THE STORY OF A KEBAB 🍴
A few days back while heading home I saw a new kebab stall opened near my house. Having lived in Cairo & Jeddah previously I'm pretty much a fan of Arab food. Their meals are simple and high in protein (lean meat, chickpeas, etc). Not surprisingly this kebab was the 'pasar malam' type - lotsa sauces (not healthy) but smells really good. So yes u guessed it - I bought them instantly LOL.
While buying I realized an old man was standing close by...looking at the meat being grilled. Dressed shabbily, turned out he was selling some baskets and products made from rattan about 1-2 metres away. He looked like he really wanted the kebab. I don't blame him...the smell was deliciously intoxicating. But he hesitated. Perhaps the RM4 per piece kebab was out of his budget. And no one seemed to be buying his rattan products.
I decided to buy the kebab for him, but I was also rushing to go home to shower since it was one of those super hazy days and I've to work again later that night. So I passed RM8 to the 2 young boys and told them "Bro, nanti tolong pack satu bagi kat pakcik tu ye, kesian dia" (Bro, help me pack one and pass it to the uncle, poor guy). The boy nodded and smiled. I really hoped I made the uncle happy. No one deserves to be hungry
THIS is the actual kebab I was talking about. Turned out it wasn't THAT delicious. But I guess it was worth the price.
And I'm not telling you this story because I wanted to prove to you that I'm good or anything. I'm sharing this with you because I think being charitable is infectious. It's bad enough that our country is in a financial crisis due to the actions of a few irresponsible ones who only do 'charity' amongst themselves . Let it start with US.
Let's help one another even in the smallest possible ways. Let's be the true Malaysians we are supposed to be. It can also start with us living harmoniously together.
SELAMAT HARI MALAYSIA 🇲🇾
