Poor Soul!

Dear Soul ...
For all the good you did helping hundreds ...
You would be stunned to be hit hard by those above you, trapped in an investigation ...
by perhaps former colleagues of yours
When it was said you once had The Force in you ...
and I saw you at your office when you fell ...
How sadly different you looked ...

I was there, in his 4-wheel drive ...
When the conspirator bragged about his successful plan to have taped your conversation with him and later report to the powerful top ...
a sexual harassment case filed by a foreign worker against a local employer ...
and you were said to have given the wrong advice to the victim ...

This man was the prime conspirator to send you packing ...
A man of your race with a burning desire for revenge
For all the contempt, scorn and lack of attention he claimed you had for him and his workers time after time ...
in his business dealings ... and I--
I believed him at that time and the truth was soon revealed many times that he was himself a lying rogue ...
A strong man of grey hair and wrinkles who cheated those who were fooled by his charms and frequent self-declarations of absolute high business ethics ...
Please forgive me for not speaking out, dear heart, but who was I ...
but a passerby in a beautiful land of snow-capped mountains, animals and abundant fruit who has learnt the bitter painful lesson of ever speaking out on social injustice anywhere and suffered much with shattered dreams ...

Great Christmas Song / Performance

This is one of the classic hits in the '70's...I hope it brings back memories to some of you of the older generation and to the new generation, may you wish you were back in those good old days. It was a time of justice, peace and fun for everyone.

Those in authority spoke about racial harmony and tolerance of various multi-racial practices. They walked the walk and talked the talk.

Malaysia was a more tolerant open society with beautiful dreams and visions for many. Bigotry and chauvinism were words that few would have uttered unlike present times when they are so much a part of Malaysian vocabulary. Who the heck is responsible?


This song is What Child is This by The Moody Blues.
