My Say and Thought: A day almost forgotten by all Malaysian except for...

46 years ago, 16 September 1963, something big happened in South East Asia. A new nation was born... a nation which now had been divided into 2... a nation called Malaysia.

If you happened to be a Malaysian reader, there might just be two reaction. Either you scratch your head in confusion for the 'fact' that 'Malaysia' gain independent on 31st August 1957 and had celebrated it's 52th anniversary not so long ago or you are in deep pain that no voices had been made regarding the significance national day of a nation you live in.

A quick historical review, on 31st August 1957, Federation of Malaya was form, after the last time Union Jack was flagged in soil of Malaya Peninsula that day. And no, it was not Malaysia, it was Malaya or Persekutuan Tanah Melayu in Malay. After much debate and referendum made, it was on the 16 September 1963, Singapore, Sarawak, Sabah and Malaya formed another new nation called Malaysia. However, Singapore and Malaysia split in 1969 after racial crisis.

Therefore, the date 31st August 1957 was actually a national day for a former nation which only lasted for a MERE 6 years and 16 days. And yet, after 46 years of defunct, our federal government still insist to celebrate national day of a former nation. The reason given by our government was that Sabah, Sarawak and Singapore joined Malaya during that time. And that Malaysia was not a new nation. This really challenge the sentimental patients of Sarawakian and Sabahans, or at least those who are really at heart and soul with the state. The word joined used really does shows disrespect for Sarawak and Sabah for what the 2 states had contributed to the nation it formed.

Forget about the oil, log, and other natural resources contributed to the federal government, Sarawak and Sabah had always been given the least amount of development fund per unit area in the states. This is proven by poor quality federal trunk road available. Even some major part of Sarawak was not connected or needed to be separated by another nation Brunei. This cause immobility for indigenous people in the two states to suffer most. The federal government really had overlook their right which is preserves by the Malaysian Constitution which put them as the same rank and category as... er... Malay? Now where is the Agong to protect them? They were all living in pain. They might also not knowing what nation they belongs as they were neglected!

I myself being a Sarawakian feels sad for the government not honouring the fact that Malaysia is a nation and 16 September as the National Day of Malaysia. Even more painful, the federal government actually formed majority by Sarawak and Sabah law makers. Strangely, the cabinet consists of less than 1/4 Sarawakian and Sabahan. And for the fact that these 2 states were often neglected in Rancangan-rancangan Malaysia although of course, the cabinet which are almost empty with Sarawakian and Sabahan ministers deny all of it.

Is this really a discrimination, or are Sarawakian and Sabahan really are too afraid or not knowing the situation are?

Now back to the title, A day almost forgotten by all Malaysian except for..., I must say, today indeed is a day almost forgotten by all Malaysian except for those who studies Malaysian history or those hard core lovers of Sarawak and Sabah. But I don't know how long can these people live before the G rewrites history themselves (as what they did referring Rajah Brooke's dynasty as colonization... I'm asking you, how can a King be a colonizing his own nation? How bout Sumatran born Parameswara and our current Sultans and Agong then?) and all true Sarawakian and Sabahan dies.

Anyhow, I will always stay Malaysian and will always cherish September the 16th as the National Day of my beloved nation and that August 31st are celebrated by ego crazy peninsula ministers and those they had brain washed.

My Say and Thought: Loneliness

Just this afternoon, I decided to have my lunch at the University cafeteria in oppose with my friends who wanted to have their meal outside. So as usual, I walk to the cafeteria alone, put my bags down and go scooping a big portion of vegetables and just a tiny portion of rice. After paying my food, I went to where I left my belongings and sat to enjoy a good lunch. I noticed when I was paying my food, some course mates arrived and more to arrived.

As I was enjoying my lunch (as usual), I saw the bunch of course mates sits together a few tables from me. Well, again as usual I continued enjoying my lunch of huge piles of veg and curry. A friend of mine suddenly appeared and say something I had been hearing a lot of time. He said, "Oh my, having lunch alone?". As usual, I replied "Yes. Anything wrong?". He then said (something I heard for a lot of time too) "Oh my. Why are you having your lunch alone? I really pity looking at you having your lunch alone.".

Few days back, I met a friend as I was having my dinner. Then we greet each other and scooped our food and sat down for our dinner. Then he suddenly ask whether I was having my meal alone and I replied yes. He told me that his course mate buddies were out on trip and that he was not interested to join in. That's why he was having his dinner alone. So then he continued by asking me am I having my meal alone constantly everyday? I relied again in a cool manner explaining that I sometimes would not follows my friends out for food (the have every meals outside, or almost) that I wanted to have more less oily vegetables prepared by the cafeteria. So he nodded owh...

There was an alumnus who came to my room almost every Wednesday due to some sort of business. Met for the first time, he asked me what activities I was currently joining. Then I say I wasn't really active in activities in my university. I am not ready to brag my involvement in activities, not to be over proud of what I do as I do not do much here due to heavy self-centered politicians wannabe in most societies. The next time he came he was seems to treats me like a pathetic loner and 'offered' various activities. He then started to talk philosophy about socializing and promote a Taiwan based society which according to him do 'great charity to the world'. Yes, at that point, I had to preserve my dignity. So I counter his philosophy with what I had in mind and how actually the society he promotes actually promotes only egoism and racism among Chinese by doing little charity as a stepping stone. He was shocked and never really bother me after that.

Okay, by now, readers might think that I am a pathetic denial and anti-socialites who are too naive in what he do and that he has not seen the world enough. Well all I have to say is that for those who tries to pity me at this point, you are a pathetic low self-esteemed naive brat that is living in purest of denial. Alright, denial will deny anything as you would say but let me explain what I had said in the past sentence.

If you would observed the three situation I explained above, of which all are real of me, they are simply petite stuffs which were often over rated by today's society. I mean, are having meals alone and not involves in societies because you do not fit in considered pathetically lonely? NO! I actually knows what you had to think and feel about me. I was actually experiencing the same feeling for a short period of time in secondary school. I am fat, not sexually attractive, not a drama lover, not a contemporary music fan and definitely not from a wealthy family. I couldn't just have friends in a snap and having surrounded by friends and friends all the time. And I can't even fit into conversation of my friends when they start to talk on musics and dramas. Worse still when conflict happen, I feel even more lonely and well, it hurts.

I was asking myself then, should I force myself to love contemporary raps and dramas, or should I suck some extra money from my parents so I could buy a brand new camera phone (hot and new then) to impress and lure friends? Should I really change myself just to be accompanied by friends constantly? Or should I just join societies which I'm not interested in just to widen my social cycle?

Luckily, I soon found the answer to all my questioning after combination of words form my parents, friends, teachers and life stories of some not so famous people. Yes, the answer is NO! Not that I oppose any socializing or wide social circle but rather have it as yourself. After a long thought, I truly rather have few close friends than having all sort of friends for all sort of interest you have. Cherish each and everyone of your friendship and never use your friendship just to fulfill your plain desire and egoism. Of course, unless you found or you believe the term soul mate, there are no single person in the world who can be with you all the time. And having 'substitutes' for them every time they are not with you really shows how weak you are. Are you actually that pathetic that you need some kind of bolster friend each time you face a challenge? Or should you grow up right now and face challenges on your own at least for a few times.

After realizing these, I soon grows hates on politicians foremost. They are the really pathetic group I mentioned. Even some the Presidents of United States of America themselves, sweet talk to the citizens labeling them their 'dearest most friends' while campaigning and promise shook every citizens hand during electoral campaigns. But after conquered the White House, they would eventually do what the Presidents do, follows the desire of the economy manipulators and just be the 'Head of the World'. Okay, I might gone out of hand here but as usual this is the worst case scenarios and yes there are good Presidents of USA over the years. (I chose Ps of USA as examples because they are safer targets than Malaysian PM.)

Now back to the 3 initial situations, they weren't even the least of what English would define as challenges! Is having meals alone actually a life challenge? Or choosing to stay away from politics during studies a timid act? Answer me please anyone! If one do not even have guts having a simple nice meal alone, what can you do when you suddenly faces real challenges alone in the future? Having to find substitutes again? Well even in football, substitutes weren't always available and sometimes causes harm than good.

Let's move further back to the title, loneliness. So how the world actually define loneliness? How lonely should someone be to be considered lonely. Does it mean surrounding by people you know them by names but not in person makes you less lonely. Does it mean having some companion during meals you do not actually know in person actually makes celebrated? Do you make friends just to fill your boredom and not to care less about friendship except having someone by your side when you needed them? Have you ever hesitated or even help your so called friends in coffee shop, or friends in society, or friends in bus stop, or friends in hostel when they actually face trouble. Do you even know they are facing trouble as you only talk specifics and crap with them!? Do you ever think that in a chaotic situation, being actually lonely is something good? Do you ever think that people who you think lonely were just taking time of of what they considered hectic while you called it a party? Have you forced yourself to fit in when another genre of music, fashion or even new games appear just to not be left out in the society? Or do you considered knowing someone's first name, age and school they went as friend? Please let me know.

Yes, I heard people say, alone is when you were on your on when no other people are around while lonely is when you were on your on and out of the crowd's topic while there were crowd surrounding you. But loneliness doesn't necessarily a bad thing to deal with. Neil Armstrong, the first and only man to date to step on the moon, was selected to NASA's mission just not because he was the greatest as they were many equally great people. But he was chosen because he was low profile and not extravagant. And no, he wasn't one of the man who influenced me as I am not easily influenced by even great people as I only knew about his after Apollo mission life yesterday via a well written article by the Vice Chancellor of Uniersiti Sains Malaysia himself. For the record, unlike most famed astronauts, Mr. Armstrong works in academic after the mission happily in a very low profile. But does he know less? Does he pity himself? Or do YOU pity him? Please tell me, again.

And finally to clarify, I am not even the least of anti-socialite or self-centered person. I just live my life without being manipulated easily and that I learn to love myself more. I'm not easily befriended, just because I do not act much, but when I actually considered someone a friend, he/she really does mean something in my life. That is why very close friends and especially family members can easily cause me great depression if I found they tell stab me behind my back, for the fact that I do cherish them a lot. And for the last record, I might look like a lonely person at times, but I never felt lonely then as it's kind of time-out for me to enjoy what my brain and heart had to tell myself. When I feel like out going, nobody can stop me!

Personal Public: When I Screwed Up

I have always personally believed politics are the largest BS in the world. Politicians mindset are either narrow or damn greedy for wealth. They talk and conduct differently. Of course there are good politicians whom leads in the past but the figure are numbered. In fact very easily numbered. So this give me a great reason of believing that politics will kill the Earth before death of Sun.

Yes, after reading the first paragraph, you might say that hating and attack politics itself is a kind of politics. And again yes, I'm really into counter-conventional politics based science, real science, Physics, Chemistry and Biology and not idiotic disgraceful social science (in fact it should be call social study for nerds who don't know what social is). And yes, I have been openly say this kind of stuffs often to my friends and people I know.

Currently studying in university, I am well shocked by how some people ignore politics all (which is VERY GOOD). They even stay out of a simple chat on politics. But what surprised me more is that there are more who really are into politics. No matter in what societies or bodies, it seems like everyone on the board is fighting for their self gain agenda. Same goes to the floor who really prepared to step heads in order to be in the board. This really frustrated me and I actually became passive due to their idiotic selfishness.

Activities are all done for only if they gain something physical like fame or money. And making matter worst, all activities at my campus is done based totally 100% on racial view. Yes, their report suggest that those activities are multiracial you never really can see different tone of colour in an activity,. Its either dark, semi dark or bright. There might be some bright spot which will eventually destry the scenery or some dark hole which will suck in all the good will.

This brings me to this Annual General Meeting of a society which I attended. The boards were selected by people (mostly juniors) which had been manipulated by certain 'power grip'. And I can confidently say if only I had taken photos or video during voting, I can prove that there are manipulation of votes by the former committee which happens to be the vote counter.

But what I've just screwed up is that it makes me so frustrated that every time this question or situation popped out in a conversation, all my curse and hates blew out. Well, that's pretty bad isn't it? I really does screwed up this time in front of some I should have not confronted as it was the opposing side. Yes, I can only confront when I had numbers which supported me but it seems like those who hated politics aren't willing to take them down to stay neutral.

I might as well try to really lay low as I can feel that I'm not in a neutral or dark night situation anymore...more as a Cuba is to the USA.

My Say and Thought: In the Name of Name

Human history are very complex. In fact all those stories you heard about human species are evolution from ape are mere unproven theory. But one thing is certain, as human's population around the globe expanded, each community and even each individual need something to distinct them from others. There are many methods to distinct a community from one another. Among them are languages, skin tone, general appearance and gender. However, to distinct a particular individual, there is only one very effective method, NAME.

So yes, in every civilization known today, human will distinct from one another by using name. I does not matter which your name are derived from, name is their to serve one very important purposes, to distinct you from one another. As time gone by, many names are used repeatedly over and over again. This can be seen a trend of some religion practice to name their children after a prophet of their believe. Some parents even name their children after themselves, i.e: ex-American President George Bush who named his son, also ex-American President George W Bush.

Some other parents gave their children name a mix of origins irrespective of religion such as myself, Alex Yeo Siang Chiew, who am not a Christian although given the name Alex by my dad. So I did ask my dad why did he name me Alex in the first place. Well, as far as I can remember, he did say it's easier for people to call me or remember my name. Besides, in any list of name, I would be in front form the way last (form 'Y'eo to 'A'lex). Oh well, I proudly live with it until today. No problem for me.

This leads me to a new trend in society today. Well, it's not actually that new given that people did it way before time but it seems that it is getting out of hand in today's world. The trend I mean is to give oneself a new name or literally change it all. Call me conservative but I personally thinks that renaming oneself is for people who have low self esteem, who thinks his/her name to be disturbing, who cannot accept the simplest of reality. Do not brush me off yet, let me explain my points.

You see, even in my case, my dad did not name me the traditional way for few reasons. These reasons are mention above are generally for my convenience in life. Yes, being place first on the list every time does help quite a lot in a queue. But those are merely little insignificant convenience. Yes, people can remember me better as Alex more than Siang Chiew for it is easier to remember and pronounce. But what for letting people to remember my name easier?

I personally thinks that when people pay more effort to remember your name, you are play more significance for them. Maybe they like you, maybe they think you are a great pal or maybe you are simply someone great. Therefore, no matter how hard it is to remember your name, if you are important, valued and in it, you will be remember for a long time. Name such as Galileo Galilei, Siddhartha Gautama, and Michelangelo aren't really easy to spell or pronounce but people all around the world knew them. So this prove that people who change their name simply to ease others for remembering them have lo self esteem.

I was also told that especially for Chinese, having a foreign name would be cool, like myself, Alex. There are several popular cool name around, Jay, Jackie, McLAREN, Joe Kenneth, Bobby and so on. I mean, how do you actually rate the coolness of a name? Some even gave themselves Japanese name such as, Kirato, Sukiyami, Nakumi and so on for they think Japanese are cool. Let me ask you, have you even ever goes to Japan to see the lives of their people? Or you think Japanese are sort of the life seen in your Japanese cartoon and comics? The truth is that Japanese are very proud of their own identity and would rather suicide if force to change it. Same applies for Russian, Italian and French. Even Indonesian created a whole new Bahasa Indonesia and Nama Indonesia. They need not name themselves a their Prophet name nor having their descendant tradition. This is because they are successful in creating a whole new identity of a nation. These nation mentioned will always cherish their identity as a national treasure. So why we Chinese never actually appreciate our own identity? Because we think they are greater? Or it is because we worship them as our God? Or have we lost our identity? Our pride?

This lead us back to the original purposes of name. Name merely created by human all around the world to distinct oneself from another. But this purpose had been redefined by some people who have lost themselves, either in identity sake, self esteem, self pride, family pride or even think they lost it biologically. They seems to think that they do not belong to one community and always thinks that other community are way better for the sake that they never really fight for their own community and identity. In short, this is a sickness, not just any sickness but a mental illness. These people just see things better than what they own or live in. They never even accept themselves biologically as a distinct sub species of homo sapiens!

People, maybe I am wrong or maybe you are living in denial. But at least for once, respect our parents for giving us a name they want to call us as. Cherish their dream of having a kid they can call as theirs. Do not be too arrogant and live your life the way you want, because the world is defined only by one, PHYSICS.

Techy-Rave: YEAPS! BMW Z4M Racer won the 10th MME Race in Sepang!

After a failed attempt to finish the race in 2007, a noble 4th place finish in 2008, the BMW Z4M Racer finally stamped itself as champion in the 10th MME Race on 09.08.2009 midnight! The better news was that the Z4M make an awesome 1-2 finish in the 10th MME Race 2009!

The two winning cars were piloted by Team Syntium Petronas, which wore no. 28 for the winning car and n.15 for the 2nd place. There were actually an upset as car no.15 had a puncture with 30 minutes remaining time, luckily, the driver was able to slug his car back to the pit for a change of tyre. This might had cause tham a record number of laps record as they were the leading car then. The lap recod were held by Team Porsche Singapore with 308 laps. Car no. 15 were just 2 laps behind the record so as car n0.28 which robbed the chaqured flag due to no.15's puncture. If it hadn't been a pucture, I'm sure that the Z4M Racer sure had beaten the lap record set of 308 set in a 997 -911 GT3.

The car were powered by a tuned BMW 3.2 litre inline-6 engine producing a peak power of 400hp and a peak torque of 400Nm. It's basically a race version of the BMW Z4M road car which stop it's production not so long ago replaced by a new generation of Z4. This is the first and only 2 seater BMW race car ever produced by factory as BMW had focussed on building a racer form the legendary M3 series. But personally for me, race means 2 seater conversion and not a 4 seater coupe. Oh well, what matter is that it is still competitive compared to the much powerful and accomplished Porsche legendary 911 in the GT3 form.

Althought it was an upset, the BMW Z4M Racer totally dominated the 12 hours endurance race and kicked the more than a dozen of more powerful Porsche entries hard! And yes...I'll be please to see it again next year!

Personal Public: Solid Deformation

Well taking Engineering Materials in my first year first semester at university did not go well. I end up just B+ for it. Yes all the property of matter from the molecular structure to the bulk structure gave me a real headache. Again in second year semester 1, I was required to take Manufacturing Technology 1 as a core subject. All those materials properties strike me again. But no, this post isn't about it, so don't sway away yet!

In those two courses, as well as in form 6 Physics, we studied deformation of solid. This in fact was very important topic in everyday life. It makes us understand not to stretch something over its limit or when it was about to break. For glass instead, we know it will not deform in any form as it would end up braking in pieces if subjected to a massive force. Ok, don't sway away yet.

This led me to an interesting thing I've just done 2 days ago. You see, I bought a headphone along with my Dell Inspiron in March 2008. The headphone I bought output quite a good quality of sound. Treble might not be world class but the bass is near amazing. Costing just RM28, obviously it was made in China. I did not took a photo of it then, but it looks something like the left picture, yes, very compact. Easy for me to bring along when I travel by air. So everything seems so perfect doesn't it?

Not a bit! Due to compact its design, it cramped dearly to users' ears! And after using it for a year, regularly and for a long time, I finally call it a close. You see, the material used in the cross bar is very elastic. It will tend to squeeze user's ear tightly. This can be very uncomfortable after a brief 10 minutes use. No thanks to my large haed, my ears will feel like I'm in a desert after I use it, deep red. So after tolerating for a year, I decided that it served its duty for a good long year now aznd it's fairwell. Yes, PC Fair is around the conner and it seems so well accidentally planned!

But you see, the sound it produce is still better, much better than the intergrated speakers of my Inspiron. So, of course, letting it go would be a bit hard. It was then I recall deformation of solid. Well, an elastic solid would deform until a certain point, called the yield stress, where the solid would undergo a permanent deformation. That is when I took my headphone, which had again tried to eat my head alive, a damn good stretch! So good that it really deform permanently! After a another few stretchs, it now fits my big head perfectly! A very soft grip makes it in place but its no longer trying to eat my head. I actually feels that it's a new headphone!

To conclude, if you have an annoying headphone like mine, and gets very annyoed, do not throw away, STRETCH IT! Stretch it HARD! WOOHOO! Yes yes yes, intergration of scientific knowledge to an almost meaningless situation in science perspective but well, it works! :P

Techy-Rave: EIMA Race 2009

July 25th, 2009, a date of nothing significance for most of the people out there. But for Mechanical Engineering undergraduates and other related field studies in Malaysia, it was hell a day! It was the Educational Innovation Motorsports and Automotive (EIMA) Race 2009. The venue of this race was...well...not Sepang International Circuit, but Pasir Salak Racing Circuit..LOLL.

This season was participated by 11 Higher Learning Institution in Malaysia namely Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Institut Penyelidikan Teknologi Penang, Universiti Industri Selangor, Universiti Putra Malaysia, Politeknik Seberang Prai, Politeknik Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah, Politeknik Kota Bahru, Institut kemahiran Mara Lumut and Universiti Tun Hussein Onn. And if you noticed, USM did field any team for this year race. So we are all there just to do some spy job and hopefully doing a great technology espionage for next year event :P.

The racer for this race were powered by a single cylinder four stroke motorcycle engine fitted in a fully customised chassis. The whole body panel and suspension were mainly design parts. Mostly made out of basic structures, only UTM's and UniSEL's entry had advance differential transaxle at the rear. Transmission wise, only UTM's entry used a full dry clutch while others option for wet clutch transmission. The race was a 30 lap endurance race which was dominated by UniSEL's entry. With superior engine tuning with addition of differential transaxle, UniSEL's totally dominated the scene as it almost lapping at least 1 car per lap it does. Only PSSAAS's both entries gave UniSEL some fight but were out due to engine failure. Other stable and reliable car include PKB's entry which if not mistaken end up in 3rd. There was a car with serious low speed back fire but it still manages to finish the race. UPM's entry suffers a major setback as it fail during the last lap.

It was a total opposite story for Johor's two Universities, UTM and UtHM. UTM's car was given highest expectation for it's advance design which compromises of a differential trasaxle, manual clutch and a 125cc engine. It all turned to be a myth as it doesn't perform as expected in the time trial and the race. It was not a fight at all for UniSEL's winning car. The greatest shocked was during the closing laps, it's fuel tank snap and dislocated itself. This prevent the petrol to flow into the engine for combustion so the car just stopped like that.

UTM's entry fall from grace, UtHM's car was a slow climber. Having a look like the 50's F1 car, it was damn slow during time trial and race. The engine sounds weak and the whole car was shaking as it moves. After several into the race, it found itself being lapped by even the middle pack. So it went for a pit stop. That pit stop certainly was blessed by the God's tears (if God exist) as it was transformed into a competitive car after! It was able to over take all other middle pack including my favourite PKB's highly reliable car! I still did not manage to know what they did during the pit stop but it was amazing of how 1 pit stop manage to do. If they had only figured out what went wrong, they should had finished 2nd in my guess. But since being in the pit stop for sometime, it was classified last out of 4 cars that finishes the race. All other 7 cars were out due to mechanical failure.

I only manage to snap some photo related to engine as I was assigned to spy on their engine works. :P

Personal Public- Campus Close Down

Due to suspected Influenza A H1N1 outbreak in USM Engineering Campus, the whole campus had beed closed down for one week stated yesterday.

Everything started when 8 suspected case were reported and quarantine. All the management of USM Engineering Campus had an emergency meeting on Tuesday night. And as far as I can observed, the meeting lasted till morning when they announce closure.

We were all subjected to compulsory medical check up for body temperature. Those whose body temperature exceed 37.5 degree Celsius were taken to the clinic before given paracetamol to see whether their temperature goes down. Those whose temperature goes down are cleared. Luckily, few of my friends who was taken away were cleared later on. All peninsula Malaysians were asked to leave the campus only leaving postgraduates and overseas students ( which included Sarawakians and Sahanans). And my body temperature was 37.2 that day. :P

Today morning, those who were left in the campus were again subjected to another body temperature screening. And I was surprised that my body temperature was only 36.6 as I felt a little fever in the morning. Maybe there's some reading error and that my body temperature should be 37.6 and would be subjected for further screening! But oh well, I will volunteer for further screening if I really did feel sick anyway (as I did on Monday night).

I have mixed feelings about this closed down. On one hand I'm pissed because every academic session had been halted due to this closure. But on the other hand, it's like a holiday! I had about 14 hours of sleep yesterday. So kinda nothing to loose here I guess.

Ilogicality: OMG WTF is going on with my BELOVED Nation!!!!

Oh Miracle of Big Bang, Oh dear Lord, Oh dear Buddha, Oh mighty Ti Gong, I really want to address my shock in all religion views but I might be caught by some organization under Law of Malaysia, ONLY MALAYSIA.

It seems like the Government of Malaysia Federation is reverting the teaching of Science and Mathematics back to the official national language Bahasa Malaysia. Well, as someone who had studied Science and Mathematics in BM and English, I sure have many thing to condemn the G's decision on reverting the medium language for the 2 subjects. Damn, I have tons to say but I'm scared I would end up in jail under the act of AUKU and ISA. So I'll try to be soft core.

The G said that using BM as Science and Maths medium can help rural folks catch up in the globalization age. Well, I'm very sorry to tell them how short sighted they are. If those rural folks did believe the G and champion their policy, they would end up knowing nothing that's happening to the world. How can they ever cope up with multinational companies? How on Earth are they able to be hired by multinational dealings company if they don't know how to command in English. How on Earth are engineers and scientists all over the world to communicate with then when they have a truly tremendous ideas and innovations? Would the G 'help'?

Maybe they would be absorb in G sector, leaving those children of pathetic ministers to take over the entire private sector kingdom at let those ex-rural folks looking from G squatters in envy of their BMWs and Mercs. Yes, ministers send their children overseas for solid education. They are so kind to let rural folks study in the super efficient, hyper solid Malaysian Eduation so to protect them, do charity, as what malay would say, kera di hutan dipelihara, anak di rumah mati kelaparan. Oh yes! How 'generous is our G!!!!! I'm so touched... Someone please stop me from dripping my tears!

Oh dear... learning Science and Maths isn't that bad for basic foundations. But when things go in details, we really need lots of global references. Me myself started using foreign books back in form 6 and it does help me a lot. This kind of learning can surely started earlier if I had accessed to those books and right terms. Yet, those policy maker and critics of teaching of Science and Maths in English were mostly pure political and social science figure which knows nothing about Science and Maths. Oh sorry, our ex-PM does know that making tempe (a kind of bean based local delicacy) is an 'highly advance' Biotecnology process hidden from the West civilization...How sad!

Come on! If the G thinks the Malaysian Education system is so great, maybe they can amend an Act whict state that
"Every political power and figure or anyone involved in business with political movements irrespective of level and income, must send their children only to Malaysian Education system through out their entire life. Their Account would be frozen and will be integrated into national emergency fund if they were ever caught spending money on foreign education, which includes the International School in Malaysia."
This would probably help a lot in giving me and other average income family confidence that we are having the best education in the world. This is due to the fact that average suffers most. Poor folks will cry on television to obtain foreign scholarships under JPA or MARA. Influential and rich folks can either 'arrange' a scholarship or send their children on their own if they choose to be responsible. We average folks suffer in middle because the G thinks RM2000 family income per month can send all 3 children to overseas for education. Oh yes its true! If only they are cronies of G which does corruptions.

Using English in Science and Maths is merely using the English as a stepping stone and not threatening the Kedaulatan Bahasa Melayu. Saya sendiri megaku bahawa saya dapat berbahasa Melayu degan baik. Bahkan, saya berani mengatakan bahawa hampir kesemua menteri dalam kabinet berbahasa Melayu dengan amat teruk. Merekalah pengkhianat negara. Merekalah yang menghantar anak-anak mereka ke luar negara supaya anak-anak mereka akan dapat mendapat pendidikan yang sempurna (dalam Bahasa Inggeris). Dengan tindakan ini, mereka dapat menyekat anak-anak Malaysia yang lain daripada menjadi cerdik pandai seperti mereka. Mereka adalah lebih keji daripada pihak penjajah yang mengamalkan polisi pecah perintah. Kenyataan ini disebabkan mereka menyekat peluang pelajaran kepada rakyat berpendapatan sederhana dan rendah.

I think I would stop here as I still want continue pursuing my very first degree. I do not want be caught and send to jail because I am accused of creating cause chaos in this nation I love. But mos of all, I do not want to be caught and labeled as a traitor when I fight for the well-being of this nation by the real traitors who manipulated the whole scene of Malaysian System as an integrated whole.

Let us fight in silence. One day the truth will rule this nation.

My Say and Thought: Transformers Movies

Transformers- a cartoon series I love to watch as a little boy more than a decade ago. Yes, I have forgotten the little details about Transformers but I can still remember the Autobots headquarter was a spaceship wreck on a hill slope. Other details that came to my mind is that there are varieties of famous European made cars, yes, including the legendary Porsche 911 as the Bumblebee. And that no matter how hard the Autobots fight, particulaly Optimus Prime, they never gonna beat the hell out of Decepticons lead by Megatron, the mmost evil villiant in the series.

Other than that, I just can remember myself cheering for the loser Autobots as I prefer to support the underdogs (the reason why I hate Ultraman when I was 6 above). Me and my brother will discuss the mighty long truck of Optimus as compared to Megatron. I still remember all many Autobots rides on Optimus' covered truck.

But I continued watching the part sequeal, Beast War Transformers until the very last episode when Optimus the Gorilla sacrifice himself by hitting his ord into Megatron the dragon in disguised to bring the robotic and organic world to peace and corelated.

This leads me to the movie Transformer. The first movie was alomost typical Transformer cartoon series story line, but it does disturb me quite a lot. First of all, the cars. They are all Americans! Now that's quite abnormal for me. You see, American cars are generally a bad car as to compared to European cars (although might be better than Proton). This gives the Autobots sense of cheapness especially BumbleBee. Imagine, from a legendary European sport car series turn into cheap American muscle car.

Right. Other than that, the Autobots seems to be exagerated in terms of size. As I remembered, even Optimus was minute compared to 2nd or 3rd ranked Decepticons. But in the movies, the Autobots was 'grown' from a car size to a size comparable to a warplane, particularly the F-22 Raptor. But the biggest disapointment must be how easy Megatron was defeated. I mean, the only way for Optimus and the Autobots to defeat Megatron is that Optimus die together with Megatron. Yes there can be a retreat by the Decepticons, but there could never be a captured of Megatron, secured under there ocean bed protected by F'king American Navy.

The movie became worse in the 2nd movie. The first boos from me is to 'assign' a European supercar, the Audi R8 a Decepticons. And that the movie was created to be a tribute to the F'cking 'mighty' American defends. From President Obama to Aircraft Carrier USS Rossevelt, the might of US Defends was clearly showed. Other issue for me was how brutal was Optimus in killing the Decepticans. Although Optimus have the responsibility of restore peace by destroying Megatron, he wasn't assigned to kill off other Decpeticons. In other words, he must shows the greatest mercy even to decepticons. And there's the Fallen, the alleged king of Decepticons, slashed into pieces by the 'improverd' Optimus. What makes me uncomfortable that even Megatron has his master. This is not right as I remembered from the cartoon.

Yes, the movie line is good. But it just focusses on the wrong side of the true old school Transformers fans would like to see. Especially when the Autobots were focus mainly on 2 characters, Optimus and Bumblebee. And it's just not right for involving so much of human until they went so far and edited megan Fox to look hot, yes, she was digitally mastered for the movie. If just they renamed it RobotWars, then I will surely be a fan of it. Call me a conservative then.

Agree with me or not, up to you all but I am disappointed.


MEGAN FOX

Even from the first movie, I can sense something's wrong with this hot chick. She look a little artificial to me, at least. Then I got to know that in the second film, they hired a team of professional graphic designers to hot-up Megan even further. And yes it shows. But I still don't care much as she looks the best to a man's eyes in movies or photoshoots. But in red carpet, she just do not look that stunning.

This lead me to this discovery. Megan reveal herself as a man, a transvertive who was a man. That does surprise me a lot but not to hell. If we got this from Charlize Theron or Scarlett Johanssen, then I will die for them. But not Megan as she has the macho-chabo face as I would say. Her sexual element was just from the macho side of a girl. Well, again my personal opinion. LOL.

And I do not deny that I do kept 2 photos of megans with her bare thighs form Maxim photoshoot. Maxim does those so well and does kept their reputation as a prime sensible non- nude men's magazine. I'm not ashamed even if Megan really is a man because I just do not considered a girl digitally mastered and her real self as the same person, so as make-up. LOL
