May Nurin rest in peace .......

Yesterday, little Nurin Jazlin was laid to rest. May she rest in peace.

The news of her death and how she died shook the nation, imagine how the family suffered with the news. Her parents finally came to accept the fact of their little daughter's death.

During lunch time, some of us were discussing this tragedy. My colleague, who is also a father of two young daughters, was condemning what kind of person can be so cruel to a little child. He was determined that never to let his little girls out of his sight.

" I wont even allow them to go to the padang at our housing area without adult supervision."

That is how determined he is to protect his kids. And it is understandable, given the crazy world we lived in.

He reminiscence the childhood he had, where he was free to wander around nearby neighbours house and play around at nearby freely. Back in those days, these freedom were taken for granted. Today, children are no longer have the privilege of wandering freely.

Imagine what else that we have taken for granted today, would in the future be a privilege. Malaysia seems to be going backwards in our social environment.
