precious three seconds moment

I have one question.
This never occured to me before.
But, well, under this circumstances, I can’t help but wondering.

What would you say to the President of Republic of Indonesia if you get a chance to shake hands with him?

Oh… put that smiling face off of you! No kidding. I mean it.

I was at the State Palace last Friday (I know, I sound so important, huh?) on the commemorating of World AIDS Day. My office sponsored the event.
So we had a chance to shake hands with the president. On this rare precious (oww please!) opportunity, what would you say?

should I talk about SBY 100 days program?
about poverty?
poor mode of transportation?
HIV prevalence?

It’s only 3 seconds face to face moment, so the photographer could take your pictures.
(and I made sure they did not miss, hehe..).

Know what I said?
"Thank you"

For what??? Yeah… I’m not sure.
It just slipped my mouth.

So you’d better start thinking on what would you say, in case someday you have that precious three seconds. *grin

anak-anak bergincu

“Anak-anak Bergincu” by Bandung Wangi.
We couldn’t make them perform in State Palace on the commemoration of World AIDS Day, the protocol regulation was rigid. But we managed to make them perform on the Seminar on HIV/AIDS.

You see, the story was based on true story. It’s about young girls who were forced to work and sold by their bloody father! Yup, you heard me, their own bloody father!
They were told to be working as waitress. But they became sex workers instead.
Their fathers will come and collect the money from the pimp.
They must watch their back from ‘razia’. The police would put then in jail.

The play was funny. The words were witty. But it’s a tear-dropping, heart –breaking story.

Here’s the lyrics I remember from their song:
Kami tak mau hidup begini
harus terus berlari
Kalau ketangkap masuk bui
Si boss menebus dan dipotong gaji.

something tickes in your heart? or it's just me?
