H@ppy new yr...slmt meny@mbut awal muharr@m


new yr is coming to town,where is the homey the cloWn??yuuhhhhuuuuu...
Aku demam sejak khamis lepas,dec 27 sehingga semalam (ahad).aku bersyukur kehadrat allah maha pencipta yg telah memberikan dugaan kpd ako di akhir tahun hijrah dan masihi ini.empat hari yg penuh kepayahan,keperitan,kesukaran etc…namun ako redha dgn ketentuannya.ako ada sejenis penyakit…kalo sakit x suka makan ubat hehe.pertamanya ako mmg x suka (read takut) mamam ubat.keduanya ubat = xsedap…yucks,kalau sedap mcm satey kajang ok laaa(terasa nak mkn satey kajang ni,tapi x tau lg bila boleh turun ke kajang…probably masa menghadiri wedding reception yana,anak akak nana…i`allah) tapi reason yg paling kuat = ako x mamam ubat sebab most prescribe medicine ada DRUGS!!!dadah yg x dilarang,blatant fact,simple as that.that’s y penagih dadah = insan yg menggunakan dadah terlarang dan x mengikut dosage yg betul…huhu.lagipun ako percaya kpd natural healing…proses penyembuhan semulajadi,no not ayu verdict la…beza sangat.pd ako kalau demam,pening,sakit kerongkong,batuk selsema dll,ako biarkan aje kuman/bacteria/virus/enzyme yg sudah sedia ada dlm badan ako melawan penyakit itu.mmg la pada mulanya badan ako panas…panas tu proses semulajadi dalam tindakbalas kimia badan ako utk menyingkirkan/mematikan serangan kuman2 jahat yg menyerang tubuh badanku yg layu ini.dua hari suhu badan ako more than 39°.ako hanya duduk tersandar aje,mcm foreman di belasah mat ali dlm pertarungan epic di kinshasha,Zaire…rumble in the jungle ketika ali meranapkan kejagoan foreman…dan tatkala ungkapan konotasi : rope a dope dilaungkan The greatest of em all : ali ali ali.speaking about ali…tis great humble man mmg dekat dihatiku.. venue : selangor turf club,jalan ampang,sgor. Time : quarter past six am.pd waktu itu mat ali akn berhadapan dgn joe bugner his challenger,n the last white hope to outbox,outpunch,outsmart n out(etc) the greatest.pd waktu itu ayah ako sedang dlm proses menyiapkan projek flet kediaman dibalai police lembah pantai.ayah membawa ako ke sgor turf club semata2 kerana ako amat meminati mat ali,so does my father hehe,so we were both in equal term la.ako antara ratusan peminat/penyokong mat ali yg menunggu beliau menghabiskan his early morning workout.according to my dad,his early morning canter = 5 miles.huh!!!5miles trot?haha that’s what it takes to be a world slugger,back in those days.i was more than impressed,impressive!!!just imagine,after his workouts,sweat all around n the seriousness of his title defence,he still took time off to entertain his peers,duly signed any autograph requested…me inclusive.he made my day,ty mr Muhammad ali,ty sir!!!he's no celtic genetic type haha.he gave me a blank stare n said…”nvr ever said sir to nobody..ur your own sir lil boy…n patted my small head.wow…the greatest of em all just spoke to me n even touched my feeble skinny skull.ali succedded in retaining his title,outboxed outpunched,outwitted bugner all of 15 rounds.kehebatan ali mmg tidak dinafikan dunia,namun im not dwelling into his greatness,but the road to his unchallenged height that struck me in awe.from a humble beginning he emerged as the greatest pound for pound boxer in the world.he overcome any major obstacles,even to the great extend…the uncle sam law.haha,he’s brainer than most noble laurette or pulitzer’s winner.champion of humanity he is.ali,ali ali chanted the marauding crowd..where ever his entourage congregate.that early morning..im one of them crowd…ali ali ali.
So after pausing for quite sometime,ako beranggapan demam ako ini hanya utk sementara shj…xpayah la nak merintih mengasihi diri ku haha…yg kesian shah…my other half had to attend more than 5 wedding receptions,alone or accompany by the kids.not that pergi makan shj,she had to buy presents all by herself,wrapped the boxes,drive thru traffics,berpanas,berpeluh..tapi juga terpaksa menjelaskan sebab2 ketidak hadiran ako ke majlis2 tersebut,most of the reception xcept 1 semua majlis kenalan2 ako hehe.rite now,Sunday dec 30 2007 10:30pm.dah malam.selepas maghrib tadi ako telah membawa shah,utk membuat persiapan terakhir utk anak2 sebelum the new schooling year commence.ako ingatkan dah x ada apa yg perlu dibeli lagi,rupa²nya salah telahan ako haha.imagine,after spending endless amount of cash,she (shah) brought out a long lists of things needed to be purchased for the kids!!!ako yg baru sembuh dr demam,terasa nak masuk dlm icu…again!against all odd tau.hmmm ako beritahu shah,cash in my wallet running thin,as thin as the mahjong paper haha.she just chuckled and said…don’t worry dearie,my dec salary still untouch n no go,yet.wahaaaa…jom la shopped apa tunggu lagi I told her…lauffing all the way to the mall while zig zaging thru shoppers around the foyer.dropped by at genie time laboratory…ellesse watches on sale…ermm.showed a keen interest to this particular watch…a copper plated chronograph ellesse with 3 dial faces on it…a tachy watch.only if I stopped smoking for the past year…tis elegant,smart looking watch wud be on my wrist by the time I type these words haha.that’s the way this beautiful life goes on n on,never ending story…pls take note Malaysian gp will be here,yet again come march 23rd.received a text mssg from zeck…im not going to wear mclaren team color tis year,im with megat n pang,bmw petronas.haha zeck…u n ur new beemer ride go n bake under hassan merican’s umbrella…nay bother,as long as trulli out qualifiy both ur bayerichen motorwerke,suffice.tis yr,kami dr ipoh speed 100mph club akan berkampung di pan pac,klia x seperti tahun2 yg sudah kami semua berkumpul di jw marriot,kl.kami sememangnya F1 ultra fans,tapi mulai tahun ni,kami nak sober during the carnivale…nak just concentrate on the technical data..track temp,ambiance,wind direction etc…x mo lagi dah jadi rowdy2…nak baik2 aje hehe.all of us dh come into term,speeding aint killing u,crashing will.haha with tis,im penning off.shah...pinjam rm50 nak order parking sticker dr SIC…

taking a glance at the trophy/medallion laden cabinet…one particular object strike me eyes.a 3rd placing medal in archery won by rizq syahrin Muhammad during U-15 inter district archery competition (a bronze medal that was).archery is a gentleman sport,he told me…so need to hv the proper equipment,finger tap,torso vest,arm protector,arrow case,bow etc.bought most of the needed equipment bar one…the most essential of all, a bow.he needed to hv his own bow in order to excell in the sport.olympia typewriter to OD,Samick bow to syahrin…a must for any great archer.w/out his own bow at his disposal,he hd to share common bow (school stock)with his fellow teammates.not that I didn’t want to get him a bow,me went to one fine archery supply store,a nice Chinese lady goes by the name of Julie runs the store (the store which me bought all the stuff needed by syahrin) n had a look at one used American made bow plus all the balancers,rm1,200 nett.a spanking brand new wud cost more than rm3,000 she told me.as always,cash in short supply…told her I wud be back within a week with the cash requested.4 dys later went to the store,only to find out that one lucky soul had been the new owner of the bow…me forgot to put a deposit haha.julie was all apologistics…told me had I put down rm10.00 as a deposit,the bow wud be in my hand by now…life so beautiful…still hv my rm1,200.instead of a bow,me went to tabung haji n deposited the money into syahrin’s account.u win some u lose some…all my kids are sportsmen/women.handball,volleyball,football,hockey,archery,sepaktakraw n shot putt.syamsul represented the kinta district in handball (received a call up to the state selection),syahrin represented kinta district in archery,rest of the kids…interschools.my legacy…shot putt in the field event.every year during school sports day,my off springs,boys n gals nvr failed to bring home the medals in that event.the least is a silver.the genes are there u know…muscles hv brains of their own,cuz in the event u need not be the biggest nor the bulkiest…strength at par with others…correct techniques,perfect timing n muscles contraction at the precise point…haihoo…u’ll be on the top podium.it brings back to our previous narrating…rider of rohan aka steelhorse rider.once a rider will always be a rider,no matter how long u parted company with ur ride.same apply to writer…only if there’s a mental blockage,only then u cant write.a writer will for ever writes.a writer analys,see/think,grasp differently from other joe/jane,the left side brain in use more than 3%.hmmm jk rawlings n her cute piggy bank...count me in or count me not?so...need my whip n leather saddle...wud be saddleking meself.

Banyak terma dan slogan retorika telah digunakan oleh pemerintah Negara Malaysia tercinta untuk menggerakkan the great mass bagi menjana dan memangkin pembangunan untuk manfaat masyarakat Negara ini.
Bumi hijau,bersih cekap amanah,masyarakat maddani (mantan tpm,DSAI) melayu glokal,masyarakat hadhari dll.namun bagi diriku,ako menggunakan terma masyarakat Lestari…apakah itu masyarakat Lestari,some might ask.well…masyarakat Lestari = sebuah tamadun yg saling lengkap melengkapi dan memenuhi kemahuan dan kehendak mereka tanpa mengorbankan kesiap siagaan dan keupayaan generasi pd masa hadapan untuk merasai dan menikmati keperluan dan kehendak mereka (generasi akan dtg).meaning to say…u must read the book entitled “our common future” published in 1987 by the UN conference on trade n development bureau (UNCTAD),only then u wud understand the true meaning of the word Lestari…not Listrik as some might suggest haha.
Our great vast n motherly planet,namely mother earth is as old as the hills/mountains herself.all her major resources had been digged,drilled,pumped,extracted,chopped,scavanged etc for hundreds or thousands of yrs (gold is known to be used since the pagan worshipper period) by us,mere dwarfs without any regard nor respect that our natural resources = limited.to us as long as the moon n stars shine n the ocean breeze cools our humid climate,we cud continue scavange mother earth “unlimited” supply of fossil fuel,copper,aluminium,timber etc.as a reminder…our oil supply..yeap crude oilfield in msia wud be all dried up in less than 20 yrs time.am not pulling n e one’s leg,let alone mine…the truth is out there…go to the pm department…dunno pm department on which level or in which’s which parcel in PJ,ask em for the white paper about oil (not the palm oil u moron,palm oil go to mpob/mpoc in kelana jaya) production supply…our shores oilfield.haha now can see all those poor gasoline guzzling masseratis,Ferraris,Lamborghinis owners making a bee line to install the environmental friendly ngv bulky tank ontop of em street rocketship!!!
Am one of the post independent generation,subscribing to our former pm notion…we must have 70 millions citizens asap to fill the topography…and demography.haha ty mr pm,*winks*,me as usual,as tricky as the gibbon/monkey n as wise as an old owl.adopted the “pungent” idea,bearing more than half a dozen flesh n blood of my own.but wait seminit…more inhabitants of our isolated planet means more raw material n resources had to be drilled,pumped etc.hmmm…shiver on my spine.equlibrium sought here,need to make it fit like a jockey’s glove!!!
just like an old English proverbs…”fools rush in where angels fear to tread…” our (government of the world) authorities are just like parrot.full of ballony n full of words to put back our planet in order/shape,pls don’t make a pig of urselves,shape up or ship out pls.take my heed,fine words = butter,no parsnips.so just do it merry men keep the ball rolling.pass the baton u mr secretary general (UN) to heads of government.lay down the law,put em under obligation to start the recycling project.recycle paper means less timber trees being chopped,less fossil fuel being burnt (less chainsaw usage),less electrical usage (less coal being burnt,less air pollution hence a greater quality of life) n less gully,stream,river being contaminated.kita mesti mengamalkan kehidupan berteraskan masyarakat Lestari,pls.
shahawani just rang us up…”need to go to bandung this Saturday,urgent.will send kids,miqdad izzani n mukhriz adam tomorrow,look after em carefully,pls”ermm ermm chance to teach em,those 2 lil kids how to feed the kampong chicken…haha make a jumpstart on everything,guys…educate em early.we (shah n me) will be the eternal/perrinniel nannies to our sibling’s kids.when my sister n bro went to the uk to read em doctorate in law,we were the guardian looking after their kids,when shahawani went all over Europe,bali,California,down under,uk for vacation,we were there to lend our hands looking after those kids,when my bro in law n his spouse went to a hunting trip deep inside Zimbabwe (he went to a hunting safari),we were eager as the beever to take charged of his kids.we do take great pride as nannies,cuz kids = adorable,how cud u didn’t love em?mother earth always has treated us with care,love n nourished us with aplenty.so why don’t we keep the house open to others?hospitable,ready,willing to entertain all comers/visitors at all times….thou sometimes we had to make do n mend just to meet ends meet,we survived.haha just like mother earth ever ready to accommodate every newborn child.sikit² lama² jadi bukit…yeap so true!!!mother nature may hv created the kinabalus or the titiwangsa range,but we also hv built many mountains of our own…garbage.heaps n piles of diapers,kitchen waste,industrial waste etc wud filled the proud n majestic petronas towers in notime,just think about those great twin towers overshadowed by wastes from klites daily trash…absent minded,insane,spastic,senile…doesn’t matter…?dun mind standing on ur own trash piles daily?just ring up alam flora?request a written answer from ur local mp why there’s a lump of garbage at ur street end?protest to dept of irrigation n drainage (jps/did) from the stench from a nearby seemingly “dead” river?file a formal complaint thru sms to the LPKP 1-800 toll free number coz the 16-wheeler-truck in front of ur 2-week-old white proton perdana omits a thick black smoke?...dear frens,we produce more garbage n pollute our environment than rice!with us adding nearly half a million people to the population each year,the amount of trash/waste keep growing n growing,no end to this u must be made known,fact.if only the china harbor engineering ppl wanna use these garbage to build the 2nd penang bridge…if only.

need to stretch those joints???...

Lemon grass,atau dalam bahasa melayu = serai.aku amat meminati tanaman serai,yg diusahakan secara skala besar.ciri2 tanaman kontan,atau tanaman jangka pendek mampu memberikan pulangan yg lumayan andai diusahakan dgn bersungguh² dan bersistematik.serai tidak memerlukan penjagaan rapi,sebaliknya hanya memadai dgn menjaga perdu/rumpun serai dari rumput/lalang juga serangga perosak spt siput.pd awal semaian,anak/benih serai memerlukan air…2 kali siraman di awal pagi dan ptg,hingga mencapai umur 1 bulan.penjagaan berkala mengikut panduan penjagaan serai akan menghasilkan serai yg gemuk,padat,berisi penuh dan segar.adalah disyorkan menggunakan baja organic,samada dr tinja kambing,lembu,sapi mahupun ayam secara teratur.serai yg menepati ciri2 tersebut akan mendapat tempat di pasaran,dan harganya juga tinggi berbanding serai yg ditanam secara tradisi…dibiarkan tanpa penjagaan dan hanya mengharapkan vitamin dan mineral dari sumber tanah semata-mata.jangkamasa putaran serai adalah lebih kurang 4 bulan sekali tuaian…oleh itu disyorkan agar pihak yg ingin menceburi bidang ini supaya menanam serai secara berperingkat,ini dapat menjamin hasil berterusan dan tiada lambakan serai di sesuatu kawasan.
Utk pengusaha yg ingin menceburi bidang ini secara kecil-kecilan atau hanya untuk beriadah mengeluarkan keringat dihujung minggu…tanaman serai mampu memberi kepuasan dan dpt membantu mengurangkan belanja dapur.disarankan keluasan tanah 10’-0” x 10’-0” dapat menempatkan 9 rumpun serai.setiap hujung minggu,siramlah rumpun serai anda dengan air basuhan beras,air basuhan ikan mahupun baja organic,buang semua rumput disekeliling rumpun serai anda dan buang potong semua daun-daun serai yang layu dan kering,semua aktiviti ini dapat dibereskan dalam jangkamasa 30 minit dan mampu membuatkan anda berpeluh…hanya 30 minit seminggu,setiap hujung minggu dan hasilnya…i`allah selepas 4 bulan rumpun serai anda akan menjadi perhatian jiran tetangga terdekat dan saudara mara yg mengunjungi mahligai anda…serai yg berlebihan bolehlah disedekahkan kpd tetamu mahupun rakan taulan di pejabat dan jiran terdekat.
Cara menanam serai yg diamalkan saya = tanah digemburkan 3’-0”x3’-0” dgn kedalaman gemburan sedalam 1’-0”,pada waktu ini elok ditabur baja organic dengan kadar 5% untuk setiap bahagian tanah.tanam anak serai dalam bentuk bulatan bergaris rentas 18” secara condong menghala ke luar,dan selang tiap2 anak serai ialah sejauh 3” antara satu sama lain.adalah digalakkan menanam anak serai secara berkembar,yakni 2 batang anak serai utk setiap lubang.selepas itu,siram anak serai itu setiap hari,selama 14 hari,awal pagi dan petang.perhatikan jika ada anak serai yang layu/mati mahupun mengalami reput batang,buangkan anak serai tersebut dan gantikan dengan anak serai yg baru.selepas sebulan,benih serai tadi akan mula mengeluarkan tunas2 baru…i`allah.proses pembajaan dilakukan setiap bulan.bulan terakhir sebelum menuai serai,proses pembajaan dihentikan…ini bagi menjimatkan kos dan juga mengurangkan pembaziran tenaga kerja.lebihan tenaga kerja boleh diarahkan menjaga rumpun serai yang baru mahupun membuat kerja-kerja penyediaan tanah.jika diusahakan secara teratur dan giat,sehektar tanaman serai mampu menghasilkan pendapatan sekitar rm2,000-4,000 sebulan bergantung kpd factor harga pemborong,lokasi mahupun musim permintaan.usaha tangga kejayaan.

mr @ristotle...shame on u

Kehidupan yg bermakna,biar dari sudut manapun perspektif yg diambil…menjadi idaman sejagat.antara dimensi-dimensi takrifan tersohor tentang kehidupan yg bermakna – pangkat,kemewahan,darjat/status,kemahsyuran mahupun kekuasaan.kesemua factor tersebut merupakan barometer kepada hampir semua manusia yg mendambakan kehidupan yg bermakna.tanpa pangkat,tanpa darjat tanpa harta kekayaan,hidup ini tidak bererti (life is meaningless) buat segelintir manusia yg beranggapan status quo adalah segala-galanya,hakiki.ako menyebutnya majlis kesyukuran,mereka menggelarnya gala nite,ako membahasakan amal mereka mentakrifnya sebagai festival…haha amat berbeza kehidupan yg ako lalui ini dgn beberapa rakan seangkatan dan seperjuangan…sehaluan namun berlainan destinasi.
Reformis sejati mengabdikan diri,roh dan nurani utk menjadikan kehidupan ini lebih bermakna,atau dalam erti kata yang amat mudah – menjadi lebih baik dr sebelum ini…hijrah.hijrah dr kegelapan kpd sinar,dr lemah kpd hebat,dr mundur kpd sistemetik,dr perhambaan kpd kemerdekaan tulen dsb.tiada yg lebih mulia dr hijrah.bagi seorang reformis tulen,sikap dan keyakinan mesti seiring dengan slogan yg dilaungkan…kehidupan yang adil,saksama,syumul,madani dan mungkin jua hadhari (gonna double check on the latter connotation).setiap kita wajib berkeyakinan bahawa segala kebaikan dan amal baik sesama insan adalah jaminan untuk menjadikan kehidupan ini lebih bermakna buat kita,keluarga,masyarakat,Negara dan alam semesta raya ciptaan Maha Pencipta Segalanya.namun…dalam dunia tanpa sempadan yg semakin panas suhu persekitarannya,konsep perhambaan yg telah lupus ditelan zaman kembali menampakkan riak wajah huduhnya.ako ingin menarik perhatian rakan2 ku semua,bahawa Aristotle (not the shipping tycoon) ahli falsafah greek yg terkenal dan tersohor ada menggambarkan dalam tulisannya tentang ciri2 kehidupan yg bermakna buat bangsa greek yang amat hebat itu : perhambaan!beliau menyimpulkan bahawa terdapat 2 jenis manusia mendiami bumi ini,golongan pertama dilahirkan dgn segala keindahan,kehebatan daya akal,tenaga dan kemahuan…iaitu bangsa yunani yg bertamadun;oleh kerana kesempurnaan ciptaan diri bangsa yunani itu,maka mereka berhak menjadi tuan kpd semua kejadian lain di muka bumi ini…seraya menguasai seluruh kejadian manusia yg lain.golongan selain dari bangsa yunani hanyalah dicipta dengan kelengkapan jasmani,kekuatan fizikal semata tanpa kehebatan akal!!!mereka dari puak ini digelar orang2 liar yang sinonim dengan gelaran barbar…mereka hanya ujud dibumi ini untuk menjadi hamba abdi kpd bangsa greek yg bertamadun,hebat,merdeka dan bebas.
Dunia modern kini,sistem perhambaan berkembang biak dan berpusat di negara2 islam timur tengah,atau lebih tepat lagi…negara2 yg melingkari/berhampiran Persian Gulf.negara2 tersebut pd zaman lampau merupakan pusat perdagangan,gedung ilmu,memiliki tamadun melangkaui peradaban zaman.namun,semua itu tidak bermakna pd waktu ini kerana apa yg ada dan tinggal kini hanyalah secebis dr kegemilangan silam.bangsa greek modern = Negara amerika yg bobrok itu dengan rakus dan tanpa segan menghamba abdikan negara2 timur tengah atas dasar hanya semata2 mahu menjamin kewujudan sebuah Negara kecil yg berbendera tanpa panji,yg merdeka tanpa daulat bernama tanpa wajah,berpengaruh tanpa maruah – Israel.dari golda meir (she needed a chap named ben gorian) ibu Israel (menjahanamkan mesir), hinggalah peristiwa yg merentap jiwa nurani ako sebagai manusia- shabra dan shatilla,dunia hanya mampu melihat sambil menongkat dagu serta berpeluk tubuh menghalalkan kebinasaan di luar akal fikiran manusia diperlakukan Israel yg dinaungi regime zionis antarbangsa terhadap manusia-manusia lemah di timur tengah.mengapa/kenapa(kah) afghan di “ratakan” oleh bom berangkai amerika?adakah kerana minyak?kerana al-qaeda ciptaan Negara bintang dan jalur itu?jauh sekali atas kehadiran bin-laden (ussamah),atau kerana industri agro menanam bunga poppy?jawapan yg tepat = kerana konsep perhambaan...need to refresh myself...taraaa.

Made few phone calls to wud be rubber plantation buyers…arranged a site visit,hopefully closing the deal afterwards…rub my hands in earnest…but wait a sec,did I hear syamsul’s voices echoing inside me head,wanting a pair of new footie boots n baby syark asking me to get him the latest version of resident evil disc or a new traveling backpack for suraya to pack her belonging before parting away to her hostel in a few weeks time?ouchhh reality bites,n it hurts,both my pocket n dream!!!~

be it or be@t it...one way or another :)

Asereje…a song by girls quartet-les ketchup.relating the name fleshing by those gals…need no more ketchup sauce,life,del monte (oww grown up on those del monte sauce),magi,Kimball,jalen,aminah hassan,yakin,kasturi etc etc…watchout don’t spill the sauce on ur robe,pls .actually sofea was using urs truly other haf notebook n all song she did hear from the laptop windows media player playlist asreje included.kids nowadays tend to outdo us…the more salty wiser parents.a fact not to be shied about.shud bragged bout that once in a while when the occasion arose…at year end get together amongst siblings .my third son represented his school in so and so competition,my youngest won the so and so essay writing comp…so on n on we cracked a few acknowledgment bout our kids as high achievers.
However high achievers might be them,our kids will always be our kids,no matter what,no matter how ol they were…we parents forever will refer em as our “kids”.who determined when they can go out to movies with their frens?or hanging about at bowling center or just a simple trip to the flashy trendy n upbeat boutique they frequent?the dogma : mama will be ur chaperon,ayah will drive u there n pick u up at 5:00 pm.even the sms doctor who went to the cosmos n back (he = sheikh muszaphar shukor) need his parents as his source of strength,don’t believe me…go n ask him.he the mighty cosmonaut orbited our ball shaped planet(me cant even figured out how many time he did orbited earth) and shud be warrior needs his mum’s n dad’s shoulder to cry.be frank to oneself…w/out em we forever will be mere mortals,no thomb stone,no memorial.they (parents) above rest,head n shoulders (not the shampoo brand of course la) leaps n bounds forever be our knight in the shining armour, battle ready.wud be witches readily thrown their gauntlet down,in awe of those mighty knights presence.

Think bout all the water = liquid,crystal,creamy,fluffy etc coming down from sky.there was no concrete dam once,to hold those zillions of cubic meter or other empirical measurement unit such as gallon,liter n not so scientific usage – barrel,truck load,pail etc.only the great flood (noah a.s) ever recorded on record =
…..because of their transgressions,they were drowned n destined for hell.they had none to help em against God… (Noah 71:1-26)
At present we hv the great kenyir,the gargantuan temenggor,the bersia,the pedu lake,the..the..the etcs bakun included in the not so far future.yet…each monsoon season the evacuates double or triple folded in increment.mind boggling n energy sapping to many poor soul,hard thinking clueless solution in the brain storming,think tank group who only worship = the 5 sigmas…poor ooo poor ppl ur in the wrong level or even directionless.misses the ark completely u guys hehe.stop cutting/falling down trees.yeap stop the forest/jungle/bush/shrub clearing.no palm oil tree pls.enuff is enuff.did u know it takes between half a century to more than a century for jungle n forest to replenish its ownself?meaning to say : no way jose cud u ever replace the gone giant redwood,the axebreaker,the berlian,the malam,the chengal batu/emas,the rosewood,the mahagony,the teak or even the humble merbau in ur life span.my grandmum once showed me a pix of her,in her mid 40s standing infront of a Californian giant redwood,which had a road passing thru its base trunk,a pleasure to see her all in mitten,windbreaker n insulated boots.p.s she was in califronia for 3 yrs-working n during breaks she went hiking all over California,Yosemite national park she did go n snapped those lovely pixs.so majestic the tree,she had to snap thrice just to make sure she hd the giant redwood pix in total from tip to end.did try to search for the tree when had the chance to go up there,Yosemite…to no avail…poor soul me!!!~
Banned illegal logging,shut down all logging operation…abolish all logging compartment tenders let say for a decade..across board,sabah or no sabah swak or no swak…peninsular in the list too.wait n see,cuz with mother nature,we must be patience.adequate time must be permitted for mother nature to readjust her self control panel,am sure positively confident after 10 yrs..no more hairy flood.flood will always be with us…no white lie here,no matter what,but the catastrophic flooding aint going to be a ritual.

r@ya...brings ppl 2gether

Zulhijjah 10,1428 = dec 20 2007.eid adha,to all muslims in msia.the wukuf was infact yesterday…in the Saudi kingdom.all worshippers as of typing is now officially known as haj/hajjah,they the choosen one,all salute n respect – worthy of the cause.
Went to the asy-syakirin mosque,100 meters from home with my other haf n the kids after having our usual brief b/fast thou menu of the morning was a grand one = nasik impit,ground/cashew nuts gravy,lodeh,rendang n pasta with meat sauce.felt a bit groggy cuz went to sleep around 5 am.old friendship were rekindle n renewed at the mosque,frens n ol buddies making the annual homecoming trip back to the neighbourhood.pleasing n comforting to see so many familiar faces,hamdan,yazid,amirul,hardy,khairul,muaamar,zairul,zahier,harris,zaki,
Fakhrul,fendi,wan noor,wan,putra,roslan,shahril n many others.
After the prayer,the bigger boys n me went to perform the qurban ritual…slaughtering a buffalo.with the willing helping hands of the locals n orphanage committee members,the whole process took a lil bit more than an hour to complete.around noon went straight home n shah was waiting eagerly for the fresh meat n bones…to cook dish of the day – meat rice.
She’d already soak the moghul basmathi rice n prepared the raw ingredients beforehand,so that by the time the boys n me had taken our showers n zuhur prayer…the sumptuous n delicious meet rice was all for us to savour…we had lunch at 2:30,syahrin as usual leads the prayer,thanking n seeking blessing from Allah,the al-mighty Lord.
As it happens,baby syark’s bday coincidently falls on the same day as eid adha,so it was a double celebration for our family this year.while I was away attending to the qurban process,shah had made the trip to the baker’s to pickup baby syark’s bday cake.hehe it seemed that she had made an error of judgement,coz baby syark sticked to her side like leech,pestering her to let him cut the cake!!!around 4pm went to a pet store nearby,namely abc pet shop (straight forward bzness addresse,iznt it?) in ipoh garden east n bought baby syark’s bday present,on behalf of my other half (she had promised the lil guy for a few weeks)…small animal cage n its accessories such as feeding bottle,bowl,cubes alfalfa hay,minerals bar,vits,shampoo n a set of playden – for his anggora wabbits – clikey,the male wabbit n lil becky, a black n white female.after asar prayer we had a private celebration,yet a bubbly one for baby syark’s bday.he cut the cake merrily n we all sang allah selamatkan kamu n hepi bday baby syark…followed by photo shoots.he was all smiles – ear to ear.his bros had pooled their pocket money to buy him a ps2 cds n his sisters gave him hugs n kisses on both cheeks plus a packet of sea weed,one of baby syark’s fav “junkie”.as for me…my usual present = a prayer to god for the well being of baby syark in all fields of life,amen!!!while bz celebrating baby syark’s special day makcik nafisah,a family fren n our neighbour dropped by n invited us all to her home right after isya’- raya gathering.so to conclude my typing…went to her home,enjoyed the good food n company of my fellow muslims,mingled among the crowd - poking fun here n there,more food,puffed few sticks of ciggy n after a while it was time to call it a day (the boys n gals had made an earlier trip home bound – they the telly addicted generation).walked n lead shah (hand in hand) home,as usual.paused for a few brief moment in front of our gate n told her “tomorrow early in the morning remind me to send back wan noor’s cargo cage k,yang”.eid adha…its magix brings ppl together - for a common cause.

Arini hari yg paling bermakna bagi semua umat islam,dimana jua anda berada.10 zulhijjah diraikan saban tahun oleh umat Muhammad saw.selaras dgn kehendak dan tuntutan agama islam yg kita anuti,semua org2 yg beriman dan bertaqwa akan bertasbih,bertahmid dan bertakbir sebaik shj terbenam matahari 9 hb zulhijjah,tidak terkecuali diri saya yg maha kerdil ini.amalan bertakbir bertasbih dan bertahmid telah dipupuk sedari kecil lagi oleh arwah ayah disayangi dan juga mama tercinta yg mementingkan nilai2 murni seorg muslim sejati dalam didikan mereka kpd kami..anak2 mrk.
seperti hari yg terindah,seindah matahari pagi menyinari alam ini,ayah dan mama tidak putus2/jemu2/henti2 mendidik kami dengan segala ilmu,baik dr segi ilmu duniawi dan ukhrawi.tuntutan kita sebagai insan yg diamanahkan menjaga alam ini – kita wajib menjadikan setiap hari dr hidup kita seceria mungkin,sehebat mungkin,sebaik mungkin dsb.ibadah qurban telah diamalkan oleh ayah dan mama seingat saya sejak dr saya kecil hinggalah kehari ini,tidak pernah ketinggalan menunaikan kewajipan sebagai muslim yg taat kpd perintahNYA dan meninggalkan segala laranganNYA.adakala sebahagian dr 7 bahagian utk seekor ternakan lembu/kerbau…mahupun seekor ternakan.atas sikap dan amalan mereka ini,saya sendiri dan keluarga telah mula menjadikan amalan bekorban ternakan utk hari paling besar bagi seluruh umat islam satu tuntutan agama yg dapat menyembuhkan hati/jiwa/rohani/nurani dan juga jasmani dari berbagai sifat mazmumah.
Wahai kawan2 ku,bekorban lah apa shj atas jalan allah.harta bertimbun,emas bercupak,duit berkepuk bukan jaminan utk kehidupan yg bahagia.kebahgiaan tidak dapat dirasai oleh org2 yg tamak,haloba dan bakhil (not akhil baligh…hehe).kehidupan yg sempurna ialah kehidupan yg sederhana dan mendapat keredhaan allah,di bumi ini.apakah sumbangan kita sebagai muslimin/muslimat utk menjadikan alam ini sebaik2 tempat utk menghayati kehidupan yg diingini?seri laman,kerukunan rekabentuk istana impian mahupun kehebatan alamat sahaja tidak memadai jika dalam kejiranan kita masih ada yg merintih utk mendapatkan sesuap nasik.oleh itu ayuhlah rakan2 ku marilah kita berganding bahu menjadikan hari raya qurban ini titik tolak kepada permulaan yg lebih bermakna buat kita mendambakan diri kita kpd kerja2 kebajikan dan amalan tanpa mengharapkan balasan.sertailah mana2 ngo pon.dr bulan sabit merah,puteri islam,pasukan kadet di peringkat sekolah mahupon pergerakan belia 4B,abim,mercymalaysia,suaram,greenpeace di peringkat yg lebih tinggi dll.ingatlah bahawa tangan yg menyumbang itu lebih baik dr tangan yg menerima.siapakah hartawan yg terkaya dikalangan bani quraisy?apakah yg dimiliki beliau selepas memeluk agama allah yg diredhai ini?tepuk dada Tanya selera.
Allah maha besar allah maha besar allah maha besar!!!~

xmas must be there come snow or flood no matter what cuz as Javanese family,yeap prefer to be a java than a Siamese fmly.my other haf readily went to tesco extra,where else, in anticipation of a crowdless,hassle free shopping around 5pm today.haha she cant even find a parking space upon entering tesco extra vast n well covered parking bays,as she wud normally do =drive n park n go shopping.so back home she went n waited n waited for my humble arrival,n waited she did…till she hd to rang me up asking for my where about,since the kancil’s with me.after a good maghrib prayer,went to tesco,yet again.this time ladyluck’s on our side.managed to find a place to park the road worthy kancil and off we went.grabbed the much needed stainless steel trolly zipped thru the auto gated hoarding at a frantic pace…need to make sure beat every other shopper at the cashier’s counter . first stop = nasik impit adabi,the economical 30 small packets,2 of those pls  tesco ground nuts,2 1 kilo

kids,big kids n not so big/small kids.few were pushing or errr rather the correct way = pull the shopping cart,many others were happy enuff just to sit in the cart itself hehe.at once,a striking idea popped up.recalling my handson xperience during xmas raiding the Lakewood mall for a pair of speakers at circuit city’s kiosk= using the automated shopping cart,yeap similar to those golfers buggy but smaller in width n length.if only tesco wud offer a local order.licking my lips in zest for the prospect of yet another brain damaging proposal…think me must flipped thru cobwebs of innovative idea for this new idea…n of course the battery powered cart must bear the testament of my labour…no glassfiber resin body parts pls,eco friendly speaks volume now a days.a nudge from shah got my attention

roses @rent alwiz red...but they do come in red @rent they...?

Egg is telo
wood is kayu
when I tido
I teringatkan u…haha funny words (cheah chan yuen 6A)
Those sweet phrases n many more were the art work of my primary schoolmates...inked n sealed in my autograph book.kept the hardbound to these days cuz most of the writings were special to me,as a classmate,friend n human.
One friend wrote : u always shared ur nasik goring with me…hope we can be classmates again…by rafiuddin bin abu baker,yeap his father’s name is abu baker originated from madras,India.sadly we parted company – he went to mrsm kulim and ur not so sparky here went to star ipoh.

One of my ustazah wrote : dear rizq,pls look down to the fresh green grass occasionally when ure upthere one day cuz..that’s where u once were…ustazah halimah binti ibrahim.plainly a second look need not be gazed towards these 3 sweet written phrases,yet it struck me when I went thru those pages during my college years.how I longed to be with em companion,craved the sweet boyhood memories n the motherly voices of my ustazahs n teachers…puan zainab,mrs khor,ms basha n mrs lee,the strict mr mat anjang pulau,mr warren,mr lee,cikgu zainal n others…all tribute to em.w/out them urs truly wont be no where near the present mark.
Puan zainab n mrs lee were my boy scout or wolfie cub teachers.from em I learned survival skills,knot tying,compass and map reading.went on to attain my silver patch at the annual boy scouts jamboree.it was fun n personally I hd a good outing,finishing third overall in the map reading competition,whereas in the knot tying event came 7th overall from 30 plus contestants.
Mr Lee n cikgu zainal were our school football coaches.under their tutolage I learned the rope of becoming a good central defender.they demonstrated to me about positioning,perfect timing,the art of tackling a center forward and most of important – fair play.they inculcated good values to us,the school footballers to be proud achievers,passionate team player,seeking none personal glory (no one above the team) n instilled great team spirit.we emerged as runnersup in the district championship,narrowly beaten by the better technically n tactically and far superior talent of sk sg rokam(had a hard time containing their center forwad-rahmat(hes a big,burly strong as a bull yet with quickest of feet…one of 6 org asli kids in sk sg rokam team sheet)a didier drogba as what to chelsea,spearheading the rentless attack on opponent’s goal as rahmat to sk sg rokam.were beaten what seemingly as endless as the flow of a river in the final,luckily adnan my sweeper and team captain save my blushes except for one great body move by rahmat managed to out witted both of us and resulted in a one nil defeat;as a footnote sk sg rokam went all the way,emerging as the state level champion that year…1979.three of my teammates went on to donned the state colors in the mssm competition,me not included since am still nursing a toe injury – a hairline fracture when I took a dive to save what looked like an apparent goal during a goal mouth scrambled;a goal line clearance n in doing so crashed my toe against the upright!!!took 6 months of healing process.my ankle was incast for 3 weeks n had to be treated by a fracture bomoh…six agonizing months just flew thru the window.my mum was all worried that am not going to overcome the injury,mind u limping for the best part of half a year.hehe looking back at what seems to be hard put to walk,am convinced w/out the injury am able to give other defender run for their money for a place in the state team.
Mrs Khor and ms basha were the school choir conductors.yeap am in the school choir roster  punctuality = is the doctrine.good vocal but no self discipline or u show up late for practises,they will be mad as a march hare;out u go.their rule = make it simple n fuss free.we must be as keen as a mustard to be a member of the school choir,told mrs basha.most of us,the choirboys had to stay back at school thrice a week to sort our vocal out,we had to sing our heart out,shouting,whisper,hissing in front of a mirror!!!after 2 months of intensive training we were all ready to be an assemble.since our school choir –all boy choir,we cant make a lasting impression on the judges,we aint in the consolation prize,even,tell u haha!!p.s. our voices were as loud as thunder,as sour as vinegar and as hoarse as a crow,all in one package put together!!!hehe.
Cikgu mat anjang pulau (now a registrar of marriage)was my class teacher,6A and the school hockey coach.his son,noor azlan bin mat was a classmate of mine.cikgu mat drives a blue mazda 808 ferrying half a dozen kids from his residential area to school,daily.during that period of time its common practice for teachers to act as a chauffer to schoolkids hehe.by car by bus,by truck,yeap truck aka school ferry deployed by the msian arm forces to transport army personnel’s kids to school,by motorbike,by bicycle,walk to school n by trishaw,u name it.cikgu mat,one of the stricter teacher teached me maths and bahasa malaysia.moulded me to appreciate figures n actual facts,his method n pedagogy of teaching the subject took my fullest attention n for the benefit of it,at par with mohd najib bin alwi ( my fellow starian n a medical practitioner right now) the school best student.by dint of learning the formule,am able to solve quite a number of quizzical mathematical equation.
In token of gratitude to my past masters-I salute u all for shapes,mould n form iam now,aint a jaundiced eye,neither a knotty problem guy,neither a left handed compliment nor an idle talk man.just a plain simple,fair copy,happy medium chap.

coded of ethics...grab a h@mburger pls...

Lost in translation…tis one thing not to my liking  uncomplicated it may seems,neither the subject matter nor the action taken determined the outcome.u say what?verbal aggrement = chokes me to the maxim.prudent might be my virtue but nonetheless caution thrown to the wind when it comes to closing a deal..esp one that can sunk even the great Spanish armada!!!~spoken words to my humble knowledge = simply unbreakable…binding,like concrete those british builder’s poured into the formwork of our majestic klcc twin towers,thou the brits were just comprador…taking charged of Indonesians,banglas etc nationalities breaking their back just for us to reap the benefits.most of my dealings were thru spoken words,not the kind of “akujanji” oath taken many by a civil servant who opt for the retirement scheme my other haf inclusive.thou conceptive it may be to some (a clear cut winner in any contest)…to me it aint gonna be the accepted kind of behaviour or action.to break the unspoken words of spoken words as its contemptuous…bordering scornful,as a cloak,a sword n a dagger ;yet many subscribe to the notion that “lost in translation” is mere n puny forgiveable,forsaken etc.
As there r three ways of doing things…namely the right way the wrong way n the myway hiway…urs truly is a stickler to the myway hiway option,like a punty.yeap anytime sir/maam!!!~
Building bridges,erecting telcos tower or putting up a fuel kiosk is a great black balancing act of : Lord the al-Mighty,architect,civil engineers(structure wise) the lists endless,but right smacked rotted at the bottom of my lists = consultant or in my term : con(abbreviation),insult and ant,all put one in a great syntax manner.
Ouuu con= un genuine,not authentic…errr hands up pls we r counting the vote…need a landslide outright here : liar,n a great one at that!!!~ the greatest liar is a conman himself.he makes/pokes a mockery of ur words,waiting to pounce on ur humble ignorance  they the cowardly wannabes hiding behind the overrated word of consultant,what u consult such insult!!!~things r different n will be different what equation u put to use,a true man is as good as his word,a nobelty,while those eagle eyed,green monsters aint half as good as my aunt jemaima’s maple syrup—pancake n waffle plus churrus sticks we flush down our throat.so u ppl out there,bite what u can chew,pls.leftovers are for me to decide!!!~

feline furr n wetty p@lm part 1 :)

Kucing @ cat.either we luv em or loath em.no spoilt vote here,period full stop.urs truly has cats,many of em.lets see…first there was pusi,a pure blooded Siamese cat when I was just a toddler given by mr smart,former manager of straits smelting to my late grandma and she passed pusi to me as a pet.we had laughter and fond memories together…me n pussi.she’ll sat on my tiny n feeble lap and I’ll pulled her tail haha what else a 3-yr-old boy can do much to entertain himself other than doing unexplainable things to the adult mind .sadly pusie fell gravely ill when I was about 4plus plus.my parents as all responsible parents, tried vainly to get pusie back to normal health..countless trips to the vet n homely quick fixed u’ll be well, all come up to no avail  after battling her mysterious illness for more than 2 mnths,pusie succumb to her illness and passed away peacefully under my dad’s Hillman Imp car one fine afternoon.my dad ceremoniously gave pusie a well sent off by putting her to rest under a mango tree infront of our home.then came inda an alley cat picked up by my dad at a construction site.thou an alley cat,inda = a rarity coz he’s a 3 stripe male cat.a really nuisance every morning cuz he’ll jumped on my bed and started licking my nose while making this strange “purring” sound.yucks!!!he’ll go all around me until I gaveup n got off my bed.that’s inda,a no nonsense alley cat  recalling back my memory with inda…he likes to chase cochroches,mice n birds.he spent most of his time wandering around the neighbourhood luring other female feline to bear his offsprings.that’s norm for any male alley cat day in day out – a routine inda had a tragic end to his colorful life – run down by something moving that have wheels.it was a sad day for me coz at the age of 11 ive learnt many emotional feelings.gave him an appropriate burial under a durian tree on the left side of my parents home.after inda,I havnt had the chance to own a cat until im in my junior year in college.since I befriended shah,she always pestered me to get her something for a pet.all her squeeking and gruntling to own a pet fell on deaf ears of urs truly,not that I do not want her to own pet or afraid she might chided me and spent her time with her will be pet –just the timing aint right during summer break in 1988,received a late night phone call from shah asking me to take her to Montgomery Ward,one of down town Long Beach premier shopping mall the nxt dy.deep dwn in my heart I know this is it,time to finally hold the white flag and bought her a pet cuz 2 dys beforehand shah had told me she’ll be getting herself a pet,no matter what. So around 9 am on a heaty summer day in 1988 picked up shah at her apt #1,walnut avenue and heading straight to downtown long beach.had our b/fast at a Vietnamese run donut house,instead of our normal donut outpost – windchell’s.had a sugar raise n a cup of tea,while my opposite half had her usual apple pie .after a few banter we went to a pet shop at the said mall n w/out further delay pickup a black as coal crossed breed male kitten.20 bucks changed hands n we made a swift exit from the mall.upon reaching home shah told me the kitten will be named che tam haha too obvious eyy?nevertheless che tam he is until the sad day we hd to part company with him,three weeks after graduation day.in between the hot summer month of 1988 and the wintery month(there’s no snow blizzard anywhere near long beach,even a tiny drop of snow flake shied away cuz long beach is a costal city 30 mins drive south of los angeles where the infamous and notorious monghul of long beach,all harley D riding motorcycles brotherhood were based;not even the world reknown hell’s angels motorcycles chapter dared to confront the monghul  am proud of u monghul braders : live to die not live to ride )of dec 31st 1989 che tam = our common pet.one distinguished memory stuck out with che tam was the day he had a nasty fall n dislocated

feline furr n wetty p@lm :)

his spine n pelvis!that day started smoothly for me since I was a full time janitor at the student union,all work = mundane n monotones.around 5pm went home to my apt n there shah was sitting in front of my apt door waiting for me weeping n holding che tam.che tam looks vulnerable n seemingly dead!!~shah told me che tam had a nasty fall n w/out any delay took both shah n che tam to a vet…haha that vet is a one legged vet-he had a wooden left leg,just like any pirate captains..thou no hook as his limb replacing his hand  he examined che tam for quite a while in the treatment room and said this to shah n me : “listen u guys…ur cat need to be put to sleep!!!~aiyo yo the roof seemed to be falling pieces by pieces onto our head.we looked to each other in disbelief  we were mimed!!!~even a pin drop cud be heard in the room…after a momentarily pause I cleared my throat and ask the vet if theres n e other way to save che tam…a grin appeared on the vet face (I forgot his name) n told us; “will cost u usd150 n he had to be hospitalized for 2 dys” it’s a done deal n after 2 dys che tam received his welcome home note.he cleared the fitness bill  but it did hurt my pocket thou.haha what do u think I am (pls put ur comment on this-do need to get things straight)…cant let shah pay the bill since she just bought me a pair of levis jeans at costa mesa swap meet n a metallica album – garage day revisited from tower records outlet along the sunset boulevard the week b4 .while having che tam we had sandy,a cat presented by a fren of my other half , she’s a wooly n cuddly thing I can lay my hands on during the short tenure of owning her.she has to be sent away to an animal shelter since she has too many fleas no matter what flea shampoo or collar we use!heaviest n hardest decision we took on taking such a course  however we know she had a good home cuz after 2 weeks,she was gone from the shelter – a high school girl took her away from the shelter .we didn’t have anymore cats until we have sofea,our daughter…too bz minding n tending to life,nei bother to own pet other than a few guppys n angel fish plus a pair of Indonesian kalui fish  since fish is ezier to look after and more manageable.however a golden opportunity sprung up when my elder sister offered her pure blooded Burmese cat plus cage,one sack of frieskies n some other peripherals essential for grooming a cat.we took the opportunity with both hands wide open–freebies lorrr  this mocha (yeap tats her name) was a nice velvet palm cat.she’ll sleep n sleep all day long.not the tail chasing type…thou small in stature,she aint nimble.her steps = like duck going home during sunset ( itek pulang petang)  both shah n me always had a few sticks commenting the gangling gait mocha present herself.haha no wonder u models doing catwalk!!~meow meeeow.true to the saying : cats hv nine lives,mocha indeed has 9 plus 10  after 2 yrs with us,had to part way with her since syamil is due to get out from u know where to our warm n cozy lap.since then cats = aint allow inside our home cuz wall to wall carpeting replacing the insitu torazzo.now..where did I see laminated flooring ads,rock bottom price!!!~cats out there pls take ur number up coz this ol man need some fun,cat style.

Desperation provides fettile ground for religious extremism
This glorious brainwashing where prejudice lies
Like a crouching tiger
Tormenting peasants till they erect an army
Under everyone's nose
In the end propaganda destroys their DNA,God help them

wedding - my w@y

Walimatul-urus – from my humble perspective.traditional values versus the more uptodate modern hybrid cross mixed menu onboard.
Of late there r all sorts of chaos among the old guard protecting what may be left of our traditional malay wedding custom,namely the merisik,menanda,meminang-bertunang,hantaran belanja hangus (burnt burnt),majlis berinai (henna?),majlis akad nikah,majlis mambatalkan air sembayang n lastly the garndiest of all…mother or errrr grandma of all occasion – bersanding cum wedding reception (elaborate décor,u do not know whois the guests on board,banquet feast fit for the king of this earth,yeap u read it correctly no need to take a closer look : king of the earth if there’s one  ),…hold on a sec need to catch my breath  my hands on xperience came in the early part of mid 20’s.naah not 1820’s or 1920’s laaa dowh!!!by the end of the ceremonious wedding reception,both my other haf n me = mentally,physically,spiritually n emotionally drained,just like a piece of linen tumbled dry in the dryer again n again!!~haha aint typing no more.
