That's why I am not one of the 854.
"Oh, gee, stop being sarcastic", Hubby started to get irritated with my endless jab at our first spaceflyer.
"We know we need someone from Malaysia to be an astronaut". He added oh-so-no-sarcastically.
This household was excited at the thought of having a Malaysia exploring the space.But the excitement stops there. But I bet the rest of the Malaysians find the privilege of having our first astronaut great and memorable. Well, JAKIM for starters, produced a booklet on how to pray in outerspace, relishing in the fact that a Malaysian Muslim made it to the space. I bet right now, toy companies even Matel Inc. would love to mass produce batu seremban and gasings with a fresh caution on the packaging-"May also be played by qualified astronauts ONLY".
The eloquent English speaking kids from SK Bukit Damansara who were interviewed by TV3 last night could still be talking non-stop about their experience chatting live with our spaceflyer via televideo conferencing with their eloquent English speaking parents.

'What's wrong with that?" My hubby asked again. Well, nothing wrong about that but I bet Malay speaking kids studying at SK Sabak Bernam may come up with similar answers as the SK Bukit Damansara kids, if not as eloquent.
There's a reason for public (some) to jockingly call our first spaceflyer a space tourist.
Well, I will give our Syed some "muka" and call him an astronaut.
Wonder if he could see Putrajaya from up there as clear as the great wall of China.
