On knowledge sharing and dissemination

... when circulating a working paper for comments, never put on "citations only permitted with the permission of author"

or "no parts of this paper can be used without permission of author". Rather, say "when using parts of this paper please give proper citation and help yourself". Be delighted if someone wants to quote you ... (p.7)

Would a monkey be less of a monkey


بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم


Nice isn't it? Window seat with a view.

No it is not my room. I wish.


But 
I do have a corner room in our house in Kampung Ulu. Alhamdulillah.

The room is flanked by two windows on both the sides that can be opened just like the above. No iron grill. One can just jump in and out of the windows if one so wish.

We were in Kampung on Sunday, staying overnight. At night I closed the window but left the curtain drawn opened so that I could see the soothing night light and the moonlight beyond.

Right across the road up the slope, I could see the grey shadows of rubber trees.

In the morning I opened the windows wide. Then we went to Kuala Pilah to shop for Mother.

Meanwhile at home.

Brother-in-Law was in the living area. Suddenly he heard a commotion in the corner room. He rushed in to see. And lo and behold.

A family of monkeys were having a fanfare in the room. Jumping up and down on the bed.
Those were one amazing intruders.

Alhamdulillah. Brother-in-Law was quick. No mishap. Nothing was borrowed by the monkeys.
It was hilarious. 
But I was thankful that nothing was missing.

Would a monkey be less of a monkey if he is inside a house?

hehe.
