The Stock Market and You

All because of money! You will sit there for hours, oblivious about what's happening outside, submitting yourself to the screen and the figures. You may be tired and you couldn't be bothered, a quick run to the coffee shop next door will see you in the company of many others who are like you, money minded, losing will be a bad day winning will bring some smiles. The power of money brings greed, it brings materialism, breeds hatred, jealousy, pomposity, pride and drive many to forsake integrity and humbleness. This is the real thing the world over, whether bullish, bearish or otherwise, the stock market dictates economies for nations on this planet Earth. And without you, things won't work! You are in it for the love of money and more money! Called what you may, trading, gambling, excitement, hobby, a past time income, I will sum it up as GREED, the greed for more money!

Fear and You

Fear mongering is about making you shrink into your cocoons. The Inspector General of Police was dead serious about people spreading unfounded rumours. Rumours can create fear and havoc and sow the seeds of discord amongst people and communities. A young politician questioned by the authorities was found dead mysteriously. Sad and strange!
And just now I heard about this new political party they called PARTY CINTA MALAYSIA...to me in Sarawak it matters when things move so fast in KL. Like a game of poker, politics comes in all forms, in all norms, styles and sometimes disguised to win minds, destroy thoughts, instill ideologies, even for racial extermination. I guess we all need to be on guard. Honour the 1Malaysia concept, please!

Internet Dictates

What books did to the minds, the internet has taken its place to infiltrate your thoughts. Chairman Mao Tse Tung wrote his thoughts in a book that materialized in modern China today. The book is forgotten, the internet creeps in. Bill Gates turned the internet around so fast that information can now be retrieved with a click. The whole world went crazy, a phenomenal effect! It has indeed changed people and the way they think. How blessed we are and how disastrous too to mankind. Osama bin Laden uses the internet when trying to match the power and might of the Americans. It produced a lethal effect in the 9/11 attack.
Today, no government can function smoothly without the communicative prowess of the internet. If the North Korean regime keeps it away from their people making the whole world laugh in disgust, it would not take long for the internet to break the iron curtain.
Ironically, we now got such stuff as internet sex, internet wedding, internet medicine, you name it, you have it! Even smell is dished out through internet..what a wonder in the atoms? It is dictating the way people think the world over. Its power is enormous, we are made of it, trillions...wow, read my thoughts!

Bahasa Malaysia Ridiculed

Bahasa Malaysia is the national language all Malaysians must be proud of. Lately, it has caught some attention in the educational arena and some quarters took the opportunity to ridicule the language. This was what I got through my email and it made me laugh alright!

QUOTE
Why Malaysian Government insists on using English for math and science?

This is because the whole world uses the language as an information and/or technology language. How dangerous it will be if we try to use Bahasa, especially in school. See example below:-

Hardware = barangkeras

Software = baranglembut

Joystick = batang gembira

Plug and Play = cucuk dan main

Port = lubang

Server = pelayan

Client = pelanggan

Try to translate this:

ENGLISH:

That server gives a plug and play service to the client using either hardware or software joystick. The joystick goes into the port of the client.

Now in BAHASA:

Pelayan itu memberi pelanggannya layanan cucuk dan main dengan menggunakan batang gembira jenis keras atau lembut. Batang gembira itu akan dimasukkan ke dalam lubang pelanggan.

Now you know...WHY...UNQUOTE
