What do you think?

Scary shyt... and to think I went to the discos in Haadyai..

Hmm... if both of them are really making out in the toilet, would they be so free to write a long blog entry like that?

But she's absolutely right about people not helping those in need... when you see people get robbed, passer-bys will just stare or stand nearby and see what happen next. This is Malaysians for you.

That's ****ing outrageous. Much as I love Zouk (Singapore), they should take the whole lot of them to court!

peaz · 11th Nov 2005, 12:26 PM

I think the most appalling fact is that no one went to help or even at least asked wat was happening. Seeing helpless people getting bashed up, especially a lady is just simply outrageous.

I think it's not reasonable to expect individuals to stand up to 4 bouncers, unless maybe there was a group of guys...
Still, I think the issue is that these unbelievably irresponsible and unreasonable bouncers can brutally attack these people and get away with it.

Leian · 11th Nov 2005, 01:03 PM

Did you read the comments to her entry? o.0....

Some people were scoffing the entire thing, others were trying to pick on her pointing out that the bouncers were Malay and Indian thereby demanding if she was being racist. (Methinks it is the person who is oversensitve?)

Think we should tell Intel (since they hosted their party there before and they really wouldn't want their own rep to be sort of smeared by having any links with Zouk, would they?) about this? One of the posters already suggested Jeff Ooi.

The thing is.. it's very hard to determine who's right and who's wrong.

Does writing a blog make her any more truthful than Zouk?

Her story is plausible... and yet again, there are some pretty far-out explanations.

But in any case, the bouncers have no right bashing someone up. If a client has misbehaved, drag him out.

So, if he was really bashed up, he should immediately go to a hospital for a full check-up and get the doctors to document the injuries. Then, file a police report for criminal charges, and engage a lawyer to sue Zouk's ass off in a civil case.

But if they can't do that... well, you know what that means.

Just a thought .. I have yet to see a single picture of his injuries. And apparently, even the Chinese newspapers reported that they were making out in the restroom.

I've been to Zouk during the recent Intel event and as far as I can tell, there's a Bangladeshi worker in the restroom. If the guy did actually collapse, I think the Bangladeshi worker would have noticed, wouldn't he?

On the other hand, he wouldn't have allowed HER to enter the men's room for a "private smooch and touch session", would he?

True, the story may not be 100% true. still, if the claim of a history of rudeness by Zouk bouncers, then things just gets a bit more interesting. I guess we won't know until more victims (if any) comes out and tell their tale.

One thing though, my colleagues are saying that why did she just went into the mens bathroom and that she was immediately wrong because of that. This I cannot understand, especially in this modern age. True, in normal cases, please do not do it but in the case of an emergency, are you telling me that I cannot enter the girls bathroom to save my love ones (of course with a warning that I'm coming in before I enter)? :confuse:

Yup, rushing into the men's room is already a mistake to begin with. She did another mistake by locking the door. Why would she want to lock the door in the first place? If I were her, I wouldn't even have time to think of locking the door worrying that someone is going to hit them.

Dashken · 11th Nov 2005, 03:29 PM

One of the comment really hit me, she said James's liver is bad, etc... why did she let him drink any liquor at all?

And 2 rounds somemore!

And is a club a suitable place for a person in critical condition who might just call it a night out of the blur?

Nuts... if want, go la cafe or something.

Somemore lock the door, wtf did she have time to lock the door? This is really something to think about.

You asked people to ask for help, call hospital, etc and you attend to your bf with the door locked? Sounds stupid to me..

Well, about the pictures, she did say that all the bruises looked bad, so she didn't want to

you guys.
