Kamek Anak Sarawak





It’s the general election weekend. My friends and I were very-very lucky to get free tickets to go back to Kuching for the weekend. Because i'm a true Sarawakian at heart, yes I brought a box of gardenia buns and bread back. We were very excited as it was our first voting experience. During the flight to Kuching and later, back to KL, everyone was really excited.

 The flight to Kuching was uneventful but the one back to KL was..interesting. It was a HUGE plane, double deck and everyone was looking forward (I think) to go back and return to reality. It turns out there was an engine technical problem and we were delayed for 6 hours but amazingly no one complained. Well, maybe we realized it’s a free flight and we have no right to complain or maybe it’s because we Sarawakians are not complaining type of people. Both on-board and ground MAS staffs were very friendly and helpful too. It’s not easy though to handle about 300 passengers. Kudos to them :)

 During the wait to board a new plane coming from KL, there was a strong sense of excitement and camaraderie. It’s not always that all the passengers of a flight are all Sarawakian. Although we are of different races and religion, all of us speak one language, our beloved Bahasa Sarawak. And since Kuching is such a small place, almost everyone knows each other. So you are bound to bump into someone you know boarding the same plane. Even if you do not know each other, all of them are so friendly that when you talk to them, it’s as if you have known them for a long time. It’s like all of us are one big family. 

 I’m proud being a Sarawakian. From where I come from, race and religion is not an issue. Sometimes we would shake our head in bewilderment on racism and extremism in the peninsular. They only have 3 main ethnic group yet they can’t get along well. We on the other hand are so “rojak” (due to mixed marriages) that you can’t tell a person’s ethnicity from their physical appearance. A Chinese looking guy might be a Malay and vice versa.

 Where ever we go in the world, Sarawakians tend to blend well into the community but once they met another Sarawakian, maka keluar la kamek kitak nya tek. It’s true what they say, “You can take someone out of Sarawak but you can’t take Sarawak out of someone.” 

No, we don't live on trees.

Poretan Bermakna Di Senjakala

May the angels be with you Perghhh..tajuk sudah bisa membuatkan cikgu BM saya terangkat bontot, tersenyum lebar sambil berkata pada diri sendiri "I've done a great job!" Sebenarnya mau letak "Life Is Fragile" tapi macam ada kurang impak Whenever tragedies happened and people, especially people I know died, it will always get me thinking how short and fragile life is. How we should appreciate each and everyone we love around us. How we should live and savour every moment because we are not promised tomorrow.  Are you afraid of death? I used to but now I'm not. On some days, I probably look forward to it. Not that I want to die tomorrow or now per say, but if it is time for me to go, I'll accept it with an open heart. Death is just a transition to another world.  Eventually everyone is going to die. Why are you afraid of something that is inevitable? When MH17 was shot down and crashed, killing all its passengers and crew, many people were sa...

Pernah kan? Inilah manusia dua alam dimana alam maya dan alam realiti dia berbeza umpama langit dan bumi. Ada seorang manusia ni, kita namakan dia XX (bukan nama sebenar). XX ni sering update cerita panjang lebar dalam sosial media dia. Satu gambar dia upload selalu disertakan dengan karangan 2 mukasurat.  Ada sekali dia upload gambar makanan yang diberikan rakan sekerja dia. Mulalah karangan 2 muka surat dia menceritakan mak si anu masak makanan lebih sikit untuk dia, si polan pun bagi makanan. Betapa murahnya rezeki dia dan bertuah dikelilingi kawan-kawan yang baik dan thoughtful. Wahhh kemain. Tapi dalam alam realiti, dia manusia berperangai pelik dan tidak boleh difahami. K...
