This friend's sister went to New Zealand to further her studies. The family wasn't that rich as both father and mother were selling 'kueh" in Sibu back then. Not long after she left, there was a offer letter from one of the teachers' training colleges. So the family at first did not know what to do. Later, they decided to send a telegram with a message something like this: "Please come back quickly". the sister upon receiving the telegram was panic and thought one of her parents passed away. The message was not clear. So, she packed her bag and headed for home. When she reached home, she was disappointed because it was not her parent demise. She have to give up studying for a uni degree and take up a teacher certificate course in sarawak. To this day, she is still a teacher. The moral of the story is "message must be made clear".Gaharumanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02158719417815828020noreply@blogger.com
