Life is a dream for the wise, a game for the fool, a comedy for the rich, a tragedy for the poor. Sholom Aleichem
TAHNIAH!
Anda Berjaya ditawarkan program pembiayaan mymaster.
20hb Allah gerakkan hati aku, bukak portal biasiswa. Free pulak arini kat opis, keje x banyak cam biasa. Dan arini jugak ari last regist. Iktibar buat aku yang selalu cincai2 belajar supaya after this put extra effort on study. Pengajaran untuk aku, noted that in master level, B- is considered FAIL. yang ak neh dengan yakin bkk tgk result, ak tanya kawan2 laen seme takut nak bkk. pastu msg cakap lega. pehal dorang cuak sgt rupa2nya..
Aku baca lanjut pasal mymaster yang da berjaman ak tunggu, x diinform kat emel, x pon anta surat, ak tanya mak aku kat kampong, katanya surat saman PTPT ada la. Ak call bahagian scholar x de yang angkat, nak kata govt da tutup baru pukul 4. Apa dorang neh meeting ke da pakat g minum2 sambil tgu jam punch out. Xde hal ak nak pk. Ak pakai alternatif lain, ak address question as much as I want via email, hopefully tomorrow ill get the feedback.
Apa yang buat ak confuse, tarikh di’extend’ sampai bila, sebab mengikut apa yang tertera sampai 14 hari. It means the date is already expired. Usaha tetap usaha pakai ijtihad hati aku, aku dcide balik puchong mtk tlg mak su malam tu jugak, teman g klinik, pakai xray yang aku buat waktu regist dulu, xde lama mana pun. Mintak doctor juz verify apa patut, buat urine test, blood pressure, n other normal procedures. Aku dah siap2 buat copies untuk maksu mtk verification saksi, principal dia dan maksu sendiri sebagai penjamin aku.
Kira malam tu jugak dalam unsettle confusion mode, I still do the expedient things that most people do in filling the govt form. Aku google mana nak dapatkan setem hasil, sebab aku memang x biasa ngan mende alah tu seme.
Esok pagi dapat reply orang KPT yang tarikh di extend till this 24th June. Kiranya masih berbaki 3 hari dari hari ni. Arini lagi sekali g puchong dengan belikan maksu apa patut, bagi telur, roti dan megi. Dia pun ada cakap bajet bulan ni abes beli baju raya anak2 dia.
21st aku half day, datang awal siapkan keja yang aku dah list down semalam. Kul12.30 aku keluar g uitm, carik lecturer untuk pengesahan. Semalam da amik initial maksu dan cop g.besar. arini cari lecturer sebagai saksi academic aku pulak. Allah mudahkan dalam sibuk, tyme aku pegi prof ada baru lepas interview. Jumpa kawan yg jgak dapat mende neh, dia kata pej hasil ade kat SA. Ak lam ati mujur die gtaw, kalu x dah ke jln duta ak arini. Die bagi hint kat mana, salah tapi tetap hint, ak tanya ety mujur c etty pon biasa pegi, rupanya bukan kat plaza masalam, plaza perangsang.
Kat c2 pon x take time sangat tros ke pos office, jam pej pos pun da nak tutup, de orang bagi aku no turn, cepat 3 no dari no aku, instead of tgu 3 angka belakang, dpt awal ckt.
Lega lepas anta tapi arini ak sacrifice solat zohor. Subhanallah. Apa pun terima kasih ya ALLAH. Engkau mudahkan perjalanan insan kerdil yang memang buta tanpa tunjuk arahMU, yang bodoh tanpa ilmuMU, yang hina tanpa kasih sayangMU.
Betapa kalu Allah x gtaw ak memang sah2 da frust kalu aku bukak tgk tarikh da tamat, lagi tambah nak marah sebab x diinform kat mana2. Biau budak tu terlepas lagi untung ko xyah taja dorang.
Bab bantuan ko amik mudah, tapi bab nak bagi budak tuh terbeban utang taw pulak ko kejar dorang dari xtaw apa2, ko promot kat dia cam haram. At last kene tanggung bunga sampai mati. Nak2 yang baru dapat keje dengan gaji 1.6 K, lepas tu ko tambah2 bunganya, kenyang ko makan riba budak2 neh.
Ko paksa dia bayar dan ugut dorang soh baya, diissue surat mahkamah ko gertak biau takut dorang tanpa tahu status mereka , masih tanam anggur kat kg. kesian pada yang miskin tambah kurang pandai. Untung kat yang kaya. Inilah bayaran dunia. Sedangkan itu tanggungjwab gomen bagi bantuan pada yang x mampu, xperlu la diperdagangkan urusan golongan ini. Kalu nak amik interest sangat pun xyah la sampai 3%.
Sebut bayaran untuk ini aku usaha kehulur hilir x kira minyak, sbb syukur ada kereta.
Kos lain consult dr. untuk medical checkup RM45. Bayar parking hotel cum plaza tuh rm2, pos office parking rm1.50, pos laju rm6, setem hasil rm30. Total rm85.
p/s: keluhan yang lama terbuku di hati.
The Balinese Hindus are a perfect example of good Muslims. That is what troubles me. The Balinese Hindus are what Muslims should be but are not. And I really need to find out why this is so even if it is the last thing I do.
NO HOLDS BARRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
My wife and I spent three weeks in Bali in April this year. We were there to celebrate our 38th wedding anniversary as guests of a very good friend who allowed me to stay in his exquisite villa for free. It would have cost me USD1,100 a night otherwise.
That was after my Australian trip and just before the talk Haris Ibrahim I gave in Bangkok followed by all that drama.
What impressed me most about Bali was the honesty of the people, who are 90% or so Hindu (but very different from Malaysian Hindus). We left all our things including our cash in our room. The staff walked in and out freely and we did not feel any anxiety. In fact, our bedroom did not have any locks but just glass shutters.
I asked one Balinese girl who was giving me a two-hour massage how come the Balinese are so honest.
It is because we believe in karma, she replied.
Oh, I responded, that means whatever you do to others the same thing will happen to you (balasan yang sama).
No, she replied. Whatever you do to others ten times more will happen to you. And that includes both good and bad things.
Whenever we took a taxi the taxi driver would automatically switch on his meter. And they never took the longer route to get where we wanted to get to. It was always short cuts.
Whenever we stopped at the shopping complex to buy our groceries and stuff the taxi driver would switch off the meter and wait, however long it took. So we did not have to pay for ‘down time’.
On one occasion my friend left his Blackberry at Macdonalds. We were halfway back to the villa before he realised he had lost his Blackberry and we suspected he may have left it at Macdonalds, the last pit stop we made.
We asked the driver to turn around and go back to Macdonalds, although we did not really think that his Blackberry would still be there.
But lo and behold, it was still there. Someone had found it on the counter and had handed it to the manager. What a relief it was for my friend who could ill-afford to lose all his data.
There were many other instances regarding the honesty of the Balinese that impressed us immensely. I joked that if I did not yet have any religion and was looking for a religion I would probably become a Balinese Hindu. That’s how impressed I was.
After Bali we went over to Jakarta and suddenly it was another world altogether. Jakarta is predominantly Muslim but you did not feel safe in that city. You felt like you were constantly under siege.
“Why can’t the Muslims in Jakarta be like the Hindus of Bali?” I commented to my wife. I was so impressed with the Balinese Hindus and disgusted with the Jakarta Muslims. And it is the Muslims who cause all the commotion in Bali with the bombings and whatnot.
I would like to believe that Muslims have reduced Islam to a religion of rituals minus the commitment to the ideals of the religion. But then the Balinese are even more ritualistic than the Muslims. In fact, they appear to be constantly in prayer.
I am yet to put my finger on it. There is something about the Balinese version of Hinduism that makes them extremely honest and decent people. But what is it?
I think I am going to go back to Bali and spend some time studying the people there, in particular their religion. I need to find out what it is they are doing right and we are doing wrong.
The Balinese Hindus are a perfect example of good Muslims. That is what troubles me. The Balinese Hindus are what Muslims should be but are not. And I really need to find out why this is so even if it is the last thing I do.
islam x patut dipersalahkan, yang paling penting penganutnya yang benar2 amalkan islam dan kepercayaan pada tuhan yang Esa benar2 dalam diri individu itu yang hanya mampu abide mereka dengan agama mereka.The statement came following Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob’s hint yesterday of a possible hike in the basic grade fuel price as the government desperately aims to cut its hefty subsidy bills.
Signs that the government are preparing for more subsidy cuts had been made clearer when Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin said this morning that the government could not sustain its subsidy cost.
Persoalan kenapa harga minyak sentiasa naik? What it got to do with govt subsidies and all that. I try to figure it out and I found this article on Paultan website regarding hubungkait rege minyak dan subsidies. Encik paul pon dapat mende neh dari website kerajaan.
This fact is based on Economic plan unit, PM department. This is backdated, but to get the real picture, is good to start from the beginning of the story.
According to WTI, in Oct 2004 it reached US$51 and in 2005 it went up to US$67 per barrel. It keeps increasing every year.
Sebab ape pulak asik naik, kt leh tgk dari segi ekonomi ia satu percaturan mudah untuk seme kita paham
1. The existence of a tight market due to the small margin between production (83.0 million barrels per day(bpd)) and demand (82.5 million bpd)
2. High demand for oil by China, India and the United States
3. Uncertainly of supply in some OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries) countries
4. Adverse weather conditions such as Hurricane Emily in Mexico, affecting oil production
5. Speculation on oil prices.
Dan ramai orang selalu tanya kenapa kita negara pengeluar pun kene naikkan harga.
wpon kita negara pengeluar tapi harga pasaran minyak ditentukan oleh DD and SS pasaran antarabangsa.
Bukan kita yang control. Kita juga bukanlah anggota OPEC which has control over market price and these countries set the oil production level. Antara negara yang anggotai OPEC Algeria, Ecuador, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE dan Venezuela. OPEC Basket Price adalah average of the oil price dari semua negara2 ni dan diguna untuk pantau keadaan pasaran minyak dunia.
Dan menurut sumber useconomy.about.com, OPEC price lagi murah berbanding WTI dan Brent Blend coz the oil from some of the countries have higher sulphur content and less useful for making gasoline. Compared to WTI which has low sulphur content, light-weight and excellent properties to make gasoline.
Ada pendapat kata kita pakai Brent Oil, minyak ni mahal dari OPEC dan minyak kita banyak dieksport keluar kerana berkualiti tinggi. secara logic, untung dari eksport tu sepatutnya mampu tampung sabsidi.
Kalau petroleum naik harga, harga diesel, petrol dan LPG gas memasak pon turut naik. in turn semua harga di pasaran terutama barang2 keperluan lain turut sama naik.
Menurut report tu lagi, govt memastikan harga minyak kita murah dari negara jiran adalah dengan pengecualian cukai jualan dan sediakan subsidi.
Subsidi ni mampu merendahkan kos operasi nelayan dan operator kenderaan sungai di sabah Sarawak.
Jom kita ke arithmetic process untuk proses pemahaman selanjutnya (ak dulu cita2 nak jadi cikgu matematik)
Petroleum Products Cost + Operational Costs + Margin for Distributors of Petroleum Products + Commission for Owners of Petrol Stations + Sales Tax – Subsidies = Retail Price
Subsidi dibayar kepada pengeluar dan penjual. Nilainya ditentukan oleh State of Govt finances.
Betul katanya kalau harga minyak di pasaran global naik maka akan menambah pendapatan negara pengeksport. Tapi x bijak la kalau semua kerajaan pakai untuk tampung sabsidi minyak. Tapi for short term aje .. medium term kenaikan harga ni akan juga bagi kesan pada ekonomi dunia. Yang ni ak x paham secara zahir, dah timbul persoalan kat aku pulak…emphh
Tambahan pula negara kita juga kene import untuk memenuhi keperluan domestic.. ni maksudnya negara xleh tampung keperluan rakyat jadi kene import.
Impact of subsidies on govt finance, tanpa sabsidi fiscal deficit boleh dikurangkan which in turn can reduce its borrowings. Katanya contributions by Petronas hanya cukup untuk tampung fuel subsidies.
If the rakyat and Government can share the cost of rising fuel prices, thus reducing the need for subsidies, a part of the contributions from PETRONAS can instead be directed to generate new sources of income.
Atas sebab kenaikan pasaran dunia maka kerajaan terpaksa menaikkan sabsidi dan tax to match the rise in product cost.
Khairy (si bijak) said on yesterday report, govt should not raise the oil price due to the rakyat or voters are now killing to cope with increasing food price.
He said govt should focus instead on saving management cost, increasing productivity and efficiency before cutting fuel subsidy.
Kat sini kita rujuk pada ekuiti negara yang jumlah kasarnya mampu tampung sabsidi. Selain tu banyak lagi sumber2 lain yang boleh tampung beban sabsidi, ntah mana dibazirkan pon kita x tau. Jadi sebagai rakyat marhaen memang terhimpit dengan kenaikan minyak yang menurut law of supply semua barang keperluan asas turut akan berganjak naik, tak sikit, banyak.
Only one who is really sure with proof knows.
sekian laporan audit negara. abeh la pitih tiap kali panah enjin keto! nok tubek mano tuuu? nok perabih pitih kow?
wacana perdana di kelantan yang da lama tapi sikit menjawab soal subsidy.
Dialah pemberi kesegaran, pemberi kesihatan, dan yang maha mencukupi.
Dia pencipta, pemberi rezeki, yang memberi hidup dan yang kuasa mematikan
“Ya Allah, kami berlindung dari rasa susah hati dan sedih, sikap lemah dan malas, bakhil, pengecut, tekanan hutang dan kejahatan orang2 yang jahat.”
Bagi generasi umat manusia yang sedang banyak menghidap penyakit kejiwaan seperti masa ini, hendaklah rajin mendatangi masjid, merapatkan keningnya di atas lantai tempat sujud
Jika anda diliputi ketakutan, dihimpit sedih, dicekik risau, segeralah bangkit untuk sembahyang nescaya jiwa akan kembali tenang. Sembahyang merupakan penyejuk hati dan penyebab bahagia bagi Rasul.
Jangan berdukacita sebab ada al-Quran, ada doa, ada sembahyang, ada sedekah, ada perbuatan baik dan ada amalan yang memberi manfaat.
Jangan berdukacita dan jangan sekali2 menyerah kepada kesedihan dan tidak melakukan sebarang kegiatan.
Sembahyanglah … bertasbihlah… bacalah… menulislah…bekerjalah…terimalah tamu…merenunglah…
Dan Tuhan kamu berfirman” ‘ Berdoalah kamu kepadaKu nescaya Aku perkenankan doa permohonan Kamu.” (Surah Al-Mukmin:60)
Jalan2 merintis kembara Allah
Hadis kudsi :
"Barangsiapa buat 10 kebaikan, Aku akan balas 10 x ganda bahkan lebih, barangsiapa yang buat nista akan menerima balasan setimpal atau Aku ampunkan dia, siapa yang menuju padaku sejengkal, aku maju padanya sehasta, siapa mendekatkan diri padaKu sehasta, Aku dekat sedepa, siapa datang padaKu berjalan, Aku datang padanya berlari, barangsiapa mengadap Daku dengan dosa sepenuh lembah bumi tapi dia tidak menyekutukanKu dengan sebarang sesuatu apa pun maka Aku sambut dengan sebanyak dosanya itu."
maha suci Allah pentadbir, pemilik dunia akhirat.
referring to the hadis kudsi quoted above, it pictures how amazing Allah's love towards His creatures,notwithstanding your full of sins. this is the beauty of God. so, remember that you're not alone when you are in burden of trouble, all you need to do is repent and full submit to only HIM.
