You need Real Player, but if you don't have it, it will be worthwhile to get it, especially if you are Malaysian.
I like the way how the reporter schools Syed Hamid Albar, but her research was not enough to finish him off and let him escape at the end of the interview with some good comeback punches. If only I was the one doing the interview... Hmm... but you guys would probably have to apply for a visiting pass to prison to see me then.

10 Things I Hate About...
This marks the beginning of my "10 Things I Hate About (Something)" series. What inspired this? Well, you are about to see that real soon. In this episode, we are going to discuss the 10 things I hate about life. So, here we go:
10. Computer viruses
Ern's computer caught a fucked up virus that freezes her computer at the "Welcome" screen of windows. I spent about 2 hours trying to fix it to no avail. Oh how I hate computer viruses.
9. Computer viruses
OMG, did I say I hate computer viruses? I REALLY REALLY HATE COMPUTER VIRUSES!!
8. Liars
I can stand liars. I mean, I lie all the time, but we all know it's in good fun. But real liars are intolerable. People who say one thing, and then behind your back, they change their word, and some are just worse; they don't even bother to do it behind your back. But I guess that's in some ways better than those who do it behind your back. At least they come out in front of you. But I still detest liars.
7. Pretenders
Why are pretenders worse than liars? Or rather, why do I hate pretenders more than liars? What is the difference anyway? Liars just speak things that are not true. But pretenders, they live it. Why is living a lie worse than telling lies? Well, it's pretty intuitive, don't you think? I guess if you really want to look on the bright side from my perspective, at least they are cheating themselves.
6. Leechers I
The first kind of leecher is more of a geekspeak kind of leecher. In the world of file-sharing, leechers are people who download from others and never let others download from them. Oh wow, you can't even share free stuff. What the hell is wrong with you?
5. Leechers II
The second kind of leechers that I hate, are those that leech off of my abilities. Now, I am not boasting here because I don't have many abilities that people can leech off of. But I really hate people who never talk to me for over two years and all of a sudden, they want to know why the government or the central bank can control economic activity through open market operations or want me to vet some report for them. Don't you find this ridiculous?
4. Whiners
Everybody hates whiners. 'Nuff said.
3. Sore losers
Wow, there's a limit to being bitter about losing. You can suck it up, go home and wait to fight another day. You don't need to insult your opponents after you lose.
2. Idiots/Assholes (many other names for this group)
How can you ever skip this in a hate list, right? I can't stand people who just do ridiculously ridiculous things. I mean, they are not stupid people, I have nothing against the ill-informed, but I just despise those who keep doing stupid things over and over.
Now, for number 1...
1. Computer viruses
Did I say computer viruses already? HOLY SHIT, nothing has ever pissed me off more than computer viruses and idiots who keep sending them to other people and infect other people's computers. Seriously, if your computer has been infected, please get it repaired AT ALL COSTS, not ignore it and deal with it while it kills other people's computers as well.
