Heroic Malaysian

One of the news articles published in The Star newspaper today sickened and angered me tremendously. Robbers apparently gunned down a Bah Kut Teh seller, Soo Lee Choo, because she poured a bowl of hot soup at them. The bravery act was supposed to ward off the robbers but subsequently costs her life. People like Soo should and must be commended for her selfless and bravery act. Her sacrifice of her own life should not be in vain. The culprits must be brought to justice. The robbers must be arrested, tried and sentenced with maximum punishment as provided for in the court of law.

Our society today is filled and inundated with selfish people and bloodsuckers. It took me awhile to realize that there is still hope in this society after reading Soo’s great story. Even greater is the fact that she was somebody's daughter, wife and mother but died for people who were not related to her.....
