Of course Makcik and I will never forget you throughout your difficult time, before and after you dad's passing. May Allah bless him. You are one of the pride of Almanar, a mechanical engineer who chose to follow Pakcik's footsteps.<br /><br />Bring back a Bugis boy/girl to KT for a holiday!

He is the uncle who guided me before and after the loss of a father. He lent me a hand, when villagers distanced themselves away, and inspired and gave me the drive. May God give lasting mercy on uncle, aunty and family.

Thank you for your comment on my comment....Pak Cik,<br />Thank you for your comment on my comment. I’m actually a “tough” man having been an orphan since I was 10 years old. Hard life during childhood toughened me up greatly, both physically and emotionally. Few can match the hard life I went through. For example, I only had a table for study at home when I was in Form 4. I studied for my LCE in 1967 (the first batch to sit for objective type of exam) without the benefit of a table to do my writing or reading. I believe very few could beat that! Coupled with my work experience (mostly enforcement in nature, though not in uniform) and association with seamen (they are a tough bunch of sailors!), I become a “tough” man. Thus, it’s not easy for me to shed tears. However, I do have soft spots, very few though. One of them is when talking about parents’ death.<br /><br />Idris MamatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31195147.post-47839615976394229842014-10-20T23:59:21.764+08:002014-10-20T23:59:21.764+08:00Dear Idris,
