Pagi ini
Tak ingin aku berandai
Hari ini
Macam semalam
Pagi bertemu malam

Dongeng apa
Mimpi bertandang
Bercerita sepi
Tanpa diundang
Melakar maya
Menyapa rasa
Mengungkit cinta
Mengajak memburu rindu

Ingin juga saya ketahui tentang perkara dibawah, jika ada sesiapa yang dapat beri penerangan lanjut.
~~~~~~

DILARANG MEMERANGI PEMERINTAH ISLAM YANG ZALIM

Nabi bersabda, “Akan dilantik para pemimpin yang kamu setujui (kebaikan sebahagian perbuatan mereka) dan kamu akan membantah (kejahatan sebahagian perbuatan mereka).

Sesiapa yang membenci perbuatan munkar pemimpin maka dia terlepas dari dosa, sesiapa yang membantah maka dia selamat dari dosa, namun yang berdosa, sesiapa yang redha dan menuruti perbuatan munkar tersebut”.

Sahabat bertanya: “Tidakkah boleh kami perangi mereka?”
Jawab baginda: “Tidak! selagi mana mereka melakukan solat”.
(Riwayat Muslim).

Ad-Dawudi pula menyebut: yang menjadi pegangan para ulamak mengenai para pemerintah yang zalim ialah sekiranya mereka boleh dipecat tanpa sebarang fitnah dan kezaliman, maka wajib dipecat, jika tidak, maka wajib bersabar.
(rujukan Fath al-Bari oleh Ibn Hajr al-Asqalani m.s. 498/jilid 14 cetakan dar al-Fikr, Beirut)

Dilarang umat Islam dari keluar bersenjata memerangi para pemimpin Islam yang fasik atau zalim sekiranya soal fasik atau zalim itu hanya terbatas kepada persoalan peribadi pemimpin sahaja tanpa melibatkan persoalan dasar kepada ajaran islam.

Renungan

2011-08-04T11:31:00.003+08:00

Hari ini, dan sejak beberapa hari kebelakangan ini, saya suka merenung pengertian ayat-ayat ini:
2:247 "....Allah memberikan pemerintahan kepada siapa yang dikehendakiNya..."
3:26 "Katakanlah, ya Allah Yang Mempunyai Kerajaan, Engkau berikan kerajaan kepada siapa yang Engkau kehendaki, dan Engkau cabut kerajaan daripada siapa yang Engkau kehendaki...."

Serta jawapan Rasulullah saw kepada Baihara bin Firas, yang mengajak Baginda bekerjasama, dan bila menang, minta agar kuasa diberikan kepada beliau, "Allah memberikan kuasa kepada siapa yang Dia Mahu" (Muhammad The Messenger - Naeem Siddique)

Trust

Reduce the terms for the trust, there will be less hurdle for relationship, love and marriage.

Judgement

2011-08-01T10:14:00.000+08:00

Being "non-judgmental"? We are judging with every sentence that we write . . . it is a matter of a "judgement on what?"

Manggis vs Durian

Demonstrasi adalah fitrah manusia bila tak puas hati. Siapa pun memerintah, demonstrasi aman perlu dibenarkan. Di London contohnya, memerhatikan demonstrasi melibatkan jutaan manusia, polis memberi kerjasama. Tiada provokasi. Ekonomi depa tak merosot sebab demonstrasi. Tak der pula kita lihat iklan kat tv supaya rakyat jgn sertai demonstrasi. Tak der dakwaan bhw demo tu haram. Tingkah laku gomen dan budak2 pencacai kerajaan dan tukang spin depa (Man, hang pencacai depa ka?), amat desperate dan memalukan. Bagi jer la, depa nak buat demo. Bagi laluan khusus. Polis jaga keselamatan depa dan oghang ramai.. Tok sah nak spin2. Demo ttg Palestin tak der masalah pun kecuali bila pihak keselamatan buat kacau. Demonstrasi umat Islam terhadap kekejaman Israel di UK sentiasa mendapat kerjasama polis UK meskipun Britian adalah penyokong kuat rejim Israel. Harap2 kerajaan dan juak2 serta spinner depa buka minda dan melihat di luar tempurung sempit.

At least they allowed demonstration that went against their stand. The issue here is not about repenting or not but about allowing demonstration by their people and the people who wanted to demo - their citizens or not. How many malaysians and other Muslim who were non UK citizens were there? Tak der pula tuduhan bahawa ianya di dalang oleh anasir asing. Pokoknya, our government and their supporters are still not politically matured. Terkongkong bawah tempurung sempit though have been exposed yrs in foreign countries. Pity them

Those demonstrations would never affect the relationships between the UK and Israel. They r too strong to be affected. Negeri asing pun tak berani nak dalangkan.... but does give +ve image to UK. Hence the policy.

Di Malaysia ada sejarah dalang datang ke Malaysia dan buat kenyataan lawan kerajaan yang ada tanpa ada hormat. Even Singapore is playing its role somewhere. Orang2 yang pernah merintah tu tahu amat.

Bukti adanya Allah adalah adanya alam ini. Allah mencipta alam semesta ini dengan ilmuNya, ilmu sains, ilmu logik. Itulah tanda kekuasaan Allah, menciptakan segalanya dengan perancangan yang teliti. Setiap ilmu adalah berkaitan, kerana Allah menjadikan ilmu itu bersepadu, satu. Manusialah yang mengelaskan mengikiut taksonomi.

HM Hadi, saya setuju 'repetition develops skills'. 'Practice makes fluent, not perfect'. Tetapi dalam hal matematik ini, kita perlu develop kefahaman bukan skil sahajal, skill kalau tak buat lama boleh hilang skill.

Fauzi Shaffie >> ‎Misdan Adam: "practice makes fluent", also true is "wrong practice, you may become fluently wrong", "perfectly wrong'. So, asking students to repeat such things, which they may do wrong again (as in the case of the above students, true), will reinforce the wrong method used.

Soutul Hurriah - Lyrics and translation

2011-03-12T11:27:00.002+08:00

نزلت وقلت انا مش راجع
وكتبت بدمي في كل شارع
سمًعنا اللي ما كانش سامع
و اتكسًرت كل الموانع
سلاحنا كان احلامنا
و بُكره واضح قدامنا
من زمان بنستنى
بندور مش لاقيين مكانا
*****
في كل شارع في بلادي .. الحريه بتنادي
رفعنا راسنا في السماء
و الجوع مبقاش بيهمنا
اهم حاجه حقنا
و نكتب تاريخنا بدمنا
و كنت واحد مننا بلاش ترغي و تقولنا
نمشي و نسيب حلمنا
بطل تقول كلمة انا
في كل شارع في بلادي .. الحريه بتنادي

*************************

I went out & i said I will not return
And I wrote with my blood in every street
we make those who did not listen to us hear us
we broke all barriers
Our weapon was our dreams
And tomorrow become clear Ahead
Long ago and we are waiting…
Searching for Place for us
In all streets of the country freedom calling
We raised our heads in the sky
And hunger is no longer concerns us
Most important need is is our right
We are writing our history,with our blood
If you’re one of us Leave talking & stop saying to us to Move away and leave our dream
saying the word ” I “
In all streets of the country freedom calling

Bertautkah Kiambang di Bisikan Bayu

2010-12-26T21:04:00.012+08:00

Abelek ajak bersajak
Saya tanya bila
Dia kata dua puluh lima
Saya kata saya tak sambut Krismas
Dia kata bukan
Cuma nak bersama
Mencari damai membuang rimas

Abelek ajak bersajak
Saya tanya di mana
Dia kata di Bisikan Bayu
Tempat dewa dewi bercandu rindu
Mencurah nurani
Mengapa bermimpi di siang hari
Melayan tetamu yang tak sedar diri
Sedang bangsa dikembiri
Di negara sendiri

Saya tidak bijak bersajak
Saya saintis yang beralih arah
Bangsa tidak betah kajian sains
Diminta mengajar bahasa
Saya lari
Lalu ajar berbicara
Tentang hidup, tentang masa
Terus terpaut bicara bangsa
Kerana bangsa ku
Nampak leka

Saya bukan penyajak
Yang bisa sinis berpuitis
Cuma pandai bertutur
Tapi bukan tekukur
Yang terus berlibur walau terkurung

Malam ini di Bisikan Bayu
Saya ingin luah rasa terbuku
Yang lama bengkak terguris
Membaca gelagat manusia berkumis
Melayu yang berjiwa gerimis

Melalui sajak Apa lah Melayu

Apa lah Melayu

Ada tanah
Jadi kuli
Ada negeri
Di gari tangan kaki
Mulut dicekup mata ditutup
Bila bicara bantu bangsa lantas digelar rasis
Tengoklah ekonomi
Siapa kendali?
Namanya saja jadi menteri
Rakyat merana dia rancak menari
Lupa balas budi yang dia janji

Apalah Melayu
Bangsa ku
Tanah mu dimamah
Kau masih megah bergaya
Harta mu diratah
Diupah jadi jaga
Kau bersiul bangga
Mencanang akulah raja
Dimanja-manja
Dengan upah komisen bernilai sesen
Berbanding kautan juta peniaga asing
Di hujung kontrak sepet
Hasil pakatan rasuah
Melayu tersepit
Yang gila mewah
Bakal nanti terkejut mimpi
Bila komisen berpindah
Ke Melayu baru

Apalah Melayu
Sesama saudara
Kau gamat berbalah
Maruah digomol
Kau menjilat bangga
Sesama saudara
Kau gagah tunjuk perkasa
Merintang jalan korban raga
Konon zalim patut diderhaka
Mencanggah budaya
Menyanjung puaka yang berseloka
Berdepan mereka kau tunjuk lata
Tangan dihulur terbuka
Salam reformasi berbaik sangka
Cawan diangkat gelas berlaga
Copstik dirai bukti bersama
Kau di jalan mereka berpesta
Bila menang janji kongsi sama

.........

Mengapalah Melayu
Lima dekad berliku
Aku masih tersiku
Dengan pejuang
Yang jadi peju-wang

Belum habis nukilan ini
Baru tulis pagi tadi
Lepas ini sambung lagi
Selagi Daulat Melayu diiringi
Cerita Melayu tetap dibari

Siapa lagi jika
Bukan kita
Yang menarikan pena
Mencatat titah
Hujung jatuh cerita Melayu kita
Mencerna misi evolusi
Minda mencanda seni

AsSalaamu 'alaikum

Dakwah dan kuasa

2010-12-03T14:30:00.005+08:00

1. Seringkali bila saya mendengar khutbah Jumaat dan membaca pelbagai komen dalam pertukaran pendapat, yang kadangkala mirip kepada 'pertengkaran' dalam Facebook, saya cuba mencari sebab kenapa golongan pencinta Islam masih belum mampu membawa kemenangan kepada Islam.

2. Hari ini, sepertimana telah berlaku beberapa kali sebelumnya, minda saya dihujani rasa agar diluahkan pekara-perkara berikut untuk tatapan mereka yang prihatin dalam kancah dakwah.

3. Mungkinkah tumpuan para pendakwah kepada perkara semasa menjadikan mereka kurang beri tumpuan kepada penerapan iman dan peningkatan taqwa?

4. Dari tiori psikologi, bila perkara/idea yang sama diulang-ulang, terutama bila ianya berlaku dengan cara yang sama, atau suara dengan nada yang sama, perkara/idea itu akan menjadi sebati dengan minda separa sedar dan menjadi 'tabiat'. Jika perkara yang dibincang saban hari ialah tentang hal-hal yang boleh meningkatkan iman, maka keimanan boleh bertambah kukuh. Jika perkara politik yang dibincang saban hari, maka yang kukuh ialah kepercayaan politik itu.

5. Ramai, dan sememangnya tidak semua, pendakwah di Malaysia yang begitu rapat dengan maslahah politik tempatan, dan menjadi agenda mudah untuk berada pada peringkat tinggi dalam hirarki minda.

6. Tumpuan dakwah ialah menyeru kepada keimanan dan ketakwaan. Dakwah erti menyeru supaya datang.

7. Tumpuan politik ialah mendapatkan kekuasaan. Dalam suasana konflik yang berlaku dipentas, banyak mesej ditumpukan kepada kelemahan dan kesalahan lawan politik. Mesej dakwah banyak kali ditenggelamkan oleh mesej perebutan kuasa. Menonjol yang salah lebih banyak daripada menonjol yang benar. Kadangkala sengaja tidak menonjolkan yang benar, atau menidakkan yang benar, serta meneybunyikan salah sendiri. Ini bukan metod yang diterima untuk dakwah Islam.

8. Benar, dakwah dan politik, dalam pemahaman kini, tidak boleh dipisahkan. Namun matlamat utama akan menjadi agenda utama, dan menjadi agenda tinggi dalam minda, seterusnya dalam jelmaan sebagai tindakan individu serta kumpulan.

9. Tidak adanya istilah politik (siasah) dalam al-Qur'an dan hadis sebaiknya menjadi bahan kajian bijak pandai yang membahaskan metodologi penyampaian mesej ketuhanan, untuk menilai semula bentuk keterlibatan dalam kancah itu. Tulisan al-Mawardi sebagai antara rujukan utama keperluan melibatkan diri dalam politik harus dinilai semula dalam usaha mencari bentuk keterlibatan yang lebih hampir kepada seerah Rasulullah s.a.w.

10. Banyak kekeliruan berlaku dalam kancah pertarungan politik. Bila Yusuf alQardawi menulis sebegini, "Democracy is the simplest and proper way to achieve the aims of a noble life, to be able to invite all to Allah and Islam, to be able to call others to Iman without having our souls being imprisoned and our bodies sentenced to be executed by hanging. It is the space for a free and honourable nation to have the right to choose, evaluate the ruler, change governments without coups and without bloodshed," ia tidak seharusnya diterima tanpa persoalan. Ada konflik yang perlu dijelaskan.

11. Dakwah adalah aktiviti yang melibatkan masa. Kemana masa diutamakan, disitulah tumpuan minda dan tenaga dikerahkan, begitulah juga kerapatan kepada keimanan dan ketakwaan.

Dunia Semakin Sempit

2010-11-01T19:39:00.005+08:00

Manusia semakin ramai
Dunia makin sempit

Paras air laut makin meningkat
Makin banyak tanah tenggelam
Makin banyak tebing runtuh
Kemana hendak pergi?
Dunia makin sempit

Manusia makin rakus
Berperang serata benua
Kemana hendak lari?
Dunia makin sempit

Penguasa memantau segenap ceruk
Di padang, di bandar, di desa
Di luar di dalam merata
Dari atas dari bawah
Ke mana hendak sembunyi?
Dunia semakin sempit

Manusia meneropong segala
Di Internet penuh cerita
Setiap warga bersaksi mata
Menonton mendengar berita
Ke mana ingin berduka?
Dunia semakin sempit

UMNO 64 tahun

UMNO 64 tahun: Manusia boleh bersatu atas dasar sejarah untuk ketika mana emosi masih mengawal tindakan. Manusia akan lebih bersatu untuk buat sejarah selama mana sejarah itu masih belum tercipta.

Adalah jauh lebih baik untuk UMNO, atau mana-mana organisasi memimpin ahli dan penyokongnya untuk membina sejarah baru yang lebih gemilang. Melayu dulu bersatu kerana ingin membina sejarah dengan kemerdekaan. Kini sejarah itu telah tercipta. Sejarah yang sudah tercipta tidak mampu menjadi asas kepada penyatuan. Perhatikanlah sejarah dan perkembangan masyarakat sepanjang sejarah di seluruh dunia.

Nasi wangi

2010-01-12T11:30:00.002+08:00

Kisah benar: sewaktu berumur 7 tahun, saya pernah buat eksperimen. Masa tu ibu sudah balik ke kampung, cuma tinggal saya dan kakak serta ayah yang menunggu untuk cuti hari raya.

Bila balik dari sekolah, ayah pesan supaya masak nasi. Kami berdua pun masaklah. Entah macam mana, datang idea nak buat eksperimen.

Mula-mula kami tambah susu manis. Lepas tu bubuh teh. Kalau tak silap teh wangi, memang warnanya merah. Dah tak ingat dah apa lagi yang kami bubuh.

Bila masak, nasi tu rasanya manis, berwarna merah jambu.

Takut kena marah, kami buang nasi tu, dan masak yang lain.....

Kenangan manis!

untuk menfaat bersama

Bukan rezeki namanya
walau dalam saku letaknya
selagi tidak diguna
untuk menfaat manusia

Bukan rezeki namanya
walau dikunyah menggula
selagi belum ditelan seluruhnnya
bisa termuntah loya

Bukan rezeki namanya
hanya amanah cuma
untuk dijaga dipelihara
demi menfaat semua

Janganlah tamak haloba
Kongsilah apa yang ada
Kitakan tidak seorang cuma
Didunia yang pasti fana

Street photography tips - by KFJ

2009-07-18T10:12:00.004+08:00

(I c&p these tips from Abedib's FB, written by KFJ).

By Khairil Faizi Jamian:
Some quick tips for streets photography AbeDib, something that I have been trained & learned from some professional photojournalists/ documentary photographers:
1) Clothing:
- "Neutral color": khakis or dark pants, white/ black grey shirt – comfortable for the time of the day
- No glaring colors – this will attract attention
... Read more
2) Equipments:
- Minimalist: bring only what you know you will need – wide angle lens/ prime/ maybe zoom lens would do the work for some people. Speed lights? (Well…maybe not!). Battery grip? Depends on your shooting style.
- Make sure your batteries are fully charged & place at the fast access compartment of your bag / pants, so you would not take much time to replace the used unit
- Memory cards – fresh & empty. Bring extras & place place at the fast access compartment of your bag / pants.
- Sling or backpack – up to you but as minimal as possible – you need to move fast and slow, fast & slow, so you need energy to bring lotsa load, so go figure!
- Water bottle might help if you are working long hours in areas where bottled water supply is hard to get
- Small towel & extra t-shirt just incase you have to work longer hours for that extra “uumph” shots!
... Read more
4) PLAN your work:
- know what you want to get, sketch it.
- know your route (and escape route if it’s not a friendly neighborhood)
- if you are working in groups,2 is the acceptable count, 3 is the max, anymore than 3, is a circus.
- respect the subjects & community – it’s not about you with your expensive equipments but it’s about you knowing them and doing something for them.
- be friendly, very friendly, read their body language – positive or negative & act/ re-act accordingly

Happy hunting AbeDib!

Empty Cup

2009-07-01T18:41:00.002+08:00

I received an email in a yahoogroup, but I don't remember which. It contains the following summary:

Someone wrote:
The empty hole in the center
of a cup is the useful part.

Brad replied:
Not while it's empty.

Lynda asks
Isn't it still useful while it's empty?

Pat states:
Yes it is, as it is a possibility.

Peter says:
Everything has value and worth..even space...
depends on one's orientation to seeing value
and worth in life and the Universe and "in space."

Doug continues:
An empty hole is useful. An empty glass has
nothing to offer. An empty glass can be filled.
What you fill the space with can be beautiful
or haunting

David Adds:
What makes one assume that a hole is really
empty to begin with? It may not contain
something we can see but this does not mean
it's really empty. Maybe we can look closer
to see that something is there?

Vic Challenges:
It's the same pattern as a road. The empty road
can be seen as more useful to travelers than a
full one. And a full road or full cup is being
used to capacity. It's a change of definition to
make a cup into a baseball or a road into a
parking lot. The hole or empty part of the cup
enables it to be useful as a cup. The emptiness
pattern in the road allows travel.

Brad reinserts:
All with emptiness.

Francis adds:
Full, half-full, half-empty. empty with a hole,
empty without a hole. Realizing the state of
the container, is the first step to doing something
positive about it. The first step. Many of us
are unable or struggling to take that first step.

Doug questions:
The cup can be equivalent to life purpose. Whatever
is added to the cup takes the shape of the cup or
life purpose. Some discuss the difference between
half empty versus half full. My question is: are you
pouring or are you drinking?

Dale offers:
I am the cup.

wah yuen expresses:
You have to pour first before you can drink.
Those who try to drink from the cup of life
before contributing towards it will only taste
emptiness.

Francis reflects:
I have decided that I have to act on the
given situation. Am I a taker or a giver?
Do I think of myself and act for my benefit
only? Do I think of others (friends &
colleagues- to be appreciated) without a
thought for myself or my loved ones. Do I
share what I have with all.

Vic mentioned elsewhere:
Silence can be like the hole in the cup. The
most useful part.

Neha jumps in:
Well, are we discussing the empty space or
the cup? The empty space is empty because
we see it that way, it still has air! You
see what you believe. If you see it FILLED
with air...its not as empty...:-)

Rey adds:
The cup runneth over.

USJ ROAR FC - Projek Komuniti

2009-06-08T22:02:00.007+08:00

Ahad lepas (Mei 7, 2009) saya telah dijemput oleh kawan saya untuk turut sama membantu sekumpulan pelajar dalam satu program motivasi di Trolak Country Resort.

Pelajar-pelajar ini merupakan sepasukan bolasepak yang telah ditubuhkan atas inisiatif para ibubapa mereka, dan telah bersama sejak tiga tahun lalu. Sejarah mereka telah bermula lebih awal, sekitar tujuh tahun yang lampau bila mereka sama-sama terlibat dalam satu pertandingan bolasepak. Sebagai pasukan bolasepak, mereka pastinya telah melalui beberapa perlawanan yang menyaksikan kemampuan mereka menandingi pasukan-pasukan yang sepatutnya lebih established. Termasuk, berita terakhir yang saya dapat tahu, mereka akan berlawan dengan pasukan bawah 20 negeri Pahang.

Perkara yang menarik perhatian saya ialah kesungguhan para ibubapa ini yang sanggup membantu menjayakan minat anak-anak mereka. Kesemua mereka ini akan menghadapi peperiksaan SPM pada akhir tahun ini. Program yang diaturkan di Trolak adalah untuk membantu mereka terus bersama walau selepas SPM nanti, dan bukan program akademik atau kemahiran belajar.

Turut sama membantu mereka ialah penyanyi Zainal Abidin yang disamping menghiburkan dengan nyanyian, belaiu berkongsi pengalaman pahit manis beliau sewaktu kecil dan bagaimana beliau berusaha sehingga boleh berjaya. Perkara yang paling menarik bagi saya dalam ucapan Zainal Abidin ialah bila beliau berkata "jika kamu mahukan kebebasan, kamu kena kontrol hidup kamu". Pada awalnya saya tidak beri perhatian kepada kata-kata itu, tetapi bila beliau ulangkan semula, frasa itu menangkap minda saya. Benar, jika kita mahukan kebebasan, kita terlebih dahulu perlu mengawal diri kita. Jika kita tidak kawal diri kita, kita mungkin melakukan sesuatu yang menyebabkan kita ditangkap atau sebagainya, dan akan menyebabkan kita tidak bebas lagi. Satu falsafah hidup yang baru pertama kali saya dengar. Saya setuju dengan Zainal Abidin.

Stories That Coach - 1

2009-05-13T20:19:00.000+08:00

Sand and Stone

A story tells that two friends were walking through the desert.

During some point of the journey, they had an argument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face. The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, he wrote in the SAND: Today my best friend slapped me in the face.

They kept on walking, until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but his friend saved him. After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a STONE: Today my best friend saved my life.

The friend, who had slapped and saved his best friend, asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand, and now, you write on a stone, why?"

The other friend replied: "When someone hurts us, we should write it down in sand, where the winds of forgiveness can erase it away, but when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it.

Learn to write your hurts in the sand and to carve your blessings in stone.

"Seketika saya jatuh 'cinta' dengan peribadi nya yang halus dan penuh dengan 'kasih' 'sayang' sesama insan. 'Sayang' sekali peribadinya pendiam dan tak 'suka' banyak berbicara"

Does that fulfil ur definition requirements? :))

Sang Chinok at 12:09pm February 11
intensity of feelings, in ascending order: suka, sayang, kasih, cinta
longevity of feelings, in ascending order: cinta, kasih, sayang, suka
commitment scale in ascending order: suka, cinta, kasih, sayang

confusing enough?

Cant resist this... its not totally true! LOVE can be expressed as I love, adore, cherish, fancy, pined, long etc. Language and usage is pretty much down to the individual's capability to use/manipulate words in a creative way! Improve one's vocabulary n one will instantly notice the many different ways of expressing oneself in any language!!!

Sang Chinok at 12:34am February 12
yeah, but the lot doesn't really translate to the three words above. the meaning are different. what you have there are variations of 'suka'. so it seems to the english, suka has variable degrees of intensity but there is only love. One true love i guess. cheers!

Sang Chinok at 12:36am February 12
oh yeah, pined and long is like 'rindu' which is a different thing altogether.

Hasnah Khalid at 1:15am February 12
Jatuh cinta (Ishq in Arabic or ashiq in Malay) = fall in love, Cinta=love or hub in Arabic ; cherish and adore dont have equivalent in Malay ( any suggestions?) kasih and sayang are sort of middlebut not the same intensity and suka=like (also hub in Arabic) which is general n the same usage as the Malay language. Infatuate, fancy are other meanings of love but less meaningful or of deep intensity/seriousness. True pinning n longing r other variations of rindu but still more meaningful than the word rindu as pinning is deeper than longing in strength.

Hasnah Khalid at 1:30am February 12
BTW I m not defending the English language but trying to deliver a different paradigm to its many vocab/usage...!

Sang Chinok at 8:01am February 12
hehehehe... i just realized how a man's mills&booneryish moment is ruined by his friends heated discussion on finer points of feelings. hehehehe....

Sang Chinok at 8:02am February 12
tq hasnah. my arabic is rusty to the point it crumbles but yup i agree with your observation. Hasnah Khalid at 8:09am February 12
And thank you 2u2 Mr Sang Chinok....

Fauzi Shaffie at 9:04am February 12
Wow! Thanks Hasnah and Chinok. Good contributions. BTW, I was thinking along the line of what Chinok wrote earlier- the camparative depth in meanings for just one word "love", but need to be explained by other words, as Hasnah elucidated later. Hope to have a nice chance to compile this.
What if:
Suka tidak semestinya sayang. Sayang tidak semestinya kasih. Kasih tidak semestinya cinta.
Sayang juga tidak semestinya suka. Kasih selalunya akan sayang. Cinta selalunya akan berisi kasih.
Sejauh mana cinta itu suci? Sejauh mana cinta itu tidak bersyarat? Bermatakah cinta? Bolehkah memilih cinta? Bolehkah memilih sayang, kasih dan suka?
More? he he, nanti dulu.

Over to (all of) you!

Fauzi Shaffie at 9:25am February 12
One more thing; I used to say to some people having #@$@# about love: "Tu la, sapa suruh jatuh cinta, kan dah sakit..... sebab, semua jenis jatuh ni kan bawa sakit ..." he he

Sang Chinok at 10:09pm February 12
sehari suntuk pikir macam mana boleh sayang tapi tak suka... agaknya macam ni kot: Saya tak suka jam tangan ni, tapi sayang nak buang. kalau cenggitu, lain makna sayang tu, bang.....

Cinta tak boleh paksa, tak boleh rancang, tak boleh duga. Yang lain-lain perasaan tu, boleh.

Kita boleh kata "tahun ni aku nak sayang bini aku lebih sket." Kita juga boleh kata, "aku nak kurangkan perasaan kasihku kepada si dia." Kita juga boleh kata, "Aku rasa bulan ni aku nak cuba suka kat Katie Holmes pulak." Kita boleh kata sebab kita boleh kota.

Tapi pelik bunyinya kalau kita kata "Lima tahun lagi aku nak jatuh cinta ngan Salma Hayek la." Cinta sepatutnya berbalas. Kalau tak, syok sendiri namanya. Tapi kita boleh kata "Minggu depan aku nak buat Megan Fox jatuh cinta ngan aku." Kita boleh kata sebab kita boleh usaha. Tapi sebelum kata berkata begitu, sudah pastilah kita dah syok sendiri....

Sang Chinok at 10:09pm February 12
Cinta ini relatifnya sekejap dan sangat kuat. Kalau selama-lamanya cinta, boleh gila. Tapi, cintakan tanahair lain maknanya. Kita bincang pasal cinta berasaskan nafsu, kan

Sang Chinok at 10:16pm February 12
jatuh cinta tak sakit... yang sakit bila putus cinta.... bercinta ni sebenarnya macam tarik tali... dia jual mahal, kita pujuk; bila tak makan pujuk, kita pulak merajuk dan dia pula yang pujuk. Maka bertarik-tariklah kita. Tapi kalau putus.... bayangkan tali kapal melibas!

Fauzi Shaffie at 11:05pm February 12
Chinok:
jatuh cinta memang sakit: bila cinta tak berbalas, bila orang yg dicinta buat hal, belum putus lagi tu; bila lama tak jumpa, kira rindu la tu;

budak tu berpotensi, tp sayangnya dia nakal; memang tak suka la tu.

"cinta berasaskan nafsu": ni yang ramai dok nafi ni,.... katanya tidak, cinta ini suci,.....

Dalam bahasa Inggeris: kita kata "to love somebody", ertinya "love" is a verb. So a verb can be created, boleh paksa,....

"cinta ini sekejap": bagaimana dengan "everlasting love"?

Sang Chinok at 11:18pm February 12
memang ada istilah cinta paksa. tapi pikir-pikir balik, itu bukanlah cinta sebab cinta itu perasaan, bukan perbuatan sebenarnya. To love adalah 'mencintai'. mcm saya cakap (dan hasnah dah marah pun!), BI ni agak dull. love juga bukan semata-mata verb. kalau tak, macam mana kita nak explain 'fall in love'?

cinta dalam BM melibatkan perasaan dan perasaan tak boleh paksa. Kita boleh buat-buat tapi tak boleh buat.

hehehe... sakit sebelum putus, sakit thrill. sakit lepas putus, sakit ill... :D

Sang Chinok at 11:19pm February 12
ko buat aku tersenyum sorang-sorang la malam-malam nih. bini aku pun ingat aku dah ting-tong! :D

Fauzi Shaffie at 11:27pm February 12
he he. Hasnah kena senyum jugak tu!

Fauzi Shaffie at 11:46pm February 12
"fall" is a verb, rite? to fall, to love.....

Fauzi Shaffie at 11:51pm February 12
bolehkah diukur: kalau cinta, lukanya paling parah; bila suka, lukanya sekadar kulit ari? Kasih, Sayang pulak, sedalam mana pulak lukanya?

Sang Chinok at 7:38am February 13
kalau sayang terluka, ralatnya di bawa mati....

Hasnah Khalid at 10:04am February 14
Love can be used both as a verb n noun....depending on the sentences eg I love mangoes, I fell in love with etc etc. Love is different - relative to different people with different experiences.. I wonder if there is a difference in the intensity of love (taraf cinta) with either gender? Orang tua selalu cakap - bila cinta... makan tak kenyang, mandi tak basah, tidur tak lena, apply to both gender??? Does this last longer for the man or woman?????
Love n lust r intertwined ... do u mean that if cinta sejati, pasangan itu tak mahu ada anak???? (;) Kalau tak kenal, tak cinta ... jadi mesti ada some characteristics in that person that makes u fall for him/her whether it be physical or otherwise...! Dont think that love is entirely blind.... :)

Sang Chinok at 10:35am February 14
love is not blind. it just have tunnel vision! :D

Fauzi Shaffie at 10:36am February 14
"I love mangoes"="Saya suka mangga", never in Malay they would say "Saya cinta mangga", unless metaphorically . So, does this means "love" in English is less specific, and thus less 'mulia'/'suci'/etc compared to "cinta " in Malay?

Sang Chinok at 10:45am February 14
hehehe... fauzi; -sda- (see da above)... pastu cari perlindungan...

Fauzi Shaffie at 10:48am February 14
ha ha

Fauzi Shaffie at 10:53am February 14
Well. Looking thru cultures and histories of nations/race, there are great indications of different 'levels' of love intensities, which may be measured through people's action when faced with love-tangled situations. We read about Majnun Laila, cerita Arab; cerita filem Hindustan depicts similar intensity; probably lesser in Malays; much less in Europeans. If we observe how these people reacts in political situation/hegemonies, we may observe similar trend of emotional outburts.

Guano Chinok, Hasnah?

LOVE

2009-02-11T09:23:00.002+08:00

I'm no Dr Love, and have never celebrate valentines.

Nevertheless, come this 14 February, the world will be enliven by the celebration, for whatever reason, for whatever belief.

Probably, we need to have a peek into the meanings of this four letter word, which seems so sacred to some, intrigue to a big number of people, and yet so illusive to others. Well, I will just cut and paste from Wikipedia, since I'm not into the phylosophy of love:

1. a strong positive emotion of regard and affection; "his love for his work"; "children need a lot of love"
2. any object of warm affection or devotion; "the theater was her first love"; "he has a passion for cock fighting";
3. have a great affection or liking for; "I love French food"; "She loves her boss and works hard for him"
4. beloved: a beloved person; used as terms of endearment
get pleasure from; "I love cooking"
5. a deep feeling of sexual desire and attraction; "their love left them indifferent to their surroundings"; "she was his first love"
6. be enamored or in love with; "She loves her husband deeply"
7. a score of zero in tennis or squash; "it was 40 love"
8. sleep together: have sexual intercourse with; "This student sleeps with everyone in her dorm"; "Adam knew Eve"; "Were you ever intimate with this man?"
9. sexual love: sexual activities (often including sexual intercourse) between two people; "his lovemaking disgusted her"; "he hadn't had any love in months"; "he has a very complicated love life"

With all these 'definitions', where does the 'sacredness' come from?

If I have a chance, I will try to pen down the equivalent Malay words of Cinta, Sayang, Kasih dan Suka. For the moment, just this!

Who are protecting the public?

2009-01-29T09:34:00.005+08:00

A Kugan's case had so far stuck in the mind of the people as more of police brutalities than the reason's of him being caught after a car chase. The role played by the MPs has not helped to clear the matter either.

I have a feeling that the case is being politised more than the case for human right. I published here a letter to The Star which highlights the worries of people on the street, being pawns in the political games. Samy Vellu's assertion to protect his men before even the law has cleared the cloud is no help. Certainly, as a member of public, I would wish to be protected by the police, and not by any gang of criminals.

It is the duty of the police to protect the public, though no one should condone brutalities in the name of law. If policemen got excited and exceed their bounds in doing their job, then let the process of the law take its course. Similarly, no politician should condone law breakers though the people involved could be their strong supporters. And no criminal should be wearing the hat of MPs.

Law is law, and let the public feel safe living in beloved Malaysia.

The letter to The Star:

Thursday January 29, 2009
Kugan’s case exploited

CAR theft suspect A. Kugan’s case has been exploited by politicians from both the Opposition and Government alike.

Instead of pacifying the public until the result of the investigation is known, these people agitate the public, resulting in it turning into a racial issue.

The police have never denied the assault on the deceased, and have repeatedly given assurances that an investigation would be conducted, and without any cover-up.

The incident at the Serdang Hospital mortuary, where the body was with unauthorised persons for about two hours, was against ethics. These unauthorised persons have used it as a reason to claim police brutality and that the police wanted to cover up the matter.

The police themselves do not encourage its members to use inhumane methods to obtain information from suspects. And knowing how violent perpetrators can treat their victims, it sometimes gets on the emotions of the officers.

Bear in mind that in this case the deceased was arrested after a car chase, where the car involved was reported as robbed from its owner.

Investigations led to the recovery of 15 cars. Thus it must not be ignored that Kugan is a perpetrator of crime.

However, we understand that the police must acknowledge the rights of suspects even though there is ample evidence to show involvement in crime.

But this has been overshadowed by the death of the suspect, and he is now regarded as a hero by those with an agenda of their own.

It seems criminals now have more rights than law-abiding citizens. No one is highlighting the rights of law-abiding citizens who are victims of crimes.

No wonder criminals are now so bold, and their heinous activities are being protected by people who claim respect for human rights.

Some politicians investigated and charged for committing criminal offences have also claimed political conspiracy to cover up their crime.

Nobody cares if a police officer is shot or stabbed by criminals. No one is going to care for him or defend him.

If crime is on the increase. blame the police. If detainees die in custody, blame the police. If they break the law to demonstrate, blame the police, as they claim the police started the violence.

It seems criminals have the right to commit crime and be protected. As for the police, weaken them, tie their hands by reducing their powers.

I dread the day when the police will get fed up and just do their duty without making an extra effort to solve crime or even arrest the perpetrator for fear of the “privileges” accorded to the suspect.

Fake FB profile

2009-01-29T09:16:00.003+08:00

Words are being sent around telling that what I wrote on the topic "Tears rolled down ...." was a fake. I published the messages that saying it is a fake as well.

Yes, many would shed tears even if we read short stories or novel. I wouldn't know the truth, and I'm not going to search for that truth, whether it is a fake or real, until a more official announcement is made.

What is important, is how the relationship develops, being good friends, show appreciations, no bickerings, and all that.

We miss that in the real world, at least.

I leave the matters to you readers. If you think it is a fake, then take it as a big story book. It is not a matter of faith.

Thanks.

I must admit, tears rolled down my cheeks . . .

Following is a short experience that touches my heart, probably for a long time to come. Being an active facebook user, Alia's comments did cross my page a number of times, but never do I give any attention. For me, they were just usual chit-chatting among friends. Alia was so secretive about her pains that only very few people knew about it. Her vibrant sincerity, which I gathered after reading her last note, would be missed even by those people who never cross her life. Yours truly included. Tears rolled down my cheeks in the afternoon, when I first read the note, and moments before solat maghrib, while checking my FB, with a heavy heart to know about her development. To my dismay, she was destined to leave this life sooner than expected, at least by me. I can sense the unbelievable feelings around the globe surrounding her departure. To all her friends, I dedicate this writing for you, to her family, my condolence, and for Alia, may you rest in peace. To Allah, please forgive her.

NOTE: Alia's FB page was deactivated @4.00am Jan 28, at her family's request.

Banyak lagi nama yang Lia nak mention tapi Lia tak mampu. Semua orang Lia sayang. Semua orang Lia amek berat. Tapi Lia hanya buat mana yg termampu. Kepada sesiapa yg pernah kecil hati dgn Lia, tolong maafkan Lia yer. Lia insan biasa jew. Lia bukan Nabi. Lia buat silap. Jadi mana yg pernah Lia buat silap, Lia memohon maaf dari semua. Doa korang semua, hanya Allah yang mampu balas. Selepas Lia joined FB on 5th of Dec 2008, Lia rasa happy sgt. Lia ramai jumpa kawan baru. Ada yg jadi kakak Lia, abang Lia, kawan baik Lia, adik Lia. Semua Lia sayang. Kalau mampu, Lia nak beri semua orang hati Lia. Dan kepada yg terasa Lia jauhkan diri, bukan kerana Lia benci. Tapi Lia jauhkan diri atas kebaikan korang jugak. Lia tau yg Lia tak boleh janjikan apa-apa. Lia tau yg umur Lia mungkin tak panjang. Maafkan Lia sayang. Buat semua, kehadiran korang semua cukup bermakna buat Lia. Kesudian korang add Lia amat Lia hargai. Kalau ada jodoh, ada umur panjang, InsyaAllah kita jumpa kat sini lagi. Kalau umur Lia tak panjang, semua jaga diri bebaik. Jangan lupakan Lia. Lia sentiasa ada di hati korang semua. Akhir kata, assalamualaikum semua.

Ikhlas,
Tengku Puteri Alia Fareenah binti Tengku Raja Mohammad Majid Shah.

Fauzi Shaffie at 12:45pm January 27
I never know you before this. But this FB news came to my page just now with the message "selamat tinggal semua". Please delete that phrase .... Be strong. Expect the positive. Allah is with the ones who believe in Him. May Allah help you. We know of cancer patients who are still living and active. Please cling to that positive hope.
Thanks.

Helpless Lawmen

2009-01-26T19:01:00.003+08:00

I received an email from a friend relating his encounter with a group of youngsters- I don't like to brand them, but identify I must - called Mat Rempits.

"Mat dan Minah Rempit di pantai barat xtakut kat polis pun!! Depa ni layak jaga masa PRK saja, nak hambat yang merempit? Payah, nak cegah rempit, toksah cakap la. Pernah satu pagi raya qurban lalu lebih kurang kul 3 pagi aku pi Stesen K/api Tepen ambik anak dia balik naik keretapi dari KL aku balik dulu sekeluarga ngan kereta sehari sebelumnya, sampai simpang jln Kamunting/Kg.Jana (kg mak metua Wak Khair Toyo kita) aku nampak banyak sangat orang berkumpul atas jalan aku ingat ada kemalangan rupanya depa anak-anak muda atas motosikal dok tengok mat rempit berlumba, aku tepon balai polis Kamu(xxxx) apa depa jawab, "kami xleh buat apa dah, kalau pi depa balin batu, aku kata kalau aku tulih kat TS Musa Hassan mintak tulun FRU atau PGA kepong mat rempit ni apa macam? Depa kata stuju dan kami akan sokong cadangan tuan tu....sampai macam tu sedih sungguh aku dengak!"

If the empowered people, with the backings of the enforcement laws, are feeling helpless, what we, the people on the street can do about it?

Homework

2009-01-12T09:03:00.005+08:00

My son, year two, was given a task to write numbers from 1 to 1000 over the weekend, in his exercise book and need to submit it today, Monday morning.

1. I do not understand the zealousness of the teacher.
2. I do not know what is the purpose of that homework.
3. I'm sure there was no challenge to drive new interest in the boy. He knows it so well about counting and writing the numbers. Year two. Why 1 to 1000?
4. I do not know if the teacher knows the meaning of boredom that s/he was creating within the boy (and his friends).
5. Putting an excited small boy into boredom is not the objective of education.
6. Writing numbers for the sake of numbers is torturing. Has that teacher write the numbers him/herself, for the sake of writing the numbers only? How does s/he feels?
7. I'm sure there was little knowledge gained from that exercise.
8. I'm sure the fun of the weekend was robbed from my son.
9. I'm sure if the homework involved some creativity, then some exitement may drive my son to do his homework.
10. I hope all the teachers learn that homework for the sake of homework is of little use. Let homework be for the purpose of learning.
11. I hope teachers learn not to kill the zeal of learning in children.

This is my response:

That much? Then it is not that much compared with those in Ghaza, at least.
Well, I 'm not belittling your problem (or did I say 'challenge' in 1996?). But, in order to BEGIN the rebuilding of our life, we must first see that the problem we are facing is NOT insurmountable. So, face towards Ghaza, and you will find you are in a much more better situation. The blockades in you are just basically psychological. Get up my babe! You can win this life game, handsomely. Cut off the past with the sharpest knife from your memory by NOT rewinding it. Our mind can only focus on one thing at a time. Thus, if you focus on something you cherish, anything, for the future, then the past will be blocked out. Don't tell me you've nothing to look forward to. I'm sure you have, just that the memories are dragging you down and distract your attention to it. In Allah we trust, and he had promised, "if you go to Him walking, He will come to you running".

Decisions for 2009

2008-12-31T19:12:00.003+08:00

Decision. We do it almost 24/7. Well, except when we sleep! And how many of us (I mean those who read this write up, I'm not asking the rest ... ) realise the importance of HOW we make decisions?

We've been learning about so many things for so long, and probably for so many times from so many people/sources. Still, learning has not much meaning unless we use the knowledge for making decisions, consciously, or subconsciously, to proceed with our life. But then, what is the odd that we don't decide rightly? We may know the implications only when something goes not according to our expectations.

Is decision making an important task? Yes, very, I believe. If we notice that we need to make conscious decisions at almost every juncture of our life, then its importance must not be underestimated. It is like a T-junction, we have to choose whether to turn left or right. Once decided and taken, the route is our life forever, and reversing may not be a cheap option.

Year 2008 is closing within hours from the time this article is published. It is a traffic junction of life, and we have to decide which way to go: straight on, left, or right, for 2009!

So, do take care to learn how to make good and positive decisions effectively.

Happy new year!

Welcome to change . . . . the Hijrah of 1430th.

2008-12-29T15:56:00.004+08:00

Hijrah is change. And now it is 1430th year since the day Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) changed his base from Makkah to Madinah.

About two months ago, I did a small 'research' and came up with snapshots of the process of the Treaty of Hudaibiyyah. It was written in Malay, and a few pages long, hence a bit inappropriate for me to paste it here.

Probably the most important thing that I would like to highlight in sharing the 'findings' here is that, the treaty emphasised peace. The treaty was hailed as the turning point of Islamic rising to world power, and it started with peace. It was during this peaceful time that Islam spread much faster and wider than during the enmity period 13 plus 7 years before that; thirteen years in Makkah, and the first 7 years in Madinah. There were only about 1500 muslims at the time the treaty was sealed in the month of Zulkaedah, 6th year of Hijrah. The number grew to about 10,000 when the Prophet declared the Fath al-Makkah, or the conquest of Makkah about two years later.

Yes, Islam spread much faster during peace. For that, I pray for more peace for the whole year of 1430H.

Our lecturers . . . .

2008-12-28T13:10:00.005+08:00

Last night I was with close to 10 friends from the same school that we attended decades ago. A few from Shah Alam, entertaining friends from Kelantan and Langkawi. There we were, from 10.30pm, with one or two excused themselves earlier, the rest stayed till about 2.30am. The conversation varied from asking about the missing years, since some never meet since more than 30 years ago, to current happenings in the country. But there was nothing about politics. Were they not interested? Or plain fed up!

I sat longer with one, till 2.30am, an experienced lecturer. He shared his 'philosophies' about being a 'professional lecturer', which grossly meant, forget about being 'a professor' and all those 'mundane' tags of being a lecturer. He told me he is focused on being a lecturer who contends with teaching the right things and concentrate on research. He shared that he has the biggest chunk of the research grant, bent on making the real cut to the world of real research. He is not into producing 'graduate salesmen', who tend to focus on appearance and presentation skills, but hollow with content.

He confided his doubt on the selection to 'professorship'. 50% of the lecturers in his department are at least holding "Associate Professor" status, but only 10% of them secured research grants, and only about half of these are credible research.

I have no further comment.

PLKN Master Trainer

2008-12-24T14:30:00.002+08:00

I was fortunate to be one of the Master Trainers - to train the trainers of PLKN (Program Latihan Khidmat Negara) - well, only for one module. It gave me the chance to look deeper into the program, and sense the content of the program which is supposed to build our future generation.

The program (PLKN) itself is very good, I believe. Nevertheless, any human development training program will achieve its objective only if it fulfills at least three criteria: the content (begin with the objective), the trainers, and how it was conducted. The participants are raw (well, not very raw anyway, at 17 ...) and may be coloured by the trainers and its training content.

I'm looking forward to meet the trainers, and share .. .. ..

Where was me . . . . .

2008-12-20T06:53:00.009+08:00

It was such a long time since May that I wrote here. Between then and now, I had borrowed more than 40 books about entrepreneurship and decision making from MMU library. Did I scourge them all? Oh, no!

Well, I did scan all, but chose to read only a few of them.

I did not pay much attention to this blog since I was more active on my other blogs. The past few months were basically my trial at finding the dearest area for me to focus on blogging. I spent most of the time on political discussions, just to my dismay that things never change since decades ago.

Yes. I was involved actively in politics since the early eighties, both sides. My concern on people just could not break me away from giving attention to political issues. I read, I hear, I comment. But the response, more than 95% (I never really measure anyway ...... ) has always being defensive, or attacking. Almost never did I receive "on the issue" responses. Well, almost.

Politicians are but politicians. Probably, after nearly three decades, I may have to admit that I am not cut to be one of them.

Truth is nearer to me, not winning. Faith is closer to me, not position. The afterlife is dearer to me, not those mundanes.

Come 2009, would I be a different person?

Books

Yesterday, I went to Multimedia University at Cyberjaya, and listened to a lecture on Research Methods. Very informative. Then I went to the univ's library, or Tun Hasmah Library they call it, and borrowed 7 books on entrepreneurship.

If anyone ask, why 7? Well, I wanted more if there were any more relevant titles with what I want to know.

Meanwhile, I am reading a book which I bought last week, "A Monk Who Sold His Ferrari", now midway. I should say I can tear off the first thirty pages without losing anything....

My friend Abedib, aka The Reader should be delighted with this development, I think.

A visit to the Land of the Prophets

2008-05-05T14:43:00.005+08:00

It was my first time visit to Egypt. I'm not a seasoned traveler, but what I saw in Egypt amazed me and hope to go there again for more.

I was there for about two weeks in April and recorded my travel on my canon 20D. I had uploaded some of the pictures on my Flickr pages and linked it to this page. Happy viewing.

Slow starter

2008-05-05T13:50:00.002+08:00

I am a slow starter to blogging. The postings here are proves.....

BTW, I am increasing the frequency of updating my blog. Hope so....

I have another blog which I started later than this one, but it is in Malay, and concerns more on the Malaysian politics.

The content of this blog would be left to what my mynd feels about life, not just politics, but beyond it as well. Politics is but only a portion of life that we must take care of.

Early education for our youngs

2008-02-23T23:10:00.006+08:00

About a week ago, I gave a very short introduction speech to a group of my friends regarding the importance of early education, emphasizing the socio-economic impact. Research done at the dawn of the third millennium by socio-economists confirms earlier findings by psychologists of the last century. Yes, we must educate our next generation early so as to increase education effectiveness and reduce later burden on expenditures to correct them at older ages. As early as 3 years old. Spendings for education at early ages (3-6) is up to 17:1 better than spending it for post school ages.

How I wish .....

My first topic, my concern....

2007-05-08T08:58:00.000+08:00

To start the ball rolling, allow me to tap on a subject that has been lingering on my mind for ages – the way we bring up our children. Opps, I don’t mean our parenting, not this time. It concerns beyond parenting. The education.

I didn’t send my first child to school, for the first year of his ‘eligibility’ for schooling. In the second year, I sent him to school more out of concern that he may not have enough exposure to socialisation – not really for the education. Why?

This happened about twenty years ago. Now he has graduated as an electrical engineer, but never use the degree for his living. He is now a professional photographer,doing what he likes, and make people pay for it. What has happened to his education? Education? That is a long topic to discuss. Let’s just say his degree…… . Well, he didn’t even take the scroll from the university. Probably it would be safer to leave it there!

This is probably one of the many examples of the direction of our (I mean, in this article, Malaysian) education today. We are lost!

True! One may say that what we studied does not necessarily lead to our occupation. Agreed. No argument on that. Nevertheless that is not an excuse for us to stop pondering over the matter. I gave only one example. We may have more from the others. What we are interested in is ‘why’, and ‘how’.

So, what about our education system then? Our (country) leaders are claiming that our education system is one of the best (in the world?). Let that not stop our scrutinising of the topic. The best, does not necessarily mean the rightest, and the most effective for our society of human being. System, content and implementation are three different words that would give education different directions individually.

Let me stop here for a moment .... till my fingers itch again.

May I Start .....

2007-05-07T20:27:00.000+08:00

Yes, I am admitting. It took me more than two and a half years to come back and activate this blog. Too busy? I doubt. Probably, more appropriate to admit that I am no blog writer.

What then made me itching to restart? Umm, I'm not bound to give excuses, right? So, just let me start. At least the congested Net is busier by one blogger.

I'm not promising anything. Not even a continuous write up. I am no blogger, remember? At least not yet! So, there is no wish list. May ideas flow.

To visitors, welcome to my blog.
