My thought: This immoral act by the father really outrages my patient. It is such a cruel and unacceptable trick to do retaliation on his wife. He should not sacrifice his own blood just for his own joy. The kids are just innocent and suppose to be loved by their parent, not being fooled by their most trusted people. The father must be reprehensive and I support the verdict of the court of life with no parole for the murders. Perhaps, the municipal and government will engross more attention on this issue and prompt action should be implemented.
This is a real life example of what we learn from the econ. The soaring Australian dollar has grabbed attention from the both the government and opposition party. Australian Deputy Prime Minister and Treasurer Wayne Swan was boasted with the strongest investment boom since the 1850 gold rush experienced by one of the prominent global economy. On the other hand, opposition spokesman Andrew Robb voiced out that the appreciation of Australian dollar will vividly affect the export of the country and the tourism industry. He reckons the government to cut down government reckless spending which leads to higher interest rate and consequently rising of Australian Dollar. One of the industries that have been hit hard is the cattle industry.
Criticism:
I am in the middle between the stand of the two groups of people. I think that pertinent action should be embraced after the reason for the rising of Australian dollar was being notified. May be, Mr Robb want to grab people attention and win support from the community. Thus he just spoke out what is opposite to the government. Still, it is just my guess and we don’t know what is really happen as we still not wise enough to do so.
Hopefully the issue on the soaring Australian dollar can be tackled thoroughly to ensure the well performance of Australia economy.^^
Comment: This social incident reflects how bad the moral and behavior of teenagers is nowadays. A fight can be stir up by only a few harsh words which end up with a grievous injury. For me, the culprit in this mayhem should be sentenced to act as a deterrent for others. This issue need to be tackled carefully but not held in abeyance without any action as teenagers are the vital component of a society that cement a country in the future. Ergo society support the court’s decision as I believe that the decision adopted is for the sake of the teenager and the society.

The findings of Galaxy Poll revealed that a work-life balance is the vital key toward the success for modern dads. The findings is conducted on 1255 fathers with children aged 17 and under. Half of the father nowadays sought for more flexible working hours in order to stay with their children. However, many are still reluctant to negotiate with the employer about the flexibility of working condition as they fear that their career will be suffered. Besides, those high-income earners think that money doesn’t bring much joy to their family. Other than that, the issue on the relationship with the partner also been discussed in the findings.

One of the participants in the findings, Nick Abbink who has seven months old daughter believed that parenthood has improved his relationship with his partner
Comment:
This is an interesting for me because it is about the perceptive of a man towards the issue of parenthood. Honestly, the results are quite impressive because it vividly indicated that the father nowadays concern about the children as much as a mother. The fathers nowadays seem to be engrossing their attention on the children more than what I have in my mind. Albeit, it is a good sign and should be maintained because the role of a father or a husband in the process of development of the children is as important as the role played by a mother or wife. To all the men, love your children and for sure you will enjoy the fruit of happiness in your lives!

·minimum number of supervised on-road hours before they are given a licence - either 25, 50 or 120 hours
·3 years of using learner-approved motorcycles by new riders
·120 hours of supervised driving before gaining a probationary licence
Roads Minister Tim Pallas alleged that he will conduct a public discussion for this glare issue to tally the scheme to meet both interest of public and government.
Comment:
This is a ultimately right move toward creating a more safety society. As we all know, motorbike riders face greater danger as compared with others road users. Hence it is vital to ensure appropriate driving skill and attitude of motorbike riders which will help to reduce the number of toll and injuries. To be honest, I also hope that Malaysian government will also overhaul the driving license test system in order to make our country more safety.
