  • Commentary: Things Will Remain As They Are Until The Majority Wakes Up And Get Real

    Commentary: Things Will Remain As They Are Until The Majority Wakes Up And Get Real

    Those calling for resignation of senior staff must be dreaming. If even the tragic accident which caused the death of two young staff did not lead to any resignation, do you expect any senior staff to resign over this recent accident?

    Are you not aware that they have a culture of forgiving themselves and their chosen ones?

    Budget overruns of hundreds of millions (YOG) and gross overpayment to consultants for designing a small rubbish dump are also forgiven.

    Things will remain as they are until the majority wakes up and get real.

  • Bahaya Simpan Ubat Demam Lama Sangat Dalam Peti Ais

    Bahaya Simpan Ubat Demam Lama Sangat Dalam Peti Ais

    Saya perasan kalau saya buka peti ais rumah siapa-siapa pun mesti banyak ubat demam anak-anak.

    Biasanya mak ayah ni suka simpan ubat demam Panadol, Asmol, Promethazine,dan Kidz PCM dalam peti ais. Bukan seminggu dua tapi kadang kadang tu sampai berbulan-bulan pun ada.

    Siapa tahu kenapa ya?

    Tahu tak bahaya kalau kita simpan ubat demam tu lama sangat? Tahu tak botol ubat tu asalnya diisi dengan udara bersih ataupun Nitrogen di kilang sana. Udara dalam tu memang bebas kuman tapi sekali kita dah buka botol ubat demam tu, udara bersih tu akan keluar dan udara luar yang mengandungi fungi, bakteria dan wap air ni akan masuk.

    Lagi satu, bila kita simpan ubat dalam peti ais proses kondensasi akan berlaku dan wap air akan terbentuk dalam botol ubat tu. Wap air tu takde bahan pengawet sepertimana ubat yang memang ada bahan pengawet jadi bakteria mudah membiak kat dalam tu.

    Berapa lama je boleh simpan?

    Sebenarnya tak perlu simpan pun. Bila anak demam lagi, ambil je ubat yang baru. Tu lagi selamat tapi kalau nak simpan juga jangan lebih 2 bulan ye. Lebih bahaya lagi kalau kita simpan pastu kita lupa dah berapa lama ubat tu kita simpan. Bila anak demam je terus bagi ubat lama tadi. Aduh! Bahaya!

    p/s : Kalau suhu masih bawah 37.5 c tu tak perlu pun ubat demam. Banyakkan minum air ye. Kalau selsema sikit-sikit tu banyakkan makan buah buahan je. Belajar berjimat cermat sikit bab ubat-ubatan.

    Tolong sebarkan dan ajar ilmu ni pada ibubapa kat luar sana juga ye. Saya tahu ramai ibubapa yang tak tahu tentang benda ni.

  • Adab-Adab Menelefon Dan Menerima Panggilan Telefon

    Adab-Adab Menelefon Dan Menerima Panggilan Telefon

    Memang perangai manusia berbeza-beza tetapi kadang-kalanya ada juga perangai yang agak sama di antara kita. Ini bergantung kepada adat, adab, nilai dan budaya di mana masing2 dibesarkan (home culture and values), personaliti dan pengalaman kehidupan. Satu perangai negatif yang sudah terlalu banyak saya lihat adalah mengenai adab menelefon orang lain dan terima panggilan daripada orang lain.

    Orang yang menelefon:
    1. Apabila menelefon seseorang, JANGAN bertanya “Siapa tu?” sebab anda yang menelefon. Orang yang angkat telefon tu yang patut bertanya “Siapa tu?”. Anda harus bertanyakan nama orang yang anda ingin hubungi (bangang betul lah)

    2. Apabila menelefon seseorang, JANGAN mulakan perbualan dengan “Kenal suara I tak? Kenal I siapa tak?”…kalau anda call dengan tidak menggunakan khidmat video phone supaya senang dikenali, JANGAN terlalu perasan suara anda itu unik…kalau anda nak buat surprise call, BE PREPARED to get surprised by some swear words from the other person on the line (baghal betul lah).

    3. Apabila memicit nombor telefon yang sudah lama anda tidak call, ada kemungkinan nombor yang sama telah dikitar semula kepada orang lain. Jadi, nasihat #1 dan #2 tadi juga tidak relevan langsung untuk digunakan.

    4. Apabila tersalah nombor, segera minta maaf (orang tu tak tahu awak siapa. Suara je. Jadi, kenapa nak malu minta maaf? tak logik kan kan? Bodoh langit-langit lah). Minta Maaf untuk menenangkan hati si penerima panggilan sebelum anda dimaki hamun. Jangan cepat2 letak telefon tanpa meminta maaf. Pengecut namanya tu. Anda tak rugi apa2 apabila minta maaf (badigol so’od betul ah!)

    Untuk si Penerima panggilan:
    1. Keep calm and insist on getting the name of the caller before you give yours.
    They may be prowlers.
    2. Jangan marah2 kerana kadang-kala si pemanggil benar2 buat silap (honest mistake)
    3. Apabila si pemanggil minta maaf, maafkanlah…jangan pula awak tunjuk samseng nak marah2 dia balik.

  • Over Representation Of One Particular Community In SPF And SCDF

    Over Representation Of One Particular Community In SPF And SCDF

    The truth of the matter is, our boys in the SCDF (especially the firemen) and the SPF are the ones who are doing national service for real.

    Day in and day out they face real-life situations, risking their lives.

    And guess what?

    One particular community is over represented in both the services – way above its national percentage.

    But they hold only junior ranks even though many amongst them are not lacking in academic and physical qualifications.

    Strangely though, the paper generals and admirals who never face real emergencies are the ones rewarded with juicy appointments, earning millions, when they leave the services – with some even becoming ministers.

    Commentary: I Am Not Racist, But..

    ‘I am not racist, but…’

    —–

    ‘I am not racist, but I believe I am superior to an entire race of people because they are all lazy. I am just being a realist.’

    ‘I am not racist, but I love to make fun of people’s ethnicity, especially people who are darker than me. It’s just more funny that way.’

    ‘I am not racist, but there is no way I would employ someone of that race. He/she just would not be suited for this job.’

    ‘I am not racist, but “those people” really cannot be helped. Because they don’t want to be helped.’

    ‘I am not racist, but people should stop being so sensitive when I make racist jokes which are not funny.’

    ‘I am not racist, but thank God White people civilized the world.’

    ‘I am not racist, but the minorities should not express discontentment in this particular peaceful manner. There are other ways – that do not offend me, are out of my sight, do not make me aware of your problems, do not force me to confront painful realities – to do so.’

    ‘I am not racist, but I do not really like to pray beside Indians in the mosques because they smell.’

    ‘I am not racist, but I do some/all of the above. But my father’s neighbour’s cousin’s brother-in-law is from a minority race, and since I know him personally, I cannot be racist.’

    —–

    You are not racist, only because you do not wish to see yourself as a racist.
