4. But, I think, for a start after a long silence, let it be more recent issues and incidents. 
5. I want to highlight an important issue when we met an  incident and what are the things we need to do in order to assist the victim:   

• Call the nearest police station (if don't have the police  phone number, don't worry, please remember this number "112". This 112 number is the TM telephonist and he/she can assist you to put you through any related emergency departments related to your call. i.e. police, firefighter, ambulance etc. The 112   can also be reached although there is no network coverage. I have been using this 112 service quite few times though.

Breast feeding vs insufficient money in local IPTAs

• Recently, 2 stories were widely discussed in most social medias. 
• Many people tried to show their professional opinions about the issues.
• Sometimes, it is so difficult to understand the people's perceptions though.
• I still remember, it was hardly seen for mothers to breastfeeding their infants openly long time ago.
• But, when the mother breastfeeds the infant and take video or photos and published openly, I think it is not appropriate.
• But, since we are living in the democratic country so everyone deserves to express his/her opinion though.
• Another interesting issue is about some students suffered a lot in local universities.
• I was a student in a local university back in 1993.
• Since my family background was not as fortunate to others, I always remind myself to be very careful in spending money.
• A student can save a lot if he/she plans his/her spending well.
• From my observation in UUM, some students spend their money unnecessarily on unimportant things. 
• Sadly, some of them are from poor family but try to show off to their friends.
• I hope the students can change their mindset.
