Rustam Sani - The Teacher

Academician, writer and blogger Rustam A Sani passed away early this morning at his home in Kuala Lumpur.

He taught me when I was in university years ago. I last met him end of last year at a wedding dinner of the son of a mutual friend. He was a little surprised when I addressed him as "cikgu".

Well, once a teacher (lecturer) will be a teacher and he shall be treated and respected as one.

After the meeting I thought of dropping him a note via his blog Suara Rakyat but I never did. Now the only thing I can do is to pray for him to journey on peacefully. May all the good deeds he had done be well remembered by all.
