Hidden Memories with Abang Sabri

Today, Abang Sabri came over to the house as he will be returning to the village on Wednesday, 18 September 2024. The wood-pulling project in Kedah has been completed, so he stopped by here for a while as he waits for the day of his departure.

Unexpectedly, our conversation brought back old memories. During our chat about life experiences, Abang Sabri shared stories about mama and father when we were young, especially when we lived in Kampung Arongan Table Estate. We stayed in a hut built by father and mama, filled with spirit and love. However, behind it all, there were also those who were envious and tried to evict us from that land.

Abang Sabri's story was truly touching. From noon until the Maghrib call to prayer echoed, we continued talking, reminiscing about the past. Our eyes almost welled up as we listened to each memory being recounted. How strong and loving mama and father were in taking care of us, despite the challenging circumstances.

Al-Fatihah for our beloved mama, the late Bunga Binti Suddin. The memories with them will forever live in our hearts.

Review of the Movie "Upstream" (Chinese): The Journey of a Fighter

Image
Upstream is an extraordinary movie that touches the heart and inspires the soul. The story follows a man who is forced to become an online motorcycle taxi (ojol) driver after losing his job due to a layoff and struggling to find new employment because of his age. This film provides a profound depiction of the daily struggles faced by ojol drivers, especially in delivering food and packages. With a blend of touching, humorous, and empowering moments, Upstream invites us to understand the immense challenges these individuals endure. Although I have lived in Malaysia and Indonesia and am not entirely sure how the lives of food delivery drivers here are, this film opened my eyes to the universal hardships of their work. The ojol drivers portrayed in this story are not people chasing wealth. They work tirelessly to meet basic needs, such as paying monthly house installments to avoid losing their homes. Come rain or shine, dealing with rude customers, or facing the risk of accidents—these ar...
