Terry left behind a great family wife (Mimi), Meghan and Rose (Daugthers) and Tommy (Son), brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, friends...

Aung San Suu Kyi

Aung San Suu Kyi (ASSK) -A world symbol of struggle against oppression, has recently been released from house arrest. Democracy in Myanmar (Burma) is reignited with the release of the much beloved and honoured 1991 Nobel Peace Prize winner from an unjust, oppressive detention.

The military-ruled Myanmar government must take concrete step in providing utmost security to the ASSK. In addition, restoration of a democratic process, returning the right of the people to decide who governs them. It's a long overdue time that the Burmese people should enjoy their country rich and abundant resources.

The government must initiate talks with ASSK and recognised her contribution to the country and restore democracy without any further delay.

The world rejoices with such an icon against oppression! Bravo! Aung San Suu Kyi! You're a gift from heaven!

The predicament unwanted pregnancies

This recent article posted online "The trials of teen mothers" has bring a rather different perspective for reasons leading to child/baby dumping. The mistake might be the same elsewhere but the journey is still much different from the western societies. Traditional asian values still hold unmarried pregnant ladies as disgraced group.

However, the family must realize the universal value of support and love for any family member that has made a mistake, in the case an unwanted pregnancy.

Western values might differ with Eastern values of treating unmarried pregnant family members but it is time for the families in the East to adopt a culture of receptivity and forgiveness and support for a member that fell into the mistake of unwanted pregnancies.

Parents who were too busy in building material wealth have forgone the importance of building a relationship with their children.

Education policies and educators continue to shun the importance sex education.

Society's continue emphasis of the "feel good" factor rather than the "do good" factor is mainly be blamed. Profit-minded culture in business rather than charitable-minded culture. The ever greed for more money and physical pleasure has brought cast a shadow over the good spirit of human nature.

In the end of the day, the ever increasing cases of baby dumping holds everyone in the society accountable that includes myself. Let us all change our heart and minds for society that is caring, loving and charitable.

Baby/ Fetus dumping getting rampant these days in Malaysia

I am disgusted and appalled by such disgrace act, even more when the child is left to die in the trash..etc. Some news link by clicking here.

These babies may be the result of unplanned or unwanted pregnancies by large. But how could some one with so little respect for life! Social illness of rampant wild living without sense of responsibility and regard for life and morality.

Baby dumping is a good indicator of plunging moral values in ones society to the bottom.

I support the call of various NGOs, to criminalize baby dumping and prosecute the offenders for murder if post-mortem reveals that the baby/infant was born alive.

In addition, I support the call for prominent lawyer and opposition leader YB Karpal Singh (Democratic Action Party National Chairman) for capital punishment for the offence of child raping. If not, a life-time imprisonment!

May the Lord have mercies on the soul of these poor innocent children and I am sure He does and loves them dearly in heaven at the very moment.
