Another Central Banker which I can clearly recall the first time I met this smiley talkative gentleman, looking so good in his grey or light brown or kelabu tahi kucing (oh my God, I forget the colour) blazer. Sorry ladies, he's taken! Just recently tied the knot (last month on the Election Day) with a nice and sweet-talking doctor. A fun and funny person to be around with.What is it like to be a Malaysian?
Can this question become question No.6?
What would be your perfect meal?
Ikan ‘Jacket’, Pisang ‘Lebam’, Karipap 'Berlubang’, Biskut ‘Mary’ cicah Milo and of course, Daging ‘Plastic’.
What do you love most?
My Maybankard and BSN Matrix card (DFI!!)
What is your greatest disappointment?
Would Love to do many things in my life, want to become like so many people outside there…but end up doing only one thing at a time, well, that is what we call ‘human after all’...
How do you define gender equality?
In this age, can you really define ‘gender’? Let alone 'equality'. So what do you call that guy standing by the roadside wearing mini skirt with ‘Adam’s apple’ bigger than the actual apple imported from Washington?
Or
That gal who is riding on a scooter with her ‘Pengkit’ shouting at people looking at her ‘girlfriend’ - "Woi! Jangan ushar AWEK aku!"
Will gender be define by ‘what is beneath the skirt / pant or your inner feeling? Equality – how to compare it? Apple to APPLE? Which apple?
What is it like to be a Malaysian?
Alamak, still could not answer this question! I thought by changing it to no. 6, I’ll will have ample time to think about it! Just joking! Of course the least possible feeling a Malaysian should felt is to be proud of what we have achieved.
Which is more tiring, singing in the kitchen or the bathroom? Why?
Kitchen – if you are so into singing and forgotten about your cooking and end up burning the food and 500 calories / 2100 joules, having to cook again and cleaning up all the mess you’ve caused.
Or
Bathroom - if you burnt about the same amount of calories singing out loud just to make your voice louder than the sound of pouring water from the shower or louder than the ‘pleasant’ sound coming from your housemates screaming at you for using the bathroom more than ONE hour.
What is the most embarrassing thing you did in the past?
Speak ‘Spanish’ to a group of Malaysian tourists at the Old Trafford Football Ground! Understand? No?
Well, in one fine morning, a group of Malaysian tourists (mostly Malays) stepped into Man Utd Merchandise Shop, Old Trafford only to notice two Malay-like faces mopping the floor.
Their immediate reaction: "Woi! Cleaner ni muka cam melayu siott! Hangpa Melayu ka?"
My immediate reaction: hola Buenos dias! (The ONLY Spanish word that I know until now!)
Their reaction: "Oih! Bukan Melayu, depa org Mexico kot?"
Dalam hati – (Selamattttt…)
If you could meet some from the past, who'll it be?
Hang Tuah. Why? Because I really want to ask him this question - "Are you really from Melaka, Hang bukan org Aloq Setaq ka?"
Do you have any irrational fear?
Nomuniaartallophobia – fear of having no money at all, esp. 3 days after payday.
Which song you think shouldn't be composed?
Tipah tertipu tipu tertipah, why? Why not!!!!
What is your most annoying habit?
None, because no such thing as annoying habit. If you like to do it so much until it becomes a ‘habit’, it must not be annoying for you – even ‘nose-digging’ while trapped in a traffic jam has becoming a revolution if not culture here.
You are more akin to Tom Cruise or Madonna?
None, I am not akin or next of kin to any of them, tom kurus or Madonnald.
How are you going to live with RM1 for all year long?
I don’t mind having even only 1 cent in my pocket, as long as my Meps Cash, Maybankard, Debit Card or (most people Credit Card), EPF, Insurance and Duit Kutu are all still intact.
What will you look like at the age of 100?
The same – if the cost for plastic surgery in 2076 waived for Government servant.
Do you believe in love at the first sight?
No, that could be ‘I like u’ or, I have a ‘crush’ on u or a pure lust. U definitely needs many2 many2 sight to ‘love’ somebody… not ONCE.
What is your best achievement?
To be able to survive everyday without having to apply for the micro credit loan from BSN or credit card from the Citibank – (So far…)
Which person has most influenced you?
Nobody specific – I observed and learned from everybody I encounter in life. Look at people from many angles not only one. Half full or half empty – it’s your call!
What is the best part of Malaysia that you liked most?
Any part, as long as it is Sunday, 8.00a.m. But NONE if it is exactly the same time, the next day!!
Any comment on abortion?
Abortion could be the result of a car accident! It is different from a normal car accident as it is not covered by Insurance Company (Comprehensive or third party), the car ‘might’ not had any scratch on the body; instead the ‘driver’ might suffer nasty scratches. And lastly, the patient will not be treated at the ‘A&E (Accident and Emergency) instead, by O&G (Obstetrician & Gynaecologist).
What will be your epitaph?
In Islam, one of the reasons of having Talqin recited is to remind everybody who is still alive and kicking, on the fact that ‘Setiap yang hidup pasti akan mati’ thus, if it is not too long, I would love to have that recitation to be my epitaph.
