An Alumni ...

 

26^th Feb. 2011 was a historic day for Sekolah Kebangsaan (National School) Lipat Kajang, the primary school which once upon a time was known as Sekolah Melayu (Malay School) Lipat Kajang.  Whatever its called or was called, it serves the same purpose, to give the young children of 6 years old to 12 years old some education, an introduction to formal education Malaysian style.

I went to that school when it was opened in late 1940s and I left it in 1952 to go to a secondary school out of town. And I came back, with many of my colleague of almost the same time for that alumni gathering on 26 Feb. 2011. For all of us I believe it was a historical day, a day when we remembered the old days when we first gathered in that school just to get educated. And we left to roam the world ‘educated’ and ‘street wise’.

What we did at the gathering on the 26^th Feb. 2011 was immaterial but the fact that there were more than a hundred attended was considered a success, males and females, from all over the country.  It was one of the most difficult task for the organisers to gather such a vast and diverse crowd whose common interest was SKLK (or SMLK in the old days). To the organisers we convey our appreciation, not only to get a suitable date, a suitable venue and to ensure that there was enough food and drinks to go around.  And the most difficult part was to keep the crowd interested. And this the organisers did very well.

And to those alumni who did not turn up, you have missed something that happens only on rare occasions.

Thank you again to all, former pupils, former teachers, present pupils, present teachers, and the kampong folks who gave their time and energy to ensue the success of the event. And not forgetting those who donated money and material.

And to those alumni who has already left us, we give our doa to them, and may Allah SWT keep them among those who are blessed.

When a by-election came to Lipat Kajang.

Every body was sad when their State Council representative passed away,  but that sadness did not last very long, as they say the soil at the graveyard has not yet turned dried when the Government announced that a by-election was to take place to replace that representative. And a by-election always means 'wealth' and 'development' to the kampong. Sickening really but that is the reality of life, an opportunity to make the society wealthy shall not be bypassed.

So the political parties chose their candidates and the campaigning began. And that party where and who has unlimited wealth started to promise the earth to win the election. The earth they did promised and every VVIP came flying into the village bringing along with them the 'earth'. Another sickening happenings. And the people had high expectations, hungry for 'wealth' and hungry for 'development. Like wolves they came in pack to and for  the VVIP. Its a festive time while it lasted, sickening and almost not even remembering the one who had just passed away.

In a by-election there is always two sides contesting, but the other candidate being poorer and not having the support of the Government of the day just only needed to look on forlorn, trying his best not to 'bribe' his voters. And dirty tactics are employed where each can, morality and dignity and ethic mostly thrown to the dogs.

The write up was done a few days prior to the voting day.
