For money..yes…you can screw us malaysian…. WTH!

One of the reason that I seldom read Malaysia locally published newspaper is because they are all being screened by the government and do not actually published views from different parties so as you can make your own judgment and thus having your own opinion.

If you got time, especially if you’re living near to Kuantan in Pahang.. I think it’s better you begin your plan to move to other city in malaysia because what I read from the following article from NYtimes made me very worry..

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/30/business/global/30rare.html?pagewanted=1&ref=malaysia

 

Some extract from the article that strike the bull’s eye:

“Nicholas Curtis, the executive chairman of Lynas, said in a telephone interview from Sydney on Monday that the project here met local environmental standards and that he believed those were consistent with international standards. “I have complete confidence in the Malaysian environmental standards and our ability to meet the requirements,” he said.”

Well, almost all malaysian after reading the above statement will understand that there is definitely something wrong …

First of all.. the local standard definitely not consistent and in line with the international standard! Besides, we all knew that, in Malaysia, even the laws are stated there or the standard are there.. the institution may not have the resources or power to enforce it… so…… what I hope is nothing but to pray that anyone with a good heart in the company can minimize the foreseeable future of that region.

BUT THEN, they are here to make money… so?
Fictional character said : “SCREWED U! who care what are the waste behind?? 3 cheers for screwing your home’s back yard… and we’re here to make money and run away!! :P ”

To make you even more worry, some more extract from the article:

“ An engineer involved in the project said that the blueprints called for the plastic waterproofing but that he was ordered to omit it, to save money. The plastic costs $1.60 a square foot, he said.”

 

 

….hmm… i think… we’re in a desperate state to lure foreign investment…

在电视上看过，现在竟然真的发生在我邻居的门。。

我想大家都有在电视新闻还是报纸上看过大耳窿追债泼漆的新闻。。
不过亲眼看见泼后的漆还未干的，我看很少人有这种“荣幸”目睹吧。。哈哈。。

这个就发生在我刚刚迁入不久的新居隔壁几间的邻居。。
现在我终于明白为什么明明有人住在里面但是天天都把门窗关到密密实实的啦。。
住HDB已经是很烦人的一件事了。。要是连门窗都不能开哪真的是终极郁闷。。
希望他们早日把债务还清,不然过不了多久我看大家的家门都会统统变成艺术门。

Sony Headset bought at SGD69 broken within 9 months

This is the cheapest neck back headset I found in Jurong Point Sony Style, so I bought it. Well, I won’t expect it to last forever but I do expect it to last more than 1 year..buts……it broken within 9months.

Therefore, I took my time go back to the same shop and found out that anything cost less than $100 for headset is not cover by any warranty(except a first 7 days exchange). WTH! I can easily find an headset selling less than $50 and it’s covered by at least 1 year warranty.

By spending a little bit more, I can even buy a Sennheiser headset with 2 years warranty @ $99 (that’s still less than 100!)

Moral of the story:

DON’T BLINDLY TRUST ANY BRAND;

TRUST ONLY QUALITY PRODUCTS!

Headset from SONY? I scare my spending not justifiable.

Bye bye Linksys and Welcome D-Link!

Thing i do after Xperia X1 back from service center..and..why it goes to service center so often..

Install touch response (your device will vibrate once it sense a touch on screen) : http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-touchresponse.html

Install RAR for pocket pc(for extract zip file) : http://www.win-rar.com/download.html

Install Flash lite 3.1(for flash website) and batti(for a better battery usage indicator) : http://www.modaco.com/content/xperia-x1-x1-modaco-com/274005/pauls-must-have-free-xperia-x1-software/

Diamond keyboards(for your finger and completely ditch stylus) :

Judging from the long list above, it looks like there are still lots of thing Sony Ericsson can do to perfect the overall experience and make a customer happier. (software wise)

For Hardware wise there is only one complaint and it’s a serious one for the QWERTY keyboard :
I SERIOUSLY THINK THAT THE MATERIAL USE TO SUPPORT THE PHYSHYCAL KEYPAD WASN’T UP TO THE STANDARD AND IT’S OBVIOUSLY A DESIGN FLAW.

I sent back my X1 twice within one year to repair the QWERTY key pad. Generally, some of the keypad will start to show symptom within 3 months and others will follow.

Common symptoms are :
1. Once you pressed the button, but the character did not appear on screen .
2. You pressed the button once, but it appear 2 or 3 character on screen .
3. The soft-keypad will start to wear out from commonly used characters , for example space bar, dot(. ), and question mark(?), and other characters will also slowly develop the symptom described in point two and three.
4. The soft-keypad will start to wear out after few months of under normal usage. (i swear I’m not an avid SMSer..)

Guess what , if your device is out of warranty , it will cost you SGD80 to replace the support material without adding in the labour charge yet.

请你告诉我这是侮辱、人身攻击、开玩笑还是一个普通谈话？

上个星期六下午，JMC那里有捐血运动，答应了好人要去捐血所以就先去那里。可是因为我上个星期回JB而被拒绝捐血，说JB是Cikkungunya疫区，要在新加坡待超过14天后才能捐血。晕，不过这个是为了血液的安全考量而不是歧视，所以我可以理解。

至于消失了这么久突然出现肯定是免不了受到某些人异样的眼光那我也习惯了；毕竟大多数是好人，总不能只说坏人让他们占了光。

过后我就到义诊中心帮忙拍照。基本上整个拍照的行程还是蛮愉快的，可是就是发生了以下一个小插曲让我耿耿于怀，心里头实在不爽到现在。你说我小气，不大量啊什么都好，我就是不爽。打从心底里面不爽就是不爽。不过我还是可以控制自己的情绪不至于当场马上翻脸，还可以面带微笑回应，我还真的是佩服我自己可以假到酱。

案发现场（scenario 1)：
A先生："丝兄，在新加坡乱拍照，你知道可以告你告到lok kok吗？"
丝（我）:"huh?" （心想：懊恼为什么这个A先生跟我说这些，和他又不熟）

->其实我也不是很在意；就去拍其他东西了。不过，没想到A先生还来找碴。

案发现场（scenario 2)：
A先生："你不是新加坡人噢？"
丝（我）:"不是。"

A先生："哪你应该去读读新加坡的法律。"
丝（我）:"？？？" （只能微笑，扮傻。。。）

A先生："你现在拍了我的照片，我可以告你的你知道吗？"
丝（我）:"哦，是噢？" （心想：那你要我怎么办？问过这里所有的人后才拍？你以为我很得空啊？）　

->于是礼貌上，我就把相机拿下把拍了的照片翻翻让他看看咯。

A先生："你拍的相片没有什么" （他也没要求我把有他的相片删掉）
丝（我）:"har?"

A先生："你有没有学过啊？"
丝（我）:"没有噢"(心想：说我没学过你应该就会放过我了吧？虽然我有向别人偷师)

A先生："哇，你没有学过来这里乱拍？"
丝（我）:"。。。"（心想：一定要学过才可以拍啊？）

->我继续翻我拍过的照片。。

A先生："我觉得你拍的照片没有一张ｏｋ的。" （边说边走开）
丝（我）:"。。。"（心想：我这样flip一下你就可以有结论，也是厉害一下，虽然我也觉得不是很好）
（至于是微笑还是苦笑我都不清楚我那时到是怎样笑的出来。。）

->我呆坐1分钟冷静一下后，继续拍。（当然还要先把所有A先生的照片删掉，不然他来告我告到lok kok，那我不是很不值得？）

我也不是完全没有自知之明，我自己也知道我那天拍的照片的确是没什么好的。可是我也没有问你的意见啊，再加上你的意见一点建设性都没有，听了我不但没办法改进还一肚子的火。

其实，考虑到病患的心情，我的确不应该出现（人家生病我还去拍照？也是很可恶）。我也就是考虑到病患的心情所以我的镜头都是没有正面对着他们的，都是从他们的背面切入，重点放在工作人员的身上，可是工作人员要告我wor,那我有什么办法啊？只好都删了咯。。

最后，要不是他们说找不到人你以为我很想来拍啊？来这里拍还要受你的气！可恶！

至于看了这两个scenario的谈话，你觉得我有什么地方可以进步的，请多多指教。当然希望是有建设性的意见。
