Teaching our Children
“Therefore you shall lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul. You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes. You shall teach them your children, talking of them, when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up. You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates; that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.” (Deuteronomy 11:18-21 WEB)
God wants us (parents) to teach our children. Nowadays there are many ways to outsource education, but we cannot leave our children completely in the hands of the secular education system.
The most important thing to teach our children from infancy is : God’s word. Teaching is not about seating them in front of a desk with a thick Bible and going through chapter by chapter.
Be led by the Holy Spirit, and whenever an appropriate teaching moment arises, use the chance to talk about Jesus and make the faith real and practical in your children’s lives.
For example, if your child fell down and scraped his knee, just comfort him and pray together, declaring that Jesus’ healing power is entering the wound to fix it.
Before each meal, thank Jesus for the food and declare it sanctified in Jesus’ name. Tell your children that the Lord is specially preparing the food to be clean, good, and healthy for them.
Whenever possible, quote portions of Scripture to etch it in your children’s hearts. “Wow look at all these gifts that we received! Praise Jesus—the Lord is truly our Shepherd, and we shall not lack!”
Teach them Gospel truths—what is applicable under the New Covenant of Grace. Definitely don’t make them recite or memorize the Ten Commandments of the Law.
The Gospel has a prospering effect. It has the power to save from every trouble. As a parent, and especially if you are a father, you are also entrusted with the role of leading your children in their spiritual growth.
“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” (Proverbs 22:6 WEB)
By the leading of the Holy Spirit, build a strong foundation of faith for your children, and they will greatly benefit from it throughout their lives!
When I wrote the book “Sandcastles Don’t Last Forever” the compiled truths within were designed for the whole family. It is so important that our children know from young that we do our best in life for the Lord’s sake, to worship Him, and that He is the one who will reward us. There is no need to live for the praise of men. This belief alone will save them from many disappointments and heartaches.
There are so many great lessons about eternal rewards in the book. I hope you can get it (either the eBook or a paperback copy) and share the truths with your children in a relatable way, after digesting the revelations yourself: http://bit.ly/sandcastlesdontlastforever

APAKAH MASIH ADA MASA HADAPAN BUAT PARTI KERAMAT INI?
Sedikit catatan perkongsian.
Saya masih ingat lagi bagaimana saya bergelut dengan diri sendiri ketika mahu membuat keputusan yang besar dalam hidup saya, iaitu menyertai politik dan menyertai parti Bersatu.
Saya menyoal banyak perkara. Adakah saya sesuai menjadi seorang ahli politik? Adakah saya sanggup melondehkan jubah akademia saya dan turun bergulat di bawah menghadapi pelbagai tikam belakang, tawar-menawar, caci-maki dalam kerancuan dunia politik yang lebih menjanjikan kekhilafan berbanding kebenaran?
Apa yang menyebabkan saya didorong untuk menyertai politik dan Bersatu adalah suasana politik tanah air yang dilanda kemelut yang kronik waktu itu.
Tatkala dunia mengenali Malaysia kerana salah guna kuasa dan penyelewengan perbendaharaan negara oleh sesetengah individu, negara bagaikan memanggil-manggil warganya yang sedar untuk bersama merubah keadaan tersebut.
Sebagai warga akademia yang dididik untuk berdiri di atas fakta, idealisme dan kejituan moral, saya merasakan telah sampai waktunya untuk saya mula menterjemahkan segala teori dan idealisme yang sering dimuntahkan ke minda para penuntut lewat kuliah-kuliah ke dalam realiti.
Dilema yang menguliti jiwa menemui penawarnya apabila saya bertemu dengan Tun Dr Mahathir, dan seterusnya saya bertemu pula dengan Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin. Kedua-dua tokoh ini mempunyai tempat yang istimewa di dalam hati saya sehingga kini.
Saya merupakan moderator pertama forum Tun (yang bukan sebagai ahli UMNO lagi) di depan khalayak awam di Pasir Gudang Johor.
Setelah itu, saya sering diundang untuk menjadi moderator forum-forum Tun yang dianjurkan oleh pelbagai pihak sekitar 2016-2017. Bercakap depan-depan dengan Tun adalah momen yang paling saya tak boleh lupa. Saya masih ingat pesan Tun waktu itu,
“Kita kena selamatkan negara Malaysia dari kleptokrat. Dulu Malaysia dikenali dunia kerana kemajuannya dan kehebatannya, kini dikenali kerana rasuah.
Di samping itu kita sebagai orang Melayu wajib menyelamatkan survival orang Melayu. Apa akan jadi dengan masa depan orang Melayu jika budaya rasuah, salah guna kuasa dan politik wang ini menjadi normal tanpa ada langsung orang yang bersuara menentangnya?”
Jelas di wajah Tun yang di senja usia itu keresahan dan kegelisahan memikirkan nasib politik orang Melayu.
Selain itu, saya tak boleh lupa pesan Tan Sri ketika saya bertemu dengan beliau (lama dulu, sebelum PRU14). Saya juga merasa bersyukur kerana menjadi moderator pertama forum awam beliau di Johor Bahru sejurus beliau dibuang dari UMNO.
Setahun selepas peristiwa tersebut, saya telah mengambil keputusan untuk menyertai Bersatu, dan telah diberikan peluang untuk bertemu dengan Tan Sri. Antara kata-kata Tan Sri yang begitu terkesan di dalam jiwa saya;
“Kita perlukan wajah ahli politik baru untuk membentuk budaya politik yang baharu. Kita perlu wujudkan budaya baharu politik Bersatu.”
Kemudian saya cermati satu persatu tentang penubuhan Bersatu. Bersatu meletakkan batu asas yang sangat kukuh semasa ditubuhkan.
Selain menegakkan Islam, mempertahan kedudukan bumiputera dan bahasa, menjunjung demokrasi, Bersatu berikrar mahu ‘memerangi rasuah dan salah guna kuasa untuk mewujudkan amalan tadbir urus yang baik dan pemerintahan yang bersih, beramanah dan berintegriti.’
Rujuk di laman web Bersatu, Prinsip-prinsip Perjuangan Bersatu: https://www.pribumibersatu.org.my/prinsip.php
Maka berbondong-bondonglah orang menyertai Bersatu. Dari hujung Wang Kelian sampailah luar negara, orang meletakkan harapan yang tinggi kepada Bersatu sebagai ‘fresh start’ budaya politik yang baru.
Semua orang tahu dan sedar bagaimana kerosakan sistem yang telah berlaku sekian lama, skandal-skandal besar dan kes-kes pecah amanah yang luar biasa, segalanya perlahan-lahan terdedah.
Tidak usah pergi jauh, di dalam pendidikan sendiri lihatlah kes projek solar sekolah luar bandar Sarawak yang sudah mula dibicarakan. Perhatikanlah bagaimana pertelingkahan sesama sendiri berlaku oleh watak-watak yang mahu menyelamatkan diri dari didakwa.
Sayang sekali perbicaraan kes itu tidak dapat diselesaikan sebelum PH jatuh. Hari ini, watak yang terlibat secara langsung dengan projek tenaga solar tersebut mendapat jawatan sebagai pengerusi GLC (yang juga berkaitan dengan ‘tenaga’).
Sekiranya ada agamawan pernah berkata, lantiklah menteri-menteri kabinet yang bersih agar menjadi hujah yang kuat kepada kerajaan yang tertubuh,
sekarang bagaimana pula dengan perlantikan watak-watak begini dalam GLC-GLC? Adakah ada hujah agama lain yang perlu disandang pula untuk menjustifikasikan tindakan ini? Jika ada, saya teringin membacanya.
Benar. Bersatu adalah parti yang sangat muda. Tetapi penubuhan Bersatu sangat jelas tujuan dan asasnya. Tentu kita bukanlah parti yang sempurna, parti yang juga punyai kelemahan, tetapi sedikitpun kita tidak pernah tergelincir dari tujuan asal penubuhan parti keramat ini.
Dukung demokrasi, pertahan agama, perkukuh bangsa, dan yang paling penting, ikrar kita untuk terus lawan rasuah, lawan salah guna kuasa dan bina budaya tadbir urus yang baharu, yang berintegriti.
Sekarang, apa yang perlu kita jawab kepada diri kita sendiri apabila budaya ini kembali bermaharajalela di dalam negara kita, di depan mata kita?
Tidakkah terdetik rasa gelisah melihat watak-watak yang kita perangi tindakan mereka dahulu kini kembali mendominasi tanpa sedikitpun rasa malu dan bersalah?
Mereka inilah yang merupakan Raison d'etre (sebab kewujudan) Bersatu. Bersatu diwujudkan untuk menggantikan mereka, untuk memberikan alternatif kepada politik lama, politik korupsi kepada politik baru yang pernah diilhamkan nama sebagai budaya Bersatu.
Di atas niat murni ini jugalah saya menyertai Bersatu dan menceburkan diri ke dalam politik.
Saya perlu ucapkan terima kasih kepada ahli MPT Bersatu, Dato Dr Rais Husin yang telah Berjaya menyempurnakan penyertaan saya ke dalam parti yang saya cintai ini. Mac 2018 merupakan tarikh keramat dalam hidup saya apabila saya menyertai Bersatu secara rasmi.
Sejujurnya, saya masih kabur melihat arah tuju perjalanan parti ini dikala ini. Ketika kita (Bersatu) menjadi komponen penting dalam PH dahulu. Identiti kita jelas, orang Melayu berlindung di rumah Bersatu dalam PH sementara kaum lain boleh berlindung di rumah lain dan kita cuba hidup seadil yang mungkin (walaupun kadangkala kita tergigit lidah).
Pergeseran dalaman adalah lumrah politik, persoalannya ialah bagaimanakah kita menguruskan konflik dan perbezaan.
Apabila Bersatu dibawa keluar dan menyertai PN lewat hujung Februari yang lalu, saya mula bertanya, masih relevan lagikah identiti yang Bersatu bawa, iaitu untuk menjadi parti alternatif orang Melayu dan menggantikan UMNO? Masih terpakaikah lagi idealisme yang diperjuangkan selama ini?
Jika Bersatu akhirnya hanya mengikut arus yang sama, mula bercampur dengan mereka yang membawa budaya politik yang dulu kita berikrar untuk perangi, apologetik dan merasa tak bersalah pula bersama dengan mereka yang pernah kita kalahkan kerana kerakusan wang dan kuasa yang jelas berlaku di depan mata, di manakah lagi rasionalnya keperluan parti kita untuk orang Melayu?
Akhirnya, orang Melayu, anak muda, generasi masa depan yang mempunyai harapan untuk melihat budaya politik baharu, seakan kelam dan hilang.
Impian pengundi-pengundi yang pulang mengundi 9 Mei 2018 dengan tekad untuk membentuk Malaysia Baharu, gugur dan retak.
Apakah masih masa hadapan untuk parti keramat kita ini?
Hal ini semakin merunsingkan saya terutamanya apabila UMNO dan BN hanya menerima kerajaan PN sehingga menjelang PRU15 sahaja.
Majlis Tertinggi UMNO telah memutuskan bahawa mereka melalui Muafakat Nasional akan menggempur semua kerusi-kerusi yang dipertandingkan oleh Bersatu dan sekutu Bersatu di dalam PRU 15 nanti. Perikatan Nasional hanyalah hubungan sementara bagi UMNO.
UMNO yang sepatutnya digantikan kewujudan mereka dengan Bersatu di dalam hati orang-orang Melayu tanah air ini.
Di kala itu, sekiranya kita tidak melakukan apa-apa, soalan saya, di manakah kedudukan Bersatu?
Ke PH tidak, ke Muafakat Nasional pun tidak. Kita menjadi pihak ketiga yang paling marginal berhadapan dengan dua blok PH dan Muafakat Nasional pada PRU15 nanti.
Apakah nasib Bersatu pada waktu itu nanti?
Apakah masih ada masa hadapan buat parti keramat ini?

IS THERE STILL A FUTURE FOR THIS PARTY?
Just something to share.
I can still remember how I had struggled with myself when I made the major life decision of joining politics and joining the party Bersatu.
I questioned many things at that time. Was I fit to be a politician? Would I be able to take off my academic robe and instead roll around with backstabbing, bargaining, and insults in the political world which promises more deceit than truth?
What drove me to be involved in politics and Bersatu was the political atmosphere of the country that was plagued by the chronic turmoil of the time.
As the world knew Malaysia for the misuse of power and financial mismanagement by certain individuals, the nation seemed to be calling on its citizens to wake up and change the situation.
As an academic trained to stand on facts, idealism and moral fastidiousness, I felt that it was time for me to begin actualising all the theories and idealisms that were frequently conveyed to the minds of students through lectures.
My soul-searching dilemma found its antidote when I met Tun Dr Mahathir, and then I met Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin next. Both figures continue to hold a special place in my heart to this day.
I happened to be the first moderator of Tun’s forum (who was no longer a UMNO member then) attended by the people in Pasir Gudang Johor.
After that, I was often invited to be the moderator of Tun’s forums organised by various parties circa 2016-2017. Holding a face-to-face conversation with Tun was truly a moment that I will never forget. I still remember Tun's sage words at that time,
“We have to save Malaysia from the kleptocrats. Malaysia used to be known for its progress and its glory, now only known for its corruption.
Besides, as Malays we must ensure the survival of the Malays. What will be the future of the Malays if the culture of corruption, abuse of power and money politics becomes the norm without anyone speaking out against it?"
It was clear that Tun, in the twilight of age, was fraught with worry and anxiety thinking about the political fate of the Malays.
Also, I could not forget Tan Sri's words when I met him (long ago, even before the 14th General Election). I was also the first moderator of his public forum in Johor Bahru immediately after his removal from UMNO.
A year after the event, I decided to join Bersatu, and was given the opportunity to meet Tan Sri. Among Tan Sri’s remarks that left a deep impact on me;
“We need new faces to shape a new political culture. We need to create a new culture of Bersatu politics.”
I scrutinised the establishment of Bersatu, bit by bit. Bersatu had a very solid foundation when it was set up.
In addition to upholding Islam, upholding the position of bumiputera and language, upholding democracy, Bersatu pledges to 'fight corruption and abuse of power to create good governance and a clean, trustworthy and integrity-based government.'
You may refer to Bersatu website for the party’s principles: https://www.pribumibersatu.org.my/prinsip.php
From then on, a substantial number of people had joined Bersatu. From Wang Kelian to abroad, the people placed their high hopes on Bersatu as the 'fresh start' to a new political culture.
Everyone was aware how damaging the system had been for so long, the major scandals and the outrageous cases of breach of trust, all slowly unfolding.
No need to go too far for examples. Within education itself, you can see the case of the Sarawak rural school solar energy project that is already on trial. Just observe how the persons in question are quarrelling with one another simply to save themselves from prosecution.
It is truly unfortunate that the trial could not be completed before PH fell. Today, the person who was directly involved in the solar energy project is getting the chairmanship of a GLC (which is also related to 'energy').
If a religious figure had once said, appoint clean cabinet ministers to be the strength of the established government,
now what about the appointment of these characters in GLCs? Is there another religious argument that will be brought forth to justify this action? If indeed there is, I'd love to read about it.
True. Bersatu is a very young party. But the establishment of Bersatu was very clear in its purpose and basis. Of course we are not a perfect party, we are a party that has weaknesses, but at least we have never slipped from the original purpose of this party’s establishment.
To uphold democracy, to defend religion, to strengthen the nation, and most importantly, our commitment to continue our fight against corruption, abuse of power, and the building of a new culture of governance, with integrity.
Now, how do we answer ourselves when the same culture is back in our country, before our very eyes?
Do we not feel anxious seeing the persons whose actions we had fought against in the past are now dominating the scene once again without any shame and guilt?
They are the raison d’etre Bersatu was formed. Bersatu was established to replace them, to provide an alternative to the old, corrupt politics, bringing about the new politics that was once envisaged as the Bersatu culture.
It was for this higher purpose that I had joined Bersatu and entered politics.
I would like to thank the Bersatu MPT, Dato Dr Rais Husin who had successfully finalised my registration as a member in this beloved party. March 2018 was the blessed day of my life when I officially joined Bersatu.
To be honest, at this juncture the direction of the party is still a blur to me. When we (Bersatu) were an important component of PH previously, our identity was clear, the Malays could take refuge in the home of Bersatu within PH while other ethnicities could take refuge in other homes and we tried to live together as fairly as possible (although sometimes we did bite our tongues).
Internal disputes are a norm in politics, the question is how do we handle conflicts and differences.
When Bersatu was taken out and had joined PN at the end of February, I started asking, is the identity that Bersatu carries still relevant, that is to become an alternative party for the Malays to replace UMNO? Is the idealism that we fought for still applicable?
If Bersatu eventually follows the same trend, begins to mix with those who bear the political culture we had once vowed to fight, becomes apologetic and guiltless to be with those we had defeated in the past simply because of greed for money and power clearly happening before our own eyes, then where is the rationale of the need for our party for the Malays?
In the end, the Malays, the youth, the future generation who had hopes to see a new political culture, seem to be in the dark and lost.
The dream of the voters who returned to vote on May 9, 2018 with the determination to build Malaysia Baharu, collapses and crashes.
Is there still a future for our beloved party?
I find it especially disturbing to know that UMNO and the BN have accepted the PN government only until the GE15.
The UMNO Supreme Council has decided that they, through Muafakat Nasional, will assail all the seats contested by Bersatu and allies of Bersatu in the coming GE15. Perikatan Nasional is only a temporary relationship for UMNO.
This is the same Umno whose existence in the hearts of Malays in this country should have been replaced by Bersatu.
So, if we do nothing, then my question is, where will Bersatu stand?
With PH we are not, with Muafakat Nasional we are not either. We will be the third most marginalised party to face the two blocks of PH and Muafakat Nasional in the GE15.
When that time comes, what would the fate of Bersatu be?
Is there any future for this party?

I am a legislator from Taiwan. Let me share a story about the friendship between Ethiopian and Taiwanese people for you.
—————————————————————————
While Tedros, the director-general of WHO, has been criticizing Taiwan wrongly, Taiwan has been helping Tedros’ Ethiopian fellows for decades.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus was born in Asmara ( Ethiopia) in 1965. He served as Minister of Health and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ethiopia successively. His professional field is microbiology.
Despite being criticized wrongly by Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus for racial discrimination, in fact, Taiwan has assisted his hometown of Ethiopia through various semi-official and unofficial channels for many years. Taiwan has been helping Ethiopia in many fields such as health care, nutrition and food assistance, education, children and women ’s rights , Psychological and social support, water resources, improving livelihood capacity and income, emergency relief supplies, etc..
According to the “International Cooperation and Development Foundation(ICDF)” totally supported by the Taiwan government budget, there were several Ethiopian students who participated in the “Program of the International Cooperation and Human Resources Training Workshop” held by ICDF in 2012. Some other students participated in the “Clean Energy Development Strategy program” in 2017.
The ICDF said that applications for training must be recommended by the Taiwan Embassy or an international organization. The ICDF will provide financial aid completely for the two-week workshop including the round-trip flight tickets, meals, accommodation and transportation while in Taiwan. The rough estimate of cost was about USD 5,000 for one student.
In addition, there were 5 Ethiopian personnels participated in the "Medical Staff Training Program for Friendly Nations Program" held by ICDF in 2018. The trainees were trained in the Pediatrics Department of Mackay Memorial Hospital and the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of the Tri-Service General Hospital in Taiwan. The ICDF and the Taiwan Ministry of Foreign Affairs are responsible for the expenses.
The 5 trainees were trained in Taiwan for 1 to 3 months. Besides the hospitals’ funding, Taiwan still needed to cover the expense including flight tickets, allowances, insurance, etc.. It cost at least USD 3000 for each one.
Another story was happened in March of 2020. There was a short-term exchange student named Mary from Ethiopia. She needed an emergency operation for venous thrombosis abruptly. Because she was not eligible for Taiwan health insurance, the medical cost was up to USD 50,000. She expressed that she couldn’t afford the surgery. Later, Mary got donation from the hospital healing her, several Taiwanese cherish organizations, and individuals. All the expenses got zeroed by these Taiwanese beneficence.
Yes, Taiwan Government has criticized the director-general of WHO severely. The first reason is his failing to fulfill duties(e.g., he ignored the crucial information provided by Taiwan at Dec 31st in 2019 and the information was about there were 27 cases similar with SARS and highly human-to-human transmission possibilities). This is not about the COLOR. This is about thousands of departed human lives for his failure against Covid-19. Secondly Taiwan is the only one left behind by WHO. This is DISCRIMINATION made by WHO for decades.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the director-general of WHO, should apologize to Taiwan and stop being manipulated by China. And Tedros is welcome to visit Taiwan. He may get the briefing of epidemics prevention by Taiwan and see the beauty of Taiwan.
