Saya ingin mencadangkan agar semua sektor mengubah waktu bekerja dari 5 hari bekerja kepada 4 hari bekerja dan 3 hari hujung minggu berdasarkan justifikasi berikut:
a) Memberi ruang kepada penganut agama Islam untuk ke masjid awal sedikit pada hari Jumaat dan penganut Kristian ke Gereja pada hari Ahad.
b) Work Life Balance. 5 - 2 tak berapa balance kan? Sekurangnya - kurangnya 4 - 3 agak balance.
c) Less travelling, less pollution. Less carbon released, less electricity used in offices.
d) Memberi peluang kepada lebih peluang percutian. Boosting local tourism. (Biasanya 3 hari orang cuti di Malaysia sahaja).
e) More shopping time. Boosting local economy.
f) Memberi peluang untuk orang mengutamakan perkara lain selain bekerja seperti berehat, beriadah, beribadah dan sebagainya. Important for mental sanity.
g) Kalau perlu, tambahlah 2 jam every day from Monday to Thursday. Tapi perlukah?
h) Memberi ruang untuk orang lain membuat aktiviti masyarakat. Too much emphasize given to office work. Community work is equally important.
i) Orang Sales pun untung. Walaupun mereka tak dapat cuti, tetapi more days off, diaorang boleh jumpa client during their off day.
j) Lebih banyak orang travel atas jalanraya KL, lebih pemarah jadinya mereka. So a day off boleh soothkan.
k) Boleh exercise. Sekarang tak cukup masa. (hahaha)
l) All extra unfinished work boleh buat kat rumah sebenarnya. We have the technology. Even now pun, some of us brings our work back home and do it on the weekend. Well, at least, we are HOME.
m) Happy worker is more productive. That's fact. Where did i get that fact from? I dont know, it must be somewhere. Mesti dah ramai orang buat research on this. Go and find it if you want. At least i know i am more productive when i am happy.
n) Performance should always be based on output and not hours input. There is no point putting hours but without input. Waste electricity.
o)Seriously, is life all about work? Kita bekerja untuk hidup ke atau hidup untuk bekerja?
p) Feel free to add your justifications.

Minda Celaru : Kg Semarah Padi
Mula-mula aku nak ucap tahniah kepada Melissa Saila and the gang kerana berjaya mereka satu cereka yang sangat sempoi. Pertama kali dilayar tvkan pada Hari Raya Pertama 2012 yang lalu. Baru-baru ini ada rerun di saluran yang sama.
Bayangkan kalau satu opis disumpah marah marah selama setahun. Mau meriah seluruh opis dengan suara-suara tinggi walauon ngajak teman seopis minum kopi. " JOMLA!!!! MINUM KOPI!!!" Cool...
Kisah secara mudah apabila Musalmah yang memakan cempedak Tok Pengulu Siak, ditangkap dan dihukum bunuh. Akibat rayuan demi rayuan tidak diendahkan maka Musalmah menyumpah seluruh penduduk kampung Semarah Padi sentiasa marah-marah dalam kehidupan harian mereka. Musalmah baran sebab beliau asyik kena marah dari ditangkap sehingga ke tepi pantai. Kisah ini dikiaskan pada hari Jumaat 4 Safar 1300 hijrah / 15 Disember 1882 sehingga 20 tahun selepas itu.
Muzik latar seperti kisah-kisah filem 50an. Paling hebat lakonan ialah dari Shiela Mambo. Ngam betoi suara dan marahnya. Build up karekter mula dimakan sumpah adalah seperti klip ini.
Hanya satu bahasa asing dituturkan sepanjang kisah ini - shortcut. Itu pun rasanya pengarah melepaskan scene berkenaan untuk penonton.

Alvin Tan : 8 REASONS WHY LIVING IN MALAYSIA BEATS LIVING IN SINGAPORE
Having lived in Malaysia and Singapore for at least 7 years each, I thought that I would pen down some glaring differences between the two living environments:
1. Freedom and Lawlessness
Law enforcers are not only lax in Malaysia but also easily swayed with money, so you can avoid them most of the time and pay them off, should you get confronted with them. This situation basically means that the law does not apply to you, as long as you have enough money, which relegates the law to nothing more than a mere cost of living.
I value freedom a whole damn lot; there is no amount of security and comfort that I would trade for a high level of freedom: the freedom to speed, park illegally, litter, trespass, indulge in anti-social behaviour, etc. Freedom is crucial for happiness, period. Of course, the lack of law enforcement also means that your own rights may be compromised, but complaining about that is just being overly-dependent on the government to secure your own well-being.
Crimes and infringement of our rights in general only happen because we lack skills of self-perpetuation, such as negotiation, situational awareness, and street-smartness. The correct way to address the problem is to develop self-preservation skills, not cry to the government for protection. You will be a stronger person as well, and more like an independent, hardened adult, not like little children in a school who go reporting to authority anytime anything small happens. Take the law into your own hands.
2. Cost of Living
Relative to the average wages of both countries, the cost of living in both countries is high. However, given how strong the Singapore Dollar is compared to the Malaysian Ringgit, Malaysia works out to be much cheaper, if you can put yourself in a situation to earn foreign currency regardless of where you live. In other words, if you can earn US Dollars or Euros either in Malaysia or Singapore (e.g. by owning a software company serving international customers), Malaysia will feel like heaven for you. Malaysia has a lot of bullshit going on, but consider the fact that the cost of living in Singapore is not 20% or 30% higher; it is 200% or 300% higher than that in Malaysia.
There are also peculiar costs in Singapore that make no sense: S$500,000 99-year leasehold shoeboxes in the air and S$80,000 license to own a car (not the car itself), just to name a few. A very important fact of life is that you can truly own a house and car (no time limit whatsoever imposed by HDB or COEs) with literally less than RM100,000, or S$40,000. Anyone knows having a car at your disposal grants you an uncanny freedom that most public transport commuters can never understand.
3. Choice of Living Environments
The entire island of Singapore is the same shit over and over again: HDB flats, heartland hubs, private condominiums, shopping malls, office buildings, night spots, schools, and the occasional park/nature reserve/beach. If you hate that, tough luck, buddy. In Malaysia, if you are sick of the shitty traffic and rude people of Kuala Lumpur, move north or south to quieter suburban or outskirt areas. If you are sick of city life, move to one of the beach towns. If you are sick of the swelteringly-hot weather, go upwards and live in Fraser’s Hill or Cameron Highlands. Sometimes, the further you move away from your comfort zone, the more it feels like a different country altogether. Using the same logic, USA, Canada, and Australia should offer a greater choice of living environments than both Malaysia and Singapore combined.
4. Diversity
Diversity comes from within, but, if we define diversity as the observable differences among people and things, Malaysia is more diverse than Singapore, and it is the little things that make the most difference. For instance, Chinese, Malay, and Indian dialects actually survive in Malaysia (not just Mandarin, Standard Malay, and Tamil), depending on which part of Malaysia you go to. There are definitely more things to do than shopping, working/studying, and food-hunting in Malaysia. You can even send your children to different types of schools: vernacular schools, independent schools, private schools, home-schooling, real specialised technical schools (none of that “ITE” umbrella nonsense), or, hell, even the School of Hard Knocks, since Malaysia is not exactly a safe playground for kids.
Malaysia is more interesting, less monotonous, and interesting environments tend to produce interesting people. People who have lived in Malaysia and then went on to live in Singapore for an extended period of time eventually become more one-dimensional in their personalities over time, and vice-versa.
5. Living vs. Surviving
Both people in Malaysia and Singapore live hectic, fast-paced lives, at least if you compare the urban areas of both countries. In Singapore, almost everything is done for the money: doing well in school, doing well in the workplace, not driving out during certain hours of the day, and even marriage and child birth (since you get to buy HDB flats and get baby bonuses for getting married and having children, respectively). You know something is wrong with a country when the government has to pay its people to have sex and bang each other. People in Singapore are too busy surviving to actually live. It takes a lot of effort to even have a low standard of living in Singapore.
In Malaysia, if you are lucky enough to inherit a small home and pay off a motorcycle early on in your life, you can literally grow your own crops, hunt, or fish and survive day by day. A lot of villagers do just that. In Singapore, if you ask people to name two things that they do regularly outside of work/school that they consider hobbies, you would get a lot of blank faces. They are too busy working and studying to have free time to even pamper themselves by doing things they like or even think about their actual dreams (that would be too audacious). The sad irony is that a lot of people in Malaysia work less and play more and still make way more money or do better in their academic pursuits.
6. Empirical Happiness
Both people in Malaysia and Singapore have to put with an awful amount of bullshit. In Singapore, you have semi-competent yet greedy politicians in charge, making life a living hell for everyone with price hikes, non-sensible immigration policies, and even more new laws to curb personal freedoms or scare people into voluntarily surrendering their freedoms (CPF withdrawal age, anyone?). In Malaysia, we have lazy, blood-sucking, idiotic, racist politicians with no sense of good governance whatsoever, hopelessly-inefficient everything (bureaucracy, legal system, public transportation, education), and a lot of social crime. Empirically, however, people are complaining less and smiling/laughing/joking more in Malaysia.
People in Malaysia also commit suicide not as often as people in Singapore. People walk slower in Malaysia, and you can even see people sitting down in coffee shops for literally the whole day just chatting happily away in Malaysia. My personal experience also revealed that it is much easier building rapport with a stranger in Malaysia than in Singapore (in Malaysia, just call the other person “boss” or “bro” or “leng lui” for starters; you cannot do that to strangers in Singapore – they are too damn stuck-up). In short, people in Malaysia have not forgotten how to relax and take things easy. Try going out one day in Orchard Road and in 1 Utama Shopping Centre, look at the first 100 faces that you come across, and then compare the proportion of smiling faces, and you will feel what I feel.
7. Social Discrimination
Malaysia is known for its xenophobia and racism, no doubt, but so is Singapore – to a larger extent. In Singapore, you get discriminated for virtually anything: for being Malay/Indian (jobs with Mandarin literacy as a prerequisite), for being a neighbourhood school student (scholarship applications), for being an academically-weak student (Special/Express/Normal streams), for being a fat student (TAF Club), for being an able-bodied Singaporean male (National Service), for being a local tourist (Singaporean casinos), for being an MOE foreign scholar (the Sun Xu incident), etc. “Meritocracy” my ass.
8. The Focus on Numbers
Singapore is all about the numbers and only the numbers: GPA, CAP, L1R5, PSLE T-Score, GDP growth rate, GDP per capita, median income, net worth, crime rates, and even IPPT timings. People in Singapore are not bothered by anything that cannot be measured by a number: creativity, music/art, quality of life, and happiness (fuck the happiness index crap). It is a sick, toxic culture; people who do not perform well in these numbers are treated like dirt. I have personally received the better end of Singapore’s brand of favouritism in secondary school, and I felt sick to the core. If kindness from others to me is driven by admiration of my CAP/L1R5/whatever useless number, you can stick that kindness straight up your ass.
The only reason that Malaysians would choose to work and live in Singapore is the higher wages across the causeway. Their modus operandi has always been to work long enough there to save enough Singapore Dollars, and then come back to spend the money like a king. We already have our own clean, green, efficient, and economically-successful (and, hell, even Chinese-dominated) island-state; it is called Penang. What do you think about living in Malaysia as compared to living in Singapore?

The government cannot regulate love
A young Singapore man has appealed publicly to Minister in Prime Minister Office Grace Fu during a townhall meeting recently to stop foreign men from ‘stealing’ Singaporean women from local men.
During the Q&A session, he complained that Singapore men are losing out in the race to the altar because local women are increasingly favoring foreign men.
His complaint drew a round of laughter from the audience, but he silenced them with a glaring look:
“I think we shouldn’t laugh. It is an important problem and we need to solve it,” he thundered.
He added that foreign men tend to enjoy higher pay and better perks which give them an unfair advantage in the competition for Singaporean women’s heart.
Unfortunately, there is nothing the government can do about this, he was told.
“The government cannot regulate love,” Ms Fu said.
Kekekeh.. I think this young chap is so desperate to find a girlfriend. He could be successful in his career but his career to woo flirt women memang ke laut lah. Nak mencari pasangan hidup pun kena minta tolong kerajaan ker? Oh kemonlah!
A bull name - Megatron (Manso)
'Megatron' bull fetches top price
Posted
A bull named FBC Megatron Manso has sold for a top price of $60,000 at this year's Brahman Week bull sale in Rockhampton in central Queensland.
It is the largest bull sale in Australia and has attracted more than 200 vendors from around Australia.
Will Fenech from Fenech Brahmans at Craigleigh, near Wowan, south-west of Rockhampton, says it is bitter sweet to see his bull fetch the top price.
"We took him to [the] Marlborough Brahman Feature show and he won grand champion there and supreme interbreed," he said.
"He did really well at Beef Week.
"We would've loved to have kept the bull but we had a lot of interest in him, so we decided to sell but we kept a semen share."
Mr Fenech says he was surprised his bull sold for the top price.
"He's an IVF embryo - we've sold three half brothers to him, two other $60,000 bulls and another [for $35,000]," he said.
"My daughter broke him in February last year and she showed him at junior beef last year and a lot of people have watched this bull in progress with his growing pattern."
The sale wraps up today.
- steady Mr Will Fenech. What a breed kekeh...kehkeh... $60,000/7 = $8571.50 ( RM 21,428.60*/ 1 bahagian) Kalau nak buat korbanlah.
*AUSD 1 = RM 2.45

TEMASEK TIADA TELUR ITIK
WHY DUCKS EGGS ARE NOT SOLD IN SINGAPORE
Duck eggs were once used to cook familiar local favourites such as char kuay teow, carrot cake and oyster omelette. Owner of Hill Street char kuay teow, Mr Ng Chang Siang who had previously used duck eggs in his recipe says his customers prefer it as it has a richer taste and gives it a more ‘nian’ (sticky) texture.
But as prices of duck eggs became more expensive and supply turned scarce, he like many of his peers, resorted to cheaper chicken eggs over the years.
The reason for this price difference, says Mr Ong Siew Pang, former Chairman of the Kheng Keow Coffee Merchants Restaurant & Bar-Owners Association, dates back to the eggs’ origin around the 60s. Mr Ong explains that in the past, most fresh duck eggs were imported from Vietnam. During the Vietnam War, there was a shortage of duck eggs which then led to a price hike. As a result, many hawkers that were originally using fresh duck eggs in their recipe substituted them with chicken eggs.
Another reason for its unavailability here is because no approval has been granted to any supplier for the import and sale of fresh duck eggs in Singapore, according to egg supplier Mr Tan Kian Soon of Go Market. Mr Tan says the sale of fresh duck eggs in Singapore had already ceased way before he entered the business around 13 years ago.
When asked why, the Àgri-Food & Veterinary Authority (AVA) replied that they “have not received any applications to export fresh duck eggs to Singapore”. AVA is the government body that regulates the import of food and has strict criteria for hygiene, and safety. All meat, meat products, eggs and egg products to be imported into Singapore have to come from sources approved by them.
Mr William Ho, owner of the Farmart Centre thinks that the reason why fresh duck eggs cannot be found in Singapore might be due to avian flu. He elaborates that duck farming requires both wet and dry lands for breeding. He thinks that this makes them more susceptible to water and air borne diseases and as well as avian flu. This makes it an uphill task for duck egg farms to get accredited.
“In open-duck farming, wild birds that may carry avian flu virus can come into contact with the farmed ducks. When this happens, the farm ducks will also contract the virus,” says Associate Professor Vincent Chow from the Department of Microbiology, National University of Singapore. There are two different kinds of duck farming: open duck farming (not enclosed) and closed system duck farming with proper biosecurity (enclosed, without contact with outside birds).
Prof Vincent adds that in general, ducks reared via the open-duck farming system are more susceptible to avian flu as compared to their close-farmed duck counterparts. Chicken egg farm is an example of closed system farming. However, he also says that once the ducks are infected with the influenza virus, they will fall very sick easily and eventually die. Hence, the chances of them producing the eventual diseased eggs are very low.
Yet there are no suppliers applying to be accredited with AVA as duck egg suppliers.

BOLEH UBAH DAN DATEH, DATAY, DAKPAN DAN DOPAN
 |
| gambar hiasan mata sahaja :
Ada siapa siapa ingat masa kita kecil-kecil dulu, yaitu tahun-tahun 70an dan 80an juga 90an akan memoriam masa pi mengaji Jahama (Juz 'Amma) atau Muqaddam dan juga mengaji Al-Quran? Selain daripada main aci ligan seperti main tuju kasut, main police sentry, main aci sembunyi sehingga benar-benar disorok jin nakal atau pun main guli atau mata kucing? Ada tak satu kalimat yang sangat membezakan darjat kita dengan kawan-kawan semasa mengaji?
Sebelum itu, suka jua aku perturunkan bagaimana guru-guru dulu mengajaq kami kenal huruf Al-Quran. Berikut dipetik dari FB kawan aku hhheehe :
"Alif Dateh Aaa, Alif Bawah Eee, Alif Dopan Uuu..Aaa Eee Uuu..."
Bila jam tok guru panggil untuk checking baca ok ke tak, jam tu la yang paling leceh. Ibarat amalan manusia penentu untuk meintas titian Sirat, ada kawan-kawan yang sekali jalan saja terus lancaq. Ada yang kena ulang sampai tok guru bangun pi basuh muka. Punya la benak ati ahahaha. Gitulah manusia, ada yang mudah belajaq, ada yang payah boleh dan ada yang buat payah segala hal.
Bila kita dah tamat sesi depan tok guru, balik masok detail, mula la kawan2 kiri kanan tanya ;
" Hang BOLEH UBAH dak? "
Ok, aku nak tambah sedikit pasal "Alif Dateh Aaa, Alif Bawah Eee, Alif Dopan Uuu..Aaa Eee Uuu..."
Dari mana gamoknye datang kalimat 'Dateh' ni. Ini kalimat ini tiada diejakan sebelum ini. Hanya tradisi lisan zaman berzaman. Nyata sebutan di atas tu dari kawasan Negeri Sembilan dan sekitar. 'Dopan' tu mengesahkanlah heheh.
Kalau kawasan utara khususnya Perlis, Kedah, Pulau Pinang ada beza sikit nyebut kalimat ini :
"Alif Datay Aaa, Alif Bawah Eee, Alif Dakpan Uuu..Aaa Eee Uuu..."
Mudah cerita, bahawa ada sumber menyatakan ulama-ulama besar dari Pagar Ruyung yang membawa kaedah mengaji muqaddam ke Tanah Melayu. akibat dari lidah Minangkabau yang tebal, maka penerimaan sebutan kalimat ini diterima secara tanpa bicara di kawasan Tanah Melayu selepas itu. Namun, ada perubahan minor bergantung kepada daerah penutur. Itu yang bunyi lain sikit di utara Tanah Melayu.
Nak mudah gini :
Di Atas / Di Ataih (U) / Dateh (N) -asal 'Di Ateh' / Datay (U - gaya laju heheh)
Di Hadapan / Depan / Dopan (N) / Dakpan (U )
Di Bawah - semua sama
(N) - loghat Negeri Sembilan
Tempat lain lagu mana? Tak sempat nak beresearch sakan. Just to share.

PTD drowns during training
BITTER ENDING. Training programme for future diplomatic and administrative officer turns into a tragedy.
PEKAN: A 35-year-old diplomatic and administrative officer (PTD) trainee drowned during a water confidence training at the Force 136 Camp of the Territorial Army Regiment 505 at Sungai Miang here yesterday afternoon.
Aidy Hasni Abu Hassan, from Kuala Lumpur was attempting to cross a irrigation canal using a rope about 2.30pm when he suddenly lost his grip and submerged into the water which was about six metres deep.
Point to ponder from my ' once in the blue moon' guest writer. Terima kasih kerana benarkan tertulis di sini. Thank you Kapten Malaysia!!!
To my Comrades
In certain parts of the world, the civil service is defined as the administrators in the executive body of a country. In Malaysia, as in Arcticle 132 of the Constitution defines the executive body consisting of the judiciary, administrators, teachers, police, public health personnel (to a certain extent) and armed forces to name a few major groups. This is just a background story.
In light of the recent death of Aldy Hasni Abu Hasan as a result of drowning during a training exercise, focus has been brought upon the civil service and its training methods. Studies have found that burial processions are supposed to be more for psychological reasons than religious. It is a procession where family and friends say farewell to the departed, to pay their last respects and to bring some form of closure to the loved ones.
However, the psychological effect only applies to the "natural and timely" deaths. In the case of Aldy Hasni, his drowning was an untimely and sudden death. As in all untimely and sudden deaths, it brings about more questions than answers could provide. There is anger, there is shock, there is disbelief. Everyone tries to make sense of what happened. There are many diverse reactions - there are those wanting to know why it happened, how it happened, whom to blame. This is a natural course of reactions as human try to bring closure to such tragic events and we cannot avoid such reactions.
As to why it happened. I believe that people accepts that it is God's will and the natural order of life. There are no two ways about it. We live and we die. The only difference is time - when do we leave this world.
As to how can this happen during a training exercise. This is for investigators to perform their duties and provide information.
As to whom is to blame. I personally never liked this question as i believe everyone is to be blamed. So i will not go there.
The other question and probably my point to this whole thing is the question of why should Malaysia's administrative corp require forms of military exercise. It is ludicrous to the common sense doesnt it. Malaysia is a blessed peaceful and properous nation. This is the argument that i read and found very common in the newspapers, blogs and social media.
To answer this, one point has to be made very clear - no one in their right psychological mind wants another person to die. On to the point, one has to take into account that the job scope of administrators is to administer the government machinery regardless of time. This means that the government has to function whether there is rain or shine, peace or war. This means that whatever time of day or night, there must be a functioning government. There must be security, there must be schools, there must be health care, there must be public infrastructure etc. Even in war torn countries with despot leaders there is a functioning government that runs all these services. The administrators must be prepared for all eventualities. For example, The National Security Council (MKN) has ruling 20, 21 for emergency situations for natural disasters like flood, famine etc. The ones that coordinates are the administrators and they have the power to administer. The administrators are provided legal power during an emergency or natural disaster. The administrators must be in the middle of the situation providing administrative leadership. In times of war, when all shops closes down, when people are asked to stay in their homes..army/police trucks will bring adminsitrators to their offices to do their jobs. Just because Malaysia is peaceful and prosperous, does not mean that administrators should not prepare for the worst and hope for the best. Training with the army, police and fire brigade allows the administrator a practical insight into what the army, police and fire brigade does. The familiarisation of these services would enhance the administrators decision making in an emergency. Hence, the need for some form of military training. Btw, for those who knows me, do i really look like Captain Malaysia? So dont be worried that Malaysia's administrators being war mongers and trained to be one. I dont look like one. We are just trained to be familiarised with certain aspects of security for the purpose of being prepared during an emergency.
The points that i make should not take away that a life has been lost and that we should make a point to learn from the lessons of Aldy Hasni's untimely death. I wish his family well, i hope that his family is taken care of, and i hope that some form of counselling in provided to the other trainees who are affected by his death from Unit Psikologi dan Kaunseling JPA.
