Winds of Change

The winds of change has brought the monsoon season to Malaysia and claimed another 3 lives of UNITAR undergraduates. The tragedy was a week apart from the earlier one when the three were drowned after been swept by strong current at the Batu Berangkai waterfall in Kampar.

The winds of change also affected the world season when Beijing, Inner Mongolia and the provinces of Jilin and Liaoning welcomed the first sighting of snow, the earliest in a decade.

The winds of change also generated new waves of thinking for the Trengganu state government. Earlier, they became the nation spotlight with the proposals of 1 toilet and free second honeymoon for the problematic couples.

This time round, they managed to identify the culprits for the marriage failures. The factors were body odour, humdrum sex and boring pyjamas.

To overcome the problems, they had come up with list of do's. One was to invite cosmetic firms to introduce exotic and sensous fragrances that can arouse sexual desire and the next move was to encourage couples to bathe together.

In one statement, Muhammad Ramli Nuh, the deputy chairman of State Religious and Information Committee mentioned that he knew a couple splitted because the spouse smelled of fish crackers.

Hey, wait a minute...fish crackers...are this referring to the keropok leko? Oh dear, my kids love this keropok leko so much and I have to replenish the stock everytime I patronise the pasar tani. Believe that many others share the same taste of buds...

Well, I don't mean to crack a joke here...but body odour (BO) is something that is hard to tolerate.

My father used to car pool with his colleagues and one of them was a single lady. She was nice looking except that she had BO. My father had a hard time cracking his head how to inform the lady by not hurting her...

There was another incident whereby my ex-officemates were talking behind the BO person. They could not tolerate the smell especially during office hours within the air condition environment.

Nevertheless, will perfume resolve the BO. As far as I know, perfume will react with body chemicals and reproduce a different smell from its original state. So, the best thing is to teach people with BO about hygenic and cleanliness. Also, check their body toxic level as normally the body will emit toxic(which produce bad smell) through sweating.

Maybe the BO individuals need to go for detoxyfication process.
