I met two Dato (Malays) and Tan Sri (Chinese) in the departure hall at KLIA. Very lucky they know me because of NGOs and academic activities.We are going to Kuching on my way to Pontianak. After long talking and we move to the plane. They were surprise when they ask my seat number after I said mine 12D. Dato asked me why you university dont pay you for the business class ka? one of the Tan Sri said if i bought my own ticket I will buy economy class but this time the govenment bought for me. I said we professors always fly economy class and sleep in the tent. Datin next to Dato smile.......
