Perhaps at the periphery of Chinese society they could have certain views about the sufferings resulting from opium smoking?<br />I am inclined to think that my grand uncle was a kind of guy who fell apart because of the love of his life. And most people around him were too busy expecting everyone to be tough.<br /><br />Robert Kiyosaki have written "Different people learn in different ways". <br /><br />Thanks for visiting.Ensuraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05201156760287157665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4765555411888082127.post-91168783607290250992010-02-25T00:56:58.866+08:002010-02-25T00:56:58.866+08:00another interesting story.another interesting story.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17907062140533347980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4765555411888082127.post-16526829032894671922010-02-24T22:00:56.771+08:002010-02-24T22:00:56.771+08:00Hi Ah Ngao

People somehow were more tolerant then I feel.<br />I have to get a photo of the "opium" box.<br /><br />And also the official statement/document on the usage of opium in those days....Any photo of opium den in Sarikei?<br /><br />I just hope that people will not feel ashamed of their elders who were taking opium....it should be considered a medicinal cure at that time.Ensuraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05201156760287157665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4765555411888082127.post-70609309719718666552010-02-24T20:20:55.236+08:002010-02-24T20:20:55.236+08:00Opium was widely used in the old days.
