Old Already La.

There is just too much animosity in the world of politics and their players. Will it end the same way? Hopefully not.

Samy: I say man, Keng Yaik, long time no see, I thought you mati. How are you? It’s always nice to see an old friend la.

Keng Yaik: Samy ah? Ayo Samy, luckily I meet you la. I thought I am going to be lonely here la. How are you ha old friend? Wah! you also here ha?

Samy: Yes, la Keng Yaik. When we all got power, everyone wants to kiss our feet. If ask to kiss backside also they would do it la, but now see what happens? Last time ah, I am like god to them la. Why? I can give out contracts, now, want to supply toilet paper to them also they don’t want to give la.

Keng Yaik: Why? Your children don’t want to accept you anymore ka?

Samy: No, they all ok but they all always busy. Grandchildren all big already, all busy. I alone in the house, no friends. Every time I call old friends, they say the are busy. I cannot la stay at home without friends. Even the gardeners and servants are busy, no time to talk to me. So I decided to come to this home la.

Keng Yaik: Hey, Samy, see, see!

Samy: See what?

Keng Yaik: There, there! Isn’t that Mahathir?

Samy: Where? Ah, yes, Mahathir la. Why is he here? I am sure his children didn’t chase him out.

Samy: Ha, yes la. Ayo I don’t believe this la. Ah Kit la? Yes, that one Ah Kit.

Keng Yaik: Don’t bluff la Samy, cannot be Ah Kit la. They all big enemies where can sit down together one?

Samy: Come we all go and greet them. It’s Ah Kit la I tell you.

Keng Yaik: Tun! Tun! Tun Mahathir! Is that you?

Mahathir: Aaah Keng Yaik, Samy, come come come. Sit down, sit down. Long time no see. Ah Kit, please take two more chairs. I would have done it myself but I sudah tua la Ah Kit, please?

Ah Kit: No problem one Tun, we all sudah tua, must help each other la. No problem, you sit down, don’t get up. I’ll get the chairs.

Samy: Tun, that’s Ah Kit ka? Itu Kit Siang kan? Ayo, I don’t believe what I am seeing la. He can help you get the chairs some more. What happened Tun? You mandrum sama dia ka?

Mahathir: Chih, where got mandrum all. Sudah tua la Samy, forget about the past la. After all, he is okay what.

Keng Yaik: Wah, I feel like I am going to cry la. Seeing so many old friends here and seeing you and Ah Kit getting on together well.

Dollah: Just now I malu want to come here. I saw you all long time already but segan la. Then Samy said you all invited me here, sure I come la. So nice to meet old friends la.

Samy: I’ll tell Keng Yaik to get another cup of coffee. Pak Lah, no sugar ah?

Dollah: You still remember ah Samy.

Mahathir: How come you are here Dollah?

Dollah: I was about to ask you all the same question. Frankly speaking, I am tired already of all this politics. Tak boleh tahan already la. No peace at all la. I told my children I am going away and don’t look for me. If I want to speak to them I’ll call them. Jane also happy here.

Mahathir: You are right la Dollah. I also letih la. No life at all la. Every time must jaga to see if someone wants to stab you in the back. You Ah Kit?

Ah Kit: After that Perak MB affair, they all marah me so terok one. They say my thinking outdated already. Come to think of it ah, time has changed la. Their thinking is different from mine. Difficult for me to adopt to their style so the best thing to do is to back out gracefully la.

Keng Yaik: Ah, your coffee Samy with 2 kilos sugar and yours Pak Lah, no sugar.

Samy: One thing about you ah Keng Yaik, your coffee forever full ah? No matter how much you drink still full one.

Keng Yaik: I know, you want to say I spit a lot, you think I don’t know ka? You ah Samy next time drink coffee put milk la.

Samy: Why?

Keng Yaik: The colour of your lips and the coffee same only, people don’t know which one is the coffee, which one your lips.

Samy: Tengok, tengok, ini cilaka

Ah Kit: From last time until now still quarrel ka? You two are jokers la.

Keng Yaik: Why Tun, what are you thinking of?

Mahathir: I am thinking where is Zam, Rafidah, Kayveas and Tengku Adnan?

Samy: Zam ka? He is here also what. There in that stall there selling news papers. I heard Tengku Adman is a tourist guide. Rafidah and that other idiot I don’t know la.

Keng Yaik: Rafidah is a used car sales-person. I heard she is selling used Naza cars and kayveas is a commissioner of oath in Taiping.
