Kinta (federal constituency)

Kinta was a federal constituency in Perak, Malaysia, that was represented in the Dewan Rakyat from 1974 to 1986.

The federal constituency was created in the 1974 redistribution and was mandated to return a single member to the Dewan Rakyat under the first past the post voting system.

Usage examples of "kinta".

Not surprisingly, this endorsement stood him in good stead with his live-in companion, a religious/sexual fanatic named Kinta, whose view of human life centered on the idea that you'd better damned well be doing something sexual every single waking moment of your life, or else you were in big trouble.

Years after he had spent the two months with her, he had run into Kinta in a shopping mall in Louisiana, in Lafayette, and when he asked how she was, she said she was "stuck in the mud.

Edward sat on the edge of the bed thinking about Kinta and thinking about the other girlfriends he had had, thinking she was the only one of them that he still liked.

He wasn't surprised by the call -- except for this weekend, he had talked to Kinta more recently than he had talked to Elise -- but the proposition shook him a little.

There was a little pause on the telephone, then Kinta said, "Oh.

Edward was telling Kinta what to do when she got to town, but he looked at Lurleen, and then looked sideways at Elise.

And he wanted nothing more than to sit with these three people, four should Kinta arrive, and play a long, slow game of Risk, Monopoly, or perhaps some newer game that he didn't know the name of, but that he would be able to find if he went to the store.

He didn't know about Kinta -- he was looking forward to seeing her, looking forward to having sex with her, but he noticed that his interest was more clinical than passionate.

He had taken another twenty minutes in the tub after talking to Kinta, and then, when he was getting out, he heard the doorbell.

She looked like she was genuinely pleased to see Kinta, pleased to hug and be hugged.

On her side, Kinta looked slightly desperate, squeezing her eyes shut, putting more muscle into the embrace than it asked for, pressing her head hard against Elise's shoulder, against the curve of Elise's neck.

It was as if this hug was big stuff for Kinta -- she had some things to say with it, and she wanted to get them right.

It was when Elise went back into the car for her purse and Kinta leaned over the top of the open door that Edward first realized two things: one, she had on one of his shirts.

But at that moment he wished to God that he'd never even met Kinta -- his embarrassment was for himself not for her, and it was, he reckoned, a reflection of how he felt about Elise -- that he was afraid of her, that he was afraid of what she thought, that he was afraid that if she thought he and Kinta were a hot item or were about to be a hot item, she might give up on him, lose her interest entirely, and satisfy herself with her friend Roscoe.

It zipped through his mind that he should not be afraid of Elise, that he should be able to take the pleasures of Kinta -- Elise had walked out on him, number one, and number two, to Kinta, her state of relative undress wasn't anything special.
