Current Issue: Boycott oh boycott (my 2 cents)
Salam All
Hows your week so far?? hope you guys having a fab week at the office..
Maklum lah dah 2nd week Aidilfitri mesti ramai dah back to work kan..
and back to makan..
To those yang terrer puasa 6.. congrats k.. i myself wondering when im gona start..
Raya tinggal lg 2 weeks ni.. Open house makin full day je on weekends..
Anyways with Boycott thing against Israel products goin viral on social media..
i suppose i'd like to give my 2 cents on this issue too. (bukan ape... sharing is caring kann)
With so many views and feedbacks regarding this thing, i suppose its DEFINITELY NO HARM if we would like to join the boycotting too.
But pls remember, boycott pon ade adab tata tertib nye. jangan sesuka boycott or just believe 100% all these media. If you actually dig deeper on the boycott issue info, you'd be surprised to read that not 100% of these companies give their full proceeds / sales / or even a portion to Israelis!!
Serious.. some hanya nama je franchise.. and some are already own/purchased by these middle man/sellers / chain stores. So.. tolong boycott secara berhemah.
So people, kalau nak kata we all not consumers of these brands, i would say its a lie cos our whole lives revolves around these products.. Its quite hard actually if nak pin down one by one. But i figure the only smart way to boycott is to do whichever way you can to STOP consuming and purchasing and FOCUS ON GIVING the needy ones such as the GAZA people. Yes people. let's do our part together geder..
Below is the list of items i have gotten from the net:
Bile i read the list, terkedu pon ade cos im quite a consumer for all these many many things..
Think about it - kaya jugak si Israelis cos dah bertapak in our lives for decades and succeed in making us consuming their products in our day to day use..
Just imagine from kopi to makan to makeup to desserts to entertainment.. it has all Israel's product written all over it. Klau nak tau.. WHATSAPP for founded / created by them cuma recently purchased by Google. and for all you know its HQ & operation still there! So jangan taksub sangat nak negative.. cos the truth is memang our day to day consumption depends on these things!
So the best thing we CAN do at the moment, is stop worrying about this boycott problem and slowly withdraw guna mane mane barang yg bole stop guna. Kinda hard kannn...
Below are steps to boycott secara tata tertib:
1. BOYCOTT BARANG MEANS jangan beli, jangan guna, jangan tengok or jangan jeling.
but do so if you found a good alternative to your item. janganla sebab excited nak boycott sampai diri tergadai.. anak2 tak makan.. huhu
klau dah boycott tu diam diam jela tak payah nak gi buat demo ke bertempik sana sini or
attack those yang keje in these companies. (cuba you become the one yelled at baru tau)
Worst scenario ... like it happened in MCD Dungun. ke bodoh nama nya gi attack the workers and the kedai. I dont remember boycott or islam includes being violent!! So sape yang ajar?
2. BOYCOTT BERPADA PADA
Just because we consumed mostly alot items diatas takkan semua nak quit consume?
so boycott berpada pada on whichever level you mampu. Gile la nak quit using semua too.. so means after this NO FACEBOOK, NO WHATSAPP, NO PC, NO HP.. ANDA ADA BERAN? (mcm nak duduk jadi cave man jee)
3. TAK SEMUA BARANG BOYCOTT CONTRIBUTES 100% KAT ISRAEL
Ni nama nya kene research brand brand di atas or we end up meng-aniaya sesama kaum...
True they were founded in Israel, or franchised from there.. but the contents halal and they were already purchased / bought at the first place.
Meh i bagi example: You are a store owner of kedai runcit. Your barang consists of Kit kat to rootbir to coke to colgate to oreos. YOU DAH BELI IN BULK 3 MONTHS AGO.. true war happened. but this is your periuk nasi kan?
Klau org boycott u and serang u, tak ke you mengamuk?
So please think in other's shoes before you boycott melulu ok?
4. BOYCOTT SMART!
Nak boycott tapi menyusahkan orang lain bukan akhlak kita.
Islam or religion lain tak ajar sume ni.
So to those yang nak amik kesempatan nak buat ganas, pls sedar diri that you are acting like a monkey yang terlepas dari zoo. Serious.. tak caya amik cermin!
Klau nak boycott, be smart.
Find out more info on them. and read more about their origins or whatever they from.
Jangan nak percaya 100%. In this world of social media, not everything you see is believable or trustworthy. DO YOUR PART AND BE SMART
Sebab tu Israelis boleh tulis "you are welcome to boycott us" cos itu sume tactic negative nak distract us from helping / donating those who needs.
5. FOCUS ON DONATING / HELPING.
Shift the angry energy to positive. Helping is more subtle. is more the right way not marah marah or menengking.
True.. they started the war, they tindas our kind.. but Islam tak ajar kita balas cara yang sama. Then we'd be the same like them.
*Remember when Nabi Muhammad SAW kene baling najis masa dia pray?
Dia nye kesabaran tak marah... dia relax je..
Pastu org yg baling najis sakit, Nabi bole siap gi visit dia. (err i tak sure if we can do the same if it were us kann??)
Subhanallah. orang tu terus masuk islam & minta maaf.
Walaupun Kita tak sebaik or se pure nabi. but we can begin to learn to act like him.
after all Hadith dan sunnah nabi dah gesa kita umat dia ikut dia.
so why arent we following his footsteps?
so dear umat Muhammad..take a deep breath and lets unite to help.
6. DO YOUR PART
Walaupun its just a doa .. its just a lil small donation, trust me it helps.
Kanak2 & org yg sakit kt GAZA tgh tunggu our help. So quit wasting our energy blaming / cursing / doing these demos.
DO your part by helping in the distributing ke.. supplies ke anything yang related.
Klau tak nak help; then donate or share the donation channels. do your part as human.
By doing so we proven kat Israelis ni we are more united than they expected. (ISLAM IS ALL ABOUT KINDNESS AND HUMANITY)
Show them the true Islam people (umat Muhammad). Tak perlu nak jadi aggressive.
Dear celebrities, tak perlulah add fuel to fire.
Today i read celebs trying to burn their fans spirit with negativity. Cukuplah.
I know its easier to be negative than positive.. but let me tell you the end result..
negative things CONSUME your soul. keep making you DARK and SUSAH dapat hidayah.
Hidup tak blessed memang NOT WORTHY.
so before you judge or be negative, think if its worth your soul.
Tu,,, malaikat kiri you tgh catit every time you think negative... (grr)
7. GIVE TO THE RIGHT DONATION CHANNELS
Memang now ramai yang tampil nak offer bagi kat sana.. baik corporations, individual parties or companies.. So please do your part and research them well.
Cari mereka yang betul2 hantar duit, medical supplies & food. Make sure they do so cos we dont want our donation go into the wrong pockets. (sedih je klau ade irresponsible pihak yang nak makan duit duit ni..)
be aware of the individuals too. tak semua yang genuine. People branded Malaysians as generous & kind people.. but make sure we are giving those who truly need it.
Klau nak tau a few good organisations,. i found VIVA Palestine, Mercy etc..
Klau tak puas hati RESEARCH. FIND OUT.
8. JUST BECOS WE DONT JOIN DEMOS DOESNT MEAN WE DONT SUPPORT HELPING GAZA
tak faham i cos rata2 malaysians suke buat angry demo or kumpul to tunjuk perasaan.
Yes.. demo helps to show your voice. it helps to show us united. it sure helps in social life too. and media. and bla bla.
Im sure each one of us got different interpretation of demo-ing...
But doesnt mean those yang tak join doesnt help the need. we all help whichever way we
try we can.
Some of us memang taknak kumpul tengah panas and waste time. Some of us prefer family qt and do our solat in peace (tak skip zuhur or asar or maghrib
Some of us value our time.. so before you point finger cos she doesnt join the demo rally,
you ask yourself 'HOW IS THIS GONA HELP GAZA?"
If you think by yelling in anger helps, go ahead. but to others like me.. i find it childish and not appropriate and we help in our very own subtle way. SO QUIT JUDGING!
So there... my 2cents worth of this boycott issue.
Please have a thought about it and lets unite help the need.
Happy working loves!
Love, Ms Dreamyz
