بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيم
Assalamualaikum & Hi! 😃
The moment when I updated the previous entry of this blog, I made a promise to myself that I will keep this blog updated with at least one (1) entry every month. However, I broke my own word when I didn't update any single entry for the month of February 2020. This is for no one but only for myself, though, it's still hurtful that I broke the promise to myself. 😭 I remember like few days before February ended, I realised that I have yet updated this blog so I planned to do so on 29th as it's a rare date which only comes on every 4 years of leap but still, I didn't make it happen. Therefore, there won't be any history for 29 February 2020 and after all (to console myself sobs sobs),
We're human beings and we sometimes forget..
Anyway, it has been 3 months since the arrival of the new decade 2020. Looking at how the time flies so fast, day by day; time left us so fast and with or without our smiles, the new days will still comes eventually. We can also say that time flies, whether you’re wasting it or not. Masha Allah.. Huhu. My first quarter of 2020 is already full with ups and downs in my life; what is life without any test isn't it? I'm sure that things have been topsy-turvy not only for me here but the same goes for most of us around the world right now.. 😓
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)
The news about Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak brought the shock to the world when it was first discovered in Wuhan, China. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the outbreak to be a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 30 January 2020 and recognized it as a pandemic on 11 March 2020. COVID-19 was first identified to have spread to Malaysia on 25 January 2020. Up until the moment I'm typing this entry, 2,626 positive cases with 479 recovered and 37 deaths were recorded in our country Malaysia. Within 2 months, the trends have been massively increasing due to some factors and that's why we're all required to quarantine ourselves in own house with the Movement Control Order (MCO) which has been implemented commencing 18 March 2020 for 2 weeks. On 25 March, our Prime Minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin through a live national telecast announced that the control order is extended till 14 April 2020.

Initially, I have never thought that the situation will go to this far. It's getting worse yet unpredictable day by day when there are new cases reported everyday including deaths until they decided to proceed with the hardest decision they ever made; by implementing the Movement Control Order (MCO). Of course, bila cakap fasal MCO ni rasa kesian sangat bila fikir akan orang-orang yang cari rezeki dengan berniaga, makcik & pakcik tua, orang susah yang hidup bergantung dengan pendapatan harian yang tak menentu & semua orang yang dalam kesusahan. Orang gelandangan pun sama. Kesian sangat-sangat. Semoga Allah pelihara mereka semua, kurniakan rezeki tanpa henti buat mereka.. Aamiin ya Rabb.
Came to this far, Alhamdulillah I'm very impressed with the way our Malaysia Government is handling the situation. They came out with daily updates and press statements to keep us updated with the current ongoing situation. Other than that, there are tremendous efforts being done by the Government in making sure that rakyat won't be suffering throughout the hard time that we're all currently facing. My utmost respect to all the people who have been there working hard serving for our nation's safety. Those people working in the Ministry of Health for government or even the private healthcare line, be it the front liners; doctors, medical assistants, nurses & all parties who got involved are like our guardian angels. May Allah give them ultimate strength & keep them safe from any harm.. 💖
As an individual, we need to be responsible & have faith. The sun will rise soon. It's always the darkest hour before the dawn. Our faith have to be greater than our fear to this COVID-19. After all that happened, we should have learned that life is so fragile and precious. The end for us may come anytime, and only Allah knows. So let’s go after life, try to handle it well, not take it for granted. Smile more, work hard, give life our all, pray for the best. And love much, love and be loved in return. Do your part, STAY AT HOME! It's actually one effortless way to spend your precious time with beloved family during the current situation that is happening. Look at how much time we have now to spend with our loved ones; our family, our spouse, our children our parents & our siblings. All this while, did we take time for granted? Are we so attached to the worldly life? I guess this is the best time for us to do some reflection. Ingat senang ke nak dapat duduk rumah sebulan tak payah keluar hadap traffic jam pergi office? Yes of course we still have to work from home but it's okay anyway we're less busy than usual isn't it? Hehe. All in all, may Allah bless & protect our country Malaysia. Semoga COVID-19 ini akan cepat berakhir & at the end of the day, semoga Allah ampunkan dosa kita, permudahkan segala urusan kita, limpahkan rezeki yang berterusan, pulihkan yang terjejas serta beri ketabahan kepada semua. Aamiin aamiin ya Rabb!
P/s: Panjang juga I menulis macam biasa yaa. Punya lama tangguh publish entry ni. I will definitely be back for an update soon! 😘 Take care, stay safe & stay at home everyone! Lailaha illa anta, subhanaka, inni kuntu minaz zalimin.. 🌸
