Rudyard Kipling"
āWhen you're left wounded on Afganistan's plains and
the women come out to cut up what remains, Just roll to your rifle
and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldierā
General Douglas MacArthur"
āWe are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.ā
āIt is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.ā āOld soldiers never die; they just fade away.
āThe soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.ā
āMay God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .ā āThe object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
āNobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
āIt is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
'Compared to Rafizi, I'm way poorer' - Saarani says By Isabelle Leong
Wednesday, November 09, 2022
Malaysiakini : Similar to contesting candidates from opposition parties who
have declared their assets, Perak Barisan Nasional (BN) chairperson
Saarani Mohamad said it wouldnāt be a problem for him to make such a
public declaration.
However, Saaranipointed out that the declaration of assets is not made necessary by the Election Commission.āNot
a problem (to declare assets). Weāre not that rich. If compared to
Rafizi (Ramli), Iām way poorer. If you compare me with Nga Kor Ming or
Ngeh Koo Ham, Iām still poorer,ā quipped the outgoing Perak menteri
besar.
Saarani (above)said this at a press conference after launching the Perak BN manifesto at Taman Permai Meru in Ipoh, Perak, last night.
āTherefore, Iām not worried if itās only to make such declarations. I have no problem with it.ā
PKR deputy president Rafizi Ramli became the first Pakatan Harapan candidate to declare his assets publicly on Nov 2, ahead of the 15th general election (GE15).

The Pandan
parliamentary seat candidate, who declared he has RM18,851,350 in net
assets as of Oct 31 this year, was taken to task where there is a
significant rise in the value of his start-up Invoke Solutions.PKR and PSM have required their candidates contesting in the national polls to declare their assets.
Mano : Oi!! If you have no problem, just do it!!!
Tak payah cakap je!!
Wang sakau orang bukan simpan dalam nama nya, kena simpan nama bini, anak, mertua etc.
Atau Azam Baki cakap dalam akaun brother.
NoobMaster69 : If you don't dare to declare your asset you better keep quite. No use talking if you can't do it. People will laugh at you only.
PiMaiPiMaiTangTu : Suruhlah rakan rakan dan boss boss you dalam umno declare asset jugak ya... Mungkin berbillion billion ada di bawah katil....
apanama is back : Saarani Mohamad, you declare your assets first. We will decided later whether you are poor or rich. There is no need of 'cakap pusing pusing'. We all know UMNO Baru-BN fellows.
All of you are much richer than what you will declare and 'wayang' as poor fellows.
No more takling here and there, just declare. Rafizi never talk, he just declare it.
DaveChappelle : Saarani, talk is cheap. Action speaks louder than words. No need for you to say you have no problem declaring your assets. Just put your money where your mouth is and declare your assets now!
