Technorati tags: Chinese New Year, Politics, Selangor, Pakatan Rakyat, Anwar Ibrahim, Kajang First off, Walski wishes all Malaysians Gong Xi Fa Cai. Yes, ALL Malaysians. None of this "to those who celebrate it" nonsense. Because ALL Malaysians should be celebrating it. That's the Malaysian way. Or at...
Technorati tags: Malaysia, New Year, 2014 Happy New Year 2014 netizens! Rumor has it that this is going to be a tough year. And when times get tough, sometimes we have to take tough measures. Most of all, hang in there, and don't give up the good fight. Or at least that's what Walski told himself...
Technorati tags: Update, We Are Still Alive, Facebook, Commentary You're probably surprised to see something posted here for a change. But there's a good reason for this posting. Walski is humbled by the fact that myAsylum has been included in the blog link section of Fake Malaysia News, a local Onion-like...
Technorati tags: GE13, Post-Election Thoughts, Discontent Well, it’s been just over a week since GE13. The net result: BN regains power at the Federal Government level, albeit with a reduced seat majority, and losing the popular vote by a good 3 percentage points. It would have been an acceptable...
Technorati tags: GE13, General Elections, Malaysia, FAQ Finally, after months of speculation and guessing games, we’re gonna have a general election. The thirteenth in our history since independence, and one that seems, somehow, to be different from the other twelve we’ve had so far. Why different? It...
Technorati tags: PSY, Kanna PSY, Chinese New Year, BN Open House, Strategic Fail Even the most ardent of hip-hop/rap haters will know who PSY is. The Korean rapper became an overnight sensation worldwide with his Gangnam Style song and video, which had also spawned countless parodies the world over. And...
Technorati tags: Happy New Year, 2013, Donovan, Season of the Which Happy New Year 2013! If this new year were to have been tag-lined by Jon Stewart, he'd probably have called it Indecision 2013. Walski, on the other hand, thinks that this year is The Season of the "Which". We pretty much spent a good...
Technorati tags: Walski69, Identity, Revelation, Pseudonymous In a few hours' time we'll be ushering in a new year. To say the least, it's been an interesting 12 months. On a personal level, 2012 has been challenging for many reasons. High on the list would be his change of vocation, from the world of...
Technorati tags: Christmas, Peace, Harmony, Celebration And a very very Merry Christmas! Although there have been those who would rather we focused on the differences between us, Walski chooses to embrace instead the overwhelming commonalities that bind us. To quote the famous sage Jalal ad-Dīn...
Technorati tags: Vitreous Humor, Eye Surgery, Post Op You're probably wondering about now - what the heck is FURE? Well, let Walski tell you right off the bat: it's another one of those acronyms he made up. And it stands for F*cked Up Right Eye. What Walski was seeing out of the FURE is something like...
Technorati tags: Blog Changes, Stop 114A, Popup Removal, Humanity Walski has made a decision to retire the Stop 114A Pop-up. For those who have been coming here with some regularity - and not likely the target audience for the pop-up anyway - you're probably have gotten quite tired of it. Like most good...
Technorati tags: Update, Walski, Life Yes, it's been another very long absence from blogging for Walski. There are many reasons for this, and he figured that it was high time something got posted to partially explain why. If for no other reason, to let you folks know that Walski is still very much alive.
Technorati tags: Rant, Rot, State Of The Nation, The Nation's In A State In the quiet shadows, Walski has been following what’s become of this nation of once great potential. And suffice it to say, what he’s observed is not pleasing one single bit. Disquiet in the quiet, so to speak. On...
Technorati tags: Humor, Eid, Hari Raya, Janji Diketupati This should have been posted a couple of days ago on Sunday, but due to circumstances beyond Walsk’s control, here it is, two days late… From all of us here at myAsylum, Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri 1433H. And what better way to wish...
Technorati tags: CIJ, August 14 Internet Blackout, Evidence Act, Amendment 114A It may not have sunk in yet for many who participated, but yesterday’s Internet Blackout Day was a significant victory. And if for no other reason, it’s because of this: PM Najib's momentous tweet We, the...

Technorati tags: Poll Position, Opinion Poll, Censorship, Suppression Of Thought, Irshad Manji, Book Banning Unless you’ve been living under a rock without Internet, you would have heard by now the problems that ZI Publications has had with the “law”… Not civil law, but Selangor Syariah law.
Technorati tags: Religion, Islam, Irshad Manji, Compulsion, Liberty, Freedom Of Conscience It has been a very, very long while since Walski has written anything related to religion. But recent events have made it necessary for him to do so. In the Quran, there is one basic commandment that is...
Technorati tags: Humor, Top Ten, Egypt, Malaysia, Bersih, Democracy It's no secret that this Top 10 List has been inspired by Marina Mahathir's latest post, and by what senior lawyer Tommy Thomas wrote recently. And despite the no-brainer that Malaysia is not Egypt, certain individuals in...
