PM Najib Kata ....

dari Berita Harian hari ini 28hb Februari 2012

"Insya Allah, jika Barisan Nasional (BN) diberi mandat dua pertiga pada 
Pilihan Raya Umum Ke-13, pindaan Perlembagaan sewajarnya akan dilakukan dan 
Suruhanjaya Perkhidmatan Pencegahan Rasuah akan dibentuk"

tapi ... yang menjadi persoalan nya ialah, kenapa nak tunggu menang dengan majoriti 2/3 ? rasanyakan lah, kalau PM bentangkan di Parlimen bagi memastikan SPRM /MACC benar-benar dapat menjalankan tugasnya tanpa gangguan mana-mana pihak, mestilah Pakatan Rakyat sokong. 

Tak gitu ... Dato Seri Anwar ???

What if I say welcome to Malaysia ???


WELCOME TO HOLLAND


c1987 by Emily Perl Kingsley. All rights reserved

I am often asked to describe the experience of raising a child with a disability - to try to help people who have not shared that unique experience to understand it, to imagine how it would feel. 

It's like this......

When you're going to have a baby, it's like planning a fabulous vacation trip - to Italy. You buy a bunch of guide books and make your wonderful plans. The Coliseum. The Michelangelo David. The gondolas in Venice. You may learn some handy phrases in Italian. It's all very exciting.

After months of eager anticipation, the day finally arrives. 

You pack your bags and off you go. Several hours later, the plane lands. The stewardess comes in and says, "Welcome to Holland."

"Holland?!?" you say. "What do you mean Holland?? I signed up for Italy! I'm supposed to be in Italy. All my life I've dreamed of going to Italy."

But there's been a change in the flight plan. They've landed in Holland and there you must stay. The important thing is that they haven't taken you to a horrible, disgusting, filthy place, full of pestilence, famine and disease. It's just a different place.

So you must go out and buy new guide books. And you must learn a whole new language. And you will meet a whole new group of people you would never have met. It's just a different place. It's slower-paced than Italy, less flashy than Italy. But after you've been there for a while and you catch your breath, you look around.... and you begin to notice that Holland has windmills....and Holland has tulips. Holland even has Rembrandts.

But everyone you know is busy coming and going from Italy... and they're all bragging about what a wonderful time they had there. And for the rest of your life, you will say "Yes, that's where I was supposed to go. That's what I had planned." And the pain of that will never, ever, ever, ever go away... because the loss of that dream is a very very significant loss.

But ... if you spend your life mourning the fact that you didn't get to Italy, you may never be free to enjoy the very special, the very lovely things ... about Holland.



Post 901 ... Battleground Malaysia

Yesterday 9th January 2012, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim accepted a verdict that most people thought otherwise. DSAI, the Opposition Leader will now work on Pakatan Rakyat offer to the people of Malaysia as the next alternative government. 

Their experience at the moment are State Government of Kelantan, Kedah, Pulau Pinang, Selangor and for a short period Perak.

Can they do it ???

Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and the Barisan Nasional on the other hand governs Malaysia (the Federation) and all the other states. With all the transformation agenda, and the goodies offered to the people during the 2012 Budget, will hope to maintain governing the country and win back lost grounds.

Can they do it ???

I have only one vote, how about all the others eligible voters ????

Good Luck Malaysia.

I'm Sorry


The Pencil and Eraser

PENCIL
    I’m sorry

ERASER   
    For what? You didn’t do anything wrong.

PENCIL
    I’m sorry because you get hurt because of me. Whenever I made a mistake, you’re always there to erase it. But as you make my mistakes vanish, you lose a part of yourself. You get smaller and smaller each time.

ERASER

    That’s true. But I don’t really mind. You see, I was made to do this. I was made to help you whenever you do something wrong. Even though one day, I know I’ll be gone and you’ll replace me with a new one, I’m actually happy with my job. So please, stop worrying. I hate seeing you sad.

I found this conversation between the pencil and the eraser very inspirational. Parents are like the eraser whereas their children are the pencil. They’re always there for their children, cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes along the way, they get hurt, and become smaller / older, and eventually pass on. Though their children will eventually find someone new (spouse), but parents are still happy with what they do for their children, and will always hate seeing their precious ones worrying, or sad.

All my life, I’ve been the pencil. And it pains me to see the eraser that is my parents getting smaller and smaller each day. For I know that one day, all that I will be left with would be eraser shavings and memories of what I used to have.

How many of us actually realize all this, life is like a cycle, although a PENCIL will never be an ERASER, a son or daughter will one day be a father or mother (ie Parents), and therefore the cycle will begin. If you learn during your journey, you tend to make less mistakes. However, like it or not, with this changing world you need to adapt, learn, innovate and be creative.

Good Luck.

On the 3rd Day of the total 366 Days

2012 is a Leap Year

Yes this year we have an extra day ... as if most people care.

Just like its just another second, min, hour, day, week, months and another year. I thought its just awhile back since the world celebrate 2011 ... and just so suddenly its already 2012. Well all over the world, the owner of fireworks made a lot of money, they would have wished that New Year is everyday.

Here in Malaysia, we hope it will be a better year. Better for the family, in all area. Hoping for the kids that goes to School, be it Primary, Secondary and University to do well. It does not get any easier, but life goes on and all must learn to cope with it. As parents it gets much and more difficult by the day. They smarter by the seconds nowadays.

What ever it is, time flies faster that a speeding bullet.

So GOOD LUCK you all ...

RM100.00 & Pelajar Sekolah

Dengar kata, esok sekolah-sekolah diseluruh Malaysia akan mula menyerahkan RM100.00 kepada setiap pelajar yang layak. Maka, kalau ikut perangkaan dari Kementerian Pelajaran, ada lebih kurang 5.3 juta pelajar, jadinya 530 juta ringgit akan diagih-agihkan lah. 

Banyak tu ...

Tapi ... kenapa ya?

Dah kerajaan nak bagi duit, kita ambillah ... bagi yang bayar INCOME TAX, kira DISCOUNT lah RM100.00 tu, yang tak bayar tu, kira HADIAH la. Bolehlah beli, beg, baju, kasut dan sebagainya untuk tahun 2012 ni. 

Tapi barang-barang tu makin mahal la ...

ILMU & BAHASA

Yang mana lebih penting ? ILMU atau BAHASA ???

Mestilah Ilmu ... tanpa perlu lagi perdebatan. Dengan ILMU sesiapa sahaja boleh menguasai BAHASA, tetapi dengan BAHASA tidak semestinya seseorang itu dapat menguasai ILMU. Maka hari ini sejak sekian lama kita di Malaysia masih lagi ditakuk lama bercerita tentang BM (Bahasa Melayu) ke atau English (Bahasa Inggeris). 

Tapi ini adalah cakap orang politik yang mungkin tak ada lagi anak yang bersekolah di Malaysia atau anak-anak mereka bersekolah di International School ataupun di luar negeri.

Bagi pendokong Bahasa pula, dah kerja mereka, tapi dah lebih 50 tahun MERDEKA, tak selesai-selesai lagi cerita ini. Kalau kia kaji, mesti ada silapnya. 

Apa yang membuatkan Bahasa Thai berjaya di Thailand, atau Bahasa Indonesia digunapakai secara menyeluruh di Indonesia oleh semua golongan masyarakat mereka. Berberapa kenalan saya yang berbangsa Tionghua yang pelat berbahasa Melayu, menjadi fasih dalam Bahasa Indonesia tidak berapa lama apabila mula berkecimpung diarena perniagaan di Indonesia dan perlu berkomunikasi dalam bahasa Indonesia di sana. Bila mereka berkomunikasi, bahasa utama mereka adalah Mandarin, tapi sekiranya perlu mereka mengunakan Bahasa atau slanga Indonesia dengan baik. 

Kenapa ??? 

Saya berpeluang ke Indonesia satu ketika dulu, dan pergi ke kedai buku untuk mencari buku baru, judul-judul terbaharu telah siap dialih bahasa ke Bahasa Indonesia. Ini bermakna, mereka tidak mahu rakyat mereka yang mungkin tidak memahami bahasa asal hilang hak kepada isi buku, baik fakta mahupun cereka. 

Di Negara kita pun, kalau kita ke Terengganu atau Kelantan, orang dari kaum yang buka melayu berbahasa denga slanga Kelantan atau Terengganu tak ubah macam orang Melayu, kalau tak tengok rupa atau "face to face" mungkin ingat melayu.

Kenapa boleh ???

Dulu-dulu masa sekolah tahun 60 han - 70 han, kita tak ada masaalah bangsa dan bahasa. Sekarang ni slogan sana sini, bahasa entah kemana, perpaduan dan perkauman makin teruk lagi. Semuanya pasal yang bercakap tentang bahasa dan perpaduan tidak ada keikhlasan.

Masa tu, ada English Medium, Sekolah Kebangsaan dan SJK (C) & (T). Tapi sejak berapa lama ni, "English Medium" dah berkubur, maka dengan sendirinya kefasihan dalam ber Bahasa Inggeris juga merudum. Yang menariknya ... Bahasa Melayu (ada yang sebut Bahasa Malaysia) tak kemana juga. 

Kalau di kajilah agaknya, beraparamai murid Melayu dari Tahun 1 hingga Tahun 6, Tingkatan 1 hingga Tingkatan 5/6 dan yang di Kolej atau Universiti yang Bahasa Melayu mereka baik atau cemerlang !!! 

Yang dari bangsa lain, tak pasti lah.

Dah cuba PPSMI ... tak nak ... sekarang nak cuba pula MBMMBI (entahlah betul ke tidak), itu TDM ini TSMY, lepas tu nanti siapa jadi PM/Menteri dia tukar lagi. Apa mereka ingat anak-anak kita ni boleh test-test tengok mana boleh dapat undi banyak ke. mereka tu dulu, sekolah mana, "English Medium", "Malay School" ke atau belajar kat "Oversea".

Dah ada polisi baru, bila ada pihak yang tak setuju (PAGE & JMM), dia buka kesah sangat, dia ada kuasa. Lepas tu ada pula yang ambil jalan mudah, ikut aje macam Kerbau di cucuk hidung (NUTP dan PIBG Nasional), kita ikut aje lah. 

Nampak gayanya, IBUBAPA kena buat sendirilah, kalau nak anak-anak berjaya dapat ILMU, kenalah usaha dari luar, kalau mampu dan ada duit, ajar sendiri atau bayarlah orang lain ajar. Pada yang tak mampu, apa boleh buat ... pak Menteri pandai sangat ... teramat pandai.

Dah sampai masa dah, Pelajaran dan Pendidikan dikeluarkan dari kekangan POLITIK, ini masa depan anak-anak kita, ia mesti diletakkan dibawah satu SURUHANJAYA yang bebas dengan semua pihak yang berkepentingan diberi ruang untuk memberi pandangan dan membuat keputusan. Kerajaan yang memerintah perlu menyediakan "Geran KHAS" dari belanjawan tahunan dibawah kawalselia SURUHANJAYA tersebut. 

Adakan AKTA khas, semua anak-anak Malaysia mempunyai HAK kepada ILMU yang terbaik, dengann apa bahasa pun.
