..well, actually 'I' have moved. it's to another weblog. why..? maybe i'll explain in the other blog, maybe not. so to all of you if you have been reading (if there is any), thank you for you kindness to care or share (sharing is caring?), now feel free to visit my newly-constructed website..

until then.
The sacking of former Pengarah JAIP Datuk Jamry Sury (not sacking actually..he was actually transferred to other department) by Mr. MB DATUK SERI Nizar came by a surprise to many. it totally rocked the state Islamic affair n put everyone in the silverstate at concern, well at least for the moment la kan .. especially when he said that it was ‘normal admin procedure’. Our Ketua Puteri Umno made a worthy comment, stating that everybody deserved an explanation n “by saying that he is insulting the intelligence of the common people everywhere”.
Indeed. Yes, Datuk Seri.. please don’t insult our intelligence.
But he made a good n acceptable response to it. He eventually explained that Datuk Jamry was not merely given d 24-hours’ notice, as he had been given 40 days to familiarize with the new state govt. He refused to cooperate, thats what i heard. And before this, govt officers hav been transferred from dept to dept without state approval n knowledge, so why the sudden rush of blood to the head?
Please..dont insult his intelligence.
People who has always been skeptical of his appointment r now having the reasons to question his motives n abilities. Some said to me that he’s showing his ‘true colours’.. “x boleh ni.. kena refer Sultan woo…Sultan tu sebagai Ketua Agama Negeri…mana boleh suka ati je..” abes tu takkan aa Datuk Nizar x pikir tu semua..dont u think he is well prepared 4 his obligation to answer to the Royal Highness? N if we look at what happened in ganu kite, wut example is given to us? ..now u tell me that murka-to-sultan, if any, is such a shocking experience n never happen before?
Please..dont insult my intelligence.
Another guy at my office ranted, tho in a funny yet cynical way, that wut has been said before is not delivered. “kata nak bagi minyak turun la..apa la.. tapi harga minyak camtu jugak..lagi naik ada la..harga beras lagi naik..janji boleh la weh…” I felt like yelling back at him, n tell him bout the power of state n federal govts.. but ah, some people are just like that..its gonna take a Herculean effort to help open one’s view..
But please, don’t insult my intelligence.
I don’t care if ur red, green, blue, light blue, biru air laut or of any colour in the whole world.. But please behave accordingly n think before u talk. I just cannot accept the behavoiur of certain annoying, nak-tunjuk-pandai people, especially when ur an MP n talking in the Parlimen weh.. come on ahh..
ur a leader selected by people who vote for u..please deliver in a good n respectable manner la. U call people Bigfoot, monkey.. budak sekolah menengah pon x gaduh macam ni dalam meeting formal. N the most irritating one is from d Independent Ibrahim Ali of Pasir Mas, teasing wheelchair-bound Karpal Singh for not “respecting the Hosue” by not standing up when talking. Angered Mrs. Cili Padi of Batu Gajah then asked him to tarik balik his words..n wut did he say? ....“ala, usik-usik sikit dah melenting”. U accept me to tolerate these kind of behaviour from our leaders?
Please..don’t insult my intelligence.
But today after the former JAIP Director went mengadap n merayu to Sultan, d Sultan asked Nizar to reappoint him back. Wutever is good for the silverstate..
N today we were shocked by d death of Naza Group owner Tan Sri Nasimuddin, of lung cancer. Tho he was surrounded with ugly rumours during his life, he is truly a remarkable usahawan Melayu yang berjaya, set good example for us to follow. May he rest in peace. Al-Fatihah.
wow, i can hardly swallow the fact that michael johns is no longer an American Idol contestant. He's definitely one of the crowd's favourite, the judges' favourite, n i think he's a real pursuer who really has the qualities to become an idol. only the fact that he's an Australian..so maybe thats a reason for his elimination. He cracked me up when he sang the Queen medley n of course Aerosmith's dream on.. but thankfully david cook is stil on the show. Wow, i 'fell in love' with him from the start when he sang his own style of Happy Together.. n when he put a great performance while performing Chris Cornell's blues version of a Michael Jackson classic "Billie Jean", that really nailed the judges and us all. Rockers who have been listening to king Cornell dont need to be reminded of how great such pop song can be turned into a beautiful, full of soul rock tune..but thanks to Cook, mainstreamers got a chance to listen to rock the right way.
Wow, i never thought that finally i am a true mainstreamer guy.. wathing Idol, ANTM cycle by cycle until i fall.. buy Ikea stuff and branded tees.. drive to work n back home at 5pm++.. karaoke sessions once in a while.. well none of these ever crossed my mind few years back, while i'm still in UIA.. but hey, its hard (n rather inappropriate) to stay in a genre.. most important thing is that i am happy and not cheating myslef, rite? hehe.. but still, wow.
I want to help you
But I don't know how
I want to soothe you
But I can't speak out
I have many fears
About rejection
I have many memories of pain
I have always been a little shy
So I'll turn and look the other way
Other way
Other way
I will turn and look the other way
I want to hold you
But I am afraid
I want to touch you
But I'm not that way
I have many doubts about my motives
I have many fears about my greed
I have always hurt the ONE THAT I love
So I'll turn and look the other way
Other way
Other way
I will turn and look the other way
[guitar solo]
I have many doubts about my motives
I have many fears about my greed
I have always hurt the one that I love
So I'll turn and look the other way
Other way
Other way
I will turn and look the other way
Other way
Other way
I will turn and look the other way
That’s how I felt for Koh Tsu Koon. Maybe he has expected it..but to lose it all?. Sensing the danger,my premature assumption suggested that’s the reason for him contesting in parlimen batu kawan. Maybe Pak Lah had plans for him to take over from Chua Soi Lek (he’s a doctor what..), but now he is to be written off the book.. Same goes to Awang Adek Husin. life as a timbalan menteri kewangan in a luxurious house at Tropicana (is he still living there?) is now all behind.. Maybe Dr. Che Musa should accompany him into whatever he will dejectedly go into later.. but i keep on wondering why BN push the ex-UIA lecturer and other Klate-born newbies to strenuously claim Kelantan? Why not concentrate more on what you already have, in Penang, Kedah, Perak, Selangor..?
Yang dikejar tak dapat, yang dikendong berciciran.
I woke up in the morning and it’s a new government in Perak. From ipoh to the up north of perak..now all taken by the then-opposition. Except for rafidah n the gang in kuala kangsar, nazri aziz in padang rengas.. if u go to the coffeeshops in Pekan Kuale, or uptown area, for years they have been talking about going for the alternatives, but still, rafidah nailed it. I assume BN has done well in the royal city. I really admire the cleanliness and peaceful environment. So it is up to the ‘manifastoed’ Malays in kampong-kampong Kota Lama, Manong, Karai to decide, based on what they got from the newspapers ,‘idiot boxes’ and radios..
While in my beloved taiping, DAP was victorious.. its almost a clean swept, with a few PAS victories here n there.. except for Kamunting, won by a BN-newcomer Zahir Datuk Khalid who happens to be an old boy of mckk. Hoho. Another new face, Mr. Treasurer Azim Zabidi couldn’t mark his silver-plated stamp in Bukit Gantang. Yes Mr. Abramovich, we have said it to you too, money can’t buy success.. Even ‘all-time favourite’ M.Kayveas lost, but that was highly anticipated. He didn’t have much support from Gerakan here and he was all by himself. BN stalwarts still going strong in Tajol Rosli area like Gerik and Lenggong, also in Parit, Pasir Salak area.. Now, even Sg. Siput Indians don’t vote for MIC, so hopefully BN won’t just make promises to the Malay folks in kampong-kampong here.. and hopefully Perak will name the new Menteri Besar sooner rather than later.
I really think that this election is a proud moment for those who have been crying out for change.
Samy vellu ended his legacy on a shameful note. “Even an army won’t bring me down!”.. but now, the voice of people did it. All I can say is that he should have resigned earlier.. much earlier. Or anytime during his heyday, if I can remember any. Well, I am not around when he was first elected in 1974, but I’m sure if not during his peak of popularity n success, he should not cling to the job that was so controversial, inviting more n more problems and people are calling for his head on a platter. BN should have advised him..or even urged him not to contest. Ah, Pak Lah shall have a difficult time come Tuesday in naming the new Cabinet. New Minister of Works? Information? Women n Family Devt? Ah, relax Malaysian, we have the all-sweat Khairy to step forward..
Cant imagine tajol rosli is now a suara pembangkang in my exco negeri.. n so does khir toyo! now he cannot just order penyapu to be given away… without protests and the exco consent this time. Ah, some people would have been very proud of KL at the moment. Still, Fed Government should not be too panic, they still got Johor, Pahang, ill-mannered Ganu, little Perlis and Malacca, and ‘big bros’ Sabah n Sarawak rite?
For coverage in Kalng Valley area, check out at my fren's blog http://youppe.wordpress.com/ later. hah.
As for me, in view of urban and regional planning, I just hope that all the corridors are not going to be sempit..
i have an electric guitar, but i have no amp to plug into.
i have a lot of good books, but i don't read them much, or at all.
i have a semi-auto washing machine, but i've been 'hijacked' into paying 600 ringgit n the thing now is not even with me.
i have an expiring passport, but i make excuses not to travel.
i finally have my own room, but i'm still curious of my privacy level.
i have a 5-year-old driving license, but i am yet to have my own car (n knowing d fact that a P-license owner alreadi possessing a car is just killing me more).
i have an interesting, decent-paying, mediocrity-requiring job, but i struggle to excel.
i have my own space at the office, but the runnings and over-delegatings made me look like a P.A. to the boss.
i have an easy life at the moment, but i tend to compartmentalize my life as well.
i have enough talent, but to no avail.
i have people who look up to me, but i think it's merely because of my height. Hah =P
i have feelings, but i am being overly scrupulous about it.
i have fears, but i am making a big deal about it.
i have many good friends (i think so), but none are in proximity.
i have a beautiful,loving family, and i am proud of it..
thankful, thankful, thankful.. i think that is one thing that i must do often.. or actually start doing.. i mean really doing it.
walk the talk.
talk the talk.
talk THE talk.
so yesterday i had bukak pose with a few of geng lama.. long time no c, but theyr pretty much the same. first i thought this thing wudnt happen coz yong n syah are not available. hoho. zizul siap bawak kaum kerabat... but good also, at least meramaikan majlis yg x ramai. few unexpected absentee tho, so it was quite a letdown. glad 2 c that after a few rifts n falling out, after all these years, ppl managed to get together well.. tho i know a bit of it is still happening, mayb involving other ppl..but at least i hope theyr not pretending. As for me, its gud to hang out with a few that on the same wavelength after quit sum time! hah.
i came across this cool tune, "7 days, 7 weeks" by dEUS, a great n 'almost legendary' indie rock band from Belgium.. it sounds amazing to my ear.. listening to its previous hits such as Suds and Soda, made me happy like the heydays when i listen to blur (with a britpop touch), n not forgetting our own OAG, pity the band is not how it used 2 b anymore. u guys shud check out our local indie/xperimental band, "they will kill us all". they sound pretty decent.. i'm not promoting bcoz i know one of the bandmembers, but hey, they got a short review in a local newspaper (malaymail if i'm not mistaken) n they r melodic, not the typical type n wud worth ur time listening. so? indie rock is the way n sumtime they rules.. emo rock s**ks.
gotta go, n u guys pray that Henry score a hattrick tonight!
it's raining heavily outside... so, where shud i start? today is pretty tiring..i think it is actually effect from yesterday's 5-hour bus travel from taiping-s.alam, n i only reached home at 8.45pm++ last nite. as for today, i went to MPSJ (this place is like a 'home' 2me now) n also to menara pan global, jalan tandang, pj..sum remote area in the so-called City. wah, seems like i wont get a break from running-errands, tho i actually just met with an accident, exactly a week ago. yep, a car accident (no lah..i'm not driving..but a car is involved). i was riding my bike like usual.. well not that usual coz i was busy looking for IDP subang jaya (the place was having Aussie edu fair). so while i was 'scanning' the shophouses, WHAM! a car suddenly went out from his parking lot (or was he illegally making a 'side parking'?) n i hit it on the side. down i fell,wuth all the sijil2, n sum ppl came 2 help.. to cut thing short, the driver apologized, admitted his mistake n sent me to the clinic. got 2 days-MC, but cudnt afford 2 miss work on thursday n friday, coz got submission. so only went back 2 hometown on fri's nite..pity lah my parents.. lemme go back home 4 4days n convince them that i am all rite..haha. so now back in klang valley...sooo sangap wayang. x kira..hav to go, i not 2day, 2moro.abes tuh tarawih? aiseh,boleh kira 2 tangan je brapa kali pegi masjid stakat nih.. hhmm.. well that's me. but good to know that on the same day that i had d accident, i was confirmed of my employment. ada lah increment sket..heh. (aik, ada yg nak mintak blanje ke..?haha). n the following Wednesday (on MC day), i still managed to go to edu Fair, with me loving n caring sis(who take care of me while i'm in the pain), n the Faculty of Built Environment rep from UNSW convinced me that i shud get a place at the U...so now waiting eagerly for the offer letter, n until then, poning pale for the preparation shud the offer is there. ada hikmah kot eksiden tuh.. "macam every semester ada je benda nak jadi kat ko yeh.. dulu tangan kena kipas.." -luqman. "x abes2 lagi dengan loser ko tuh ke" -zaime. haha... i luv my frens..seriously.
ku gembira Kau telah tiba
hati telusku sebelum ini tak berpenghuni
kutahu cinta ini takkan hilang
ia bersinar seperti hari yang paling terang
dan harumnya seperti wangian malam
di dalam, ku rasa penuh dan ku bersyukur kerana Kau ada di sisiku malam ini
tanpa cintaMu ku jatuh
tanpa cintaMu kuhilang arah
ku sanggup tempuhi segalanya semula
hanya untuk mampu merasakan sebegini
kerana kutahu
tanpa cintaMu ku jatuh
kurasa berharga bila Kau sentuh
cuma perasaan ini yang kuperlukan dalam hidupku
kerana Kau telah menunjukkan cahaya
tiada kesakitan yang terlalu perit dan
tiada kemewahan adalah biasa
asalkan ku adaMu di sini,di dalam pikiran
sepanjang hidup ku telah menanti saat seperti ini untuk tiba
tanpa cintaMu ku jatuh
tanpa cintaMu kuhilang arah
ku sanggup tempuhi segalanya semula
hanya untuk mampu merasakan sebegini
kerana kutahu
tanpa cintaMu ku jatuh
sungguh sepi
silamku sebelum Kau tiba
takdir baru ini bermakna tiada kesengsaraan
dan kepahitan itu akan hilang
tanpa cintaMu ku jatuh
tanpa cintaMu kuhilang arah
ku sanggup tempuhi segalanya semula
hanya untuk mampu merasakan sebegini
kerana kutahu
tanpa cintaMu ku jatuh
