A trip to Hardy home at Orang Asli village Busut Baru, Banting
On 29 December 2008,I went to Hardy home at Orang Asli village Busut Baru, Banting. I went there with my uncle Manan. I didn't even call or inform Hardy that I want to go to his home. "Nevermind.Just gamble," i'm whispering to myself.I'm afraid that Hardy might be working outstation today. Then went there ( at Banting ) and we took 1 and half hour trip before we arrive there.
Okay, before I continue with my trip to Hardy place, I want to introduce Hardy to you all. I never meet Hardy life in person before.We only meet at Temuan Webpage and via sms. Hardy was born in 11 July 1983 and now he's 26 years old. He studied diploma in Business Studies at UITM ( University Institute Technology Mara ). He's now working at Asyik FM as a DJ and before that he was working at KLIA Company Shopping Centre as a customer services. He's been a secretary JKK at Busut Baru village since 2007.Hardy had 4 siblings. He's hobby are surfing into the internet and he's also like to do sound and video editing. He's purpose of life are to serve his parent, to serve his village, to serve for all the Orang Asli community especially the Temuan.
When we arrived at Banting, I and uncle Manan were lost and we nearly goes to Dengkil.Luckly Kujal were at his village and I called him regarding that I was lost at Banting. Kujal told me that his village at Bukit Cheeding, Banting. For all of your information, Busut Baru village were llocated nearby Kujal village ( Pulau Kempas, Bukit Cheeding). I dont directly went to Hardy places after that .I went to Kujal home first.
When I and uncle Manan arrived at Kujal home, we found that he's house full of guest. Maybe their all are making for preperation to celebrate Aii Gayak Muyang ( Ancestor Day ) tomorrow. We took lunch at Kujal home.We been served by Kujal mom.Thank you very much to Kujal mom.We eat such delicious meal.But uncle Manan were a little bit shy, so he eat a little bit.
After the meal I'm having conversation with Kujal.Then after that at 4 pm I, Kujal and uncle Manan went to Hardy house at Busut Baru. Hardy village and Kujal village were not very far. On our way to Hardy home we took a stop at Kujal village community hall to see the preparation in celebrating Aik Gayak Muyang tommorow. It's been all of Kujal villager were helping each other in order to making the preparation for tommorrow.This is the spirit of Aik Gayak Muyang celebration.
After taking a look there, we continued our journey to Hardy's home.Whe we arrived at Busut Baru village we were lost and we couldn't find Hardy home."Sorry, It's been a while that I never been to Hardy home," said Kujal.
Luckly I have Hardy's mobile phone number. Look's like that Hardy hanging around with his nephew house. This is the first time that I met Hardy life in person. Hardy invited us to visit his house nearby from his nephew home. In his house Hardy want to show us a video that he been making, but sadly we couldn't watch the video just because his pc had problem.
So Hardy invite us to visit Busut Baru Batin home.Batin at Busut Baru named Batin Sari and his wife name inak Aslin.
As we all gathered there, we talked about Busut Baru village.I'm starting asking more information about Busut Baru to Hardy.Most of the villager here are working at their own oil-palm estate.Look's like Busut Baru villager are united.Their have their own JKK or community care department that been taking care for all the Busut Baru people welfare. A lot villager of Busut Baru were depend on JKK including making loan, doing marriage ceremony and other thing that JKK can help.Even JKK at Busut Baru village have their own lorry to pick up oil-palm from the villager.
Hardy also said that JKK here have three account has been created benefiting the people of Busut Baru.First account is Burial Account that been used to donated to the burial purpose. The secong account is for JKK management fee and the third account is for the JKK lorry ( buying oil and maintanance ).There's been 400 villager at Busut Baru and there's a lot of them sucessful studied into local university.
Hardy add that this Busut Baru is the second home of them. The first home named Busut village has been developed by the goverment to make KLIA ( Kuala Lumpur International Airport )airport. So this second village named Busut Baru means "New Busut" . "Still I can see my home site at KLIA", Hardy said to me.
When were talking and talking we didin't notice that the time has passed away the clock are showing us that it was 6 pm.Uncle Manan giving me the signal that we have to go home because he was afraid we'll get home late.After saying goodbye to Hardy and the others we went home using the different way.We use KLIA highway to go home.This way were showed by Kujal.We reach home 6.45 pm.
