SERVE YOU RIGHT!
You wanted this for Malaysian's attention kan? If you got problems, this is not the way to solve it. Rambut blonde, lagak macam orang putih, tapi nak bunuh diri. Beb, aku pun budak hingusan yang bodoh, suka cakap nak bunuh diri macam orang tak berakal tapi tak sebodoh kau membelakangkan keluarga dan agama sampai nak suicide.
Adeh... what is gonna happen to our youngster nowadays? Credit to PDRM for charging her. For those who believe suicide will resolve everything , think again. It is on the wrong side of the law.
