2012: Year Of Change

Salam and hello everyone. I have been hibernating for too long already from blogging and now, for 2012 I’ll try to write again as usual. Well, if you have read (have you?) my previous entry, you should know that I have decided to hibernate from writing for a while due to time management issue. But now, I have back on track and will continue to write as usual in the future.

Ok, talk about 2012, first thing first, there is no welcoming post for new year in this blog and my other blogs too. Sorry for that. Beside being too busy during at end of last year, I did spend most of time with my family and friends. Went out, have fun and for sure captured tons of great memory to be remembered by the end of 2011.

However, 2011 means a lot for me. Beside I have completed my study in Bachelor (Hons) Electrical and Electronics Engineering as planned, I got my first job offer from my first interview after less than 4 months graduating from UNITEN. Alhamdulillah, thank you Allah for giving me this and ease my career path. Even though my current job position somehow unrelated with my field of study, I don’t want to be choosy here by rejecting any job offers that is unrelated to my field of study. However, frankly speaking, sometime I did feel that what I’ve struggled for 4 years is kind of waste when I think back what I’m doing in my career now. But, if I look from different perspective and from the angle of positive impact, this unrelated job indirectly gives me some advantages which other engineers may not have chance to get it. Working with one of the big camera manufacture in the world is not easy though, even I’m not directly involve in engineering part, however being an Engineering Supporter in purchasing division is a tough work too. Procedures must be followed, ISO must be complied, everything must be documented; from A to Z. All in all, everything is new for me and I take this as a challenge in my learning curve for my career development.

That’s briefly about my job. Being a working youth (or should I use the word adult here?) also make me looks different in front of others especially to the one who are still studying. You get what I meant right? You’ve gained your own money from your own hands and this make you different. You’ll have new responsibility for yourself, family and other people around you. People will look into you as an independent people and a person who can be relied to. Same goes to me, these are the changes and responsibilities that I need to carry as a working youth. And 2012 is the year for all these changes.

That’s all for now. Until next entry, bye!

Hibernating From Writing

Salam and hello everyone. It has been for a few months since August where there is no new updates in this blog. Well, I’m just started unrelated-with-my-study job since August and still trying to manage my time properly for blogging, working and personal life.

Of course there are a lot of issues I want to response, write and comment, but I just don’t have enough time to write it all. I just kept everything inside my head and do more open discussion by face to face with my friends, office-mates, family members and others. Some people said it is better to talk face to face, but you may have limited audience in term of getting response and feedback. Hence, to diverse the audience, you need a more versatile medium where everyone may give response and feedback, and internet is one of the medium. And I miss the moment to get all these feedback and response from the netizen. For that, thank you for those who have given responses, comments and feedback on entries that I’ve written here. Please take everything that I’ve written here as a personal opinion, whereby there is a huge chance that the opinion may change over time.

That’s it for this time, I’ll try to manage back my time to get back on track and keep writing as usual.

p/s: I think university life is more enjoyable compared to working life. Yes, you may earn your own money, but you don’t have time for yourself to enjoy the money you earn. Owh, I’m just thinking of having a vacation and rest for a while.

#BersihStories – The Truth That Cannot Be Covered

Salam and hello everyone. This would be my last entry on the issue of Bersih 2.0 and the purpose of this entry is just to share with this blog readers what was actually happened during the rally. I hope you watch this video rationally and watch it as a human with humanity, as a citizen of a democratic country and with an open heart. By sharing this video, it doesn’t mean I’m supporting the Bersih 2.0 rally and provoking the government and police; it is just for the sake of sharing. You can read my previous entry for my thoughts on Bersih 2.0.

#Bersih 2.0 – “Stand and be Counted” – PM, Najib Razak

Salam and hello everyone. If you’re Malaysian, you obviously know about the Bersih 2.0 rally that had happened yesterday in capital city of Kuala Lumpur. If you’re “old people” who only seek information from one channel only and ignore the other alternative source of information channels, you might end up thinks the rally has caused a lot of trouble and Bersih 2.0 bring nothing except negative effect. I can assure this as I heard and see many of us are still don’t understand why we need Bersih 2.0. Please keep your attention that I didn’t mention about Bersih 2.0 rally, but what I want to bring up here is what Bersih 2.0′s demands or objectives.

So, please put aside about who organized this Bersih 2.0 rally, who are the leader, what the leader did in the past and what so ever. Let’s focus on more important issue about the current election system of our so-called democratic country Malaysia, which is what Bersih 2.0 is pointing out.

“I think it’s about time for people to stand up and be counted, (and state) how they feel about (the Bersih 2.0 rally),” – Datuk Seri Najib Razak, Prime Minister of Malaysia. (Source)

So, dear my Mr. Prime Minister, let me state my standpoints on Bersih 2.0 issue. Personally, I’m against the rally. I say the rally. Not what the Bersih 2.0 is trying to fight regarding the current election system in Malaysia. Yes, different people have different way of accepting the issue on Bersih 2.0 and for me, rally is not my way. However, it doesn’t mean I have to totally push away what Bersih 2.0 is highlighting regarding Malaysia’s election system which needs a major reform for a more clean and transparent election system. Don’t get what I’m saying? Watch the video below.
