Under the weather...again

Been feeling under the weather for the past few days. Have terrible bouts of cough. Alhamdulillah getting better now. The cough have subsided and feeling better. Realised one thing though... when you are not feeling well, all the aches and sores on your body is amplified...


I am a bit disillusioned with the goings on lately. I'm no analyst nor I pretend to be. I am just a man on the street looking for a better Malaysia for my children. I dont have the flair to write about going ons with good governance, CAT, and such. Please I plead get on with logical and respectable policy that is worth digesting. I want and demand a good government that cares for the people and no more conspiracies, affairs, hanky panky. I pay my taxes and I expect the money be put to good use. It is hard enough to make ends meet, and I can change my lifestyle to fit my budget with the rising costs, but what about the more unfortunate? Have you been down to the rural, down trodden areas? Have you looked at how people are living?

All I have left is faith to Allah, and what keeps me going is my family. I want a better future and a better Malaysia for them to be proud of.

Please in future..
no more Benz issues...
no more DNA issues...
no more C4 issues...
no more conspiracies....
no more lavish spendings....
no more wastage....


and have more
quality education... (and I mean quality!)
quality of life....
affordable essential items...
accountability...
transparency...
security....(lower crime rates... so I feel secure in my own country)

Those are the things that I can think of now.....

Am I selfish? Maybe. Is it too much too ask? Shouldn't be. Have I the right to ask for all that? As a citizen of Malaysia, I have.

Just my 2 sens worth (whatever 2 sens is worth nowadays.... practically nothing... and round down becomes zero....)

afsi,

I know exactly what you mean and how you feel... Dah tak kuasa dah!

If it is as it is now, it worries me to think of how it would be nanti when my kids are all grown up...

Btw, get well soon!

Get well soon, afsi. Must be the haze? So might as well add one more thing to the list - better AIR quality. Coz the very AIR that we breathe in now - is no longer free. It comes with a price - batuk2 segala.
