Misi ke 3 ASA

The 3rd mission will leave this evening.The team will be meeting a few families and giving a few stuffs as requested.

Lin will be setting up the pusat sumber at one of the schools.She managed to raise RM4K worth of books from her friends in addition to funds raised by ASA.

The mini bus departed at 6 pm with only me, Kak Ngah (I invited her to join us since she biasa buat misi bantuan and GM is like one of her playing grounds too) and Lin.The rest were still busy with correcting theses, vivas etc.Mmg ramai wanted to go initially.Dr Alias and Dr Maszlee went separately in their own cars (Dr Alias convoy with us.His Hilux pun penuh dgn buku2 Lin).Dr M and his students bertolak at 4 am.The three of us shared a nice hotel room next to MRA's gudang.Dr. Alias slept thr with MRA man, Fadhil.

Our hotel tu murah but mcm 4 star..semua ada..wifi, astro TV, iron, coffee tea biscuits, air panas system, air-con, ubat nyamuk!And it's very clean.We loved it.Syukur alhamdulillah for the comfort.

Besoknya on Saturday, we went for breakfast at the pasar.We had nasi kerabu with daging bakar.I also had nasi lemak.Then we went to buy some mosquito nets cos' tak sempat nak beli in KL.I doubt if anyone sold it in KL.Tak cukup for the no. requested by our groundman.Beli semua stock.

We first went to the primary sch to hand over Lin's books.Met a few people who mengadu pengagehan tidak adil.Pengagehan kepartian.One cleaner was almost in tears.She saw the tilam in our mini bas and asked if she could have one.We said we had allocated those for a group of wargamas.I gave her some money (tak sempat pi bank so tak dpt nak bagi banyak to ease her pain) and advised her not to despair over people's lack of assistance.I told her: minta kpd Allah sahaja kerana rezeki comes from Him. She said ya, ya.

Selepas itu, we went to the pusat banjir where the targetted recipients were already waiting.We gave what was requested.I wanted to see the wargamas who didn't turn up.So Nazli took us to a few homes in our kampung angkat Kg Limau Kasturi.A look of calm and serenity..in all of them! All of us felt good making this personal touch as we spoke with Mek Yang, Poksu Pa, Mek Wan Jah etc.We also met a lady whose 3 gen of kopitiam biz was destroyed in the flood.Teh ais limau dia the best I had ever had.The group agreed we should help her rebuild her biz.She cuma perlu RM10k modal.

Then! We met Suhaimi, jaguh paralympic negara -olahraga.His last overseas game was in Seoul in 2012 and he's still winning golds at national level for Kelantan.Ada sesiapa kisah? Not even Kementerian Sukan tampil ke hadapan tolong buat rumah dia balik! Tapi wajah dia tetap senyum.MRA tolong buatkan rumah dia to save him and a pregnant wife and a 4 year old son from staying in the tent...rumah sementara frm plywood and Suhaimi himself helps MRA to rebuild other people's homes.I felt like crying over this story.Sometimes we can be so insensitive and cruel over the needy.Masih nyenyakkah pemimpin kita tidur apabila ramai rakyat masih tidak berumah?
