Balai Seni Negara's Treasures

In life you don't know what is going to happened tomorrow. My friend said " kesian Pak Mail and Piya....takder orang nak layan"........( for your information Ismail Zain and Redza Piyadasa is an educationist first then only a writer and finally a practising artist ). God bless their generous soul  as they are wise and experienced.

Socrates killed himself rather than face the stupidity around him man...............(google why he drank the hemlock ) "Academic" Being an ...
