Pinggan Tak Retak Nasi Tak Dingin

Annoying Education System
======================
People will see you as a total failure when you are not able to find a job and contribute something back in the form of taxes and free gifts to people in need and mostly people who are not in need.
When I applied for BR1M, I wish the money I can use to pay for my additional examination fees in my private studies. I have been bombarded every year to submit and re-submit documents to the relevant parties and appeal here and there again and again.
As for my University enrollment, I have never received any letter whatsoever regarding my studentship status from the Registrar. Perhaps this is what I call 'no money no talk' situation. There are students who have got to re-submit forms of deferment to study, semesters after semesters and the University never understands that those students need financial aids rather than "having financial problems which necessitate money management scheme (like in AKPK commitments)." Even when the AKPK payment is being paid, the students still could not find financial aids or scholarships to further their studies.
And I receive an annoying SMS from somebody who says that "you yourself created yourself in your current conditions".
Well, there are so many people who never understand how it is like to ask for money in time of need, and the money never be received. And there are so many bankers and bill collectors who act like angels and representatives of God just to give more pressure like giving more loans which they themselves know that the students would never going to make ends meet, even after they graduated.
Should I ask for more in the next GE-14?

[no title at this moment] - It has a deep meaning.

Procrastination System
==================
I need to learn from those who are expert in applying the above system when it comes to asking for lower prices or even free gifts (such as RM0.03sen water per cubic meter or a Ferrari for saying thank you).

Like BR1M and other financial aids, nobody would give you free gifts unconditionally. Those people who receive it would be labelled as "vulnerable" and "unable to cope with increasing prices and inflationary effects".

I read from a Magazine a few years ago, that people are not there to have a sense of boredom and they are not supposed to be bored and there is no reason for them to be so bored. I don't need to pronounce the name of the person who said such a statement then.

My question is if I receive a gift like smartphone or sth, do I need to re-pay the price? 

Obviously there are many boring people out there as opposed to people who are bored.

I am not a politician

I wonder if you are a President of a rich country, or a Prime Minister of a developed country, will you know how to deal with this kind of questions from your people?
I am still searching answers from those of the developing countries. 
Can you call your nation a developed nation when your people are still applying for financial aids and they are still being asked to make an appeal in order to get what they need in time?
Perhaps applying a place to study in Oxford is a luxury rather than an offer based on meritocracy. Nonetheless, many local Universities of developing nations are unaware of their students' needs and even existence. 
I shall not talk to any President of any country without proper protocols indeed. The same thing goes when he/she needs to say hello and a simple hi to anyone via the social media. 
To me, perhaps he/she is fake too. I don't need to sue people just to get RM500,000-00 cash, do I?

Hangat2 tahi ayam PRU-14
=====================
1) Banyak jalan yang berlubang masih lagi berlubang walaupun ada usaha untuk menampalnya sempena menyambut PRU-14. Bersyukur itu lebih baik dan lembut bahasanya daripada mengadu domba dan memaksa orang itu dan orang ini buat kerja dll.
2) Ramai lagi yang masih tidak dapat bantuan BR1M dan perlu merayu dalam skala yang berkala untuk mendapatnya.
3) Kereta2 yang mempunyai susut nilai tinggi dan tiada harga jualan yang tinggi masih lagi menjalar di jalan raya yang sudah pastinya kereta2 tersebut perlu diberi minum dengan minyaknya untuk bergerak.
4) Stesen2 TV majoriti memaparkan gambar2 betapa baiknya mereka2 yang telah membantu ramai orang untuk hidup lagi baik dan mendapat apa yang mereka ingini.
Soalan saya: Mengapa tiada liputan tentang apa yang belum lagi diharapkan dan diperlukan oleh para pengundi yang rata2 menderita. Menderita ini bukan bermakna parti yang ada sekarang ini tidak berapa bagus atau buruk sangat. Tetapi ada sesuatu yang masih lagi tidak dapat dijelaskan betapa menderitanya manusia apabila duit yang diperlukan waktu saat2 diperlukan itu ditahan, disekat dan dipermain2kan sesuka hati oleh pihak2 tertentu untuk tujuan kajian, penalti, denda, menduga atau menaikkan darah mereka.
5) Ada Ketua Wanita satu parti ni berkata dalam Wawancara Bual Bicara (tidak perlulah saya sebutkan namanya) baru2 ini berkenaan dengan manifesto partinya, yang wanita perlu ada dompetnya sendiri.
Soalan saya: Adakah sama dompet yang dimiliki oleh warganegara tempatan dan warganegara yang ibu atau ayahnya bukan warganegara dan pendatang asing?

When I need a car, I really mean that I need a car.

Rupa-rupanya ramai pemungut hutang yang berselindung di dalam FB dan akaun sosial. Adakah mereka lebih berhak untuk merampas kereta orang yang tidak mampu lagi membayarnya atau mereka berkomplot dengan orang dalam mana2 agensi untuk mendapatkan kereta atau harta dengan cara yang pintas dan menggunakan nama orang lain dengan cara paksa dan halus.
Tidak perlulah saya beri surat kepada Gabenor Bank lagi selepas ini kerana surat yang saya beri kepada pegawai Bank yang profesional pun telah diputarbelitkan oleh mereka2 yang mempunyai agenda tersembunyi.
Mereka makan sedap mereka post dalam FB dan Instagram. Bagi saya, saya tak pernah jealous atau query pun walaupun mereka2 drive kereta mewah dll.
Tapi yang saya hairannya, ada manusia memang dilahirkan suka mendengki dan tidak boleh tengok orang lain hidup senang lenang dan mesti bersusah payah untuk mendapatkan sesuatu.
Saya teringat satu rangkap puisi dari Prof Madya Dr Lim Swee Tin berbunyi lebih kurang begini: - "Janganlah gelombangku menjadi gelombang anak2 ku."
Dan tak salah kalau saya katakan memang ramai manusia dilahirkan suka melihat kehancuran dan kejatuhan orang lain.

Enough with your car!

Like I said before, I shall curse the Bankers and their teams for the rest of their lives for denying my rights to possess a cheap and high quality car.
No matter who you are!

Dilemma of Intellectual Academicians

Dilema Pekerja Warganegara Di Malaysia


Saya masih lagi berfikir apa sebab claim seseorang itu di Jabatan Akaun dilambat-kan sedangkan memang seseorang itu akan kehabisan wang pada sesuatu masa kecuali jika dia mempunyai kad kredit yang jumlah hadnya tak terhad (limitless credits).



Bila kita bercakap pasal duit, orang yang meminta2 akan sentiasa wujud di segenap tempat untuk meminta2 dan orang yang memberi itu sentiasa akan mencari helah bagaimana untuk membuatkan orang yang meminta2 itu faham supaya jangan meminta2 lagi dan cari duit sendiri dan jangan meminta2 lagi.



Seperti juga meminjam wang di Bank, walaupun loan sudah diluluskan, peminjam terpaksa bergolok bergadai sebelum pinjaman tunai dapat dikeluarkan dan merayu bertalu2 dengan pelbagai cara supaya tunai dapat digunakan segera.



Begitu juga bantuan pendidikan, ada orang yang terpaksa merayu di pejabat Zakat contohnya supaya dapat dibantu. Namun dia dapat SMS dari pejabat Zakat itu menyatakan yang kursus yang diambil itu tidak dapat dibiayai oleh Bantuan Zakat kerana Pelajar Separuh Masa tidak dibantu lagi. Ini belum lagi bantuan yang dipohon dari "sumber surplus" Syarikat Korporat dan Badan2 NGO yang lain. 



Dilema lebih teruk berlaku apabila seseorang itu ada cita2nya sendiri, tetapi terpaksa mengikut saja aliran kewangan (financial flows) yang sangat tidak memberi apa2 faedah ke arah cita2nya dan hanya meminta2 sana sini untuk pembiayaan pelajarannya. Sampai ke tua dia hidup mencari sumber untuk membiayai pelajaran dan sudah tentu dia akan ketinggalan. 



Dilema yang perlu diperhalusi oleh pekerja di Malaysia ialah untuk memaksimakan pendapatan dan mencari jalan bagaimana dia boleh menikmati financial flow yang tidak tersekat2 dan terhalang oleh Majikannya dan juga Bank2 (dan seumpamanya yang seperti lintah darat dan mereka2 yang seperti mencekik darah).



Mungkin saya tidak berseorangan untuk mengutarakan isu ini kerana ramai pekerja yang masih lagi menderita ke sana sini untuk bekerja membayar yuran Universiti yang sangat membebankan mereka. 



Baru saya faham mengapa ramai sangat graduan yang mendapat PhD. tetapi mereka tidak ada "aura" dan "charisma" yang sepatutnya ada dalam kategori intelektual sebegitu. 



Mentaliti Kelas Pertama adalah sangat subjektif. Contohnya, ramai orang yang suka merampas kereta orang lain semata2 untuk memiliki kereta secara sambung bayar kerana murah dan tidak perlu membuat pinjaman atas namanya sendiri. 




P/S: I wonder how a Ph.D student may translate this article.

A gold diamond ring is crying like never before.

Well, I don't think we can get to see better future after the General Elections because of the fact that inflationary rates are skyrocketing plus the competitions among those who are locals and foreigners (some of them are the products of mixed marriage whose parents are either locals or foreigners).

Foreign to me when you see a local person (with both parents are Malaysians) are getting less and less salary and allowances as compared to those who are so called mixed. Of course, they (the foreigners) are working harder to gain money and properties here in order to survive. But those who are left behind are fed with BR1M and monetary aids which make them so less fortunate.

The story of the ring above is still left unspoken. And only one person can understand what I mean by left unspoken. There are things which are better off to be made unspoken. Like the ring which is supposed to be with someone else, now being ushered to be with someone who has hidden agenda with some other people.

I wrote the poem below a few years ago hoping somebody will come to the rescue the gold ring with diamond. But... like that crying ring, I just can't find a word to describe how people are so foolish in a sensible sense to just ignore my poem(s). 

Maybe I don't want to add insult to an injury, even doctors in Malaysia are so materialistic in their capacity of healers. They drive expensive cars and demanding for lavish salaries, not to mention that they have good businesses locally and abroad. I don't need to mention the Bankers who act like Barbarians in our soils as well.






And the ring never says goodbye.

Cincin itu menangis (A golden ring that sobs)



When someone dies, he/ she is leaving all his/ her possessions such as valuables and inheritances.


If the properties can speak by themselves, for sure they are able to pronounce with names specifically who shall be the next heir to inherit those possessions. Nevertheless, there is no such things as IT advancements nowadays to presume such inheritance in a way that those possessions can speak by themselves to whom they may concern. This new technology was supposed to be invented long before the advent of Computers (calculators) and mainframes (a big machine such as used by IBM decades ago).


When a person dies intestate, there shall be disgruntled people who would act like hooligans or snatchers (my phrase) because they are so adamant to get what they want from the very day a person passes away. 

Have you ever heard of some spooky stories when some people have got to deal with nightmares, dreams, some are being possessed with holy spirits whatsoever, to the extent that they can't even sleep for more 3 months not for mourning the deceased, but because they are crying why a gold ring with diamond which is supposed to be inherited to the right person has been "snatched away" by some relatives who are so much inclined to own it before the person had had the ring in her finger. 

Some time ago, we heard about a ring which costs more than hundreds of millions of Ringgit being bought by a dignitary. Nobody knows hitherto, how much is the actual cost of purchasing the ring and what is the heck that particular ring has to do with the administration of a multi-cultural country like Malaysia. And how many rings should that particular person who bought it using Consolidated Funds can wear at one point of time and in what events that ring may be worn? 

A gold ring with diamond is very expensive not in monetary value to me. But it resembles the values intrinsic to the lineage and compositions of the owners of the said ring. When a person snatches away such a ring from the deceased, of course the deceased would never get up and claim the ring back. I would rather say that the ring shall be looking for the right person (new owner) by itself. And the rightful snatcher of the said ring shall be puzzled as to how the ring is to be kept and how can the new owner get to know that the ring is his/hers and how to get it from the snatcher?

When a queen of a particular state has the knowledge about this ring, what shall she do? Nobody shall make it a spooky story as the ring is supposed to be inherited to someone who is qualified to wear it and the ring must be unencumbered (cannot be mortgaged or sold or used by outsiders or third parties).

The same goes with the ring, as much as the ring does not accept the person who snatches it on her finger, it is sad also to see how a queen cannot be accepted in some other people's state. 

Only one person can hear the gold ring with diamond cries. And nobody can hear exactly how a sad queen cries every night when the missing ring has come to her knowledge, when the gold ring with diamond struggles to release itself from the person it should not belong to.

P/S: Since I do not have a smartphone at this moment, I am unable to snap the picture of and descriptions to the gold ring with diamond. And I don't think I should add more sadness to the people who are still mourning their loved one who has just passed away. - Al-Fatihah.
