baby boomer vs baby beggar

Well, it must be said that it has been a while since i last flexed these fingers.



Em..what has happenned..the sogo kid was found...his so called "guardian" was captured for trying to add to the kid's CV; Occupation: beggar...what is wrong with people nowadays...but using kids to beg is not a new issue...just go to the PLUS highways, sometimes if ur "lucky", you might bump into some kids selling things for "charity"...closer to KL, try visiting the Jamek Mosque after friday prayers, suddenly there is an influx of beggars..Im not trying to downgrade anyone, far from it actually. Its just that i dont agree to kids begging for money when they should be provided with a proper education. Lets not even take into account that certain people are actually "using" them to reap economic gains; its just that as we progress towards 2020 (or is it 2057?), i think there should be a concrete coordination to eradicate poverty.





p/s: it used to be the baby boomer generation, now its the baby beggar generation..

Just a thought.......

Em...this is just a thought that has been bugging me for weeks..Why can't Muslims in Malaysia unite?



I think everyone realises the fact that we have  many political factions, organisations, etc2 but why is it that we are still "fighting" with each other..



take for instance the case of the "Lojing" deforestation issue (http://www.utusan.com.my/utusan/archive.asp?y=2007&dt=0331&pub=utusan_malaysia&sec=muka%5Fhadapan&pg=mh_10.htm&arc=hive)



Party U vs Party P......PArty U highlights the issue in a manner of trying to gain political mileage...Party P tries to defend itself whilst at the same time blaming party U for its past actions..Ok, both are at fault here.FULL STOP..Rather than indulging in a political warfare against each other, why cant they just tackle the issue in a more humane manner and accept that everyone is responsible...I know some might say, " Alaaaa, thats politics."...yeah but still cant they act in a better manner....i dont care if people say im naive in politics (and i"ll try my best to avoid politics)....the fact is that we can build a better nation if we unite..let it be if your affiliated with different political backgrounds, whats wrong in uniting among each other and quitting the verbal crap?....Not only would it benefit Muslims, but it would also benefit our brothers and sisters from other religions..
