My fight is the fight for human right. BTW, i wont be home on February 1st :( Maybe mid of Feb i will. please send regards to the bloggers (the anti pesta blogger or what?? hehehe). i'd love to come although will be so nervous to meet you gals. Yet unfortunately i must stay in Sabang for my associate is pulang kampung till 2nd of Feb. post the report yeeeee <blockquote>Hi M! I know, I know, I shouldn't have watched that show. But out of all the other programs being offered on the rest of the channels (which consist of sinetrons, mostly) I thought this one would be worth watching. I mean, it was Metro TV, but no, they disappointed me, yet again. So far none of those debate shows actually give any insights for the audience, or clues or even hopes for a smarter, more intelligent leaders for this country. Too bad you can't make it to the Feb 1st! Toni and Elyani actually went to Pesta Blogger but I missed the deadline to sign up and I wasn't feeling like going anyway (seminars etc., I'm too much of a bum to sit through them). Nervous? Come on, what is there to be nervous about? Devi Girsang said the same thing, it's as if we're going to ask you out on a date or something *wink2*</blockquote> Oh My God..how can you spend times watching them? especially because you think they are competing in giving the best bull shit..

Like pjbali said, "charity begins at home". Of course it's good that we care about other people's misery, even those who do not even share the same nationality, but it's strange to care so much about others but seem to not care at all about those who are our own. invisible:

I do not know the motivations behind the protests against the war in Gaza, who is to know what each individual's motivations are? However, I disagree with the bloggers attitude, that since its not our problem, and we have many problems of our own, let them all go to hell. It's every man/woman/child for him/her/themselves in this dog eat dog world. I understand the frustrations you feel, that sometimes kindness is driven by a selfish motivation, that kindness is sometimes hypocritical, but lets face it, in this day and age, where kindness and compassion is such a scarce commodity, whose value is so high, and untouchable by any financial or other crises, we should take what we can get, give what we can give, and try to live in peace, not in pieces. <blockquote>Mr./Ms. Invisible, peace will begin as soon as the people in this country stop throwing demonstrations at any chance they get, as well as stop spreading unnecessary hatreds (ie. throwing shoes at imaginary Obamas, burning flags and used tires, etc.), and start helping each other and rebuilding this country so that in the future we can actually give the help we <em>can</em> afford, without ignoring nor sacrificing other people who are actually in more urgent need. There is nowhere in my post that states "let them (Palestinians? Israelis?) all go to hell", you are exaggerating. My meaning is that Indonesia should not get their priorities mixed up. Don't forget we still owe a massive debt to the US, on top of the problems this country must overcome. As for kindness and compassion - really, have we actually seen the kind of treatment being given to our own people? Have we? There are hundreds, even thousands of people in Indonesia who are also dying slowly from poverty, lack of education, malnutrition and natural disasters, are they no different than those in Gaza? Do they not deserve our attention too?</blockquote> rima and therry:
