KeranaMu hidup Malaysia

Titik-titik hujan bagai salju membasahi bunga raya 

menyerlahkan keseriannya

detik-detik yang berlalu membuktikan keunggulan

kejayaan negara kita

Terus bangunlah warga Malaysia

curahkan cintamu 

pada nusa dan bangsa

kejayaan milik kita

Syukur dan pujian

kuserahkan padaMu Tuhan Maha Kuasa

tiadaMu hancurlah segala impian

KeranaMu hidup Malaysia.

Children are gift from God

  Children are gift from God. They are not to be considered an accident. They have the rights to live so stop treating them like junks.

  The crimes against these innocent lives are tremendously increasing. From cases of abortion, abuse, molest, rape, abduction and now baby dumping.

  What’s going on? Why are people becoming monsters that are predating on young vulnerable lives? Is there any protection for these kids? If there is, is it enough?

  I consider these monsters including those who are dumping the babies are cold-blooded evildoers and selfish. They are full of lust, greed and no fear of God.

  I can’t imagine how people including mothers daringly throw away their new born or some even fearlessly kill these infants before dumping them or try flushing them through toilet holes. It’s disgusting.

  The famous Ten Commandments’ first commandment is “Do not kill”. The word “kill” in this instance specifically refers to “murder” which is a premeditated and deliberate act of taking someone's life. Most religion and law are against murder. What do we call these unlawful acts against infants?

  As a former journalist, I have witnessed baby dumping cases in the 90’s. It has been a heart breaking moment to see helpless little dead babies with earthworms and insects all over their bodies at dumpsites. Some even lay dead with wound marks and others have become food for animals.

  I remember interviewing relevant government officers, police department, politicians and Non Governmental Organizations (NGO) to compile statistics for my article and ways to curb the problem.

  Most of them want stern action to be taken against the culprits and said that government should take drastic action to overcome the menace.

  For so long we have been voicing out against these inhuman behaviors but the problem goes on. Statistics shows that there are so many baby dumping cases yet the ‘black sheep’ escapes the law. Where is justice?

  Now is the time to act! Stop the blame game and let’s work together to curb these growing problem. Increase crime prevention efforts, bring to book those evildoers, table relevant laws to protect the children, conduct more awareness programmes and at the same time help unwed pregnant mothers by providing temporary shelter plus counseling.

  Promote abstinence from sex before marriage and sex education programmes in schools, colleges, universities and learning centres. Incorporate it into the syllabus and do it immediately to help overcome wedlock pregnancies that lead to abortion, baby dumping and single parenthood. 

  Above all, love one another because true love protects, it does not have any evil intensions and it does not harm. Whatever we do, let us do it in love.

a F A M I L Y poem (anonymous writer)   I ran into a stranger as he passed by,  "Oh excuse me please" was my reply.  He said, "Please excuse me too;  I wasn't watching for you."  We were very polite, this stranger and I.  We went on our way and we said goodbye.  But at home a different story is told,  How we treat our loved ones, young and old.  Later that day, cooking the evening meal,  My son stood beside me very still.  When I turned, I nearly knocked him down.  "Move out of the way," I said with a frown.  He walked away, his little heart broken.  I didn't realize how harshly I'd spoken.  While I lay awake in bed,  God's still small voice came to me and said,  "While dealing with a stranger, common courtesy you use, but the family you love, you seem to abuse. Go and look on the kitchen floor,  You'll find some flowers there by the door.  Those are the flowers he brought for you.  He picked them himself: pink, yellow and blue.  He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise,  you never saw the tears that filled his little eyes."  By this time, I felt very small,  And now my tears began to fall.  I quietly went and knelt by his bed;  "Wake up, little one, wake up," I said.  "Are these the flowers you picked for me?"  He smiled, "I found 'em, out by the tree.  I picked 'em because they're pretty like you.  I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue."  I said, "Son, I'm very sorry for the way I acted today;  I shouldn't have yelled at you that way."  He said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay.  I love you anyway."  I said, "Son, I love you too,  and I do like the flowers, especially the blue."  FAMILY  Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company  that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days.  But the family we left behind will feel the loss  for the rest of their lives.  And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more  into work than into our own family, an unwise investment indeed, don't you think?  So what is behind the story?  Do you know what the word FAMILY means?                            (F)ATHER                     (A)ND                           (M)OTHER           (I)                     (L)OVE                  (Y)OU                                                                                                                                                                                                                            God Bless you and Have a Blessed Day ahead of you love and regards, Kumar-Josephine  & family
