Akta Pendidikan 1996


Najib bernasib baik hari ini kerana dia masih ada penyokong yang masih memikirkan ada agenda yang lebih besar perlu dipertahankan selain mempertahankan Najib. Najib juga bernasib baik kerana masih wujud golongan penyokong yang masih rasa terhutang budi kepada ayahandanya Tun Abdul Razak. Agenda 1Malaysia-nya jelas dimanipulasi kaum chauvinist sehingga merugikan Melayu. Walaubagaimanapun, seseorang pemimpin memang seharusnya ada pengikut setia, dan juga harus ada pengikut waspada.

Bangsa Malaysia Part 2




The issue of streamlined schooling hinges on the mutifaceted impediments to national unity and the seeming futility in forging a true Bangsa Malaysia of sufficiently shared affinities to reflect our common nationhood.

Bangsa Malaysia Part 1


In a long-winded corporate adverts to mark Merdeka, Hari Raya and assorted ethno-religious festivities are also littered with more fantasized scenarios of a multiracial, multicultural, multireligious and multi-whatever populace co-habitating tolerantly while celebrating their glorious diversity in a utopian land of opportunity for all.

Sejarah dan Warisan Melayu




Sejarah adalah satu ilmu yang tersangat lah penting dalam pembinaan jati diri generasi bangsa. Dengan pengetahuan sejarah bangsa yang lengkap dan tepat, semangat untuk maju kehadapan bagi setiap individu dalam bangsa-bangsa tertentu akan lebih tertampil. Bangsa yang tidak menonjolkan sejarah hebat bangsanya akan mendung masa depan anak bangsanya. Bangsa yang mendung masa depan nya akan mundur kebelakang dan akhirnya bangsa itu akan hanya tertinggal dalam lipatan sejarah akibat ketidakmampuan untuk bersaing.

Kesan Perjanjian Tanah KTM Di Singapura



PADA 20 September lalu, Malaysia dan Singapura menandatangani perjanjian pertukaran tanah membabitkan tanah Keretapi Tanah Melayu Bhd’s di republik itu.

Ia dimeterai oleh Perdana Menteri Malaysia, Mohd Najib Abdul Razak dan Perdana Menteri Singapura, Lee Hsien Loong, di kota singa.

Kedua-dua pemuka menguar-uarkan (bukan war-war) perjanjian itu sebagai kejayaan besar dan pembaikan ke atas “Point of Agreement (POA)” yang menjadi asas rundingan antara dua negara.

Saya tidak mahu berselisih faham, menyangkal atau menyangkal laporan dan ulasan media massa yang menghebahkan perjanjian itu sebagai “win-win” (menang-menang).

Saya sekadar ingin berkongsi maklumat dan interpretasi peribadi saya untuk kita dalami, fahami dan bahaskan. Berikut adalah antara inti pati, ciri dan implikasi perjanjian berkenaan:-

1. Dulu tanah KTM di Singapura adalah milik penuh dan mutlak Malaysia, walaupun kegunaannya terhad kepada operasi kereta api dan kekal hak Malaysia selagi operasi kereta api berjalan;

2. Sekarang tiga keping tanah KTM telah ditukarkan dengan sembilan keping tanah lain dan operasi kereta api akhirnya akan ditamatkan;

All the Wishes and Greetings

To all my dear friends who are celebrating Hari Raya, Selamat Hari raya Aidil Fitri, Maaf Zahir dan Batin.

Semoga your Raya is filled with lots of family and friends, lots of love and lots of ketupat dan rendang.
To those who are going to balik kampung, have a safe, smooth trip and may you not feel like terkencing on the trip because the highways and byways toilets will be terribly full.
Have patience because the jam will be horrendous and get some foods because the pit stops are packed.
 
And since I have sent my early wishes to you all, you can also send your wishes to me.

Things on my to-do list are :
1) go bungee jumping
2) go parachuting, not para gliding, that one not counted
3) go on the scariest roller coaster ride in the world, not genting, I did all that
4) touch more hearts
5) bring more smiles

Write, Delete, Write, Delete

I tend to practise self-censorship.

Then, there is the spur of the moment rant which I can do on Twitter and Facebook and do not need a blog to deal with that part. I am several years late to be excited over blogs, sorry to say that.

Blogs aint’ hot anymore. They are yesterday. No one looks up to a blogger anymore. Blogs don’t make you rich. But of course, some bloggers still earn some money because they are packed with keywords and Google have indexed their pages.

In the previous general election, blogs have helped a lot. In the coming general election, blogs are irrelevant. Twitter has taken over. Facebook will accommodate the more detailed stuffs while Twitter will give the up to the minute updates.

So, what has my title gotta do with all these paras I wrote above?

Nothing. It shows how fickle I am. This is my fifth title, because I had deleted off some earlier things that I had wanted to say.

Actually, only with Twitter can you ambush and hijack a person’s thoughts. You can’t do that with blog. It is not quite the same. Frankly, I don’t see why people still want to read blogs. They are just so boring nowadays. I don’t know if those few bloggers are still stuck in their same old routine of showing what they eat, what they just bought, etc etc etc.

Maybe I will just put a tombstone on this site and says my blog has gone to eternal rest. But then, not yet. I want to rant and Twitter or Facebook cannot accommodate that.
