Is the race important?

The pain became severe. I went home from work a wee bit early today, coz i couldn't stand it anymore. After swallowed another pain killer, like yesterday i forced myself to sleep... to no avail.

I waited until 3 hours, when the pain still did not subsided I went to a private clinic.There r two private clinics nearby, one is owned by my neighbour the other is a chinese lady.

I did not know the vast parking lot near the block had turned into Ramadhan Bazaar. It was 4.30p.m. so the bazaar was in full swing, resulted I had to circle the block twice before could find a space to park my kereta-cap-ayam.Actually I double park n asked the pakcik in bright yellow t'shirt to look for my car because i really x-tahan-anymore.

The clinic wall is painted in bright colours, two receptionist, a chinese and an indian greeted me cordially..

The lady: Doctor x ada, pukul 7 baru dia masuk semula
Me : Tp sangat x tahan..
The lady: nak ubat apa yer, kalau perlu sangat...
Me : Kalau nak jap ada x org buat kan?
The lady: Yang itu kena doktor yang buat. Kita x tahu. Pergila klinik lagi satu..
Me : Tak mau.. nak jumpa doktor perempuan jugak..
The lady: Tapi doktor yg sana tu Islam...

Islam? Muslim?
Huh?
Seriously, when i choose eatery outlet, i go for muslim food, when looking for accommodation, either it is a muslim ownerships r not i prefer somewhere i confidence I could perform pray and when shopping for certain things i look up for halal label.

Seeing the doctor is dif. Maybe if it juz for runny nose, sore throat, flu r fever, i dont mind what gender the doctor is. But then when in involved something so embarrassing and required me to selak-selak (use ur imagination k) so if i could choose i want a woman to treat me, please...

race and religion is not an issue at all. afterall we r 1Malaysia.

Then, I drove to he hospital, n was treated by an Indian male doctor. Because in public hospital u could not be choosy. Thanx god all the selak-selak thingy was done by a nurse, aminnn...

I was given a medical leave for tomorrow. Hopefully ini la last saya sakit...
