I am pissed about it but I didn’t want to blog about it because I have nothing good to say about the mother of the boy, his relatives and even his neighbours.
When I read the news earlier, I wondered where the lengjai cyclist DAP ADun Sdr Tee is. So, I waited and waited. Normally, Michael Chong-twin would be shown on the paper helping out. Initially, the news did not mention anything. Today, there was one tiny mention of DAP politicians helping but the news is all about the ugly side of it.
For sure, the boy’s mother has some mental disorder. Mental illness is very much misunderstood in our country. People kill themselves and we do not know why. People kill themselves and hurt their wives, and we do not know why. People beat their kids and wives to pulp and still we do not know why. These are usually mental disorders which our Malaysian society are not very aware of.
Ok, what I hope is they charged the mom for child neglect but at the same time, find out of she is sane or otherwise. Next, find a nice home for the boy. Sometimes, kids are better off in shelter homes which provides proper care than their own families. I am sure the shelter homes will welcome the boy.
Foong blogged about the story behind it and I must agree with Foong that our MSM really cheapens people just so that they can sell more papers.
This is what Foong heard from her trusted source :
It seems that Tanjung Bungah assemblyman Teh Yee Cheu was already alerted about the case way before the MSM got a sniff about it. He had visited the boy and referred the case to the Welfare Department.
Just as he was getting things done to help the boy, a Buddhist group heard about it and immediately alerted the MSM and the whole thing came to light. See, if Yee Cheu is one of those crazy publicity politician, he would have called a press conference to point at the rubbish-filled apartment and point at the boy and declare that he is so great to have found out and he is now helping the boy.
But no, instead, he quietly went about helping the boy, probably to preserve the boy’s dignity and identity (which is now all shot to tatters thanks to the MSM) for the boy is surely a child abuse victim.
And the lengjai cyclist ADun Tee is the one on the far right. Hehehe. He actually signed up to cycle from Penang to China BEFORE he won the General Election. He is 50+ if I read correctly. Lengjai, hor?
Seems msm would rather take the opportunity to potshoot the dap guy than genuinely help out the poor boy.
This is the type of scums we have in the media/ruling party.
They disgust me.
LOL! You are definitely besotted with the DAP fellas aren’t you? Thanks for the link.
if they would hv thought about the boy, guess we wouldn’t be reading the headline.

i felt the boy is rather independent and smart. he walks to school by himself, buy food and make sure he finished his homework before going out with his frens..and always comes back by 8:30 pm…at least that’s what i read from the paper (the medium i get in my office)…
the woman have had 5 husbands and 6 kids,2 of which have alredy disown their mum long time ago.The kid whom appeared on newspaper,the 10 yrs old was arrested by police just last week of underage smoking.The 10 yrs old boy father’s first wife initially wanted to keep the kid cause of his condition but his mum wanted RM20k from the first wife so they the kid back to his mum.That woman got no job,she relies recycle of trash and yet those man she slept with,she have to jaga them-.-“
hallie – Wuah šÆ 5 husbands? LOL. But I think when she was young, she must be quite pretty, from her eyes and her face a bit like angmoh face.
aaron – You read hallie’s info and see?
cindy – Yalor, the papers kept showing the Ying Ying remains, never ending also.
Foong – Boh pien, every day I see MCA Lee Hack Teik in the papers, visiting Penang GH worrr. So, any man also hensem liao if you see Lee Hack Teik and Ong Ka Chuaks 2 bros. š
shadowfox – JeffOoi blogs he is going to sue NST back. Let’s see the fireworks. Hahaha.
You called? I heard someone mentioned lengjai. š
What is MSM?
wuah… underage smoking.. -_-”
speechless… very hard to trust newspapers nowadays..
When I came to know about this matter, there were tears in my eyes. My heart and mind took a step back. It was real sad piece of news to read. It is not about how courage this little boy was able to survive going through this 2years in life but I would put it as, “His life within this 10 years”.
I darned to imagine thinking about his 10years in life and the suffering throughout his growing up. On the other hand I was so glad that he had been found and will be safe.
I think we had NOT done enough to keep safe and protect the young ones and our future Malaysian.
lilian, one of the MSM horrrr ambik gua punya gambar, tarak tanya gua pun!!!!

I’m sorry to hear that the boy was born under a mother with psychiatric condition. While effort must be taken to rehabiltate the mother, at the same time we must not compromise the boy’s future.
Sometimes, people like Michael Chong are calling for unnecessary press conference, and as a result, they are under fire from members from the opposition parties. Calling for attention is a double edged sword – the most significant disadvantage being compromising the privacy of those involved in the matter. Really, those handling public complaints should seriously consider the consequences before they set eyes on those involved.
I’m glad to hear that this matter is coming to an end, and I hope that the boy will prosper under the care of his grandaunt. Let him find the significance of himself.
