TERKINI : Palestinian inmates agree to end hunger strike

GAZA (Reuters) - Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails agreed on Monday to an Egyptian-brokered deal aimed at ending a masshunger strike that challenged Israel's policy of detention without trial and raised fears of a bloody Palestinian backlash if any protesters died.

Most of some 1,600 prisoners, a third of the 4,800 Palestinians in Israeli jails, began refusing food on April 17 although a few had been fasting much longer - up to 77 days.

Their protest centered on demands for more family visits, an end to solitary confinement and an end to so-called "administrative detention", a practice that has drawn international criticism on human rights grounds.
Palestinian officials said Egypt had drafted an agreement in Cairo with representatives of the Palestinian prisoners, and that inmates met during the day and had agreed to the terms.

There was no immediate word from the prisoners as to whether any had actually ended their strike.

An Egyptian official involved in the talks said that under Monday's deal to end the strike, Israel had agreed to end solitary confinement for 19 prisoners and lifted a ban on visits to prisoners by relatives living in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip.

Israel also agreed to improve other conditions of detention, and to free so-called administrative detainees once they complete their terms unless they are brought to court, the Egyptian official said.

Gaza's Hamas leaders hailed the strike as a successful campaign against Israel and celebrations quickly spread to the streets where motorists honked horns, and passersby embraced and shouted "Allahu Akbar," the Arabic for "God is great."

"This is a first step toward liberation and victory," said Fawzi Barhoum, a spokesman for the Islamist group

Permainan "Chapteh"


Ya, pernah tak korang main permainan 'chapteh' @ 'capteh' ni?? 
Ni lah permainan kegemaran aku masa kecik-kecik dulu.
Serius best. haha
okeh, permainan ni dikatakan berasal dari China   (dipanggil sebagai Jiànzi (毽子)) pada abad ke-5 dan ia popular di negara-negara asia yang lain. Kemudian permainan ni dibawa ke Eropah pada 1936 menerusi satu permainan pertunjukan di Sukan Olimpik musim panas 1936 di Berlin, Jerman.
Kat bawah ni nama-nama panggilan permainan ni di beberapa negara :


  • USA - kikbo
  • Vietnam - đá cầu
  • Malaysia -  chapteh or capteh or sepak bulu ayam
  • Singapore (and SE Asia) - chapteh or capteh or chatek
  • Japan - Kebane (蹴羽根)
  • Korea - jegichagi or jeigi (to most Koreans known as sports only for children)
  • Indonesia - bola bulu tangkis or sepak kenchi
  • Philippines - larong sipa
  • Macau - chiquia
  • India - poona (forerunner of badminton) (unknown to most Indians)
  • Greece - Podopterisi
  • France - da câu or plumfoot or pili
  • Poland - zośka
  • The Netherlands - "Voetpluim" or "voet pluim" or "Jianzi"



Dah-dah, malas aku nak cerita panjang-panjang pasal sejarah, korang boleh tanye Pakcik Google nanti ye..kehkehkeh..
Kita beralih kepada cara permainannya. Ia dimainkan dalam 'court', dan cara permainannya lebih kurang macam Sepak Takraw la. Boleh main timang-timang bulu tuu..huhu..Dalam erti kata lain, kalau korang kaki bangku, besar kemungkinan korang takkan pandai main permainan ni.

Tapi, sekarang ni jarang pulak aku nampak orang main chapteh ni. Tak tau kenapa, takkan dah pupus kot..?
Masa kecik-kecik dlu, aku buat sendiri jer bola tu (bola ke?? tak macam bola pun! hahaha)
Senang je nak buat chapteh ni.



See?
Inilah barang-barang yang aku perlukan masa aku nak buat chapteh ni masa kecik-kecik dulu.
Mula-mula ambil paku tu (paku kecik je tau! ia juga berfungsi sebagai pemberat), cucuk kat tengah-tengah kepingan getah. Lepas tu ambil bulu ayam tu semua, susun sekeliling paku kecil yg dah menembusi kepingan getah tu. Last sekali, balutkan pita pelekat di pangkal bulu ayam tu.
Korang faham ke tak ni? lantak korang la kalau tak faham..hehehe

babaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.....














p/s: bila lah nak dapat main chapteh ni lagi...
