Hangat mengenai LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN tu kan? Daku tidak mahu komen lebih2..cuma daku sangat kagum dengan jawapan beliawanis 25 tahun ini,
Fiqa Mohammad. Baca sampai habis dan anda pasti setuju! Komen ini mungkin akan muncul di semua akhbar di Malaysia since her hubby nk hantar pada semua akhbar untuk publish!
Listen..
Listen.. Listen.. well listen.. there is a reason why we have to pay
for our education, because there is a value to knowledge.. We put value
to it so that people will appreciate education.. it is irrelevant to
compare and contrast Malaysia with countries like Argentina, Brazil etc.
Those are poor countries, where the rich ones are either drug mafias or
football players..
So listen, listen,
listen.. education is free over there, when the country could have
spend it on developing the nation. Ask yourselves, is that what you want
in a country? What is the value of striving hard for education
achievements when everybody is rewarded equally? Why should my child
study harder than yours, when there is no such thing as having to strive
for JPA scholarship, Petronas, Maxis etc etc?
Of PTPTN , My
family could afford sending me for my first degree without having to
apply for PTPTN, but i choose to apply for it because i would not want
to trouble my parents for my fees and expenses. I finished my degree on
time, worked for a year, kept enough money to continue with my Masters,
and Yes, there were hard times. But there is a value to knowledge, and I
am willing to pay. I am willing to work from 9am to 6pm and attend
classes from 6.30pm to 10pm. With God's will, I have sat for my last
paper last Sunday and I am anxiously waiting for the results to complete
my Masters in Corporate Law. I had worked very hard for the past 2
years, juggling my time as a student and as a worker, spending money to
travel up and down, my notes my assignments - all of which needs
money..but it paid off, for every hardship Allah promises the reward.
Alhamdulillah, I have a good job, my office is a happy place to be, at
25 years old I earn more than double what others my age earn. The amount
I invested in my degree and masters education is more than paid off.
And yes, every single cent of financing my education comes from hard
work.
Listen..listen..listen.. Free education is available in
Malaysia. Score 4 flats and PTPTN would be more than happy to waive your
study loan. Spend more time studying rather than rallying, and the loan
is waived. Effort and Reward. Muslims should be familiar with the
concept. The same goes to all sect of faith.
Complain..complain..complain..
It is sad to see that some of us only know how to complain. Instead of
asking ourselves, what have we contributed to the nation, we keep on
asking ourselves, what have not the country give to us. If this is the
same mindset our forefathers had, we would have never achieved
independence. But no, some of our great grandmothers gave away their
jeweleries, mortgaged their lands for the sake of the countries
independence. Sad that people of this generation are willing to
jeopardize the nation's social, and economy stability for the political
recognition of some. Add value to life, add value and be rich. Rich as
in not only monetarily rich, but rich in values, good morale and
happiness.
Listen.. Listen.. I have heard from some that "we
have to fight our way because we are deprived of our rights and freedom
and etc". As far as 25 years of my life is concerned, never have i not
been able to perform my Solah because of the government's restriction.
Never have i not been able to go out and spend good times with my loved
ones. My right to speak? Well, that is for me to position myself, am i
talking with deep knowledge or am i just talking craps. Yet, I have no
problem in expressing how I feel. Write to the PM if you have to, use
the social media if you have to, but do it wisely, do it with knowledge
and understanding of the outcome and result. Do not provoke if what you
want to achieve is to be heard and respected.
Listen.. thats
what my parents had always said to me when I need to be reminded, or I
need to be corrected, or when I need to take up the responsibility
towards my wrongful actions. They tell me to listen. And boy had I not
been a rebellious juvenile those days.. but I was nurtured well, because
I was often told to listen. As I grow, I understand the need to listen
to those who knows better. I learn to respect the elderly and appreciate
them more for their experience, knowledge and it always starts by just
listening to what they have to say.
Parents being parents,
would only want the best for their children. Would we only want to care
and show love to our parents when they are old and gray? Well I dont, I
tell them everyday I love them and from my actions, my parents know how
much they I care for them.
The same goes to the nation, must
we only show love when it withers away with breeze of hatred,
shallowness of mentality and the refusal to acknowledge of
responsibility? The answer lies within yourselves.
So, Yes, there are times in life when you should just stop in track and LISTEN.
