A Thousand Miles

Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd

And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight

It's always times like these
When I think of you
And I wonder
If you ever
Think of me

'Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong
Living in your
Precious memories

'Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight

And I, I
Don't want to let you know
I, I
Drown in your memory
I, I
Don't want to let this go
I, I
Don't....

Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd

And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass us by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you...

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
If I could
Just hold you
Tonight

Mafia State III

This is the BIG news during Muslim celebration in Malaysia. Banting seem to be in the Mafia list also.

BANTING (Sept 12, 2010): Cosmetic millionaire Datuk Sosilawati Lawiya, 47, and three others have been murdered and their bodies burnt and ashes strewn at a river near Ladang Gadong, in Tanjong Sepat, hear here, police said.
Bukit Aman CID director Datuk Seri Mohd Bakri Zinin said however that police still needed the forensic confirmation to fully ascertain the matter.
He was speaking at a news conference at Banting police headquarters here.

Three others were Sosilawati's driver Kamaruddin Shamsudin, 44, CIMB Kampung Baru bank officer Noorhisham Mohammad, 38, and her personal lawyer Ahmad Kamil Abdul Karim, 32.

They were reported missing since Aug 30 after going here for a land purchase deal.


Earlier, a police forensic team arrived at the farm in Tanjong Sepat near here around noon, bringing with them two men in lock-up attire, believed to be among those picked up in connection with the disappearance of Sosilawati and three others.

The media, who were at the entrance of the Ladang Gadong integrated farm, saw two convoys of police cars entering the site with at least two men in lock-up attire inside.

A policeman said they were taken to a site about 100m from the main road, believed to be part of the investigations into the disappearance of Sosilawati, the founder of Nouvelle Visages (NV) cosmetic line.

The forensic team had also gone to a restaurant about four kilometres from the scene as part of the investigations into the case.

Police helicopters were seen hovering over the area.

Incoming Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Ismail Omar told reporters in Kuala Lumpur that police believed they would be able to solve the case swiftly following the arrest of at least four men.

He declined to reveal the identities of suspects although there were speculations that two of them were lawyers.

A relative of Sosilawati when met at the millionaire's home in Gombak said police contacted them this afternoon on the likelihood that the millionaire's remains had been found in Tanjong Sepat.

"But they will have to carry a DNA test to confirm it," he said.

Sosilawati's ex-husband known only as Buhari was seen entering the house at about 12.30pm.

Sosilawati and the three others were reported missing nearly two weeks ago after coming here for a land purchase deal.

A week later, police found Sosilawati's BMW at Angsana Apartment in USJ 1, Subang Jaya and the BMW of Ahmad Kamil at a housing estate in front of a hotel in Subang Jaya. -- Bernama

Veteran Communist Fighter Denied Pension

Veteran communist fighter Captain Mukhtiar Singh regards his years in the police and army with a mixture of pride and indignation — pride because he fought fearlessly, and indignation because, despite the sacrifices, he has been denied his rightful pension.

In 1948, Mukthtiar, 16, was like many teenagers his age. He studied hard at Batu Road School in Kuala Lumpur and helped his grandfather with chores. To earn extra money, he worked part-time as a night watchman.

Mukhtiar’s parents, who were farmers in Punjab, had sent their eldest child at the age of four to Malaya to get an education. The outbreak of the Emergency, however, changed everything as he was drafted into the police force.

“When the Emergency started, the management of the company I was working for took all the watchmen to the Campbell Police Station and gave us a rifle and 100 rounds of ammunition. We were made Special Constables but we did not know how to use the weapons as we had no training,’’ he recalls.

In 1950, Mukthiar received a telegram that his mother was seriously ill. He left for India but she died before he could see her. A heart-broken Mukthiar returned to Malaya hoping to continue his studies. His dreams were dashed, however, when he was forced to take up arms again.

“I was riding my bicycle when my English boss, Mr Swan, at Wilkinson Process Rubber Company in Ipoh Road, stopped me and asked me to rejoin the police. I told him I wanted to study. However, he informed the OCPD of Kepong of my return. I was told to rejoin the police force or be sent for national service in Kulai, Johor,” says Mukthiar, who was soon made a Special Constable again.

Still wanting to leave, he started reporting sick in the hope that he would eventually be discharged. However, he was told that he would end up in the lock-up if he continued to shirk his duties. That proved to be a turning point for Mukthiar because, from then on, he embraced his fate and devoted himself to the police force, quickly rising up the ranks.

Mukhtiar was made temporary inspector in 1954 and led a 36-man platoon, the Police Special Squad Group Number 4, to two Selangor Battle Defensive Shields. To get the shield, platoons were awarded points based on the number of communists killed or captured and weapons seized. A dead communist earned the highest points: 25

Waktu Tak Terasa, Rindu Tak Terkata (Asyik)

Dengan bahasa
kalimah yang sama
Puji dan memuja
Dilindung dan dibuka
Rahsiakan tetap rahsia

Indah bukan rupa
Harum bukan bunga
Manis bukan gula
Panas bukannya bara
Cintakan tetap cinta

Sejak aku kenali
Cintamu yang suci
Aku telah berjanji
Tak berpaling lagi

Akan aku genggam api
Hingga jadi besi
Dan nyata sebati

Gelap bukan malam
Terang bukan siang
Satu tak terbilang
Hanyut tak terenang
Waktu tak terasa
Rindu tak terkata
Asyiknya cinta

Dan hanya kepadamu
Kuserah jiwa ragaku
Walau berjuta seteru
Tak kuragu
