Polyamory? What the ??!!!!

Cerita-cerita Malaysia pulak la yea...bila kita baru balik drp oversea ni, nak la keep updated dgn apa yg berlaku di keliling kelalang kita...rumah saya (rumah ayah sebenarnya) melanggan newpaper The Star...so bacalah saya tiap2 hari masa duk rehat tu perkembangan semasa, apa rakyat Mesia duk pk...

Semalam pasal kes BRAIN DRAIN in Malaysia...ilmiah jugak la...nanti la ada masa inshaAllah sy nak komen...tapi today, yg mmg saya terpanggil utk komen ialah artikel ygbertajuk loving many = loving more. Ayo yooooo, sakit jiwa membaca...apa ceritanya ni? Basically, paper ni menggalakkan utk org having more than one relationship (man and women) , well, takpelah kalau polygamy, wat secara legally seme ada hak masing2...ni tak...mrk mengadvocate...OPEN RELATIONSHIP...

Haaa....apa pulak ni...basically, sorang tu, tak kira la laki kah, perempuan kah boleh ada more than one LOVER dan yg lover2 lain tu seme sepakat utk redha , tskk...basically seme wat la open relationship ni....for example, Miss Tina ada Richard, Tony, Andrew utk jadi pasnagannya, satu to fill the mental aspect, one for the emotional aspect and another for sexual aspect.... Dan setiap satu lelaki tu pun ada lover2s yg lain....

Idok ke hancur dunia ni? Pelik sungguh surat khabar sekarang ni, dgn tak malu dan tak segan silu meng war warkan yg zina (seks luar nikah, partners) ni is now should be accepted and is very trendy!! And this is in a Malaysian newspaper...yg supposedly negara Islam?

Ada artikel lain bawah tu, siap cerita pengalaman sorang org Melayu yg nama Zul tentang open relationship ni...katanya skrg perempuan2 yg berkerjaya dan gaji tinggi banyak mengamalkan many lovers ni dan ini di pelopori oleh perasaan feminism yg nak sama ratakan lelaki dan perempuan..dan org Islam pun ada banyak sexual partners...macamana la Encik Zul ni tak malu nya boleh mengaku camtu? Ohhhh dunia akhir zaman......

Depa yg advocate open relationship ni kata, lebih baik macam ni drp yg kawin tapi duk main kayu tiga kut belakang...jadi dalam kes depa ni, seme org setuju dan happy...depa duk bagi statistic yg ramai org dah kawin tapi having mistress or mister lain...tak dinafikan skrg ni ramai yg perkahwinan nya hancur lebur duk 'cari makan' kat luar....tapi this does not mean that we should go the other way of accepting concept many lovers ni!!

Oh Malaysiaku...beginilah nasib kalau manusia mengikut hawa nafsu, akal fikiran sendiri utk menafsir apa yg baik dan apa yg buruk...apa yg normal dan apa yg abnormal...apa yg acceptable dan apa yang tidak.....

Cubalah baca sendiri artikel di bawah ni...and let me know what you think....

ps : Hanya Islam yg mampu membawa semua kembali waras...kembali kepada fitrah kemanusiaan...

xxx Ana Muslim yg pening, duk negara sendiri tapi rasa cam duk kat negara barat je...

Loving many = loving more?

Stories by ANDREW SIA

Last week, we looked at spouses who stray. The alternative to monogamy, some suggest, is polyamory

RAYMOND spends two nights a week at the condo of Susan, who also meets up with Michael for meals, movies and sometimes “a bit more” at his place. Yew Ling is Raymond’s occasional travel cum romance partner on short holidays. Michael also has a few companions cum girlfriends.

All the parties know about each other and are cool about it – a classic open relationship. These well-educated, middle-class, English-speaking Malaysian Chinese, all living around the Klang Valley, are a nascent example of polyamory (literally, many loves).

A Newsweek article last July calls it “the next sexual revolution”.

“I don’t believe in marriage,” says Susan, a marketing manager in her mid-30s, who earns a five-figure salary. “Many people stay married not because they are genuinely in love, but because of the children. Or they can’t manage financially. Others are just too afraid of the social repercussions of divorce.”

Susan feels it will be too “demanding and exhausting” for one person to provide for all her needs. Raymond fulfils her sexually, and Michael, mentally, she says.

My PhD story : Part II

Maaf, tergendala lama juga sebelum boleh menyambung siri ni...terima kasih kepada komen2 yg diberikan, inshaAllah bertambah semangat nak sambung siri ni ;-)

continuation from part I

Why optoelectronics?

Firstly, my degree was in Electrical and Electronic engineering from Cardiff University, there the emphasis was more on the electrical machines and power system. So, I am more familiar with machines and drives subject compared to other fields. Belum habis degree ada company from Malaysia dtg wat interview in Cardiff..the company is called Malaysia Microelectronics Solutions Sdn. Bhd... the company does chip design using CMOS technology...guess what, I went to the interview...mula2 tu saja je test market...tup tap, the boss (CEO of the company) who came was really islamic and this attracted my attention and I decided to take the job (although at that time, I was not even sure what CMOS is!)...

The company is actually an IC design company, so mostly deals with semiconductor, in particular the silicon technology (CMOS). My first day there, I was given a paper test, with basic questions on Logic gates and CMOS design..huhu, I think I failed the exam...out of 10 maybe i just got 1 right! Sedey betul...the technical boss I think was surprised at why the CEO took me for the job...but I made a point to study real hard to understand their business and technical details...It was the toughest first two months, but alhamdulillah in the end, I manage to understand what they were discussing in the meetings :)

The point of the story above is that semiconductor is actually a bidan terjun field for me...i dont know much about it...i knew just enough for the job...and yet...i've done a PhD in semiconductors , huhu...

So, back to the questions, why semiconductor, why optoelectronics? To those of you who are not familiar with optoelectronics, it means electronics that deals with light. Yeap, laser is a field in optoelectronics, detector is also in it, solar cell, LEDs.. At first, i want to do renewable energy for my PhD...either wind energy or solar energy (niatnya so that leh bantu negara2 miskin utk generate electricity)...but Loughborough Univ had a problem with their online form system and lost my application...the one who replied very fast and keenly was Sheffield univ, under Dr. John David (at that time he wasn't a proffesor yet)

Pakcik John punya field ialah detectors...saya takde la minat sangat, huhu..tapi pakcik tu pandai, kata field dia leh gak wat solar cells, lasers seme...maka saya termakan la juga kata2 manis tu...plus lepas solat istikharah berkali2...saya rasa tenteram utk sambung dgn pakcik ni...with the perception that whatever happens after that will be the best that can happen to me, (i believe this is the path that Allah guide me to do)....so i started my PhD under him....

To be honest, if somebody asked me at that time, awak minat ke engineering ni? My answer was... not really....and if somebody ask me again the same question, after 5 years of PhD , my answer will still be...i dont think so....

then came the question, how come you manage to do well in your first degree (with a first class honors) and manage to complete your PhD altho it took you 5 years? ...

I always believe that whatever we do is amanah...so when we are given an amanah, we must make sure we do the best of our ability to complete it and achieve the best of our potential....even if we don't really like to do it...so the solution is to struggle and force oneself...Alhamdulillah Allah gave me the ability to force myself to do something altho I dont like it, but forcing myself out of responsibility....I feel responsible to show to the Mat Salleh and non-muslims alike that muslim women are not oppressed, are not stupid and can be as smart or even smarter than them...I feel responsible to show that a practising muslim is capable of working hard and in the same time upholding her principles...I feel that I am representing the muslim ummah....how can I do lebih kurang, ye dak? :)

Thats why, dengan segala mehnah dan dugaan yg menimpa masa stadi ni... I still manage to cope (well, sometimes barely coping)...because I believe Allah is on myside...and doing dakwah in the same time strengthen my belief and hopefullness....I always believe Allah will never ever zalim towards his servants....and Allah's promise in the holy Quran...Intansurullaha yansurkum....If you help in Allah's way, Allah will surely help you...

ok cukup dulu entry buat kali ni... next part is sharing on the trials and tribulations of PhD life...

ps: Buat Suria, kalau su nak jadi lecturer, leh la wat PhD...kalau tak, entahlah, kadang2 rasa tak perlu buat PhD ni...(kalau setakat nak prove to oneself)...sbb banyak at stake wat PhD ni..bukan kita je yg go thro it, suami kita, anak2 kita...yg paling elok, istikharah banyak2, minta Allah bg petunjuk...inshaAllah itulah keputusan terbaik :)

Sumbangan warga Sheffield kpd anak-anak yatim Darul Falah, Terengganu

Alhamdulillah... pada awal bulan Januari 2010, sumbangan dari sahabat-sahabat melayu Sheffield telah selamat di sampaikan kepada anak-anak yatim di Darul Falah, Kuala Terengganu. Wakil MSM Sheffield yang hadir ialah Ukhti Azimah, Ustaz Yusof dan Ukhti Fadzlin di iringi oleh ibu, emak saudara dan nenek ukhti Fadzlin. Kami di sambut meriah oleh anak-anak yatim disana dan juga warden yg bertugas ketika itu. Jumlah sumbangan terdiri drp barangan carboot...buku-buku bacaan dalam bahasa inggeris dan juga board games. Kelihatan anak-anak muda di sana teruja dengan board games yg diberi dan tidak sabar-sabar untuk menggunakannya.

Terima kasih kepada semua warga Sheffield yang telah menyumbang...moga usaha kecil ini akan membantu dalam memperbanyakkan sedeqah jariah kita dan menjadi pemberat timbangan kita di akhirat kelak. Di harap sumbangan seperti ini dapat diteruskan di tahun ini dan tahun-tahun yg akan mendatang....

Berikut adalah gambar-gambar yang sempat dirakam buat tatapan bersama...

Selamat Tinggal Sheffield... 30/12/09

Maaf lah, lama betul tak mengupdate blog ni...terpersona dgn kesibukan dan keterlenaan dek buaian tanah air Malaysia yg dicintai...

Di sini kami ingin mengucapkan ribuan terima kasih kepada sahabat2 yg menjemput kami makan dirumah di saat2 akhir kami berada di UK dan juga yg dtg menziarahi kami...jazakumullahu khairan...

Special thanks buat sahabat yg menghantar kami ke Manchester airport pada tanggal 31 tersebut...kami sangat terharu dgn kesudian antum semua drive dan pergi ke Manchester semata-mata mengiringi kami...Moga Allah mengganjari antum semua dgn sebaik-baik ganjaran...

Dibawah adalah sedikit gambar kita di airport...menjadi kenangan indah :)




Tak lupa juga kepada antum semua yg tolong membersihkan rumah kami pada malam sebelum bertolak ke Malaysia...masa tu tak tau nak kata penat camana...mujur ada antum semua...Terima kasih banyak2, sgt2 membantu...Kami doakan Allah mengganjari antum dgn ganjaran yg amat banyak, ameen....

Jazakumullahu khairan katheeran......

My PhD story : Part I

Saya ada cita-cita.... cita-cita saya utk mengeluarkan buku mengumpul cerita-ceriti phD-phD student yg telah menamatkan study masing2...sama ada di akhirnya mrk berjaya atau pun tidak...

Kenapa? Sebagai pengajaran dan hikmah buat mereka di luar sana yg inshaAllah akan buat PhD, ataupun mrk yg ada insan yg terdekat yg akan buat PhD...pada dasarnya maybe hanya 10-15% sahaja drp the whole population yg akan buat PhD....tak ramai, jadi nature of PhD ni tak diketahui ramai sgt org...

Saya bertuah krn ayah saya buat PhD juga...jadi saya tahu la lebih kurang bagaimana naturenya...cumanya, biasala anak remaja time tu, kalau ayah yg bgtahu, ala2 tak caye gitu, huhu...tapi because of his experience, he can advise me accordingly...bagaimana pula yg mrk2 yg takde org terdekat yg pernah buat PhD? I don't think they have a clue what PhD requires out of them...so, perhaps one day, a book of this type will be able to help and guide them, or at least share our experiences with them....

Panjang jugak nak cerita ni...al maklum, a history of 5 years of my life....and interestingly, semua cerita PhD masing2 adalah unik...so, we actually we can learn from each other, inshaAllah...

Mana nak mula ek?

1) Pre- PhD story

My quest of PhD scholarship started after i resigned from a cyberjaya company as an IC designer. The company was a private company, small but yet very busy. I started to realise that I cannot keep living my life like that. Balik lambat, balik pun dah stress sgt, makan pun lebih kurang...esok the same, stress dan berlambak kerja....weekend pula masih duk fikir problem2 yg tak leh solve masa kat tempat kerja....hidup jadi sangat penat....nak pergi usrah pun rasa betapa terbebannya...tu masa masih single! Takleh bayangkan kalau dah ada famili...saya sanggup gaji tak setinggi kerja di situ for a quality of life...life that is worth living for!

Di takdirkan time tu saya ada kawan yg baru habis PhD...Kak Miza...she was an engineer before then quit and started her pHD and and worked as a lecturer in one the university in Malaysia... I remember once I asked her...do you love what you are doing now? (ie. lecturing)...and she replied unhesitatingly " THE BEST JOB EVER!"... and after that I too wanted the best job ever tu jugak...hehehe...so i surveyed and applied work as a tutor in UNITEN, and the purpose was solely to get a scholarship to do PhD (direct, without masters)....mind you, zaman tu, 2002 takde org lagi wat PhD direct ni...seme biasanya wat masters pastu phD...jadi kalau nak wat cam tu, kene fight gak la, sbb nak convince kan org2 atas....

well, to cut the story short...I was accepted into Uniten and they promised me in the interview that I will be able to do the PhD direct in UK...lepas kerja dalam 4 bulan, they called me and told me that TNB now having money crisis and not able to sponsor me...they can only sponsor me to do twinning PhD....of course this is not why i applied there, so, i decided to give my resignation letter and started to search for other universities which can give me what I want...

UIA or UPM?

I actually applied for two universities, UPM and UIA...UPM because my father told me it will be a good one coz it is near to our house in Seri Kembangan and it is an established univ....UIA because I love the idea of teaching majority muslim students...unlike Uniten, majority of the students are non-muslims...and I had experiences that crushed my heart and hope for the students...I do teach whole heartedly, and I do not want my spirit, energy, enthusiasm went to waste...so UIA suits this criteria very much...

I was accepted in both universities...(oh yes, for undergrad students, getting a first class honours really does help you in applying for work in academia)...the dean of the engineering faculty of UPM, even spares some time to have a chat with me...however, as the stories goes, i ended up in UIA...the interview and the university really do impress me, the mission and vision of UIA...all hits the right keys...and of course they have also promised my PhD quest...

Why do a PhD?

This is a must question for anybody wanting to pursue a PhD...and the niyyah may actually change over the years of doing the PhD...however the initial intention is important...like most tutors in universities, in order to be a lecturer we need a PhD, a doctorate...so do I...Plus actually at that time, I wanted to be like my father...i want to have a PhD just like my ayah...and i was really determined and seperti ramai org2 muda, always positive thinking! hehe...

Selepas masuk beberapa bulan kerja...UIA told me that now the country is having a recession, and the economy is too bad to sponsor many students to UK...For that year, 2004, KPT only offered 4 places for staff to study in UK (yes, for all faculties in UIA, all have to compete for that4 places)...and.the rest have to go to other cheaper countries...(masa tu, exchange rate in UK started to rise to 7!)....Of course, I was thoroughly devastated hearing the news plus marah gak la...because they had promised me!!

However, being stubborn as I am, I determined to be one of the four chosen staff ...at that time I already contacted a few universities in UK...and the fastest response was...guess who? hehehe...well my current supervisor, Prof. John David....I told him that I am having this problem now on the scholarship and he said he will help me as much as possible to secure the scholarship. I personally have a meeting with the dean of engineering at that time and told him, i really want to do this PhD...and i would like his support. Of course tak mudah la sesi tu huhu, sampai merah2 muka dean tu masa tu, hehe, but I was really determined...and in the end he asked me to collect the statistics of Univ. Of sheffield and write a small report of the credibility of the university and the group I am applying for. Of course, I didn't do this myself...john helped me all the way...my dean then were convinced and he said he will backed me up in the senate nye meeting...

To cut story short again.... alhamdulillah, Allah blessed me with the good news....i was chosen to go to UK for that year! Huh, panjang story nak ke boleh wat PhD ni...panjang lagi story masa wat PhD, hehe....then I realised, whatever it is I have to get a PhD as i was trusted by UIA to choose me amongst berpuluh2 staff yg apply tahun tu...it is surely an amanah...

Ok lah sambung lain masa nanti...to come...why do optoelectronics?

ManuSia SeRinG meNoLaK HiDaYaH?

Rambut sama hitam,hati lain-lain.Itulah manusia.Ada manusia yang sungguh-sungguh berdoa meminta agar diberikan hidayah.Namun ada juga manusia yang beria-ia menolak hidayah dan langsung tidak berusaha untuk mengapainya.Bagaimana dikatakan menolak?

Menuru Muhammad al-Mu"afa,terdapat beberapa perbuatan yang boleh di anggap menolak hidayah iaitu:

1.Berpaling daripada hukum Allah s.w.t.
2.Mengelak daripada melakukan ketaatan kepada Allah s.w.t.
3.Berpaling daripada tanda-tanda kekuasaan_Nya serta keesaan-Nya.
4.Mengelak daripada membelanjakan wang di jalan Allah.
5.Tidak suka berzikir menyebut nama Allah.
6.Lalai mengingati akhirat.
7.Tidak membaca al-quran dan merenungi isi kandungannya apatah lagi beramal dengan ajaranya.
8.Tidak bersyukur dengan nikmat dan sebarang kurniaan yang telah diberikan Allah kepadanya.
9.Terlalu mengikut hawa nafsu.
10.Mudah terpesona dengan godaan syaitan dan tipu dayanya.
11.Memekakkan telinga daripada mendengar peringatan-peringatan.

Apa hukum berpaling daripada hidayah?

Menurut Ibn Hajar al-Haithimi dalam kitabnya,Al-Zawajir"an Iqtiraf al_kabair,menolak hidayah merupakan dosa besar lebih besar daripada dosa mencuri,berzina dan lain-lain kerana mempunyai kesan yang sangat buruk terhadap pelakunya.

Examiners of my viva

Ni external examiner, nama dia Dr. Stephen Sweeney....drp Surrey University. Some details on him :

Stephen's primary research interests lie in the area of semiconductor laser physics with a particular onus on optimising laser performance. He has produced >150 journal papers and conference proceedings in this area including several invited papers. Stephen has recently expanded his interests into photonic sensors based on both III-V and Si technologies. Recent topics include:

• semiconductor lasers for temperature insensitive operation (quantum dots, dilute-nitrides etc)
• widely tunable lasers
• vertical cavity surface emitting lasers and LEDs for plastic fibre systems
• semiconductor lasers for optical pumping (EDFA, Raman) and printing and data storage applications
• using photonic devices to sense chemical and biological samples (liquids and gases)

Yang ni pulak internal examiner, Dr. Kristian Groom. Details on him :

Kristian received the MPhys and Ph.D degrees from the Department of Physics & Astronomy at The University of Sheffield, in 1999 and 2003, respectively. He then joined the Department of Electronic & Electrical Engineering at the same university, where he is presently based.

Since obtaining his PhD, for research into the carrier processes and dynamics in InGaAs quantum dot lasers, he has mainly worked on long wavelength GaAs-based lasers (under the EU NanoMat programme) and InP-based quantum cascade lasers, and has co-authored over 30 papers.

In 2005 he was awarded a Royal Academy of Engineering / EPSRC Research Fellowship for research into advanced semiconductor laser engineering, with his main research interests being III-V semiconductor lasers, amplifiers and superluminescent diodes, and the development of advanced fabrication technologies for such devices.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alhamdulillah, both of them were very nice... tanya soalan dgn cara baik, bukannya tanya soalan seolah2 cam nak menembak atau menganiaya kita....both are family man, so biasanya mrk2 ni ada gak la hati perut, hehehe.... Kebanyakan soalan were asked by Steve tu, yg internal tak banyak soalan pun, mungkin sbb dia muda lagi and tak berapa experience. Tapi tu lah, the viva lasted almost 4 hours!

Mula2 depa bgtahu start kul 2pm, jadi saya pun dtg la kul 2pm, pastu rupanya, Steve tu terlewat naik train drp Surrey (jauh gak surrey ni drp sheffield, ada gak la more than 3 hours)...so, mrk tunda ke 2.30 pm. I had to wait in the head of department sitting room. Berdebar tak tau nak kata la, huhu....pastu mrk start la viva...dalam 4 jam tu cuma 15 minit je kot rehat, sbb mrk nak ke toilet...

The atmosphere masa viva tu informal je...saya makan biskut lagi masa tu sbb lapar sgt...by dah dekat 3 jam setengah tu, saya mula lembik, dia tanya soalan sampai 3 kali baru la faham, sbb cam otak dah tak leh compute dah, penat sgt! Tapi pakcik tu keep on saying, I have to ask this question...

Kuar2 bilik tu dah gelap...kul 6pm lebih...yeap maghrib jamak la nampaknya sbb dah isyak by that time...mrk suh duk luar bilik dalam 10-15 minits before mrk panggil balik utk bgtahu kita lulus ke tak....i think that 15 minutes was the longest EVER 15 minutes i ever had! rasa cam dua jam tunggu, huhu, berdebar tok sah nak kata la...tskk

Akhirnya depa panggil masuk n bgtahu la, yg setelah berbincang mrk decided to pass me with minor correction, alhamdulillah!! Ada la lagi pujian yg lain, tapi biasalah mat salleh suka puji org, tak yah la citer kat sini...

Lepas beberapa hari viva, John bgtahu yg Steve tu berminat lagi nak jumpa saya dalam bulan January...sbb dia interested in the results...pastu yg internal tu pun masa sy jumpa nak amik correction pun kata, sorry la lama viva tu, Steve tu mesti interested dgn thesis tu sbb kalau tak takkan sampai 4 jam....he said it is a good thing..(well, i dunno, 4 hours is really traumatic for me)

Habislah satu chapter dalam hidup saya dan suami....Allah Maha Besar, segala pujian dikembalikan kpd Allah... saya doakan rakan2 yg masih berjuang berjaya juga one day, ameen...

Tension sungguh!

Tengah geram ni...

Baru baca journal paper of a korean research assistant yg pernah bekerja di Physics department kat university of sheffield....I know him and sebelum ni, beberapa kali pergi jumpa dia to discuss things...

and i even show my results at that time...sbb tak boleh explain lagi time tu....tup tap....dia publish paper baru dgn nama prof di fizik department (kawan baik john dan juga the author of the paper am writing now)...dan results dia similar to what i have but with different explanation!!!

yg sakit jiwa tu, banyak apa yg dia tulis di ambil drp first paper kami, tak tak de decency to even refer pun! teruk betul... prof yg kat fizik department tu pun marah, terkejut dan malu dgn paper yg mamat korea publish sbb dia tak bagi pun prof tu baca paper tu sebelum submit, dia sedar bila dah publish pun!!

what the???!!!

huh, kene sambung baca paper ni...sakit jiwa bila baca...manusia ni mmg la tak leh dipercayai...

just to melegakan hati, paper dia tu tak la comprehensive sgt, banyak hand waiving things...yg paper yg kami sdgn tulis ni lagi detail la, tapi it took longer sbb terlalu detail (ni penyakit prof2 ni...nak wat detail2, mula2 sy nk wat 3 pages je, skrg dah jadi 7 pages)

takpelah....nak kene diskas paper ni ngan john lepas ni...

pengajaran? Hati2 ngan manusia...

PhD ada cuti kah?

Saya gemar baca PhD comics ni...banyak kali tu mmg terjadi kat kami semua....seperti contoh komik strip diatas....hehe...kalau ikut supervisor kami, mmg la tak de istilah cuti...weekend kah, cuti umum kah...tok sah harap ler...

cam baru2 ni...raya haji...jadi sy bagitau lah sy tak akan dtg ari jumaat tu sbb raya...dia pun kata, oklah camtu, tapi wiken nanti dia akan call...tak cukup ngan tu, dia kata nanti christmas, awk tak bercuti kan? ye lah, sbb awk bukan kristian and plus dah amik cuti raya tu, huhu....sebenarnya ada la logik gak kat situ, namun...sapa yg tak nak bercuti ye dak?

in the end, dia tak call pun wiken tu, alhamdulillah...saya pun tak berapa sihat, jadi banyak habiskan masa berehat je...tidur manjang...

beginilah hidup org wat phd :) (well, true for mrk yg dpt supervisor cam supervisor kami la ) setakat sharing borak2 kosong2....

Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Adha....

Rindu Malaysia...

Nostal betul lagu ni, masa kecik2 dulu slalu nyayi kat sekolah rendah...

Dalam research group kami ni (impact ionisation group)...cukup semua malay, chinese and indian malaysian (majority chinese la, malay ada 3 org)....hehe, yg indian tu boss besar, pakcik John....in a way, i can see how he tries to build a mini malaysia here....kuat juga rasa nationalisme pakcik ni....which is good... if only he could see even beyond that....

Malaysia oh tanah airku...
Tanah tempat tumpah darahku....

Besar harapan ku pada Malaysia,
Besar sungguh harapanku kepada umatku di sana....
Aku berdoa moga aku dapat menyumbang dan merubah kepada yg lebih baik...
ameen....
