It's about number....magical number....37

Last week, I have celebrated my son's birthday....his 5th birthday. He enjoyed himself as PS2...was his birthday gift. A very simple birthday party, but very memorable one. I think everyone was happy....

I'm celebrating my birthday as well...my 37th.....and tonight....I invite my in-laws to a special dinner....

Hope everything is in order and I wish all my dreams will be fulfilled......insyaAllah.

what goes around, comes around....

Things to ponder.....

1. When global financial turmoil hit Malaysia...

2. When a former senior politician convicted a crime in the court...

3. When a court decision not favouring to one political faction...

4. When someone licked back what he has said back in 1986....

5. When politicians unable to keep their promises....as highlighted in the 12th General Election...

6. When someone eventually demolished stalls in order to ensure proper condition......

7. When students more interested to demonstrate their skills in complaining e-voting system in public university election rather than study for their exams..

8. When more people are jobless due to economic uncertainties...

9. When prices of foods, goods, daily products are escalating...tremendously....

10. When students are unable to understand simple English...

11. When parents are unstoppable.... to retaliate teacher's actions to discipline their children...

12. When it comes to February 14..........

what to write??

Many things happened this week. Man United defeated Arsenal, 3-1;my wife's article accepted for publication in the Business Strategy Series Journal; the "illegal" stalls were demolished in Penang; John Terry's sex scandals revealed; Anwar Ibrahim's sodomy case finally started; a child was seriously injured due to escalator; more racists chants in the blogger sphere.....etc..

How good is you memory?

It is almost a month since my last posting in this blog. I'm very stressful as I have to wait again for a new date for my viva voce. Yesterday, I have received a forwarded email, from my student inviting a guest speaker for a Operations Management class. In fact, I have suggested my MBA student, a manager at Flextronics to deliver a talk something about global Operations Management. The most intriguing thing about this class is the ability of my students to remember things...

It's really very surprising as some of them have forgotten their lecturers' names even for the previous semester. What about the subjects they have taken? Can they still remember? Why this thing happened? I am really proud as I can still remember most of my lecturers and teachers....

2010...the challenges

2010......is the year...Kedah should become a fully developed state. 2010 also...very interesting as more surprises are coming into actions. I hope and pray..Malaysia will become more prosperous. No more racial tension, no rhetoric in politics...and all must work hard to make sure our country can be once again the best location for foreign investors. More investors mean...more job opportunities. More chances for unemployed fresh graduates and VSS victims..

Happy new year..2010 &1431H

*really busy as I only managed to update my today

How on earth these things happened??

I've not updated my blog about a month. Too many things to settle urgently. Just came back from KL on Sunday and on Monday morning, I have travelled to Penang before heading to KL again. On Thursday morning, I'll be travelling to Kuantan. Very tiring......

It always my taboo not to discuss any bad news or any negatively related issues about other's car. And whenever I heard bad news, i.e. a car met with an accident, stolen, breakdown etc. I just let the news gone away....far from me. However, my ex-Waja, sold to a friend has been stolen and I anxiously told my wife about that.....and a taboo, my new WISH has shown it protest, perhaps.....breakdown unexpectedly when I've been in KL.....Really pity for my wife as she's struggled...alone...but managed to send the WISH to a workshop. When I reached A.Star from KL, I went straight to the workshop. I knew the mechanics won't be able to repair or diagnose the electrical problem although the workshop have computerised engine diagnostics facility.

So, on 14/12 I sent the WISH to the sales centre at Juru Autocity. I hired a tow truck and it costs RM350 but paid by the sales centre. Anyway, the WISH is still under warranty....but the inconvenience caused really made me feel unpleasant......

Just wait for the technicians and mechanics to rectify and more importantly to diagnose the root cause of the problem.

However, today's newspaper (15/12009) really surprised me as police raided a house in Kelantan and found many explosives and arrested Thai citizens. It is about our security issue and I really hope police and related agencies will take serious attention towards eliminating such threat to our country.
