11 November

Today, in UK and other commonwealth countries ( eg: Australia, NZ) ppl here observed this day as Remembrance day. Another name are "Poppy day" or "Armistice day". It is a day to commemorate the sacrifices of members of the armed forces and civilians in times especially since World War 1. It is recalled on 11 November to recall the end of World War 1 on the date of 1918.

Well I ask my fellow Ang Mo mates, they said its not only for the sacrifices of World War 1, but including other wars in the world where they gain liberty and freedom in the country for all the sacrifices that their forefathers. I shall not brief for more about the details of the ceremony, you could wikipedia it and check it out.

But I'm disturbed by what happening over half of the globe, Malaysia. It is a day we had a riot. A riot that our ppl are crying and urging for a clean politic and election. Eventhough after 50 years of independence, do we really gain independence? As christians, I urged you to pray for our land.
