They Should Respect Our Religion

I often have my breakfast with my parents at Restoran Alam Berkat if I am to work at NSTP Bangsar,or on weekdays when I need to use the car,I will usually follow them to work and drive back home.

 I never have issues with other races and other people,personally. And that's because we live in a peaceful country,our beloved Malaysia. This fact should be respected,no matter what it takes. However,few weeks back,I did notice something unusual at the stall we used to stop by. None of the workers,nor the owner are Muslims,yet they don't feel guilty to display the verses/surah from the Holy Quran inside their restaurant. This does bother me a lot,as if their misuse of it is legally accepted by the customers,the Muslims in particular.



I mean no disrespect to others,but when it comes to Holy Quran,I am pretty sure that one must not misuse just to attract customers who are Muslims. I do admit however I was shocked at first,but this is not the first time I encountered such case.

To Be Grateful

I was in Bandung on the 25th-29th April with my family. We were on a vacation there. A lot did we shop,till we drop,as expected earlier. As that was my first visit,both Bandung and Jakarta,I was impressed by the way the people welcome tourists. They were very polite and helpful indeed. However,socioeconomically,sadly to say,they are still behind us,even though we share the same mother tongue. I even tried to avoid bypassing little girls carrying their little sister at night begging for money as I couldn't accept the fact how poor and hard their lives are in this modern day.




Other people from other country might see Malaysia as a developing country,but to compare what we have today with those people in Indonesia,we are far more better. Yet,still there are some of the Malaysians keep on complaining how hard it is to survive on their own land. Grateful is something we've been taught before,easy to say,but very hard to practice.
