Mat Cendana,
I have only met Zana in person, and I've never met her family - so I don't really know for sure why she became how she is now. But I do know for sure that the victims are definitely the innocent children. That is oh so frustrating!

Stealing a few minutes to have a fast read - and send a rare comment... I simply have to say this - you, your self, your humanity... as compared to you, I'd be of a sub-human or troll category.

This woman, Zana - I haven't read about her, but I'll take your word for it - I 'd probably jump the queue to slap her. Reading this post gives me an idea of what/how she is. I'm in a "level" state of mind and self right now, and in this frame, am more tolerant than in "below level" or "depressed/angered"etc.

I also *try* to understand, be in her shoes the best that we possibly can. And there's sympathy - she had suffered/most likely still suffering. The problems with her addict husband, family - the pressure from society No one wants these but they had fallen on her lot in life...

And the child - already 7. An innocent; but imagine what she'll probably go through - the acidic and crushing words about her parents etc from other children, `friends'... And maybe from a few insensitive self-centred teachers too - monkeys that have a teaching diploma, unfortunately...

Anonymous,
Mungkin cikgu tu tak fikir kesannya pada budak tu. Dia ingat tak jadi hal lah kalau bagitau satu dunia budak tu anak angkat. Cikgu macam ni bahaya sikitlah kalau dapat surat beranak budak, ada tulis nama mak tapi kat nama bapak tulis "maklumat tidak diketahui". Confirm lagi tension budak tu nanti.

Yang jadi mangsa... budak yang tak buat salah apa-apa.

One day my child came back from school and asked "Mama Maulad tu apa?". Cikgu dia (guru Darjah 1 satu sekolah di Shah Alam) asyik called one of her friends "A maulad B". Kesian budak tu. Taulah bila bebudak dapat info kenapa how kejam and zalim they can be. Budak tu di 'dera' hatinya dengan teruk sekali. Penjaga budak tu pindahkan budak tu to private school soon after that. Guru apa tu? Sepatutnya tunjuk contoh yang baik. Ini macam sial je.

Cat-in-Sydney,
Actually I'm attending another gathering in PJ for lunch; but if I get to PJ early enough, I may just drop by.

Is your mama taking part? Or is she going to be jumping up and down cheering for her team?

Aunty Pi,
Are you going to a certain bowling event this weekend? *winks*
My Mama could be there too...

Nightwing,
That's what I'm afraid of most... history repeating itself. I wonder how the children themselves will react when one fine day they find out about their life history.

Cat-in-Sydney,
For kitties at least we don't have to worry about "maklumat bapa tidak diketahui" indicated in their birth certs! And cats... errmmm... have no shame.... hahahaha!! (I know I'm not getting any hugs this time!)

Poor children. They are really the victim here.

If nothing is being done while still at this young age...going to be harder when they grow older. It might lead to history repeating itself.

Hope everything will be fine for them as they grow up.

Aunty Pi,
How glad I am that I'm a cat and not a human. It's a totally different ball game over here...To adopt or not to adopt, that's a decision for only those in front of cages at the SPCA...teehee
Anyway, I'm praying for all those babies. Poor things being abandoned by their mamas. We'll know what to do with those irresponsible mamas and papas if they were cats. You know what I'm talking about...any vet can do it. Easy does it, no more irresponsible procreation. purr purr meow...

Sue,
Tu lah pasal... bebudak tu tak salah apa-apa, tak perlulah panggil anak haram kan? Ni nama aje dah buruk benor bunyinya, padahal bukan dia yang buat hal. And kalau ye pun anak haram, kalau baik didikan, mau dia grow up nanti jadi jauh lebih baik dari manusia-manusia yang ingat depa dah cukup baik tu...

2009-07-13T09:06:26.831+08:00

bebudak tu tak salah apa-apa. the problem in our society is that we label people so easily. so what if that child is anak haram or anak halal. it's just a child, period.

Farina,
In this case, neighbours belum mengata lagi, orang yang berkenaan dah malu siap-siap dah... entahlah, maybe sebab dia pun akan pandang rendah kat orang if that person has to face the same situation.

By right, in cases like these, we should help guide whoever (people like Zana and Sharifah) so that depa tak tersesat terus. Kalau dia betul-betul taubat, and kita pulak terus-menerus asyik nak mengata orang, harus lah dia dulu masuk syurga dulu dari kita.

As for the child, budak tu tak salah apa, he/she definitely should not be looked down upon and the grandparents or whoever the guardians should not be ashamed to admit their family relationship with the child.

2009-07-12T23:48:12.748+08:00

These shame-driven mentality of us malays (mostly) have got to stop esp when it involves a child's life. neighbours pun bilalah nak berhenti mengata orang? macam lah life diorang tu any better. dah sure ke masuk syurga nak mengata orang lain? grrr.
