For those traveling to Melaka, fear no more as since today the government declared Malacca to be meningitis free.

This came after releasing the 3 last quarantined citizens one week ago from hospital. No new cases of meningitis have been reported since the outbreak started beginning this month.

Traveling however continues to be hazardous when you travel by plane: airplanes just circulate a limited amount of air, so whoever has a flu, you most likely will breath in his or her germs.

That’s what happened with a Japanese citizen of Malacca who traveled on board of a Malaysian Air Lines flight where one of the passengers got the H1N1 virus. Meanwhile his girlfriend got the H1N1 virus (swine flu, Mexican flu, Influenza A) as well, but the Japanese expat is confirmed to be as healthy as a fish.

Which makes Malaysia again a healthy country to travel to, just make sure you protect yourself against aedes mosquitoes in order not to get dengue fever nor the milder chikungunya disease:

• make sure you use mosquito repellent all the time
   
• be aware that the mosquitoes normally fly between 17.00 pm and 09.00 am and
   
• they attack "below the waist", so protect your feet, ankles and legs especially.

Meanwhile 10.000 people worldwide have been recorded having the swine flu, luckily it’s not that deadly but it’s quite a headache, literary!

Any politician that can prove me wrong, please do step forward and raise your hand. How many hands did you see?

Gordon Brown pays his brother £6.000 for "cleaning services".

How many corporate firms have a policy of not hiring family members of employers? Of course in the corrupt political world, brothers of MP’s fair equally well as the MP himself.

They range from $3.93 charged for Tampax by a (male) Tory MP to a $4,000 king-sized bed billed by the leader of the centrist Liberal Democrats to $252,000 billed by the Tory deputy speaker for expenses related to a country house he owns mortgage-free.

All this is possible because the British have a law that states to reimburse every of the 646 MP’s for any expenses related to:

• procuring and keeping one house in London (for easy access to Parliament) and another in their constituency, on top of their original house (Yes, you have your maths right: 3 houses) and
   
• for the travel between those three houses.

Every public listed company has a yearly audit for all the shareholders to read how the money is used. Why is this not common practice for the way taxpayers money is used by the public chosen government?
