Today is Raya and the streets are quite deserted. Many sudah balik kampung. But as usual we usually come across the odd ones who seemingly are left out.I stay at Taman Desa and I came across a Malay guy returning home with a fishing rod in his hand. So I asked him- " Eh- Raya pun pergi mancing ikan?" I could not interpret his response-"Apa nak bikin? Tiada sebab nak balik kampung!"
It just dosen't happen during Raya- the fact is - it happens during Chinese New Year,Deepavali and Christmas the ones who dont have a reason to return to family.For a moment I felt sorry for him.But I sobered up when he gave his parting comments-ENGKAU PUN SAMA CERITA KAH???"
