Merry Christmas!

Merry x mas to all...

Nowadays, more and more companies implement CSR initiatives and one of them is my wife BPO company (wife dont want me to mention the Co name)

My wife works there as one of the 'key' and most VIP women there... (hehe over proud husband).

Every festive season a bunch of them will go visit some orphans, etc to spend time with them and give them presents... oh yeah its part of their KPIs... sheesh!

Well the thought that counts:)

This x mas they went to one of the homes in Taman Megah, Petaling Jaya that provide CARE to the elderly, physically challenged people and under priviledge kids.

My wife, Miss Renuka Shanmugam and her colleagues went as early as 8.30am to the centre and spend half a day chatting and just being with 'them' in the spirit of x mas.. (and maybe even for the KPIs)...

But ofcoz after a few hours spending time there Renuka and some of her friends cant stand and keep on crying after the officers there shared some of the 'stories' of the humans who have been staying there either by force or by 'chance'!

Renu cried expecially she saw a cute baby that was given away to the centre... the mother was a foreigner and had an affair with another foreigner and both 'parents' do not want the child for reasons of their own selfish thinking! Renu keep on sharing with me her 'experience' at the centre and i cant help thinking how much my 'baby' have matured and now CARE about 'strangers'! Im so very proud of her spending almost a whole day with 'them' instead of 24 7 worrying about her datelines in her projects at the Company...

But one of the thing that she told me is that the centre did not receive any support financially from the government except for some so called 'moral support' or what ever that means!

I still dont understand WHY the government not supporting them!

I told my wife that i will go there next week and 'interview' the centre manager for more inputs and i will find out more details and help them get somethings from the gov. InsyAllah..

merry x mas:)
