Royalties And Foodbrawl.

Once again we are in the limelight. Negeri Sembilan versus Johore. No! It's not a football match. It's a royal match. It's akin to an EGM. The match can take place only when it is absolutely necessary. It is a rarity because this match must be played in a court.

And in Kelantan, a prince is suing two palace officials for failing to keep their mouths shut. What would the score be at the end of the game? Would there be red cards or red faces? Meanwhile, how prepared are the Indonesian team of Manohara when they face the Kelantanese? Would there be a rematch? How would the game end when both sides start to burn each others flags?

Next is the 'foodbrawl' match. The Tourism minister started the brawl rolling. Now, the Malaccans, Penangnites and even Singaporeans are making a beeline to lay claim to several dishes. Who gets the royalties?

Char kuay teow anyone? No! It's not Penang's. It was my late grandmother's recipe. She was from Sumatra.
