Sunyi Yang Bising

Sunyi ini bingit
Kena beli lampin Adik!
Kena beli susu Adik!
Kakak hendak buku sekolah baru!

Sunyi ini gegak gempita
Tuan, ikan di peti sudah habis!
Tuan, beras sudah habis!
Tuan, gas untuk dapur sudah habis!

Kutoleh kanan,
Wajah Adik tenang dan aman,
Di bibir Kakak ada senyuman manis,
(mimpi bermain dengan kawan-kawan agaknya)

Pusing kiri, baring mengadap,
Sunyi itu berhiruk-pikuk lagi,
Lalu ku pusing ke kanan,
Damai dan tenang,
Anugerah Tuhan yang tidak ternilai,
Tidurlah, anak-anakku sayang...

What if...

This is an angan-angan blog. This is where I can say, what if. The recent miniscule upheaval from within BN will be interesting IF, the no-confidence motion sees the light of day. Without further ado, let's go with the "what ifs"...

What if, the motion sees the light of day? Would it not be good for the current leadership to gauge its support amongst the BN MPs? Would it not be advantageous to our PM and his supporters? If the motion goes on, wouldn't it show light on the PM's musuh dalam selimut? So the api dalam sekam can be put out early? So the traitors and saboteurs can be brought out in the open? Let us say that the motion goes on. And with the majority support as demonstrated in these few days from BN leaders, I doubt that the PM will lose out. By simple mathematics and calculations (no need for an Oxford or Cambridge or Stanford graduate to deduce that out), BN will win the motion. Unless of course if there is another way of calculation that could make our PM lose out... Even if there is, I am sure the PM's advisors can device a plan not to let that happen.

What if, the motion goes on and our PM lose out (which is impossible! But then again, this is a what if). The baddest thing that can happen is that there will be a change of leadership. Let's see, if that happens, what will happen to the country? Turmoil? Street demonstrations? (like the one that happened in Penang after the CM said he wanted to review NEP?) You think so? In that case, let's kill the motion NOW. We don't want that to happen, do we? As it is, all the street demonstrations that had happened had brought turmoil and uncertainty to the country. The fuel hike is one thing. The raising price of rice is another thing. The economy will take a turn to the worse (as it is, a plan is being devised to fight inflation by raising up the prices! Well thought off. Bet you, the Oxford and Cambridge guys are working hard now!). TV3, Utusan Malaysia, NST will carry news that all these price hikes are due to the street demos and protests!

These are just a couple of thoughts from a layman. I'm sure Che Det's blog will have more things to say. In the meantime, I really wish that the motion will go on and the api dlm sekam and the musuh dalam selimut and the saboteurs and traitors can be revealed!

Selingan

Currently I'm reading a book titled "Tuesdays with Morrie". A very interesting book about life. Yes, the way we run our lives. The book is a story of a dying man and a living man. The former was a professor. The latter was his student. The dying professor was having his last class. And there was only one student, the living man.

The book went on about the professor's look and perspective on life itself. About dying, family, love, money, etc. It's quite good, actually. It makes you look at things from a different perspective. Makes you want to slow down and enjoy life to the fullest. Makes you want to connect more with other individuals that cross your path, either while driving, eating, walking, etc.

If you want, I can lend the book.

Father's Day Blues

Here I am, sitting in a hair salon, waiting on the missus. Yup, it's Father's Day and I'm pampering the missus. Got her a new phone too! Actually the phone is for her birthday, our anniversary and Mother's Day, all-in-one thingy. With the fuel hike, have to lor... Jimat duit. Change lifestyle.

What do I get on Father's Day? A hearty meal and a happy family.
