The 1st World Is Now In Asia Religion Is Useless Science Becomes God

The corona virus has shown quite a few "truths" that cannot be ignored. 
1. Firstly China has outshined every other nation in how they have handled the Corona Virus - really very well. Not only is the infection well under control in this country of 1.5 BILLION people but now China is saving the world by sending out tons of medical supplies, medicines and also exporting their expertise to handle the virus infections. Chinese experts have gone to Italy (among the worst hit) and other countries to assist people fight the infections. 
And what the world should know is that by early January 2020 the Chinese were the first to crack the genetic code (genome) for the Corona Virus and shared the information with the world.  
"Scientists in China sequenced the virus’s genome and made it available on Jan. 10, just a month after the Dec. 8 report of the first case of pneumonia from an unknown virus in Wuhan"
Cracking the code allows for the formulation of those Corona Virus test kits.  Germany worked out their test kit formula within two days after the Chinese posted their findings. Our own IMR is believed to have formulated a test kit also within two days. 
(Ok folks there are some weird things going on in Malaysia over the handling of this corona crisis. Clever beggars are beginning to show their dirty hands. It may have an impact on how quickly we handle the virus. 
That hotel scheme is indeed looking like a scam. Talk is Corona test kits can be got for as little as US$6 or RM27 (but only 30% - 50% reliability).So the government should not be paying more than RM27 per test kit. A figure like US$24 or RM105 will certainly be too much.RM600 per test (even with 90% reliability) is also too expensive. Allow pharmacists / private suppliers to import these test kits directly with no import duties, APs, red tape etc. This is NOT the time for any cronies to be making money.And how is the Army coming along with that  Virus Buster vehicle or something?Janganlah berkira sangat oi.  Peoples' lives are at stake.)
Back to China they are reopening their cities and factories. Here is an 11 minute video about China getting back on its feet  :   https://youtu.be/8NS0ZXU19uI




The Chinese have proven that they are far more advanced than any 1st world country in the type of infrastructure they have to serve their people. 
To handle the corona virus they built huge 3000 bed hospitals in 10 days. 
They placed 'delivery cabinets' outside almost every apartment in the major cities where food deliveries can be dropped off without human contact. Pos Laju has those delivery cabinets at some locations in Malaysia.
The Chinese fixed smart fone type scanners with cameras and heat sensors outside every apartment to scan people entering and leaving the apartments. The scanners were linked by WeChat and every Chinese citizen's smart fone would have a green (not infected), orange (at risk) and red (high risk) color bar. 
Only the greens are allowed to drive. 
The orange people have some restrictions and the reds are banned. 
The other two countries which have handled the situation well are South Korea and our neighbour Singapore. I use the word 'situation' meaning everything that concerns the virus. Singapore school kids have not missed schooling. They have switched to online education quite remarkably well. So the education of their children (despite now under lockdown) is not interrupted. South Korea did not even lockdown. Their economy is not suffering as much. 
Compared to China, South Korea and Singapore the Western countries are facing many difficulties not just in handling the virus itself but in managing the larger society and economy under these stressful conditions.  
So here when I say 1st world what I really mean is the high quality and sufficient quantity of social service, social safety and social well being  that China, South Korea and Singapore have been able to provide their people during this time of crisis.  These are exemplary countries. 
2.  Religious scammers

Ok the religious people are really quite useless in all this. 

The astrologers have also been proven wrong.  
How come no astrologer was able to "predict" the corona virus? 

Even Hollywood has a better record of making corona virus movies from years ago - almost as though they knew the script !
And here is your Horoscope chart (FOR ALL OF YOU) until dont know when :



So to the astrologers - boleh balik kampong tanam jagung lah.
Now all the people, including the religious people, are "praying" that the scientists and scientifically trained medical doctors will find a cure for the corona virus or treat it in the quickest and safest way possible.
But what happened to their religions, their prayers and all their "gods" before the pandemic arrived? 
All your years and decades of prayer did not keep you safe from the virus.  
Only science, medicine and pharmacology can save us. 
But we can be certain that once the virus pandemic is safely over, without batting an eyelid, the religious people will go back to claiming that it was on account of their prayers and because of their "gods". 
It does not matter whether they prayed to Santa Claus, they prayed to the great Juju the god of the volcano or if they prayed to kon-tiki the great god of the oceans and everything else. They will claim that their different gods overcame the corona virus - all at the same time. If you want a definition of 'random coincidence' well this shall be it.  It makes the whole concept 'random' doesn't it? 
3.  Science 

This corona virus has proved so far (not just the medical aspects but also from the social, economic, security and other aspects) that it is science and science alone that has helps us overcome our real world problems. 
We need science, technology, engineering, logical thinking, common sense, professionalism, scientific management of people, the economy, the environment etc to keep human beings in well being and happiness.  
Not religious mumbo jumbo and certainly not astrology bullshit.
Science does not ask to be worshipped. That is stupid. 
But if science becomes a "god" there will be greater benevolence for the human race. Posted by Syed Akbar Ali
