Worthless Malaysian news
From bbc today:
Malaysia outlaw unsuitable name..
"Now names like the Hokkien Chinese Ah Chwar, meaning snake, and Khiow Khoo, meaning hunchback, are being ruled out. So too are Cantonese monikers Chow Tow, meaning smelly head, and Sor Chai, meaning insane. Members of Malaysia's Tamil community will be discouraged from using the likes of Karrupusamy (black god), and Malays from trying names like Woti, meaning sexual intercourse. But the ban extends further. Parents will not be able to call their babies after animals, insects, fruit, vegetables or colours. Numbers are also not allowed, so little James Bonds cannot flaunt their 007 status on their ID cards. "
- its funny but sometimes I'm really insulted with the international news coverage of Malaysia. Do you think it's interesting becuase it's not an issue here, it certainly won't come out in the local news.
