Kartika is a choice woman

Often Sharky&Sharky witness befuddlement in mankind. When given  a choice people cannot choose. We see it everyday in the media. For example

But he does chose without saying so he choses the beer.

Sometimes we have to choose what we truly love.


Then there is a beautiful Malaysian Model by the name of Kartika Sari Dewi Shukarmo. Here are two model shots of her from around the web.

Here is her penitent picture after being busted; the dude looking on is her dad.

Kartika is 33 years old. Not only has she been grounded, but she must do community service in a children's home for three weeks. This is a commuted sentence. Her crime was drinking beer in a hotel bar. Oh, Muslim women in Malaysia cannot do that. (Muslim women in other countries like Australia can drink beer) Her original sentence of caning was commuted by the Sultan of Pahang, Sultan Ahmad Shah. The caning under sharia law is meant to be educational. The local lawyers association voice complaints that the Sultan was out of line, and they expressed that Kartika should feel a little of the cane, say six strokes to teach her how to behave. However it appears no one wants to challenge the sultan:



Well Sharky&Sharky like the Sultan of Pahang; he seems to be able to humanely balance touchy and politically difficult situations. Sharky&Sharky want to thank the Sultan for stopping the caning of Kartika. Further we want to encourage him to stop the caning of everyone, men and women, in Pahang. Therefore we give him the interesting guy in world salute.
. We can only say to Kartika and the Sultan and everyone else in Pahang "stay thirsty our friends"
