back from Soccer matches

I just back from the soccer matches in Mamak. I am very happy to see Man Utd manage to win from poor match but at the other hand I am hoping for Rooney to come back. Man Utd still seeking for the Scoring formula for all the matches. Vidic managed to save Man Utd from a draw and snatch a win by a header crossed by Nani from Corner.

There are lots of chances created from the match. as Man Utd still lacking of the finishing. What is wrong with Man Utd's attacking.
so, we have to pray more and get Rooney back to face Chelsea by next week.

Telok Cempedak, Kuantan

I’ve spent my last weekend in Kuantan with my family. Our last family trip was about 5 years ago, the destination was also Kuantan. And of course, we now have a new family member, my sister-in-law. :)

Teluk Cempedak

The must-visit spot in Kuantan is definitely Telok Cempedak, where all the locals call TC. TC is located about 5km from Kuantan town, approximately 15 minutes of driving distance. The beach is one of the famous spots for the locals and also tourists. You will see a lot of parents with their kids here. They are all enjoying flying kites, swimming in the sea (or rather floating), and building sand castles. TC might not be the nicest beach in Kuantan, but it definitely is the most happening one.

Teluk Cempedak

It used to have only restaurants and food stalls on the sea front. But this time, I get to see a lot other stalls selling souvenirs, toys, portrait sketches. I am not sure whether this is bringing good or bad to the beach.

I do like the sand, the beach, the rocks and the sea here. Behind all the beautiful sceneries, I actually found a lot of garbage on the beach. Sadly to say, that really spoilt my mood.

Rubbish at Teluk Cempedak

So, all you good good people out there please take good care of the beloved TC. Stop pouring litters to our environment and start being environmental friendly.

back from long holiday

I just back from my so called long holiday, it been a long holiday for me since April.
I am working on my photos for blogging.
This been a long holiday for me, as I been work from day to night with my work.
It’s nice to be back to blogging life again. I missed lots of news when I was in holiday.
Life without internet is look like not so good for me as a IT profession. But after a long rest, I feel fresh again when come back to work.
That's why people always like to take a long leave and travel, so that we can get fresh again when back to work.

Do broadband service speeds impact surfing

Have to say that Malaysia’s service Provider been struggling to provide faster speed for broadband with cheap. If I am not mistaken, the maximum speed is 4MB. And it’s only provided at certain area. You might not able to get this service if you staying out of the town.
Will it be a major problem for subscriber? Do every individual felt frustrated with the slow speed surfing problem?

Technology is growing from day to day, web site is grow from static to dynamic and also now they treat web as a service. Which is one of the priciples of the Web 2.0.
Now lots of web site even provides online demo features for users to test the software online, but with slow access level, users are failed and frustrated with the web itself. In fact, the problem is the access download rate problem.

Microsoft just launch the windows Server 2008, I just went thru their web site. I feel very slow with the response time, it’s because of the bandwidth or website itself.
I really need some one to tell me on that.

Google, yahoo topped online brand again.

When you talk about branding, this is to see how popular the brand in the market. As we all know that Coca-cola is always the world famous brand. Coca-Cola has been named the world's top brand for a fourth consecutive year in a survey by consultancy Interbrand.

Base on JupiterResearch research recently. Google and Yahoo are top of the favorite online brand surveyed by online users.

36% of users voted Google as their favorite online brand, letting yahoo behind with 32% of votes.

Just wonder when will be a new brand after google and yahoo to take over the online branding rankings.

Going off from today

Today I am going to off half day and will only start to work by next Monday.
Just because tomorrow is my sister’s convocation and my parents is coming down to attend her convocation, I off for a week to bring them around. At the same time I can take a rest from the busy work, what an excuses for me to rest.

My sister graduated from UPM by majoring in Landscape architecture. She struggled for 4 years to achieve her dream. And finally she got it.

She is the youngest in my family, so, considered my parents really can retire after this. And can go to travel from now as well. I am really looking forward to bring them around the world, kekeke…This might be not achievable, but I will work hard for that.

So, might just see your all next week. Or maybe can meet me up at UPM (University Putra Malaysia)

First win of the session

Thank to the goal from Nani, Man Utd finally got the first win for the session.
That was very scary match, as Man utd can say survived from the last 25 Minutes from unlucky Spurs.
I can see some inprovement from Nani's play. He played quite well today and scored a stunning goal from his hard working play style. The Shot was very wonderful, his stunning 30-yard effort flying into the top corner of Robinson's net.
So, I hope can see Man Utd will keep working hard to break into top of the league.
Let's keep winning from now!

Crimes in Malaysia

Snatch theft is the crime that has grabbed the attention of Malaysians lately.
Everyday, the media doesn't fail to report o­n yet another snatch theft crime committed.

I just witnessed once last night when went to have dinner at stall at Taman Bahagia. I was not able to help when that happens, just because it’s happening too far from my stand place.

I just find out that they come with a plan, I think they should well known with the place, and also with the equipment needed. Some one is waiting with bike, while his partner was jump down to snatch the wallet.

Even though this crime isn't anything new to this country but the recent spate of snatch thefts throughout has increased in an alarming rate.

We, the public at large are feeling victimized as well, as we live in fear of falling victims to these criminals every time they are out in public.

Is this to be a Malaysian culture? Is this what we want in our country?

And back to last week Tuesday, when I got to know my mom is robed by some Indian guys who claim they are come to correct charity. And my mom is too generous and trying to donate some. But end up it’s come into my house and take all the properties from my house. Thank god my mother never gets hurt.

Last Thursday (16 august), another crime happened just in front of my house. Victim is my housemate. My housemate always takes bus when coming back from work. There are one guys waiting for her and stop her from walking back with a knife and ask her to hand over the wallet.

Do Malaysia really a dream home for us? Do Malaysia is a place that really safe to stay?
We dream of a Malaysia that is excellent, glorious and distinctive. May that dream be a reality?

I hope this post will become guides for public to really aware on the crime that happen from day to day. Share with me if there are more types you witness before.

Customs Malaysia to go Electronic

I just came back from the so-called discussion for implementing systems of Customs Form declaration. As my company is located at Free Industrial Zones (Sungai Way), we need to declare customs form for all import and export transactions.

Basically today's session is to talk about pricing and concerns about e-Declare. e-Declare is developed by a local e-business company called DagangNet.

I think the online Customs form declaration implementation is showing that our Government is moving towards the paperless era. But on the other hand, costing for some companies will increase drastically after the implementation.

Just look at the packages you should purchase in order to use the e-Declare:
1-time Registration = RM1400
Stamping Fees = RM10
Module Access = RM660

And every month, you have 3 options to go for:
1. Submit thru forwarding agent, which will charge you RM30 per form.
2. Direct subscriber, use e-Declare. RM235 per month and RM1.20 per 1KB. We were told that 1 transaction will take up approximately 4 KB. So, it should be RM4 per transaction. RM180 is for mailbox, and RM55 is for access fees.
3. Submit thru Dagangnet Facilitation Point, which they call it “kedai” DagangNet, is RM22 per form

Gosh…

Just imagine one factory might have 20 transactions per day (small factory, not including big nam like Western Digital. I think WD can easily reach 50 transactions per day), and there will be more then 1000 factories that are dealing with factories in FIZ. So 1 transaction will cost RM4. RM4 x 20 Transactions x 1000 Factory, easily DagangNet can earn RM40K per day and RM1.2 millions per month. This is only based on monthly transactions. And the monthly fees to pay is RM235. They will be earning RM2.35 millions from 1000 factories per month.

So, monthly earning for dagangNet will be RM 3.55 millions.

And don’t forget, it is just calculating fees for FIZ sungai Way. What about Bayan Lepas? Ulu kelang? And lots more.

So, please stock in some shares from UEM World counter, as DagangNet is own by UEMWORLD.

Hire for attitude

When come to hire people, you need to find a way to discover and decide who has the most potential for the empty position. Hire people is not as easy as you though, some people can have great resumes and presentable interview, but they turn up to be a turtle when it comes to productive and personality. Slow progress is the main issue of them, and some so called “value added personality” will demotivate your team. At the same time, people come with low expectations and blow the team out of the water with hard work and a great attitude.

So, what is the right direction to great hiring strategy?
I think base on my experience, the main focus will be attitude.

That’s why big company are concern about attitude during work when come to hiring, I been to some big name company in Malaysia for Interview. They are seriously not so focus on my technical skills. Mostly 90% of the question is towards my personality, I was too curious why they ask me about my social life and never got to care about my technical skills.

Today, I understand and totally agreed that attitude is the main focus when come to hiring. I come across with this issue when deal with my down line nowadays. I find it very difficult to handle people with bad attitude. As some of the people is not hire by you. It is bad to take over some people from other’s people supervision and take care of them. As before they join your team, you already know that they got attitude problem.

These are the habits that I found for bad example:

1. Late with lots of excuses


2. Always take MC (medical leave)


3. Always take EL(Emergency leave)


4. Always argue with you


5. Always left the unfinished work behind


6. No skills but pretend that they are good


7. Always bring problem and argue that it’s not their fault.


8. Take break time more than allowed.


9. “Disappeared” during work.


10. The Worst :Scold you when you argue with them


11. And lots more.

Base on what I experienced. I totally agree that when come to hiring, we must focus on people’s attitude. So, Hire for Attitude… pLease….
