Think Different

Have you ever wondered whether our world was administered by a computerbank?

Would it not be scary if our very lives depended on swift transactions each day by a man made computer?

Computers have helped mankind greatly over the past 50 years. In 2004, would it be possible for most man made systems to be completely computerised. All we have to do is head to the office, push pencil and paper and head home once done.

In today's terms, this is our system. The human system of 2004. We live and coorperate hand in hand in a beautifully crafted system. Who made it? Who invented IT?

My best guess would be war heroes from the 2nd world war. At the turn of the century.
Now this system is in place of perfection and the slightest human intervention would provide a negative impact.

I quote the lyrics from this song by Black Eyed Peas - Where is the love ?

' Something's wrong with the big big world, somethings's wrong with IT '

Food

Recently, I have been interested in fine dining.

Most of us love food. Its an allround basic necessity for all. How does one specialise in fine dining?

Hotel's are famous for exotic fine foods. 5 Star hotels usually have the best expertise in preparing one of many exquisite meals for their guests.

How does one learn to be good at this subject?

Hotel Management.

There are numerous hotel management schools around the globe. Most providing education and training for people whom want to be hotelliers.

What if one just wants to have fun in a University environment?

The choice is Hotel Management for me.

You'll be surprised at what you can learn an pick up after completing an MBA in Hospitality Management.

The course is a general MBA degree with specialisation in areas of Accounting, Marketing, Finance, Human Resource Management and the rest.

As an option to the best business schools in the world such as Wharton, I honestly think that Hotel Management Schools offer the next best MBA.

After all, we all love food.

Don't we?

Communication

Have you ever wondered how many types of communication languages there are?

I would like to discuss communication with colour.

Given my preffered choice, bright colours give out the best image.
A message contained in colour schemes is very effective when doing presentations.

Pictures help. However they tend to reveal too much at once.

This site started off as a quaint diary. I do not know what it is now though.

Writing makes me feel complete.

Chinese New year is a couple days away. Long seasoned holiday for many Malaysians alike.

Drive SAFELY, and have a pleasant new year.

Distinguished Gentleman - WMPWT

Someone special to me indeed turns 74 today. This person has been the most important figure in my entire life.

This extraordinary person gave me religion, instilled the best values and continously teaches me how to live.

I am greatful to Allah S.W.T that I have a person like this in my beautiful life.

Most of the time we are shy to show our love for others.

Lets not make this menial factor deteriorate our lives. Loved ones will always remain a gem in my heart.

I love you.

Zarique.

Public Speaking

I decided to join a local speaking club today. It was much fun.

Public speaking gives you the freedom to speak your mind when necessary.
There are skills involved but nevertheless it is easy to pick up.

I did not expect a RM 150 membership charge. Why pay to talk?

Anyways my counterparts cannot work for free, therefore it is legitimised.

Over the past week, I have been getting responses that my blog as such is getting old and dainted.

Perhaps a makover will help?

As ordinary human beings alike, we love to read what is intriguing and what is unusual. I have minimised my self-reporting efforts towards the publication of my daily dosages of life.
They are done for reasons that are practical.

I continue to blog for fun and the benefit of my readers.

My table topic today was rather unusual. It was suggested by a friend, Zarina.

Confidently I pulled through rather well with the exception of not being able to look at the audience.

I quote Zarina, 'writing is an integration of mind, body and spirit'

Writing enables me to feel complete. Incidences, experiences and unforgettable moments are kept in the mind. When translated into words, they make better sense.

The mind is important. It keeps the body and spirit together.

Before I continue 'blowing my own horn' about this blog and writing, I shall stop here with the following;

'It is better to be quiet and remain a fool then to speak unwantingly thus being one' - Zarique.

Working

Planning is good when there is presence of organisation. An organised individual from society can be well respected when all resources available are utilised efficiently. We are individuals, we form society.
Lets use all thats available!

Business planning? What is it..

My best guess, well a designation for someone whom wants to achieve success!

Most of us earn degrees at uni. Have we asked ourselves how much our degrees have helped us in society?

First of all it is a standard measure of 'one's competence. It is the basic entry requirement for most working class systems.

What determines a succesful employer? Does a Masters and MBA? Or is it merely office politics?

My approach is simple. Make it academic and practical.

A combination of both.
Perhaps somebody with an ordinary bachelors degree is able to be successful?

I think so.

We are all equipped with excellent brains.

Its simply the case of using it.

Lets DO IT.

Good people policing.

Change of Heart

Have you ever felt a strong gutsy feeling whenever you are nervous? Whenever anxiety attacks happen?

Don't you ever wonder what causes this? Perhaps it only exists in our minds, then again it could be completely real.

The best way to overcome this is through self determination and praying to our one and only god, Allah S.W.T.

The best and simple words anybody can say to themselves is, ' I CAN '.

Tough Times don't last,

TOUGH PEOPLE DO.

ZARIQUE.

First and Last.

How does one live life fully?

You only live once, Live IT.

I find that there are human beings whom are able to smile 16 hours a day without a sign of worry. These individuals are positive in nature.

We live in a world which is full of problems. How we tackle the situation is an art in itself.

Most of us would like to be in control of most factors within our lives. In retrospect, most of us are not able.

We are merely ants living in a multicomplex society.
How hard an ant works depends on how successful he is?

If we were to compare ourself to ants, life seems much simpler. They initially set their offspring and build a colony. A colony is merely a habitat where living organisms of the same species live in symbiosis. Ants need one another to live. They are great teamworkers.

A good example would be the moving of a dried leaf to form their natural habitat.

Ants would share the burden just to achieve a common goal.

I learn much from this. Have you?

Police II

Cops to more than double manpower to solve cases within 14 days

BY BEH YUEN HUI (http://www.thestar.com.my)

KUALA LUMPUR: The police aim to solve high-profile cases within 14 days and more than double its manpower in its criminal investigations department in a revamp that will involve five “problematic” sections of the CID.

The move followed a call by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi last week for the setting up of a Royal Commission aimed at overhauling the Royal Malaysian Police.

Abdullah, who is also Home Minister, said the force was facing a serious image crisis owing to negative public perception, allegations of police brutality, perceived corruption and their failure in respecting human rights.

Federal CID director Comm Datuk Seri Salleh Mat Som said the revamp was part of their effort to provide better services to the people and would involve the following: counter services, prosecution, investigations as well as stepping up operations on serious and organised crimes.

The respective federal deputy directors have been instructed to study and address the problems facing their sections, he told reporters after witnessing the handing over of duties of three federal CID assistant directors.

NEW APPOINTMENTS: Comm Salleh greeting the officers upon his arrival in Bukit Aman to witness the handing over of duties Friday.
Comm Salleh said CID personnel at Bukit Aman used to be mostly involved in planning and coordinating work but now, they had to go to the ground to overcome the manpower shortage.

He had made a request to the Public Services Department for an additional 6,000 people to complement the CID’s present workforce of 5,000.

He said according to their guidelines, an investigating officer (IO) should handle 11 cases a month while a commercial crimes officer, five cases.

”Unfortunately, an IO in the city is burdened with about 11 cases a day,” Comm Salleh said, adding that the IO also needed logistics support such as transportation to enable them to visit the crime scene.

Comm Salleh said while the CID would do its best to solve cases and charge criminals with the help of the Forensic Unit in the shortest period possible, especially those involving murders and robberies, those manning the counters must know how to take down reports.

He said the department would make sure high-profile cases were solved within 14 days.

At yesterday’s event the following were involved in new duties:

Senior Asst Comm I Kamarulzaman Itam handed over his duties as anti-vice, gaming and secret society division chief to former Sentul OCPD, acting Senior Asst Comm II Ayob Mohamed; acting Senior Asst Comm II Ishak Abd Aziz assumed his post as chief of research and planning division in Bukit Aman from Senior Asst Comm II Zainuddin Mohamad, who has retired, while acting Asst Comm Md Salleh Ahmad took over from Asst Comm Ismail Omar as Bukit Aman head of prosecution and legal division.

CID director orders more ops

BY BEH YUEN HUI

KUALA LUMPUR: All state police chiefs have been directed to closely monitor the crime situation in their respective states and increase their efforts to track down criminals ahead of the Chinese New Year celebrations.

Federal CID director Comm Datuk Seri Salleh Mat Som said they had been told to increase operations at entertainment outlets and nightclubs frequented by suspected criminals.

He said intensified operations had helped to curb the activities of many criminals.

He said some had fled to neighbouring countries including Singapore, Thailand and Hong Kong.

Comm Salleh said organised crimes had dropped last year compared to 2002.

“Based on our information, criminals who are still on the loose or remaining members of some busted gangs are planning to regroup and commit crime during the Chinese New Year.

“However, we will continue with our efforts in preventing them from regrouping,” Comm Salleh said at the Federal police headquarters yesterday.

Comm Salleh said that last year, the police solved 56.6% of reported cases, an achievement which was higher than the international rate of 20% set by Interpol.

He said the crime index had dropped for five consecutive years since 1999.

Comments;

This is good news. The national service programme could provide extra manpower.
When will the programme take course?

A safer Malaysia for a safer future.
