Drive carefully 小心驾驶

I saw many damaged cars was being towed today, I saw an dead accident near my house yesterday, I read news regarding road accident everyday.

I met an accident long time ago. During that accident, my car was knocked by a motorcyclist who fetching 3 kids on it. I was a fast driver in the past, but after this accident, I drive very careful all the times.

Since I got my driving license, I always remind myself in other to be a safe driver. Sometimes, I drive very fast but I drive fast only when I am in rush. I drove after I drunk once in a time, I regret to did so and I swear not to do it again in the future.Be a safe driver, be a responsible driver. Care about your own safety, and care about your beloved concern.

今天我看见了多辆毁坏的汽车被拖吊，昨天我看到一场人命伤亡的意外。每一天翻开报纸，都有交通意外的新闻。

很久以前我遇到了一次车祸。当时，我的车子被一辆载着3名小孩的摩托车撞到。我曾经是一位高速驾驶者，在那次以外过后，我每一次都很小心驾驶。

自从我拿到驾照后，我都经常提醒我自己要做个安全驾驶者。有时候我会因为赶时间而高速驾驶。我也曾见有一次醉酒驾车，我很后悔也承诺以后不再重犯。做个安全的司机，做个负责人的司机。照顾自己的安全，也为你心爱的人着想。

Started My Job 开始我的工作

Since 1st October 2009, I was off from my jobless life and stepped into new work place. Actually, I had been interview by the Ministry of Housing and Local Government during August, and was confirmed by one of the staff from that department. Due to some technical problem, the appointment letter only come out on the 30th September 2009. Sigh! This is the effect of bureaucracy that always happen in government sector. However, after one month waiting, now I can declare that I am not longer jobless and I am now a government official.

The title of my position is Pegawai Kemajuan Perkampungan (PKP), which translate to English means New Villages Development Official. My job is become a bridge between 9 head of the villages (Ketua Masyarakat) in KulaiJaya and the Ministry of Housing and Local Government regarding the project for upgrading facilities in village area.

Thanks for those who had given me the chances to accept this position and I promised to try my best and contribute the abilities and capabilities I had to the social.

自从2009年10月1日开始，我已从无业游民身份踏入我的新工作岗位。其实，我在8月份就被房屋及地方政府部门面试，该份职业也在同个月份被确认。由于一些技术上的问题，我的委任状到了9月30日才被分发。感叹！这就是政府部门官僚制度的结果。无论如何，在一个月的等待过后，我能正式宣布我不再事业，现在我是政府官员。

我的工作名称叫做新村发展官。我的工作是成为9个古来再也县内新村村长与房屋及地方政府部之间的桥梁，作为各项新村区内提升设施工程的工作。

谢谢各位给于我这个机会接受这份工作的人，我也保证将会尽我所能贡献我所有的能力来为社会服务。

Let's start from anti-corruption 从杜绝贪污开始

During festivals, our traffic police will go for an "Attitude Action" which last for several weeks, so that people can reach their destination safe for vacation or going back hometown. However, 20 times "Attitude Action" was failed to amend people driving attitude, but the death rate was still very high.

There were about thousand road accidents in a day, and more than one hundred people died on the road accident.In my opinion, drivers' driving attitude was the main reason for accident.However, corruption is the main causes for having bad driving habit.

It is very simple theory. People will think that the traffic police road block is for extra income. Having this concept while driving is very dangerous, because if I made mistake, I can just apologise to the official, and pay some "coffee money", then everything settle. However, bribe is nothing, but disobey the rules is a way to harm people safety.

My further explanation is, if the traffic police reject bribery, the people will start worry about the huge figure of fine. By this, their willingness to follow the rules is booming.If everyone follow the rules, the chances for road accidents will decrease. This is a logical analysis. Other than reducing the chances for road accidents, if traffic police can keep themselves from corruption, their public image can be enhanced. It is one stone two birds for government while they wanted to introduce anti-corruption campaign.

I suggest government request the Malaysia Anti Corruption Commission (MACC) to check the traffic police road block without notification. Other than that, people should also reject bribing the official to settle the fine, because it may make anti-corruption campaign more effective. If not, people who always bribe but critics the traffic police from corruption is a very funny joke.

每逢过年过节，我国警方都会进行为期数星期的态度行动，以期国民在佳节度假或者回乡时，能平安抵达。然而，已经进行了20次的态度行动，并没有把人们的正确驾驶态度纠正，反而车祸死亡率高居不下。

一天内有上千起车祸，一星期内就有百余人断魂公路。这样惊人的数据，有将成为国外知晓马来西亚的另一个原因。我认为，公路使用者的驾驶态度是意外发生的最大因素。然而，养成公路使用者有如此的态度，贪污绝对是罪魁祸首。

其实道理很简单。现在国人普遍都认为交警设路障取缔违规者，都是为了“增加收入”。带着这样的念头来驾驶交通工具非常危险，因为我犯错，只要我跟警官认错，再奉上一些“咖啡钱”，就能安然过关。但是，违反交通规则后贿赂是小，它暗藏着危害他人生命安全才是最可怕的。

我的解释是，如果交警没有接受贿赂，那么人们就会开始担心无法缴付数额庞大的罚单。有了这样的担忧，那么遵从交通规则的意愿也就随之产生。大家都遵从交通规则，那么交通意外就能大大减低其发生的机率。这样的推断，是非常逻辑的。除了能够减低交通意外发生的机率外，交警如果能够杜绝贿赂行为，那么他们的公信力也能大大提升。这对于政府肃贪的意愿有着辅助作用。一举两得！

为此，我建议政府能够指示反贪污局突击到交警设路障的地点进行检举，彻底杜绝交警贪污事件。此外，公众人士也应该拒绝以贿款方式解决违规罚单，才能让肃贪的行动达到事半功倍的效果。否则，本身的贿赂行动将和成日批判交警贪污的举动大相径庭。

What's the People Want? 人民要的是什么？

The by-election in Permatang Pasir ended up with PAS winning the seat with the majority of 4000+ votes. This was the 8th by-election after 8th March 2008 general election. Barisan National, who is the rulling party had lost seven out of eight by-election.

What conclusion can we have by looking at this result?

From my personal point of view, Barisan National made the many Malaysian lost confident and disapointed. Malaysian suffering from the unsecured situation as robberies and criminal cases had reached a emergency level. Other than that, many political issues, such as PKFZ cases, MACC cases etc also let people feel the current government seem not able to overcome these problems. People start looking for alternative option, and supporting Pakatan Rakyat because they hope they can do better, but not in deed agree with their concept of governing a country.

Actually Barisan National is not bad, the leaders from the basic level had always try their best to help the people. People appreciated that, but they might not satisfied with the big issues at the country level.

What people need now? I think the answer can be very easy. Just a stable, clean, fair and prosperity country. I do hope that our new Prime Minister can listen to the people needs and come out with more beneficial policy. I think within 3 years, while people can see the changes, it might cure the worse situation that Barisan National faced now.

今天在柏马当巴溪的补选由回教党以4000多张的多数票胜出。这是自308以来第八场补选。而国阵，身为执政党，在8场补选中输掉了7场。

从这个情况，我们能够得到什么结论？

从我个人的观点来看，国阵让许多马来西亚人失望且失去了信心。人民在抢劫及罪案到达了紧急状况中受苦。除此之外，许多政治课题，例如巴生港口自由贸易区案子，反贪污局赵明福案子等让人民觉得国阵政府没有办法解决。人民开始寻找替代选择，支持民联，因为他们希望他们能做得更好。但是他们并非认同民联的政治理念。

其实国阵不是那么的糟糕，一些基层领袖也竭尽所能来帮助人们。大家对他们很是感激，但是却可能对一些国家级的大课题表示不满。

人民要的是什么？我觉得答案很简单，只是一个稳定，廉洁，公平和繁荣的国家。我希望我国的新首相可以聆听人民的需要而做出惠民的措施。我想不用3年，当人民看到了改变，就能够挽救国阵现在面对的劣势了。

I am back 我回来了

Hello everyone, I am back! After three weeks travelling, I am now in Kuala Lumpur. Where I had been and what happened during this period? Let me share with you.

I went Myanmar for 2 weeks. I stayed in Mandalay, which is the second largest city of Myanmar. Even though it is "large", but it considered under developed area, compare to Malaysia. There are many Chinese, so we can communicate in Mandarin. The most interesting thing there is their eletricity supply. They are not provided with full day eletricity supply, but only certain hours in a day (6am-11am and 5pm-11pm). However, the people there are very friendly. The most unforgetable memory for me there was the fighting games which I never experience it in Malaysia. Other than that, I also travel to another city by sitting at the top of the trucks for 3 hours. All these are good experience to my life.

Soon after I came back from Myanmar, I went to Taipei. I been to the town area of Taipei, visited Taipei 101 tower, Shi Ling night market, Taipei Zoo (Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan are there), Wu Fen Pu, Leo Foo Village Theme Park, Shi Da night market, Ye Liu (Queen Head), Jiu Fen, National Taiwan University, Xin Guang San Yue Shopping Mall, Xi Men Ting, Cheng Pin Bookstore, Mei Lee Hua, mesuem, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, Chiang Kai-shek memorial hall, Dan Shui and also hot spring (spa). We took MRT all the times, and took buses sometimes. This is my first backpacker travel, and I did lead my travel partner in the wrong way. I bought a lot of things back, so do my travel partner. Thanks Wyemun for taking care of me for the 8 days in Taipei. I would also like to make my sincere apologise to you if I make you annoy during the trip. I would also like to thanks Jia Yee, Tian Swee, Rou Yuan, and Nikki for accompany me.

Everything is finished. Now is my time to face the "fact". I collected my certificate for my degree this morning, and I will go for an interview session tomorrow morning. Good luck to myself.

哈喽！各位，我回来了！经过了三个星期的“远走天涯”，我先在已经回到了吉隆坡。这段期间我去了那里？做了些什么？让我来跟你们分享。

我去了缅甸2个星期。在那里，我住在瓦城（曼德勒），是缅甸第二大城市。虽然是大城市，但是和马来西亚相较之下，还是非常地贫苦落后。那里有很多华人，所以我们能够用华文来交谈。在那里最有趣的事情是他们的电流供应。他们没有全日的电流供应，而只是不分时段（早上6点到11点，下午5点到晚上11点）。但是那里的人都很友善。而让我最难忘的事情是我在马来西亚没有主吹过的打架球赛。此外，我也有机会坐在罗里车顶到另外一个城市旅行，历时3小时。这些都是我人生很美好的经历。

当我从缅甸回来后第二天，我就直接前往台北。我们去了台北市，参观101大楼，士林夜市，台北动物园（团团圆圆也在那里），五分埔，六福村主题乐园，师大夜市，野柳（女皇头），九分，台湾大学，新光三越，西门町，诚品书店，美丽华摩天轮，故宫博物院，中正纪念堂，国父纪念馆，淡水，和温泉。我们多数时间搭捷运，有时搭巴士。这是我第一次背包旅行，也让我的同伴走了许多冤枉路。谢谢wyemun8天来的照顾，如果在旅程中让你不开心，请原谅我哦！我也要写写珈瑜、天瑞、若瑗和Nikki的陪伴。

一切都结束了。现在是我面对现实的时候了。今早我那了我的大学证书，而明天将会去面试了。祝福我吧！

Leaving 出发咯！

I am leaving from my lovely hometown to KL tomorrow morning. My flight to Myanmar is on Monday morning, and coming back on 27th July. My flight to Taiwan is on 28th July morning, and coming back on 4th August. I promise to take many picture back from both Myanmar and Taiwan and share it to everyone who are here.

Don't miss me too much~ I will be back soon~ Take care everyone.

我明天即将从我可爱的家园出发到吉隆坡。我前往缅甸的飞机是星期一早上，而回程则是在7月27日。我前往台湾的航班是在7月28日早上，而回程是在8月4日。我答应各位会拍多多美丽的照片回来跟大家分享。

不要太想念我哦！我去去就来。各位保重！

ISA, should be abolished or amended? 内安法令，应该废除还是修改？

Internal Security Act (ISA) had been debated by both ruling and opposition parties, whether it should be abolished or amended. As we know, from the recent cases, ISA had become a tool that only for arresting someone who have different political view, and even reporter. Supporters of those being arrested had organised assembly to express their support to those being arrested under ISA.

I personally feel that, ISA is an act to protect social security when it first being intorduced. It should not be abolished. Maybe many people will disagree with my point of view, but think about it when you read the following example.

2 weeks ago, I heard this from a politician who also claim that ISA should be amended but not abolished. He said that, people annoyed with this act is due to the abuse usage of the act. People resistance created when their leaders being arrested under this act but they do nothing to threatening the country safety.

However, think carefully, not every actions under ISA were wrong. Many people had assemble and light white candle to appeal the government to release the reporter who was is inability to threaten the country safety, but no people did the same thing while Mat Selamat, the member of terrorist, was being arrested under ISA.

From the point mentioned above, we can know that ISA was not a bad act but the fault was its implementation. The existence of ISA is essential to protect our social security. Here, we can conclude that ISA should be amended, not like what opposition parties claim to be abolised, in order to prevent the act continuing being abuse by some parties, and at the same time protect our home country safety always.

内安法令已经被朝野政党争辩，是否应该废除或者修改。我们都知道，最近几个案例，内安法令成为了一个逮捕政治立场对立的人士，或是记者。这些人士的支持者也举行了集会来声援被捕人士。

我个人认为，内安法令当初成立的目的是为了保护社会秩序。这不应该被废除。很多人或许会不同意我的看法，但是请在看了以下例子后重新思考这个问题。

2个星期前，我听了一位主张修改内安法令的政治人物的演说。他说，人们会厌烦这个法令是因为这法令遭到滥用。人们的反对声是因他们的领袖在没有威胁国家安全的情况下被捕而起。

但是，我们必须想一想，不是每一个内安法令的行动都是错误的。很多人聚集在一起点白蜡烛要求政府释放那位无力威胁国家安全的记者，但是却没有人在恐怖分子Mat Selamat在内安法令下被捕的时候做出相同的事情。

从这个观点，我们就能知道其实内安法令不是一个不好的法令，但是他的执行出现了偏差。内安法令的存在的确能保障社会安宁。因此，我们可以总结，内安法令应该被修改，而不是像反对党主张的废除，以便这个法令能够防止被一些人滥用，同时保护我们的家园。
