As I am writing this post, the two Malaysian astronauts are sitting at the VIP gallery behind my seat. The House was alerted of their presence by the Minister of Science, Technology and Innovations. Yes, the Minister, Dato Seri Jamaluddin Jarjis hardly attend Parliament sitting and this time, he brought along the astronauts.

MPs are debating the National Measurement System Bill. As usual, MP for Jerai started to link his speech to the two astronauts. YB Pengkalan Chepa suddenly stood up and asked clarification from YB Jerai. He asked, if the astronauts practice prayers or not in the space.

There is not in the Bill is related to astronauts or outspace.

I have seen their pictures in the newspaper. Indeed, he is good looking. Another, seems a little shy.

I only hope that the two astronauts will not be stressed to attend functions organised by BN like what had happened to our two All-England men’s doubles champions Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong for the Machap by election.
