We shared the same two chinese characters in our names. We shared the same struggles in our quest for a Better Malaysia. We shared the same roles; you as an assistant to an Exco member amd I with an MP.......so different yet so much in common
But now, as you go to get your rest in peace, the struggle goes on. I pray for closure for your family, friends and relatives. But there will be NO CLOSURE for truth and answers to the final hours of your life.
We must not let your death be in vain; all errors, administrative or otherwise to the procedures of interrogations etc must be corrected.
In the same way, the roles and functions; plus the necessary protection and immunity for PA's must also be addressed. We, the PA's are in a particularly vulnerable position; with little or no official protections but having to bear the roles and responsibilities, in many instances, equal to that of the elected representatives. We are not complaining but we ask to be given due care.
Bro, as you look down now from above, I pray for guidance and protections for all of us here. Be pleased that your passing has indeed brought together everyone from all races and political believes, UNITED as one: One Nation, One People! Kami semua sebagai SATU BANGSA MALAYSIA!
Amen!

The Heart of August
After many days of reflection on the late BH Teoh’s incident. I finally come to my own words to describe what was transpire.
Just one word:-Aselgeia.
aselgeia in greek denotes "excess, licentiousness, absence of restraint, indecency, wantonness and lasciviousness.
Which indicates a love of sin so reckless and so audacious that a man has ceased to care what God or man thinks of his actions, which contain the idea of shamelessness, outrageousness.
[ It simply denotes wrong doing so open and so blatant that it has ceased to have any regard for what anyone may think or feel or say.
The characteristics of 'aselgeia.' have wanton and undisciplined action. It is the action of a man who is at the mercy of his passions and his impulses and his emotions, and in whom the voice of calm reason has been silenced by the storms of self will.
It has respect neither for the persons nor the rights of anyone else. It is violent, insolvent, abusive, audacious. Any thought and sympathy for the feelings of others has ceased to exist.
It is completely indifferent to public opinion and to public decency. A man may well begin to do a wrong thing in secret; at the beginning his one aim an desire may be to hide it from the eyes of men. He may love the wrong thing, and he may even be mastered by it, but he is still ashamed of it. But it is
perfectly possible for him to come to the stage when he does openly and blatantly that which he did secretly and in concealment. He may come to a stage of sin when he is so lost to shame that he no longer cares what others see, and what they may say, or what they may think.
The terrible thing about Lasciviousness is that it is the act of a character which has lost that which ought to be its greatest defense--its self-respect, and its sense of shame. "Flesh and Spirit," by William Barclay.]
The journey for truth, justice, transparency , fairness, freedom, righteousness has just begun. It takes our unity, perseverance and willingness to make it happen.
Let the “Saya Anak Bangsa Malaysia” come together to make Malaysia a better place for our children and their children to come.
