My Daughter Liyana off to Khidmat Negara (National Service)

Today my daughter, Liyana off to National Service in Sik, Kedah for 3 months. Earlier when she got the letter from Khidmat Negara, she reluctant to go. After a while, she eager to go. I wonder why? Something got to do with the Colt M16 gun training.....

Khidmat Negara (National Service) is one of the platform for Malaysian Government to inculcate the "Cinta Negara" (Love your country) and multi-cultural, multi-ethnic integration which is in line with the Prime Minister  1Malaysia Project.

As parent, I supported this program to the fullest. This move is vital to maintain harmonious nation and also improve human capital.

Just now, I sent her to the pick up point near Dewan Millenium in Kepala Batas. There were 4 buses awaits. All the NS trainee look sad and puzzled. My daughter Liyana, seems a bit nervous but I pretended not aware of it. She asked me, whether or not I feel sad because she's leaving. I replied, its felt like sending her off to the hostel for 3 months. Then she kissed my cheek goodbye, and I felt a bit sad after that.

Liyana-Good Luck, all the best. Off you go to National Service.
