Happy International Women's Day

It was the International Women's Day yesterday (which is about two hours ago when I blogging this). And it was the significant day of the oppositional party in Malaysia three years ago. And it also refers to a "Freedom Striving Day". I saw a news in Sinchew Daily (online) and there is an article regarding women in the Middle East countries who stand out to the street and fight for their freedom, from ladies dressed in T-shirt and jeans to ladies who in black Hijab.


I felt extremely touching when I saw the word of "hijab". I have always read that Muslim women are conservative and they are just obey to their husband. To them, freedom is nothing and perhaps impossible for them in their whole life. However, when I read this, I know women nowadays, are empowered.


Women are trying to stand up and saying that " We are actually capable and we have our right to decide our faith and even involve in the movement of transforming the world."


Women's right, is to enjoy the basic liberty like men enjoying. Everyone are equal and share the common perception and mindset, but not only all about men, in a country. I feel appreciated as the country that I stay does not have such restrictions.


Yet, to clarify, many women who chasing for women's right, mistaken the rights as to control men, to step them under women's feet. To ask them obeying to women. This is something that I strongly disagree with, though I am a lady (not woman yet), and I even despising it. This is no longer called women's right but women's arrogant. We shout for equality between man and woman, but those are practicing the contrary behaviour. Then what is equality?


I understand, in some ways, woman couldn't alike man, in terms of physical strength for example. However, in this technology booming era, everything can be overcame with just a "click" or in this civilize society, everything is not a problem with a brain.


Equality and freedom....Let us work together to accomplish a society with equality and freedom.
And it is time for me to get back in my assignment. All the best~

Sentence of the week

The sentence that impressed me a lot this week is not " Go fuck yourself with your atom boom" which I heard from Communication Law lecturer but " I know you guys don't like politics" from the lecturer of Politics and the Media.

It sounds sarcastic especially when words came from Mr. Kuan who showed us the website of "Lao Zha Bo" from Singapore later and said we like that kind of website than political's.

Although I know many students on the spot are actually enthusiastic in Politics yet at the same time, many people are sharing the mindset like what Mr. Kuan said. I could not admit that I chose to minor in Advertising because of my hatred toward politics and frightened of the evil face of the politicians. Yet I just can't deny that I have started falling in love with Politics, of course not involving but studying.

Nonetheless, the zeal still could not pull me out from the hatred of politics, especially the incident happened currently that made me questioning the trustworthiness of a politician. Yet as a professional journalist (to-be), I will not resist from taking any job that deal with politicians (such as interviewing them), and I will try my best to uphold the profession of a journalist.

"Jama" (Jamaluddin Ibrahim) has established an online radio channel which named "DurianFm.com". The concept of the radio channel is good which is to uphold the basic liberty of the people- Freedom of speech. As one who cherished for freedom, I am fully supporting him (that I have even purposely search for the radio channel website and click "like"). However, I sincerely hope that he can keep his concept straight. Freedom of speech doesn't mean to attacking government. It is about objectivity and telling the truth. It is pretty annoying if the media criticizing one just because to criticize but ignoring one's contributions. Then it is nothing different from the mainstream media which controlled by the ruling party. Then it is not more what we call it "Freedom of speech". Let's wish "DurianFm.com" to operate smoothly and successfully achieve their mission.

Let's sama-same upholding our basic liberty~

Freedom, long live~

Keep the root...

Our former neighbour visited us last night. It is an Indian family. The only way for us, the two families to keep in touch is when the festive season come and we tend to visit each others' house every year. We went to their house during Deepavali and vice versa that they visit us during Chinese New Year even though we have moved out from Taman Andalas where we stayed previously.

Uncle Morgan, the father of the family is a nice old man ( who actually not looking old). He talked a lot to my brother last night, about politic. I hate politic. My hatred towards it can be seen through my selection of minoring Advertising instead of political science. However, I do love to listen political issues as an entertainment.

I feel pleasure too when listening people around me talk about politic. I, sometimes hate myself for being so dislike politic and so unfamiliar with the politic, especially Malaysia's politic, but I can't help. Thus when I know people around me are care of the politic of Malaysia, I am indeed happy for them. At least someone care for the country.

This is same to the conversation between Uncle Morgan and my brother. Uncle Morgan who as an Indian. felt the inequality of the races, in terms of any application from government, power to speak and so on. He was disappointed with the government and also care of the population of Chinese and Indian. He has even encouraged my sister and brother to get marry and give birth in order to increase the population of our root.

However, to the dismay, many people, especially Chinese, refuse to have more kids due to the financial burden and also their own freedom. They feel that their freedom is being tied after having kids.  Some, even do not want to get marry, to pursue their dream.

Many Chinese nowadays refuse to receive Chinese education. One of my Primary school classmate even said that he doesn't want to study Chinese. When every Chinese in our country holds this perception, will there any Chinese school or Chinese based organisation be conducted in our country? Is Chinese New Year will be celebrated in Malaysia anymore? The blood of Chinese is flowing in our body. The mind of Chinese we are having, though being modernized. We should always be proud of being a Chinese, and even be proud of being a Malaysian.

My brother told us that many Chinese intend to move oversea. They said Malaysia does not appreciate genius. However, they will never know how the foreign countries look at whom are moving to their country. Even though they are rich enough to move to their country yet they will only be the second class resident of the country, always.

I wonder, if this circumstance sustains and not get any improved, what will be happened to our Chinese community in the future.

嘟嘟嘟，火车开动了

这个假期，麻雀比起以往，多了许多乘搭公共交通的机会，尤其是KTM。
而举凡搭过KTM的大马人或旅客，必定会知道近几年来多了Lady Couch这个服务。
Lady Couch，女人包厢，顾名思义，是女生专用的车厢，反之就是男人不能踏进的车厢。Lady Couch多在列车的中间部分，外面贴了其双马来文与英文的海报兼告示，以提醒公众。
然而所提供的这个方便，并不是每个人都遵从。
好几次，在乘搭女人包厢时，都会瞥见三五只小猫般的男人出现在包厢内。明明就不是身形娇小的小男人或抹上粉彩的假女人，但却大摇大摆地走进女人包厢。这个时候，麻雀最爱环顾周围的乘客。每个女人都会表现出一副不屑且藐视的嘴脸。我该照一照镜子，看是否自己也是如此。
然而，不知是瞧不见抑或是装着的，男人依旧坦然得找着座位，一屁股就霸占了那些位子。
这一天，麻雀还是乘搭KTM到吉隆坡去。同样的场景还在重复着。包厢里几个男人的身影依旧是无可避免的。麻雀忘了用镜子照照自己的表情，便找了一个依靠着窗口的位子，坐了下来。接下来的几站，男人就像完全看不懂告示的指示一样，如此豪迈的步入车厢。麻雀在想，难道马来西亚的文盲率如此之高？
而，就在大伙儿坐着，等着火车继续前进的当儿，火车的广播器“嗒嗒”地发出声音来。广播器报告着：To all passengers, lady couch is only for ladies. Men are prohibited to enter. If not, the officer will take action. Thanks. 报告以双语来传达。
麻雀赶紧抬起头，望向车厢的男人们。只见男人们焦虑的表情，大家互看了对方，便即刻站起身子，就像大狼夹着尾巴般得逃出包厢。看在麻雀眼里，着实有种鸟兽作散的感觉。对他们，有种抱歉但放心的双重情绪。
麻雀，趁着前往吉隆坡的路上，仔细想了想这套方式。
女人在这个社会里，难免会遇到吃亏之事。在这个大家嚷着要平等的社会里，女人们也站出来，高声喊着男女平等的口号，而女人包厢的出现，又是否会与男女平等的理论，打着对台呢？男人包厢，会不会在下一刻出现？
在一个拥挤的男女共用包厢里，女人吃尽了亏。一些邪念的男人会有意而无意地，“不小心”碰撞到与其挤成沙丁鱼的女人。女人，哑口无言。不知如何是好。或怒瞪男人但却採无方法；抑或压抑自己的无奈，把“小事”化成“无事”。
麻雀曾经经历。那一次与友人从云的顶端回来，乘搭KTM回巴生。碰巧遇上了放工的繁忙时段，车厢满满的挤着形形色色的乘客，且当时尚未有女人包厢的实行。在无计可施的情况下，麻雀和朋友硬着了头皮挤进车厢。倘若翅膀还丰腴，麻雀必定耗尽全身的吃奶之力，踩着云朵回去。
由于乘客过多，麻雀与友人在车厢内“散失”了。只剩麻雀独自挤在一群男人之间。眼见就坐在前面的乘客起身欲离开，麻雀便二话不说地坐了下去（太不喜欢挤在这男人味间）。原以为踏出阴霾的麻雀，一抬头之际，吓倒了。眼前尽是魁梧彪悍的外籍男人。在望望左右，也是！最叫人发憷的是那些大汉悚然的眼光，那在你身上游走的眼神。麻雀赶紧又低下头，真的无法正视他们，太恐怖了！
这个时候，就像听到警察信号的强心针，麻雀听到友人在呼叫“佩霜”。不管三七二十一，麻雀赶紧穿过那些外劳之间的缝隙，也不管朋友在哪里，就是跑就对了。
这就是女生在拥挤的包厢里，发指但又无奈的情景。因此在女人包厢初行时，麻雀简直是喜上眉稍，相信所有的女人也会如此的开心。
但是这个却违背了男女平等主义。
倘若是平等，女人不该拥有自己专用的包厢。若要拥有，男人也该有一个吧。因为平等啊。
或平等，或自我保护，你们自己选择吧

Bribe-Free Malaysian

I saw this sticker pasted on a car somewhere in my taman today. I found it cute, don't you?
Bribe, it is such a  common word or attitude we can see here in our country
We always point our finger to the "guardian" of our country and also the authority.
Put away authority, it is somewhere I do not want to comment and not able to.
Talk about our guardian, it is true somehow.
When we got caught of speeding or driving in "so-called" wrong manner, they fined us
Yet before the saman ticket being issued, there is another procedure of stretching hand under the ticket
And people squeezing in the "head of agung" under the ticket
When we pointed to the "guardian", why don't we look at ourself as well?
Do we willing to let them bribe?
We accused them for bribery and bombarded our hatred towards them
Yet do we hate ourselves when bribing them?
Don't people always bribing them in order to pay less?
We, in fact, are the one who help nurturing this phenomenon...
To build a bribe-free Malaysia, it is a long way to go.
To bring it succeed, we ourselves shall hold hand and work it together but not keep accusing people (thou they are the major culprit)
Shall proceed my study plan, all the best!

Hey！There's my university~

Jool Bro asked me to view a link he posted in Facebook yesterday. He said that there is something our respectably Mr.F told him yesterday about his plan.

I read the news then. It is regarding the donation at which a philanthropist whose name is Koon Yew Yin intended to donate money with RM30 million to UTAR, my university. The money is donated for the hostel building when students in UTAR got to pay more than RM300 for their rental fees (I meant Westlake house).It sounds great, isn't it?

The A block building of UTAR(took from internet)

However, what a waste, our honorable UTAR high management, as well as MCA casted the fabulous money off...

I remembered what my senior told me before. She said that there is someone(forget his name already) who owns the land of new town. All shoplots in new town are under his name, as well as the westlake residence area where most of the UTAR students stay.
Now you know the reason why UTAR turn out Koon's money.
It has been so ridiculous when I recalled what people said before. People said that enter UTAR is good due to the cheaper tuition fees.
UTAR is a semi government school so the fees will be cheaper
Yes, exactly. It is cheaper if compared with other colleges
Yet why they now using this opportunity to earn students' money?
Why don't they decrease the students' expenses as lesser as possible?In contrast, they tended to earn students' money,
They played the role as a businessman but not as one who involved in education
This has been sarcastic when they tend to earn money from the poor student espexially when most of the students are chinese(i am not trying to be racism)
Yet what on earth they are doing? When most of the chinese students unable to enter government university then they chose UTAR where they think the tuition fees is affordable
And now MCA uses UTAR as a instrument to earn students' or their people money
When the election draws near, the people will stand out and say" We as the chinese, should mingle each other. We should work together to achieve our goal. Thus vote me"
When it is the critical period, sweet words is heard and honey promised is given
This is the society where we are living nowadays...
Since we are all labelled as Malaysian
we shall put our effort in building the nation but not talk only on the paper and never walk the promised
To make our nation better, the first is to think for the people instead of think of ourselves
Now, I am waiting for the follow up news of this issue
It will be quite interesting I guessed?

I saw the news few weeks ago yet I kept forgetting to blog this up to my place. As my perception, I think it is a necessary to talk about this issue, this event maybe. I took all these photo from Malaysiakini.com in order to make my piece more colourful by putting up those pictures.

As you can see from the picture above, the people were reading newspaper up side down, one even put the TV tool on his head. What are they doing?In fact, with World Press Freedom onward, they were having a protest(Sport Reading Mainstream Newspaper Upside down -translate from mandarin), to against media self-censorship, to "bebaskan media". Mainstream media nowadays tends to be more biased and pro government in their news report as the result of ownership and political economy control (political economy theory..haha). This has seriously threaten the credibility and reliability of the news nowadays and curtailed our right to access to the issues, as well as our freedom of expression and speech.

As a student of Journalism, we understand the structure and the hidden fact in the media industry, but not the common public,not the average people. Public who did not go for higher education, they do not understand the fact. They always believe the newspaper, as it is the only path for them to access to news.

Some young people todays do not care of the society, the politic tactics, as well believe to mainstream media though they have a better way by going to internet news portal. The problem is, who in fact going online for news? Unless they play the role of MSN or providing games as what Facebook did.

As I think, we have the responsibility to uphold the media freedom, therefore protect access to credible and reliable news(truth).Only with the well educated (either with the academic or the news), Malaysia can have a more mature society and political environment.

The former NTV7 producer of Edisi Siasat(if not mistaken), Huang Yi Chung and TV2 《前线视窗》's producer, Zhou Ze Nan have joined the protest as well. As they concern of the media, they concern of the people's right. So why don't we?

(Left) Huang Yi Chung and Zhou Ze Nan

As Huang said, the flashmob will be having the protest every weekend, in order to raise the awareness of the public towards the issue of media freedom, as well as to inform them the 528 media changed aniversary(528报变周年纪念日 ). As the information, 28th of May, 2001 was the day at which Huaren Holding took control of Nanyang press and the start point for politic interfered chinese newspaper.

For you who concern about the media in Malaysia, let's join the "celebration" together. Let's reject for the paper for one day. Let's stop watching news for one day.

P/s: Lucky me, I have got a chance to hear talk from Huang Yi Chung. Though I was sleepy that time yet I still manage to catch what he said that time. He is one who deserved for our respect for his effort in upholding media freedom.

I saw a news today. News that sickening the public. There was another teen shooting case happened in our country, again, after close to a fortnight.

The first incident was happened on 26 April 2010 in Shah Alam. According to The Star, Aminulrasyid Amzah, 15, was shot dead by police.Look, there is by no others but the police who served as a protector of the public, the person who defend the harmony and safety of our society. I found this is ridiculous when I first saw the news. The boy is just a 15 years old teenager, he has a bright future, he has lot to learn. However, now he was announced to dead under the bloody hands of the police.

While the previous case is still under investigation and while the outrage of the public are not played down yet, another boy, Mohd Azizi, 17, was shot by a patrol police in Seremban, around 3.30am while riding his motorcycle illegally.

Fortunately, this boy is luckier than Aminulrasyid, he managed to survive after the shot by the policeman to his hip.

First thing first, we should not have denied that the two boys are innocent. In fact, they did wrong. They should not have driven/ride the car/motorcycle illegal. Their act might endanger other cyclists on the road and threaten the traffic safety.

Yet, as we all know, they are only a not more than 18-year-old boys. Why is the police acted so cruel to the boy? The boys should not ran away from the police car but there is no reason for the police to shot them?

I heard from somebody that police can only open fire if there is urgency which threaten other's or their life and safety. Through the incident, I don't see any dangerous might happen to them that they have to shoot 20 times to the car. Funny.

I think most of all people, have once written policeman as their ambitions, so do I. But, the question is, is this the police we want to be?

I used to hoping to be a police who fight for justice, protect the safety and security of the public, as well as one who is respectable. This is what make police so important and attractive. So how do you think of the police nowadays? Do they have the characteristics you longed to be?

I think of something quite reasonable recently. Well, people previously scared of meeting bad people, gangster while they were outing, driving. Yet, people nowadays should be aware of the policeman while driving. You might have to pay bribe for a saman with all kinds of reason clarified by the police.

So, who is the one who threaten our security nowadays?

Joker from different path

This is the advertisement found in New York Times through Malaysiakini.com, our "First Lady" of Malaysia. As what we always said, Malaysia Bo~leh~...our "First Lady" is on USA famous press leh, of praising for her welfare contribution, of the "International Peace Honor"(don't how to translate exactly from Chinese). Yeah, she is deserved of this honor, especially the way she concerned of Altantuya, concerning about the "kapal haram" issue and so on. Yeah, she deserved for it, for her hard work, for her "great" effort. Let's celebrate for her.

Break News of 26/6/2009

"Michael Jackson was pronounced died"
No any news is more shock,causing more sensation than this.
I heard the news this morning when I was on the way to my morning class.It is like a thunder beating on me that I found it hard to accept the fact.Is it true?Is it Michael Jackson the pop king has really left the world so unaware?

I was too eager to reach UTAR to pass the break news to my friends.This is the journalism student's soul.Unsurprisingly,they all were shocked by the news of M. Jackson's death.However they didn't seem react sad or feel sympathy toward his death.Perhaps this is because they are not admire him before.But I do.

M. Jackson was my idol during my childhood,probably during my primary school age.I like him due to the influence from my father.We bought his casette which was affordable for us.I listen to his songs over and over,even until fell asleep.

Pass through the hundred years,the addiction towards him became lesser and lesser.I have even forgot his songs.The notobly news regarding him make the world criticize him or even sued him to court.I have never hate him as I know I love him only when he is in his music career.

I got back home after the afternoon class."You are not alone"I heard M. Jackson's voice.I have almost forgotten,we got a M.J fans here in the house.He looked sorrow,seriously.And was regretting not buying his doll before the price increasing.The lecturers were discussing his death today at university as well.He brought a big impact to the public,to the society.He is really a successful music man.

M. Jackson,the well-known pop king died in his 50-year-old when I am doing my Y1S2(26/6/2009) Jr course in UTAR that I will never forget it.

环保就从我做起

每当灯火阑珊的黑 空中黄澄澄的圆月高挂之时,既是初一或十五的到来或是他们刚经过了。。
而每每这两天，我们都会吃素。。这已是我们李家例常的习俗。。
其实也不是所有家庭成员都遵守。。
昨天是十五，我便跟随妈妈到附近的漱芳斋打包午餐。。
这些日子，家里通常就只有我和妈妈，要煮一餐其实真得很麻烦。。
两个人的饭菜，再加上小妹在减肥。。还是打包最实际。。
一路上看着路边的情景。。算是我爱做的事。。
当红灯亮起，妈妈便只好把车停着。。
这时我看到路边有一个印度少女，年龄大概与我相仿吧。。
看着她手里提着一袋垃圾，一路走到路边的沟柒旁即随手一抛。。
垃圾抛了，她既不鬼祟，既从容不迫地走开了。。
我当场真得愣了。。难道现在这种行为还可以这么张扬吗?
虽然有时去CPM(Cheras Pasar Malam)时，我是最快把手边垃圾落手的。。
但是其实我很心虚的，我会看看周围才把垃圾慢慢放下。。
我是很低调地做坏事。。
我在想，少女显然是把家里的垃圾拿出来丢的。。
他们想把自己住的家打扫干净，垃圾最好远离她们。。
可是难道他们不希望自己住的地球，自己住的国家干净，美丽吗？
难道他们不是住在地球里吗?他们的环境卫生概念上到哪了？
有一天，和泽俊msn时聊到了他现在住的台湾。。
台湾的人民真得很爱自己的国家。。大家都像一家人
马来西亚呢？就连警察，我们都得防啊！！！
曾几何时，我和一个伊朗的朋友聊天。。
他说他弟弟一到马来西亚的那一刻便说要回家了。。
因为马来西亚真得很肮脏。。他真得受不了。。
看看。。我们的国家怎么会这样？
就是因为人民没有环保，卫生观念。。
我要告诉自己。。我真的不可以在乱丢垃圾了。。
若非看到这种情景，或许自己还是如此执迷不悟。。
我们的地球真的病了。。
高中时，谢老师的社科，我接触到一部纪录片，叫。。
我们的地球已经生病了，可是我们却不会像照顾自家病人般对待她。。
要待有一天，南北极的冰块完全融化。。
空气中的CO2>O2时,我们会怎样？
后悔？补救?好像都来不及了。。
预防要从现在开始。。
不要再非法燃烧垃圾了。。
不要再非法砍伐森林了。。
不要在胡乱丢垃圾了。。
尽可能不要乱使用冷气机。。
选择公共交通工具。。
不要浪费水和电。。
这些小小的行为都是从我们身边做起的。。
希望以我这绵薄之言呼吁大家一起来爱护，照顾我们的国家，我们的地球。。。
加油。。

Obama Baracks has won the us election...congratulation to US new president...

This is the 1st time the Negro been the president in USA...

It shows the democracy of USA...

On the other hand,why not Malaysian Chinese?

Why Malaysian always think that only Malay can be the leader of the country but not other religion's local Malaysian?

We born locally in Malaysia...but why somehow we were treated like foreigner?

Our rights are totally different compared with Malay,Indian's is even worse...

In education,business n etc...Malays have the priority to have the best...

Then the remaining after that are left for Chinese then Indian...

This is really inequitable...

Our government should give them an opportunity being independent but not rely to the priority..

Nevertheless...this seems unchangeable...

so...we just have to rely to ourselves...

However...i love M'sia...

a beautiful country...a non-natural disaster country...

I love u so much...
