Cina buta Here's a situation involving a married Malay man and woman.He divorced her three times and according to Islamic law, he is not allowed to be reconciled to her. Unless...she married another man but somehow this other man divorced her as well...Wah, kasihan! This woman is dumped four times.But now her ex-husband is allowed to take her in again by remarrying her. The other man, in this situation is called: "cina buta".
I cannot find any references that translate this term as :" blind Chinese". Coming to think of it, it doesn't make sense to get a Chinese who most probably is not a moslem to be involved. An old kamus writes this simpulan bahasa as one word--"cinabuta" and defines it as "blind love".
The encyclopedia of Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka in elaborating cina buta, mentions ex-husbands who manipulates the situation by employing new converts who are not familiar with this aspect of the law, so "cina buta" is actually a man who is still blind to the Islamic law. In fact, there is ex-husband who tries to play with contract technicalities, by paying another man to marry his ex-wife and then divorce her, so that it is legal for him to be reconciled to her.
"How often it is that we see a man divorce his wife, take her back, divorce her again irrevocably and then yearn for her return again. But, now he needs a muhallil. So he finds one to live with his former wife as man and wife and then divorce her. Then, the husband marries his wife again, only to divorce her a third time. On and on the story goes. And, after every time he divorces her, he searches about for a feeble old man to act as muhallil while she will settle for nothing but a strapping youth!"--Ahmed El-Sawi Mohamed, author of the famous column, "Short but significant"

Colok mata Colok is the kind of torch held by a runner in the Olympics. A person who displays in public whatever that should be kept private is figuratively lighting a torch to make it conspicuous to the eyes of other people. Another meaning of colok mata is to anger, which makes it synonymous with another simpulan bahasa, jolok mata. Literally speaking, colok mata is different from jolok mata. Jolok is to poke a fruit with a pole until it falls from a tree. Jolok is also to poke a finger into the nostril to dig out...ooops you knowlah. I would say jolok mata is more painful than colok mata.
