Meskipun selepas lebih sedekad, ekonomi Malaysia belum pernah pulih sepertimana sebelum kegawatan ekonomi 1997-98.

Polisi, program dan dana yang ditabur oleh pemerintah sepanjang tempoh itu ibarat mencurah air di daun keladi. Ianya sia-sia semata.

Pesaing yang setara dengan paras pertumbuhan Malaysia sebelum krisis ekonomi sedekad lalu, kini semakin jauh memacu pertumbuhan dan meninggalkan kita.

Sejak awal tercetusnya Gerakan Reformasi, antara penentangan kita terhadap kelompok elit penguasa menyentuh soal kaedah pengurusan dan dasar ekonomi yang tempang.

Tiga perdana menteri yang berkuasa selepas Krisis Ekonomi Asia (Dr Mahathir Mohammad, Abdullah Badawi dan Najib Razak) gagal memulih dan memacu semula pertumbuhan setara dekad 90-an dahulu.

Malah, pada ketika itu Bank Dunia pernah meletakkan Malaysia di antara negara-negara membangun utama dan dipanggil “keajaiban ekonomi Asia” atau “naga Asia”.

Walaubagaimanapun, kita kaget dengan data terbaru Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu (PBB) berhubung Laporan Pelaburan Dunia 2010 membayangkan sang naga yang semakin menikus.

Fakta yang tidak dapat disangkal adalah tahap pelaburan langsung asing, atau FDI, jatuh merudum sehingga 81 peratus pada tahun 2009.

Daripada laporan tersebut, Malaysia sudah jauh terkebelakang berbanding negara-negara yang dahulunya lemah seperti Thailand, Indonesia dan Filipina.

Apakah dengan angka dan data ini, masih boleh diharapkan untuk Pertumbuhan Dalam Negara Kasar (KDNK) mencecah 5-6 peratus sepertimana yang disasarkan Najib?

Hanya pak turut Umno-BN sahaja yang masih terangguk-angguk dan melutut di hadapan Najib.

Najib yang membentangkan dua siri Pakej Ransangan Ekonomi, tidak pernah sekalipun mampu menjawab hujahan dan kritikan Ahli-Ahli Parlimen Pakatan Rakyat.

Telahan saya, perangkaan pertumbuhan ekonomi Malaysia pada tahun ini kemungkinan besar akan tersasar sama sekali.

Setelah angka Laporan Pelaburan Dunia tersebut menjadi buah mulut, pemimpin UMNO mulai melatah dan menyerang Kerajaan Negeri-Negeri Pakatan Rakyat secara membuta tuli.

Ini tidak lain dan tidak bukan cuma helah mereka untuk mengalihkan tumpuan dan fokus rakyat daripada isu yang lebih mendesak.

Bezakan sahaja dengan Anwar Ibrahim tatkala mengemudi pertumbuhan negara yang pesat dan mampan ketika memegang jawatan Menteri Kewangan.

Ketika itu, Anwar masih sempat memperingatkan kita perihal kisah Nabi Yusuf A.S.; sepanjang tempoh subur selama tujuh tahun, perlunya untuk berjimat dan berhemah bagi berhadapan tujuh tahun kemarau.

Terbukti pengajaran di dalam firasat mimpi Yusuf itu benar dan cocok sekali dengan pengalaman Malaysia.

Sebaliknya, kisah yang nyata mahu ditutup dan tidak diendahkan langsung oleh elit politik dan sang penguasa.

Kritikan Anwar terhadap sikap cuai dan haloba dilontarkan di dalam buku beliau, “Gelombang Kebangkitan Asia”—buku yang kemudiannya dibakar oleh Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP) pada 2001.

Rasuah, korupsi dan salahguna kuasa ternyata barah yang merebak dari kelas elit sehingga ke kelas bawah; dari pemimpin tertinggi sampai kepada pembantu am.

Jikalau orang bertanya, apakah yang menyebabkan ekonomi Malaysia separah hari ini, jawapan yang kita temukan iaitu sanubari pemimpin negara yang rosak akibat tamak.

Di dalam keruh dan beban gelita mutakhir ini, kita berdoa agar “musim kemarau” yang sedang dialami oleh negara dan bangsa kita akan segera berlalu.

July, isn’t a great month for me, yet, as I took the wrong challenge. Anyway, it’s coming to an end, which is great. I can process to some other top priority stuff myself, do some green shopping, watch some movie and spend quality time at home. I spend less time with my laptop this month. It’s a surprise I manage to get away from laptop for such a long time and still comfortable with it

There are still some pending job to do, and I am here trying to relax a bit. See! Being a web designer and working at home is just not as they have imagined.

I got so much distraction working at home, I may some times, become a driver and drive them around, because they thought I am free sitting at home, waiting for money to fly in. After all, at this digital age, games is the top priority for computer.

Every end of the month, we both would check all our balance, to see if we reach our sales target, or perhaps, can we survive next month for the money collected this month. Though it is easy to survive over here with its low-cost living style, but saving for next move is always our priority too. That is the stress I get most of the time – Target!

WordPress is now known to be a CMS (Content Management System) instead of a simple blogging platform. A lot of developers like to create website using it, to save quality time on building a website and spending time styling each page.

However, a newbie to WordPress, like how it happen to me previously, would spend time styling the PHP files for a custom home page in WordPress. That will takes a long time, especially when copy need to be revise or added.

First in functions.php, we register a new widget,

register_sidebar(array(
‘name’ => ‘Home Page’,
‘description’ => ”,
‘before_widget’ => ‘<div class=”home-widget”>’,
‘after_widget’ => ‘</div>’,
‘before_title’ => ‘<h4>’,
‘after_title’ => ‘</h4>’,
));

Then, in index.php, we point the front page / home page of default WordPress to a place where it is widgetized to allow custom content.

<?php if(is_home() || is_front_page()) { ?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id=”content”>
<?php if ( !function_exists(‘dynamic_sidebar’) || !dynamic_sidebar(‘Home Page’) ) : endif; ?> // Home page widget
</div>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

<?php } else { ?>
// Default WordPress loop
<?php } ?>

A couple weeks ago, WordPress team released WordPress 3.0 but I didn’t upgrade immediately because an upgrade like this will always bring along many bugs, so I waited for awhile and heard the feedback from people who upgraded to WordPress 3.0. Eventually, WordPress team had fixed all the bugs in WordPress 3.0 and released WordPress 3.0.1 on 29th July 2010. That was a brilliant upgrade as WordPress team fixed 54 bugs and most of them came from WordPress 3.0.

WordPress 3.0 hit 11 million downloads in just 42 days as stated by WordPress team, so you can imagine how many people are using WordPress blogging platform, I’m proud to be one of them.

How I Upgraded from WordPress 2.9.1 to WordPress 3.0.1?

Usually I don’t simply upgrade to the latest version unless I really need the latest version of wordpress to be capable with some plugins or some other features, otherwise I’ll wait another upgraded version instead of the beta version. I’ve just hired a designer to design an unique Thesis Skin for this blog, I worry that the thesis skin that the designer create doesn’t capable with the WP version, so I upgraded to WordPress 3.0.1 just now before anything happens in coming days.

Before I upgraded this blog to the latest WordPress version 3.0.1, I upgraded one of my blogs to see was there anything happened. Everything looked great and I went ahead and upgraded for this blog. Remember, be sure you BACKUP your blog and database before hitting the “Upgrade” button.

Normally I’ll download the whole wordpress file from FTP and save in local disk, backup the database as well. Nevertheless, the network is kinda slow and I was lazy to download the whole wordpress file in several hours or a day, so I backup the database and hit the “Upgrade” button. Thanks god, everything was running smooth!

First Bugs Found In WordPress 3.0.1

This blog is running Thesis Theme Version 1.7, one of my blog buddies told me few weeks ago that he had problem with the “Custom File Editor” after upgrading to WordPress 3.0. I did a check on the “Custom File Editor” after upgrading to WordPress 3.0.1. This is the error message that I have:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function use_codepress() in /home/simon82/public_html/myblog2day.com/wp-content/themes/thesis_17/lib/admin/admin.php on line 42

Thesis team was releasing the latest Thesis Version 1.8 a couple weeks ago, I’m going to upgrade to Thesis Version 1.8 and see whether it’s capable with WordPress 3.0.1. I’ll keep you guys update. If you’re still in WordPress 3.0 or below, you can now upgrade to WordPress 3.0.1 safely by hitting the “Upgrade” button in your wordpress cpanel.

Thesis Theme is the finest wordpress theme that I’ve seen so far and I’m proud to be one of the Thesis users. You may consider using Thesis Theme for your wordpress blog as well.

Download Thesis Theme Version 1.8

那天风很大。
我一个人走在路上。路旁的树在摇晃，云在漂。
风里的尘埃使命吹过来，我几乎睁不开眼了。
还没来得及回过神来，我的影子不懂什么时候给吹开了，那样子孤零零，扁塌塌的掉了在地上。
我吓了跳，想要把它捡起来。但风实在太大了，连站也不能站得稳当。一下子影子就呼的给吹走了。
它飘飘荡荡的翻过了我住的地方，翻过了山，翻过了海，好像飘了很久，终于来到了影子国。
影子还是第一次来到影子国。那里原来也没有什么不一样。也有树啊，房子啊，山啊，野狗啊。

只不过都是影子。
大家淡淡的走着，沉默着，存在着。
我的影子呆呆的在路旁愣了良久才觉得自己口渴了。
还好我袋子里有些零钱，影子拿了那些淡淡的零钱的影子在一家油站买了可乐。
可乐也是淡淡的，有点索然无味。咕噜咕噜的喝下来，竟然还是会打嗝了。
影子无聊的在油站里的小餐厅坐着。慢慢睡去了。

开始失去影子的那天，我还能感应到它，它在做什么，在想什么。
直到它在油站睡过去后就什么也没感应到了。
我还是上我的班，跑我的步，看我的书。
大家都很忙，路上匆匆忙忙走过的人，公司里瞪着电脑工作的人，回家躲在自己房子里的人。反正也没人发现我的影子不见了。

我偶尔在吃晚餐的时候会挂念它，尤其一个人吃着鱼排的时候低头一看，灯光下的地面光秃秃的。就特别觉得什么东西不见了。
有时候在街上，在餐馆，在公司我会留意看有没别人的影子也不见了呢。

很可惜，暂时还没看到。


备注： 那天买东西的时候，看着店里的电视播着小太阳，有个影子国的故事。很特别呢觉得。
就写了这些。

Li Bingbing on Elle China (August 2010) from YeinJee's Asian Blog

aku rasa hingga kini, pasti ramai yang dah tahu pasal kejadian pesawat airblue yang membawa 152 penumpang yang terhempas di bukit margalla di islamabad rabu lepas. suatu peristiwa yang berlaku di depan mata aku sendiri. mana mungkin aku lupakan kerana kawasan kejadian betul2 berlaku berhampiran dengan pejabat dan rumah aku di islamabad.

kejadian tersebut amat menyedihkan semua warga islamabad, warga pakistan dan warga dunia amnya. pesawat malang airblue yang membawa 152 orang penumpang terhempas ke bukit margalla di pagi 28 julai 2010 tatkala cuaca hujan renyai2 dan berkabus di islamabad.

aku cuba nak mencatatkan sesuatu pada pagi rabu kejadian, namun terasa teramat terkejut, sedih dan tak mampu nak menaip pada masa tersebut. sekarang dah ada kekuataan sedikit. harus rasaya aku coretkan pengalaman aku menyaksikan sendiri dan mendengar pesawat malang itu melanggar bukit margalla pada pagi tersebut.

- – - – - – - -  – -

pada pagi rabu tersebut aku sampai awal ke pejabat. memang selalunya aku sampai awal pun. waktu bekerja adalah pada jam 9 pagi dan kebiasannya aku akan sampai 1/2 jam daripada biasa. pagi tersebut aku sampai pada 8.30 pagi. macam biasa setelah pemanduku meninggalkan aku di kaki lima bangunan razia sharif plaza, aku akan menapak ke lif utama. sempat juga aku menoleh ke langit yang mendung. hujan masih lagi renyai-renyai tatkala aku melangkah. titisan air hujan membasahi baju dan beg laptopku.

cuaca pagi tersebut memang kelam dan kelabu. tidak aku sangkakan yang pagi tersebut akan mengundang tragedi penerbangan paling dahsyat dalam sejarah penerbangan di pakistan. hidup di bumi asing islamabad memang berwarna warni. tidak cukup dengan kejadian bom dan bencana alam, aku dikejutkan dengan berita kapalterbang terhempas pagi tersebut

aku melangkah ke pejabat macam biasa. jam sudah menunjukkan pada pukul 8.50 pagi. pekerja ku macam biasa menyediakan teh hijau dengan elaichi dan madu. memang menjadi kebiasaan di islamabad anda akan dihidangkan teh hijau dengan elaichi, bahan masakan utama di dalam nasi briyani. aku meneguk teh panas sambil menelek skrin komputer riba. beberapa email di balas dan di baca pada pagi tersebut.

tepat pada jam 9 pagi aku memanggil salah seorang anak buahku untuk berbincang masalah kerja. kami akan ke lahore untuk urusan rasmi esoknya (khamis) dan beberapa dokumen penting perlu disediakan pagi tersebut. perbincangan adakalanya serius dan ada kalanya agak santai. ketika perbincangan berjalan, kami terdengat bunyi pesawat melalui ruang udara pejabat kami. dek kerana sudah biasa dengan bunyi pesawat dan helikopter berlegar-legar di atas pejabat, aku buat tak endah sahaja pada pagi tersebut. tidak pernah terlintas di hatiku yang melintas itu adalah pesawat komersil. kalau pesawat tentera memang sudah biasa berlegar-legar di atas tu.

kebiasannya juga aku akan membuka blind di belakang kerusiku untuk aku melihat pemandangan bukit margalla yang indah. namun pada pagi tersebut aku tutup blind tersebut. tiada pemandangan bukit margalla pada pagi tersebut. jika ditakdirkan aku membuka blind tersebut, nescaya anak buahku akan dapat menyaksikan pesawat malang tersebut menembusi kabus tebal di bukit margalla secara live di depan mata. namun blind tersebut ditutup pada pagi tersebut.

selang beberapa minit, pejabatku kecoh dengan peristiwa pesawat menuju ke bukit margalla dan terhempas di sana. aku segera membuka blind dan tercari-cari lokasi sebenar pesawat malang tersebut. namun gagal. hanya kabus tebal sahaja yang menutupi bukit margalla. namun dengan kuasa Allah, secara tiba-tiba kabus tebal tadi sedikit demi sedikit naik ke atas dan terjelmalah kehijauan bukit margalla di depan mata.

kabus yang bercampur dengan asap menyukarkan kami untuk meneliti dan mempastikan lokasi kejadian malang tersebut. namun tuhan maha kuasa. setelah kabus hilang kami nampak asap berkepul-kepul di depan mata. sahlah itulah tempat kejadian pesawat malan itu terhempas. selang beberapa minit kemudian terdengar bunyi helikopter tentera menuju ke aras tempat kejadian. dua helikopter menyusul ke tempat kejadian. mata aku masih tidak berkelip menyaksikan asap di bukit margalla. macam tidak percaya yang pesawat airblue baru sahaja terhempas di depan mata aku.

suasana masih lagi hujan renyai-renyai dan berkabus sedikit. ketika ini berita tentang pesawat terhempas itu telah memenuhi ruang lingkup internet dan channel news 24/7 telah berkali-kali menayangkan akan berita terkini atau breaking news ini. suasana di pejabat telah hingar bingar. masing-masing agak terkejut dengan berita tragis di pagi tersebut. cepat-cepat aku memberitahu kepada semua anak buahku di pejabat untuk mempastikan tiada kenalan atau keluarga mereka yang terlibat.

pesawar airbus airblue tersebut dalam perjalanan dari turki ke islamabad melalui karachi. dengan 152 penumpang dan anak kapal, pesawat malang tersebut telah merempuh kaki bukit margalla dan terhempas. mata kami tidak berkelip menyaksikan channel express 24/7 menayangkan tempat kejadian yang kelihatan hitam dan hanya kelihatan bangkai-bangkai pesawat sahaja.

bukit margalla ada kawasan bukit (bukan gunung) yang dipenuhi dengan pokok-pokok renek dan tidak tinggi. di bukit margalla terdapat daman-e-koh dan pir-sohawa. dua tempat yang terkenal di islamabad. aku juga telah berkali menjengah ke kedua-dua tempat ini. mana mungkin aku dapat lupakan kejadian malang ini kerana ianya betul-betul dekat dengan kami di islamabad.

di daman-e koh anda dapat melihat pemandangan seluruh islamabad. ketika anda memandu untuk ke daman-e koh, pastinya akan melalui jalanraya ke aras bukit dan pastinya akan dapat melihat kawasang tragedi pesawat malang tersebut. atas sedikit daripada daman-e koh adalah pir sohawa. kawasan yang terkenal dengan restauran monal. seringkali juga aku makan-makan di sana. roti naan cheese nya agak sedap. chicken tikka juga fresh dan paling tidak dapat dilupakan ialan chicken karahi yang lazat di sana. oh pir sohawa!

kini bukit margalla amat terkenal di seluruh dunia, bukan sahaja kerana terdapatnya daman-e koh dan pir sohawa. tetapi juga kerana kejadian pesawat airbus airblue malang yang terhempas di sana. kejadian sedih pada pagi tersebut telah mengorbankan kesemua anak kapal dan penumpang di dalamnya. tiada seorang pun yang selamat semasa kejadian. suatu sejarah hitam yang paling pahit untuk dikenang selama-lamanya di dalam sejarah penerbangan di pakistan, dan dunia amnya. aku juga terkesan dengan kejadian ini kerana ianya berlaku di depan mata dan aku masih boleh terngiang-ngiang lagi bunyi pesawat penumpang itu terbang di atas pejabatku sebelum merempuh bukit margalla.

beberapa pekerja ku yang berada di atas bumbung pejabat juga menceritakan yang mereka nampak pesawat penumpang airblue melintasi ruang udara pejabat. dengan landing gear masih terpasang. pekerjaku boleh melihat penumpang melalui tingkap pesawat. anda pasti boleh bayangkan betapa rendahnya pesawat tersebut terbang pada pagi tersebut. selepas hilang daripada pandangan, pesawat tersebut terus membelah kabus tebas dan seterusnya merempuhi bukit margalla.

hanya tuhan sahaja yang tahu betapa peritnya mangsa-mangsa kejadian ketika itu. bagi aku, tak dapat aku bayangkan sekiranya tubuhku yang berada di dalam pesawat malang tersebut. aku yakin penumpang di dalam pesawat airblue tersebut pasti dapat melihat dengan jelas masjid faisal, masjid terbesar di pakistan di sebelah kiri mereka. dan bagi yang familiar dengan bandar islamabad, pastilah tahu yang di depan mereka adalah bukit margalla. alhamdulillah aku masih selamat di bumi asing pakistan sehinggalah pada masa catatan ini diposkan.

- – - – - – - – - -

pekerjaan ku di bumi islamabad ini memerlukan aku untuk menaiki pesawat samada domestik mahupun antarabangsa di sini. mana mungkin aku akan melalui jalan darat sepanjang masa. this land is too big to travel by land. mahu tidak mahu aku terpaksa juga menaiki pesawat. samada mahu ke karachi atau lahore. mahupun mahu pulang ke malaysia. hanya doa sahaja yang boleh dipanjatkan tatkala berada di dalam mana-mana pesawat semasa landing dan take-off. itu sahaja yang termampu dilakukan. yang lainnya kita akan berserah kepada yang maha kuasa menentukannya.

setiap kali berada di lapangan terbang di sini, tidak kiralah di mana hatta di islamabad, karachi mahupun lahore, aku pasti akan memandang keadaan sekeliling. airport di sini bukan airport biasa. kawalan keselamatan agak ketat di sini. airport adalah benteng terakhir. jika berlaku apa-apa di airport, musnahlah harapan untuk keluar dari bumi pakistan ini. perasaan memang bercampur baur setiap kali menaiki pesawat domestik di sini. malah untuk pengetahuan anda, aku sepatutnya menaiki pesawat PIA ke karachi pada pagi rabu malang tersebut. kebiasaannya aku akan ke karachi pada penerbangan PIA jam 2 petang. aku pasti kalau aku ditakdirkan ke karachi, semasa kejadian aku akan berada di boarding area menunggu pengumuman untuk menaiki pesawat. pasti suasana kalut di lapangan terbang lagi merungsingkan jiwa tatkala mendengar berita cemas, sedih dah hiba seperti ini.

namun alhamdulillah, nyawa masih panjang. aku masih di sini. aku telah batalkan niat untuk ke karachi pada rabu lepas kerana belum bersedia untuk discussion di karachi dengan sebuah syarikat multinasional di sana.

banyak sebenarnya persoalan yang tidak terjawab sehingga ke hari ini

mengapa pesawat malang itu terbang dengan rendah sekali ? kawasan pejabat aku dan rumah adalah kawasan red zone dan no-fly zone. mana mungkin pesawat komersil menerjah awan di atas kami. kebiasaannya memang terdengat pesawat dan helikopter di atas rumah dan pejabat, namu biasanya ianya ialah pesawat tentera sahaja. namun ianya telah berlaku. dan berlaku di depan mataku sendiri.

semalam berita di pakistan di news channel express 24/7 menayangkan rakaman perbualan di antara control tower lapangan terbang benazri bhutto di islamabad dan pilot pesawat malang tersebut

control tower – “you’re out of the runaway”

control tower – “turn left, youre’ heading to margalla hill”

pilot – ” yes, we’re seeing it”

itulah kata-kata terakhir yang sempat diungkapkan. mungkin selepas itulah hanyalah sejarah hitam yang telah diketahui oleh sesiapa. pesawat malang ini terhempas merempuhi bukit margalla. kejadian sekaligus mengorbankan kesemua penumpang dan anak kapal. tragedi yang akan diingati sampai bila-bila.

The flight left Karachi at 07:50 local time (01:50 UTC).^[1] Initial reports suggested that flight controllers at Benazir Bhutto International Airport lost contact with the aircraft at 09:43 local time (03:43 UTC) ^[5] after they delayed its landing 13 minutes earlier.^[3] It was reported that the poor weather had forced controllers to divert another aircraft attempting to land 30 minutes before the crash.^[13]

While the BBC reported that officials stated that “there was nothing in conversations between the pilot and the Islamabad control tower that suggests anything was wrong”,^[1] The New York Times gave an account of communications between the aircraft and the ground that indicated otherwise. The newspaper claimed that the pilots were warned that they were flying away from the runway, to which the pilot responded “I can see the runway”.^[13] The controller then told the flight crew to “immediately turn left, Margalla [Hills] are ahead”, before the pilot again replied “we can see it”.^[13] An airline official stated that the pilots did not send any emergency signals prior to the crash.^[14] Pakistani Interior Minister Rehman Malik stated that the plane was at 2,600 feet as it approached Islamabad but went back up to 3,000 feet before eventually crashing.^[15]

setiap kali pesawat thai airways landing di lapangan terbang islamabad, aku akan melihat dengan tekun di tingkap pesawat. dek kerana dah banyak kali landing dan take-off di sana, aku boleh mengecam kesemua objek di mukabumi. kejadian pesawat airblue ini pasti akan memberi kesan kepada kami di sini. things will never be the same again after this. fobia pasti akan terasa dan sedikit takut, tidak seperti sebelumnya. namun apakan daya, hidup mesti diteruskan jua.

kini telah tiga hari kejadian tragedi malang ini berlaku. setiap kali aku membuka tirai di belakang kerusi dan melihat bukit margalla, pasti aku akan terkenang akan peristiwa tersebut. ianya boleh berlaku kepada sesiapapun. kesan hitam terbakar masih lagi kelihatan di margalla hills di sana.tragedi hitam ini akan dikenang sampai bila-bila. setiap kali aku ke pir sohawa untuk menikmati juadah di restoran monal mahupun bersiar-siar di daman-e koh menikmati pemandangan bumi islamabad, pasti aku akan terkenang akan tragedi pagi rabu hujan renyai-renyai ini.

catatan ini akan berguna untuk generasi masa hadapan dan sebagai kenangan aku di bumi islamabad.

semoga bermanfaat. amin.

Al-Fatihah untuk mangsa-mangsa pesawat malang airbus airblue tersebut. salam takziah buat keluarga mangsa. pakistan berkabung selama satu hari semalam. monsun teruk semalam seolah-olah menangisi pemergian mangsa-mangsa kejadian. hujan turun dengan lebat semalam sehingga berlaku banjir di bumi islamabad, rawalpindi dan di pakistan. 150 mangsa banjir setakat ini.

Chinese movie trailer for Love in Disguise, starring Wang Leehom, Liu Yifei and Joan Chen. The film is Wang’s directorial debut and Liu’s first movie since her act in Hollywood production Forbidden Kingdom…

Old school romance-comedy where a pop star is disguising himself to win a girl’s heart. Despite Wang’s years of acting experience he has never convinced me as an actor… doubt that it’s going to change anytime soon.

Love in Disguise (2010) movie trailer from YeinJee's Asian Blog

We have raised enough money for my surgery on 3rd August 2010. But not only that. We also raised extras to pay off my debt. You see, I stayed in the ICU for an additional three days last December after a critical brain surgery.

I owe them USD4,500.00 because of this.

But instead of charging me the ICU rate, St. Vincents gave me a discount by charging me the ward rate for those additional days. They reminded me of the payment for half a year before a collection agency took over in June 2010.

After receiving the agency’s letter, I e-mailed them to say that I will be having surgery again on 3rd August 2010 and explained how I fund my surgeries, and I asked if I may pay the debt together with my next surgery payment. The agency then asked St. Vincents that said it is absolutely alright!

But I didn’t include the USD4,500 into my fundraising target. If I did, the funds needed would have been more than RM100,000.00. I was concerned that a six figure target will hamper support to the cause. So I merely aimed to raise just enough for this surgery.

I told God about the debt and how I wished to pay the hospital as soon as possible. St. Vincent Medical Center is very kind. They still allow me to have surgery there despite the outstanding bill. They are a charitable organization that raise funds to subsidize the cost of our treatments there. Hospital charges for my surgery is after a 70% discount. So if I pay them back soon, they can use the money to help more patients.

When my news first came out in The Star on Wednesday, I still have not raised enough funds for the next surgery, let alone pay off the debt. Then, it so happened that mom forgot to pay my internet which was suspended since Thursday morning. I wasn’t able to monitor the fundraising progress since then so I went to collect our air tickets from MAS.

We received many concerned phonecalls, SMSes, e-mails and Facebook messages. People who met me, people who have heard of me, people who read about me from somewhere, people who read my blog all got in touch with us. No one questioned my authenticity or my decision to have surgery in America. Everyone said they will donate.

By the time I visited Maybank on Friday morning, I found that we have raised enough funds for surgery, able to pay off my debt, and still have RM10,000 to keep in case of emergency.

And how we managed to get my plight highlighted on National news in The Star newspaper last minute is another story worth telling someday.

Because of my family background and how I grew up, I must always think ahead and worry about tomorrow. But a friend once assured me not to worry so much. When I need help, people will be there to help me. I couldn’t believe him and insisted to always do what I can to raise funds no matter rain or shine.

Now God has shown me that there is some truth in my friend’s words. From this episode, I realized how much it means to Malaysians that I survive. The public contacted and talked to us like we have known for years!

I have so much to thank Malaysians all over the world.

Dari Malaysiakini

Beberapa peguam berpandangan imej Jabatan peguam Negara tercemar ekoran dakwaanya bahawa seorang anggota pasukan pendakwaan terlibat dalam hubungan romantis dengan Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan.

Bagaimanapun sebahagian lagi berpandangan peranan timbalan pendakwa raya (DPP) dalam kes tersebut hanyalah kecil kerana mereka hanya mengambil nota semasa perbicaraan.

Baljit Singh Sidhu (kiri) berpendapat dakwaan itu benar-benar menggoncang jabatan tersebut secara serius.

“Tuduhan itu serius dan tak nampak baik untuk pendakwaan. Ia mengarah kepada isu integriti pasukan pendakwaan,” katanya ketika ditemui.

“Sekiranya dakwaan itu benar, ia menunjukkan bahawa DPP tidak bertika dan tidak profesional kerana mempunyai hubungan dengan pengadu.

Baljit yang juga seorang pensyarah berkata, peranan DPP berkenaan Farah Azlina Latif adalah kecil bukan satu isu.

“Fakta bahawa beliau sebahagian daripada pasukan pendakwaan kekal dan ia tidak sepatutnya berlaku,” tambahnya.

Baljit bagaimanapun memuji tindakan Peguam Negara Abdul Gani Patail yang mengeluarkan daripada pasukan pendakwaan terhadap kers Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim bagi mengelakkan tanggapan negatif.

Bagaimanapun seorang peguam kanan yang mahu namanya dirahsiakan sambil ketawa berkata, perkara ini hanya boleh terjadi di Malaysia.

That being said, it’s hard for you to outrank your competition as well because everyone is doing the same thing. In this case, you can’t just keep building backlinks for your site, but now you need some effective methods and strategies for your link building campaign. What you need now is only high quality backlinks instead of building junk backlinks blindly.

Why People Want To Rank Well In Search Engine?

Even one day you rank at the first spot for a profitable keyword and that’s your targeted keyword, your ranking won’t be last longer at the first spot because your competition is trying to outrank you on the next minute. Why they want to rank well in the search engine? They might have a product that they’re trying to sell off and make money, or they’re trying to drive organic traffic to their site and make money with Google Adsense or affiliate program. Anyway, they just want to outrank you. In return, if you have a product and you want to sell it to make some money, you might want to outrank your competition as well.

These days, most of the internet marketer use sponsored review to promote their site and product. Sponsored review is that an internet marketer purchases a review from a blogger, the blogger will review the site or product and write a review article on his blog to create buzz and drive traffic to the landing page or site. Besides of creating buzz and drive traffic to the landing pages, they want to build high quality backlinks for the landing page and hopefully the site could ranks well in the search engine for the targeted keyword. Eventually, the site becomes auto-money-generator. That being said, the site generates sales from organic traffic from search engine with low or no maintenance, that’s what every internet marketer’s dream.

Sponsored review would definitely help the internet marketer in term of building backlinks and driving traffic to the landing page of a product, but it might not help if the quality of the blog that reviews the site is low. Even you want to use sponsored review to promote your product, you have to choose a high quality blog to review your product. Otherwise, you may waste your money, or it will ruin your product in serious case.

If you have a product, I’m pretty sure that you want your product to be reviewed in a high quality blog in term of traffic and pagerank.

A few weeks ago I was contacted by Huey Ching, also a Malaysian in Japan (and a composer), proposing a collaboration. An experimental festival for live performances and all sorts of music project's coming up soon in Tokyo, she intended to merge her own music performance with videos.

I was in the middle of writing the treatment for my feature-length film, and had been feeling increasingly depressed over the lack of filmmaking endeavours I've been involved in (last time I shot a film was in March for my soon-to-be-released short, INHALATION), so I met up with her. After a brief brainstorming session in a nice Shinjuku cafe, we agreed to make her performance a combination of music, visuals (courtesy of my videos) and poetry.

It was a matter of finding the right poetry. That night I chanced upon the poems of Phyllis Lin Huiyin (1904-1955), the first female architect in Modern China, and writer.



It was entirely by coincidence. We were originally considering the poems of the famous Chinese poet, Xu Zhimo (four years ago I pointed out the uncanny resemblance between Xu Zhimo and my friend Alex Yuen). Lin Huiyin is remembered mostly by the masses as Xu Zhimo's object of (probably unrequited) love thanks to the many dramatized portrayals of their relationship in films and TV dramas. (by the way, Zhang Ziyi's gonna play Lin Huiyin in an upcoming biopic), some even said that Xu Zhimo's fatal plane crash occurred when he was on his way to a talk that Lin Huiyin was giving.

While finding the right Xu Zhimo poems, I stumbled upon Lin Huiyin's on the same Chinese website, and I liked it quite a lot. I tried my best to find English translations of her works but my efforts were in vain, so I decided to pick a few, showed it to Huey Ching and proceeded to do the translations myself.

... the following were my attempts at two poems.

记忆

断续的曲子，最美或最温柔的
夜，带着一天的星。
记忆的梗上，谁不有
两三朵娉婷，披着情绪的花
无名的展开
野荷的香馥，
每一瓣静处的月明。

湖上风吹过，头发乱了，或是
水面皱起象鱼鳞的锦。
四面里的辽阔，如同梦
荡漾着中心彷徨的过往
不着痕迹，谁都
认识那图画，
沉在水底记忆的倒影！


MEMORY

A broken melody, the most beautiful and gentle night,
a sky full of stars.
resting upon a branch of memories,
the women of flowers, petals of emotions,
blossoming namelessly.
a wild scent,
spreading throughout the moonlight

Wind blew over the lake, hair swaying,
Rippling surface seem like fish-like scales
the vastness of its surroundings, like a dream
the ripple of my storm-filled heart
A recognizable picture,
A reflection submerged deep within the water of memories

无题

什么时候再能有
那一片静；
溶溶在春风中立着，
面对着山，面对着小河流？

什么时候还能那样
满掬着希望；
披拂新绿，耳语似的诗思，
登上城楼，更听那一声钟响？

什么时候，又什么时候，心
才真能懂得
这时间的距离；山河的年岁；
昨天的静，钟声
昨天的人
怎样又在今天里划下一道影！

UNTITLED
When again will it be
that veil of silence.
melting in the spring breeze.
as it faces the mountain and flowing stream?

When again can I still
cling on to hope,
the swaying grass, a whisper in my thought
ascending that building, hearing the ringing bells?

When? Wither in time
will the heart know
the distance of time, the lifespan of mountains and rivers,
yesterday's silence, the sound of bell ringing,
how can a person of yesterday,
cast a shadow over today?

I then proceeded to prepare for a video shoot. All kinds of possibilities were floating about. Make a narrative short? Make a music video? Then I started pondering the locations. Odds were stacked against me because the lab is now short on resources, and I've long lost a producer to put something like this together for me since Maiko left. I started making phone calls, asking for help, trying to find a Chinese actress who could read the poems of Lin Huiyin. At such a short notice, it was difficult to get anyone.

I worried a little, time was running out (I'm flying back to Malaysia on the 5th of August and I want to get this done before I leave). I listened to Huey Ching's compositions again and it started to dawn upon me that I may have been taking the wrong approach with the project. So used to conventional filmmaking and narratives that I was preparing for what I usually do, when this could've been done in a very different manner, I wasn't supposed to be making a FILM, but something more of an experimental nature, a video installation.

I suddenly thought of Andy Warhol, and remembered his Screen Tests. They were basically a series of silent film portraits. Sounded like a fun thing to try, and seemingly easier to attempt too. I would merge poems with video portraits. The actress wouldn't have to spend that much time for the shoot, just a few minutes before my camera, doing whatever she felt like, and voila! I also prepared some food on the table in case she wanted her portrait to be of her eating.

So I managed to secure the help of Tao Sha, a friend of a friend who is a model and actress. She's from China. I was relieved that she was willing to help. All I needed was for her to stay in front of the camera, and after that, let me do a recording of her poem recital, and I'll be done.

Yesterday was the shoot, I managed to have her around for half an hour. Mahmoud was helping with the cinematography. He also brought his Harinezumi camera along (a digital camera that shoots Super 8-like footage)








She opted to eat potato chips for her first take, which you can see from the first photo of this entry.

Once she was gone, and also after I got myself a few more subjects for this fun little experiment, I started editing a rough cut for Huey Ching. Got it done at 4 this morning.

Perhaps you'll hear more of this project soon.

For me, it was fun to be in a shoot again.

The controversial sodomy trial of Anwar Ibrahim, Malaysia’s charismatic opposition leader, is due to resume in the Kuala Lumpur High Court on 2 August.

Observers and leaders around the world concur with Anwar’s claim that the charge against him is baseless and politically motivated, but the authorities seem determined to proceed with it.

The trial looks set to be a replay of the shameful trials he went through in 1998-99, which were universally condemned and resulted in a lengthy prison sentence, much of it spent in solitary confinement. Already a number of unfair rulings have been made, making it very difficult for his lawyers to mount an effective defence. Both the chief of police and the Attorney General, personally involved in this high-profile sequel, had earlier been shown to have played a role in fabricating evidence for Anwar’s ’98-99 trials.

In recent days, yet another scandal has emerged: renowned blogger Raja Petra Kamaruddin revealed that one of the Federal Counsel team was having an affair with Saiful, Anwar’s accuser and the main prosecution witness. She was swiftly removed from the line-up.

This new trial should be viewed as part of a wider, concerted attack launched against Anwar and political leaders close to him, which has gained considerable momentum over the last year. These include frequent blackening of his name in the mainstream media (almost exclusively owned or controlled by the ruling party), as well as determined efforts to bring about the collapse of the opposition-controlled state governments – especially Selangor, which is both the richest state and the flagship of Anwar’s party – by means of both political and judicial manipulation.

During the last month, renewal of the publishing permit for the official organs of all three of the main opposition parties was either denied or delayed. The PAS newspaper, Harakah, has now had its permit renewed but with stifling distribution conditions attached.

The trial is scheduled to continue until the end of the month.

Jika benar Tun Dr Ling Liong Sik menipu kerajaan Malaysia seperti tuduhan ke atasnya di Mahkamah Sesyen Putrajaya semalam, bagaimanakah mereka yang ditipu masih kekal dalam jemaah menteri hingga sekarang.

Ketika mempersoalkan perkara itu, Naib Presiden PAS, Datuk Mahfuz Omar berkata, jika benar penipuan itu berlaku, mereka yang ditipu sehingga dua kali dalam tempoh tidak sampai dua bulan hilang kelayakan sebagai anggota jemaah menteri termasuk Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Razak dan timbalannya, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

Ling yang juga bekas Menteri Pengangkutan menghadapi tuduhan menipu kerajaan sekitar 25 September 2002 dan 6 November 2002 dengan memperdayakan jemaah menteri untuk memberikan persetujuan pembelian tanah di Pulau Indah untuk projek Mega Distribution Hub di Pelabuhan Klang.

Perdana Menteri, timbalannya dan sebahagian anggota kabinet kini adalah anggota kabinet pada masa penipuan itu didakwa berlaku.

“Persoalannya ialah bagaimana sebahagian yang kena tipu masih kekal dalam jemaah menteri hingga sekarang dan menjawat jawatan yang lebih besar iaitu Perdana Menteri dan Timbalan Perdana Menteri dan ramai lagi anggota jemaah menteri pada 2002 yang turut kena tipu masih kekal dalam kabinet kerajaan Umno Barisan Nasional (BN),” kata Ahli Parlimen Pokok Sena itu.

Jika tuduhan ke atas Ling benar, Mahfuz menyifatkan perkara itu sangat memalukan kerana perkara itu menunjukkan dalam kabinet kerajaan BN ada penipu dan ada yang kena tipu sehingga mengakibatkan kerugian yang sangat besar kepada negara dan rakyat.

“Yang menipu sudah tentu jahat dan bijak. Yang kena tipu pula sudah tentu lemah dan bangang.

“Yang tipu tak beramanah sementara yang kena tipu pun sama tak beramanah dan pak angguk dalam mesyuarat jemaah menteri.

“Apalah malang rakyat Malaysia diperintah oleh kerajaan Umno BN yang anggota jemaah menterinya orang yang bodoh bangang dan mudah ditipu sebanyak dua kali dalam tempoh tak sampai dua bulan,” kata Mahfuz.

Malaysia, katanya, tidak akan maju jika jemaah menteri dari kalangan penipu dan menteri yang mudah ditipu terus berkuasa.

Sambil menyatakan BN boleh dibaca sebagai “Bohong Negara,” Mahfuz menyeru rakyat supaya “menyelamatkan Malaysia daripada penipu negara”.

Seorang lagi Naib Presiden PAS, Salahuddin Ayub berharap semua anggota kabinet yang didakwa telah ditipu oleh Liong Sik turut sama dipertanggungjawabkan atas apa yang berlaku itu.

Menurut Ahli Parlimen Kubang Kerian itu, anggota kabinet bukan anggota pasukan bola sepak amatur.

Jika pasukan bola sepak amatur ditipu, katanya, ia masih boleh dimaafkan.

Tetapi, kata Salahuddin, anggota kabinet memegang jawatan berprofil tinggi yang memberikan kesan amat besar kepada kepentingan dan harta negara.

“Apabila mereka ditipu sehingga dua kali dalam tempoh tidak sampai dua bulan, ia merupakan condict unbecoming kerana mereka sebenarnya melakukan act of negligence yang didefinisikan sebagai the failure to use ordinary care.

“Sebab itulah kesemua anggota kabinet yang didakwa telah ditipu itu mesti bertanggungjawab dan dipertanggungjawabkan kerana kerugian yang telah ditanggung oleh negara berhubung perkara itu ternyata amat besar,” katanya.

Beliau juga tidak mahu menolak spekulasi yang mendakwa tuduhan terhadap Ling itu sebenarnya adalah sindiran pentadbiran Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak terhadap Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

Dr Mahathir Perdana Menteri ketika penipuan itu didakwa berlaku.

“Beberapa pihak telah mula mendakwa dan membuat spekulasi bahawa apa yang berlaku itu sebenarnya ialah ‘dakwa Ling, sindir Mahathir’.

“Susah juga untuk terus menolak spekulasi itu,” katanya.

Pemimpin-pemimpin Pakatan Rakyat hari ini menyelar tindakan kerajaan meluluskan satu lagi pembayaran berjumlah RM372 juta bersabit projek Zon Bebas Pelabuhan Kelang , (PKFZ) yang setakat ini menelan belanja lebih RM6billion wang rakyat tanpa pulangan nyata.

Kementerian Pengangkuatan mengarahkan Lembaga Pelabuahan Kelang supaya meluluskan pembayaran RM222.58 juta kepada kepada syarikat tujuan khas Free Zone Capital Bhd dan RM150 juta kepada Special Port Vehicle sebelum Ahad ini. .

Pembayaran itu dikatakan adalah untuk pemegang bon yang diterbitkan oleh kontraktor utama PKFZ Kuala Dimensi Sdn Bhd KDSB.

Sejak projek itu dilancarkan, kerajaan menerusi Kementerian Pengangkutan telah meluluskan pelbagai pembayaran kepada KDSB selain memberi surat sokongan untuk syarikat itu mendapatkan pinjaman bank dan menerbitkan bon.

Kementerian Pengangkutan secara trdisi di terajui oleh pimpinan MCA yang dituduh bersekongkol dengan Umno untuk membuat pembayaran-pembayaran lumayan kepada KDSB.

Pembayaran terbaru lebih RM222 juta diluluskan kepada FZCB atas keperluan membayar kepada pemegang bon projek itu, namun alasan itu ditolak sebagai tidak logik dan rapuh oleh pemimpin-pemimpin Pakatan Rakyat.

Mereka menegaskan LPK dan kerajaan harus menunggu keputusan mahkamah berhubung kes tuntutan-tuntutan mencurigakan yang dibuat oleh KDSB sebelum meluluskan sebaran bayaran lanjut.

“Tidak ada keperluan langsung untuk kerajaan ataupun LPK membayar apa-apa kepada pemegang bon. Sebarang bayaran harus di buat oleh KDSB sendiri,” kata Tony Pua, seorang pakar ekonomi dan Ahli Parlimen PJ Utara dari DAP.

“Dengan meluluskan pembayaran ini, kerajaan secara langsung menyelamatkan kroni-kroni disebalik skandal PKFZ,” tegas beliau.

Ahli Parlimen Kuala Selangor Dr Dzulkifli Ahmad berkata Menteri Pengangkutan sekali lagi cuai menggunakan kuasa untuk mengarahkan LPK membayar RM372 juta kepada syarikat milik KDSB.

“Semua pembayaran seharusnya telah dibekukan sehingga hasil siasatan terhadap skandal itu diketahui oleh umum,” tegas beliau.

Dr Dzulkifli bersetuju bahawa LPK tidak perlu membuat sebarang bayaran kepada KDSB sehingga pertikaian di mahkamah selesai.

Bekas Menteri Penangkuatan Ong Tee Keat membayangkan rasa terkejut dengan keputusan kerajaan untuk membuat satu lagi pembayaran lumayah kepada syarikat milik kepentingan KDSB.

“Kerajaan seharusnya bertanya kepada LPK kenapa ia menangguhkan pembayaran,’ dan bukan berkeras meluluskan pembayaran itu,” Tee Keat dipetik berkata oleh portal Malaysian Insider.

If you’re an online publisher, then Google is king.  Whatever content you’re pushing to the web, you’re going to want Google to index it properly, and serve it up in its search results.  There are lots of guides on basic text and blogpost optimization out there, but what about other types of media like images, video, and audio?  Here’s a simple guide to follow so you can make the most of your multimedia content.

First things first, the general rule of optimization is to ensure a descriptive file name and URL which match what people may be searching for.  This is crucial when it comes to Google deciding if your content is relevant to search terms.  If you want to refine it, you can try using the Google keywords tool to determine search volume. 

Tip 1. How to Optimize SEO for images

Tagging of images is essential for Google’s understanding of what your image actually is.  Pay close attention to your ALT and TITLE tags when you upload an image to the web.

1. ALT attribute is an important part of search engine optimization. It describes your image to search engine and when a user searches for a certain image this is a key determining factor for a match. 
2. TITLE attribute plays a lesser role but is important for visitors as this text will automatically appear in the tooltip when mouse is over the image.

If you’re using WordPress, you can try SEO Friendly Images, which is a free optimization plugin that automatically updates all images on your website with proper ALT and TITLE attributes.  What this plugin does is, it changes these tags based on your image file name and your post URL.  This is a quick one click solution helps optimize all your images at once.

Tip 2. How to Optimize SEO for videos

Sitemaps are Google’s way of understanding and indexing your videos.  Check out this video for a bit more detail on this.

To get more tips on submission of setting up an mRSS feed so you can automatically submit sitemaps of your videos in the correct format, you should visit Google’s Video sitemaps page.

Tip 3: How to Optimize SEO for Audio

1. Text Transcripts: There are several ways to optimize for audio, but the best way is to have actual transcripts of your audio on your web page.   No matter how much you optimize, having plain text is always more Google friendly.  Consider recording in conjunction with speech to text software if it’s more efficient.
2. Descriptive Metadata: Changing your ID3 tags to give really descriptive titles and comments which are embedded within the file.  If you’re changing a few files you can simply right click the file in Windows, then go to properties, then summary.  From there you can edit all the attributes of the file.  If you’re handling this for multiple files you may want to use freeware like ID3 Tagit to help you along.

Do you optimize your content on your website of blog?  Tell us about it in the comments :)

OK so we got back to Hongkong at about 5pm and we rushed to Tsim Tsa Tsui for the New Year Parade which was about to take place 2 hours later.

Most of the roads in the city was closed down for this event.

Stood there for about 1hour + and it still hasnt started. The roads were already filled with humans..

Camho time! Widelens rocks.

As the parade was about to start, the crew were walking around giving out these famous ‘lou poh’ biscuits. Damn nice! Especially when we were really hungry

The event finally started. TVB artiste started appearing and gingerman made its appearance.

More fluffy balloon characters appeared.

We were too hungry we couldnt stand it anymore. Skipped the parade and went for dinner instead. Haha.. so that concludes my 2nd day in HK during CNY.

Algadon – Fantasy RPG – Overview In this Algadon web based multi-player fantasy role playing game, you can be a dragon, elf, sorcerer, archer, assassin, barbarian, etc and get to perform quests to gain exp to level, fight other players, place or collect bounties, buy items, etc. You can play Algadon at MySpace as well.

Algadon – Introduction
Since Algadon is a browser based game, you can play it using web browsers such as Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome or Internet Explorer. You can also play Algadon on your mobile phones, particularly Android and Iphone.

Game play at MySpace appears to be more fast paced as compared against the original at the official website. More fast paced as in your character levels up much more quickly in the MySpace version.

Like any other role playing games, in Algadon you start the game by choosing a race / class then off you go to performing quests to earn experience points to level up and gold in order to buy and equip yourself with more powerful weapons, armor, etc. It would not be called a multi-player game if you cannot interact with other players so yeah, you fight other players too. If you want to, you can also group up with like minded players by joining clans as the saying goes, there is strength in numbers.

Algadon – Benefits
So what are the benefits of playing Algadon?

4. Some premium races / classes are available for those who wanna pay.
5. It has quite a lot of active players playing the game!

Algadon – Official Website!

Game play in the official Algadon website is much slower compared to the MySpace version. Good choice for players who prefers to level up slowly over a period of time and not too fast, like being rushed by a tour guide in some tour group.

Algadon – MySpace!

The MySpace version appears to have brighter colors and fancier graphics plus much more fast paced game play to boot. Good for players who prefer to level up as fast as possible and as high as possible.

Algadon – Map!

You start off in Brooksle and can visit other places when your level is high enough.

Deimos’s Thoughts
Nice graphics for a web based game, particularly the MySpace version. Simple controls and game play. Just point and click with the mouse and follow the on screen instructions.

Do you like to play web based role play games? Yes? No? Why?

Time to re-think before reply

The good thing I find being a freelancer at home is, I can rant first then reply. As a contractor, I need to reply in real-time, no hassle. I find myself stuck in the middle of conversation sometimes. Maybe I’m just a slow in replying.

Sitting is better than standing

When the project is over 70%, it became critical. I spent a few days, from morning to evening, watching over the site while I was a contractor. Details are all over the place and I have to find out where. While working from home, with a screen, I’ll just sit there and look around the monitor, at best 20 inches wide.

Inch, foot, mm and pixel

It’s all about the right length and right size. I’ve been greatly dealing with inch, foot and mm again. Sometimes it is inch, sometimes it become foot and sometimes, even mm. Count and keep counting on the site. I still prefer web version of length – Pixel.

Lastly, I notice, I don’t like people, I like machine more. I need dual diagnosis to rehab and have a treatment at the same time. Time to adjust back…

Malaysiakini Former transport minister Ling Liong Sik was today charged at the Kajang Sessions Court over his involvement in the multi-billion ringgit Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) scandal.

Saya ditanya oleh pihak media mengapalah FDI begitu penting sangat untuk Malaysia dalam situasi kini, sejurus selepas penglibatan saya dalam Forum Ekonomi Negeri Selangor sempena Majlis Dialog Bejt 2011. Saya cuba rumuskan di sini jawapan tersebut untuk pengetahuan umum.

Benar, mengikut Laporan Pelaburan Dunia (WIR, 2009), yang diterbitkan baru baru ini oleh Perdagangan dan Pelaburan Pertubuhan Bangsa-bangsa Bersatu (UNCTAD) telah mengesahkan bahawa pelaburan asing langsung (FDI) Malaysia merosot 81 peratus kepada US$1.38 bilion (RM4.43 bilion) pada 2009 daripada US$7.32 bilion (RM23.47 bilion) pada 2008.

Meskipun negara-negara ASEAN juga mengalami penurunan kemasukan FDI, ternyata tidaklah separah Malaysia. Thailand mendapat pelaburan sebanyak US$4.44 atau RM14.24 bilion sementara Indonesia sebanyak US$2.60 billion atau RM8.32 billion sekaligus meletakkan Malasyia, antara negara tercorot sebagai negara pilihan pelaburan pelabur asing langsung bersama dengan Cambodia, Brunei dan Timor-Leste. Vietnam juga mendahului kita sekarang ini.Keadaan menjadi lebih buruk lagi tatkala diperhatikan bahawa bukan sahaja kemasukan FDI menjunam, pengaliran keluar dana tempatan adalah juga yang terbesar berbanding semua negara ASEAN sebanyak RM25.77 bilion.

Apakah makna semua ini? Mengapa FDI faktor penting dalam ekonomi negara?

Jawapannya mudah. Ketika negara tidak mampu lagi melakukan perbelanjaan besar (G-factor, termasuk mengepam ekonomi atau pump-priming)) kerana telah terbeban dengan hutang awam (kerajaan) sehingga ke paras 52.6% dari KDNK (RM362bilion), maka pertumbuhan negara mesti dipacu oleh pelaburan pihak swasta.

Pihak pelaburan swasta ada dua komponen. Satu pelaburan tempatan dan kedua pihak luar. Kini apa yang kita tahu ialah bukan sahaja dari luar kurang masuk (FDI) dari dalam pun banyak yang keluar. Antara lain ini bermaksud, keyakinan terhadap negara sebagai destinasi pelaburan yang baik, belum pulih.

Apabila ini berlaku ia membawa dua kesan besar. Satu, kesan pada pertumbuhan. Kerana kekurangan dana untuk memacu kegiatan ekonomi dan pelaburan dalam pelbagai bidang khsususnya pembuatan dan perkhidmatan, maka pertumbuhan 6% yang disasar tidak akan dapat dipacu. Keadaan akan menjadu lebih buruk apabila permintaan global dan serantau merosot kerana akan menjejaskan faktor Ekspot dalam KDNK.

Lebih parah lagi kalau sentimen pengguna juga turut terjejas. Terkini laporan MIER (Malaysian Institute of Economic Reserach) turut menunjukkan bahawa indeks sentimen pengguna merosot. Faktor Penggunaan (Consumption) akan turut memberi kesan negatif terhadap pertumbuhan. Penarikan subsidi terkini bahkan pengenalan GST nanti, tentunya akan memburukkan faktor Perbelanjaan khususnya ketika tercetusnya inflasi.

Apabila sasaran 6% pertumbuhan gagal dicapai, ini meninggalkan kesan lansung secara negatif kepada usaha untuk menjana pendapatan per kapita yang tinggi seperti yang diharapkan PM. Situasi ini jelas adalah tidak selesa sama-sekali untuk Najib bahkan ini mencemaskan dan berpotensi menyebabkan kesemua ’target-makro’ dalam RMK-10 tersasar.

Oleh kerana Malaysia adalah sebuah model ekonomi terbuka yang kecil (KDNK sebanyak ~RM700 bilion) serta bergantung kepada kegiatan ekspot maka menghasilkan barangan ekspot yang bernilai-tambah tinggi adalah penting untuk mengekalkan dayasaing negara.

Lain kiranya kalau kita mampu memacu pertumbuhan secara permintaan dan dana domestik seperti negara negara Scandinavia yang punya ekonomi kecil seperti Denmark, Norway atau Sweden yang mampu memacu pertumbuhan ekonomi dengan permintaan domestik.

Untuk memenuhi matlamat pertumbuhan negara, dana untuk pelaburan adalah cukup kritikal. Dana itu datang dari luar(FDI) atau dari pelabur tempatan. Kedua-dua ini mengikut laporan UNCTAD ini jelas merosot.

Itulah sebabnya pimpinan Najib dan BN mesti melihat apakah faktor-faktor yang menyebabkan situasi ini berlaku ataukah kita akan kekal dalam penafian seperti yang ditanggapi umum oleh kenyataan adik Najib, DS Nazir Razak, boss atau CEO CIMB itu, sebuah Investment Bank yang terulung di negara ini yang banyak mendapat habuan besar dari kegiatan kewangan korporat seperti M&A, IPO, terbitan Bon dan Sukuk dsbnya.

Sementara saya memahami apa yang beliau maksudkan dengan ‘quality investment’ dan ‘timing’nya, namun komentarnya itu tidak dapat menyangkal bahawa Malaysia, sebagai destinasi pelaburan, sudah tidak lagi berada dalam ‘radar utama pelabur’ asing dan juga tempatan.

Ada dua bentuk pelaburan asing; satu FDI dan kedua pelaburan ‘Portfolio’ dalam Bursa Malaysia. Kedua-dua penting. Yang lebih penting ialah FDI melalui Syarikat Multi-Nasional (MNCs) kerana ianya bersifat jangka-jauh dan terkadangkali membawa perpindahan teknologi disamping menjana pekerjaan.

Namun portfolio atau ‘hot-money’ juga penting dalam Pasaran Saham. Ia berperanan mengagihkan dana untuk syarikat-syarikat tersenarai (PLCs) untuk membuat pengembangan bisnes dan juga R&D&C dengan suntikan dana yang dilabur oleh pengurus-pengurus dana. Malangnya aliran masuk dana ke dalam Pasaran Saham juga muram dan akhirnya pelabur institusi tempatan juga yang melabur seperti KWSP, Tabung Haji, KWAP, LTAT dsbnya.

Tidak dapat dielakkan komentar Nazir semacam mahu membela abangnya. Ia agak tampak tak kena atau misplaced, dengan izin.

1. Selasa lepas saya membawa sekumpulan pemberita untuk melawat sebuah kawasan perlombongan pasir di Kambing Susu berhampiran Berjuntai Bestari dan Rawang. Ia bukan perlombongan haram seperti yang dilaporkan oleh sesetengah akhbar. Ia merupakan kawasan perlombongan yang ada permit tetapi melanggar undang-undang dan dipercayai ada unsur penipuan yang serius. 2. Permit melombong pasir di Kambing

The decision by the Transport Minister, Datuk Seri Kong Cho Ha to override the decision of the Port Klang Authority (PKA) and direct it to pay its Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) bond obligation of RM222.58 million to Freezone Capital Bhd (FZCB) is another proof that his topmost concern and those of the Najib Cabinet [...]
