Before reading, I'd like you guys to watch this video. It gives a hint about what I'm gonna say in the next few lines.
Yes people. Even though we're living in the modern age now, there are still wars and sufferings happening out there. Imagine the refugees in a war torn country, forced to fled from their hometown, scared about the thought that they could die any second, begging on the streets because food is scarce, little children having to grow up without their parents by their sides.
While in other part of the world, some eat luxuriously, while some died of hunger. While some is enjoying their freedom, some are rounded up in a refugees camp. While some sleeps comfortably on their beds, some sleeps on the rough and rocky dirt because they have nowhere else to go.
So do a good deed people, because one single deed could change the whole world.
We wanted to ask about the drive, but no one was presence at that time. So, when our cameraman was about to take the booth's picture, one of persons in charge came by. Lucky for us. Wouldn't want to see a picture of an empty booth now, do we? That'll lower down the popularity.
Above : Rafeah Serbini
On the right : Waleed
Then we came across Waleed, a Mobility student who represents the Ace Society on the Comic Relief charity drive. Our reporter asked him several questions about the relief.
Us : So Waleed, what's this Comic Relief all about?
Waleed : Basically, it's doing crazy things for charity. We're doing all this crazy stuffs to gather enough money so that we could donate it to the nearby orphanage, which we had a visit there recently.
Us : Crazy, huh? What sort of crazy thing's you guys're gonna pull?
Waleed : For example, I'm gonna shave my head after this.
Us : What?! Really? That's cool man. I hope you'll look like Jason Statham(google him if you don't know who he is) after you've shaved your head.
Waleed : Yeah. All this for charity.
Us : Well good luck to you then. So any last words before you continue your charity?
Waleed : Um yeah. Please promote us to anybody you could. And plus, you stand to win RM30 if
you participate in our paper cup castle competition. Only RM1 per entry.
Us : I see. So Walid, thanks a lot for your time. Hope you'd make a lot in this drive.
Waleed : Thank you. Hey guys, don't forget to donate!
On the next day, 1st April 2009, Waleed REALLY DID shaved his head! Give the man a standing ovation!
After we covered the Comic Relief charity drive, our cameraman suggested that we cover about the booth just right over. So we went there and interviewed the booth persons there about their motives.
Us : Hi there. Can we ask some questions about this Amnesty thingy that you're doing?
AmnestyOfficer(AO) : Of course. Feel free to ask any questions.
Us : First of all, what's Amnesty by the way?
AO : It's basically human rights. So what we are doing here is to promote the awareness of human rights to the students.
Us : I see. So are doing some sort of charity too?
AO : Yes. Alongside of educating the society about amnesty, we are also holding a charity for those who have their human rights abused, for example ; war-torn country children, sexually abused women and others.
Us : That is a very thoughtful thing to do. Ok, so thanks a lot for the information.
AO : No problem.
