Emirates Part 2

On the way back to Singapore of course I took another Emirates flight, then it was also full by all the TKI who's going to work in UAE.
When reaching Singapore, everybody had to go out from the plane, as there would be some cleaning to be done inside the plane, but yet, none of the Emirates staff spoke Indonesian, so one of the stewardes, spoke to them in English mixed with the sign language and body movement to ask them to remove the hand luggage, boarding pass, and passport as well...
But yet still a lots of them looked very confused, so moved to the front i politely told them in Indonesian of course to remove their belonging, boarding pass, and the most important thing is their passport. They looked at me with disbelief look in their eyes, and said they were told to come out in Colombo (may be it meant that they change the flight at Colombo), then I still talked to them patiently, because the plane needed to be clean, that's why they have to go out for a while and then later on came back again to same flight.
Thinking about it, i feel sorry for them, we can't choose to be bornt to certain family, but all has been determined by God.
I also learn to be thankful for whatever I am now, and for my family as well.
