There is one solution to all this crap, if it is ever achieveable ......TOTAL SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE.

Or in this case, total separation of mosque and state.

No offense to anyone out there.

I seriously doubt it, though it would be ideal and reduce any further friction in the state. The issue we have is that there is no separation, it's technically enshrined in the Constitution, so until we decide on a referendum, it won't happen.

Furthermore, it won't happen any time soon, considering the huge support the state religion has at the moment. Just a small squeak from lawyers in KL or non-state religion ministers about addressing issues related to religion and the radicals go out in extreme outroar.

Tech Talk:: I-Touch / I-Phone
The speaker is no longer audible when it's face down or in your pocket? That's troublesome by a longshot. It's just a phone (of the century) that has managed to garner a lot of attention (with good advertising promoting it as a 'hip' phone).

And fragile how? So far, the 'Mocha-proof' a.k.a. drop-proof phones I've managed is the a BlackBerry Pearl, any Sony Ericsson and the old Nokia 3110.

However, it depends what you are looking for. For backpackers, it's a good stop off on a pan-Asian tour and for families it's great to see the flora and fauna but I can't see my teenage son and his friends wanting to spend too long as they are much more attracted to the bright lights of clubbing destinations in Europe.

Too true; I love bright lights and great clubbing destinations, something our dear Kuching sorely lacks. Kuching seems more of a rest and relaxation than a more active urban destination. Culture and peace could be a draw, as a contrast for a happening nightlife and busy social scene.

Kuching Talk:: Building Updates
Oh, my beloved Chambers. Now it's gone, to be replaced by a monstrosity. Elegant architecture of a half-built and problem infested complex, replaced by a huge slab of a building that would overshadow and subvert the dignity of the Old Courthouse and General Post Office.

Home Pets:: where to find parrot in Kuching?
Yes, Borneo Highlands has quite a few actually; Matang has a huge aviary full of them. I was referring to the stuffed variety. Still, it is quite a challenge to find them in their natural habitat. My friend joked once, having lived in Kuching nearly all his life, that Sarawak is the land of 'stuffed' hornbills.
