selalu mengamalkan kasih, dan dengan rendah hati hidup bersatu dengan Allah kita.
- Mikha 6:8Perkara yang dituntut oleh TUHAN daripada kita adalah supaya kita berlaku adil,
selalu mengamalkan kasih, dan dengan rendah hati hidup bersatu dengan Allah kita.

Posted on 30 May 2009 by Administrator
In his book, “People Like Us: How Arrogance Is Dividing Islam and the West”.

Disease Carriers We Once Were
Posted on 26 May 2009 by Josh Hong
Like many others who have grown increasingly adverse to the emasculated mainstream press, I hardly buy The Star. So huge thanks to Nat, whose recent posting alerted me to a highly xenophobic piece penned by Wong Chun Wai, the group chief editor of the best selling English daily in Malaysia.…
Ephesians 4:32
Posted on 26 May 2009 by Peter Young
Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. (Ephesians 4 : 32, New International Version)

Posted on 22 May 2009 by Administrator
Dear Dato’ Wong Chun Wai,
I have to place on record my deep disappointment at your recent article in The Sunday Star of 17 May 2009, under the title “A Disease Not To Be Sneezed At“. You have in essence attributed the incidence and resurgence of certain diseases in our…
Rule By Might, Not Right
Posted on 18 May 2009 by K. J. John
First let me congratulate the Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein for being consistent with the new prime minister’s rule of law edict for his One Malaysia vision.
