Howsy wrote about Amir Muhammad sometime back.But the book wasn't RM20, Howsy. It was RM30 at the Times Bookstore.
It wasn't exactly an outstanding book, but it is a "Good Bad Book", a term coined by George Orwell.

"Malaysian Politicians Say the Darnest Things is a collection of over 100 Quotes. Amir said it will make you go hmmm and gaga.
Amir promised more to come; that's why he called this book Vol 1.
The interesting point to note is how Amir started with the Introduction using Winston Churchill's quote:
"It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations."
"It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations."
But I too like books of Quotation, Amir?
I like to quote here some of his work:
Shoot II: "They [taxi drivers who cheat tourists] should be lined up against the wall and shot. They are the new enemies, the same as communists. I am not joking, this is a serious matter. If they can be shot, all the better."
(This comment was made by Sheikh Kadir Sheikh Fadzir, the then Cultural, Arts and Tourism Minister, Berita Harian, 26 August 2002).
It was a nice one. I was just wondering Amir, that our ministers deemed it necessary, if the law would permit, to shoot taxi driver who cheat the tourist. What then about those ministers, politicians, and civil servants who cheated millions and billions from the taxpayers' money? Should they just be shot at the wall or should it be far greater torture on them such as, gang-raped them, make them eat shit, slew them and throw their bodies to the vultures.
I darned think it will happen to them but the punishment may be meted out on those policemen who take $50 along the highways and expressways.
I also have another of Amir's book, "Generation - A Collection Of Comtemporary Malaysian Ideas", co-authored with Kam Raslan and Sheryll Stothard, published by Hikayat Press, 1996.

gang-rape them? Hell, no! You think I'm gay? You want me to get AIDS? What have I ever done to you such that you want me to die from AIDS?
These corrupt buggers are rotten down to their dirty arses and all you can think of is their smelly arseholes! A much better way is for them to be sula-ed ala Mahsuri and if they are innocent, their blood would be white. If red, blue or any other color, they are guilty.
I bought directly from him via post for RM20 only lar...
Arghh...still trying to find some time to review it. Maybe it's never, since you already did it. :P
If I need a laugh, I make sure I visit my dear RPK. He never fails to put a smile back on my face with his sarcasm. lol Good sarcasm.
Psst, the latest one regarding the buka puasa? A gem! lol
corruption, who can beat the ACA fellas?
first, RPK reported abotu ACA kidnapping family members of a police officer who squeal on their corrupt colleagues who are in the bag of the triads.
now, ACA is doing the bidding of a prominent businessman ( an auto king) who is now embroiled in a business dispute with his previous partners. shit, this is a private affair and you asked why the ACA is involved; like grilling for hours the nominee shareholders for information. this is none of the ACA fucking business and its best that the ACA focus on catching the corrupt dudes.
you just the feeling that arms of governance are all falling apart, snt it.
To be placed in the same company as Arthur Conan Doyle is a compliment indeed.
And by the way, it's spelled 'darndest.'
