A grim Syawal

Many Malaysians are still without income, no job...in destitute. Many Muslims can't even fulfill their duty to pay tithe and yet the tithes collection seldom reached them.

I know some families who couldn't afford to buy new shoes and clothes for their family, let alone make ends meet.


And there are still many Malaysians living in 'pondok'-type houses; they are so poor and neglected because the 'zakat' money is not spent wisely (they spend only RM10 from each RM100 collected) while the agencies that are supposed to help alleviate poverty and look after the welfare of the unfortunate are so picky, media-crazy (no coverage, no delivery) and being used as political platform.

Not to mention the cheapest car on the road and a low-cost house are still not affordable to the low income bracket... the disparity gap is widening!

My heart is with them, also with the families of passengers and crew of MH370 and MH17. My thoughts remain with the people in the conflict areas, notably the Middle East and Myanmar. Where is the United Nations?

Where is Umno, by the way? Quite a number of pro-Umno bloggers and social media players whom Umno and BN squeezed their brain during GE13 are celebrating Hari Raya with 'nothing'. They only exist when we need them.

Come 3 or 4 years from now, they will be called up again for help.

But this is Malaysia, this is BN, this is Pakatan and this is our 'way of life'. Have we seen the light?

SELAMAT HARI RAYA...
