寻留步·字留迹@loopingyew

last week, i have read this article which i think should share here with everyone of us, lets us aware whats is going to happen in the future when the situation come worse. This is more suffering compare to 2012. People just die when a wave come from the sea, but people suffer for few 10 years (or even worse) when a wave of economy struck. 

外交部的數字不會騙人，國人大量移居，隱然已出現移民潮。
怪不得！全球航空公司都在虧本賠錢，而馬航和亞航卻一枝獨秀，盈利驚人；想來，除了旅遊公幹的乘客之外，乘坐移民機的，也是主要客戶。

依照這種趨勢，大馬可以不必擔心人口負擔過重，我們可以把人口問題，轉嫁給其它國家，讓它們承擔後果，誰叫它們說要吸引人才。

10年後，我們不會再有增建華小問題。小朋友跟著爸爸媽媽走了，華小董事部和校長老師到處搶學生，挨家沿戶乞求各族家長送讀。願意報讀者，書本、校服、校車全部免費，並送最新智慧手機一部；如果簽約讀滿6年，另送18歲之後的移民機票。

馬華公會也不會再有黨爭。馬華黨員遍佈全球，可以開設悉尼分會、東莞分會、雅加達分會、溫哥華分會……；香港有港島、九龍和新界分會，新加坡則從兀蘭到聖淘沙，廣設30分會，有望取代現在執政的人民行動黨，成為該國最大黨。

人走了，房子就多了。於是，吉隆坡黃金地段的高級公寓，價格將從每方尺1000令吉，下滑至500令吉；八打靈再也的雙層排屋，從每棟50萬令吉，跌至25萬令吉；到時，能夠撿現成的便宜，要多大的屋子都有。

還有，車子少了，空氣清新了，污染改善了；不會再有廟宇教堂問題，也不用爭種族問題（華人改為KKK――Khoo Kay Kim一族）。

馬來西亞，成為最適合人類居住的國家。
當然，我們也可以從更正常的角度預測未來。
人走了，資金流出去了，工廠遷出去了，商店關門了，超級市場人潮沒了，金馬崙高原不種菜了，巴也明光不養豬了……。

這讓我想到非洲的津巴布韋。30年前，它的名字還是羅德西亞，一個由白人精英領導的非洲黑人國家。
後來，黑人領袖穆加比推翻白人政權，從此黑人當家做主。
這個發展符合民主規律，絕對是政治正確。一個黑人佔人口多數的國家，不可能交由白人主導。
問題出在穆加比上台之後，推行民粹主義，排斥少數白人居民，通過各種手段，巧取豪奪社會資源，把白人徹底邊緣化。

白人失去了礦場和農莊，沒有了商店和土地，只好大量移民，離開津巴布韋。
結果，津巴布韋的經濟崩潰，通貨膨脹230,000,000%，失業率80%，民不聊生；政治動蕩，黑人政客當權，極度腐敗；公共衛生解體，人民平均壽命是37歲，成年人之中，有40%患上爱滋病。
分配驅逐了競爭，扶助取代了績效，優惠淘汰了公平。

sorry, another Chinese article again, but this time i will not translate it, haha...  
I believe most of us heard about Zimbabwe, a country located at Africa. The chinese text above in short bring the meaning that the numbers of migrate-ors is increasing, will lead to the failure of the economy. And it do state the factors that people migrate, other than 10A1 students cannot get JPA scholarships,  high qualification professionals cannot get the fair positions, there are still alot more!!!
Do you think Malaysia will be Zimbabwe-ing? the case is similar...lets see on the economy of Zimbabwe, then we will know why izit similiar...


"Zimbabwe maintained positive economic growth throughout the 1980s (5.0% GDP growth per year) and 1990s (4.3% GDP growth per year). However, the economy declined from 2000: 5% decline in 2000, 8% in 2001, 12% in 2002 and 18% in 2003. Zimbabwe's involvement from 1998 to 2002 in the war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo drained hundreds of millions of dollars from the economy.(it is like purchasing submarine,battle plane for performance purposes?)"

"The downward spiral of the economy has been attributed mainly to mismanagement and corruption of the Mugabe regime and the eviction of more than 4,000 white farmers in the controversial land redistribution of 2000 (just like disappear or changing owner for Gong Yik Bank, sugar factory, bus company?). This has also resulted in Zimbabwe, previously an exporter of maize, becoming a net importer."

"Inflation rose from an annual rate of 32% in 1998 to an IMF estimate of 150,000% in December 2007, and to an official estimated high of 231,000,000% in July 2008 according to the country's Central Statistical Office. This represented a state of hyperinflation, and the central bank introduced a new 100 billion dollar note. As of November 2008, unofficial figures put Zimbabwe's annual inflation rate at 516 quintillion per cent, with prices doubling every 1.3 days. Zimbabwe's inflation crisis is now (2009) the second worst inflation spike in history, behind the hyperinflationary crisis of Hungary in 1946, in which prices doubled every 15.6 hours. By 2005, the purchasing power of the average Zimbabwean had dropped to the same levels in real terms as 1953. Local residents have largely resorted to buying essentials from neighbouring Botswana, South Africa and Zambia."

So, what u can imagine when inflation rate happen at prices doubling every 1.3days? BOU LONG sesame chicken+Char SIew+ small rice will cost u RM4.50 on mon, Rm 9 on tues and RM18 on wed..wtf?! 
do want eat, drink Chinese Tea ice enough  which is RM0.40 on mon, RM0.80 on tue and Rm 1.60 on wed..>.<
by that time, the most porpular device will be 'money counter' that counts u got how many pieces of Rm50, everyone will be a billionaire, yeah!!!!

My fyp project, SMART filtration system technique.
I am trying my best to simplify the description as possible, coz too many technical terms will just make you who are reading scratching your head.. =p

During i proposing the project, everything is in my finger tips. i am with my full confident that i am going to make it.
The project is to creating a filter that will service itself and wash itself, either manually or automaticly by using switching control. Switching control mean all the control process and mechanism will be realised physically by using relays, switches and sensors.

>> 2 types of control process, 1 by software programming (create a program that will control everythg), another by hardware interlock control(using relays).

So, until like begining of OCt, a discussion was made between me and my supervisor about the reseach and design value for the project.
"The value is low if you are just using hardware where everyone can make it with current technology"
"It will be unecessary to use software programming if your process control is not complicated"
This was the 2 contradiction point i am having that time. Whether to control using just hardware or software?

My supervisor tell me that it is FINE for him if i stick back to the hardware control. At the same time, he encourage me to do software as it will SOUNDS better. Then he intro me to use Visual Basic to create my GUI (Graphical User Interface).
>>From the message that sent by my Supervisor, i upgrade my project.

SInce i have change my project's fundamental from hardware to software control, EVERYTHING CHANGE!!!

This is a difficult that i face the most, i heard Visual Basic (VB) and GUI, but i never know who are they (its normal for me, coz i hate reading, so my knowledge is so so so limited >.<) I get VB 6.0 from Sze Yoong, started to explore VB during the 1st week of my holiday. Meanwhile, i been doing research how to communicate parallel port (output for VB) from VB's program.

Other than the very basic program syntax and introduction for VB, actually i found nothing related with my project from notes getting from SY. Continuing searching from internet.......

p/s: luckily my house connection not bad, still mange to load those site faster compare to uniten >.<

the feeling is bad when you can't sleep at night, middle of the night when everyone is sleeping.

my mind keep thinking about my fyp, it is full of uncertainty..hope everythg will be alright when school reopen later...

When i am having my final, my mom called me and ask me to help to clean the house after the tenant moved out on OCT. Yes, she is informing me >.<

Well, it can consider a part of works that can filling up my holiday, a part of my 'cutting down FAT' project and some contribution to my family after i been not at home for so long (i going back to klang average once per month for last sem).

It is a good news for my mom when a malay teacher agree to rent the house since early NOV. But, it is a bad news for me when the new tenant says she is in urgent and need to move in 2 days later after she called my mom >.<

after dragging and discussing, she agreed to move in after 5 days.

and this 5 days is a night mare for me T_T

1st day, sweep, mop, wash the whole house - to avoid direct contact with the pesticide that sprayed a week ago
2nd day, start the painting job
3rd-4th day, continue the painting job.
5th day, repeat what i done on 1st day, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

the house not really big, 20x60, double storey terrace house.
together with my younger bro, we painted all the walls and the 'kekisi tingkap',
and my bro even skip his job when he going tuition...
poor me..muscle pain~

after getting the job done, released!!!

the main lesson,
do not invest on houses when you plan to rent them - alot of problems >.<

feeling lucky,
i am studying engineering, noneed to do PAINTING as my job in the future ^^

Few weeks ago, i have change my blog's layout.

Everythg is gone, all my gadgets, blog links,etc need to add back.

Few weeks after i change it, today FINALLY i got the mood to do it.

Everythg go smoothly, until i add the Nth blog link, the window box hang there...

no respond at all.

'click!' click! click!

end up by clicking the 'X' icon at the top right

oh my.....GERAM-nya~

Few days ago, i have read this article from Sin Chew Daily. This is really a very very good article that 100% telling us the fact and situation in our poor little country...

馬來西亞要晉身高所得的進步國家。
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
以下是真實故事：一名大馬政要到新加坡動心臟手術。
手術成功。正要康復期間，要向醫術高明的3位手術醫生，包括麻醉醫生，親自道謝。
他說道：“感謝新加坡的醫生……。”
“對不起，閣下，我來自馬來西亞。”一位醫生打岔。
“我也是。”
“我也是。”
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
一家大馬企業要在外國發展一個新市鎮，委託新加坡一家跨國公司規劃。
雙方第一次見面，新加坡公司派了7人高層隊伍，從總執行長、首席建築師，到財務主管，一字排開。
會談順利，大家放鬆心情，閒話家常。
大馬企業的主管說：“我老家在森美蘭州庇朥，那裡的榴槤最好吃，以後你們到馬來西亞，我請大家吃庇朥榴槤。”
“啊，你老家是在庇朥甚麼地方？我也是庇朥人。”
說話的是新加坡公司的那位總執行長。
接下來，七嘴八舌，另外那6名新加坡公司方精英紛紛報上身份。
“我是馬六甲人。”
“我來自霹靂江沙。”
“我在昔加末長大。”
“我的老家在……。”
一個不缺，完全都是馬來西亞製造。
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
類似故事，數之不盡。
故事的背後，另有故事。
一些人是被國內大學拒絕，一些是被政府獎學金拒絕。
10個A，比不上別人10個B；此處不留人，自有留人處。過一道長堤，是另一個世界。
每一個故事，每一個主角，都是一個感慨。
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
馬來西亞僱主聯合會統計，目前在國外就業的馬來西亞人，總數約78萬5000人，其中44%是在新加坡，其餘分佈在香港、中國、澳洲、英國、美國等。
在這之中，大約三分之二是專業人士。
與此同時，大馬的客工200萬人，多數來自印尼、孟加拉、緬甸、印度、越南。
他們從事勞力行業，不需要識字，只需要一點腦力；低技術、低知識，當然，低薪資。
馬來西亞成為出口腦力，入口勞力的國家；知識貿易出現嚴重逆差。
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
政府從2000年開始，鼓勵人才回流，提供各種獎掖，包括稅務優惠等條件。
快10年了，只有770人響應，平均每年約80人回國服務。這770人，只是海外數十萬人才的滄海一粟。
然而，即使這一小撮人，許多也是回了又走。
而許多年輕人，也未能在這裡圓夢，於是整理行裝，走向陌生的國度。
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
而他們說，大馬要成為高所得的進步國家。

-------------------------------------------------------
Malaysia want to be a country with high technology.

Below these are all true stories:
1 Malaysia politician want to go S'pore for heart operation.
Te operation was very suscessful. While recovering, the politician had met 3 doctors that involve in the operation to thank them.
he said, " thanks alot to doctors from S'pore.
"Sorry sir, I am from M'sia", said by one of the doctors
"Me too,"
"Me too,"
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
One of the Malaysia company plan to develope a new town in foreign, they have asked a S'pore international company to plan the layout.
Both companies executives have their 1st meet. 7 representatives from S'pore company includes, the director, the head of construction department, head of financial department,etc.
The meeting was very smooth, every one was relax and start to chat informally.
The director from Malaysia company said:" my hometown at Kuala Pilau, Seremban, the durians there is very nice, next time when you all visit m'sia, i treat you all.
"oh really? Your hometown at which part in Kuala Pilau? i am from Pilau too." said by s'pore company's director.
After this, another 6 representatives all telling where is their hometown...
"i am from Malacca,"
"i am from Kangsar,Perak"
" i am from Segamat,"
"i am from..."
ALL of them are MALAYSIAN

This kind of story is a lot.
Some are rejected by local Universities, some failed to get scholarship.
Our 10 As still seems loose by OTHERS' 10 Bs,
eventhough there are no place for us here,
after pass through the border at south,
there will always be another world waiting for us.
Every story, every people, is all a sigh with emotion.

i am not from a rich family.


Recently, i get the chance to mix with some really rich people.
off course, rich people are our parents-aged uncle and aunties.
a good chance for me to expose,
we are going to a talk together. The talk entitle : Share investment in China Market.
(these uncles, aunties not bcome very very rich bcoz of their carier, but bcoz of the share market)
below is part of the conversation that i heard when i was driving:


A: my new huz is renovating, i have spent 60k for the praying desk. now, i am looking for a JED guan yin ma. i ask POH KONG, the price is 33k+
B: wah, only praying desk so expensive?
A: ya, coz i been selecting the 'snail shells-fosil' tiles for it. that is very pretty...my husband also asking me why spend so much for this, no people will see it afterall as it is at the 1st floor.
C: yalo, then why u selecting that?
A: coz i pray there everyday, i want to see it, i like it, i replied my husband like that.


C: how is ur house at ECO park there?
A: still ok, but got a good news, the price for the land is increasing, we save up alot.
B: how much u bought last time?
(**rich people buy banglow, but very very rich people will buy a land and build their dream house)
A: last time is around RM120 per meter square, now is around 200+, so we really save alot.
B: wah, really save alot, but i got no choice, dy bought 1 at AMAN Pxxxx around 1+million.


i remain concentrate on driving throughout the whole journey.


all this while, i believe that the outshell is not really important, someone gain respect for they way they behave, the way they thinks and the knowledge they have. but it seems, the fact is still there. people still focusing on the outshell, the 1st image of u will determine whether they will mix with you.


 what a person u will be?
