Bahagiamu Deritaku - Hafiz

Bahagiamu Deritaku - Hafiz Ku dengar kau cinta sangat padanya Ku dengar hatimu kini miliknya Dia kan menjadi teman sehidup dan semati Aku menjadi sahabatmu Siksanya mengakui kau teman biasa Terpaksa ku terima itu hakikatnya Yang pasti aku tak mahu lupakan cinta Kau percik api membakar kenangan lama Aku tak tahu menilai cintamu Aku tak mampu pertahankan Tinggalkanku, perlahan-lahan ku trima Semakin ku sakit, semakin kau bahgia Mengapakah aku jadi lemah Sungguh ku tak sangka dia membawa jantungku bersamamu Yang pasti aku tak mau lupakan cinta Kau percik api membakar kenangan lama Aku tak tahu menilai cintamu Aku tak mampu pertahankan Tinggalkanku, perlahan-lahan ku trima Semakin ku sakit, semakin kau bahgia Mengapakah aku jadi lemah Sungguh ku tak sangka dia membawa jantungku bersamamu, bersamamu Mengapakah aku jadi lemah Sungguh ku tak sangka dia membawa jantungku bersamamu Sumber : liriklagumuzika

Something to ponder

Dear Prime Minister, Since 2 January, our country has once again plunged into the "Allah" chaos, a unique scenario that can be found only in Malaysia. The whole world is laughing at us but that doesn't bother me. What bothers me is this question that keeps lingering in my mind: where does the future lie? It breaks my heart when I see our country wasting time fighting over the name of God instead of focusing on saving the declining quality of education, the lack of opportunities for the young and the many thousands of rural villages in Sabah and Sarawak that are still deprived of basic necessities. It also breaks my heart when I see the bond we built as a nation since independence now on the verge of ruin. The gaps between us have just become wider. We have now a situation in Malaysia where someone may have to accept permanent state of inferiority and find himself more like an exile in his own land. This is surely not what our forefathers wanted when they first st

Bearing flowers, Datin Paduka Marina Mahathir was among some Muslims who turned up at the Our Lady of Lourdes Church. – The Malaysian Insider pic, January 5, 2014. Nearly 1,000 Catholics turned up for Sunday mass at the Our Lady of Lourdes Church in Klang, Selangor, this morning expecting an angry mob of Muslims protesting against the possible use of the word Allah in prayers but instead, met a group bearing flowers. Among the few Muslims who turned up was social activist Datin Paduka Marina Mahathir, who brought a bouquet of flowers, and was part of a group expressing solidarity with the Christians. The daughter of former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad lambasted Putrajaya over its inaction and told it to forget about the ambitious Visit Malaysia Year launched with much fanfare last night. "Who wants to visit a Malaysia like this where there is no moderation? "Hardly an example of moderation, we are now known as a country which grabs Bibles," she said

JAIS has no right to raid Bible Society of Malaysia premises, says council of churches

The Selangor Islamic authorities do not have the authority to raid the premises of the Bible Society of Malaysia (BSM), said the Council of Churches of Malaysia (CCM). Saying they were alarmed by the Selangor Islamic Religious Department's (Jais) raid today on BSM where they confiscated over 300 Bibles in Malay and Iban, CCM general-secretary Rev Dr Hermen Shastri said that the Federal Constitution guaranteed the right of religious communities in the country to freely profess and administer their affairs. "The Prime Minister, Selangor Menteri Besar and all Christian lawmakers should act immediately to stop such actions and further raids," he said in a statement issued more than two hours after the controversial raid.
