Orang ikhlas itu selalu Tertindas?

ORANG IKHLAS ITU TERTINDAS? Jika kita memberi kebaikan kepada seseorang,
kebaikan itu akan dibalas walaupun yang membalasnya bukan orang yang kita
berikan kebaikan itu. Hakikat ini mengingatkan saya kepada satu perbualan
yang berlaku sewaktu saya mengendalikan program latihan beberapa tahun lalu
di sebuah organisasi.
"Saya tidak mempunyai apa-apa harapan lagi pada organisasi ini," kata
seorang kakak berterus-terang.
"Mengapa?" balas saya.
"Organisasi ini dipenuhi oleh kaki bodek dan kaki ampu. Saya terseksa
bekerja secara ikhlas di sini. Tidak pernah dihargai, tidak ada ganjaran
yang wajar. Saya bukannya orang yang bermuka-muka. Tak pandai saya nak
ampu-ampu orang atas, Fokus saya kepada kerja sahaja."
Kakak itu sebenarnya adalah peserta program yang paling senior. Telah
berpuluh tahun bekerja dalam organisasi tersebut. Itu adalah kali terakhir
dia mengikuti program latihan. Enam bulan lagi dia akan bersara. Kesempatan
yang diberikan kepadanya dalam sesi memperkenalkan diri itu telah
digunakannya sepenuhnya untuk meluahkan rasa kecewa dan marahnya sepanjang
berkhidmat di situ. Sungguh, dia kecewa sekali. Siapa tidak marah, jika
bekerja secara ikhlas dan gigih tetapi tidak pernah dinaikkan pangkat atau
mendapat kenaikan gaji?
Sewaktu rehat, sambil minum-minum dan berbual santai saya bertanya
kepadanya, "kakak punya berapa orang anak?"
Sengaja saya bertanya soal-soal "di luar kotak" agar ketegangan dalam sesi
sebelumnya dapat diredakan.
"Oh ramai encik…"
"Bagaimana dengan anak-anak kakak?"
Wah, saya lihat dia begitu ceria apabila mula menceritakan tentang
anak-anaknya. Boleh dikatakan semua anak-anaknya berjaya dalam profesion
masing-masing. Ada yang menjadi doktor, jurutera, pensyarah dan sebagainya.
Malah seorang anaknya telah menjadi hafiz.
"Kakak, boleh saya bertanya?"
"Tanyalah encik…" ujar kakak itu sambil tersenyum. Mendung di wajahnya
sudah berlalu. Dia begitu teruja bila bercerita tentang anak-anaknya.
Memang, semua anak-anaknya menjadi.
"Jika kakak diberi pilihan, antara anak-anak yang "menjadi" dengan naik
gaji, mana yang kakak pilih?"
Belum sempat dia menjawab, saya bertanya lagi, "antara kakak naik pangkat
dengan anak-anak berjaya dalam karier mereka, mana yang kakak pilih?"
Dengan cepat kakak itu menjawab, "hati ibu encik… tentulah saya pilih
anak-anak saya menjadi walaupun tidak naik gaji atau dapat pangkat.
Anak-anak adalah harta kita yang paling berharga!"
Saya tersenyum. Hati ibu, begitulah semestinya.
"Kakak, sebenarnya keikhlasan dan kegigihan kakak bekerja dalam organisasi
ini telah mendapat ganjaran…" kata saya perlahan. Hampir berbisik.
"Maksud encik?"
"Allah telah membalas dengan ganjaran yang lebih baik dan lebih kakak lebih
sukai. Bila kakak ikhlas bekerja dalam organisasi ini, Allah berikan kepada
kakak anak-anak yang menjadi."
"Tidak pernah saya terfikir begitu encik…"
"Allah Maha Berkuasa. Ada kalanya takdir dan perbuatan-Nya terlalu misteri
dan rahsia untuk dijangkau oleh pemikiran kita. Tetapi yakinlah what you
give, you get back. Itu hukum sunatullah dalam hubungan sesama manusia.
Kebaikan yang kita buat akan kembali kepada kita. Yakinlah."
"Walaupun bukan daripada seseorang atau sesuatu pihak yang kita berikan
kebaikan itu?"
"Maksud kakak?"
"Macam ni, saya buat kebaikan kepada organisasi tempat saya bekerja, tapi
Allah berikan kebaikan kepada keluarga. Pembalasan Allah bukan di tempat
saya bekerja, sebaliknya diberikan dalam keluarga saya. Begitukah encik?"
"Itulah yang saya katakan tadi, takdir Allah kekadang terlalu misteri.
Tetapi ketetapannya mutlak dan muktamad, siapa yang memberi kebaikan akan
dibalas dengan kebaikan. Dalam istilah biasa itu dipanggil golden rule!"
Kakak itu termenung. Mungkin memikirkan pertalian dan kaitan antara apa
yang berlaku dalam organisasi dengan familinya.
"Metafora atau analoginya begini. Katalah kita sedang memandu di satu jalan
yang mempunyai dua atau tiga lorong. Penuh sesak. Tiba-tiba sebuah kereta
yang tersalah lorong di sebelah memberi isyarat untuk masuk ke lorong kita.
Kerana simpati melihat dia terkial-kial memberi isyarat, kita pun beralah,
lalu memberi laluan untuk kereta itu masuk di hadapan kita…"
Saya berhenti seketika mengambil nafas sambil mencari reaksi. Saya lihat
kakak itu mendengar penuh minat. Dia meneliti metafora yang saya sampaikan
dengan begitu teliti.
"Kemudian kita terus memandu ke hadapan. Mungkin sejam kemudian atau
setelah berpuluh-puluh kilometer, tiba-tiba kita pula yang tersalah lorong.
Kita pula yang memberi lampu isyarat untuk masuk ke lorong sebelah. Soalnya
logikkah kalau kita mengharapkan kereta yang kita bantu sebelumnya memberi
laluan untuk kita?"
Kakak itu tersenyum dan berkata, "tak logik encik. Kereta yang kita bantu
tadi entah ke mana perginya."
"Tapi ada tak kereta lain yang simpati dan memberi laluan untuk kita?'
"Pasti ada! Insya-Allah."
"Ya, begitulah. Padahal kereta itu tidak pernah sekali pun kita tolong.
Tetapi Allahlah yang menggerakkan hati pemandunya untuk memberi laluan
kepada kita. Orang yang kita beri kebaikan, tidak ada di situ untuk
membalas kebaikan kita… Tetapi Allah menggerakkan hati orang lain, yang
tidak pernah merasa kebaikan kita untuk membalas kebaikan kita tadi."
"Subhanallah!"
"Begitu dalam litar di jalan raya dan begitu jualah litar dalam kehidupan
manusia. Kita buat baik kepada A, tetapi kerap kali bukan A yang membalas
kebaikan kita tetapi B atau C atau D atau lain-lainnya yang membalasnya.
Inilah hakikat yang berlaku dalam kehidupan ini."
"Kita tidak boleh kecewa bila keikhlasan kita dipersiakan?" tanya kakak itu
lagi. Lebih kepada satu respons minta diiyakan.
"Kakak, ikhlas sebenar tidak pinta dibalas. Tetapi Allah Maha Kaya dan Maha
Pengasih, siapa yang ikhlas akan diberi ganjaran walaupun mereka tidak
memintanya kerana setiap kebaikan itu akan dikembalikan kepada orang yang
melakukannya. Ia umpama bola yang dibaling ke dinding, akan melantun semula
kepada pembalingnya!"
"Selalunya saya dengar, orang ikhlas akan dibalas di akhirat."
"Itulah balasan yang lebih baik dan kekal. Tetapi saya katakan tadi, Allah
Maha kaya, Allah mahu dan mampu membalas keikhlasan hamba-Nya di dunia
lagi."
"Maksud encik?"
"Orang yang ikhlas akan diberi ketenangan dan kebahagiaan dalam hidup.
Anak-anak yang soleh dan solehah. Isteri yang taat atau suami yang setia.
Dan paling penting… hati yang sejahtera. Inilah kekayaan dan kelebihan yang
lebih utama daripada pangkat, gaji dan jawatan."
"Jadi orang ikhlas akan terus ditindas, tidak dapat kenaikan pangkat atau
gaji? Bukan apa, saya terfikir kenapa nasib kaki ampu dan kaki bodek lebih
baik dalam organisasi. Mereka dapat naik pangkat!"
Giliran saya pula tersenyum.
"Tidak ada kebaikan yang akan kita dapat melalui jalan yang salah.
Percayalah, kalau benar mereka kaki ampu dan bodek sahaja… pangkat yang
mereka dapat akan menyebabkan mereka melarat. Gaji naik, tetapi ketenangan
hati menurun. Ingat apa yang saya kata tadi, what you give you get back…
Golden rule itu bukan untuk kebaikan sahaja, tetapi untuk kejahatan juga.
Kalau kita berikan kejahatan, kejahatan itu akan kembali semula kepada
kita. Kaki ampu, mungkin akan dapat anak yang pandai bermuka-muka. Kaki
bodek mungkin dibalas dengan isteri yang berpura-pura!" terang saya panjang
lebar.
"Jadi apa yang harus saya lakukan dengan baki masa perkhidmatan yang
tinggal tidak beberapa bulan lagi ni?"
"Bekerjalah dengan gigih. Walaupun mungkin bos tidak melihatnya, tetapi
Allah Maha Melihat. Bekerja itu satu ibadah. God is our "ceo", kata orang
sekarang. Insya-Allah, satu hari nanti manusia juga akan diperlihatkan oleh
Allah tentang keikhlasan manusia yang lain. Jangan berhenti memberi
kebaikan hanya kerana tidak dapat penghargaan…"
"Maksud encik?"
"Jangan mengharap terima kasih daripada manusia atas kebaikan yang kita
buat kepadanya."
"Kenapa?"
"Kita akan sakit jiwa!"
"Kenapa?"
"Kerana umumnya manusia tidak pandai berterima kasih. Lihatlah, kalau
kepada Allah yang Maha Memberi pun manusia tidak pandai bersyukur dan
berterima kasih, apalagi kepada manusia yang pemberiannya terbatas dan
berkala. Sedikit sekali daripada manusia yang bersyukur," balas saya
mengulangi apa yang maktub dalam Al Quran.
"Tetapi Allah tidak berhenti memberi… " kata kakak itu perlahan.
"Walaupun manusia tidak berterima kasih kepada-Nya. Sekalipun kepada yang
derhaka dan kafir, tetapi Allah terus memberi… Justeru siapa kita yang
tergamak berhenti memberi hanya kerana tidak mendapat penghargaan dan
ucapan terima kasih?"
"Ah, kita terlalu ego…"
Dan itulah kesimpulan perbualan yang saya kira sangat bermakna dan besar
impaknya dalam hidup saya. Saya terasa "diperingatkan" semasa memberi
peringatan kerana pada hakikatnya saya juga tidak terlepas daripada
lintasan hati oleh satu pertanyaan… orang ikhlas tertindas?

Starbuck dan Coffe Beans HARAM ??

Assalamualaikum SWT,
Sejak masyarakat umum pandai menggunakan email, telah acap kali email yg
palsu disebarkan dan didakwa benar. Disebabkan kemudahan menggunakan email,
dengan satu click 'forward' and boleh menyebarkan berita itu kepada beribu2
penerima, maka amat cepatlah sesuatu berita itu tersebar.

Jika tuan-puan masih ingat, satu email berkaitan dengan mimpi penjaga makan
Nabi Muhammad SAW pernah tersebar, kononnya sesiapa yg menyebarkannya akan
memperolehi rahmat dan sesiapa yang tidak akan ditimpa bencana. Tidak
berhenti disitu sahaja, ada juga email berkaitan kedai itu dan itu, antara
yang pernah dihebohkan adalah (kedai mamak, nasi lemak antarabangsa, etc).
Ada juga yang berkaitan produk (mee hoon , kuey teow, daging burger, ayam
KFC, etc).

Adakah IMAN + AKAL masyarakat dewasa ini terlalu lemah untuk menentukan
yang haq dan yang batil. Tidak dinafikan ada perkara yang kabur (grey
area), tapi disitulah perlunya kita menyelidikinya. Bertanya kepada yang
berilmu atau yang berkuasa. Kepada yang menulis dan menyebarkan berita yang
benar untuk tujuan menjaga kesucian agama, saya doakan Allah merahmati
kamu.

Bagi yang menerima email yang berkenaan janganlah terlalu GHAIRAH untuk
meng'forward' email2 yang belum sahih kepada 'mailing list' kamu. Apa yang
kamu sebarkan mungkin FITNAH. Dan janganlah kita menyuburkan lagi budaya
FITNAH di akhir zaman ini.

Jika anda berkeupayaan untuk memastikan kebenaran berita itu, silalah
berbuat demikian. Jika terbukti benar, sebarkanlah, semoga Allah merahmati
anda. Jika palsu, hentikan penyebaran dan sedarkan orang yg menghantarkan
kepada anda. Jika anda tiada upaya untuk memeriksa berita itu, baca dan
simpan sajalah untuk anda.

Narrated Anas:

The climate of Medina did not suit some people, so the Prophet ordered them
to follow his shepherd, i.e. his camels, and drink their milk and urine (as
a medicine). So they followed the shepherd that is the camels and drank
their milk and urine till their bodies became healthy. Then they killed the
shepherd and drove away the camels. When the news reached the Prophet he
sent some people in their pursuit. When they were brought, he cut their
hands and feet and their eyes were branded with heated pieces of iron.

Akan Pisang Berbuah Dua Kali

Peribahasa melayu "takkan pisang berbuah dua kali" dah tak boleh pakai.
Sila baca dibawah.

Lepas ni jumpa "kucing bertanduk" pulak ye...

January 24, 2010 17:04 PM




Pisang Berbuah Dua Kali


LANGKAWI, 24 Jan (Bernama) - Seperti perumpamaan "Pisang tak akan berbuah dua kali", tapi lain
pula berlaku di projek tanaman pisang berangan di kawasan FELCRA Teluk Yu, Ayer Hangat Langkawi
apabila sepohon pokok pisang berbuah dua kali.

"Saya terperanjat apabila mendapati sepohon pokok pisang yang telah ditebang tiga minggu lepas
mengeluarkan semula jantung bersama lapan sikat pisang dari bekas tunggul yang ditebang," kata
seorang pekebun Abu Bakar Hashim, 46, dari Kampung Ewa kepada Bernama di sini pada Ahad.

Katanya sebelum itu, setandan pisang dengan enam sikat telah diambil tiga minggu lepas,
bagaimanapun beliau tidak ke kawasan pokok pisang itu selepas dari tarikh itu sehingga keanehan
disedari apabila bekas tunggul yang ditebang mengeluarkan jantung dan buahnya sejak tiga hari
lepas.

Abu Bakar antara 20 peserta projek tanaman pisang sebagai tanaman kontan bersama getah
membabitkan keluasan keseluruhan melebihi 39 hektar.

Ini adalah julung kali saya melihat pokok pisang berbuah dua kali, ini adalah kekuasaan Allah,
kata Abu Bakar.

Kejadian aneh itu turut mendapat perhatian ramai antaranya ketua projek tanaman pisang, Yum
Othman yang terkejut dengan berita itu.

"Sepanjang hayat saya tidak pernah melihat keanehan saperti itu," katanya.

Word of Connection

Word of Connection
To sum up, linking devices, in my view, serve to raise the standard of
written as well as spoken English and support the fluency and
native-likeness of any verbal discourse. (Irena Hulková)

Linking words are essential for your writing to be natural and clear. (Viv
Quarry)

Cohesive devices are crucial in writing, for they turn separate clauses,
sentences, and paragraphs into connected prose, signalling the
relationships between ideas, and making obvious the thread of meaning the
writer is trying to communicate. (Vivian Zamel)

... they can help to make clear the structure of what is being said; they
can indicate what speakers think about what they are saying or what others
have said. (Michael Swan)

The most frequent words of connection are:

Three ways to beat CNY traffic jams to Kota Baru

Three ways to beat CNY traffic jams to Kota Baru

KUALA LUMPUR: The Public Works Department has identified several
alternative
roads for motorists heading towards Kota Baru to beat the traffic
congestion
during the Chinese New Year holiday.

The department in a statement yesterday said motorists could use three
alternative roads.

The first route is from Bentong heading towards Kota Baru through Kuala
Lipis.

Motorists are advised to exit Karak Highway through Exit 8, turn into
Kampung Chinta Manis Junction (Exit 813A) and head towards Federal Road
1498.

From there, they should head towards Felda Mempaga Jaya.

From Felda Mempaga, motorists can take the T-junction heading towards Felda
Klau, head straight to Kampung Sungai Ruan through State Road C149 before
heading back into Federal Road 8 towards Kota Baru through Kuala Lipis.

Another alternative road from Kuala Krai to Kota Baru is from Federal Road
8. Head into State Road (D225) at Kampung Sungai Peria, Kuala Krai (Seksyen
311) to Simpang Tiga Pahi.

From Simpang Tiga Pahi, head into Guchil and back into Federal Road 8 to
Kota Baru.

The third alternative road from Kuala Krai to Kota Baru is through Federal
Road 8 into State Road D233 at Bandar Krai.

From Bandar Krai, motorists should head into the Guchil junction and turn
back into Federal Road 8 heading towards Kota Baru.

The silent 'H' in French

This is apparently a true but hilarious story.

Aaah, zese French.......zey give you a run for your money!

When Charles De Gaulle decided to retire from public life, the American
ambassador and his wife threw a gala dinner party in his honor.

At the dinner table the Ambassador's wife was talking with Madame De
Gaulle.

"Your husband has been such a prominent public figure, such a presence on
the French and International scene for so many years! How quiet retirement
will seem in comparison. What are you most looking forward to in these
retirement years?"

"A penis," replied Madame De Gaulle.

A huge hush fell over the table. Everyone heard her answer...and no one
knew
what to say next. Finally, Le Grand Charles leaned over to his wife and
said, "Ma cherie, I believe zee Americans pronounce zat word, 'appiness."

The Store

The Husband Store....

A store that sells husbands has just opened in New York City, where any
woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance
is a description of how the store operates. You may visit the store ONLY
ONCE!!!

You may choose any man from a particular floor, or you may choose to go up
a floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the Building! So, a
woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband…

On the first floor the sign on the door reads:

Floor 1 - These men have jobs and love the Lord.

The second floor sign reads:

Floor 2 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, and love kids.

The third floor sign reads:

Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, and are extremely
good looking..

"Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the fourth floor and sign reads:

Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, are drop-dead good
looking and help with the housework.

"Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!"
Still, she goes to the fifth floor and sign reads:

Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, are drop-dead
gorgeous, help with the housework, and have a strong romantic streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor and the sign
reads:

Floor 6 - You are visitor 4,363,012 to this floor. There are no men on this
floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to
please.

Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store. Watch your step as you exit
the building, and have a nice day!

Double Time

It has been very very long time, since i last jotted down my thoughts. Many things has been happening in 2009 and it is now 2010. To make it easey i'll write in in point form, just like what Tun Mahathir does.

1. I married in 2009, it was one of the single biggest steps in my life. In anyone life's infact.
2. I (and my spouse) bought a house. Another major commitments in anyone's life.
3. My wife conceived our child, and it is now 9 weeks old. Another major commitments.

I noticed that time flies double time after you get married. It seems that there are so much things to do and there is so little time. Weekends flies just like a blink of an eye. Now i would understand why my friends who married before me, suddenly became 'quiet'....

And for tonight, i'm trying to rescue one of my harddisk which has gone 'kong'. Pray for me!!

Syabas Harimau Malaya!!

Al Fatihah

Dear Readers,
Please recite Al-Fatihah to the late my friends mother who passed away on Sunday, 6th December 2009.

You can read more about it here...

Update

...of no update.

Single Core vs Dual Cores

yeahh.... i've been lazy to update my blog lately. Well lazy is not really the right word, but 'time constraint' is.

I really noticed that after getting married, things aren't the same anymore. Anyone married can vouch for it. If last time i have 24 hours to spend on myself, now i have to divide it by two. Well its not really a bad thing, coz sometimes things are happened by the power of two. Think about single core processor versus dual cores.

Some things happened faster because 2 persons are doing it, but the time is divided by two because both have to do it.

hmmmm... i wonder what would those guys with quad cores handle his time. If you know what i mean.

Yo Persian why do you hate Ahmadinejad??

As an outsider, i thought Ahmad (Ahmadinejad) is one of role model of Islamic leader. He is the total opposite Al Saud other Emirati Sheikh and other Islamic-Secular President and Prime Minister.

The closest example would be the Chief Minister of the 'poor' state Kelantan.

Seeing the post-election riot and civil unrest in Islamic state of Iran, cast that big question in my head. Why hate him?

Does The US and his allied successfully infiltrate the mindset of Yuppy (young and professional) Persian? Is it a masterplanned that have been crafted years ago, that i has gone deep into the blood and veins of this youngsters.

If Iran becomes weak, Islam becomes weak too. Some anti-Syiah people may condemn for this statement. But think about it, can we rely on Sunni government such as Al Saud and his Emirati Sheikh.

Firman Allah

O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger, and those charged with authority among you. If ye differ in anything among yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger, if ye do believe in Allah and the Last Day: That is best, and most suitable for final determination.
(4:59)

Ibn `Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: The Prophet (PBUH) said, "It is obligatory upon a Muslim to listen (to the ruler) and obey whether he likes it or not, except when he is ordered to do a sinful thing; in such case, there is no obligation to listen or to obey.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

enuff said. i'm off to sleep.

The Court Has Spoken

Salam,
The High Court has ruled out YB Nizar is the legitimate MB of Perak. Zambry and all his illegal exco can pack up their stuff and move out from Bagunan Perak Darul Ridzuan ASAP (read now), this is because the court has also ruled out their request for 'stay pending appeal'. If he is still in the office tomorrow, he is trespassing a government (PR) property and also contempt of court.

This is another classic example of case 'senjata makan tuan'. I'm puzzled how did all the 'intelligent' UMNO conspirators could overlook the plan and not studied thoroughly 'Undang2 Tubuh Perak'. They are so anxious to overtake the government once they have successfully 'convert' the 3 stooges. They forget to analyze the requirements of removing present MB from the office. This is the reason why Nizar won. He had never resigned, remember his 'Patik Mohon Derhaka' request to the Sultan of Perak. He doesn't wan't to resign, and no one can removed him except the State Assembly.

I always have a high respect to the Royal House, and i strongly believed in the motto 'Raja Payung Rakyat'. Yes, i also agreed with Raja Nazrin comments, Royal Institution is aboved politic, having said so, let the people of Perak decides their government. Let it be another elections if it is the best way to decide.

Stop giving excuse elections cost money. Of course it does, so do the PKFTZ, National Services, F1, National Broadband Project, etc, etc. Why afraid to invest on rakyat's rights???

Final Piala FA :: Kelantan vs Selangor ::

Tonight me and 5 other Red Warriors gonna march to Stadium Putra Bukit Jalil. Jimi, Payeik, Kimi, Tupac and Piye ( Perakian cum Kelantanese) has been waiting for the day, since Kelantan won the match with N9. Jimi has been kind enough to get us the tickets from KB, since ticket in KL is only sold in Stadium Shah Alam. 

This event is not only a football match, what i'm looking forward is the event to hang out with my bestest friend. When you getting married, there are a lot of commitments that gonna eat up all your time. Sometimes you just have to find an excuse to hang out with your friends. Don't misinterpret it as 'queen controls', it does happen. 

So who wanna miss a good football Final match, with hanging out with their bestfriend and be boys again???

Shame on UMNO Youth

KJ has won UMNO Youth Chief contest.

UMNO really never learned from its mistakes. This year assembly slogan 'UMNO Transformation' can be thrown in a garbage bins, based on that results. A huge let down, not to the pure UMNO Fighters, but to thousands if not millions Malaysian who want UMNO to change.

I never really followed UMNO election results, but today is different. The result of hot seat of Youth Chief is something that many people wants to follow. From Radio Bernama, i listened to the telecast. It was estimated the results will be out by 9PM. Then after sending my father in-law to LCCT at 9.30, there was still no results. Back to my house at Putrajaya at 10PM, results for Wanita Chief was announced, Shahrizat won. As expected.

Then i switched on Astro Awani, where they have live telecast of the assembly. Still i patiently wait for the results. Then came the results for Puteri Wing, ok whatever i'm not interested. Then at about 11 something came the results for UMNO Youth. I saw Khairy sitting at the stage, i got a bad feeling already, where is Mukhriz. Then when the Chairman announce Khairy win, i feel devastated.

Yes why should i feel that way, when i'm not an UMNO member at all. Wrong, i'm still Malay and Muslim. UMNO is a Malay(Muslim) party. Who helms it dictated my lives and your lives directly. How could someone with so many misdeed won. He even found guilty by the disciplinary board a few days before, but was let off just with a warning (double standard??). So now you have someone who were guilty of corruption (i guess) but win the party polls. So did he bought the votes.

Firstly he should have been barred from contesting when he was found guilty, just like Ali Rustam. I don't really understand Kudin (Tengku) explainations, but i guess he was saying that the magnitude (read money) of KJ case is less than Ali, so thats why he was just been given warning.

I work for a oil and gas MNC. One of the pillars of this company is controls and integrity. Punishment for falsifying a record can go up to separation. Regardless if you lied for 10 ringgit (meal claims) or a few thousand ringgit. There is a case an employee were separated for a mere few ringgits. So now how can UMNO, the biggest party in Malaysia have a double standard for the same offences. This is the kind of things that make many Young Professionals (including me), who have a sane mind so dispise with UMNO.

Well maybe i was wrong, maybe KJ is not a bad boy after all. Maybe Tun Mahathir was wrong, maybe RPK was wrong, maybe a millions of Malaysian who vote for PR was wrong. Who knows? only Allah Almighty knows.

As the youth celebrate KJ win with so much joy, like Malaysia winning Thomas Cup (i wish) they sang 'Inilah Barisan Kita'. Shame on each and every face of malay youth, my own kind, who betray their own people for money. Well i may be wrong again right. The tribe has spoken, lets wait and see how KJ will lead this pack of tribesmen.

Deep down in my heart, i wish Allah show em' the right path. I pray that they will fight and struggle for the ummah in Malaysia. May Allah answer my prayer. Ameen.

Home Sweet Home

Salam,
By this time, all the the dust has settled down. My sweet Yana, is now my legally wedded wife. All the hustle bustle of the weddings has gone. The damage (read money) is done...hehehhe.

If some of you wondering how did the wedding ceremonies went on, i'll summed it in one word 'perfectly'. I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and everyone who have involved in the weddings, especially my beloved parent. Without their helps and others, it is impossible for me to brave the big day.

If you guys would like to get a glimpse of that day, browse to www.photoaura.net or to Yana or My facebook photos.

Now a new chapter has begun. A different kind of life, that promised everything. Asked those who have married, they will know. One of my friends, told me that marriage is a mystery, there is no one rules that fits all. The journey will be different for everyone, but alas i beleived as long as the foundations is based on Islam, everything should be ok.

P18 is now my new home. It's my wife's quaters. It's a semi-D house and its really big for the two of us. We will get our own house, when we have recovered from the damages (above).hehehe. Below is googlemap of our hse, so that you know where to head, when youre coming here.

Gotta go, my wifey is calling.

One more week to go....

Jumaat, Sabtu, Ahad, Isnin, Selasa, Rabu, Khamis , Jumaat.

New beginnings.

I received a lot of birthday wish on my FB, sms, card, sametime and face to face. I thank all the sender for their sincere wish. I wish good life to all of you.

My dear sister, who were back in Malaysia on that time, bought me this wonderful cake (?), or whatever it is called in Starbucks.

Its sweet, creamy, soft, good looking and very delicious, indeed. You guys should buy this thing for your girlfriend, i'm sure they will melt. :D

In Less than a month

In less a month i will crossover.

Crossover from bachelorhood to familyhood.
Crossover from a life without meaning to a life full of responsibilities.
Crossover from a loneliness to happiness.
Crossover from a total freedom to a freedom without boundaries.
Crossover from a comfort zone to a uncharted territory.
Crossover from a member to a leader.
Crossover to many great/mysterious/happy/unhappy things...

All in a month time. Dear Allah guide me to righteous path. Ih Dinas Sira tol Mustakim.

Tribute to Payeik

My bestest friend, Payeik. A friend who i met 24 years ago at Tadika Raja Dewa and remain my best friend till today is going to puts an end to his bachelor days in a week time.

At this time, he still hanging out at my place. Talking on his handphone with his fiance (i hope...gagagaga). He always spend his time here, besides helping to finish my leftover foods and chocs on my fridge he also help to mess my already messed house, 'pow' my ciggy and of course hijacked my pc. Despite that i still enjoy his company.

Anyway, next Wednesday is his Akad Nikah ceremony and i'll be there. Of course life will be different after that, i'm sure i'm gonna see 'less' of him over here, although he is also not sure about it.... hehhehe funny.

"Here is a toast to Payeik, one of the last bachelor (besides me) who are brave enough to cross over to marriagedom....cheers"
