in the newspapers before.

Nearby is this place that has a 'London Bridge' design. Teresa if yer readin this, sorry yea for the things I said earlier!

This frog deserved some attention. It was hiding from the scorching sun.

The reception area.

We got to follow a criminal court proceeding. It was kinda late in the day and most proceedings were over. Got to this one. Some drug addict got convicted la.

There's this scary moment where the charges were read to the accused. All his charges were clear and definitive. All the accused was able to do was to admit to the charges and wait for prosecution. Damn in front of justice there's really nothing that comes in between. But of course in some cases we know that interference is juz another part of the game.

The whole hearing was done in 3 minutes flat. Case done and apparently it was the last case of the day for the court. Damn... We waited for 30 minutes under the hot sun and only got to follow 3 minutes of proceeding.

Returned to skool and had some little project of our own:

It's amazing how my angle of shooting made everyone look like they jumped so high.
