Charleston
Few days ago, Dylann Roof shot and killed nine people inside the historical church in Charleston, South Carolina during a weekly Bible study meeting and opened fire around 9 p.m. Eight people were found shot to death at the scene, police said. Two others were transported to a hospital, where one later died. Roof was captured Thursday morning in Shelby, North Carolina. Dylann Roof was charged with nine counts of murder and one count possession of a firearm during the commission of a violent crime. All felony charges. Furthermore, The South Carolina and American flags fly at half-staff June 18, 2015 atop the statehouse in Columbia, South Carolina, in honor of the nine people killed in Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, as the Confederate flag flies at full-staff at the Confederate Monument. At the behest of South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, the statehouse flags will remain at half staff for nine days to honor the nine killed.
I feel that Dylann Roof is a dangerous man and action should be taken by the authorities to make sure these people don't go around killing other people. Imagine he killed family member of others and hours before the shooting, he sat together with them for a bible study meeting. Instead of shooing him away, they welcomed him with open arms. Furthermore, they forgave him after taking away lives of their loved ones. My heart goes out to the victims and their families.

Malaysia
Malaysia is a federal constitutional monarchy located in Southeast Asia. It consists of thirteen states and three federal territories. Malaysia is unique because of its diversity of races, religions and cultures. Malaysia has the 'Open House' concept where during the various cultural and religious festival like Hari Raya, Chinese New Year, Deepavali, Gawai Day and others, friends and families and even strangers would visit the homes of those who are celebrating the festival, to wish them well and enjoy the feast prepared by the hosts. Although the visitors may be from different races, they still can tolerate with each other and live under the same roof where they celebrate the festival together. This will help to strengthen the ties among themselves. Moreover, Malaysians live harmoniously in a country where there are no wars and conflicts among the citizens because war is dreadful and it may deteriorate humans' lives. We are fortunate that our country is safe and runs off the war. So, people can live safely here. On top of that, there are many interesting places to visit in Malaysia such as beaches, islands and rain forests. Malaysia's rainforest is considered as one of the oldest rain forests in the world. It has different species of flora and fauna living the rainforest waiting for you to discover. Furthermore, there are many islands in our country such as Pulau Langkawi, Pulau Redang, Pulau Ketam and many others. Pulau Langkawi has a lot of historitical informations. Those who are in favour of history can go there to explore the history of that place. All the beaches in those islands are beautiful. The sand is soft and white. The accommodation is well-established and that makes those islands ideal places to visit.
