MARKUS NG CHUNG YAU: IN MEMORIAM

By the time I’m writing dis, U had set the path 2 heaven meeting Lord Almighty. How sad and despair I am, from now n onwards, asignofthecreator has lost one of its sincere & kind-hearted reader. No words could exactly express, how loss I am in dis world without U. U probably regarded me as a normal fren, juz like others known by U. but, upon listening 2 ur advice, ur guidance, u were not a mere person 2 me. U av placed urself into a special room in me heart, unreachable by many, sealed and tightly kept, as long as it beats and breathes.


I still can remember those gud-ol-days’ memoirs we av spent through. I am forever in debt 2 UK particularly UKEC, 4 meeting us back few years. Da days in Kalsom 13th, and MSLS have given me more time 2 understand U as a gift from God, a treasure for Malaysia in near future. U av taught me on how 2 b a responsible citizen, 2 eliminate da racial barriers between us n see us as only 1 race – da one and only BANGSA MALAYSIA. More than dat, U’ve ignited some hopes in me, although in darkness sphere, dat Malaysia and its Malaysians will change and lead 2 a better state, where equality – mutual understanding – love and respect r being part of our belief and faith.


I still remember how beauty it was, 2 meet u n enjoyed our ‘Nasi Daun Pisang’ i.e. an Indian Cuisine. Just imagine, a Malay meets his Chinese mate, having dinner at an Indian Restaurant. Indeed, dis is da future Malaysia dat we desire 2 c, @ least b4 we close our eyes eternally. But u left b4 seeing dis. U r gone b4 da nation building is completed. I wonder whether I cud find another fren, juz like U. I doubt whether I cud meet another spirit juz like urs. I dunno as 2 whether I cud c a future state-man like U. Above all, wud I be able 2 av a fren, a listener, an advice, a source of hope n faith, a brother, a good Malaysian juz like U.


I profusely ask Almighty Lord, wat av U done wrong in life? Why do U av 2 leave us when we really need U? Y do u av 2 go away while ur presence is so much felt n needed? Why r u disappearing while u av so many things 2 do and u can do 4 da nation? Regardless of dis, im still searching 4 an answer. I know I dun av many best frens on earth. They r juz few n my fingers cud simply count em. But why is He taking one, while I dun av many? I’m loosing my best mate whom I hardly get, one of da very few I have.


WHY DEAR LORD?


As u r leaving us, I av learnt an important lesson in life – which I shud av realised long time ago. I shud & will cherish every 1 dat I love b4 its too late 2 do so. I will matter every single second tickled n will ensure none of em passed without expressing my love n remembrance. We all human will eventually leave dis mortal earth 2 da next life hereafter. Every second, we r dying. Every minute passed, bringing us closer 2 death. Every hour spent, we r approaching it. It is juz a matter of time. I dunno mine neither da others but all I know, while Im still alive, I will make my life 2 a blast n love those who love me.


I am sending u wif best wishes, wif everlasting remembrance as we’ll b physically apart. Ur body will b around no more, but ur spirits n teachings will always b wif us, guiding us through n guarding us 4ever – till a better world has come. Ur legacy will be fondly cherished, ur struggle wil b always remembered n continued. Goodbye dear friend, although dis isn’t a farewell, cuz ur presence will always b felt until we finally join u.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF MARKUS NG CHUNG YAU
6TH MAY 1985 – 4TH FEBRUARY 2009.
