ONIWAT: RESURRECTED

As many of today's social media influencers would normally say, "Hai gaisss!"

So, I'm back. After such a long hiatus from writing anything, I just suddenly logged into blogger and decided, "Well, why not?".  Can you believe it, my last post was in 2015, which means millennials are jobseekers now. Can you believe that? Two things we never thought we'd ever see being mixed together, millennials and jobs. They're pretty lucky too, because they're probably the least generations who will ever really, really know what are jobs like. Since A.I. will basically takeover just about every type of repetitive labour.

To tell you the truth, there were a lot of things to write about, because a lot of things happened in the world. Some things are inter-galactic events like the launch of the James Webb Telescope, some things involve the advent of cutting edge tech like Elon Musk's Neuralink, some things are catastrophic events like the spread of Covid-19, and some are just that are too close of a call, like the near assassination of Donald Trump. International turmoil showed its ugly head once again, in which Gaza erupted into another new season of its never ending war and Russia invaded Ukraine, to start a brand new one. Kopp was hired as Liverpool FC manager, then Klopp retired from being Liverpool FC manager. Both the Queen and Prince passed away.

Then we have stuff that are closer to home, like the the yet to be completed Pan-Borneo Highway, as it inches its way towards completion. Epic political comeback in the form of PM to prisoner, old PM becomes new PM, and a prisoner to PM. Also, the drama of the widow being cut-off from the family wealth by the evil family members, and even worse, was not allowed back into the house, once her filthy rich husband passed away. Sounds super familiar right? Of course it is, it's the plot of the critically acclaimed Thai Netflix drama "Master of the House". You weren't thinking it was something else, were you? 

But most important of all, even more important than string theory...is the collapse of Manchester United. 

So yeah, lot's of stuff, lot's of content, lot's of people to make fun of in the world - untie your ties, unbutton your cuffs, roll up your sleeves, strap on your rainbow bands, pull your pants down and let's get this party rollin.

Suria Perkasa Hitam a.k.a. Kesatria Baja Hitam a.k.a. Kamen Rider Black

Oni wat sirita tih doik obuok tayang? Many many years ago, when I was still a phlemy kid (budak ingusan la...) there was this one television show that somehow brainwashed the minds of almost every boy in my primary school. I'm gonna need the help of my fellow friends and readers to help me re-trace the steps of this television show, coz to be honest, the storyline was the last thing on my mind when I watched it. Tapi dalam aku cuba mengelak untuk ambil tauk pasal storyline cerita tok...masih juak aku dapat ingat dengan samar-samar apa sedang dilalui hero ya. Cerita nok aku maksudkan adalah....jeng jeng jeng! Nangga video tok dulok...jelmakan semula zaman gembira kanak-kanak anda! Henshin!!! Suria...Perkasa...Hitam!!!!!! Persoalan Minda: Aku heran dengan nama hero tok versi Indon ya - Kesatria Baja Hitam. Apa sebenarnya maksud 'baja' ya? Macam ne nama Kamen Rider Black, boleh ter'translate' kepada Kesatria  Baja Hitam? 'Kesatria' dan 'hitam' ya

Bidayuh Music?!!

Oni wat ya nai muzik Bidoyoh?  Traditional Bidayuh Instruments  One day, I saw a discussion on Facebook between some friends that was about Bidayuh MUSIC. I couldn't remember as to whether the discussion was about holding a competition for Bidayuh music or organizing some sort of Bidayuh music festival. Not so sure which one was it. But let me just ask this question; what exactly do you mean by Bidayuh 'music'?. For all I know, Bidayuh music that I have been exposed since I was a kid was those that involve an entire ensemble of gongs (tawak, kita'ak, pidabat and etc...). So when I read this discussion, it was odd for me to think that we would try to ask our modern songwriters to write new music from this type of ensemble. I was once told by village elders that to each kampung, their musical arrangement for this ensemble is different. So the beats played by the group from Grogo, will definitely differ from those who hail from Singgai, Pedawan or Serian.

Space Cop Gaban a.k.a. Space Ranger Gaban a.k.a Space Sheriff Gavan

Oni wat sirita tih ponai brainwash onak opot bih? Space Cop Gaban!! As it seems futile to avoid talking about the invasion of Japanese henshin (transform) hero series that invaded my innocent childhood, it should be more than proper for me to introduce to all of you the pioneer of all japanese henshin heroes. Of course, Suria Perkasa Hitam was one of a kind...yeah, he didn't have any fancy looking giant robot and has never fought any monster that taller than 10 feet. Jadi hero Jipon nok bakal aku persembahkan tok adalah.... ...Space Cop Gaban!!! Mesti bahagia Lawai baca blog aku tok kelak. Oh, and by the way, mun kitak orang nangga video di atas, tolong-tolonglah perhatikan subtitle theme songnya tok dalam Bahasa Malaysia. Hahahaha. Cerita tok aku rasa sapa lahir selepas 1982 sik kan ingat langsung la rasa-rasanya sebab aku rasa aku nangga tok sebelum aku sekolah rendah gik. Atau time aku darjah 1 kot..sik ingat gilak la...harap-harap ada sapa-sapa tolong ingatkan aku (I
