Gaji

Tengah dengar radio ni, ada cerita dari pendengar tentang gaji. Mendengar cerita mereka, terasa sangat yang........ "Mokcik ni kayo gak yo..."

Rasa macam tak cukup je gaji saya sekarang tapi sebenarnya lagi ramai yang laaaaagi tak cukup. Teringat masa kecik-kecik dulu. Masa tu gaji abah cuma RM450 sebulan. Mak ambil upah jahit baju (masa tu, sepasang baju kurung RM15 rasanya). Tapi kami adik-beradik masih cukup makan pakai. Iyalah, kami tak ada kereta, tak ada motosikal. Yang ada cuma bas dan basikal... Pergi sekolah jalan kaki. Rumah disediakan gomen - cuma ada satu bilik tidur yang agak besar, satu ruang dapur dan ruang tamu. Bilik air kat luar.

Bila difikir balik, banyak yang kami tak ada (atau lebih tepat, tak mampu kami miliki). Kebanyakan perabot kami, abah buat sendiri. Meja belajar, almari tv, rak kasut, almari dapur - semua tu abah yang buat sendiri. Memasak guna dapur minyak tanah yang amat-amatlah tidak efficient (it takes longer to cook using this stove compared to gas stove). Kami tak ada telefon. Mesin basuh jangan haraplah. And we don't go for holidays. Holidays mean pergi rumah tok kat kampung atau pergi rumah pakcik kat Langkawi. Cuma masa tu, tak terasa pula kekurangan.

Kemudian, abah pencen dan kami pindah dari situ. Abah dapat beli tanah di kawasan kampung, dan buat rumah sendiri. Kecik saja rumahnya - kalau berdiri di jalan depan rumah, boleh nampak jalan kat belakang rumah melalui tingkap. Masa tu, pencen abah dah tinggal lebih kurang RM250. Mak terus menjahit. Masa ni upah jahit baju kurung dah naik ke RM18. Saya dan adik masih di sekolah menengah. Still no telephone and I used to be left out whenever friends met - they couldn't contact me and I was staying far away from town. And during those time also, the tv broke down and we couldn't afford to buy a new one.

Tak tahulah macam mana kami survive... but we made it.

Saya masuk matrikulasi IPTA. Alhamdullillah. Masa tu saya dapat biasiswa Kementerian Pelajaran. Lagipun yuran taklah mahal sangat. Masa lanjutkan pelajaran ke peringkat ijazah, masih ada lagi baki biasiswa yang saya guna untuk bayar yuran permulaan, sebelum dapat pinjaman JPA.

Kali pertama dapat pinjaman, RM3000 rasanya... (I've repaid the loan by now). Wah, sukanya hati. Perkara pertama yang saya beli - dapur gas untuk mak dan abah kat kampung. Since then, I've become almost financially independent.

Looking back, it is no wonder that I do not really need much. We make do with what ever that we have. I still do not have a washing machine (tapi mak dah ada mesin basuh kat rumah), no sofa at my place here in Melaka, and I am still using a six year old handphone. Ada seorang kawan yang tiap kali datang rumah saya, mesti dia komen - you are so sempoi.

Well... yes I am.
