MH370 FOUND?

The dusts seem to have settled about the missing Malaysian Airline MH370. We, the people, were unable to find it. The media have for long

refocused their valuable resources on more "important" things. This has raised some serious questions about the ability of mankind to sustain and control their products, to protect ourselves. It also raises the question about how much we are willing to invest when disaster strikes and how much trust people around the globe have in governments.

It's greatly appalling and disappointing that in this Google/Apple age we could not find that beautiful 777, nor could we find the 239 precious lives aboard it. What if they were inducted by aliens who would stop at nothing but taking every plane in the sky in similar manner? Was that effort all we got? What if it was the Air Force One? Would we fold our hands and watch the endless speculations about it in the news?...What precautions have we taken against future occurrence? Would we have handled it differently if the passengers were from a different region or from a particular country? What lesson about safety did manufacturers learn from the unfortunate incident? Are governments doing enough to earn the trust of the people?

While we may not have the answers to these questions, we sure did learn quite a bit from the ugly incident especially in safety. We sent a man to the moon in 1969 when the world was still an infant "technologywise". We can basically do anything we deem fit now if we put greed and selfishness out of the way.

 

 

THE 7  7 7

On the outside you look like a dolphin

But you are a blue whale herein

In the air you are a hummingbird

How could you fly your size so undeterred

Across the vast oceans with beautiful precision

Gliding through the sky with tons a million

From landing to take-off, you’re a sheer display of beauty

I look through the window, I am closer to the heavens than to the earth

Your wings spanning to the ends of the earth

Your tiny flashing lights, a great display of beauty

Is that the pilot serving cocktail

Yet we fly without derail

In speed so grave, yet engines without a wail

Am I in my sitting room?

No, I’m in my dining room

Do you really have it all?

Or am I just having a ball?
