No, it's not the Justin Timberlake's number. It's about this report in The Star. I always thought we Malaysians are a generous lot. All those donations for them Palestinians, them Myanmarese, them Achehnese and even them Sudanese. Apart from the outflow of RM via them foreign workers, legal and illegal, and them SMS scams, Malaysians donated a tidy sum too. Maybe that was then. Before the fuel hike and some. This is now.
Reckon that's why when something happened to one of our own, we did almost nothing. We let some Australian tourists foot the bill instead. And why not? Australia is one of the obvious destinations for those pursuing a tertiary education. And vacations. Imagine the outflow of RM. Imagine the contribution to Australia, especially when those studying there chose to stay. What is RM350 per month for 18 years? You can't even buy a Proton Perdana. Yeah right.
Anyways, me heartiest congratulations to Woo Kwee Fatt and his wife Ely Woo for the three new additions to the family. May life treat your family well.
Just hope there won't be any Malaysian begging on the streets in neighbouring countries anytime soon. But by the look of them stupid moves by morons who claimed to be championing and serving the people, don't bet your life savings on it.
