  • Parents Didn’t Want To Think, Son Named “Slamet Hari Natal”

    Parents Didn’t Want To Think, Son Named “Slamet Hari Natal”

    JAKARTA (JAKARTA POST/ASIA NEWS NETWORK) – A 54-year-old man living in East Java was named Slamet Hari Natal, meaning Merry Christmas, by his parents because he was born on Dec 25, 1962.

    “Yes, that’s my name,” the man said as quoted by tribunnews.com on Tuesday (Dec 27).

    He showed his ID card and family card, which said his name was “Slamet Hari Natal”.

    “It was supposed to be Selamat Hari Natal, but because we are Javanese, it became Slamet,” he said.

    He said his mother gave birth to him in the house of the midwife, named Akas Kiyo, in Tumpang, Malang. The midwife was Christian and suggested his parents to name him Selamat Hari Natal, the Indonesian Christmas greeting.

    His parents, although Muslims, decided to accept the suggestion but named him Slamet instead. Slamet is a common Javanese name and loosely translates to “safe”.

    “They said they didn’t want to think hard for the name, and they had that name ready, so they accepted the suggestion,” he said.

    He has one sister named Mujiati.

    Although his name is Slamet Hari Natal and he is a Muslim, he said he never received any criticism from his neighbours.

    “No, never. We practice tolerance here,” he said.

  • Kamarul – The Bus Captain That Shelters His Passengers From Rain

    Kamarul – The Bus Captain That Shelters His Passengers From Rain

    He always fretted whenever he saw his passengers who were caught in the rain run into the air-conditioned bus.

    They could catch a cold and fall sick, SBS Transit bus captain Kamarul often thought.

    Five months ago, he chose to do something about that.

    Mr Kamarul, who has been driving for about a year, would stand between the bus and bus stop with an umbrella to shelter those without one.

    His kind acts warmed the hearts of those he helped as well as witnesses, who shared it on SongHe’s Good Man Good Deeds Good Rice Facebook page.

    In an interview with Lianhe Wanbao in September, Mr Kamarul, 29, said he was inspired by his mother’s advice.

    “My mother once met a kind bus captain who alighted from the bus to help carry her shopping bag after he noticed how heavy it was,” said Mr Kamarul.

    “When she found out I was going to become a bus captain too, she reminded me to be patient with the passengers and help whenever I can.”

    He added: “If my passengers can benefit from that little action of mine, why not?”

  • Unable To Find Muslim Workers, Pies & Coffee No Longer Halal-Certified

    Unable To Find Muslim Workers, Pies & Coffee No Longer Halal-Certified

    *** IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ***

    Pies & Coffee have announced that w.e.f. 1st January 2017, they will not be certified Halal until further notice.

    They informed that this was due to the fact that they “were not able to maintain a minimum of 3 Muslim staffs per outlet” which is a requirement for the MUIS certification. They added that their suppliers will remain unchanged and they will work towards meeting the requirements and re-applying for Halal certification in the future.

    We’d like to thank Pies & Coffee for being upfront and giving a clear and detailed explanation (unlike some other places). We look forward to seeing Pies & Coffee being certified again in the near future hopefully.

    Please help spread the word everyone and let’s support again when the time comes again okay!

  • Singaporeans Must Get Out Of Comfort Zone, Explore Dying Trades

    Singaporeans Must Get Out Of Comfort Zone, Explore Dying Trades

    Masonry work is a dying profession in Singapore. I’ve not come across any Singaporeans doing it. Many of the tilers I know are Malaysians and Chinese.

    On good months, I paid my tiler 15-20k (that’s equivalent to a CEO’s salary of a medium size MNC). That’s just projects from my company. He does projects for other companies too.

    For any given masonry work, it’s the main contractor that provides the tiles, cement and other materials for the tiler’s usage.

    So basically the tiler has no other expenses except his tools of the trade and personal cost.

    It’s a wonder why this lucrative paying job is not taken up by Singaporeans. I guess sitting in an air-conditioned office earning $2-3k per month beats having dust and grimes on the face and clothes.
