World Press Photo of The Year - Spot News: 1st prize stories

The Assassination of Benazir Bhutto
Rawalpindi, Pakistan, 27 December 2007

"I turned on my flash, but just before resetting the lens, I turned and glanced back at her car.

Just then I heard three shots, which sounded as if they were fired from close to her car. I watched her drop down through the sunroof, and I raised my camera, my finger pressed down on the shutter release.

Just as the camera came up in front of my face, the bomb went off.

The suicide bomber had set off his charge behind her car. My camera caught the blast itself and the horrible debris it spewed into the air: pieces of car, chunks of cement, human flesh. The boom was deafening, but her car - and the bodies of her supporters - shielded me from the force of the blast. I was about 20 yards from the explosion, maybe less.

The bomb triggered an immediate stampede of survivors and I was momentarily swept up in the exodus. I shot a blur of people as I too got pushed back in the wave of panic...."

Message Send

Aku tau dia reply message aku sekadar nak being polite aje. Tak lebih, tak kurang (harap dia? jgn buang masa..sampai tahun depan pon belom tentu lagi inbox tu akan berisi). Tapi pesal ntah, itu jek dah cukup untuk aku terus rela menipu diri sendirik dan senyum sambil cakap; ahh...masih ade cahaya di hujung terowong gelap!

Reality check - cahaya di hujung terowong gelap tu datang dari kepala koc KTM Senandung Malam ke Singapura.

Buku layan: Support beb, support

Kasut Biru Rubina: Koleksi Fiksyen Pop Untuk Jiwa2 Hadhari
adalah sebuah himpunan cerpen pop berbahasa Melayu. Diilhamkan dari konsep sastera pakaibuang (disposable literature) yang dipelopori penulis Yahudi kelahiran Vienna, Hermann Broch, ia diharap dapat menghiburkan pembaca dalam beberapa waktu mereka terperangkap di latar urban ini (misalnya ketika di dalam elarti, tatkala menunggu awek/balak, sewaktu menanti azan sebelum berbuka atau menunaikan solat dsb). Selepas dibaca ia bolehlah dibuang atau lebih afdal lagi didermakan kepada mereka yang dahagakan bahan bacaan tapi tak mahu terjerumus dalam pembacaan remeh seperti membaca tanda jalan, kotak konflek, notis dari jawatankuasa kampung, majalah mangga, atau surat pemberhentian kerja.

A woman wakes up without her body. A boy tries to endure the pain of being an adult when mini animals start to come out of his anus. What do you do when angels forgot to bring a unicorn for your daughter's birthday? And are all shoes evil or just the blue ones?

Many of the characters in Kasut Biru Rubina want to live ordinary lives. But the unexpected happen. Brief, shocking, and full of lies that can only come from the twisted mind of Nigerian scammers, Sufian Abas' stories are snapshots that illuminate the strange hidden in a world we never want to live in.

Things happened for a reason, slalu org ckp.
