WHAT WOULD U DO? UNFORGETABLE.
i went to USM in penang for MASUM-Majis Sukan Universiti Malaysia for swimming. from 13-15 mac 2009. Even though i’m not very good but there is no other swimmer in upm so i’m the few lucky ones that have this opportunity to wakil upm.. anyway, this is not what i want to blog about today.
so in Penang, on 14 Mac 2009 night, we wanted to go out to eat some Penang Food. So Bilong’s friend named Faisal came with his Kancil and fetch us (Bilong, Willbert, Clair, and me) to town. we came to this makan place near the beach. the makan place got two parts, one is the chinese half, and the ohter is the malay half. so Faisal being a malay, we sat in the malay half.
Clair and i want to eat “Ow Jian” (the oyster egg omelete) and i wanted the Balitong(a kind of siput that u need to suck to eat) so we went to the chinese half to buy and tabao so that we can eat togather. so we tabao and paid. then we joined back and eat togather with Bilong they all at the malay half. As i sit down, i ordered my drink. then there are 2 little Myanmar gilrs came and begging for money. i ignored and they left. Moments later the drinks arrived and i need to pay. “OH SHIT! WHERE IS MY WALLET??!” (the time was 10pm)
i looked around but dont see my wallet, i asked around but nothing much can help me.. die lo..
then i met that two Myanmar girls again and ask them about my wallet. the older girl with green tudung said that her “friend” with red tudung and orange cloths had “found” a wallet with alot money and she’s gone back. this green tudung girl’s name is Norkaidah. we leanrt that this Myanmar begger kids will take the last ferry everynight to go back to seberang Prai. so Faisal called up his friend named Hanif. then Hanif came with his Waja.
at this point Bilong, wilbert and Faisal went to the jetty and try to look for them. Clair, me and Hanif walked around then we saw other Myanmar begger boys. we approched them and asked them about “who is this red tudung girl with baju oren?” then one of them answer ” ah, itu ialah adik dia” pointing to his friend, a little boy. immediately Hanif hold that boy’s hand and did not let go.
then, asking the others to go and find her. we ask about where is his sister. this little boy just talk all kind of lies and nonsence and ask to be released. Hanif keep on giving the boy pressure threatening him that we would bring him to balai polis.. after some time, (12.00am) that boy then took out RM81.00 from his poket. (yes that is surely my money, nobody would give a begger small boy RM50+RM10×3) that is my money.) where is the rest of my money? (in my wallet i had about RM300+) he said Norkaidah is the one who gave him the money.
At that moment i really felt like i’m an idiot because before that i’ve been speaking to Norkaidah.. why did i not spotcheck her that moment?? arh.. (but we never know whether this boy is lying or telling the truth, they speak their mother tongue and we will never know what they had already pakat.)
this small boy said Norkaidah gave out my money and my wallet was left at the park. so we ask him him to show us where is the place my wallet was being thrown. he lead us to to park just next to the makan place. Nope! no wallet could be found. at that park there are other ppl , kids and families there so many other ppl had taken my wallet or some how its not there anymore (but once again, we never know is he telling the truth or not.)
no wallet. so i ask him where is Norkaidah, where is his parents?where is Norkaidah’s parents? he was now scared and begging for us to let him go. he said Norkaidah with her mother stay at the tokong cina kecil. and he lead us there. but we dont want to walk there so we got up the Wajar and Kancil to go to this tokong cina and indeed we saw them. Norkaidah sleeping with papar cardboard, with her younger sister, her mum, and another lady with her newborn baby. all of them at the floor outside the temple , beggers.
we approuch them and ask them about my wallet and the mother then just dont stop talking all kinds of stuff saying its not Norkaidah, saying they are poor, hand got accident, she got heart problems, her husband in jail, her child was sick.. blah blah..
“Aunty SENYAP!, jangan cakap, saya mau dengar Norkaidah yang cakap aunti SENYAP” by Hanif.. Norkaidah never admited anything and said it’s that “tudung merah,baju oren”.. blah blah..(all lies) OKeh! kita pergi balai.. the mother just cant shut her mouth and soon the penang crowd gathered around just and all talking their Hokkien which i dont understand.so we need to get away from the crowd. we pull Manu-(the small boy, now we know his name) out toward the place where we park our car and also the younger little girl.
we ask the little girl about the money and she said “Duit sudah bagi kat emak.” then we argue again near the car and again the crowd gathered. “OKeh Fine, kita selesai di Balai!” Everyone got up the car. they (the longakang smell) got up Hanif’s Wajar, we hop on the kancil. going to the balai.
then Hanif stop the car and we try to talk again. (at first, we dont care much about my cash, and all i want back is my wallet and my documents like Mycard, Driving Lesen, Matrik Card, ATM cards. But now my wallet is missing and cant find it back anymore. so now that i cant have my wallet back then please give me back my cash then i’ll let u all go. see that Manu had given me back RM81 and little girl said the rest of the money is with u!)
so now if u just give me back RM200 then i let u all go and no need to go balai. (reminding that tomorrow we stil need to swim and its now late 2.00am. so if we all go balai this will not settle until 5.00 am. so if we all go balai in the end i stil wont get back my wallet and u ppl will be in lokap. so now no point going to balai for no body get any benefit out of it.
but they said no money.. “SPOTCHECK!”
we dont really find anything in their bags. then the lady try to give out her money , its their hard earning begger’s money of many crumbled RM1.00 notes.. NO.. this is not my money (my money is RM50.00 notes. not these RM1.00 notes) now the children are terrified and crying. Ahiya, tak kan i want to put my hands into ur bra and under ur panties to korek for my cash right?
in the end .. fine now i cant get back my wallet nor my cash. memang saya nasib malang. what to do? … just let them go.
so pusing balik to tokong and let them go.
lapor polis (never mention anything, just said tercicir)
go back and sleep.3.00am

one thing i learnt is that when u hilang IC, never say that “tercicir” . instead say that u kena pick pocket, or kena curi would be better. because the word “tercicir”=RM110.00 when u want to go and make new IC.
once u lost ur wallet call up the banks and block ur ATM cards and Credit cards!.
if u can proof u r a student when u go do new IC u get half price (RM50 only) if u kena kompaun
this whole thing is just so SHITY because if i just hilang wallet , just lapor polis and just can balik tidur, But now i tangkap this boy, and get back some but not all my money.. things get so complicated..
what would u do if this kinda shit happens to u?
