In my mailbox last night,
Dear Ladies, In conjunction with International Women’s Day, xxxxx (a news portal) joins the celebration to commemorate this special occasion with all our female subscribers. To recognize your efforts, YOU can now subscribe to xxxxxxx at ONLY RM 100.00 per year and SAVE RM 50.00! (Normal one year standard subscription is RM 150.00)
Well, we have way past women's day. And my subscription expires a few months from now.
I have been busy - very busy. My day begins at 5 am and ends at 10 pm or beyond. From 5 am to 9 am, it's my own time. Amazed I still have four hours! I thank God for the four hours. After 9 am to 10 pm, I am working...
We speculate that the announcement to dissolve DUN is Monday, 21st March. And polling date early April.
Meanwhile, as the journalists "battle", this one for women and for all who need to keep afloat -
One day, three men were hiking and unexpectedly came upon a large raging, violent river. They needed to get to the other side, but had no idea of how to do so. The first man prayed to God, saying, “Please God, give me the strength to cross this river.” Poof! God gave him big arms and strong legs, and he was able to swim across the river in about two hours, after almost drowning a couple of times.
Seeing this, the second man prayed to God, saying, “Please God, give me the strength .. and the tools to cross this river.” Poof! God gave him a rowboat and he was able to row across the river in about an hour, after almost capsizing the boat a couple of times.
The third man had seen how this worked out for the other two, so he also prayed to God saying, “Please God, give me the strength and the tools .. and the intelligence … to cross this river.” And Poof! God turned him into a woman. She looked at the map, hiked upstream a couple of hundred yards, then walked across the bridge.
Flagging off The Borneo Post Adventure Team (BAT) earlier. BAT completed their 3 -weeks mission impossible travelling to every corner of Sarawak and Oops! they also travelled to Labuan and Brunei. They crossed many rivers too, I believe, with no difficulty as there was a lady team member!
