honor killing
Our manager was in islamabad for a while, he said to us how happy he is to be here..
he said they treat their women bad there..
ada kasus dimana seorang perempuan melapor ke polisi karena menjadi korban sexual abuse, n her family -literally- barged in to the room and burn her to death...
itu menurut mereka is an honor killing daripada nama keluarga hancur akibat laporan si korban..
at this moment, I feel very grateful, karena apa yg gw rasakan disini is equal to luxury for them.. although we still have lots of obstacles..
Tuesdays with Morrie
The story is about a little wave, bobbing along in the ocean, having a grand old time. He's enjoying the wind and the fresh air-until he notices the other waves in front of him, crushing against the shore. "'My God, this is terrible, ' the wave says. 'Look what 's going to happen to me!' "Then along comes another wave. It sees the first wave looking grim, and it says to him, 'Why do you look so sad?' "The first wave says, 'You don't understand! We're all going to crash! All of us waves are going to be nothing! Isn't it terrible?' "The second wave says, 'No, you don't understand. You're not a wave, you're part of the ocean.'"

Mitch Albom
Just read Tuesdays with Morrie, almost cry myself (if I was not in the morning train full of people)
lesson learned: terkadang kita lupa menghargai hal-hal kecil, terkadang kita lupa that we're part of a bigger system.. :)
(OMG, gw lagi filosofis sekali!!!)

This Odd World
This is what I read this morning:
Prajurit Sabrina Harman, prajurit Amerika yang melakukan penganiayaan di penjara Abu Ghuraib, kemarin dinyatakan tidak bersalah oleh pengadilan militer. Sabrina mengaku berfoto di depan tawanan yang ditelanjangi teman-temannya. Menurut pembela Sabrina, berpose di depan tawanan yang tersiksa bukan suatu kesalahan sebagaimana diatur dalam Undang-Undang.(Tempo Newspaper, Friday, May 13, 2005)
What an Irony... sebuah tindakan pelecehan, tindakan yang jelas-jelas undermining humanity of the prisoners dianggap bukanlah suatu kesalahan...
What a news...
:(
