51 years has passed since Independence...
Have our lives been more wealthier living in Malaysia...???
This issue has always came out in poltical debates, advertisements, articles and etc...
Now how do we actually going to gauge the element of wealth...???
By money terms? By education? By professionalism? By ethics? By wisdom?
Seriously... I don't know...
What I know is that generally people tend to gauge it by money terms
i.e. RICHER = WEALTHIER...
As such, most people will always complain that they are getting poorer everyday either because of their children, their parents, their relatives, their friends, their wives, their husbands and even blaming on the government!!!
E.g.

E.g.
- Children entering university without any scholarships or sponsors;
- Freinds owing money;
- Wife buying new shoes;
- husband buying new car;
- fuel price hike; and so on and so forth...
all these will make any one of us to say"ah yeah very poor (no money) la!!!"
now, the question we may need to ask yourself is:
- Is it because of our children going to University that makes us poorer?
- Is it because of my wife buying new shoes every week that makes me no money?
- Is it because of the fuel price hike that makes us more poorer?
If your answer to any of the above questions is a "yes", then maybe you are looking at the whole scenario / problem too shallow...
If your answer to all the above question is "No"....,
Then the next question that you may now want to ask yourself is:-
Who makes me unable to afford my wife new shoes / a new car / cope with the price hike????
Three possible answers
(a) myself
(b) everyone except me
(b) everyone including me
The Right Answer : Idon't know
My Answer... (c)
Why (c) ?
Easy ... following the concept of "you cannot clap with one hand"...
Therefore... no one can make you unable to afford a new car withot your actions / omissions...
I know... I know...
You are still going to blame everyone except yourself because it is the easier way out...
But then if you are able to put down your thick face.... you may have been more richer and more wealthier..........
As for me... I believe that I am wealth eventhough I am not rich (To be precious, I have no money at all, he he he...)
I am wealthy because of what I have currently....
- a caring family;
- a loving girl friend
- a trusty kelisa
- a mighty laptop
- my own mind & body...
With those, I can climbs mountains, swim across oceans and tackle a lion....!!!
and maybe someday i may be rich...
Well,
what I want to put across is that You are wealthy in what you currently have beside you... Therefore, please love it/him/her while it/he/she is still in existence....
Don't blame them because you are poor....
acknowledge your own actions / omission...
The Power is in your hands...
