My absence

I have not been writing these two weeks. I am down with a very bad flu.

It also naturally had to be the time I had to go on a company trip to Kuching with 40 other people. I hadn’t really expected a fantastic holiday to be honest. I was not fit to travel. But I silently trudged on, burning fever not withstanding.

Kuching, well, it is a sleepy town. But the fact that there are two municipal councils controlled by the minority groups came as a surprise. Division according to racial lines and worse, preferential treatment for a minority race and religion was a bit much to stomach. Well I am not a resident I do not have locus standi to question. The glaring inequity sits uncomfortably with me still.
