The Golden Eggs
Long time ago, a remote village in central China was inhabited mainly with farmers and hunters. One
day, a farmer lost his entire livestock to flood. He prayed hard to God for help, otherwise his family
would die of starvation.
Few days, an old man with grey beard, passed by his house took pity on him. He gave him a goose
and said, “I don’t have any expensive thing to give you and I hope this goose will help you to ease your
hardship.”
A week later to his utmost surprise, the farmer found an egg in his yard. This was not ordinary egg. It
was a golden egg. He was suddenly overcome with joy.
Thereafter, his livelihood had rapidly improved but the farmer had forgotten his earlier hardship. He
became lazy, arrogant and spendthrift.
Strangely, the goose only laid one golden egg every six months. The greedy farmer lost his patience

Though, he regretted very much for his foolishness, it’s already too late.

My Rush Time as a Journalist
I usually woke up at eight o'clock a.m. and went to the Press Center to check the daily schedule of
briefings and press conferences. It was usually held by the United Nation officials or disaster mitigation
team.
It was challenging to visit different refugee camps to find such stories, human interest stories. After that I
went back to the Press Center to cover the press conferences of the day.
It was heart breaking when I saw these survivors fight for food and secondhand clothing. Unfortunately as
they said, the food and clothing were limited and inadequate. Emerging to glaring, fool noon, it was time
to go back to Press Center to write stories and race against time. I was always fearing that the internet
would come crushing down.
After everything was done, only then I remembered to eat. Most times, I only ate once a day because I

Malaysian Women Suggested to Carry Condoms
Malaysian Deputy Health Ministry urged every woman to carry a condom to protect against HIV, a
news report said.“This is not to debate them but to protect them. Women are the first ones to get exploited
by their partners (whom are infected by HIV-positive)” Abdul Latiff Ahmad was quoted as saying by
Sunday Star Newspaper. “But this just a suggestion, it’s up to them”.
Abdul Latiff made remark to coincide with the International Aids Memorial day, which was
celebrated openly for the first time in Malaysia, in bid to reduce stigma for HIV-victim. In the past the
event was held behind closed door.
Last year, 745 Malaysian women were identified as HIV-positive and 193 were diagnosed with
AIDS, he said in the report. Officials have said nearly 81000 Malaysian have been infected with HIV, less
then 10 percent are woman, but the number is steadily rising.
Malaysian Aids Council president, Adeebah Kamarulzaman, was quoted as saying besides sex
workers, many women who contract HIV are housewives, were infected unknowingly by their husbands.
“It’s not that people don’t know that condoms can protect them. But there are some men who don’t care
to take precaution, even though they know they have HIV” she said.

The people of Sumenep are very nice, because of the culture influences of Javanese and
Sumenep Royal Palace.
In this regency we can visit some tourism objects; one of them is Lombang Beach. Lombang
beach is a beach with sand white to spread out. We can find shrimp spruce-fir trees along the
beach. It is the only beach in Indonesia where shrimp spruce-fir trees grow well. It is an ancient
tree. Except that, we can find a unique habit. It is karapan sapi (cow race).
The cooked food in Sumenep regency is very tasteful; one of them is Soto Sumenep or Soto
Sabreng. Soto Sabreng was served with a packed of rice and a boil cassava. In this soto we can find
meat of cow, taiga, sharp-spice peanut, and a piguant gland sauce.
