Stupidity EXISTS!!!

Was reading the NST just now, was furious and was wondering what is happening to the society, the news was where a year old toddler was raped by two grown up. What is so luring those two bastard to the little toddler barely one years old. OMG, sick bastards!!! Here is the link, http://www.nst.com.my/Current_News/NST/Tuesday/National/2434827/Article/index_html

Other than that, this spark my will to blog about it. The title of the news is 'RM20 to watch a Hollywood movie?'(http://www.nst.com.my/Current_News/NST/Wednesday/National/2435809/Article/index_html)

The Malaysia Film Producers Association is pushing for their luck. They are working their ways to increase the movie ticket from current RM9-RM12 to at least RM20 in order to boost up the support that cinema goers to go for local film as compared to Hollywood. Is that the idea? Yes, that could happen, but who will benefit more? At the current pricing, the pirates already selling at the price ranging from RM5-RM13 a show. When they hike up the price, i believe that local movie will goes up in sales, probably they will domonate malaysia market as most cinema goers will opt for home video entertaintment, courtesy of 'legal' pirates of Malaysia. They then could also hike up the price of the DVDs as demand increase, price also can increase according to economic theory. So think deep, who will benefits the most?

Common, use your brain, don't keep it in the freezer. Think of a better solution than that, is that all you have MFPA? BTW, do Malaysia really produce good quality English movies at this moment? I don't think so... If that really happens, bet a lot of people will go jobless by then. Wondering why? Imagine Mid Valley GSC with 20 screens, all showing local film, little showing Hollywood movies as it is so expensive and cheaper solutions available, then surely they management would need to cut some people and those unlucky, sorry for you, go and curse the MFPA.

To all in the film industry, you need to find and make a living and not just by cutting short on your competitor. It doesn't work that way.

Life in exchange for cables?

I was browsing through The Star and came across this news where a police officer was killed while on duty. After reading further, i realize that he was shot dead by his counterpart while chasing someone trying to steal some cables from roadside. The link tothe news is as follow: http://www.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2008/12/24/nation/2886575&sec=nation

I was wondering, if found guilty of stealing cables from some location in town, does it carry a death sentence or wounded limbs? I was wondering why live bullets were fired towards the guilty guy caught stealing cable and running for life in order not to be capture? Wouldn't that be a natural instinct for a 'criminal' as a whole to be running for their dear life? I was having in mind that a great cop will be chasing for the thief for 9 whole streets to capture the thief, but instead bullets was chasing after their pitiful soul. They indeed should be punish for doing such an act where it could be a danger to the public and also inconvenience to whom the cable might be linked to, but does the sentence equivalent to death?

Hmm... I am really wondering and would really like to have a look at the photo of the two policeman, would they be two fat guy doing their patrol daily with their dose of teh tarik with roti canai or nasi lemak whereby they no longer fit to run and decided to send their best pal to go after the thief, in this case would be refering to the loyal one time use only, bullets of a .35mm. If that is the case, then i rest my case with a giggle (even someone died in the process, but what has happened to our police force? I was visiting Hong Kong, their police personnel was in tip top condition, bet they can chase you 9 streets!!!)

Lesson of the day: Thief, robbers and those small time criminal not equip with any weapon, DO NOT run, else you will be shot!!! Squad down and don't let them chase after you, else the bullets will come after you.

Barriers of communication. Does it exists?

Just now while i was in the lift, i nearly giggled. Why?

Cause there were these two malay people, one male one female. The gentleman was talking in English, i would conclude that he has a good English background and would be able to speak fluent English. As for the other lady, she was speaking in Malay (Bahasa). We Malaysian do realise that we have multiple language that we can use, but these two person was talking in dfferent language on the same conversation. The gentleman kept talking in English meanwhile the lady was replying and communicating in Malay, this kept going on for few minutes while in the lift. It amazes me as this we would consider as 'Chicken and Duck Talk'. Haha...

My thoughts for today

Coming year end, but seems work is picking up, more than what i can imagine. Been alone in office these few days and has been pretty tired as lots to do, yet so little time. From today, there will be another 8 days until going into year 2009. What has been accomplish so far for year 2008? I am still pretty much in the dark of what has happen, looking into 2009 is not too much brighter after all.

Now i am just waiting for Christmas, but before christmas will be attending one musical show, Mamma Mia @ Istana Budaya which happens to be tomorrow. Can't wait to watch this smashhing musical show...

Then coming to Christmas, as usual to have Christmas Dinner meal, especially the turkey @ Sarah's place :) Not her cooking, but her mum... Thanks in advanced. What's more for Christmas? Nothing much, as this year is a busy year, as for Christmas day itself, i might need to provide support to PCSB customer as few rigs would be tentatively drilling on that day. Come on, give me a break :( Its Christmas... Santa, i want a worryless Christmas...Can i?

What is after Christmas? I plan to take a day leave on Boxing Day, so that can relax a bit after working for logn long hours for the past week. Been pretty hectic actually, so think this is the best time to recharge and at the same time to prepare for our Penang trip on 27-29 Dec 08. Will be driving up to Penang and look for few friends to seek their help to bring us around, those that i am targetting will be Chin Leng, Khai Chen and also Mei Leng.


After that, then will be new year already. Not sure what is my plan yet, as this year been pretty unplanned and the pretty gals in my team all have teamed up and took leave for this whole week, so it is not that easy for me to take leave. Lets see how it goes, hope all goes well for New Year, 2009. Hope all turns out well for the coming new year and hope all will have a great year ahead despite the economic downturn that affecting globally.

Friends as DJ?

Hmm...was listening to FLY FM this morning. They were having a topic on what surprise party that went wrong. Not the topic that interest me, but is the topic that i strike back and thought... "What do you think to have your DJ friends taking tales from our daily life and making it up as a topic"? One of the DJ were describing one of their ex-bf and how he reacted and etc. OMG, it would be fun to be listening to those jokes, but what if you in turn turn out to be in the story told? It would be of a total diffenrent story then right? Haha... just wondering if anyone else would have encounter this feelings before, not the feelings of being betrayed by letting go the story, just probably more to the embarrased i guess :) Anyway, lucky me, i don't have any friends working as a DJ yet :)

Stress + Friends + Wii = ???

This is what my friend is capable of :) Bravo ...

Sad? Moody? Depression?

I don't know why or how, but currently i am not feeling happy from inside out. Why? Not sure at all, just don't feel happy now. Perhaps due to my work life which is kind of bothering at times? Hmm... am i complaining or what? I am confused now actually, but perhaps i need time to think and get things straight for my life. Drastic change for drastic measures? Let me think...

Christmas Show in MidValley - Circus Theme

Went to MidValley the other day to get something for my office but end up having some shots there which were related to circus theme this year in MidValley. Below is some of the shots taken that day. Enjoy it :)



After shooting the event which lasted for about half an hour, i went walking and trying to seek for the dealer selling Izzi, but end up there was no more IT shop in MidValley that sells Izzi. So i headed up to LowYat to get it along with some other stuff that i need to get/stock up.

What has become of Malaysia?

Sigh, reading the newspaper can sadden me at times. I was browsing the NST when i saw this news article, whereby parang gang in Klang been slashing people, up to the extend to cause death.

http://www.nst.com.my/Current_News/NST/Friday/National/2414103/Article/index_html

Now i wonder, what the police have been doing at that area? Similar gang operating the same way, what are they waiting for? Waiting for them to cause more harm to society? Please act now than later!!! What could be the best consequences for their action? DEATH!!! Why? Cause they have cause death themselves and also cause misery to other people while they go up high on drugs while trying to commit crimes like robbery. Robbery itself should not end up with death sentences, but robbery which ended up with death should eventually be concluded for those who caused the death to the victims. This is the only way to ensure that no crazy people go around town to cause havoc and such incident to anyone else.

Things coming to an end, Marks the beginning of the other

Coming to think of it, it has already been Sarah's last day @ EDS (formely known as SITI/Shell IT International). I was from there previously as well, before i join the company i am at now, Halliburton Energy Services. Hmm... thinking back, i was there for about 1 year plus and Sarah has been about 2.5 years already. Those were the great times that i had there back then, with Sarah, Khairul, Shuh Han, Wan Leng, Faizal, Hashim and Chee Lung.

Those were the times where we were building up the team and also setting all the procedure into its place. It was hard times, but we all poured in our efforts and also to make the best out of the tight schedule that we have. With the added new resources, the team grew in size quickly and more work to do for the team. However, more people means more issue and also more trouble, but those were able to get over with and then we were already enjoying the company of each other in the team. Those were the great and happy times, but it all came to an end when the company back then, SITI plan to outsourced to EDS. Hence, most of the people will find their own way in their career path. It all started with Khairul leaving us, then myself, later Christine and Suet Yi. Now it has come to the time for Sarah, later this week will be Chin Leng. Seems like 6 of us, have or will be part of the history for SITI AppsCompat Team.

Perhaps more will be leaving one day, but hope all will get a better career path in life, especially Sarah who will be starting her new job soon. Hope all goes well for her in her job and also have a pleasant sail ahead :)
