“Now that you have won the competition, how do you feel?”
The above question is one of the most often asked questions by hosts of reality shows to the winners. It is really an irritating and pointless question to me. Of course, the answer would be, “Oh, I am so happy!” or “I am so excited!” And so on.
Who, in his or her right mind, is going to say, “Oh, I feel bad. I wish I hadn’t won!” Or “This is the saddest day of my life!” Or to that effect! Ha! Ha!

Just about a month ago, Malaysian, Anson Wong was apprehended for trying to smuggle out some wild animals for sale. A lot of hues and cries were made by the authorities and media, that things need to be improved to arrest this type of situation.
So it comes as a surprise and shock to me to read in The Star, today (October 4, 2010), that the Johor state Veterinary Services Department is encouraging and campaigning for people to consume exotic meat! The VSD said the meat includes deer, ostrich, rabbit and turkey. But encouraging the eating of exotic meat may result in poachers going into the jungle. God knows what meat they will come out with!
Animal Rights and Protection groups! Where are you?
