Takzirah utk Orang Pencen. Ridhuan Tee, 22 Dis 2014

Dulunya ramai diantara mereka dikerumuni orang bawahan diarah kesana kemari. Perahu tidak berani digoncang kiranya perlu. Pangkat lagi dikejar. Status quo adalah jalan selamat. Kalau ada kesilapan tuding jari orang bawah. Maka herd mentality menebal. Selepas pencen pun ikut herd mentality. Kalau berseorang tidak berani bersuara. Sudah kepuncak susah jadi orang biasa buat amalan biasa. Masih hendak disanjung. Mencari isu tidak kena tempat, tidak berlandaskan bumi dipijak. Pemikiran dan hidup masih diawang2an? Walla hu alam.

It is a historical fact that the Malays on the whole are moderates in their way of life. Unavoidably, there are extremism here and there as expected in any society. Following the middle part (being moderate) as followers of Islam is a crucial factor why they manage to adapt, acquiesce, and survive confrontations against conquering forces such the Siamese and later on the Europeans. The intruders have no reason to exterminate the local populace unlike what happened to the Red Indians or Maoris.

In a wider perspective we are living in a vicious world around stoked by agendas and falsities of power, greed, ideologies, imperialism, religion that lead to confusion of the purpose of humane existence but more towards nihilism. If we are ignorant and somehow we get caught in such vortex of mankind failings then gradually we will be in sucked into destructive mode to go after each others throat. It is easy to forget that there is whole gamut of interplay of human qualities - knowledge, wisdom, tolerance, understanding, give and take, discipline, patience, mutual respect, good governance, unto you your religion, and such at conscious or subconscious level to make for harmonious living.

All communities react to extremism. It is a vicious cycle and goes full circle

Ketua Kampong, JKK, dan Politik Perpecahan UMNO. SakmongkolA47, 17 Dis 2014

Saban hari kuasa digunakan untuk menguatkan cengkaman kerana hokap jawatan. Penduduk menjadi mangsa collateral damage. UMNO akan tersungkam dengan sendirinya kerana politik kotoran akarumbinya seperti perlantikan JKKK yang disebutkan. 

Jawatankuasa masjid pun telah lama dipolitikan. Ketua Cawangan/Bahagian meletakan kuncu2 mereka sebagai pengerusi dan ahli JK. Oleh itu JK masjid tidak mengadakan mesyuarat dan perlantikan. Akaun tidak ketentuan. Qariah berpecah belah

Muhyidin mahu orang pencen gunakan kepakaran dan pengalaman untuk membangunkan negara. Maka lantas Kumpulan 25 angkat bakul sendiri dan bersuara. Kalau berseorangan tidak pernah bersuara. Ada elemen herd mentality!

Masa berjawatan ramai orang bawahan buat kerja ikut arahan. Boss dapat Tan Sri. Sudah pencen nak buat apa? Main golf? Cari kerja dan glamour? Ilmu kalau banyak elok dibukukan. Baru diakui ternama oleh khalayak ramai.

WHEN IN NEW ZEALAND VISIT MY FARM

Homestead and sheep farm on rolling landscape.

Roadside marketing of fresh fruits by the farm.

Grape after hard pruning.

 Training and pruning of tree tomato to increase fruit yield.

Wish I have such beautiful farms for visitation! Sorry for the disappointment. The closest I could get to temperate/subtropical small scale cultivation was in Cameron Highlands  - growing apple, strawberries, persimmon, strawberry guava, cabbages.

LIFE ON THE RIVERS OF SARAWAK

The large island of Borneo is akin to the Amazon of the East where the thick jungle is criss-crossed by many rivers and their tributaries meandering from the mountains to the sea (pic Sarawak coast).

Melanau fishermen living by Sg. Igan. The livelihood of Melanaus is always close to the water - rivers and seas.

Rivers are a means of transportation to the hinterland.

Villagers (Melanaus) use the streams and rivers to float sago logs to sago factories, Mukah (pic Melanau elderly lady tending sago logs).

Rivers provide income, recreation and beautification of the natural landscape (pic late afternoon at Kuching riverbank).

UMNOcentric makin menjadi. UMNO bukan Malaysia. KJ kata letak Pemuda UMNO menerajui GLC. GLC kepunyaan semua rakyat. Seharusnya sesiapa sahaja yang layak boleh menjadi CEO GLC

Muhyidin suruh UMNO cari "Wow" dan dapat RM10,000 upah. Duit, duit. (Seolah, wow, wow, give a dog a bone!). Beliau tiada wow kah? Atau rakyat lain dalam Malaysia ini tidak ada wow nak lontar?

Dahlah kepala ikan U busuk, badan hingga ekor pun busuk.
