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..
nothing to say bcause the rakyat are so generous. N the best thing is our gov rep speaks in media like the hero but suddently hide themself behind the "kelambu"; in other words "cakap xserupa bikin" or "baling batu sembunyi tangan". The beggar case is not a new prob bcause my first intention to this case since I was in Primary school! Too much birocracy at the gov level. When we ask Kementerian Perumahan n Kerajaan Tempatan, they said "This is not our job. Ask Kementerian Sharizat la". When we ask Kementerian Wanita dn Keluarga, they said "Our pusat is so conjusted. Since they doesnt make 'noise' n there are no complaints from MPs, let them beg as they wants". And I ask one of the officer bout this matter, she said "We are too busy". So, our Visit Malaysia Campaign is very colourful with these beggers every inch aroud us.
