How to dissapear completely : Part 1

Andy - why the hell you love doing these sort of stuffs? The problem about people is they love to ask WHY.....its strange when i always asked my students to ask WHY in my lectures, but they didn't, I always got tons of questions outside.

Why these sort of NGO? 

there are tons of NGO ok!!!!

Im not the type that jumps to any NGO and gave my services, normally i will try it out - observe how they work and what is their outcome, with initial primary research, then only i decide - Ok, this is a cool one, knowing myself - if i able to see any potential for a greater good, then do it. Plus being single helps too - as i found out people who are committed have nothing except excuses - the real reason is they are half hear-ted at the first place.

Well most people who in the NGO snapped more photos than doing actual work.....and yes someone took a picture of me - resting in the lorry after deploying 350 gas tanks in Kuala Krai ( the mission was unbelievable as we drove 440km in a single day ) - the one below - is the mission where we need to clean a madrasah in Temerloh.

The origins of Do Good starts during the emergency call for flood disaster missions that hit Kelantan and Terengganu, so from there, i  quit from doing anything and lend in my support and energy to INSAF. Its kinda cool as my former student is helping them too - found out they had been building 50 houses for deserving orang asli's in various places.

Its kinda fun building something substantial for them - a better place, that's all. No preaching, no nonsense, its pure 23 hours of man-work, blood, knocking and more sweat. Seeing them in a better shelter to build a more solid foundation is what i care about.


That is why i still refer to Maslow's hierarchy - people need several stages of need for them to be a better person. Again it's NEEDS ok not DESIRE. I used this also when i reflect back for H3R0, how and where H3RO fits into this awesome structure. Its nice seeing all the touring pictures Hasnul took - as the film is screened and performed in 7 small circuits.



Being involved with all of this helps me shed my individuality, shedding and destroying my EGO once and for all. Our life is very short - again - too too short, so is there a need to put ourselves into a meaningless routine? It helps me realize and strengthen my believe that we need to do substantial works - ITS NOT EASY ok!! ( people tend to appreciate nonsense better ) Practical and tangible - plus giving audience something to cherish - a cathartic experience.

Will be doing more anonymous Do Good projects this year.

But this time - i will be bringing more people.

Yahooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
