Fallen Heroes

DARAH PAHLAWANKU 

Pergimu diiringi doa restu
Berbekalkan doa dan harapan nusa dan bangsa
Moga dirimu selamat dan musuh akan tumpas 

Demi kedaulatan negara
Tanggungjawab harus dilaksanakan
Sumpah dan Janjimu sebagai perwira negara digalas


Hanya Tuhan yang tahu gelodak dijiwamu wahai perwira
Dikala dirimu berdepan dengan musuh
Biar matamu dirobek-robek
Biar badanmu ditembusi peluru
Biar badanmu dikerat seribu
Semangat juangmu tidak terbanding hingga ke titisan darah yang terakhir

Terpahat namamu dalam sejarah
Gugurmu demi kedaulatan negara
Tumpahnya darahmu di bumi Lahad Datu
Melayangnya nyawamu di bumi Semporna

Engkaulah perwira
Engkaulah pahlawan

My special and humble dedication to the fallen heroes from the VAT69, PGA and 2 army personnel in the Lahad Datu and Semporna tragedy.  Semoga roh kalian dicucuri rahmat hendaknya dan ditempatkan dikalangan orang-orang yang beriman and may your soul rest in peace dear soldier.

I share their sorrows and I can understand their grieve and sadness,  as my father was formerly a commando himself back in the 70s and 80s, my father had his share of fighting with the communists then (he was badly hurt in one of the ops). I am proud of them all.

Bahasa Melano Balingian

-
My trip to Miri not only gave me the opportunity to reunite with old friends that I missed dearly but I also took the golden opportunity to learn more about my dad's language. My dad is a Melanau from Kpg Suyong, Balingian. Their melanau dialect differs from the rest of the Melanau dialects from Mukah, Oya, Rejang, Dalat, Matu, Igan & Bintulu. Sad to say that this particular dialect is slowly disappearing. Even my aunt Regina or fondly known as Usu Ina who is married to a melanau from Bintulu is at loss with her own Balingian dialect at times. So far, I've noticed that only my dad, my first cousins Lai & Kak Senah are still speaking this beautiful dialect fluently. Usu Ina converse mostly in the Mukah dialect and I observed that she would refer to Lai if she was not sure of the language itself. My dad and his siblings back in Balingian still converse in their own dialect but once they are out of their kampung, they would converse in the Mukah dialect again. Mmmmmmmmmmm.

Finally, I get to watch Ombak Rindu (OR) with friends last night. So here goes my review on the movie. 1) The scenery is simply fantastic and I just can’t help admiring the beautiful sceneries. It was indeed a sight to behold. So a beach-lover like me definitely enjoys and love all the beautiful sceneries. 2) Loved Hariz’s kampong house…byk modern facilities tapi nang kacaklah rumah ya.. 3) Dari mula sampei abis filem ya, the kitten doesn’t seem to grow up....go figure that out!!!…. 4) As expected some of my favourite scene in the novel was scrapped off especially bab Hariz n Izzah, there are quite a few intimate scenes (those who’ve read the novel knows, yang belum baca, sila beli dan baca k);I guess writer/director chose not to put those in the movies for sensitivity reasons and I think AA would want to think twice before acting certain scenes especially some intimate scenes with MK. 5) The OST was simply superb and the duet song by Hafiz AF7 and Adira AF8 complemented

Thoughts and rambles

It's been a while since my last posting.   Year in year out, I think I have such a boring life.  Initially, when I started this blog, I wanted to be a food blogger and sharing my passion for cooking and baking.  Before the existence of FB, blogging was the thing then.  I thought of trying to be one and yes, the first few years of blogging I was actively blogging, practically about everything. And then some turn in my life affected me so much that I began to drift away for a while.  Pic credit to Google.
