BETUL ke dah buat keputusan yang BETUL? Biar BETUL..

A group of children were playing near two railway tracks, one still in use while the other disused.
Only one child played on the disused track, the  rest on the operational track.

The train is coming, and you are just beside the track interchange.
You can make the train change its course to the disused track and save most of the kids.
However, that would also mean the lone child playing by the disused track would be sacrificed.
Or would you rather let the train go its way?    

Let's take a pause to think what kind of decision we could make........ ........

Most people might choose to divert the course of the train, and sacrifice only one child.

You might think the same way, I guess.

Exactly, to save most of the children at the expense of only one child was rational decision most people would make, morally and emotionally.

But, have you ever thought that the child choosing to play on the disused track had in fact made the right decision to play at a safe place?

Nevertheless, he had to be sacrificed because of his ignorant friends who chose to play where the danger was.

This kind of dilemma happens around us everyday.
In the office, community, 
in politics and especially in a democratic society,
the minority is often sacrificed for the interest of the majority,
no matter how foolish or ignorant the majority are, and how farsighted and knowledgeable the minority are. The child who chose not to play with the rest on the operational track was sidelined.


If the train was diverted, that lone child would definitely die because he never thought the train could come over to that track! Moreover, that track was not in use probably because it was not safe.

If the train was diverted to the track, we could put the lives of all passengers on board at stake!

And in your attempt to save a few kids by sacrificing one child, you might end up sacrificing hundreds of people to save these few kids.

While we are all aware that life is full of tough decisions that need to be made, we may not realize that hasty decisions may not always be the right one.

'Remember that what's right isn't always popular... and what's popular isn't always right.'  

Everybody makes mistakes; that's why they put erasers on pencils. 
  
And in the case he was sacrificed, no one would shed a tear for him 


The great critic Leo Velski Julian who told the story said he would not try to change the course of the train because he believed that the kids playing on the operational track should have known very well that track was still in use,  and that they should have run away if they heard the train's sirens..

Universal Studio Malaysia?

Melaka nak buat taman tema ala-ala Universal Studio pulak dah. Namanya Laman Seni Film City. Kiranya macam Universal Studio ni.. 

"MELAKA: Sebuah taman tema ala-Disneyland dan Universal Studio akan dibangunkan di negeri ini dengan kos kira-kira RM300 juta dalam usaha membantu kerajaan meningkatkan industri pelancongan negara, khususnya di Melaka.

Projek Laman Seni Film City ini, akan dibangunkan Fine Leisure Development Sdn Bhd, anak syarikat Kumpulan Eurofine di tapak seluas 21.668 hektar di Bandar Hijau, Hang Tuah Jaya, berhampiran Plaza Tol Ayer Keroh.
Pengarah Urusan Kumpulan Eurofine, Ida Rahayu Md Noor berkata, projek itu yang diilhamkan pihaknya pada 2000, akan dimulakan pembinaannya awal tahun depan dan dijangka dapat disiapkan dalam tempoh tiga tahun."

Malasla nak komen. Jangan jadi projek gajah putih dah la...nanti terbiar macam tu je. Harap nya projek ni menjadi ye. Boleh jadi salah satu benda yang boleh menarik pelancong ke Melaka.

Rindu

Pagi ni saya kelam kabut. Macam orang anak sepluh. Sana sini kemas barang Ahmad - masak nasik Ahmad - siapkan Ahmad - siap diri sendiri bedak bersopak2 - siapkan susu Ahmad.

*Betul...seploh tolak sembilan = sorang*.

Cik abang saya berkursus di KL. Saya di Melaka bertemankan Ahmad.

"Ahmad..jom kita makan.."
"ermm..."

"Ahmad, jom kita tengok tv.."
"kakak..kakak..kakak.."

"Ahmad..temanla mama iron baju.."
"atetete.."

Heran juga Ahmad sebut perkataan "kakak" dengan elok. Ntah apala maksudnya. Harapnya maksud yang elok aje. Aminnnn....

Syukur, cuma kursus 3 hari. Kalaulah 3 bulan, saya kena berusaha keras masuk kelas untuk belajar bahasa Ahmad, supaya ada komunikasi dua hala..lol

Senarai benda nak dibuat pun cik abang dah tampal di suis lampu sebelum dia bertolak, apa yang perlu bawa, apa yang perlu buat.

Buang sampah - tutup suis iron - masak nasik Ahmad - bawa botol susu Ahmadpasang ubat nyamuk - jangan lupa beg duit, hp mama - air cond set cuma 27c angin satu bar ..^ - ^ ...hihi..ye, seriously, itulah ayatnya..

Sesungguhnya suami saya memang pelengkap diri saya yang sangat kelam ni.. : P
