A lunch of speculation

Now a days, if you have lunch with certain people, just beware that people might think you may have something to do with the other person. :D

As the speculation of Anwar and Abdullah lunch break ignite the possibility of cooperating in between 2 leaders, I suppose it might not be able to happen in the nearing future. However, in politics, anything can happen.

Well, a lunch is what we need for our stomach. Not necessary every meeting must touch on political stuff.

The Transition

The Marine again answered, "Sir, Mr. Clinton is no longer president." A few day's after George W. Bush's inauguration, a man came up to the uniformed Marine on duty at the White House and said "I'd like to see President Clinton. The Marine politely answered "Sir, Mr. Clinton is no longer president." The man said, "Oh, O.K." and walked away. The next day the Marine was again on duty and the same man approached and again asked to see President Clinton. Again the man answered, "Oh, O.K." and walked away.

The next day the same man approached the same Marine and again asked to see President Clinton. The Marine, a little annoyed, said "Sir, I've told you, Mr. Clinton is no longer president. Don't you understand that?" "Yes, I do" said the man, "But I just enjoy hearing it." The Marine smiled and said, "See you tomorrow."

Some of us might have read this before. Well, what I want to do is to let your imagination flow a little bit. Change President Clinton to other names or MP that you don't quite like. For Example: Syed Hamid of Home Minister. Or C4? :D

Enjoy your self!

Teachers going mad teaching subjects in English

TAIPING: Some Malay teachers in Bagan Serai are “going mad” as they cannot handle teaching Mathematics and Science subjects in English, claimed a state assemblyman .

Dr Khalil Idham Lim Abdullah (Titi Serong) said the teachers themselves had to take English classes to improve their command of English.

While they are still grappling with the language, they are required to teach their students as well, said Khalil, who was chairman of the Perak Backbenchers Club in the former Pakatan Rakyat-led state government.

“The teachers themselves have a poor command of English. How do we expect them to teach their students?” he asked in his speech after a briefing on the subject at the state PAS headquarters in Jalan Air Kuning on Tuesday.

Some teachers, he said, “have simply gone crazy” because of this, likening the matter to the blind leading the blind. He claimed the minimum passing mark for both subjects were lowered to ensure that only a rosy picture was painted of the move.

Prof Abdullah said the argument that the usage of English would provide better job opportunities could only hold water if there were plenty of job openings.

The fact that they (The Teacher) have to take English lesson is also for their own good. I wonder how they pass their English Test when they were in Teacher Training College. The Education Ministry proves one thing: They hired LOW Quality Teacher to Teach or their program 'shucks ' and produce ineffective teacher!

Of course, not all Teachers are low in quality. I do know some great teacher!! :D

Just the minority who dislike teaching, who take things for granted, who do not care a heck on the students welfare, and the list go on.

Being a Teacher is not "Another 9 to 5 job". Its about moulding a child's future, and it also impart your knowledge with him or her.

Another factor we must not forget is that the time frame given to start teaching Mathematics and Science In English were quite short. It was just a few months for the teacher to prepare them selves. The Government should have given a year for the teacher to acquire it before allowing them to teach.

So, whose fault is it? All the decisions are made by the Education Ministry who has not taught before, yet they made all the lousy mistakes which can be prevented.

Time to think and plan well.

Demo anti-PPSMI dihujani gas

Baca berita sepenuhnya di sini.

Yang aku hairan ialah kenapa ia tidak mempunyai permit untuk menghantar memo ke Istana?

Setelah aku baca dengan teliti:

"Peserta perhimpunan itu - yang asalnya hanya dibenarkan oleh polis diadakan di masjid (Masjid Negara) tersebut - melanggar arahan polis yang melarang sebarang perarakan." - malaysiakini

Jadi Polis telah geram and rasa ia tidak sepatutnya? Ataupun orang yang bagi memo itu telah keluar dari garisan yang sepatutnya? Kalau saya cakap Polis betul dengan tindakannya, saya rasa ia tidak baik untuk mereka yang terkena gas didih ini. Entah Polis ade bagi warning atau tembak kerana Anti-ISA sudah tidak berkumpulan selama 2-3 minggu, dan mereka rasa nak buat aje?

Semua ini adalah soalan dan bukan kenyataan.

Dalam tahun ini, entah berapa gas didih telah digunakan...

Sultan bimbang orang Melayu Selangor berpecah : Bukan semua Rakyat ke?

Sultan Selangor Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah menyuarakan kebimbangan terhadap orang Melayu di Selangor yang telah berpecah belah disebabkan oleh berlainan fahaman politik.

Titah baginda, walaupun bangsa Melayu tidak mungkin akan hilang dari dunia, tetapi tidak ada gunanya sekiranya orang Melayu yang tinggal itu tidak bertamadun, tidak dihormati dan boleh dipermainkan serta diperalatkan.

"Beta sudah berkali-kali menyeru kepada rakyat Melayu di negeri Selangor ini supaya menghormati antara satu sama lain, memahami akan kedudukan satu dengan yang lain dan yang paling penting, mempercayai antara satu dengan yang lain.

"Jika orang Melayu sentiasa menyimpan syak wasangka antara satu dengan yang lain maka inilah yang akan menimbulkan rasa curiga, rasa sangsi dan cemburu yang menyebabkan timbulnya fikiran dan tindakan yang negatif sesama rakyat jelata," titah baginda.

Baginda telah menyuarakan fikirannya. Saya berpendapat bahawa ia bergantung kepada cara seseorang itu dibesarkan. Keadaan sekeliling di mana seseorang itu tinggal juga menjadi faktor yang mempengaruhi pemikiran yang negatif.

Namun, setiap orang ada pilihan mereka.

Di Malaysia, terdapat 2 kumpulan Rakyat.

Kumpulan yang pertama adalah demi Kebaikan Malaysia yang mana mereka mahukan Kerajaan yang bersih dan Amanah, Keadilan untuk semua orang, dan Kerajaan yang fikir demi Rakyat jelata.

Kumpulan yang kedua pula pentingkan kebaikan sendiri dan tidak pendulikan kesusahan Rakyat. Mereka pula menyokong dengan buta-buta tanpa fikir dengan sebaik-baiknya. Nak sokong pun fikirlah sikit...

Sudah tiba masa Rakyat Bersatu, bukan hanya orang Melayu aje.

Demi Malaysia yang lebih Baik!
