Yes... bubur lambok is a traditional dish that most people make during Ramadhan al Mubarak... Rice congee cooked and mixed with spices, prawns, meat or chicken... nyum nyum.. yummy...
But why cook it during Ramadhan? Who would judge it right away? People are fasting..Who is going to taste it? Hellooooo... Aaahhh yes.. because it is bubur lambok, a dish that is only cooked during Ramadhan... I see...
Yes... there are women who can't fast during this holy month and they can taste it, but do we need to expose her just because she can drink and eat during the day, unlike others who have to fast until dusk... It is still a stigma, eventhough it is known that women "on leave" from prayers every month can't fast during that time, but eating openly in front of fasting people is considered rude...
Yes... this competition is during office hours, class hours and yes the participants are mostly lecturers who have class today... Canceled the classes to join this competition and left the students browsing the campus as they pleased. They knew about this competition, but why they didn't bother to swap their teaching periods with other lecturers (who were not involved with the competition) so that the time can be used efficiently during the morning time. Everybody knows that teenagers study better in the morning, while their brains' are still fresh...
So... What is the outcome of the competition? What were the objectives of it? Does it benefit the students? Does it help the lecturer to improve their teaching abilities?
Yes... people may say that I'm being negative and anti social, but, please, I'm just thinking on this side.. the student's side... The time that was suppose to allocated for them was "bruised" by these kinds of "Social Affairs"... Is there no other time for it? Appropriate time? The weekends perhaps? Masya Allah... Laahaulawala...
