How Ironic….!!! Tje Fuk lah…
Monday, July 9th, 2007This afternoon, I’ve experienced a very funny story… (babih lah orang2 kaya itu…)
Hmm.. this is the story:
It was at the lunch time, and I was on an operator’s Building to make project progress report. We were waiting for the lift to get down from the 7th floor…
After a while, the lift’s door was opened…and there were people crowded in the lift. We enter it, and…
….the scene was started….
There were about 9 person in that room including me… ::Because they’re from upper floor, I assumed that they’re bosses on this Operator company….::
I saw a man, he was busy with his gadget… and then a woman asked him…
Woman : "What are you doing?… are you transfer some money again…with it?"
Man : "hmm… nope.. it’s not as big as yesterday… just a little…now I just transfer about 15 million… "
….oit.. in my mind I was thinking, how much money had he transfered yesterday… so he could say…"it’s just 15 million…" (bah…15 juta??!! dikit…??)
and then the conversation… continue…
Woman : "hmm… with that money, I can buy 2 pairs of shoes…"
(in this moment, I started to shock… and curious about what they’re talking about…)
Man : "for me… I can buy 20 pairs of shoes…."
(wew….I started to afford some respect to this man… rather than the woman one..)
Woman : "Hah… are you kidding me? that’s so cheap… You must fix your appetite…" (I was more and more disgusted with this women… and you know what… my face was smiling sourly… and I wasn’t realize that…)
Man : "Nope…. surely I’m serious… this pair of shoes…(while he pointed on his feet) is just 700 thousands…"
Woman : "Wew… that’s so cheap… where did you buy it??"
Man : "Surely it’s cheap… I bought it when I went to China…"
(Duengggggg…..!!! dengan serta merta dan suksesnya… saia gondok dengan sangat… ternyata kekaguman saia tadi salah… T_T)
ehe… how can they said it’s cheap? 700 thousands?… Tje Fuk lah…
He bought it in china? so make it 5 Million (because round trip Ind-Chn is about 4.5 Million.. if I wasn’t mistaken…)
Suddenly…the door was opened… And I exit from the lift and..
finally… I could make a big smile in my face freely… while trying hard to figured out what’s going on several second before… in my mind… !.!
=====================================================================
Bandung…(10 hours from that occurrence…)
Now in this desk.. I keep my sour smile… and thinking about another side of this earth : "Poverty!!"
while… some of HUMAN…in this Jakarta… spend 15 Million just to buy 2 pairs of shoes??
HOW IRONIC!!!
