-in my so called rich state...

Church sends out SOS over food crisis in Sarawak interior

By STEPHEN THEN


MIRI: The Catholic Church here has sent out an urgent appeal to the public to help little children and adults who are facing acute food shortage in the remote Kapit Division in central Sarawak.

The food shortage in the Kapit Division has worsened and the people have sent out another appeal for immediate help.

The Miri Catholic Church, which has received urgent appeal from the folks there, is urging parishioners and the public to help these people who are living from hand to mouth every day.

“The children are the most badly affected by the food shortage.

“We appeal to the public to donate to these rural people who are in need,” he said.

***************************************************

this is my rich state, proud for its oil and gas, timber and tourism,

and this is reality,

where there are still people who barely could eat per plate in a day,

wth are the leaders really doing?

after years of independence, the government still couldn't afford to give the people enough food,

ironic,

especially for those who really in need of it,

their natives land being robbed, their rights are being ignored,

what more can i say,

i believe this is not new,

well, this is my state,

and this is the glorious one Malaysia!

while others think we are living in such a rich country,

they forget about these people....

they really forget...

How I wish they really forget staind - then, at least, we can impose into our so-called brilliant leaders 2nd chance.

Problem is, they intentionally being forgetful and ransacking our own precious land for themselves and their cronies.

I sincerely don't mind if these desperate politicians were to take part from it - they are humans after all - but, this is too much.

Logically, can someone who keeps on repeating the same mistakes now and then be called forgetful? once a while yes but gradually, that's obviously on purpose.

I've babbled too much - u know, when it comes to this topic.

Nway, gd day 2 u.
