This morning i read kosmo. Centre page. this what i think about it.

People used to say... Be like robin hood... Robin hood is good, kind. Robin hood is a hero! Phuiii.... I don't think so. Once he's a thief, he's a thief. i don't care if he stole any money, items or anything belong to rich people and give to the poor. He still a thief. There's other way to help poor people. Maybe robin can do business, trade something or other thing to help others. Maybe we need to call him Robin 'crook'.

I often heard people said that rich people is a bad guy. They only care about their money. Rich people dont care about poor people. No... not all rich people is like that. I say, 100million people like us give 1 dollar each. we only get 100million to give to poor people/reseach org/aids foundation/educations/tsunami. We need 100 million people. Do you know this group only need 1 generous ultra rich people to give that same amount? how about only 5% of all ultra rich people do a good things. Maybe i would say 30 guys who want to give 100mill each. Is this guy crook or robin hood crook? Do you know that bill gates (that most people say he's a crook) give nearly 1 billion (not million) every year to their foundation, for aids, cancer group, africa, malaria sceintist etc etc. That's only 1 example. Do you know that in malaysia, Malays most rich guy (dont remmeber his full name, maybe Syed...) give millions a year for his foundation. Can we give more than 10% of our salary to the poor? Shame on us!!! Shame on us... For me, i don't think all the rich people is a bad guy. We can judge the book by its cover. Not all of rich people like to show their 'good'. So how about we think, 'how we want to be a rich poeple that help people'.

My uncle use to say... "Pemurah jangan boros, Berjimat jangan kedekut".... This is what i want to do... (can anyone translate this words in a good phrase?)
