Memoirs of Kg.Berembang.....

It's those days when the evil prevails over the good....Kg.berembang is going down but not the memoirs....
Today I received another sad news where the MPAJ dons are tearing apart the village....Wished I owned a bulldozer so that i can bring down the houses of the Selangor's most idiotic dentist,the MPAJ councillors and all those involved in the fracases happening there..Then they can feel how does it feel ....Why not the celebrity ADUN Zainal's palace is not brought down....Double standard idiots....
My maternal side resided in Kg.berembang even before I was born..More than 40 years ago,my grandfather found a place in KL for his family as they were growing big in family members...He found an area near a forestry in Ampang..It was an area with heavy forestation and steep hills...He,my uncles and aunts cleared the hill and forest to open up a settlement...
Ask any one of the Indian villagers in Kg Berembang about 'high chapperel' and they would immediately point out to my granddad's house...This was because his house is among the biggest there and our land area was so big,that soon after his sons and daughters were married ,they build houses there itself...My first uncle,second and third uncle each owned a house there.My two aunts build a home for them there.Only my mum and another two aunt's moved out and stayed in their husband home somewhere else..These houses were build after my relatives cleared a hill using 'cangkul' and hand tools..A bulldozer was hard to come by those days....

I still cherish the days I grew up there..Every Saturday,Sundays and holidays, I and my brothers will actually park ourselves there...My cousin were aplenty there..The area was so big we use to play football,'rounders'(baseball in disguise) and we'll hold barbecues and camping sessions in my grand dad's area it self...Those were the days...

And not to forget there's where I met the apple of my eyes...my dearest life patner..my love for the past 14 years...And she with her parents are still residing there...a family, one of the remaining 5 families left behind in the Indian side of village...
Those were the days...But now the scenario is...
It looks like a war zone...Lorries roll in and roll out now and then ferrying sands...Indonesians virtually have a 'pasar malam' there...Criminals rolls in like nobodies buisness...And these guys always intimidate the the young gals and women in that area...Even my fiancee was chased by some of these guys one day, when she was walking back home..The poor girl ran faster than P.T. Usha and injured herself...Wished i were there at that time..i've would skinned those fellows..Police comes to this area often and often lingers around the Indonesia area...The only concern,are they there to protect the local residents or the Indonesians...God knows...
Till today the people of Kg.Berembang are continuously upper handed by the council and local community leaders whom already made a pact with the devil,earning what they wanted..Even one fool was made a senator and some became a councillor...
I will share with you about the corruption of these guys another time...As today is a day for me to recall all the memoirs i have of this place where most of my happy days were...I hoped my grand dad is not hurt from all of this..
may he rest in peace....

True man...the thing is, the person who suppose to rally behind us aka the Botak Samy and his comrades are the one who is creating more damage than any one...we are aliens even in the place we were born no thanks to the apartheid rulers of this nation...We need a new breed of Nelson Mandela to be given birth here...And cheers man...A day to booze my self has arrived at last...
