Randau ba pondok di Bulatan Park (1)

Kami sebuat,munyi ko gramong, enti udah badu ngeliling Bulatan Park,kami sebuat lalu duduk ba pondok berandau ke utai ke bisi nyadi. Nyadi topik kami kemari maioh bendar,start ari:
1. Sunday BPOST pasal duit EPF;pros & cons of EPF to pension scheme.
A friend said he would take it easy next year when he turns 55 & gets his RM 500,000 from EPF. Could he afford to take it easy? Indai Horn said that she's happy with her pension next year..not much but at least there's some cash every month. A said he's OMM while everybody is OKK. (Orang Miskin Miskin & Orang Kaya Kaya)
2. The translation of the Chinese writing on the wall of a kopitiam at Poh Kwong Park,Kuching which goes like this:' A man's greatest REGRET is not spending all his money before he dies. A man's greatest TRAGEDY is spending all his money and still goes on living.'
Which catergory would I fall into? The second one, I would think.
3. A lady I used to know died last year at 56 years of age because of some complications being diabetic. Her husband had the shock of his life when he discovered she had RM1m in savings. You see, her husband's a lot older than her,so she probably thought it wise to do savings for rainy days. Yes, the sun doesn't always shine, the rain must surely come another day. Pity she died before her husband.
4.Health & Sickness: I'll continue later..bedau breakfast.

Oh Diana!

Hi Diana, We only got to see your comment yesterday. Funny how we can 'meet' by blogging. Your abang Wit has a blog but no entry yet..probably waiting for 'inspiration'..cheh.! Ani also reads this blog..don't know whether Seripah reads this blog though I do see a Japanese flag once in a while at the FeedJit box. I assume it's her because Mak Aling told us that she's moved to Japan...otherwise who else in Japan would want to read the blog,kan & who else in the US would read this blog if not you or Kumang,kan. Ha..ha.. How's Kumang? Hope all of you are doing fine there.
We're doing fine here. We went to Kuching sometime in November,did not manage to see your parents because it was raining throughout our 3 day stay there and needless to say, your chey chey Judy was the driver throughout our stay there. She's busy helping Angking running the B&B. Her job scope includes fetching tourists to & from airport,hands the keys to check- in guests ( by internet booking only) & machine- washes the bed linens. AMU on the run! She just came back from London when we met;abang Wit said chey chey Judy just got back doing 'family service' ( looking after her chuchu Christopher...Christopher this..Christopher that...I could hear/feel the 'LOVE' vibratingfrom her voice when she cerita to me about Christopher).
We had a late night drink with Mak Aling & Sue. The next day,we visited Gen. Now abang Wit doesn't have to go to Kuching for his eye check because Miri General Hospital has an eye specialist now. My cerita almost coming to an end. I have to go for now. take care!

Guess who that bared-back 'lady' is ?

For regulars of Yamano's hair salon,please guess who that 'lady' is? (back facing us)

Yang Yang & Hie Hie's wedding reception

A very happy Mr. & Mrs. Yeo,towkay & towkay neo (proprietors) of GK Supermarket smiling away, seeing their eldest son ,Yang Yang,ending his bachelorhood. How do I look? How do I look? Do I look funny? asked Mr. Yeo who had not been seen in a suit for quite a while, seeking assurance from us to restore his confidence. You look fine, Mr. Yeo & I must say, Mrs. Yeo looks like a filmstar from channel Wah Lai Toi.


An excited Hie Hie & Yang Yang,officially called 'Lau Po' & 'Lau Kong'. (old woman & Old Man...or just plain 'wife & husband')

Yang Yang & Hie Hie,celebrating,after professing their 'Wa Ai Ni' to each other after a little bit of coaching from the MC.

Hospital Visit

My friends & I went to the hospital just now hoping to see how Belayong was getting on but on reaching the ward,we were told he was discharged the previous day. The nurses said that be it at home or at the hospital his condition would be the same,so they might as well let him go home.
Once one reaches the hospital,there is never lack of people that one knows who are sick. While looking for Belayong, we saw Indai Erie who was standing by her father's bedside. Her father is Pemancha Eddie of Brit, Marudi, who complained of stomache ache (pecah perut,ko Indai Erie),was rushed to Miri,operated on and now is still oxygen dependent with mask over his face, conscious but still in great pain.
Next bed was an Indonesian ( I was tempted to write 'Indon' only... in case Bapak Susilo gets to read my blog) probably in his late teens,had his hand handcuffed to the side of the bed with 2 policemen keeping a watch over him. My heart 'dropped' at the sight of the boy in that condition. Wonder what offence did he commit? Probably a snatch thief or was he on the run from the police for being an illegal immigrant,got himself injured & hence landed in hospital. ???
O Lord Jesus, please grant speedy recovery to all who are sick in the hospital and at home,heal them & not forgetting the Indonesian boy..you know his problems..guide him on to the right path. In your precious name, we pray. Amen.
