Buruh Migran, Pahlawan Devisa

Assalamualaikum,

Having read FLP Hongkong's book, I finally understand. Yes, they need some respects.
Too bad some of us, maybe including me, could not give them proper respects they ought to receive.

Yah, today I'll be on a plane, going to SG, as usual, everything looks gloomy.And to my sadness, there are a lot of Indonesian migrant workers who will be leaving Indonesia, going to Hongkong. They are wearing short bergho, sometimes they stand, and sometimes they are asked to sit down. They are waiting patiently.What expressions are they wearing in their faces?? Anxiety? Fear? Happy? I don't know. If I had a pen and a drawing book, I would have drewn those expressions. Just for the sake of keeping me sane, to help me realise how lucky I am.

Those migrant workers. They make me look very ungrateful to my Creater. Yes God, indeed, I'm an ingrate. I do have almost everything I could ever wanted in my life given to me in a plate. They...they don't know what kind of future waiting for them in those countries. Hongkong, Saudi Arabia, Singapore...:( . Saudi Arabia is definitely a Muslim country. But why their religion doesn't prevent them from abusing their maids? I've heard that many people have a tendency to abuse people whose social and economic status are below theirs. It's so sad...What's the difference them? Doesn't it mean an imperialism in a new way?

Some says, that what you see is what you'll get. What are they seeing right now? Let me know. Just let me know.
Still the biggest question I've ever had in my life...

Best,
Adilla
