"You should join NUT," said Andrew's mother.
"Huh, whassat?"
"NUT. The other day, the NUT man came to our school to hand out their newsletter."
Oooh... She must've met this guy...
At RM5/month, you can be a member of NUT. National Union of Teachers. They will deduct RM5 from your gaji every month.
Interesting...
Many people have responded differently to what I purposed to do. Some say it's not wise to antagonize the hand that feeds you. Some say wait until the interview results are out before taking action. Some say, that's the way to go! Some say it's crazy.
I say... When 12 people went to spy the Promised Land, 10 people came back and said it was crazy. Only 2 people said it was possible for the taking. One was Caleb. The other was Joshua son of Nut... I mean, Nun.
I'm of the opinion that social justice and righteousness is more important than merely having a paycheck under your name every month. If we, being in the government service, the ones who witness such things first hand, choose to remain silent and do nothing... Who will?
We are not responsible Malaysians if we choose to bend, just to protect our self interests. The call for government servants is to be a servant of the people. Not a servant, period. There is a big difference.
A servant of the people does what is best for the people and its government. A servant licks its master's shoes for breadcrumbs.
How much more we, who are servants of God.

KC: I've attended a few TCF meetings before in Penang. It's more like a support group thingy. To encourage teachers who are depressed, disillusioned or weary.
It's good... But not my cup of tea.
