THE RISK YOU MAY HAVE TO TAKE IF YOU'RE SINGLE WITHOUT KIDS AND FAMILY  An elderly lady arrived at our house to spend her final days here. More precisely, she was brought by her nephew—a large, self-important man in the prime of life—who declared in his interview: “Let her die here—it’s what you’re used to. And by the way, she’s inadequate.” The so-called “inadequate” lady sat quietly on a chair, swinging her legs, smiling as she gazed out the window. His wife—a heavyset woman long embarrassed by life—carried the woman’s suitcases and hovered respectfully at the edge of the room.

THE PUBLIC NEEDS EXPLANATION It's not Madani alone to be blamed. Both cases happened during Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak was the prime minister of the country.
