Home sweet home after 3 days on the road

Just came home from Malacca after delivering an independent and non-partisan analysis on the current political situation to a seminar organised by a Chinese veterans' association and Parti KeADILan Rakyat. Yesterday evening, a similar function was held in Penang's Chinese Assembly Hall of which I was also invited as an independent and non-partisan analyst.

Earlier on Friday evening, I was in Ipoh's Yuk Choy Old Boys Association attending the function as an observer. The full three-day tour afforded me a long awaited opportunity to break out from my office, library and virtual reality in the cyberspace to refresh street-boy contacts with many organic intellectuals on the ground whose intuitive insights and broad perspectives of the situations are truly valuable to balance against bookish logics and rational reasoning which, if unchecked, often leads to conspiracy theories.
