Pls-lahRakyat: Suiting up the President

POSTED ON FEBRUARY 8, 2017 BY ADMIN

Standard Issue 

Whether be it a triumphant Trump or a Hillary, the suit they will wear would be of a standard issue worn by all their Presidents.

This is not the case with only the American presidency, but it is a universal reality that follows after an election in any country. Promises and canvassing are only done before an election, but the real thing is to walk the talk after attaining the official five-year lease and keys to the White House. 

Unfortunately, the walking ends with the talking when the sitting in office begins. The changes they will make after their victory may not be as real as their campaign promises and most of the time, not even close to the spoken word. Donald Trump monopolised and influenced the voters by playing on the sentiments of a  frustrated America by prescribing new fixes to the huge problems that it faced for being the Policeman of the globe. 

He cunningly stirred up their emotions with a powerful ladle and they reflected their desire for his fix on voting day by having their hopes and dreams pinned on his campaign. 

Running a country with a recipe of unorthodox ideas is synonymous to stirring dinner in a wok with a ladle using your left hand when you are actually right-handed because you just might end up eating your dinner off the floor. This might not go down too well, even for the great Donald Trump, who has always been a successful businessman and who have now successfully concocted the perfect political carnage to the great Institution of American politics on a theme of making America great again. 

In his campaign, he has made enemies of countries near and afar, races, communities, and religions which will all automatically change when he is suited up as the President of the USA. You can witness this even in his victory acceptance speech where he is visibly transforming and fitting gracefully into the mould of a President. He has now reverted to calling his Democratic opponent from crooked Hillary to Secretary Hillary and all after suiting up as the President of the United States of America. A  President or a Prime Minister`s outfit is pre-ordained and tailored to suit anyone publicly elected as a perfect fit no matter what he said in the past during his campaigns. 

Donald Trump is a great businessman, but now, God knows he is working very hard on making his position of being the commander and chief of the world’s most dominant country as his number one business. We can see in the news every day that the President is not biting as fiercely as he barked during his campaign. He however certainly did a great job in barking the right trees to get elected into office. The suit always makes a difference once you get to wear it, God bless America!  And  God save the rest of the World!

Colours of a Peacock

Colours of a Peacock Nestled deep in an oil palm plantation in the humble town of Maran in central West Malaysia, is a century-old Hindu temple that rears peacocks. The peacock is considered sacred because mythology has it that it is the preferred mode of transportation of Lord Subramanian, who is also the patron deity of worship in the said temple. The peacock never seems to amaze me with its awesome coat of colours that it wears, especially when it fans out its feathers in a courtship ritual. What truly inspires me from this, is to appreciate the finer details of every colour application that exists around us.  There is not a single thing in nature that is off colour or coloured in bad taste, it simply means that God has coloured everything we see meticulously with perfect design and taste. We are then, only left with the task to view, appreciate, replicate and occasionally write about it in absolution. EDit. This picture was taken during a visit to Maran Maruth...

Synchronicity (Video)

Eashwer Dass Synchronicity This is an experiment of removing the original soundtrack of three different Indian classical dances and replacing it with only one randomly chosen soundtrack. The outcome is quite amazing, it is almost as if there is an auto choreographic built-in mechanism that magically synchronises the two almost perfectly. EDit.

Two African Women Rebranded

NOT TRUE This is an awesome portrait of two beautiful women on the cover page of an elite fashion magazine featuring the untapped beauty of the African continent and her people. Both women are highly acclaimed professional models, bathed in the finest branded perfume, masked in branded makeup, wearing a fine collection of branded non-precious contemporary jewellery and cloaked in trendy summer wear.  And that's just nonsense! THE TRUTH These two African women woke up this morning and promised that they would live life to its fullest as they do every day, as simply as they breathe the crisp Ethiopian air. BEAUTIFUL Dressed in their pleasant hand woven garb and donning local handcrafted colourful adornments wrapped around limbs and neck they set off to catch a bus into their local village town.  EDit .
