Haruskah aku terus menulis..

2009-07-29T12:03:00.001+08:00

setelah sekian lama mendiamkan diri...
Haruskah aku terus menulis,
setelah lama meyendiri..
Haruskah aku terus menulis,
Setelah sekian lama menyepi...
Haruskah aku terus menulis,
Setelah sekian lama sibuk berlari kesana kemari...
Haruskah aku terus menulis,
Setelah sekian lama mencari untuk menulis sesuatu yang memberi erti...

Haruskah aku?

From Gelang Patah to Lumut

2007-04-24T17:34:00.000+08:00

Where I went missing?

I was here in lumut since 15th April 2007 and will be here until the end of the month. Things are moving quite slow over here, driver in the new V6 perdana drove his wheeler at 35km/h, all by themselves enjoying the scenery and the wind.

I am here for a mission to get our things back to Gelang patah as reliable, efficient and advanced. For someone knowledge, to bring back 5 nos. of Quay Side Crane (read: Quay Crane) and 20 nos. of Rubber Tyre Gantry (read:RTG). I'll post in the photo soon.

After a week here,

Not so bad.. makan quite okay, so so.. maybe because im wearing PTP uniform and this is the best time for the food operator to charge the bills sky high. Seafood was good.. Fresh from sea.. and tomyam food are loads..

Im staying in the Orient Star Hotel (read:Orient NO Star) with a big rooms, swimming pool, lounge, everything are big but sunyi sepi....

About works,

So.. so just managed to study the whole programme and i just got the new target dates for the crane.. life will be busy in the next 10 months down the lines..

Headlines in the paper,

Transport Ministry will study proposal to ban old cars from roads i.e. to scrap thecars more than 15 years old...

(Please help me to save my beetle...)

The water level kept on raising high up and my dad van, fully submerged in the water at 7.20pm the same day....we put one nite at the flood relocation centre with no aids until the 3rd day.. Datanglah seorang YB untuk menjenguk dlm masa 3 minutes and ambil 2 keping gambar, sekeping bersama magsa banjir dan sekeping lagi di kawasan kantin untuk masak nasi kawah, dan terus berlalu pergi dalam sekelip mata...

Anda sedang mencari Cinta?

2006-12-01T09:43:00.000+08:00

Filem mengenai lima kisah cinta moden dengan metropolitan Kuala Lumpur sebagai background. Different love stories, watak2 yang berkaitan antara satu sama lain secara kebetulan dan lokasi..

my favourite scene,

setiap shot ada maknanya... Sampah yang jatuh dari atas. Siling yang jatuh dari atas. Banglo yang terbengkalai. Paku yang tidak boleh guna.
Gandingan Rita Rudaini (Airin) dan Rashidi Ishak(Harris) benar-benar menyentuh perasaan. Cerita Cinta paling berkesan.
Pelakon kanak-kanak (alissa) yang berlakon sebagai anak pasangan ini menyentap hati dan dengan deras air mata mengalir membasahi pipi.
Harris kecewa ditinggalkan oleh Airin. Harris berdiri keseorangan memandang ke atas. Hujan turun. Pandangan dari sisi Harris mendongak sambil hujan membasahi mukanya begitu cantik. Selepas itu, lakaran banglo barunya luntur.
Adegan imbas kembali saat-saat manis Harris dan Airin dibuat terlampau manis. Imej di bawah selimut begitu manis dan mampu membuatkan bibir tersenyum...

cinta sebenar adalah melepaskan orang tersayang pergi buat selamanya...
mampukah kamu memiliki cinta yang dicari atau cinta tulus sejati....
sejauh manakah pengorbanan kamu kerna cinta..
adakah cinta perlu berakhir bila usia semakin meningkat...

Have u been in loved?

How's your love?

What is your comment about love... CINTA

Bring your loved ones and enjoy watching CINTA..

Saya seakan megiyakan ucapan Prof Emeritus Dr Abdullah Hassan di Kongres Bahasa dan Persuratan Melayu Ke-7 di Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP), Isnin lalu..

"Ia merupakan satu pendustaan dan kajian yang tidak telus apabila dikatakan keputusan pelajar Melayu yang belajar Sains dan Matematik dalam bahasa Inggeris meningkat, sedangkan semasa diajar dalam bahasa Melayu pun, pencapaian kedua-dua mata pelajaran tersebut merosot...."

Seperti entry Betik, Batuk Vs Batok, mempunyai makna yang agak tersirat dan perlu difahami sedalamnya..

Saya berharap sangat agar penggunaan bahasa Inggeris ditukarkan dengan mengekalkan jargon untuk mengelakkan bangsa kita dari terus tercicir...

Gabungan Sains dan mathematical calc terutamanya fractal formulas dan byk parameters serta pengunaan perisian komputer terkini, output dari c-language programming on linux O/S.. inilah hasilnya...

Yore cut from the best pattern, like a flannel shirt of plaid,

You sparked up my life, like a Rattletrap shad.

When you hold me real tight, like a padded gunrack,

My life is complete; ain't nuttin' I lack.

Yore complexion, it's perfection, like the best vinyl sidin'.

Despite all the years, yore age, it keeps hidin'.

And when you get old, like a '57 Chevy,

Won't put you on blocks, and let grass grow up heavy.

Some men, they buy chocolate, for Valentine's Day;

They get it at Tesco; it's romantic that way.

Some men give roses on that special day ;

From the cooler at Noel; "That's impressive," I say.

Some men buy fine diamonds, from a flea market booth.

"Diamonds are forever," they explain, suave and couth.

But for this man, these will not do.

For you are too special, you sweet thang you.

I got you all a gift, without taste nor odor,

Better than diamonds; It's a new trollin' motor!

8.30 malam ini akan berentap dua siaran langsung pasangan selebriti Malaysia.
Adakah siaran Mawi dan Diana so-pathetic di Astro dapat mengalahkan Datin Siti Nurhaliza dan Dato Khalid Mohd Jiwa di TV3?
Ini bukan pertama kali gandingan Astro dan RTM. Sudah banyak kali kerjasama diwujudkan tetapi kerjasama ini diberikan perhatian yang lebih kerana kata media kerjasama ini cuba untuk memintas kerjasama Siti Nurhaliza dan Media Prima.

Apa salahnya ? Ini zaman siber. Maklumat mengalir pantas. Manusia dihidangkan dengan pelbagai pilihan. Pillihan terletak di tangan kita. Alternatif perlu wujud. Tanggungjawab media menyediakan alternatif tersebut.
Pilihan tetap di tangan kita. Yang pasti program terbaik dan paling popular, akan terus menjadi pilihan penonton.

Hari ini 22 juta rakyat Malaysia harus bijak membuat pilihan. Enjoy watching and channel-changing everyone!

(Later tonite, Ramlee will be in his first fitness session in many years with Clark Hatch, Danga Bay. )

“Kemeriahan” tersebut akan menutup pembongkaran terbaru

in Japan Times on the arrest by the Japanese police of top execs of the Mitutoyo Corp., which is a a major producer of precision equipment which originally supplied the nuclear related equipment to Scomi, alleged to be involved in the nuclear black market.
Malaysian police cleared Scomi of allegations that it knew the parts were bound for Libya and were intended for use in its nuclear weapons program.

Should Malaysia suffer the economic sanctions like the ones now envisaged for Iran if it continues to show the same recklessness and disregard for its international commitments? Sure.

Traditional-Jazzy Nite..

2006-08-23T02:30:00.000+08:00

I had a wonderful jazz nite last nite with Mr. Farid Ali also known affectionately as Mr. Gambus mesmerized everyone with the traditional Malay instrument, the 12-string Gambus.

The Instrument and the Playa...
Gambus (Arabian Oud) is a stringed instrument like a guitar with a body shaped like a pear sliced in half. It has 12 nylon strings and are plucked, much like a guitar to generate sound, with a plastic plectrum. However, unlike a guitar, the gambus has no frets.

Farid Ali is no doubt one of the finest jazz guitarist in the region. An 'old soul', at a tender age of 5, Farid was already singing Frank Sinatra's ‘Strangers in the night’ in a Singapore radio show. Whilst his peers grew up listening to Hendrix and Deep Purple, Farid was listening to the likes of Sinatra, Nat King Cole, the Carpenters, Perry Como etc.

The last few years saw Farid embark on playing the Lute or known famously “Gambus” in Malaysia. Farid is constantly doing research and developing a concept of the Jazz Gambus. In February 2004 Farid performed with Bobby McFerrin at the Singapore Esplanade, That performance had boosted his confidence with the instrument and had sparked his decision to record his very first solo CD featuring his Gambus.

Repertoire

Plucking, and sings his owned composed songs from his first album, Turning Point and his upcoming album, due to be released during The Penang Jazz Festival.

This was Farid Ali and The Mr Gambus Band 2nd concerts to the “gambus origin land”, I enjoyed and stunned with his ability, full of excitement and jazzy on strings. Bottom line, whacked and jazzy nite! I soulfully enjoyed the show…

These days I listen to anybody and everybody especially to World music and music of my origin.

An opportunity waits for me at the other ends…

2006-08-12T05:30:00.000+08:00

Wish me luck!!

Good Friday......and Good Weekend U ols!

2006-08-10T05:30:00.000+08:00

All sorts of answer are welcome; I just want to know the power of your brain….

#1 "What does a cow have four of that and we have only two?"
#2 "What is in guy’s pants but not in women’s?"
#3 "What starts with a C and ends with a T, is hairy, oval, delicious and contains thin whitish liquid?"
#4 "What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?"
#5 "What does a man do standing up, a woman does sitting down and a dog does on three legs?"

Easy bizzy huh? How about this one… Now I will ask some "Who am I" sort of questions, Good Luck…….

#6 You stick your poles inside me. You tie me down to get me up. I get wet before you do
#7"A finger goes in me. You fiddle with me when you're bored. The bestman always has me first."
#8 "I come in many sizes. When I'm not well, I drip. When you blow me, you feel good."
#9 "I have a stiff shaft. My tip penetrates. I come with a quiver."

Entri No. 1....

Sorry! for those who came in but feel frustrated to read an non-active blog.. Tremendously busy with 2 newly awarded projects. It is not for me tough, the new works that i have to monitor in the next 8 months. By then, I will proudly announced to Danny and my siblings that, Phase 2 Development for Port of Tanjung Pelepas are spearheaded by me!!

It is merely a "name" but who cares?

Entri No. 2....

Volkswagon! Its German tagline is "Aus Liebe zum Automobil", which is translated as "For the love of the car" - or, For Love of the People's Cars," as translated by VW in other languages. I just bought my 1971-scrappedyard beetle on 14th June 2006 and in the process of refurbishment.. i'll upload her photo when she is ready..

It is merely a "name" and I bet u wanna have a peek on my beetle soon.. imagine she's clad with 2-colour tone, new interiors, built-in aircond, chromed spart parts, antique rims and 2-colour tone tyre import from Germany...

Entri No. 3.......

Last weekend.. jalan2 dgn Danny and Mars... sekali terpandang.... stop and flash

It is merely a "name" but who cares?

2006 World Cup Entry

2006-07-07T08:00:00.000+08:00

Sadly for Portugal,France beat them, yet again, this time through a Zidane penalty in the 33th minute, just as how his penalty sent the Portuguese home in the 2000 European Championship semifinals.

According to my feng shui master and backed up with my analytical mind.... Sebenarnya Italy sentiasa jadi champion or runner up (kira masuk final la) setiap tahun anjing.. (kecuali 1938 bukan tahun anjing)

1934 Champion agst Czech

1938 Champion agst Hungary

1970 Runner up agst Brazil

1982 Champion agst Germany

1994 Runner up agst Brazil

2006 Italy agst France **dunno**

WHO LETS THE DOG OUT.. woof woof

What Would I Be?

2006-07-06T07:00:00.000+08:00

What would the Yin be without the Yang -
What would lemon pie be without the meringue?
What would false be without true -
And what would I be without you?
