Adakah Label Membawa Perpecahan?

Image
Kita semua ada label yang melekat dalam diri kita. Melayu. Muda. 15 tahun. Cina. Suka pergi karaoke. Pemalas. Pandai study. Tak pandai matematik. Pandai bisnes. Tua. Suka main golf. Suka pergi Wet World. India. Mewah. Pengumpul gadget. Dalam dunia post-modern sekarang ini, isu-isu seksisme, rasisme dan segala 'ism' ini, dikatakan berpunca daripada label-label ini. Dikatakan bahawa kita seharusnya buang segala label-label ini daripada diri kita, dan label-label ini tidak melambangkan diri kita. Aku setuju dengan satu perkara; label-label itu berpotensi untuk membawa kepada perpecahan. Aku juga faham bahawa hal ini diutarakan untuk meningkatkan tahap kesedaran orang awam terhadap isu perpecahan. Namun, secara literalnya, aku tak rasa bahawa label-label ini perlu dibuang. Kerana walaupun label itu boleh membawa perpecahan, label itu sendiri tidak menyebabkan perpecahan. Kita, manusialah, yang menjadikan label itu sebagai satu alat untuk kita berpecah-belah. Cuba kita ...

What I've Learnt From NCT

Image
kprofiles.com NCT is a South Korean boy group formed by SM Entertainment. Their name stands for the Hallyu localization project Neo Culture Technology, a term coined by SM Entertainment to describe the group's concept of having an unlimited number of members divided into multiple sub-units based in various cities worldwide (like AKB48?). There's NCT 127, NCT U, NCT DREAM & there's also a NCT 2018 project for this particular year. Yes, I've copied that from Wikipedia. Because, apart from Wikipedia, who else can describe what NCT is? I mean, it took almost half of a Weekly Idol episode to NCT themselves explain who they are. I'm not wasting your 20 minutes for that. (Plus, you can just watch it here ) Am I stanning? That's not the question for today. From the title, I'm not gonna talk on how great they are and how you should stan them. NCTzens are already doing that. I just want to share what I've learnt from them. Specifically, from how t...

Dosa Awam & Dosa Peribadi?

Image
Baru-baru ini Malaysia heboh dengan isu kerajaan yang tidak akan lagi melakukan serbuan khalwat, atas dasar pendapat bahawa kerajaan tidak perlu fokus pada dosa peribadi, atau dosa yang dilakukan secara bersendiri. Hal ini mendapat tentangan daripada pelbagai pihak. Aku juga, walaupun setuju bahawa dosa peribadi itu tidak seharusnya dirungkaikan, tidak bersetuju bahawa serbuan khalwat perlu dihentikan. Berikut merupakan beberapa sebab mengapa aku tidak bersetuju serbuan khalwat dihentikan. 1. Malaysia tidak percaya kepada pengamalan seks bebas. Agama Islam lebih bersifat spesifik, yakni melarang pengamalan seks di luar hubungan perkahwinan. Agama rasmi Malaysia, dan budaya rakyat Malaysia secara keseluruhannya, memandang hal ini sebagai satu perkara yang salah. Malah, kita juga ada bukti yang kukuh untuk menjustifikasikan ketidakpercayaan kita. Masalah anak luar nikah, masalah keturunan, masalah ketagihan seks, masalah seks bawah umur, masalah kecenderungan kes rogol untu...

Set A Higher Standard for Yourselves

Image
How old are you now? 15? 18? 20? 25? May I ask you; what are your parents doing when they were your age? I can hear a few responses. But despite me not knowing you, I can still tell what your parents were not doing at that age. They didn't start their day checking social medias. They didn't spend their free time browsing memes. They didn't try to download as much movies as they can. They didn't have a favourite YouTube channel. They didn't get any Snaps. They didn't go through the time where a simple hi can go into someone's phone in just seconds. Instead, they either call or send letters. In a sense, despite the various conditions around the globe, I can say that youths in this time generally have a better life condition then their parents, and generally their ancestors. Do you agree with me? I mean, with the advancements of technology in communication & transportation, with both parents working to support us financially, with higher e...

Yang Memberi Akan Lebih Terkesan

"Seorang ibu boleh menjaga sepuluh orang anak, tetapi sepuluh orang anak belum tentu boleh menjaga seorang ibu."  Kita selalu dengar perkara ini dalam menyentuh isu tentang anak-anak yang derhaka atau tidak mengenang budi. Pernah tak kita terfikir, apakah sebenarnya sebab kenapa seorang ibu hampir sepanjang masa boleh menjaga ramai anak, namun amat sukar untuk situasi yang bertentangan berlaku? Barangkali kerana kasihnya ibu itu tidak bertepi? Barangkali kerana sayangnya ibu itu menerima anaknya tanpa sebarang syarat? Aku setuju. Tapi, aku nampak corak kelakuan ini, bukan dalam hubungan sesama ibu & anak sahaja. Seorang pelajar yang dididik secara bersusah payah oleh seorang guru, boleh sombong dengan gurunya apabila dia telah berjaya. Seseorang yang ikhlas membantu rakannya yang dilanda kesusahan, boleh dilupakan oleh kawannya itu sendiri setelah menjadi senang. Biar aku oleh semula soalan aku; daripada manakah datangnya corak kelakuan yang sebegini? J...
