我们也去看已经被发展商拆除了部分房院的东院一带,这才发现用来建供病人修养的房子和病院的瓦片竟然都是法国进口的,用了超过70年里面竟然还和新的差不多,怪不得发展商都把这些瓦砖留起来,看来他们是捡了便宜货,即使再用来盖新楼,应该也不会像新法院那样漏水吧。可见我们的英殖民政府可是一点也不吝啬,一瓦一砖都是真材实料,即使是用来建给被世人嫌弃的麻疯病人。

怀念英政府
双溪毛儒麻疯病院还没有被列入国家文物遗产,卫生部要发展部分地段,发展商强拆房屋,谁是谁非,这绝对可以成为家长为孩子小学毕业前吉隆坡一日游的一次游学项目,也可以作为中学生的辩论比赛的辩题,更可以成为大学生对文史研究及其省思的相关论文题目。

The Haunts of Valley of Hope
Last weekend, Me, Josh Hong, Josh Pang and Shue Fei went to Sungai Buloh Leprosarium, Valley of hope, where another place of heritage value will soon give way to development. Before that, we were told earlier that May 13 victims were “secretly” buried in a cemetery nearby where outside world would hardly know where is it…so, we went there, and Shue Fei, who is a responsible and hard working reporter, brought everything a reporter needed for a field study, she wrote down all the victims name, including all plot she could find on the grave, family members of the victims, place of birth, date of death…
I couldn’t remember what is the official number reported death by the government, 200+ or 300? but the small piece of land laid 102 gravestones, some without name, some were rebuilt by their families years later. We were told later by a villager who stay there for more than 40 years, there were ‘many” bodies carried by few lorries from KL, they dump the bodies into a “pool” dig earlier, and of course, no villager were allowed to get close to that place….when we asked how many bodies exactly? He said “many….many… more than thousand…” could it be a real figure? I really have no idea. But I know there are many “secrets” yet to be exposed, and the gap of the history is yet to be told with true evident. The most important is, what we can actually learn from here?
By the courtesy of the Malaysian Government...few words, many debts...
We're not only found Chinese gravestones but also Malays and Indians..
There are many unidentified victims...forgotten by the world.From the date stated, we suppose the May 13 tragedy at least last till 20th of May.
May they all rest in peace.

诸葛亮还是猪哥靓?!
拜读马华领袖黄家定马华公会总会长黄家定日前在中国北京会见我国留学生时,批评在野党有勇无谋,并说要争取政府承认中国大学的文凭必须要有诸葛亮的计谋,因为“有些人吃软不吃硬,低声下气是和他们协商的唯一办法”之新闻。(见独立新闻在线)。不知道留学在我大中华这块孕育了诸葛亮这类人物的土地的我国学生,是否在大学这几年的黄金岁月里读过了这本中国四大古典文学名著之一的《三国演义》?本人才疏学浅,只看过一遍,对诸葛亮的认识,几乎只限他是位足智多谋, 有着政治、军事、外交方面超人的智慧的人物等深入民间所共同认知的形象,今天听我马华人的口里说的诸葛亮, 实实地让我心里吃慌,我竟不知道原来诸葛亮有那么一招,而且看似唯一的绝招,是那么地让我们马华领袖钦佩,而且屡试不爽!赶紧回家找出我那本厚厚的《三国演义》,但实在没办法一口气看完它,于是上网google search 一下,求救于三国的网迷(现代懒人的方法),为了即准确又快速地找出我要的答案,我打了“诸葛亮的计谋,低声下气“,可惜出来的result除了带我回到独立新闻在线的以上报道外,别无他迹可循,看来随队前往北京的马大中国研究所所长何国忠应该写一篇相关的文章post 上网,拓广大家的视野和思维。
不过,在我看来这位遇上了一位明主来三顾茅庐(其明主看来有点低声下气),并让他施展他的才华的诸葛亮,连曹操也畏他三分的谋略家,如此完美(人都爱神化自己所敬仰的人物),若要低声下气地求人承认他,我想英明的君主应该早早把他一脚“样“开,因为此人非真卧龙,乃猪哥一名也!
