Humble

About 5 of us yesterday had breakfast at 2020's and seated a few tables away from us were Datuk Peter Chin,YB Andy Chia & some SUPP party workers taking a break after doing their rounds of shaking hands with everybody that was passing by and also to meet the proprietors of the shops in Pelita commercial Centre. Correct me if I am wrong..I noticed the body language/languages of the some of the people seemed to be showing the 'couldn't care less' attitude. As they shook hands,they did not even look at the face of the candidate who was hoping that they would cast their votes for him. The scenario was an entirely different one as one would normally see when people anxiously let out their hands waiting for a handshake from them .
I got up to have a handshake with Datuk Peter Chin & YB Andy Chia. As usual,Datuk Peter Chin without fail asked for D's well being, as they used to be 'friends' before he became a YB. That,I thought was a very humbling thing to do..to remember friends. Yes, one would be surprised how 'friends' most times when they are already 'somebody' would not acknowledge one's existence. Take for example,used to know some people who later became waibees ...bumped into them when in Kuching,just a handshake & left..did not bother to ask 'how have you been? brapa iko anak seduai nuan diatu? Aku tu beguai,ila kitai betemu baru.' ( well,you know,say things like that lah.) I guess it's true that friendship only lasts when one is in contact with each other..same interests,same tastes,maybe,same political party or rather the right political party. I would like to see Datuk Peter Chin wins because, just by asking me how we're,he shall get -- vote.
This morning,I saw DAP's candidate,Mr. Fong doing his rounds in town seated comfortably in a jeep with flags all over the jeep. My thoughts went back to the time when he contested against YB Andy Chia & how he stood near the Pujut Roundabout waving at motorists passing by. In December,last year,Mr. Fong & a few DAP men even went to somebody's house for the funeral wake. Ha..ha..ha..The things politicians do.....from the cradles to the graves.
