INdia 2

Food

Ahh.... tired of indian food liao. Initially, I love it.. but unlike Malaysian food, Indian food lack of varation. It is just the Masala and spices that give power to the food.
I miss char kuey teow,
I miss kai lan, kang kung, choy sum
I miss tofu
I miss asam laksa
I miss nasi lemak..

...

And News?

We were still waited for the CMC result anxiously.

CMC, (Christian Medical College) is unaided from the India government. It is supported by many organization around the world, mainly by the Christian organization. But this college is affliated to a India Government University.

By God's grace, and many of the selfless effort of the college faculty, the CMC became one of the best medical college in India. I heard that recently, it is pioneering bone marrow transplant.

CMC is all while independantly selecting its own recruiting candidate by the process of entrance examination and interview. The ultimate aim is to select candidate that willing to serve in mission field after graduating.

However the Tamil Nadu(the state in India) govt is not that happy about this way. They argue that CMC is affliated to the India Govt and the Govt should be given the right in selection of students to CMC. And hence for past many years ( i think 7 years) the Govt had been sueing CMC over this matter.

Fortunately, all the while CMC had been able and independently able to select their own students. But this year, this case had been appealed to the Supreme Court ( the Highest Court) and the court case is very fierce. CMC spends alots of money on one of Indian best lawyer.

If CMC lost the case, CMC lost the right to select their student and both Jiwan and I will peacefully come back home to Malaysia.

The court case is going on, and that is why I do not really know the result yet.

I am now still staying in Dr Roger's house waiting for the result. :)
