MH370 : Neither an update, nor an opinion, just some lessons I've learnt. 8th March 2014.
By Rara - Friday, March 28, 2014
Things happen for reasons. Whatever happens around us, it is our responsibility as an active khalifah to find out what is the reason and what you can learn from that. It's kinda what I believe in. Hehe.
Saturday, March 8
Flight takes off: Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 departs at 12:41 a.m.local time on Saturday, and is due to land in Beijing at 6:30 a.m. on the same day. The flight was carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew members. The passengers are of at least 12 different nationalities; all crew on-board are Malaysians.
Mysterious disappearance: The flight loses contact with air traffic controllers about an hour after taking off. The last-known position of the plane was 120 nautical miles off the east coast of the Malaysian town of Kota Bharu, Malaysia Airlines chief executive Ahmad Jauhari Yahya said. The aircraft was flying in good weather conditions and disappeared without warning or a distress signal.

Confirmation of flight's fate:Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak says fresh analysis of satellite data tracking MH370 shows the flight ended its journey with passengers and crew members in the southern Indian Ocean, west of Perth - a remote location, far from any possible landing sites.
1. Respect everyone.
When the news came out, most of us came out with their own theories, worse, make fun of it! I've even seen people compare with movies they've seen. Words like "how can it just disappeared? Blackhole?". It's really stupid. If you were one of the relatives of the passenger, would you say it? The news was "missing", as long as the status is "missing", everyone is still hoping (except you heartless people). Imagine if your sister hadn't contacted you for 8 hours, you'd get upset if people say she's been kidnapped right? Just wait for update. She might be sleeping over her friends house, lost her phone, etc, isn't it? So stop being a Detective Conan!
2. Hold responsibility bravely.
For example, I refer to these three people :
a) Datuk Seri Hishamuddin Hussein (Menteri Pertahanan)
b) Datuk Azharuddin Abdul Rahman (Ketua Pengarah DCA)
c) En Ahmad Jauhari Yahya (CEO MAS)
They answered to every questions and criticism so professionally during the conference. Reminded me of Rasulullah who always spoke nicely, especially towards people with lack of knowledge. I think people who kept on saying bad things about these people who stood out when the rest of the world are saying otherwise, are just blind. Haha. Something is really bad with your heart, you should get a treatment.
3. Don't make up things just to gain respect.
I noticed one of the sickness in our culture is that everyone is kind of self-conscious, insecure. That's not really the right word but heyy.. We all are so desperate to be respected, to be seen intelligent, that we are willing to do anything! Come out with our own theories, to the extend of causing some chaos, just because nobody wants to lower down the ego. Like a duck and a chicken quarreling about how a cat meow. Huh
Relax, just wait for any update from the conference. Unless you've flown your own jet and went to the scene. Or have decades of experience in aeronautical field. If not, just wait. That doesn't make you less-intelligent at all, it's just we're living in a society, every one of us are intelligent in our own field. You'd ask mother if you lost something instead of father, right? Because you know mother always know where to find, does it make your father less-intelligent? No, right?
4. Trust those working on the scene.
The latest nincompoop thing I hear is "how can it took so long to capture the satellite image?". Pfftt. That's why I always say to my friends not believe what you see on tv, movies, they're just our fantasy. Keep your feet on the ground and ask the people with knowledge of that particular topics. Simple analogy : you don't ask Mathematics problem to Biology teacher right?
I read a Chinese article saying that it takes 3 days, almost 72 hours (yes they work 24 hours!!) just to analyse any satellite image! Even if I didn't read it, just work your brain, have you ever seen the satellite image from google? It's the data of several days, months, ago! If a satellite image can be seen like you use a telescope, how can the data on google image takes so long to update, right?
So stop ruining our own nations by discussing with your friends how lazy Malaysian army, leaders, are! They are the one who wants the problem to be solved as soon as possible. They have to work days and nights, through the storms, you know how harsh the whether is? Not going home, missing their families, families worried about the safety of those searching, you ever thought of this?
Some even complained why our medias doesn't show the searching scene live and Malaysia only get the image from CNN, huhhh? I know Malaysia medias aren't totally "sincere" sometimes, (come onnn every medias are! Just know how to differentiate which news are acceptable, then just shut upp) but I TOTALLY BELIEVE OUR MEDIAS MORE THAN CNN! CNN is crap when it comes to humanity.. Huh -_-
People out there are saying bad things about Malaysia and the sad thing is, we as a Malaysian, are agreeing with it and saying bad things about our "government". Why is it so difficult for us to understand that you, a Malaysian, are one of the "government" as well? Doesn't matter who's representing it, do you realize whatever happens in our country, is a result of all of us as a nation? This is what we want. If the majority doesn't want something to occur, it won't. One leader doesn't make a decision, there are many respectable intelligence behind who will advise so it will fit the people.
If concerts are being held everywhere around us, maybe it's time for us to reflect : astaghfirullah, I was one of the person who sang along, support those singers against Islam and making the youngsters nowadays supporting it as well. Nauzubillahi min zaalik.
