Big Flood.

In the old days, dynasty who ruled the empire of China were said to have mandate from God. Hence, emperors were regarded as an extension of God. Whatever he said will be the words of God and his actions will be the actions of God. And a dynasty will end its rule when the mandate from God was withdrawn by – obviously – God himself. An end to a mandate will be when the empire is hit with a major natural disaster like a big earthquake or a big flood (sounds familiar?).

If this whole mandate system applies to my country, Malaysia, it looks like the current government is losing its mandate. But, that if only the same system applies, so, there is nothing that the government should worry about.

Speaking of big flood, I would like to express my deepest sympathy to those who are suffering from the big flood in Malaysia. This flood is regarded as one of the worst flood in the history of the country. I would also like to express my condolences to those whose families were involved in a boat capsize tragedy of the coast of Sabah yesterday. May these dark clouds hanging over Malaysia will finally make way for a brighter sun very soon. AMEN.
