“Ramai rakyat Malaysia di UAE merasa sgt bertuah dapat hidup dgn penuh rasa selamat... Rata2 kadar jenayah sangat rendah, dan setiap individu boleh keluar di bila2 masa tanpa rasa takut....”
Errr.....!!!! uweekekkkkkk....!! termuntah gua baca balik the above 2 phrases dlm bahasa malaysia baku... rasa macam menjawap soalan SPM ler pulak...!! so... how...? camna nak convertkan blog nih ke bahasa malaysia... baru 2 ayat, dah nak termuntah sendiri...!! muahahaha...!!
Anyhow, back to the story mory... secara amnya UAE is very safe (but frankly KSA laaaagii safe… sumpah tak tipu never bohong oneeee…!! :D). but lately disebabkan keadaan ekonomi yg “melecet” nih, we start to see some trouble in some areas (tapi kengkadang, berita2 kat sini pun kena tapis dek gomen depa…). Apa yang menyedihkan ialah, kebanyakan jenayah2 yang berlaku, adalah angkara orang2 asing juga... abih tuh nak buat camna...? 80% of UAE population is composed of foreigners maaa...
Ada juga yang mengambik kesempatan terhadap pekerja2 asing di UAE... Berita pekerja2 asing dianiaya kerap juga keluar di suratkhabar. Yang anehnya, mereka bukannya dianiaya oleh rakyat Emarati, tetapi oleh warga2 asing dari negara yang lain...
It has been reported in newspapers that sometimes, you get drivers dressed in local attire, who will hit your car from behind, then threaten to call the police, simply because they “think” that you have alcohol in your car… or that you have been drinking… this often happen in Sharjah where alcohol is strictly prohibited, and it is alrdy a crime to be in possession of alcohol. So, in order to settle the case, you will have to pay a hefty some of money to these supposedly Emarati teenagers…
The thing is that this incident happens quite often because people living in Dubai, go across Sharjah to buy duty free alcohol at “Barracuda supermarket”, at the other side of the Emirate of Sharjah, (that is the Emirate of Ajman). Jadik bila depa dah abih shopping & nak bawak balik rete2 karun tuh balik ke Dubai, depa kena lalu balik tengah2 Sharjah… knowing this fact, some people just take advantage of the situation. Broad day light robbery nih selalu berlaku ke atas Mat2 Salleh dan kereta2 yang drebarnya muka Pinoy…
2 hari lepas, sorang geng kepada geng nih kena sabo dek orang arab yemen… dia tengah jalan2, then dia kena “pow” sama this group of arab Yemeni teenagers… dia lari, masuk kereta then speeded up the car… unfortunately, geng Yemeni nih dah siap sedia dgn batu… and threw the stones to the car… the car back window was cracked and the car had some scratches…
Sempena nak buat cerita, kawan ni buatlah repot polis… (to claim the insurance maaa…), polis buat siasatan, then tahan sorang budak Yemeni nih… Kawan nih was called to balai to identify the culprit, and kira confirm lah, dia konpemlah that budak tu memang seorang drpd depa yg dlm group yg pow dia earlier… you know what jadik lepaih tuh…??
Budak nih rupanya anak polis UAE (walaupun dia warga Yemeni, depa boley kerja polis kat sini)… dia siap buat ceghita lagi yang kawan Pinoy nih yang cuba assaulted dia… dia pusing punya pusing punya pusing ceghita… perrghhhh….!! memang boley buat drama swasta… bapak dia pulak, siap kasik warning sama this kawan Pinoy nih yg he will give further pbm to him kalo dia tak “drop” the case… buat “deekkk” jer dia kasik warning depan Pak polisi yang lain…. Boley camtu…? (somehow, this part sounds like Malaysia... keh keh keh...!!)
Camna like that…? You tell me…? Depa boley buat ceghita mcm2, buat komplot sesame depa sebangsa, then lepaih tuh can get the friend into trouble langsung kena deported lak kang…!! The risk was just too high that kawan nih, signed the waiver form dan tak akan press charges against the youth… Frankly, I would do the same...
Polis2 yang lain macam tahu keadaannya, tapi tak leh kata apa sebab kalo depa dtg balik dgn 7 saksi mengatakan benda yg sama, siapa akan menang kat mahkamah kang…?
How like that…? Inilah adat merantau nih… jgn mencari masalah… dan kengkadang tuh, nasib tak baik, musibah menimpa badan,… terima sajerlah dgn redha… lain kali kena hati2 dan don’t take things for granted….!!
Abis ceghita… eh… ceghita di atas adalah berdasarkan sebuah cerita benar… kalo silap2 details sket tuh, sori laaa… me not journalist nak menyeybok tannya all the details kat kawan Pinoy tuh… dah la dia trauma dgn incident nih….
Anyhow… these kind of incidents, akhirnya akan mencemarkan imej UAE jugak… sayangnya, jenayah itu dilakukan oleh warga asing yg kengkadang menyamar sebagai warga Emarati…
Jangan tak tahu, k…!! :)
dangerous slippy road.... the first rains are always the most dangerous.... coz, jalan masih berbutir pasir, dan bila dicurahi hujan renyai2, ianya akan menjadi sangat licin... "Break tak makan".... Bila dah hujan lama, the road becomes less slippery.... (something interesting that I have learned while being in Dubai....)
Khorfakkan beach... conclusion, it was a nice outing with office colleagues... bonding session with the team...!! :)
