the losses suffered in flooding

 

Those who are in bad shape

The losses suffered in the recent flooding

They shouldn't cry in despair

They knew the situation before


We can lose everything under the sun

We can't be losing our mandated pension fund

When we grow old do we cry loudly again?

Why we have so low in our saving?


I lived in village

Many years ago flooding came

It was a surprise because we didn't see it coming

The water crawled up to 4 feet as the rain came


My mother didn't cry

We didn't cry too

Because we lived at the bottom

We faced our hardship in life


Now these crying babies

They should buckle up and fight

Clean up the debris find ways to survive

But don't touch the old saving fund


There are so many NGOs now

These people should ask them for help

Raiding the EPF to get the funding

It will be a long term losing game
