1Toilet

2009-10-16T00:53:00.002+08:00

OMG, what is happening?

It is bizar to have 1Toilet ya.

State Education, Higher Learning, Human Resource, Science and Technology
Committee chairman Ahmad Razif Abd Rahman said the policy was mooted in line
with the 1Malaysia concept, and teachers and students could have a feeling of
“oneness”.
“We want students to have a sense of belonging that we believe
would inspire them to excel further in their education.
“When students share
the toilets with the teacher, they (students) will believe that they are on par
with academicians and this automatically invokes a sense of being important to
an organisation, which, in this case, is the school.
I believe many of us use the same toilet as my lecturer / boss.
Does it makes any difference?

Round up

2008-10-31T02:15:00.002+08:00

I need people good in math to help me with this difficult rounding up.
$ 1.607 to $ 1.61 sound reasonable?
How about $ 1.607 to $ 1.7 does not make much difference?
And this $ 1.606 billion to $ 1.7 billion.
Rounding up figure of just $ 0.93 billion. Still sound reasonable?
Well read it another way, $ 93 million.
And another way $ 93 000 thousand.
Let just read da figures only $ 93 000 000.

Our beloved PM just said it's a mistake and lets us forget about it.
He added "We will decide later on to negotiate for the purchase of the helicopter -- when we feel it is time to do that and we feel we have money to do that -- we see what the price will be"
What is he trying to inform us? He wanna to show everyone the nicer "round up" price?

Our beloved DPM also said opposition is making too much issue out of it.

Well, read all about it the best rounding up figure on earth.

Notice anything strange in the pic?

Yeah, you might spotted it, there is a bench in the middle. This is a sidewalk for people to walk and cars are pilling on both sides on it. May be because there are very limited car park around town.

Walk for several minutes I bump in to these strange "feng shui" rock on the path. hmmm wonder what they are there for. May be drop down from MARS.

Walk again watch a building being demolished. Boom... boom...

still in progress.... boom... boom...

Voila !! Mission accomplish!

KL - Berlin - Paris

2008-09-11T01:18:00.004+08:00

Bonjour Bonjour Bonjour,

1st time travelled so far away from home, about 10400km was indeed a very good experience.

Was suppose to be KL - Amsterdam - Paris. Where I used to joke that my boss kick me back to Holland.

Well did not have a very good start, the flight from KL was delayed for about 2 hours. No sweat, just a minor set back.
Got into the plane and sat down, request for a asile seat but got a window seat instead, no sweat as well.

Bon voyage M'sia..

It's like a mini restaurant in the plane.
1st they serve appertizer, which is of course peanuts with free flow of drinks.
Air hostess : What do you want to drink sir?
Iko : Hmmmmm red wine pls.
AH : How old are you sir?
Iko : 25
AH : I'm afraid I need to see your ID.
IKO : @#$%^&@#$%^&, here you are. #$%^&*@#$%^&*
AH : Here you are, enjoy your drink. #$%^&*
IKO : Thanks @#$%^&*

Drink drink drink and quickly go to sleep.
An hour later, serve soup pula. at 3am in the morning. I pass..
Continue my sleep... hehehehe

Woke up dunno what time, saw the sunrise for hours.
The sun like can't get out of bed, always hide under the clouds. The scenery was breathtaking.

From up there, you can see the many many shapes of the clouds.
Some looks as hard as rock, some looks as soft as cotton.

Hungry Hungry... skipped the earlier soup now waiting for breakfast. hehehehehe
Half an hour later breakfast is serve, "traditional dutch breakfast" -Mini french loaf, yogurt, sausages, brocolli, omellete. Which is kinda nice.

Shortly after that we arrived in Berlin, Germany supposingly for a short detour, due to some unexpected reasons. After several hours there, we felt hungry and thisty, took 15 euro voucher from the airlines and went for a brunch.

Waited for another couple of hours finally board the plane and departed to Paris.

Sounds nice right? It's the flight to be remembered.
1) The 747-400 can fly with only 3 engines :)
2) The A321 can fly while the engine is on fire :)

Working or Acting?

2008-04-21T08:32:00.002+08:00

When did the Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop became the Second Finance Minister??
Yesterday or the day before?
Well he held the position since 2004.
4 years down the road and now only he instructed all government agencies to reduce frills when organising official functions to cut cost and prevent wastage.

He said

"
It is a moral thing. At a time when everybody is affected by price
increases, government agencies should also take heed of the situation by not
organising events on a big scale because this might lead to wastage. Government
agencies should not hold events at five-star hotels, which is quite unnecessary
and very costly. It is suffice to conduct events in a moderate manner but
produce fruitful results. We should start saving money so that we can use the
excess to help the rakyat
"

And also Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi had said that

the mid-term review of the Ninth Malaysia Plan (9MP), would give
priority to projects that benefited the people

Since when the rakyat became so important to them? Aren't they suppose to be working to benefit the rakyat from day one rather than by just start to think of rakyat now. I am sure that this is not the first time events were held in luxuries places. So why remind them now? I should had been done long time ago, maybe I presume as soon as he was elected as the Second Finance Minister. Ok la, give him 1 year to adapt to the ministry. At least he should had voiced it out since 2005.

Anyway FYI the 9MP was announced on 31 March 2006.

Giving prioroty to projects that benefited people???

So when the projects started it was not benefiting people I guess. Who was it benefiting then? So was the rakyat in the 9MP from the beginning? Or was they left out in the discussion and suddenly they realised that rakyat was not in the 9MP. Strange ya suddenly every MP cares about rakyat.

KL-Ipoh Commuter Train Service Delayed, To Begin Only In 2010

2008-04-17T20:57:00.002+08:00

Sigh,

Another failure project.

The project started in 2001 which cost RM4.3 billion just to built the double rail track from Rawang-Ipoh.

It was reported that 98% of the project has been completed and contractors are now in the final phase of testing the electricity cables.

The delay is because of the approval to buy new trains was only given recently, it would take at least another two years for the trains to arrive. It is expected that the six new electric trains cost RM150 million, with each train having six coaches.

WTF, 7 years to built the rail track..
At 98% project completion only approve the purchase of new trains.
Where did the project management went too all these years?
They can order the train 2 years earlier.

Engineers of poor quality

2008-04-17T08:13:00.002+08:00

Well, it was in the newspaper saying that Engineers of poor quality.

Sad to say but I have to agree with what they said.
Universities does not work together with industrial as well as BEM or IEM.
For example Electrical & Electronics student cannot even apply as an Electrical with BEM/IEM.

Why is that so?
I believe that universities merely offer course which they think relevant to them and not to industrial which as mention suits the point mention by SHYAM LAKSHMANAN.

Anyway it is nice to know that many other universities starts to invites professionals from the industry to review their curriculum and suggest areas for improvement. But then after the discussion was there any action taken to made any improvement? You may have dozen of discussion and activities but end of the day, if nothing is done it would be back to square 1.

New PM???

2008-04-11T08:43:00.004+08:00

I was browsing The Star this morning when I came across this topic, "PM, Tell your family before you convert".

I was reading half way through when I saw the picture of our PM. I was like WOW. Nice picture of him. Our new PM?

Hours later, I saw that the picture has been changed.

I guess V.P. SUJATA very eagar to change PM

Drink Water From Tap?

2007-12-17T23:59:00.000+08:00

When I first heard about it from my friends several years back, but was thinking that it is rather strange if M'sia would someday drink water from tap.

I am sure even after installing several water filters in your house, you would still boil the water before you drink. This method had been passed down from generations to generations and is still being used through M'sia.

How clean would the tap water be? Can it possibily happen in M'sia?

Mr Ho's Fine Food

2007-12-10T01:23:00.000+08:00

It was strange to receive sms from lch at 3am on Sunday for a lunch appointment at Mr Ho's Fine Food for sausages feast... I was awake by the sms, and didn't bother to reply till I woke up later in the morning.

Before I continue further, would like to apologize any inconvenience caused.
At 12pm, I was informed that the lunch appointment was postpone to dinner because of some unavoidable circumstances. Which indirectly extended PChen n Ivy's shopping period where by they started to wonder around Mid-Valley since 2pm.

Well to cut the long story short, we had a simple pork knuckles at Mr Ho's Fine Food. I seldom eat pork knuckles, but the one they served taste reasonable. The dish was served together with pork chop, bacon's n sausages .... photos will be attached soon.... Btw Stephy should be attending the dinner too, as she is a die hard PORK lover. She enjoys food that is served with pork.

After the dinner, I was a bit suprise to realise that the occasion was to celebrate Kenny's n my birthday. It was very much earlier than the actual date, as many of them will not be available during the holiday season. Year end holiday. Hehe. Don't forget to buy back some souvenir's ya !!

Thank you lch, pchen, ivy, and doris n kenny for celebration ya.

FYI, Kenny is two days older than me.

One ship drives east and another drives west,
With the same winds that blow.
Tis the set of sails,
And not the gales,
That tells us the way to go.
Like the winds of the seas are the ways of fate.
As we vogaye along through life,
Tis set of a soul,
That decides its goal,
And not the calm, or the strife.

Famine 30

2007-09-18T02:07:00.000+08:00

This is my first time participating in this event, well actually I just knew about it few months ago. Did not know what to expect from it and what to do when I registered myself as a volunteer helper for the event.

I arrived at the stadium at 7am, I was told that I was to lead a group for the coming 30hours. About 90% of the group leaders were given two days of training, and they know what to do and expect from the group members. For me, I was only given a 30 minutes, super crash course of the training.

Since I was told that the it was a bilingual [English + Mandarin] event, I was hoping that I was to be leading a English group. But there were no more vacancy in the English groups, I was to lead a mandarin speaking group. Since I am able to speak a little bit of mandarin, I accepted the position, that is not the toughest part. The toughest part came in, when I realized that the handouts are written in Chinese!!

LKY and CWM explained the handouts to me line by line. Thank you very much for your help. Since I do not have any handouts (English) to refer, I would have to memorize the explanations that I heard.

The participant arrived!! I was so anxious and hoped that no one will enter my group. While waiting for the participant, I realized that participant may choose which group they would like to enter. Luckily YPC, LSH, WSL participated in the event as well, I fished them to my group. But I was not allowed to have my own group of 3, I need to have 17 people before I can have my own group. Thanks to YPC who helped to gather the rest of the group members.

If you did participated in the camp, you might remember the activities that was held.

1) The importance of having clean water.
2) Shelter.
3) Balance diet.

Activity 1,

Participant will tie a wet string across their body connected to the participant beside him/her, then all 18 participant will move around and try to reach the string in the center. They will felt that the wet string crawling all around their back.

Explanation:

Having clean and unpolluted water is important, we are very lucky to have a clean water supply, there are many who depends on pond as their main source of water supply, even they know that the pond infested with guinea worms but they have no choice but to drink rather than to be dehydrated.

The guinea worm will remain in their body, and grow as time goes on. The worm will grow up to 3 feet long and then will try to make a hole near the feet of the victim. The victim will then need to consult a Dr (if he/she is lucky to meet one) to remove the worm out of their body.

Activity 2,

Participants were given 20 minutes to design and construct a house made of newspaper.

Explanation:

From the second activity, it shows that throughout the world, many are still living in poverty, whole family stays in a small and unsafe house made of plastic cover, branches, and etc etc. The small house may be with the area of around 4 meter square will be their living room, dining room, bedroom, and kitchen.

What if, there is a heavy rain or in a windy day and what will happen to their houses? Still standing strong?

Activity 3:

Participants were given two blank sheets of paper and were required to fill in what they would like to have for breakfast, lunch, dinner and supper on Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

Explanation:

After they filled in, random picture were selected from the envelope and stick on to the paper. It compare the food you desire and the food obtained by the less fortunate. Blank sheets means, NO FOOD. Some food ate by them are polluted, expired, left overs by others.

Certificates to group members.

Breaking the 30 hour Fast.

I apologize to my group members for lack of experience and preparation I had for this event. Last but not list, thank you LKY, CWM, YPC, LSH and WSL for your endless help during the entire event.

Man shoplifts believing supermarket belongs to him

2007-08-21T19:27:00.000+08:00

He was charged in a magistrate’s court with shoplifting two bottles of gin worth RM91.98 from a supermarket but the 53-year-old man was under the delusion that the supermarket belonged to him.

He claimed that “I didn’t steal. I heard voices telling me to go and take the bottles. The supermarket is mine, how can that be considered stealing?”

He said this when he was called up Tuesday at a magistrate’s court after a psychiatric report on him was tendered.

However, insisted that he wished to plead guilty to the charge of stealing two bottles of Rose Mary Churchill Dry Gin from the Giant supermarket in Penang Plaza, Burmah Road, at 12.35pm on July 2.

This prompted the court to explain to him that his psychiatric report had established he was of unsound mind and unaware of his offence and that he would be sent to stay at the psychiatric hospital.

Biker fails to notice missing leg

2007-08-15T22:29:00.000+08:00

A Japanese biker failed to notice his leg had been severed below the knee when he hit a safety barrier, and rode on for more than a mile, leaving a friend to pick up the missing limb.

The 54-year-old office worker was out on his motorcycle with a group of friends in the city of Hamamatsu, west of Tokyo, on Monday, when he was unable to negotiate a curve in the road and bumped into the central barrier, the Mainichi Shimbun said.

He felt excruciating pain, but did not notice that his right leg was missing until he stopped at the next junction, the paper quoted local police as saying.

The man and his leg were taken to a hospital, but the limb had been crushed in the collision, the paper said.

The man was really enjoying his ride, till he don't even felt the pain!!!

Sultan Azlan Shah airport upgrade is off

2007-08-15T22:12:00.000+08:00

The plan to upgrade the terminal building and lengthen the runway of the under-utilised Sultan Azlan Shah Airport is off.

Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Mohamad Tajol Rosli Ghazali said this was because the state government was concerned that money spent on the project might not generate the growth needed to boost economic activities in Ipoh and Perak.

We need to look at other alternatives,” he said yesterday after attending a day with customers of Perak Tengah district office here, about 45km from Ipoh.
The airport in Ipoh is currently under-utilised, with only twice weekly flights from Ipoh to Medan.

Tajol Rosli pointed out that it would cost some RM70mil to lengthen the current runway to accommodate a Boeing 737, which could only ply the Kuala Lumpur-Ipoh route.
“This would not generate the growth needed for Ipoh.

He added that it would cost some RM309mil to upgrade the airport to allow an A320 Airbus to land with a limited fuel load, but the aircraft would not be able to fly to foreign destinations like Bangkok, Jakarta and Madras.

“So the airport will still be used only for the Ipoh-Kuala Lumpur sector,” he said.
One alternative, he said, was to build an airport near the town here, which would benefit the surrounding towns of Tronoh and Batu Gajah too.

“When the highway to Lumut is completed, then foreigners could even be drawn into buying second homes near here or in Pangkor Island,” he said.

Well, they might as well just close down then entire airport since it's under-utilised, use that piece of land to do some other useful stuff !!!
He was the one who suggested that the airport will be upgraded, when the upgrade is approved, he dun want !!

If the airport is not upgraded, FOREVER there will be no planes bigger than 737 can land in the airport!!

HOW can airlines plan for any international routes for ipoh if the airport is not upgraded ??
then blames will go to the airlines again n again for not making ipoh one of their destination.

Petrol kiosks to operate 24/7

2007-08-15T22:03:00.000+08:00

Wat da hell?
operating hours from 7am to 10pm?
supermarket?
mini market?
or da restaurant near your house?

They are talking about Petrol kiosks !!!
The Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister, did the right thing for not allowing the Petroleum Dealers Association to do what they want. Their claims are not logical at all.

Closing these kiosks at 10pm would jeopardise the interests of the people and the economy!!
Means no more night travelling, if really so happen you car run out of petrol.. too bad, just leave your car where it is and wait till the Petrol kioks opens at 7am.

Man threw his wife off a 10th-floor flat

2007-08-15T21:53:00.000+08:00

The man who allegedly threw his wife off a 10th-floor flat has two other wives living with him.

The 41-year-old woman, who died on the spot, was the man's first wife.

It is believed that the man was under the influence of alcohol when he threw his wife from the flat during a fight at 5.30pm on Sunday.

The woman's 87-year-old grandmother, who was trying to stop the fight, died of a heart attack after seeing her granddaughter being thrown off the block of flats.

WHAT IS HAPPENING??????
I thought those only happen in movies??
In real life, such ridiculous things happen.

what happen?
what happen?
this blog was abandon for so long.
i even found some spiderwebs hanging around when i login.
hehehehehe

anyway anyone of you heard of pet cemetery???

Well the 20,000 sq feet cemetery is exclusively for cats and dogs. As many pet owners were children, the cemetery was designed with a children’s theme park in mind.

Workers will pick up the remains of the animal from home, place it in a sealed body bag and send it to the cemetery where specialists would disinfect the body before placing the animal into a specially-made coffin.

The animal will be buried within 24 hours and a tombstone will be erected.

Lets organise a mud jumping trip!!

KL Tower International Jump

2007-07-11T19:30:00.000+08:00

About 100 international BASE(Buildings, Antennas, Span and Earth) jumpers are expected to demonstrate their extreme skydiving skills during the KL Tower International Jump to be held at the Tower from Aug 24 to 26.

The International Jump would be the culmination of a series of jumps held at various towers in the country, especially Menara Pelita, Sarawak (Aug 8), Menara Tun Mustapha, Sabah (Aug 11-12), Menara Alor Star (Aug 16-17), Menara Komtar (Aug 19) and Menara TM (Aug 26).

BASE is not for the faint-hearted as it requires exceptional skills due to the height factor. Skydivers taking part in BASE jumping are required to have done a minimum of 150 free fall exercises to qualify.

Well if you are not upto the International Jump, try the KL International Towerthon on Oct 28 which will also be held in the KL Tower .The race which will be a severe test to the physical, mental and endurance level of runners comprises a 800m uphill run that leads to 2,058 steps of running and climbing.

....
Teacher : Ok, now try this question. Bobby and Steven own a Perodua Kancil, Bobby's car is black colour, what colour is Steven's car?

***Sigh, imagine you are attending Lecture 1, Lecture 2 !! No one understands what the lecturer is lecturing. Hmmmmm may be he himself understands.***

Lecture 2

2007-07-11T17:44:00.000+08:00

Teacher : E > F

.....bla bla........
.....bla bla...
..... bla bla....

Teacher : By using this equation C+D = 10,
Teacher : Lets say C = 2, D = 3
Teacher : C+D = 5, so not equal to 10, then we modified the equation to C+D+E = 10,
Teacher : Then assume E = 2

Teacher : C+D+E = 7, still not equal to 10
Teacher : To get the answer as 10,
Teacher : C+D+E+F = 10, we can find F = 3
Teacher : Thus we solve the question by assume E = 2, and we will be able to find F = 3

***Stupid !! Can just assume E = 5 then end of story. Or better still, find the value of E !!! No need to use F also***

Student : But it does not satisfied E>F
Teacher : Who said so? E > F !!
Student : 2 > 3 ????
Teacher : Aiyah, just assume all negative la

Teacher : C+D+E+F = -10,
Teacher : C = -2, D = -3, E = -2, F = -3,
Teacher : -2 > -3.
Teacher : E>F !! Correct or not?

Student : ...............

Lecture 1

2007-07-03T18:52:00.000+08:00

Teacher : We can find the value of a by using the following equation, a = b+c. a would be a valid answer if a = 0 !

.....bla bla...
..... bla bla....
.... bla bla....

Teacher : a = b-c, if b = 0, c = 1,
Teacher : we would get a = -1, so the answer for a is not valid.
Student : but u mention earlier that a = b+c .
Teacher : did i? u saw the wrong equation la..

**teacher quickly refer back to the text book and found that it's true that a = b+c**

Teacher : ok, so a = b+c,
Teacher : we obtain the value of a = -1 with the equation a = b-c.
Student : u just mention that a = b+c, but why u r using a = b-c to solve the question???
Teacher : because a=b-c !!
Student : huh????? how come different from what u mention earlier?
Teacher : just follow la a = b-c .
Teacher : aiyoh, a = b-c ...... a=-1 and a =b+c ......a=1
Teacher : both the value of a also not equals to zero!! so what is the difference? value of a is still not valid.
Student : ...............

Organ & Tissue donation.

2007-07-01T21:15:00.000+08:00

Saw an article in the newspaper today regarding Organ & Tissue donor.

Age criterion:
There is no age limit. Those over the age of 18 only have to fill in the form and send it. Those under the age of 18 must obtain consent from the parents or legal guardian.

Inform immediate family members:
Family consent is an essential component, and their permission is required before any organ or tissue donation procedures can proceed.

Fill in the pledge form:
Fill in the form available from any of the sources listed below. It is a simple process, but remember to fill in all relevant sections carefully.

Mail it and wait for a donor card:
Once the form is completed, remember to mail it. The National Transplant Resource Centre will enter your details into its database and you will receive a donor card. Once received, you will officially be classified as an organ or tissue pledger.

Always keep donor card with you:
Remember to carry your card wherever you go. Your noble intentions will come to naught if there is no way to identify you as a pledger.

Signing up as an organ or tissue donor is a fully reversible process.

If you change your mind, all you have to do is inform your family and return your donor card to the National Transplant Resource Centre and state your intention to be deregistered as an organ donor.

Several durian stalls in Jalan Van Praagh , Penang are accepting credit card payment for purchase above RM 40. Banners saying "We accept Master and Visa"

This a good start for cashless payment. In the near future, we might the Visa Wave might come in handy. Maybe mamak stalls will start too, "Wave your nasi lemak".

SRK SMI

2007-06-08T10:00:00.000+08:00

Ops, forgot to mention, SMI stands for St. Michael Institution.

Previously it had two primary school joined together, SMI 1 and SMI 2.
Each have their own management style. Different head master, teachers and of course student as well. It means each have their own students from Standard 1 to Standard 6.

For the first half of the year, SMI 1 would be having the morning session while SMI 2 will be having the afternoon session. For the second half of the year, both school will swap session.

Finally after dunno how decades of planning for the new primary block, they have a new building now!!

Old Primary Block.

This is the standard 1 classrooms.

Down the hallway is the school's office.

NEW PRIMARY BLOCK

Wow !! It looks so much nicer than the old primary school.

The new primary school is located just behind the canteen, I wonder what happen to the secondary's KH block. Demolished?? The single story building on the left was the old primary block.

The old primary block is now being used as classrooms for Form One students to the bigger-sized Form Four and Form Five students. They are generally enduring the crampy classrooms, toilets, corridors and doors made for kids. The main building of the Secondary SMI building is under renovations.

Stay tune...

Tribute to the HERO.

2007-06-06T21:39:00.000+08:00

Before the tribute starts, lets ponder for a second what does alcohol + road bully + accident can be linked together?

Hmmm any idea?

Let the story begins, the HERO was drunk after a clubbing session with some babes. So he decided to call it a day and happily drove home alone. He was given the title "HERO the Road Bully" as no one dare to mess with him on the road.

On his way back, his car was hit by another car, it did not stop apologize or to pay some respect to the HERO. Normally it would be just a hit and run accident but it was not their day. The HERO gave ignite the turbo and gave it a chase. As usual, no one can out smart him on the road. The HERO caught up with it and stop the car.

The HERO got down and vulgarly insulted the bastard, but tooo bad ... the HERO went out of luck, as there were two bastards in the car. They got out and gave the HERO some "hugs + kisses".

In the end, the HERO was given a new title "HERO was on the road and then being bullied".
Lets have 3 cheers for the HERO.

Proton net loss of RM 591.3 million

2007-06-01T10:02:00.000+08:00

The national carmaker posted a net loss of RM913,000 in the quarter to March 31 2007, its fourth straight quarterly loss. This brings its full-year results to a net loss of RM591.3 million.

Besides the German carmaker, General Motors Corp had in the past expressed interest along with Peugeot to work with Proton.

When both the car manufacturers pulled out, Volkswagen became the forerunner.

Volkswagen has dropped out of talks to become its equity partner.

Managing director Datuk Syed Zainal Syed Mohamed blamed the slump on lower sales and other factors like one-off expenses and provisions.

Eh, ehhhh....
How can they blame on the lower sales?

If lets say you are selling "pisang goreng" at RM 1.00 for 6 pieces, someone nearby your stall is selling at RM 1.00 for 5 pieces, but yours looks ugly, taste bad, not fresh, your service is slow and you show BIG boss attitude to your customer.

So do you blame you customer for not buying your "pisang goreng" ???
Or you can blame it on your competitor for giving better service and making better "pisang goreng" than yours.

PENANG: A 56-year-old man died after repeatedly stabbing himself in the abdomen five times when his daughter demanded to know why he had given her away for adoption 25 years ago.

Two 56-year-old man died the same way in the same state in two similar incidents.
Both stabbed themselves 5 times in the stomach/abdomen after an argument with their child.

Punctuality among Malaysians.

2007-05-27T12:00:00.000+08:00

To many people, it was alright to be late as long as you attend the event as actually they did not have the intention of being late but the were still plagued by the lackadaisical attitude of "tak apalah".

It is very common among many Malaysians, particularly the younger generation

Even now you see many among the undergraduates, walking in leisurely some 10-20 minutes late into the lecture halls, despite being aware of the fact that classes begin at 10.00 am !!

Sometimes lack of punctuality may spark a chain reaction. If you are late for one event, you may be late for the subsequent event. And if you are so used to be late in your younger years, then there are high chances that you are going to be late during your adulthood. It tends to become habitual.

Don't you agree?

Night vision goggles

2007-05-27T02:37:00.000+08:00

A 21-year-old police constable was nabbed by GSC cinema stewards in Berjaya Times Square yesterday. He is believed to have recorded about 30 minutes of the movie on his mobile phone.

After he was detained, his friend allegedly called for help and a police sergeant arrived at the cinema.The suspect, however, was handed over to enforcement officers from the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry and later taken to the city police headquarters.

He was released on bail pending further investigations. He is also expected to be hauled up before a disciplinary committee.Stringent measures have been taken by cinemas and authorities to prevent the illegal recording of newly-released movies.

These include installing closed-circuit television cameras in all movie halls, and stewards wearing night vision goggles, similar to those used by military commandos.

After showing people to their seats, trained ushers are strapping on the goggles and scanning darkened cinemas around the country to spot anyone trying to make illegal copies of movies with hand-held video recorders or mobile phones.

Essay Competition??

2007-05-25T12:00:00.000+08:00

I wonder how are they going to evaluate the essay???

"Kategori " ?
instead of category?

"The competition will be divided"?

Well I thought the competiton had already been divided in to two categories? Or they are still thinking to joining both of it.

"Winners will receive cash prizes and certificate" ?

Eh, so many winners, so many cash prizes to be given away, but only one certificate to be shared among them.

It was taken from Ministries Of Plantation Industries And Commodities.

System to completely disable stolen handphones

2007-05-25T09:49:00.000+08:00

A national database for lost and stolen handphones will be set up and any handphone reported lost will be completely disabled. This means a stolen handphone cannot be sold to anyone to be used even with a new SIM card.

Last year, some 100,000 handphones were reported lost; the actual figure could be much higher than that as most Malaysians are reluctant to report the loss of items like handphones.

Similar schemes launched in Britain and Australia had proven to be successful. Statistics in Britain had shown that in the first six months following the launch of the programme in November 2002, almost 500,000 lost or stolen mobile phones were blocked.

In Australia, there was a 23% drop in mobile phone thefts within 12 weeks of the launch of the scheme.

The move will also incorporate a nationwide handset blocking service, meaning that those who lose their handphones will be able to render the devices useless upon reporting their loss to the database operators.

This includes barring the PIN Unblocking Key (PUK), which provides access to the SIM card.
With the system, consumers and handphone traders can also check if a handphone offered to them is stolen.

The service, however, will not be compulsory and it will not be free. There will be an affordable one-time registration fee.

The entire system sound so complicated, block this and that. But it sounds very cool !!

What About Size?

2007-05-20T15:11:00.000+08:00

Few days ago Deputy minister Datuk S. Veerasingam today assured consumers that the roti canai and capati price would not be raised.

Click here for archived post of Good News For Roti Canai Lovers ...

But there are concern that it's the "price tags" remain the same but there was no guarantee that the size and quality would not be reduced.

Forget about the roti canai for a moment, noodles, breads too are made from flour as well. Would the price be increased?
Size and quality decreased?

Driver who raped stepdaughters

2007-05-19T13:15:00.000+08:00

Ninety years’ jail and 18 strokes of the rotan!

That was what a Sessions Court here meted out on a lorry driver who raped and forced his two underage stepdaughters to perform oral sex on him.

The man, however, will only serve 30 years because most of the jail terms for the multiple charges are to run concurrently from the date of arrest on April 30.

The girls, aged 14 and 15, had lodged police reports on that day when their mother discovered that the elder one was seven months’ pregnant following a hospital check-up.

The man did not show any emotion when he heard the verdict yesterday.
He had committed the offences in his bedroom and the girls’ room at their home in Cheras sometime in the middle of 2005 to April this year.

The court was told that he had married the girls’ mother in 1997. He raped them when his wife, a security guard, went to work.

The man first raped the younger girl sometime in mid-2005, after pulling her into his bedroom and forcing her to perform oral sex on him.

He also threatened to beat her if she told her mother about it. He repeated the crimes on her in December last year.

In January last year, while the elder girl was reading a book, he rubbed her cheeks and then pulled her to his bed and raped her. Three months later, he forced her to perform oral sex on him.

On another occasion, while the girl was washing dishes in the kitchen, he asked her to have sex with him and sometime in April this year, he raped her again.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Tetralina Ahmed Fawzi pressed for a deterrent sentence, saying that it was in the public interest and that the offences were serious and described the man’s actions as “heinous, sinful and disgraceful”.

He should had been jail for 90 years !!!! Let him die in jail.

Good News For Roti Canai Lovers ...

2007-05-18T19:08:00.000+08:00

Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry is not accommodating the request for a price hike.

Deputy minister Datuk S. Veerasingam today assured consumers that the roti canai and capati price would not be raised.He said that contrary to a news report yesterday, the Malaysian Muslim Restaurant Operators Association (Presma) and the Indian Restaurant Operators Association (Prisma) had promised not to hike the price of the delicacy.

Yesterday, Presma deputy president I Kamarul Zaman Seenimohideen was quoted as saying that its members would increase the price of roti canai and capati by 10 sen starting next month and that the move was inevitable due to the price rise in other cooking materials.The price of general purpose flour was increased by 15 sen per kg in the peninsula and 10 sen per kg in Sabah and Sarawak effective last Tuesday.

Consumers who find themselves paying more than the present price, which is between 70 sen and RM1.20, for roti canai could complain to the ministry and enforcement would also be stepped up to ensure that traders do not increase prices of consumer goods at whim.

No worries friends, the price of roti canai will be increasesd, lets have a roti canai feast !!
Btw how much flour do they need to make a piece of roti canai?
I don't think they need a kg to do so right ??
Their request for the price hike is unreasonable and unacceptable.

Happy Mother's Day

2007-05-18T00:26:00.000+08:00

It's a dog's life for three newborn tiger triplets in eastern China. The cubs, whom officials at the Jinan Paomaling Wild Animal World in Shandong province are so far just calling "One," "Two" and "Three," have been nursed by a dog since they were rejected by their tiger mother shortly after birth.

The trio's adoptive mother, a mixed breed farm dog called "Huani," is expected to nurse them for about a month or until their appetites outpace her supply.

In the past, Paomaling put dog urine on their rejected cub's fur to make the surrogate think she was nursing one of her own puppies but the zoo didn't bother with Huani because she seemed not to mind nursing the tigers.

Mothers love have no boundaries ...

Happy Mother's Day.

Life why not, gives wings to lion,
And melodies to the ocean
Why not make gains plenty as pains
And give shame a bounding chain

Oh you beast,
You bound up the innocent,
And set at liberty the criminals
You have a tongue,
But you can not speck the truth

You watch poison change for wine
And watch sorrows given for joy
Who created the devil?
Who gives him life?
What a hall, swift like rain

MU Match Is On

2007-05-15T01:07:00.000+08:00

The Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) are ready to go ahead with the planned Manchester United match in Kuala Lumpur on July 27.

This is the wish of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi even if it means FAM could be facing serious consequences from the Asian and World football governing bodies.FAM deputy president Tengku Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah said although FAM risked being suspended for going ahead with the match against their wish, the decision was made in the country's interest, and the wishes of the public and the Prime Minister himself.

AFC president Mohamed Hammam who had slammed the Manchester United trip to Asia as unethical as it would clash with the Asian Cup hosted by Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia and Thailand, had urged the FAM to cancel the match that was scheduled for July 27.

MALAYSIA BOLEH, VMY 2007... yeah

Sampan Vs Battleship

2007-05-13T11:54:00.000+08:00

This is a sampan.

Sampans are generally used for fishing or transportation, in coastal areas or rivers. It is unusual for a sampan to sail far from land as they do not have the means to survive rough weather.

This is a battleship.

A battleship is a large, heavily-armored warship with a main battery consisting of the largest caliber of guns. It is larger, better-armed and better-armoured than cruisers and destroyers.

A battleship knocking down a sail, without using any of it's armour.
Poor sail, what is left for you?

70 Years Jail And 34 Strokes Of The Rotan For Serial Rapist

2007-05-11T01:07:00.000+08:00

A serial rapist, currently serving a 50-year jail sentence and 24 strokes of the rotan for raping and sodomising women and children, was slapped with another 20 years jail and 10 strokes by the Ampang Sessions Court today for raping and performing unnatural sex with a 15-year-old girl.

Finally, there is justice in this world!!

The war is over.

2007-05-11T00:22:00.000+08:00

In a battle, when you thought you smell victory !!!
A sudden ambush, to your colony what do you have left? You are defeated!!
Soldier killed, those who are still alive are demoralized.
The plans after the victory can now be scraped and throwaway. There is no purpose for it anymore.
Not only the battle is lost, but the entire war is over.

Defeated !!!
Demoralized !!!
Despair !!!

Game over

Blood Donation

2007-05-09T17:08:00.000+08:00

My first blood donation, it happened in UCSI after I was persuaded by Kin Yan.

Chee Seng, was persuaded by me to donate blood together. He ended up skipping class because of it.

Each of us was awarded with a cup of hot milo + a chocolate muffin.

Important !!!

Donors are discouraged from heavy exercise or lifting for several hours.
Plasma volumes will return to normal in around 24 hours, while red blood cells are replaced by bone marrow into the circulatory system within about 3-5 weeks, and lost iron replaced over 6-8 weeks.

This recovery process can be accelerated by eating foods high in complex carbohydrates, iron, and other trace minerals. Due to the timeframe required for iron replacement, donors are eligible to donate whole blood approximately eight to twelve weeks after the previous donation.

Benefits.

Donating blood may reduce the risk of heart disease for men and stimulate the generation of red blood cells.

The amount of toxic chemicals (e.g. mercury, pesticides, fire retardants) circulating in the blood stream is reduced by the amount contained in given blood.

Top up girls

2007-05-08T14:39:00.000+08:00

For a RM10 top-up for their handphones, some schoolgirls are willing to sell their bodies, Harian Metro reported.

These so-called “top up” girls, first get to know the men through the Internet chat room and then go out on dates with them.

She would ask her men friends to buy her a RM10 prepaid card for her phone before going out with them and then, later, taken to a “port” to have sex.

Usually, they take her to their rented houses. Sometimes, they just loiter around the city and watch movies.

They usually do this normally during the weekends and most of these guys are the mat motor type.

Wow !!! What is happening??

Scuba Diving

2007-05-07T16:30:00.000+08:00

One of the thing that I would like to have my hands on, would be Scuba Diving!!!

Malaysia is without doubt one of the best learning environments you can find. Malaysia offers excellent and especially convenient diving conditions, attracting thousands of divers every year. A perfect blend of truly Asia and international atmosphere, with a touch of adventure, warm waters, a tropical climate, beautiful beaches.

A browse from PADI IDC Malaysia, looks like it is not cheap to obtain a Open Water Diver certification card.

Who is poluting the river?

2007-05-05T17:44:00.000+08:00

Consumers will have to pay more for water in the future if they do not use water wisely as water treatment is getting to be an expensive business, Energy, Water and Communications Minister Datuk Seri Dr Lim Keng Yaik said

He was asked to comment on a newspaper report today on water consumption in Malaysia, which stated that Malaysians were using up to 500 litres of water per person daily.

"If we don't play our part to keep rivers clean, then the cost of water treatment will go up very high," he said.

But it was different from what it was reported earlier,...
What does Indah Water Konsortium do?

So who is poluting the river? ? ?

World's fastest walkers

2007-05-05T10:50:00.000+08:00

Pedestrians all over the world are moving faster than a decade ago, according to scientists who have conducted a study into the pace at which people walk.

Psychologists say walking speeds have increased by an average of 10 percent in the past 10 years.

Researchers in each city found a busy street with a wide pavement that was flat, free from obstacles and sufficiently uncrowded to allow people to walk at their maximum speed.
The speed of each city's walkers was then timed by a team researchers, armed with stopwatches.

They timed how long it took 35 men and women to walk along a 60-foot (18-meter) stretch of pavement, monitoring only adults who were on their own and ignoring those conducting mobile phone conversations or struggling with shopping bags.

The results of the study, headed by British psychologist Professor Richard Wiseman, were compared with similar results from a decade ago in an experiment carried out by American psychologist Professor Robert Levine, from California State University.

Here is a list, in order, of the cities ranked by the speeds at which people walk:
1) Singapore (Singapore)
2) Copenhagen (Denmark)
3) Madrid (Spain)
4) Guangzhou (China)
5) Dublin (Ireland)
6) Curitiba (Brazil)
7) Berlin (Germany)
8) New York (U.S.)
9) Utrecht (Netherlands)
10) Vienna (Austria)
11) Warsaw (Poland)
12) London (United Kingdom)
13) Zagreb (Croatia)
14) Prague (Czech Republic)
15) Wellington (New Zealand)
16) Paris (France)
17) Stockholm (Sweden)
18) Ljubljana (Slovenia)
19) Tokyo (Japan)
20) Ottawa (Canada)
21) Harare (Zimbabwe)
22) Sofia (Bulgaria)
23) Taipei (Taiwan)
24) Cairo (Egypt)

Gang-raped in carjack

2007-05-04T11:34:00.000+08:00

Last week I posted More and more rapist in Malaysia.

Today,
JOHOR BARU: A woman who was waiting in the car while her husband went to a toilet was held up at knife-point and taken on a terror ride, gang-raped and robbed.

Here is how it happen....,

The drama unfolded when the victim and her son had accompanied her husband to town on his way to work in Singapore at 4am several days ago.

The husband stopped the car, with his wife and son inside, at the petrol station and kept the engine running.

Soon after, the woman was shocked to see a man armed with a knife, knocking at her window demanding that she open the door.

The woman, fearing for her son's safety, complied and the suspect then drove the car to pick up his friend from a nearby area.

They blindfolded the woman and threatened to harm her son if she struggled.

The woman begged the men to let them go as she was pregnant but they instead took her to a secluded area and took turns to rape her.

This are an abstract from today's newpaper. As mention in the previous post, if they were caught. They should be given harsh punishment at least 20 years of jail plus 20 strokes of rotan.

Student caught recording Spider Man 3

2007-05-03T11:42:00.000+08:00

Cinema workers caught a 16 years old student recording the movie using his cellphone at GSC Gurney Plaza at 3pm on Tuesday.

His phone was seized and he was escorted out of the cinema. He was later handed over to the police.

It was learnt that the cinema workers were conducting routine checks on patrons via closed-circuit television (CCTV) when they spotted the student recording the movie.

The workers then requested the student to step out of the cinema and upon checking found that he had recorded the movie for more than an hour using his phone.

What a stupid thing to do. Recording movie using his cellphone? I believe that the movie recorded would not be any high quality movie. Patron's laughing voices + patron walking around the cinema would be recorded as well.

Hmmm......, may be there is a slight possibility that he was trying to impress his girlfriend by spicing things a little bit, trying his luck whether he would be caught recording in the cinema.

Cellphone ... RM 1,200
Movie ticket ... RM 12
Arrested for recording Spider Man 3 ... PRICELESS

4 months

2007-04-29T00:28:00.000+08:00

2007
4 months .............
What did you do for the past 4 months?
What are you going to do for the coming 4 months?
Here is my 4 months stories.

Last 4 months,Jan-Apr 2007
Final Year, 1st semester.
It was like hell, tonnes of assignments + projects to rush.
Just like in the open sea, it voilates and it is not always a smooth sailing journey.
Lucky there are a group of friends to help and support me. Thank you thank you.

Just realised that it's not difficult to become an 'ultimate actor'.
Had the opportunity to meet them.
Don't understand what is an 'ultimate actor'?
MY definition.
Those who treat you very kind, very helpful, very caring, but in the end it was just a show.
Spy on you, know your weakness and attack when you are at your weakest point.

Was slightly damaged but lucky was able to do some damage control.
This may sound evil, "Don't think you can get away with it so easy !!".

Next 4 months,May-Aug 2007
Final Year, Final Sem
yippie. will be completing my degree course soon.

Future 4 months, Oct 2007 - Jan 2008
Industrial Training, but I am allowed to start work if there is company who is willing to hire me.

Women's town

2007-04-26T21:54:00.000+08:00

The 2.3-square-km Longshuihu village in the Shuangqiao district of Chongqing municipality, also known as "women's town," was based on the local traditional concept of "women rule and men obey".

Traditional women dominate and men have to be obedient in the areas of Sichuan province and Chongqing, and now they are using it as an idea to attract tourists and boost tourism.

When tour groups enter the town, female tourists would play the dominant role when shopping or choosing a place to stay, and a disobedient man would be punished by "kneeling on an uneven board" or washing dishes in restaurant.

More and more rapist in Malaysia

2007-04-26T14:50:00.000+08:00

Teen alleges first date rape

All those are an abstract from today's newpaper. Rapist should be given harsh punishment at least 20 years of jail plus 20 strokes of rotan.

What does Indah Water Konsortium do?

2007-04-25T12:50:00.000+08:00

How much are we paying Indah Water Konsortium Sdn Bhd [IWK] for clearing up the sewage tank at our homes? And why does we pay them for? Cleaning the waste water?

From what it was reported by the Natural Resources and Environment Minister Datuk Seri Azmi Khalid, it seems like the IWK is the main polluter of rivers in Peninsular Malaysia.

91% of pollution of rivers in the country is from inadequately-treated sewage.

Thus the "Love Our Rivers" campaign launched by the government more than 10 years ago is officially certified that it is a failure.

Lets sit back and think for a minute. We pay IWK to clean the sewage, but it was reported that they are poluting the river with inadequately-treated sewage. So.............. meaning that we paid IWK to polute the river? We are STUPID Malaysian, paying someone else to polute the river. We can just polute it by ourself.

What happen to the money? Where has it gone too?

Cheap tickets up for grabs

Semester Break

2007-04-25T02:27:00.000+08:00

Having my Final Semester Break. Another semester in UCSI and I would be out of it. Can't wait till that day arrived.

Well since the semester started in Jan, seldom have the chance to loiter around friends. Today post semester celebration with kin yan, kok hock a.k.a (fei lo) for more than 14 hrs by loitering in shopping complexes and playgrounds. Eat when we are hungry, walk till we are exhausted, then eat again, no matter what time is it. Finally the day end with a beer session at the children's playground with kin yan, fei lo, albert, kok foo and ling siong.

Yup, it was tiring especially after months of suffering, but it was fun. Sorry ya no photo for this post.

KL-S'pore high-speed train ??

2007-04-23T08:46:00.000+08:00

There is a bullet train project at 300 km/h proposed to link Kuala Lumpur and Singapore, proposed by current high(er) speed rail (160 km/h) operator KLIA Express YTL, which links Kuala Lumpur with the KLIA. It would be the first transborder high speed line outside of Europe if built.

The distance between Kuala Lumpur and Singapore City is 325km. If the Velaro E is used, which has a top speed of 350km/h; travel time will be reduced to 90 minutes, compared with 4 hours of highway drive, 7 hours currently by standard rail, 2 hours of flight including commuting to and from airport, check in and boarding. Talks of a Bangkok Singapore line spanning the 3 nations have been suggested previously, though no action has been taken.

This is way faster than the previously mention KL-Ipoh fast train travelling time.

Two students caught performing oral sex in the school toilet

2007-04-22T18:27:00.000+08:00

In Kangar, two prefects a Form Three girl and a Form Five boy were apparently caught red-handed in the men’s toilet last week by several students during recess.The school’s parent-teacher association wants the state Education Department to look into the case and the overall discipline problem in the school.

One of the parents said the act was also recorded on a camera phone. The image was later forwarded to several people.The parent, who declined to be named, said he was concerned over the latest incident.

What is happening in school students these days?

The news was taken from:

KL-Ipoh Fast Train Service

2007-04-22T02:17:00.000+08:00

A fast train service between Kuala Lumpur and Ipoh will begin early next year after the Rawang-Ipoh double-tracking project is fully completed by yearend.Transport Minister Datuk Seri Chan Kong Choy said the travelling time under the new service would be two hours 15 minutes as the train had to stop at several stations along the route such as in Tanjung Malim, Slim River, Tapah, Kampar and Batu Gajah.

When the Rawang-Ipoh electrified double track project is fully completed, a new practice may emerge where people working in Kuala Lumpur will opt to live in suburban areas like Tanjung Malim or even Ipoh and commute using a train.

He said this situation would not be impossible because it happened in Seremban where many of its residents used KTM Komuter to go to work in Kuala Lumpur daily.

But to me, I don't think it can be called as fast train service. It still not enough, may be if the travelling time is cut short to 45 minutes, then it can be call FAST train service.

Sexual 'theme park' opens in London

2007-04-21T12:56:00.000+08:00

An adults-only sexual "theme park" has opened in London, promising to help visitors improve their sex lives.

Just around the corner from Soho, London's red-light district, the attraction in the Trocadero entertainment center features interactive exhibits exploring aspects of sexual relationships ranging from flirting to fetishes. They are confident that visitors will walk away with tips to enhance their sex life and relationships

Several cities around the world — including Paris, Berlin, New York, Los Angeles, Amsterdam, and Barcelona — are home to erotic museums. Typically, they exhibit everything from pornography to high-minded paintings exploring local sexual attitudes and culture.

Booster Blades?

2007-04-21T10:58:00.000+08:00

Booster Blades.

It is like a two in one item, the Booster Blades are worn like skates but pedal to propel forward.

The skate boot is mounted on a hinged frame. When you lift your foot, the wheels move closer together; when you push it down again they move apart and a drive belt turns the back wheel. As you lift your foot again, the wheels move together again and the drive belt re-winds ready for the next stroke. In this way, the up and down pedalling motion propels the rider forwards, building up fast speeds with little effort.

There is a brake operated by tilting the foot back on the heel, which can be operated at any time, even if you are half way through the pedalling motion. There are even plans for a mechanism for changing gear, which the inventor is hoping to introduce on later models.

College student loses RM148,000

2007-04-21T00:48:00.000+08:00

A college student lost all her college fees totalling RM148,000 to a syndicate which told her that she had won RM3.3mil in two Internet lucky draws.

The 20-year-old student first received a call on March 20 from a woman telling her that she had won RM120,000 in a Hong Kong Turf Club online draw.

But in order to collect her winnings, she was told to deposit RM46,000 as insurance and processing fees.

She then transferred the amount into an overseas bank account on March 30. Later the day, she received another call from a man informing her that she had won another RM3.2mil in a bonus draw.

She managed to raise another RM102,000 which was the fees for the whole duration of her course. The money was then deposited into the same account on Wednesday.

After not hearing anything from the callers, she realised she had been cheated and made a police report the next day.

I wonder how she obtained such a huge amount of money.

Virginia Tech Shootings

2007-04-18T00:48:00.000+08:00

The gunman suspected of carrying out the Virginia Tech massacre that left 33 people dead was identified on Tuesday as a English major whose creative writing was so disturbing that he was referred to the school's counseling service.

News reports also said that he may have been taking medication for depression, that he was becoming increasingly violent and erratic, and that he left a note in his dorm in which he railed against "rich kids," "debauchery" and "deceitful charlatans" on campus.

Cho Seung-Hui, a 23 year's old senior, arrived in the United States as boy from South Korea in 1992 and was raised in suburban Washington, D.C., officials said. He was living on campus in a different dorm from the one where Monday's bloodbath began.

Police and university officials offered no clues as to exactly what set him off on the deadliest shooting rampage in modern U.S. history.

Expressing the nation's sorrow, President Bush ordered flags flown at half staff on Tuesday in honor of those killed in the nation's deadliest shooting spree.

This is not the first time shooting rampage were report in the U.S, it makes us wonder why the incident may happen at the first place.

Here is a list of the victims:
