Misteri Kapalselam Takboleh Menyelam - Mungkin Salahfaham Terjemahan Bila Buat Pesanan

Mystery of The Submarine That Can't Submerge - Maybe A Misunderstanding In Translation When Placing Order

petikan daripada asiasentinel.com seperti laporan John Berthelsen, Isnin 30hb April 2012: Ia cuma suatu tanda pada pintu pejabat di Hong Kong? Untuk sebuah syarikat yang dikatakan menerima sekurang2nya 36juta euro (144juta ringgit) daripada satu anak syarikat kepada firma pertahanan Perancis DCN, Terasasi (HK) Ltd rupa2nya penuh misteri. Ia salah satu dari 142 nama yang tersenarai pada tingkat 19 sebuah pencakar langit di 3 Jalan Lockhart dalam daerah Wan Chai di Hong Kong. Penyewa utama di tingkat 19 itu ialah Union Alpha, cabang di Hong Kong bagi sebuah firma perakaunan yang memberikan "khidmat profesional untuk memenuhi kehendak harian perniagaan para pelanggan di Hong Kong, Cina dan antarabangsa," termasuk khidmat audit dan jaminan, rundingan pengurusan, perakaunan dan lain-lain, seperti apa yang tertera pada laman sesawangnya. Tidak ada sebarang petunjuk tentang apakah perniagaan Terasasi. Ia cuma disenaraikan dalam Pendaftaran Syarikat Hong Kong sebagai sebuah "syarikat tempatan". Bila ditanya tentang jenis urusan Terasasi, seorang pegawai kanan Union Alpha, Monique K.L. Chan, hanya berkata "Kami tidak boleh membincangkan hal2 sulit para pelanggan kami." Dia menujukan Asia Sentinel pada seorang ketua, yang dikatakannya sedang bermesyuarat. Ketuanya itu tidak menjawap permintaan untuk suatu panggilan telefon. Bagaimanapun, Terasasi terletak di tengah2 tuduhan yang sekurang2nya 36juta euro telah disalurkan menerusi akaunnya kepada Perdana Menteri Najib Abdul Razak sebagai komisen atas jualan 2 buah kapalselam Scorpene yang dibeli dari firma pertahanan Perancis Thales International, atau dikenali juga sebagai Thint Asia. 2 orang pengarah syarikat Terasasi HK, yang pada mulanya ditubuhkan di Malaysia, tersenarai dalam Pendaftaran Syarikat Hong Kong sebagai Abdul Razak Baginda, dulunya seorang sahabat rapat Najib, dan Abdul Malim Baginda, bapa Abdul Razak. Tiada sebarang maklumat, contohnya, bank2 mana yang berurusan dengan Terasasi, tetapi bank2 ini mungkin mula menumpukan perhatian. Ini adalah kerana akta pengubahan wang Hong Kong meletakkan kesalahan pada bank, peguam atau juruakaun jika mengendalikan harta yang mereka tahu atau mereka syaki merupakan hasil urusan jenayah berat. Pesalah boleh dipenjarakan sehingga 14tahun. Rekod mesti disimpan untuk mana2 urusan yang melebihi HK$8ribu, atau anggaran kasarnya USD1ribu (3ribu ringgit). extracted from asiasentinel.com as reported by John Berthelsen, Monday 30th April 2012: Is it just a sign on a Hong Kong door? For a company that allegedly received at least €36 million from an offshoot of the French defense company DCN, Terasasi (Hong Kong) Ltd is a mysterious company indeed. It is one of at least 142 names listed on the directory on the 19th floor of a skyscraper at 3 Lockhart Road in Hong Kong’s Wan Chai district. The 19th floor’s main tenant is a company called Union Alpha, the Hong Kong arm of an accounting firm that provides “professional services to meet clients’ daily business needs, both in Hong Kong, Greater China and globally,” including auditing and assurance services, management consulting, accountancy and other services, according to the firm’s website. There is no indication of what Terasasi’s business is. It is only listed in the Hong Kong Companies Registry as a “local company.” Asked about the nature of Terasasi’s operations, Monique K.L. Chan, a senior officer at Union Alpha, told Asia Sentinel that “We cannot discuss confidential matters of our clients.” She referred Asia Sentinel to her boss, whom she said was in a meeting. He did not immediately answer a request for a phone call. Terasasi, however, is at the center of allegations that at least some of the €36 million was funneled through its accounts to Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak as a commission on the sale of two Scorpene submarines purchased from the French defense company Thales International, also known as Thint Asia. The two directors of Terasasi Hong Kong, which was first incorporated in Malaysia, are listed in the Hong Kong Companies Registry as Abdul Razak Baginda, formerly one of Najib’s closest friends, and Razak Baginda’s father, Abdul Malim Baginda. There is no indication, for instance, who Terasasi’s bankers might be, but they might be beginning to take notice. That is because Hong Kong’s money-laundering law makes it an offense for bankers, lawyers or accountants to deal with property they know or have reasonable grounds to believe represents the proceeds serious crimes. Offenders are subject to a maximum of 14 years in prison. Records must be kept on any transaction over HK$8,000, the rough equivalent of US$1,000. UPDATED!!! A report leaks the conversation that took place on the day asia sentinel went to find out more about terasasi, at the office's main lobby... asia sentinel: miss, excuse me miss, what exactly is the nature of business conducted by this firm? terasasi staff: hah? apa orangputeh ni cakap kat aku nih??? aku bukannya belajar ppsmi... eh, apa dia tanya tu? (berpaling pada seorang staf lain yang baru melangkah masuk dari luar) *huh? what is this white man saying??? i didnt study (in) ppsmi (the learning of sciences and maths in english language)... eh, what is he asking? (turning to another staff who just walked through the front door) staff no.2: ala, dia tanya kau, kompeni ni buat bisnes apa...

(look of dismay) not aeroplane! up air, up air! (voice becoming frantic) you know... air... aaah... not air... asia sentinel: whaaat??! now it's not air anymore?? then what is it??? (voice becoming impatient) terasasi staff: aah... wind! business up wind! (grinning with relief) asia sentinel: wind?? as in, today it's very windy, the wind blows strongly, that kind of wind? terasasi staff: yes yes! (look of joy) asia sentinel: so, the firm produces alternative power using wind? terasasi staff: no! (look of dismay again) asia sentinel: then, the firm manufactures windmills? (rotating entire arm in a frantic effort to imitate windmill blades) terasasi staff: no! asia sentinel: the firm provides aerodynamic testing in wind tunnels? terasasi staff: no no no! (look of dismay) asia sentinel: still not right? oh god! so what is it then??! terasasi staff: business, up... wind! asia sentinel: up-wind??? that is such a mysterious term, i cant tell what mysterious business your company ventures in; gosh, i dont get you at all! you keep saying wind, and all i'm getting is gas... i better leave now before i break wind in front of you! (leaves hurriedly in disappointment) terasasi staff: ceh! orang puteh pengotor! (wajah meloya) *yuck! unhygienic white man! (look of disgust) staff no.2: kenapa kau ni? (melangkah masuk lobi semula) *what's with you? (steps into the lobby again) terasasi staff: tu, orang puteh tu, tanya aku banyak2, lepas tu nak kentut depan aku pulak! *that white man, he asked me lots of questions, then he wanted to break wind in front of me! staff no.2: heh! apa yang dia tanya? apa kau jawab? *heh! what did he ask? what did you answer? terasasi staff: kan tadi dia tanya, apa bisnes kompeni ni... aku pun jawab la, up wind, aku kata... tapi dia tak paham2... dia cakap misteri la, apa la... dia bengang sampai nak terkeluar kentut! *that question he asked earlier, what business does the company do... so i answered, up wind, i said... but he still didnt understand...he said it's a mystery bla bla bla... and he got upset until he felt like farting! staff no.2: up wind?? apa tu?? *up wind?? what's that?? terasasi staff: laaa... (wajah terkejut) kau pun tak paham ke??? simple english je tu, aku ni pun paham! kan kompeni ni buat bisnes up wind, bisnes atas angin! *oh no... (look of disbelief) you dont understand either??? it's simple english, even i understand it! dont you remember, this company does the up wind business (brokering business) staff no.2: hahah! patutlah orang puteh tu nak terkeluar kentut nak fahamkan apa kau cakap, kau pergi terjemah literal sebijik2, atas angin bukan up wind la, broker la! haha! klakka-la kau ni! *hahah! no wonder the white man developed gas problem to the point of farting in trying to chew over your words, you did a literal translation; it's not up wind, it's brokering! haha! you're funny!

Jadiii... siapa boleh bagitau apa situasi sekarang... sebabnya, 13hb April dah pun berlalu, jadi ada sesiapa yang merekodkan perkembangan baru??? Untuk menyegarkan semula ingatan kita, inilah yang agendadaily.com laporkan pada 12hb Mac:  Pada jam 2.09 petang Menteri Pembangunan Wanita,Keluarga dan Masyarakat Shahrizat Jalil tiba di komplek mahkamah dengan diiringi beberapa orang. Beliau tidak kelihatan berada di bangunan Parlimen semasa Yang Dipertuan Agong merasmikan sidang Parlimen penggal ini pagi Isnin. Suami beliau yang juga Pengerusi NFC, Dr Mohamed Salleh Ismail tiba  lebih awal dan dibawa ke Mahkamah Sesyen Jenayah 1. Prosiding mahkamah itu yang dikendali oleh Hakim SM Komathy Suppiah bermula jam 2.27 petang.Di situ hakim telah membacakan pertuduhan terhadap Dr Mohamed Salleh atas dua kes pecah amanah dan dua kes melanggar akta syarikat melibatkan wang melebihi RM49 juta. Bagi pertuduhan pertama, beliau didakwa sebagai pengarah syarikat NFC melakukan pecah amanah menyalahgunakan wang RM9,758,140 melalui empat keping cek untuk membiayai sebahagian pembelian dua unit kondominium 'One Menerung' di Parcel  BI-1 dan B1-2, Blok B di atas geran nombor 65152, lot no.56454 di Mukim Kuala Lumpur. Kesalahan tersebut dilakukan antara 1 dan 4 Dis 2009 di CIMB Islamic Bank Bhd, Jalan Burhanuddin Helmi Taman Tun Dr Ismail. Bagi pertuduhan kedua, di alamat dan bank sama, antara 6 Mei dan 16 Nov 2009, beliau didakwa melakukan kesalahan sama dengan memindahkan wang RM40 juta melalui satu cek ke dalam akaun syarikat National Meat & Livestock Corporation Sdn Bhd bagi kegunaan syarikat tersebut di mana beliau dan salah seorang anaknya adalah pemilik syarikat berkenaan. Untuk kedua-dua kesalahan ini beliau didakwa mengikut Seksyen 409 dan jika disabitkan boleh dipenjara sekurang-kurangnya dua tahun hingga 20 tahun dan sebat serta boleh didenda. Sementara itu, bagi pertuduhan pertama dan kedua mengikut Akta Syarikat, Dr Mohamad Salleh selaku pengarah NFC didakwa tanpa kebenaran mesyuarat agung telah menggunakan harta syarikat untuk membiayai sebahagian daripada pembelian dua unit kondominium tersebut. Bagi kedua-dua kesalahan ini, beliau didakwa mengikut Seksyen 132(2)(a) Akta Syarikat 1965, jika disabitkan boleh dipenjara sehingga lima tahun atau denda RM30,000 Dr Mohamed Salleh mengaku tidak bersalah keatas empat dakwaan itu dan mohon dibicarakan. Peguam Badrul Munir Bukhari yang mewakili Dr Mohamad Salleh meminta anak guamnya diikat jamin sebanyak RM100,000 dengan seorang penjamin dan sedia menyerahkan pasport kepada mahkamah sebagai syarat tambahan. Badrul juga memberitahu mahkamah bahawa peguam Datuk Seri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah akan bertindak sebagai peguam utama dan kini berada di luar negeri. "Anak guam saya telah memberi kerjasama penuh kepada polis dan pihak pendakwaan sepanjang penyiasatan sejak timbulnya kes ini dan kini berada di mahkamah untuk membersihkan namanya," kata Badrul. Timbalan Pendakwa Raya Dzulkifli Ahmad tidak membantah jaminan tersebut dan berkata beliau menyerahkan perkara tersebut kepada budi bicara mahkamah. Hakim Komathy berkata mahkamah telah mengambil kira keseriusan kes dan jumlah wang yang terlibat serta mahkamah tidak mahu dituduh memilih kasih dalam menetapkan jaminan. "Kes-kes seperti ini sebelum ini telah ditetapkan jaminan yang tinggi walaupun di dalam kes ini (pihak pendakwaan) tidak membantah jaminan seperti mana dicadangkan oleh pihak pembelaan," katanya. Beliau bagaimanapun kemudian menetapkan jaminan RM500,000 dengan seorang penjamin, serta dokumen perjalanan Dr Mohamad Salleh diserahkan kepada mahkamah dan menetapkan sebutan semula kes berkenaan pada 13 April depan. Anak sulung tertuduh, Wan Shahinur Izmir, 32, telah membayar jaminan tersebut. Badrul dibantu oleh Ahmad Redza Abdullah, sementara Dzulkifli dibantu oleh Timblan Pendakwa Raya Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud. Sooo... who can tell me what's going on here... I mean, April 13th had passed, so anybody keeping any update??? To refresh our memories, here is what nst.com.my reported back on March 13th: NATIONAL Feedlot Corporation (NFCorp) executive chairman Dr Mohamad Salleh Ismail pleaded not guilty after he was charged with 4 counts of criminal breach of trust (CBT) and misappropriation of almost RM50 million at the Sessions Court yesterday. With his wife, Women, Family and Community Development Minister Shahrizat Abdul Jalil, and eldest son, Wan Shahinur Izmir, looking on from the public gallery, Salleh claimed trial to all 4 charges. The 63-year-old was accused of banking in RM40 million into the account of his company, National Meat and Livestock Corporation Sdn Bhd (NMLC), at a CIMB Islamic Bank Bhd branch in Taman Tun Dr Ismail here between May 6 and Nov 16, 2009. Salleh also claimed trial to another two counts of CBT and misappropriation of RM9,758,140 belonging to NFCorp by purchasing two One Menerung Condominium units purportedly for NMLC. He is alleged to have committed the offence at the same bank branch between Dec 1 and Dec 4, 2009. Salleh is facing a maximum 20 years in jail, whipping and fine, if convicted. Deputy public prosecutor Dzulkifli Ahmad applied for the cases to be tried jointly. Judge S.M. Komathy Suppiah allowed it. Counsel Badrulmunir Bukhari urged the court to grant bail of RM50,000 for each charge in light of his client’s cooperation during investigation. He also reminded the court that the assets of his client’s company had been frozen since investigations began. “There is no risk my client will abscond,” Badrulmunir said. Gesturing towards the public gallery, he reminded the court that his client’s case had received significant media coverage. “He has voluntarily presented himself in court to clear his name.” He said Wan Shahinur Izmir was willing to act as bailor for his father. When the judge asked how old the son was, Wan Shahinur Izmir stood up in the public gallery and said he was 32. Komathy then set bail at RM500,000 for all charges and ordered Salleh surrender his travel documents before fixing April 13 for mention. The accused posted bail in the afternoon. Dzulkifli was assisted by DPPs Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud and Azimul Azami, while Salleh was also represented by Ahmad Reza Abdullah, Wan Azmir Wan Majid and Y. Seelan. Shahrizat, who was clad in a white baju kurung, turned up at the Jalan Duta court complex just after 2pm in a heavily tinted Proton Perdana with four police patrol cars.   She was accompanied by two employees and a police cordon was thrown around her as she walked into the complex. The minister, who announced she would be resigning from her cabinet position on Sunday, did not flash her signature smile at photographers but headed straight for Sessions Court 1.   Shahrizat said on Sunday that she would step down from her ministerial position once her three-year term as a senator ends on April 8. However, she will remain as Wanita Barisan Nasional and Wanita Umno chief. In the courtroom yesterday, Wan Shahinur Izmir greeted his mother before they sat at the public gallery. Wan Shahinur Izmir,  his brother, Izran, and sister, Wan Izzanah Fatimah, are directors of NFCorp. My Foot Note: We Don't Want Dirty! We Want Clean Elections! We Want Green! X Nuke! X Lynas!

Kenapa ABU (Asalkan Bukan UMNO-BN) - Prakata

LET'S LEARN AND UNDERSTAND

Why ABU (Anything But UMNO-BN) - Prewords

Ada orang walaupun tidak suka gelarannya, tetapi demi sumber kewangan harian sendiri malah untuk ahli keluarga maka terpaksa juga bekerja sebagai supir kepada tuanbesar. Itu masih okey, terpaksa berlenguhkaki dalam kesesakan bandaraya memandu bos ke sanasini kerapkali hingga tengahmalam dan selalu juga di hujungminggu yang sepatutnya diluang bersama keluarga, tetapi dapat juga merasa memandu kereta mewahmenjalar berkemilau. Ada yang lain terpaksa ke sanasini kerapkali secara jarakjauh tidakkira di hujungminggu atu semalaman, dengan menggengam kuat stering lori yang selalu rosak brek dan kadang2 pecah tayar di tengah2 lebuhraya yang bahangnya membakar setiap inci kulit di badan. Ada sebilangan yang amatsuka mendapat wang lebih lalu membuat kerjasampingan di hujungminggu atau sebelah malam setelah tamat waktu pejabat dengan menyewa daripada pemilik permit dan menjadi drebar teksi hingga larutmalam.Ada sebahagian yang bersifat usahawan lantas tatkala oranglain berkira2 hendak membeli kereta begitu begini, mereka pula diam2 mengumpul duit lalu membeli bas yang diusahakan sebagai bas sekolah atau bas kilang. Tetapi cuma ada 1pasangan yang diketahui umum di 1Malaysia ini yang mana si-suami tak semena2 suka pula digelar pemandu bas, sedangkan si-isteri bersifat diam2 mengumpul duit menabung dari kecil lalu berbelanja sakan membeli ituini apabila sudah besar gedempol! (eh, atau adakah ianya terbalik - si-suami yang suka menabung kemudian berbelanja boros sedangkan si-isteri pula yang suka menjadi drebar bas???) 1Malaysia, 1Malaysia... Ah, apapun, taklama selepas ini kita akan mulakan siri pembelajaran baru: Kenapa ABU? Sila tunggukan... Although disliking the label, but for the sake of daily source of income for themselves and even for family members, there are people who would still have to work as drivers to the big bosses. That is still okay, undergoing leg cramps in the city traffic jams driving the boss here and there, oft into late at nights and many times too at weekends which are supposed to be spent with the family, but at least they get to drive gleaming luxury cars. There are others who have to drive around here and there, often over long distances be it weekends or overnights, having to tightly grip the steering wheels of lorries that are prone to burst tyres and frequent faulty brakes in the middle of the highway with heat that burns every inch of the skin on their backs. Then there are people who simply love to earn extra money and commit to second jobs during weekends or at nights after normal office hours are over, by leasing from the permit holders and becoming taxi divers beyond midnights. There are also the entreprenurial lots who, whilst many people are doing the maths to buy this car or that, they in turn have silently been saving money and then buying buses which they operate as school or factory buses. But there is only 1couple widely known here in 1Malaysia whereby the husband, without apparent reason, likes to be labelled a bus driver, whereas the wife has been silently saving money in piggy banks since small, only to splurge-spend on this and that when she grows big and fat! (eh, or is it the other way round - the husband is the one who likes saving and then splurging, whilst the wife is the one who likes to be the bus driver???) 1Malaysia, 1Malaysia... Ah, whatever it is, soon after this, we will begin on a new learning series: Why ABU? Please hold on... My Foot Note: We Don't Want Dirty! We Want Bersih 3.0! We Want Green! X Nuke! X Lynas!

Kerajaan 1Malaysia - Dulu, Kini dan Selamanya

LET'S LEARN AND UNDERSTAND:

The 1Malaysia Government - Then, Now and Forever

A picture is worth a thousand words... But often times a picture requires a thousand accompanying words in order for it to be clearly understood by an uninitiated few, or by many who have been so deeply entrenched in endless misdirections by people with resources, influence and agenda, that they have simply become unaware of the real truths. 1Malaysia, 1Malaysia... Unfortunate for you because the chiefs who supposedly lead and steer this country of ours... generally are... oh Lord, if we belittle them, they'd jump... but heck, this ventricle has long suffered burning pains, holding back anger and frustration; therefore, i'm not gonna apologize for all the insults in here... of the stupid, arrogant lots! Eh, angry? Don't want to believe it? Want proof? Huh! The photos above are the proofs! These photos (thanks to manjongmari.blogspot) silently portray a thousand meanings which reflect the traits of the UBN Government all along the decades that they have been made (oh Lord have mercy!) leaders (gosh, when will the jinx end?!) Well, now let's learn and understand what these boring photos reflect: 1.People 'at the top' (no wonder the public has been stepped on all the time!) are usually surrounded by a few who try to give spontaneous advice (correct or not, sincere or not, only God knows) 2.People 'at the top' (ugh, nauseating!) on the other hand, usually reject the advice, spontaneously too, whether because they feel the advisors are not of the same level and not that good, or they feel that they themselves are already great thus not requiring any pointers (hence, arrogantly stupid!) Note: But often too, the arrogant fools are actually only snobbish, not dumb, but instead are very conniving, pretending to sweep aside the offered opinions, only later to quietly use the same - and claiming that the ideas are their own brainchild! 3.The arrogant fools, due to their arrogance, or sometimes because of being not too smart, often start or continue with a policy or project drummed up as correct, great or problem-free, without an exhaustive investigation beforehand, thereafter committing blunders which are only discovered midway, thereby forced to make a u-turn, at which point though, lots have already been wasted on time, effort and expenses! Note: More saddening, embarassing and hurting the left and right atria is when the stupid snobs do not even realize their own mistakes, henceforth happily displaying their dumb work for all to see as a proud achievement! 4.The snob leaders too will not be void from surrounded by a group of people none other than: the a**-kissing bootlickers! Suatu gambar bernilai seribu perkataan... Tapi seringkali suatu gambar perlu diiringi seribu perkataan supaya ianya jelas kepada segolongan kecil yang kurang pengalaman, atau segolongan besar yang telah terperangkap terlalu dalam dengan pengeliruan bertali-arus buatan pihak yang mepunyai sumber, pengaruh dan agenda, hinggakan mereka semata2 sudah tidak kenal yang manakah kebenaran hakiki. 1Malaysia, 1Malaysia... Malang nasibmu ialah kerana chiep yang kunun2 meneraju mengemudi negaraku ini... rata2nya golongan... adoi la, kalau kita kutuk mengata, melompat... tapi gasaklah, ulu ventrikel dah lama sakitpedih memendam marah dan kecewa, maka tidaklah aku akan mintakmaap atas segala kutukan di sini... golongan bodohsombong! Aik, marah? Tak percaya? Nak bukti? Hah! Gambar di atas lah buktinya! Gambar ni (terimakasih kepada manjongmari. blogspot) dengan diam memaparkan seribu makna yang mencerminkan ciri2 Kerajaan UBN selama berdekad dijadikan (Masya Allah!) ketua (adoi, bila la suwey nak lari nih?!) Baiklah, mari belajar dan memahami apa maksud gambar2 bosan ni: 1.Orang 'atas' (patutlah orangramai asek kena pijak2 je!) selalunya dikelilingi beberapa orang yang cuba memberi nasihat spontan (betul ke tidak, ikhlas atau tidak, wallahu'alam) 2.Orang 'atas' (ish, meluatnya!) pula selalunya menolak pandangan itu, juga dengan spontan, samada kerana mereka rasakan pemberi nasihat bukanlah setara dan bagus mana pun, atau mereka rasakan diri mereka sendiri sudah cukup hebat lantaran tidak memerlukan sebarang tunjukajar (itu sebab digelar bodohsombong!) Catatan: Tapi selalu juga si-bodohsombong ni sebenarnya cuma sombong, tidak bodoh, sebaliknya sangat licik, pura2 mengenepikan nasihat yang diajukan, tetapi selepas itu dalam diam menggunakannya - dan mengaku itu adalah hasil buahfikiran kepalahotaknya sendiri! 3.Si-bodohsombong, akibat kesombongannya, atau kadang2 akibat kurang pandai, kerap memula atau meneruskan sesuatu polisi atau projek yang diwar2kan sebagai betul, bagus atau tiada masalah, tanpa kajiselidik yang cukup mendalam terlebih dahulu, lalu melakukan kesilapan yang hanya disedari setelah separuhjalan, lalu terpaksa berpatah arah sedangkan ketika itu telahpun banyak masa, tenaga dan belanja disia2kan Catatan: Lebih menyedih, mengaib dan menyakitkan atrium kirikanan ialah apabila si-bodohsombong tak sedar pun kesilapannya sendiri, lalu dengan girang menunjukkan hasilkerja bodohnya untuk tontonan orangramai sebagai satu kejayaan membanggakan! 4.Si-bodohsombong juga tak akan sepi dari dikelilingi segolongan yang taklain takbukan ialah: kaki ampu! Note: Furthermore, there is another group who hover around like flies. They have a hobby of chasing after cheap publicity 5.Lastly, there is always a group of intelligents and people highly experienced in their respective fields, but, woeful is an understatement, these people belong to the no-balls species, infected with a syndrome rendering them mute; although they are aware of, or at least suspicious of, a wrongdoing, yet for them the 'people at the top' are untouchables, instead this group only has the guts to direct their lessons, lectures and preaches towards the wrongs and weaknesses of people perceived as being 'below' where they themselves stand, like youths in the cities, or village folks whenever they go back to their hometowns! This is the true picture of the country's leadership then, now and hopefully not going to be forever, as insinuatively portrayed above. Funny. Sad. Boiling. My Foot Note: Imagine if the Indons or the Banglas imported to build football stadium, bridges, walls of a new parliament costing 800M, walls of the new national palace costing 800M, or walls of factory buildings for lynas, and these contract workers, just like the UBN leader above, happily and proudly go lay the bricks in similar manner, what will happen??! Guaranteed, within only several months the wall would start to crack and may collapse thereafter! (eh, haven't there been stadium, bridges, roads, parliament and various other walls/structures in 1malaysia all along the UBN administration which have indeed cracked/ collapsed??? Go figure!) Catatan: Tambahan lagi, ada pula segolongan yang menghurung bagai lalat iaitu kaki 'enter frame' yang hobinya mengejar publisiti murahan 5.Terakhir, sentiasa ada golongan bijakpandai dan berpengalaman dalam bidang masing2, tetapi malang seribu  kali malang, golongan ini spesis tiada telur yang telah dihinggapi penyakit bisu; walaupun mereka sedar atau sekurang2nya syak ada kesalahan, namun baginya 'orang atas' itu tidakboleh disentuh, sebaliknya golongan ini hanya berani menujukan kelas, syarahan dan tarbiyah mereka terhadap kesalahan atau kelemahan golongan yang dianggap 'bawah' dari mereka sendiri, contohnya anak2muda di bandar, atau orang2 kampung ketika mereka balik berhariraya! Inilah gambaran sebenar pimpinan negara dulu, kini dan harap2 tidak akan selamanya, yang tersirat dalam gambar di atas. Kelakar. Sedih. Menyirap Catatan tapakkakiku: Bayangkan jika Mat Indon atau Bangla yang diimpot membina stadium bolasepak, jambatan, tembok parlimen baru berharga 800juta, tembok istana negara baru bernilai 800juta, atau tembok bangunan kilang lynas, lalu pekerja kontrek ini, seperti pemimpin UBN di atas, dengan gembira dan bangga pergi ikat batu sedemikian gaya, apakah akan jadi??! Jamin, beberapa bulan sahaja maka tembok pun akan mula retak dan seterusnya boleh runtuh! (eh, bukan ke stadium, jambatan, jalan, parlimen dan berbagai lagi tembok/struktur dalam 1malaysia sepanjang pentadbiran UBN nih memang dah ada yang retak/ runtuh??? Lu pikirlah sendiri!)

PPSMI is about the learning of SCIENCES and MATHEMATICS using the English Language in primary as well as secondary schools... the objective of PPSMI is so that children will graduate from schools with a high COMMAND OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE; henceforth CAN COMPETE GLOBALLY IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CAREER... PPSMI is thought of, brainstormed, sowed, planted, executed, cared for, and defended by 1Malaysia's POLITICAL LEADERS... if one learns SCIENCES, then SCIENTIFIC names and terms will be learned... if one learns MATHEMATICS, then MATHEMATICAL terms will be learned... therefore, the schoolkids may learn of SCIENTIFIC and MATHEMATICAL names and terms which are taught in ENGLISH (and no longer recognize those same terms in Bahasa Malaysia)... for example, they may know words like test tube (no longer 'tabung uji'), ultra violet (no longer 'lampau ungu'), density (no longer 'ketumpatan'), dan differentiation (no longer 'pengkerbedaan')... furthermore, they may also know names and terms like biology (no longer 'biologi'), physics (no longer 'fizik'), mathematics (no longer 'matematik'), photosynthesis (no longer 'fotosintesis'), hydrocloric acid (no longer 'asid hidroklorik'), trajectory (no longer 'trajektori'), calculus(no longer 'kalkulus'), negative (no longer 'negatif'), graph (no longer 'graf'), statistics (no longer 'statistik'), and hundreds maybe thousands more SCIENTIFIC and MATHEMATICAL names and terms in ENGLISH which they may learn, know and understand; hence, they achieve a high level of COMMAND OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE; thereby, ABLE TO COMPETE GLOBALLY IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CAREER!!! oh, but what if some of these kids (or more than half of them) get out from their schooling years and decide to choose a career OUTSIDE OF THE SCIENCES LINE (and mathematics line as well, since generally mathematics is closely affiliated with sciences) - for examples, jobs as politicians, singers or artists (when we talk about politicians, quite often we link them to artists too), painters, writers, journalists, and lawyers??? 1Malaysia, 1Malaysia... PPSMI adalah pembelajaran SAINS dan MATEMATIK menggunakan Bahasa Inggeris di sekolah2 rendah mahupun menengah... tujuan PPSMI ialah supaya murid2 mengakhiri persekolahan dengan PENGUASAAN BAHASA INGGERIS yang tinggi lalu dapat BERSAING SECARA GLOBAL DALAM KERJAYA MASING2... PPSMI dicetus, difikirmasak, dibenih, ditanam, dilaksana, dijaga dan dipertahan oleh PEMIMPIN2 POLITIK 1Malaysia... kalau belajar SAINS, maka nama2 dan perkataan SAINTIFIK bakal dipelajari... kalau belajar MATEMATIK, perkataan2 MATEMATIK dipelajari... maka murid2 tersebut mungkin kenal nama2 dan perkataan SAINTIFIK dan MATEMATIK yang diajar dalam Bahasa Inggeris (bukan lagi mengenali perkataan2 sama dalam Bahasa Malaysia)... contohnya, mereka mungkin kenal perkataan2 seperti test tube (bukan lagi 'tabung uji'), ultra violet (bukan lagi 'lampau ungu'), density (bukan lagi 'ketumpatan'), dan differentiation (bukan lagi 'pengkerbedaan')... tambahan lagi, mereka juga mungkin mengenali nama2 dan perkataan seperti biology (bukan lagi 'biologi'), physics (bukan lagi 'fizik'), mathematics (bukan lagi 'matematik'), photosynthesis (bukan lagi 'fotosintesis'), hydrocloric acid (bukan lagi 'asid hidroklorik'), trajectory (bukan lagi 'trajektori'), calculus(bukan lagi 'kalkulus'), negative (bukan lagi 'negatif'), graph (bukan lagi 'graf'), statistics (bukan lagi 'statistik'), dan ratusan mungkin ribuan lagi pelbagai nama dan perkataan SAINTIFIK dan MATEMATIK dalam Bahasa Inggeris yang mungkin mereka pelajari, kenali dan fahami, lantaran mereka mencapai tahap PENGUASAAN BAHASA INGGERIS yang tinggi lalu dapat BERSAING SECARA GLOBAL DALAM KERJAYA MASING2!!! oh, tapi bagaimana kalau sebahagian daripada murid2 tersebut (atau lebih dari setengah dari kalangan mereka) keluar dari alam persekolahan lalu memilih KERJAYA DI LUAR BIDANG SAINS (dan bidang matematik juga, kerana amnya matematik berkait rapat dengan bidang sains) - contohnya kerjaya sebagai politikus, penyanyi atau artis (bila menyebut tentang ahli politik, kerap juga kita kaitkan dengan golongan artis), pelukis, penulis, wartawan dan peguam???

Nostalgia Lagu Retro: Senyumlah Kuala Lumpur
(Retro Song Nostalgia: Smile, Oh Kuala Lumpur)

Penyanyi Asal (Original Singer): Alleycats Lagu Asal (Original Song): M. Nasir Lirik Asal (Original Lyric): S. Amin Shahab Kuala Lumpur (Kuala Lumpur) Senyuman mu di pagi ini (Your smile, on this morning) Sungguh bererti (Means so much) Kerna cinta bersemi lagi (Because love blooms again) Setelah kemarau panjang (After a long drought) Di lebuhraya di papan tanda (At the highway, on the signboard) Tergambar wajah Moo (I see the face of Moo) Dengan kalimah: Condo untuk kita (With the line: Condo for us) Semoga kekal selamanya (Hopefully this lasts forever) ******* ******* Untuk peminat Mahathir (yang mudah lupa), serta projek PPSMI buahfikir kepalahotak bergeliga ular-kuat-belit beliau, lalu tidak paham loghat Negoghi 9, berikut ialah terjemahan bahasa skema untuk skrip si-Pakcik: Bingkai 1: Ya, barulah sekarang ada masa dapat melawat, ini baru pertama kali pakcik menjejak kaki di Kuala Lumpur! Mak ai! Sesudah sampai di sini, tibatiba pakcik terasa sangat lapar pula, rasa teringin hendak memakan daging salai masak lemak cili api! Bingkai 2: Eh, tiada masa hendak rindurindu pada isteri pakcik itu! Cuma, pakcik tengok di Kuala Lumpur ini, kirikanan ada sahaja kondo, berderet! Itulah yang buatkan pakcik teringat lembulembu pakcik! Rindu pada Si-Aiman, seekor lembu pakcik yang sedang elok umurnya untuk korban, kalau disalai buat masak lemak pedas, fuh, sedap! Sudahlah, mari laju sedikit, cepatlah pakcik sampai ke rumah anak! ******* For fans of Mahathir (who easily forgets), and the PPSMI project thought up by his cunningly witty brain, thereby not being able to comprehend Bahasa Malaysia, let alone the Negeri 9 dialect, here is the translation: Frame 1: 1Day in 1KL... Cabbie: Uncle, are you going to your kid's place, here in KL? Uncle: Yes, only now I have time to visit; this is the first time I set foot in Kuala Lumpur! Wow! Now that I'm here, I suddenly feel extremely hungry, I feel like having smoked beef cooked in hot, spicy coconut milk gravy! Frame 2: Cabbie: What, didn't you manage to eat first at home earlier? Or, is it that Uncle is already missing your wife back in the village? Uncle: Ah, I don't have time to miss my wife! It's just that, I see Kuala Lumpur is lined with rows of condos! They remind me of my cows! I miss Aiman, a calf which is already just nice for slaughter; if he is smoked and cooked in hot, spicy coconut milk gravy, fooh, simply delicious! Enough, drive faster, so I can reach my kid's place quickly! ******************************************************************** Sama2 kita rai dan bantu menyemarak kebangkitan perjuangan gerakan ABU.
