10 years behind MASK

Before I continue with this post, I would like to share a little knowledge from my Law class which I learnt during a long time ago, well not that long, maybe about 1year +-. Anyways, you always see the penalty for any offence to either or, or both. For example, Fine of no more then MYR50,000 or Jail for no longer then 10 years, or both. I believe all of you would understand at least this part which is the offender will either be penalize with MYR50,000 fine or go behind bar for a max of 10 years. But how many of you know about both? Not too long before the lecture, I always thought both means the offender will have to pay MYR50,000 and go to jail for 10 years, but oh, was I so wrong. Because you will either get Max penalty of A or B never both. Lets stir up that strong brain of yours.

Imagine that you are the judge, and you have three cups of equal size, two of them are empty and have a Jail & Fine sticker on it, the third cup has a offender sticker on it and its filled up full. If you pour all the water into the Jail cup, it means the offender will have to go behind bar for the maximum jail term of his crime. Vice versa, if you fill the Fine cup, he will have to pay the maximum amount of fine. Having said that, I believe you could pretty much tell that the offender can't have max of both because one cup of water can't fill two same cups. So back to the both, if the you, the judge deems it necessary for the offender to face the maximum of both, you will have to give 50% of Jail and 50% of fine. Taking my previous example: The offender can either be penalize with a MYR50,000 fine, a 10 years Jail term, or a MYR25,000 fine + 5 years Jail term.

I know I am not a good teacher, but hey, I am trying my best.

Ok, now lets start with the main topic, in case if you are wondering about the title, No, its not a typo. I will try and save you by not giving you the whole grandfather story after reading the above post (I somehow doubt anyone reading anyway), so here is the summary.

5 year-old boy from China, fell into a pile of burning straw at his hometown in Fenyang. He is forced to wear a full surgical mask to prevent infection because he lost most of his skin around his head and hands, and this might be his face until he is 14-19 years-old depending on his trachea as doctors can't perform the skin-graft surgery until it is large enough.

Poor boy can only play with his canine, ultraman and his 3 year-old brother. He could play with other kids, but only, and only if the mother bribes them with snacks.
