This is where I was raised by my parents. And tonight I had my childhood
dejavu. It is about 10pm at night and the football field is still
active. Not with footballers but with groups of kids and teenagers
practicing Malay Martial Arts. And for the toddlers, they are swinging
and having fun at the playground. Some are playing catch. Far right, if
you can see, young boys are playing futsal. Far left not in this
picture, is our Surau. Our prayer place. The faithfuls are still there.
And that big hall in the background is where the badminton lovers play
their games. Surrounding this vibrant field are parents and families
sitting, chatting and just spending time together on the benches
watching their kids play. Kids here are not on gadget tonight. And this
is what I love about it. This is the place where I grew up. And Tariq is
there playing on the same field I played once. Dejavu indeed..
