Utusan Malaysia ... Busted!



I saw this article while browsing my FB news feed this morning. The article is about the urbanization in Kiulu (kunun la!). hehehe




In the article, there is a pic of the HSBC building located in KOTA KINABALU (refer Pic above) which they refer to as KIULU. The caption of the picture is "Pekan Kiulu di Sabah yang kini turut menikmati limpahan nikmat merdeka melalui pembangunan yang berterusan".

Anyway, the picture was removed this afternoon. I guess the author or Utusan finally noticed their mistake. News like this spread like wildfire! thanks to 'limpahan nikmat merdeka' that comes in the form of social networking. hehe

According to the author, the picture 'hanya sekadar hiasan'. Sudah busted mo cover lagi bah ayaiyai!. You don't simply put a picture of Cinderella when your story is about Red Riding Hood! That doesn't do justice to the little red riding hood, her grandmother or even the wolf! :P

How to tell a genuine story when you can't even get the picture right!! hehehe



Like an undercooked cake covered with a beautiful floral design fondant. The cake is nicely covered and you'll never know that the center is undercooked, unless you cut it =)
