A Daily Conversation with Mus


Policeman : Is this Pak Mat Tempeh’s house?

Sudin : Not here Sir. He lives over there. (points to the opposing room)

Policeman : Thank you.

So far so good right. Simple question and answer.


(Policeman repeatedly knocks on the door. Yet no reply)

Sudin : Knock harder, Sir.


Policeman : Madam, are you Pak Mat Tempeh’s wife?

Mus : YES. HE HAS BEEN OUT TO COLLECT MONEY SINCE AFTERNOON.

Baik Mus. Nobody asks about what he did la but never mind.

Policeman : Ohhhh, alright. Madam, Pak Mat Tempeh has been admitted to the General Hospital. He’s been hit by a vehicle.

Mus : THAT’S VERY TYPICAL OF HIM. SOMETIMES, THEY DON’T PAY THE DEBT FOR 2 TO 3 MONTHS.

Kisurat la Mus. What the hell are you saying. Open up your ears and listen please.

Sudin : Madam, madam . He is here to tell you that Pak Mat… RRRRRRRR KELEPOP KECEPER PON PON PON… was run over by a car.

Mus : YOUR PAK MAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN LIKE THAT. HE ONLY CYCLES. HE’S NEVER BEEN IN A CAR.

Gasak kau la Mus. Berbual macam faham je. Buat kelakar sehh.

Sudin : (clearly peeved and so raises his voice) Pak Mat Tempeh has been hit by a car!!

Mus : HUHH?!!! (cries)

Ah padan muka kau.
