I am focusing on promoting Malaysian Bloggers Directory from now until end of September 2007, where this post will be on top of my latest post. After September we will see what happened.
Personally, I love the idea of this directory. The possibilities is endless, however whether ideas can be implemented or not is another issue. And the possibility of it being abuse is there. If all of us are responsible and sincere, we may be able to help to make this program, champion by an individual (enaizi), a success for the Malaysian Bloggers Community. Maybe a "single" huge voice of all the little little Malaysian Bloggers out here can be realised.
Below are some messages from enaizi the webmaster of MalaysianNetwork @ Malaysian Bloggers Directory . I am posting it here to so that we can understand enaizi explaination and vision. Do promote it on your blog too..... remember the possibility of a huge single voice is endless. Again my caution is not to abuse it.

Hi All
I'm the webmaster for the MalaysianNetwork.
This is a personal project that I've been working on in my free time for the last five years.
It started as a platform for me to try out new technology, especially RIA-based (Rich Internet Applications).
So DG, dont worry, its not {the government monitoring us.... "big brother"....}
but I guest it will make it easier for Muhammad son of Muhammad to find RPK's blogs for his next police report. :)
I developed a web crawler that starts from one blog and complile links from the blogs and continue to add more blogs.
So that's why inevetibly some non-malaysian blogs end up in the list.
Every day, just before I go for lunch, I'll start the crawler to update the lastest postings. By one hour, it will already indexed all the 2000+ active blogs.
No registration is required to include your blog. The registration is for members to access the online applications such as myOffice, myGroup etc, which will be available later. (Still under Beta testing)
For new blog, once added, it will be marked as "to be reviewed". Normally I will review them the same night.
Thank you.
One point is awarded for each visitors referred. More points equals higher ranking in the list.

The registration is not open yet. I disabled the register button but did not expect people to press [Enter]. You will be the first one to know once we are ready to accept new members.
Currently the online solutions are
available to selected groups. myOffice & myAccount for my two companies (50 staff), and the myGroup for my alumni association(4800 members). Trying to release it to the public by year end.
Thank you for your support
Have a wonderful life everybody!

When was the last time?
As I sat on the prayer mat this morning, after solat subuh, I pondered. Yeah time flies....
I am not getting any younger. Life has been great to me. Of course there are minor hiccups, but overall, alhamdulillah.
I am grateful to live to this age. Grateful for all that Allah has bestowed upon me. Grateful to be able to see, hear and feel His wondrous world. As a human being, I do want more......
So when was the last time I thought about death? Just to share a secret with you all, I thought about death everyday. Thus I do really appreciate life.
I am sure most of you has been at the door of death itself, or knows someone that already died or dying. Ever try sitting or laying beside a dying person imagining it is you? Do try....
I am a coward by nature. So am I afraid of death? Of course I am. Who doesn't? There might be some out there who is not afraid of death, but they have good reasons, and yet when death stares you in the face, that is the time when you know your true self.
But not to worry. From my own experience, as we grow older like I am, time will train us to embrace death. Somehow, we will come to term with death. It is something that all of us must go thru.
As for me, I pray Allah spare me a long agony death when my time comes. Make it swift and quick. InsyAllah.
The reason I am writing all these? Just to remind myself, death does not wait for anyone. Maybe, I can learn together with you all on your perspective about death?

Adikung.
Today I learn a new Bahasa Malaysia word. "Adikung. Seorang pegawai pembantu bagi seorang pegawai tinggi".

Who am I?
Just like the title of a movie not long ago. A Jackie Chan movie if I am not mistaken. Somehow he lost his memory.
Well I did not loose my memory. But there are at times I do not really know who I am? And sometimes, I thought I am that kind of person, but the society sees me differently.
Let me try to remember the words my friends use to describe me:
ENIGMA (I had to open a dictionary to understand the word). I think, he described me that way because I was unpredictable.
A FRIEND. That is how most of my friends described me. Not A GOOD FRIEND, but just A FRIEND.
Other than that I have not heard them describing me anything else. This must be because they do not want to embarrass me or due to my reputation. In my younger days, my reputation supersedes me. One crazy daring young arse!
But to tell you all the truth. I see myself as a loner. Does not need any friends to survive. Done lots of crazy things on my own. Travel all over the world on my own... not all over the world la.... Maybe half of the world....
Not to say I do not have friends. During my teenager years, whenever we need to rumble, there will be at least 20 of my friends ever ready to go to battle. And yet, I felt myself to be alone. Then the only real friend I had was one person that does not speak much, thus I do not feel he is around me.
I grew up a coward. Yes, I should know myself right. So how did I become one with such reputation of daring, brave leader..... ermm... it is only an act... or as I say it a mask we wear in front of others. I do not consider myself brave, but rather stupid. I remembered an incident, 2 against 20 and we went for it! That was not brave, that was suicidally stupid!
For years I only see the negative things about myself. Till I reckon one day, if I do not take care of myself, no one else will. I am a loner most of my life. Well at least I am a happy loner.
I use not to understand when a person could not go to lunch on his own. To me its normal. I can have lunch sitting alone at the table, and it does not bothers me. So many times my friends asked me how I can do that? To me it is a small matter, I am hungry, I eat. Alone or with lots of people, I do not really care.
Another thing that I do not understand when my friends told me, how do I make friends so easily? I never told them, but it is something that I do without even thinking. I can talk with anybody. Simple, if you do not know what to talk about, you listen. I realised not many of us want to listen.....
So now I am building up my good qualities. Yet, who knows what mask we wear everyday? Cheers to all of you, and have a great life!

Got Hantu Meh?
Friday nights after Terawih I think is a good time for some lepaking. So I stopped at one warung. I was not in the mood to talk or chat up anybody, so I just lepak. Life has been tense lately, so lepaking seems not a bad idea (even though that I am still not done with a few papers).
I ordered teh O tarik limau. While waiting for my drink (I was alone) when I overheard a group of 4 people, beside my table, talking a little bit out loud and laughing. So I pasang telinga la.
Apparently there were talking about eerie things.... This group of people, from what I can make out were from Perak and Selangor which is near the Perak border. So it seems .....
a) People there practice Santau. Just to test their power, they will try it out on unsuspecting strangers that passed by their village or towns. I learned some pointers that night. To check if Santau is performed or not, touch the bottom of the mug or cup. If the drink is supposedly hot, but the bottom is cold, or the opposite, the drink is cold, but the bottom is hot, better NOT drink! Best to say your prayers to our prophet SAW before drinking, and if there is element of Santau, the glass will break!
Symptoms of Santau is that the person will vomit blood immediately after consuming drinks or food laced with Santau.
b) It seems Hantu Raya also prevalent there. One of them was telling how late one night on a motorcycle, a person that died that day, was actually in the middle of the road blocking his way. The person looked the same as the decease accept he smelled chicken shit! The other person then told the story how a man that already died, scratched the walls of his house, and they actually gave the Hantu Raya some food to eat! The next person, guess not to be outdone, told the story of how, they were walking under some trees, late at night when suddenly it "rained" heavily. As they looked up, they saw a guy peeing! It resembles a guy that just died in the village.
My drink arrives at my table. It was hot. And I rub the bottom of the glass, ermm it is warm.... hehehe.... and the stories continue....
c) It is also norm, for the older generation to have "harimau jadian" as a pet. The problem is always when the owners passed away. The pet disturbed the villagers, and some shaman will then convinced the next of kin to take the pet, and it has been that way for generation. Some powerful shaman can discard these pets, I heard.
d) The guy from Selangor then told the story of a great shaman in his village. This person is so great that even mentioning his name, pelsit will run helter skelter! So a couple of years after the great shaman passed away, one woman was taken over by the pelsit. So many shaman tried but to no avail. The husband was about to give up, when out off no where he says, I will bring (the great shaman name). And the wife fainted. The pelsit gone.....
Yeah the stories does capture my attention. But seems far fetched....
e) The guy was telling a story about this bintang 3 person. How he was chased by the British army from Kedah and hid in Selangor, somewhere in 50s and 60s. With his own eyes and ears, late one night he saw that guy prayed on a hill at the fringe of the village. After praying, he stood up, and start talking out loud. It seems he was talking to his relative in Siam! Not only his voice can be heard clearly, but the other person voice from Siam can also be heard. Wow, there were already wireless 50 years ago!!!!
By then I am done with my drink. My eyes was getting tired and sleepy. The group were still talking on the topics, but I have to call it a night. Paid my drink and walked to my car. All the way to my house, I kept remembering "Jangan pandang belakang".

?
Went back from my last meeting (and unofficial interview, I am looking for a job) at about 4 30 am. Cooked some oat meals for my "sahur". Managed to sleep for nearly an hour..... then fell asleep in the toilet for a few more minutes....
I guess that is why I am kind of sad this morning due to lack of sleep? I am a man, that I know (Yeah confirm, after actually looking down there!). But how come I do feel hurt at times? Men are supposedly to be bad... mean ...
Men, we bring miseries to women. We make life hell for women. Ask any women, I am sure most of them have met an MCP at one time or another. Well (looking down there again, this time groping it...) confirmed I am a man.
Sorry if my post today is incoherent and pretentious... it is meant to be that way, to confuse and frustrate all the women in the world.
But I am still a man. And this one special lady, how can she hurts me?? With all the qualities of men in me, how did she manage to hurt me..... at this time and moment of my weakness? When so many times I informed her of my fragile situation....
Years of happiness, castles built in the air, yet she does hurt me. And she dont have to say a word to run havocs in my heart and mind. Do I have a mind today. Nah! Just my rambling due to lack of sleep. Let me sleep over it.....
Hey! I am a man!!! Or I am a male..? So what, after all we are only human.... we do have feelings and thoughts.

U Mobile.
Ah! I went to the MiTV launching of their 018 number! For a first timer attending some sort of launching by the Telco, I was quite impressed.
As I entered the venue, Manhattan Ballroom, Berjaya Hotel and Convention Center, there were already lots of people. Cant seem to recognise any of them. Guess it was not my crowd. Later I saw some of my former colleagues from IT industry.
There were clowns. Yeah actual clowns doing magic tricks and juggling, entertaining the crowd. But what caught my eyes were the "statues". Actual human acting like mannequin. I have to respect them to be able to stand still with their postures for so long. It must have hurt their muscles.
An interesting point, well the ladies were not so revealing.... but the men "statues" u can actually see the shape and size of their penis.... hehehehe.....
Later I saw that those "statues" were painted or wrote on by some individuals, with symbols of love, and encouragement....
Then the guest of honor turns up. He was only 40 minutes late... I have seen him giving his speech before. He does not mince his words, but somehow, I felt he is from a different era, but very comfortable in the future technology as he clowned and bashed the Telcos. Of course he got everyone's attention when he started his speech on "foreplay"....
What really impress me, was the 3D presentation. I felt (am) like a kampung boy! To see 3D we have to wear the 3D glasses. Nowadays, we dont have to. Looks like I am the one that is out of date!
I hope MiTV will deliver their offerings as promised, the convergence of mobile phone, internet and broadcasting. Well actually it is for all the Telco to deliver! And watch out for broadband packages and contents offerings!

Vanity Plates.
Yesterday first week of fasting, so I decided to go back to my village for breaking of fast. It is kind of sad and I felt so lonely everytime going back to my village. My parents no longer there....
But I would still go back whenever I could, especially the first week of Ramadhan. I can hear the walls echoing their talks and laughter while they were still around.... even if it is actually very quite. Maybe I blog about it some other time.
Back to the topic of the day. I was driving back when I saw this car. Its number plate TAH 1549. After a few seconds I was smiling to myself, I wonder who owns the number TAH 1?
Last week I saw on a BMW, MAK 1 somewhere in Taman Tun. Must be one brash tough guy. He must be proud of his achievement!
So long ago, parked in front of Medan MARA there was a Jaguar with a plate number MAT 1, if I am not mistaken.
And there was this Volvo with this number BCK 1100. Nothing fancy about the number. But the owner purposely put a very visible screw head in between the 11. So it looks like B C KHOO.
I have never seen it, but someone told me the story about the number plate BAB 1. The owner is actually smart and witty. He/she put it such that the BAB is on top and the 1 below. So it reads BAB Satu.
There you go folks, it is up to individuals who wants to be creative. Lets share your stories on these vanity number plates.....
Me... I was gunning for CBR 900. I guess some other lucky dude got the number on his CBR. Yeah I am biting my nails!!!!

May Your Fasting Makes You A Better Person.
Assalamualaikum to all my brothers and sisters in Islam. My prayers to all that is fasting today, and all that will fast this fasting month of Ramadhan. May Allah bless you all with all your prayers and make your wishes comes true. InsyAllah.
Wish I am an Ustaz, then I can give you all a better understanding why we are fasting. Other than of course it is requested by our religion.
What I understand is that, fasting is to make us a better person. Some of the things I can think of :
a) Appreciating those underprivileged people of their plights.
b) For us to control our wants and fancies. Not only our speech, sights and hearing.
c) For our health. Unfortunately some of us took the opportunity to have a feast every breaking of the fast.
d) For our monetary gain so that we can give more to those that needs it more than us.
I am sure there are more. Feels free to educate me and the rest. After all we are to learn everyday.
Last, my prayers to all that has not yet fast, I pray that you will start to fast. It is not for anyone else but yourself. I also pray that all mankind will live in peace. Amin.
Wassalam.

Last, my prayers to all that has not yet fast, I pray that you will start to fast. It is not for anyone else but yourself. I also pray that all mankind will live in peace. Amin.

Crystal Ball.
Ever wonder what is going to happen in your future? Or you would like to know what will happen to you, maybe this year? In your career or love life.....
Sorry I do not have a crystal ball, but I felt like my future life flashed by on Friday. More of my career path. We had our usual board meeting. I am not supposedly be in the board meeting as I am not the board!!!! Hehehe....
For reason only my MD really knows I do sit in the usual board meeting. Actually become his "macai", running around for him, preparing for the agenda coming up or even answering questions by the board. Actually sat in the board meeting and answer questions that the MD cannot answer!
So last Friday, I guess my sins caught up with me.
The Chairperson of our company, actually questioned my MD if he has done any wrong doing in the company.......
Out of frustration a few months back, I told the chairman during one of my update session with him, about little little things that is questionable in the office. It seems he took it seriously and questioned my MD. He gave my MD 2 weeks to answer.
Guess who has to help the MD answer those allegations? No one other than me....
Remember I was the one who actually updated the Chairperson on the wrongdoings of the MD? Now I have to help the MD answer those allegations! WTF!!
Hehehe... that is not so bad. If I read the Chairperson meanings in between the line, he wants the MD to get him involve on the sharing of the "cake"!!! I am done for!!!
Been months I am so tension looking for a new job. Now looks like I have to hasten my plan.... or worst, the bosses will boot me out soon. Wish me luck people, cause this time I really need it......
