I remember playing the Monopoly game when I was younger.
Now, Telekom, Satelite TV, Broadbands and Cars(by taxing more than 100% for imported cars) are using the same method to do business in Malaysia.
Anyone dares to say no to these services? Actually these service providers don't even care about their customers satisfaction or their product quality, as their business are all well protected, and there is no competition at all.
1)Telephone services- Telekom- the rest are small and some taking lease line from Telekom as well
2)Satelite TV- ASTRO- which the programmes are repeating over and pver again, and only now implementing HD which other country are already airing 3D a year ago. Tivo box? When I was studying in UK 10 years ago, they were already using it. We are just starting it now, as if its a new technology- Shame on you ASTRO!
3)Broadbands- Also Telekom(TMNET)- the rest of the service providers(Maxis, Digi-except Celcom are part of Telekom as well) are not really genuinely providing a proper amount of broadband services
4)Cars- Proton(an overprice locally made cars, even more expensive compare to the xport version with full safety features)
I was just thinking, how are we suppose to be a nation of having a freedom of speech if the basic mass comunication is monopolised and being controlled?
Just a simple thought of the day!

Taichi Masters
After working for so many years in different companies starting from a small position to a management level.
I came to realised that one of the Chinese martial art had been "发扬光大"-"Popularised" throughout Malaysian culture. Which is:
I am damn proud about it, cos not only this form of martial art should be perform in a balance manner ("YIN" and "YANG") mentally and physically, but it had also being implemented in all work place nowadays. Of course not to missed out, our politicians.
Kudos to those who practiced this "martial art" in your daily working life.

When everything is politicalised-Why?
Nowadays, everything in the newspaper headline are those propaganda made by those politicians.
Everyone is pointing fingers to each other, flaming each other endlessly.
How come our media becomes a tool of free "advertisements" for these people. Whereas, we have to pay thousand for RM just to have a half page of advertisements. And furtehrmore, most of the media nowadays had been controlled by some "dark forces" behind them which had somehow providing false accusation and bias reports.
It seems like our Malaysian politicians are becoming like little kids, arguing to each other and not wanting to "befriend" to one another. Why not just talk with facts and figures instead of just pointing fingers with denial and at the end of the day there is no outcome and problems are not solved.
Who actually suffers? Well, we(aka the Rakyat) are the ones suffering.
Why?
We are not really protected by any labour law, when it comes to employment,
1)no minimum wages standards,
2)no policies to restrict the companies to abuse their own workforce( you know like endless working hours with no extra pay). How many of you guys need to work more than 12 hours a day?
3)With all sorts of contract basis job offered by those MNC giants with no sense of job security. (They can retrench their workforce in thousands when they need to)- So, where is the sense of belongingness for the Rakyat? The politician will say that they had successfully bring in billions of Dollars of investment to the state or country from these GIANTS, but how about the after effects for those contract workers?
Endless inflation
1) Petrol price keeps hiking up(even though our politician had reassure us that there won;t be any price increment within a year)
2) Just realised that all the essential stuffs for daily consumption- (example:Food, drink, cooking oil)all prices had increased tremendously.
3) Prices of houses and cars is a joke
4) GST also increased? (What a joke as well)
Well, for these politician to do a better job, they should just focus on these two aspect first before trying to do something bigger. Like sending the useless "ANGKASAWAN" to the space with no contribution or building all sorts of rubbish buildings by spending billions of RM ( I think it is just like when our government project goes for a tender, the amount of money placed in a tender is just for show, the actual fact is, how much of the percentage is going to each individuals pockets, thats another story.
Really sometimes think that if Batman do exists...hahaha

I don't know symptoms
Seems like everyday we encounter the word "I don't know" from every related or non related individual in our lives.
I think it's been one of our daily motto(for alot of people)
For example:
1)
Me: "How long will take the "PR" to be approve?"(for my wife)
A "very helpful" immigration officer: "I don't know, Agak lama pun" -So which is which? took very long time? or don't know at all?
2)
Me: "When can I receive the actual items ?(for my customers)"
My warehouse staff(in HQ): "I don't know, when the item arrived from Hong Kong lo"
3)
Me: "What's the status of your XXX customers requirement?"
My Sales Staff: "I don't know, maybe (this reason) and maybe (that reason)"-uncertainty or not doing their job.
4)
Me: "May I know when will your management finalised the deal? Maybe I can prepare the items you need in advance?"
The customer: :"I don't know, we will need to wait lah"
5)
Me: "So what happen to this machine? "(concerning about our customers satisfaction towards my company's product, because it seems broken in an impossible manner)
The staff: "I don't know, It just became like that"-Huh? like that also can.
6)
When we are having a stock check and found some mistake and would like to clarify with my HQ,
My Staff: "Can I checked whether(3 moths ago) you had received any goods return to you?"
My HQ Warehouse: "I don't know lah, later I check, I let you know." But always this will be last answer we heard from them.
With so many "I don't know" everyday- some occasions if I am weak enough, I might vomit blood.
But I do find some specific occasions that this word does not come in use at all, especially when it comes to "Money". For some example:
1)
Police: "You sudah exceed speed limit, you tau?, so nak jadi kawan?"
Me: "Huh?"
Police: "jika saman RM300 (like my Sales Exec, show the highest price then lower down when request), bayar sekarang RM150."
Me: "Nevermind, saman shaja."
Police: "Betul ke nak saman? RM 100 pun boleh."
Me: KNN...(in my deepest thought)
At the end pay RM 80 at the Police counter.
2)
My Staff: "Why my pay is so little this month? why no commision?"
Me: (thinking that your sales result is not even good at all, somemore complain). "Err, last month you have no sales, so this month the company did not bank in any commision for you."
My Staff:" Eh! I thought the commision will bank in on the same month I do my sales?"
Me: "No, how can the company calculate the commision based on the same month when the closing is at the end of each month and your pay is being released on the 26th of every month" (rolleyes)
My Staff: "Oh, Like that lar"
Leaving me speechless...
