(but got cut off the blog world at Ampang Putri) good to hear Pak Samad getting the award by his fellow journalists - Congratulations! I'm sure it means a lot to him; its like having a surgeon getting a recognition by other fellow surgeons... who else could have a better evaluation than the pros from the fraternity? Salam.

He really deserved it. Glad to know that the other person getting the award is Tan Sri Mazlan Nordin. Dua-dua my "fairy" God Fathers. Masa nak start working for them, ingatkan they would be my "fiery" God Fathers.<BR/><BR/>Who is going up to take the award??? Rasanya kena one-two-som (betul ke perkataan ni)between you and your sister, Kak Ton. Dua-dua journalists, kan? Atau pun tenguk CV, siapa yang telah dapat bertahan dekat NSTP lebih lama. Or may be get Nina to accept it. Dia terlepas banyak peluang untuk bersama Pak Samad masa kecil2 dulu.<BR/><BR/>Or apa kata, present the award to Pak Samad himself at home and then ask him to give a speech and tayangkan masa Award Night tu. May be Pak Samad boleh bagi amanat kepada journalists di Malaysia. Tapi rasanya dah kesuntukan masa, kan?<BR/><BR/>Tak kira le anak mana yang naik terima award tu, I envy you...

He would usually excuse himself and light up outside the hall, where he would spend a long time and invariably worry the hosts.Rockybruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187242806213153913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38530403.post-4729009297388001102008-01-09T01:38:00.000+08:002008-01-09T01:38:00.000+08:00Tahniah to your Bapak!Tahniah to your Bapak!Faten Rafiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09164085457322747101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38530403.post-15232797149512792512008-01-08T22:37:00.000+08:002008-01-08T22:37:00.000+08:00congratulation to Pak Samad.i wish i had a boss li...congratulation to Pak Samad.<BR/><BR/>i wish i had a boss like him.Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09847435152251276706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38530403.post-85241941525280039742008-01-08T17:22:00.000+08:002008-01-08T17:22:00.000+08:00Congratulations to both the 'awardee' and 'awarder...Congratulations to both the 'awardee' and 'awarder'!BaitiBadarudinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06255773362994807469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38530403.post-35261116618251523172008-01-08T16:14:00.000+08:002008-01-08T16:14:00.000+08:00You should go up there and accept the award on beh...You should go up there and accept the award on behalf of your dad, Ena. <BR/><BR/>You are known to probably all the members of the Former BH Journalists Association and you probably know all of them, too.<BR/><BR/>The award won't do anything to add to what Pak Samad is as a journalist, a writer, an editor. In fact, giving this award to Pak Samad should lift the standing of this association that was set up by the ex-BH guys. <BR/><BR/>I would like to thank the ex-BH guys for not forgetting the grand old man of Malaysian journalism. <BR/><BR/>Congratulations -- both to Pak Samad and the association.<BR/><BR/>p.s. I hope those guys who "stole" the Tokoh Wartawan Negara award form Pak Samad (by giving the same title to Zam the Info Minister) won't think of doing the same. There is no way -- I say it again: NO WAY -- you guys can try increase the height of a pygmy by giving him high heels or giving him a ladder.
