MCO 3.0 - Day 16 (EMCO Day 04)

 25 May 2021     Day 16 of Movement Control Order 3.0

                             Day 04 of Enhanced Movement Control Order

        When our Health Director-General, Tan Sri Dr. Noor Hisham Abdullah called on Malaysians to prepare for the worst in his official Twitter account, it reminded me of what doctors usually tell the relatives of a patient who have little chances of surviving. Dr. Noor Hisham's rather morbid urge, which can hopefully stir stubborn Malaysians from their slumber and do their part in helping to break the chain of infection, came about because our country is facing an exponential trend in the Covid-19 graph. And true enough, it has been announced that we have another 7289 new Covid-19 cases today. It doesn't take much to imagine what our battered Malaysian healthcare system is grappling with, having to face so many new cases every day!

        Hubby had another tiring day at work, and I'm so glad that I did not just dig out from the freezer one of those easy-peasy ready-to-eat meals like Ah Khay's braised pork belly with yam. In spite of being tired myself after 8 periods of online classes and an entire afternoon wasted trying in vain to key in the reports of the online classes, I cooked hubby's favourite Stir-fried Roast Pork (爆烧肉) and a simple Hairy Gourd Soup. When hubby tucked into the meal with gusto and proclaimed, "Oooh! This is nice!", the labour was all worth it.
