2014 holiday season is looming and the mood is already here...
People are taking 'mandatory' annual leaves all over the place.
I went to Amway (Jalan 223)to collect items, but was met with too big a crowd and too slow the processing - seems like the workers have gone on mandatory holiday.
Anyway, what I saw over there was 1Malaysia - national unity - nobody actually complains.
Happy festive season to you all!!!

Responsibility is a BIG word
According to a report by USA Today, Park Geun-hye proposed to disband the coast guard after their seemingly failure to respond to the ferry disaster that left more than 300 people dead or missing.
"The final responsibility for not properly dealing with this incident is placed on me," Park Geun-hye said.

Kidney Transplant Recipients Feel Grateful For Her Life
When Lim Chu Ee was 10 years old, she suffered a viral fever, which left her weak and unable to lead a normal life. Little did she realise that it would be a life changing experience. Enrolled into a Chinese school, and enjoying her life as a school girl, with many friends and a happy family, it was an earth shattering experience to be informed by her doctor that her kidneys had failed as a result of the illness.
Out of the blue in 1996, her parents received a phone call requesting them to make a trip to KL as a child had died and the parents were willing to donate her kidneys. Lim and her parents made the journey, hoping for good news and they were not disappointed. Lim was one of the lucky recipients and the other kidney went to another school girl, known only to Lim as 'Haslina' They became good friends over the 3 months hospitalized in HKL.

Bad Investment Choice, IQ Can Be Trained Up!!
Refer to 'Billionaire willing to pay RM100K for young, high IQ and fair ovum donor'
You can train up good IQ, no need to look for it. But it will require time, just like building up your muscle.
IQ is just a state of mind, it is how you think and react.
High EQ people are passionate people, because their thinking are based on feelings.
High IQ people are the opposite.
One way to train up your IQ is to play computer strategy games.
Why ?
Because it will put you into training ground for the following scenario.

Captain America - From Childhood Hero To Hopes
I was borned in 1970(s).
Like many others, I grew up reading comic books such as spiderman, fantastic four and of course Captain America. Captain America was really popular when I was in my primary school, not sure why, I even had a costume of it; I remember.
Now, after 30 years, Hollywood finally made a film out of it and it is played by an actor younger than me.
Captain America; The First Avengers is a great movie, you should go and watch it. It comprises of mixture of drama, love story, fantasy and probably scientific hopes for mankind evolution.
The actors played their roles well, especially Hayley Atwell who plays Peggy Carter; love interest of Captain America.
Chris Evans performs well too, he is able to portray a sickly young man who understands pain and later being transformed into a 'superman' figure who demonstrated the great strength, compassionate and humanity. For some reasons, Evans has that kind of look. I think he is a great actor.
In terms of acting, my favourite is between Tommy Lee Jones (who plays Col. Chester Phillips) and Stanley Tucci (who plays Dr. Abraham Erskine). I think I will pick Tucci for the oscar.
Also, Hugo Weaving plays the villain really well, he is a very talented actor.
For my part, the entertainment values come more from Hayley Atwell. She is an absolute success in this movie; A+++.
This movie tells that love story in the oldies are much better, even though clouded by wars and etc. Love stories then were more pure and happy as contrast to today's complicated humanity.
The one thing I want to stress about is hope. I have a reason to believe that ultimately, all mankind should strive to improve themselves. If you are weak in one area, you should and can always strive to improve on that area. It is the answer to every questions in this human age. And if you mixed it with love, political wars, friendship, science, idealogy and humanity, it is called life.
Fundamentally, it parallels with religions which touch on the reincarnation focusing on the point that what lies ahead is for becoming a more superior beings. From Animal realms to human being realms to heavenly realms and so on and so forth. Means, if you are now a human, you don't really want to become a fish, you prefer to go up with higher intelligence capability. If you are a fish, you would most likely wanted to become a human being. So, the right path is always becoming a stronger and better beings with higher level of consciousness.
Also, I think there is something to cherish that the world has to wait for more than 30 years, in order for Chris Evans to be borned, and to play this role. To me, that is called amazing. Why don't they let me play the role ? You know what I am saying ?
You should watch it. Thumbs Up :D

Lee Was on Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) for five years before he underwent a transplant
Taken from NKF Shared Issue 2 2011 (PP9314/08/2001 (028834)).
Lee was one of the lucky ones when on July 27 1996, his fortunes changes for the better. An American expatriate died of stroke at the age of 56 and the most eligible recipient at the time turned out to be Lee. Lee therefore received a new kidney and with that came a new lease of life for his wife and twin daughters.

生命之美
生命的意义是一个大智慧。
奇迹，期待，爱情。。。 虽是无常，是空，但也是一种美。
万事未到终点，皆不定。
企业虽是生活必有。
但我认为生命之美，不须与企业原则沟在一起。
企业，若是拥有奇迹，期待，爱情等等，不一定行得通；不一定如法。企业的那一套，应该是踏实，策划，眼光等等。
奇迹，期待，爱情。。。是值得的。

I would say that it is because the economy is not big enough to sustain everybody.
We need to spike up economy and bring it to a more global scale.

NKF Spent RM 81,120.00 From Jan-April 2011 to Provide 100% Subsidy on Dialysis Treatment
Taken from NKF Shared Issue 2 2011 (PP9314/08/2001 (028834)).
Life has not been a bed of roses for LIm as a result of a bad accident in 2007, which injured his kidneys and left him jobless.
There are many patients such as Lim who need help on a daily basis, many lose their jobs when they are on dialysis and without financial assistance it would be impossible for them to afford dialysis while managing their families.

My Comment On Kin says sorry to kindie
Refer to 'Kin says sorry to kindie'
If you care to look around, I would say that in Malaysia, this is just tip of the iceberg.
This reminds me of one of my favourite song;上海滩。
Or I really want to emphasize that this society needs love and real friendship.
It is timely to say that it is why we need places like Fo Guang Shan and etc which the door must always be left open to all.
I still remember a venerable from Fo Guang Shan said this.
相聚总是因缘，是好是坏，一念之别。
This is very true, we must have the courage to love.

浪奔浪流
万里滔滔江水永不休
淘尽了世间事
混作滔滔一片潮流
是喜是愁
浪里分不清欢笑悲忧
成功失败
浪里看不出有未有
爱你恨你
问君知否
似大江一发不收转千弯转千滩
亦未平复此中争斗
又有喜又有愁
就算分不清欢笑悲忧仍愿翻百千浪
在我心中起伏够
万里滔滔江水永不休
淘尽了世间事
混作滔滔一片潮流
是喜是愁

Makna : Life Goes On
Taken from Makna Neoplasia Issues 01/2011
It has been 15 years since the cancer diagnosis. Although her initial doctors could not promise her anything, her determination and strength has allowed her to survive. When she was first diagnosed, her children were very young. Although she never said much, I sensed that she fought her cancer as she was unwilling to miss out the growing years of her children. Due to her determination, my sister not only bought up her three kids, witnessed the marriage of her two children and today is a happy grandmother to her grand-daughter and is hanging on strongly on every thread as to see her youngest daughter who is her precious caregiver to be married off soon. - Shanti Michael (shanti.michael@hotmail.com)

You've strike 1st prize with a prize money of cash.
Got this from email. I think this is useful.
Any cheque banked in into your account need a few days to transact. Although the amount appears in your account, but it's still pending for transaction, the person issuing the cheque can cancel the cheque at any time! A few days ago, one of my friends received a sms with the message: "You've strike 1st prize with a prize money of RMB200,000 cash." The sms came with a contact no. My friend ignored it since he had heard of too many bogus scams using similar tactics.
After a short while his handphone rang, a Miss Fang asked: "Sir have you received a sms telling you that you've strike 1st prize?"
My friend answered: "Yes, I have".
Miss Fang: "Please let us have your bank account number so that we can deposit the money into your account."
My friend thought, why not, let's see what you can do. My friend has a buddy who works in that bank. Hence, he gave her his account number. Ten minutes later, my friend's handphone started ringing again.
Miss Fang said: "Sir, we have deposited your prize money into your account, please check and verify."
My friend checked using his handphone and found that RMB 200,000 was really deposited into his account. He was euphoric, just like that and he's RMB 200,000 richer! 30 minutes later, Miss Fang called again. She was crying: "I'm sorry sir, I made a mistake, I forgot to deduct the tax before I deposited the prize money, 20% of RMB 200,000 equals to RMB40,000. Now the company wants me to reimburse the money. Can you please return the RMB 40,000 tax? I beg you."
My friend thought for a while and felt pity for the lady. Thinking of the money in his bank account, he went to the bank. Suddenly he thought of his buddy working in that bank and decided to ask his buddy to double check and confirm with him first. Upon checking, his buddy found out that the money was deposited using a cheque of a different bank. Even though the cheque was deposited but the actual amount of money can't be transfered into his account on the same day. If the other party decided to cancel the cheque, then he'll not get this RMB 200,000. My friend was shocked. He almost lost RMB 40,000. Before my friend left for home on that day, the cheque was actually cancelled. If not for his buddy, if not for him being a professional, or if he was cared of letting others know of striking the prize then this bogus scam would be successful.
This is a true story, please beware. Future scams could be even better planned. Please don't forget to forward to your friends and relatives to warn them from being cheated.
