The cruelty of Life

These recent months have been months of mourning for a number of people i know.. It is sad when a loved one leaves us so unexpectedly.. if the demised has been suffering from an illness of some sort, then yes.. maybe death would be the best way to end things.. but yet again this is completely different when the demise is young, intelligent and with a bright future ahead.. this thus leads me to my dear fren, chung lern's recent loss.. His young, beautiful and extremely intelligent girlfriend recently passed away because of a bus accident that I am very sure most of us must have heard of.. Nian Ning, beautiful young girl who had everything in her hands passed away on the 28th of January 2008. How did this happen? Because one reckless bus driver who has 13 summons against him was still allowed on the road.. He caused not only Nian Ning's life.. but also the lives of two other young passengers.. More information can be read here.

How cruel can life get? because of one person's recklessness.. one company's stupid decision to not do anything about such a reckless employee.. THREE young lives have been sacrificed.. God knows how many more will be sacrificed if this action does not stop now! I urge all of you who read this.. please.. please sign the PETITION . This petition will be sent to the Minister of Transportation Malaysia after the Chinese New Year.. Please do sign it.. your signature will make a world of difference.. I urge you here not as a friend to the demise's loved one.. but I urge you here.. as a student, as a Malaysian and most importantly as a human being.. all lives are very valuable.. they are priceless.. and such recklessness in Malaysia must STOP! If you value your life, and of those that you love.. please.. spend a minute, sign this petition.. it would make a world of difference in the transportation services in Malaysia.. For your own good.. and for everyone else's as well..

God Bless,
Ying.
