Germany: Bach and Goethe, the first baby crossbreeds between panda and crocodile, will be officially shown at Hamburg zoo today.

Proudly announced the world first time success in genetic combination between a land animal and a reptile last month, Mr. Till Lindeman, the Hamburg zoo director, said that his zoo is now ready to show off the new creatures to the public.

“It’s been awhile that we waited the babies to get familiar with new place, and now we think that this is the right time to meet more people” said Lindeman, smiling.

When asked about how much Hamburg spent with the two little hybrids, he frankly said to us that the zoo had to spend almost 2 billion Euros to make the crossing project of a panda and a crocodile came true.

“You may think that we’re gone crazy” he laughed. “Actually, our zoo had never spent a billion of money for any kind of animals or experiments like this before, but don’t you think that 2 billion was absolutely worth to buy these god roles? …Our zoo is now the legend” nicely added the director.

Ling Ling, the leader of the zoo scientists who has been in responsibilities with this panda-crocodile project, told that the project makes high- reputations to the zoo and her crews.

“We now get contacted to do the hybridizing from many many zoos. They try to contact us in every way. Some said they will pay us twice times, if we redo this for them.”

She added “Actually, my crew and I haven’t finished our job yet. We still have to keep our eyes on Goethe and Bach, this is because the babies were born in artificially way. I mean the scientific combination in DNA and genetic mutations. So we have to make sure that they will not have unusual or harmful behavior beyond our expectations in the future”

After the newborn specie news has been released on the television, there were many polls indicate that people, especially children, in Germany tend to choose the Hamburg Zoo for the first place to visit on their holidays, however.

Kamolwan Punyasuth

Bangkok- Deputy PM Chalerm Yubamrung yesterday denied the democrat’s claims that he was drunk during the parliamentary debate on 10.00 pm Saturday but admitted that could not bear the charming voice of Mr. Abhisit.

 “What Ms.Rangsima said is not true. I did not even drink alcohol before going to join the parliament. I am not that kind of bad politicians. You all know that I’ve never been” Mr. Chalerm said in the phone interview with Nation Times on Sunday.

After asking about the reason why his voice was like a drunk, Mr. Chalerm immediately gave his reason that it was because of the charming personalities and manners of opposition party leader, Mr. Abhisit Vejjajiva.

“To tell the truth, I personally liked his voice and his manners when we had the debate. He was so smart and handsome. I resisted that I wasn’t drunk but just forgot myself for awhile when I listened and took my eyes at Mr.Abhisit” He added.

Miss Rangsima Rodrassamee, the MP from Democrat Party, still takes the stand that the way that the Deputy PM looked, spoke, and did to her was absolutely drunk.

“On that day, Mr.Chalerm sat on just two front rows far from me. When he came up to speak, I could immediately catch the strong smell of alcohol from him” the MP from Samut Songkram said in an interview with channel 7.5

She also added “If Mr. Chalerm said that he wasn’t drunk, why didn’t him dare to accept my suggestion about checking the alcohol balance instead of going back home? I am not stupid, he can fool anyone but not me”

Mr. Boonyod Suktinthai, another MP from Democrat Party, said he did not believe in what that the DPM said and conformingly that he is telling a big stupid lie.

“Actually, he may personally like our leader’s personalities, voice, or whatever,  Mr. Abhisit didn’t look so charming or handsome on that day. He didn’t even shaved his beard because we just got back from our party’s activities at Rayong”
