SIPITANG, Jan 1, 2012: A Sipitang housewife, Rose Kalsum Zainal (left) from Kg Mesapol Lama finds life has been miserable for the last 46 years having to live without a Malaysia Identity Card. She is no less than a foreigner, even foreigners many of them are luckier than her got Mykads as soon as they arrived in this country in particular Sabah, she said.

Rose Kalsum had applied twice to get Malaysian IC, first was in 1978 in Kota Kinabalu (proof of photocopied documents supplied) but since the IC wasn’t forthcoming, she then re-applied by registering at the National Registration Department in Sipitang District office in 1990, Ever since she has been checking with the NRD every few months, the last time she went to check with NRD Sipitang was September last year where she was given the same response by the officer that her record of application was untraceable and not found in the system.

Happy New Year 2012

I've learned.... That having a child fall asleep in your arms is one of the most peaceful feeling in the world.
