Destiny

Different people have different destiny. Some people live to ripe full age, satisfactory , prosperous and meaningful life. Others live a short, miserable, poor and regretable life.

I believe everybody would like to live a meaningful and respectable life but not everybody can achieve it.Many factors such as health, determination, family, character and environment affect the life of a person.

My sixth brother lived a short live. He passed away at the age of 26. He led a miserable life and it is a long painful story to tell. I pray that God has mercy for him and he lives happily in the heaven with my late father, grandparents and other relatives who have passed away.

Nobody can escape death.Nobody wants to live a miserable life. Few people such as the casino king of Macau and Lee Kuan Yew can smile their ways to the graves. Most ordinary people will struggle and appear to be in deep agony at the moment they breathe their last breath . They refuse to close their eyes.They do not want to die. Their lives were meaningless, futile, short-lived and no legacy was left. Soon, the world has forgotten these people had ever existed on Earth.

In any case, I just pray that our God has mercy for these pitiful souls. They have had a miserable life while on Earth. They need love of God more than people like Lee Kuan Yew, Mao Zedong or Gaddafi. If God is a passionate God who shows mercy to these unfortunate souls,perhaps their death is a gain for they are rewarded with an eternal life.

Worrying trends in Malaysia

The world, including Malaysia, is facing acute financial crisis. Yet our government is not doing enough to accelerate the economic growth. Worse, trillions of dollars are wasted yearly due to rampant corruptions and wastage. The ministries or the departments concerned do not show any sense of remorse. They continue with their old practice of mismanagement of funds. The latest scandal is the cattle rearing investment that cost taxpayers millions , if not billions of dollars.

We are told that Malaysia`s debts run in trillions of dollars and each person, young or old , is indebted around rm 20,000 and the figure is going to increase. If nothing is done to stop the corruptions and to prevent the privatised companies such as North- South Highways from robbing the peoples` wealth, most probably Malaysia would end up like Greece soon.

We pray that our future generations need not suffer the consequence due to the mismanagement of the present leaders. May God grant them the wisdom to rule, failing which it is proper for them to be replaced in the next general election.

No corruptions?

Binoculars were bought at price few hundred percents more than the normal price. Submarines, jetfighters and many other items were bought at price many times higher than the normal price. Yet MACC said there is no corruption involved but the authorities " bought those items without checking out the normal price". Can you believe what the MACC said?

I think it is time for MACC to dissolve. Do not waste taxpayers` money. After all, there is " no corruptions" in Malaysia, what is the purpose of setting up MACC?
