Realising a Dream

Dear Prof. Koh Soo Ling,

I read your Sunday NST article ‘ Realizing a dream’ . I share your great pleasure of success, the contentness after long and winding journey as lecturer and educator in UiTM. You strolled a challenging road and now reach the triumphant halt, and definitely that 27 years had put you a lot of falls and rises.

Your motto ‘ to excel in what I do’ is the key of determination. You had observed the beauty of hardship and the delight of struggling which give meaning in anything you do. Sadly how youngster today has lack of determination to be successful . Even some are reluctant to make the first step to change their life for betterment , like what Columbus made his first step to leave his home and discover America. Motivations and visions are still obscure in our youngs.

I love to read stories of success. Such article of yours can be inspiring for the young and constantly remind them to chase their dream and live life meaningfully. Meaningful here means to be dedicated to anything they pursue in this life. It’s like what you have done for your 27 years, I’m sure to see your students success , is most ultimate fulfillment in your life as educator.

Truly,

Daun Kering

Today is my birthday ! Happy birthday to me. I write this poem as my birthday present to my self.The poem name ' Daun Kering ' . Enjoy.

Daun Kering
yang ditiup angin.
Entah arah ke mana .

Cuma sedaya mungkin mengharap

daun kering dibawa
ke pintu syurga.

Shortage of Staff Nurses

This letter is to inform on the shortage of staff nurses at Seremban General Hospital. Some wards are intense with patients and admission always at peak. My wife work at one of the ward often express worry of these lacking staff which may result many other unwanted consequences .

Normally each staff nurse will took charge of 4 patience . But now it can be triple and even more . At any time in the ward could amounting above 40 patients .They need to cover many task in attending each patients .This derive to many medical mismanage cases due to nurse fatigues . Staff nurse sometimes need to submit the explanatory letter for the faults occur and the complaints are getting increase. This at the end badly reflect on their performance evaluation record . Also numerous cases nurses that on pregnant ended miscarriage because have to work extra and heavily due to lack of staff. Sometimes they need to do double duty that stretch of 14 hours working a day.

Nurses are also susceptible to disease which transferred by the patients. One reported case which involve the staff nurse suffered Tibi which now jeopardized his life by her own career.

I urge the government and director of hospital take this matter seriously. The health of the nurses need to put at the top priority. Government need to identify the GH which having intense work of handling patients. The additional staff need to address urgently. This is to ensures that quality of health care that provided is at Par and error due to human can be mitigated.

Viva World Cup 2010

The fever is back , the World Cup 2010, the greatest football event ever , is around the corner. All media highlights are laden and focus on this fiesta. The football lover and enthusiast will be glued to their television with supporting jersey attire. 24 nations will be competing their strategy and strength. Team manager still counting the players and struggling to finalize the squad list before fly high to South Africa in 11 Jun 201o for kick start.

In our country this event climate is hot as ever, the Mamak’s big screen stall will draw its additional crowds , and McDonald also will accommodate even greater spectators by open as official venue for live telecast .

Even merrier the betting now made legal by the government. Selected firm need not to work underground . Police is ease from having additional task during this peak season, to rush any illegal betting activity which also generates other social problem such money lending, organized crime and money laundering.

The emergence of ‘Football Pundits’ is another interesting part of this big event. Everybody just can’t stop to give his own comment and view of every game played. Each game will be critised and enormously debated .’ If I being Cappello’ .. will be heard anywhere . Some will give the brief on the game strategy and other on team fallacy . Some turn Nostradamus by giving great prophecy on which will be the winning team. This epidemic will be prolonged for a month.

Malaysian always being big fan of football . We yell, disgruntle, dismay , shout , quarrel , and this have been the long joy and cry moment for our fans. We always observed how the greats play and manage their team . We had lot of ideas and effort in developing our country team . Our legends who had really put their heart and soul to this game contributed extensively. They have show the clear vision to our national football team . The football just not about how to play the game but more importantly how the team should be managed.

Hopefully the World Cup 2010 will not just be the lame Mamak stall talking, , yelling and jumping of supporters and also never ending story of tactic and strategic discourse. Let be the South Africa 2010 as platform for thoughtful observation and serious learning over battling team in the tournament . More fruitful part is to get something from it and implement the best solution for our football future. It’s an ultimate dream of everyone, to see one day , our team play in this prestige tournament .During that time we shout and cheer together for our own team in front of Mamak’s big screen stall.

Future Front Liner

The future of a country lies at their young generations , an inherent fact . The aspirations and visions that laced by our top brass undoubtedly outstanding, thoroughly and meticulously architectured . The question that may worry was wheter the visions has entirely shares and akinly frequensized by these younger generations.

National service is an applaudable effort coined by the government . In other sense it address the seriousness of the current leadership over the new generations. What will be the picture of the country once the baton is pass to this youngster , will they succeed and able to maintain our developing progress. Or we will moving at backward pace. The 3 months program of National service is just a starter. Instilling the sense of belonging and love for the country is lifelong dedication. It has to work continuously and the duration 3 months shouldn’t end once then finish the closing parade. The spirit and all the nationalism that being imparted need to be poured and seen once they rejoin the everyday life.

I’m consider among who inherited independent , developing , peace and harmony country. We are birth by witnessing all the tall buildings, modern technologies , pleasures of life by wide spreading entertainments. The culture of hedonistic are become the top priority which undermined our vision’s main effort and focus . By going back to our historical moments, delved into the trying and challenge chapters in our history are little way to aroused these youngster to understand how we are here now and the important of maintain our independent.

The country survivability is at eminent stake. It’s the time we need to instill some distinctive characteristic in them . In spite of they asking what things can be provided to them , timely they should ask themselves what they can contribute to this beloved country.

engkaukah

Ku tatang dirimu bagai sang pencinta
Seraut tubuh mu panas dalam dakapku.
Dan tidak ku hiraukan apa
lirikan matamu hanya bahagia.

Adakala keras langkahku
melayukan bunga-bunga ditamanmu
Dan seakan tidak ada lagi maaf
Di syurga tak siapa yang tahu
Apakah yang telah kita laku.

Engkaukah yang hadir bersama cinta itu
Yang menenangkan segenap hatiku
Yang menyinarkan seluruh hariku

Engkaukah senyuman itu
Yang merindu seluruh diriku
Yang tetap ingin bersamaku

Engkaukah yang merasakan semua itu
yang dirimu itu milik ku
dan bagaimana pula dengan aku?

Masihkan ingin kau dakapku bagai sang pencinta
Susun rapi hatiku di dadamu
Meski dalam kurang kasih sayangmu
tetap bahagia dalam duka lara kita
dan bila fikiranmu dan fikiranku bersatu
Dalam satu dunia yang tidak sempurna
Hanya kita saja menari bersama .


Dan adakala aku tahu
sentiasa melagu resahmu
hingga jadi dirimu tidak tentu
Bagai mahu saja mati terkaku
Tapi terfikirkah jika tidak lagi bersamaku…

Oleh itu tenanglah sayangku
Biar saja kulayarkan bahtera
Sebelum kita tidak lagi bersama
untuk selama-lama.

Think Over Life

Some excerpt worth to ponder and re- ponder :

We pray probably took about 7 to 10 minutes per session . Accumulatedly all 5 times prayers are less than an hour. Vice versa , we work at office from 9 to 5 which spent us almost 7 hours. Just imagine if we consider devotion to HIM only by perform the prayers, meaningly we only give 1 hours to HIM, how about the remaining 23 hours? Whereas God obligate us to devote to Him 24 hours...
