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.

Food Review

This is first food review I posted here. Normally I will post in another blog of mine.
You might be asking, what so special of this?
The answer is Yeah, nothing so special of this "kuih" , but the special is the hawker.
I did not capture the hawker(no dare) so that I decided to post the "result" I got from him.
These kuih are our local dessert, Fried banana and fried fried green bean. I bought them in Kampar just before I headed back to Klang.

While others were buying the famous and delicious fried pohpiah from the Indian uncle, I walked to another stall. I saw my favourite one, the Fried green bean. It has been ages since I did not see it selling around. On the spot, I asked the Indian hawker the price of it. He did not answer me but kept busying packing the kuih for me. WHAT THE....I asked second time then he only answered me:"RM2 for 4"...this is considered expensive that I stopped him from packing the third. Then I asked him how much of the fried banana. Again, he packed the kuih without answering me!!!Then after packing the second one, he only answered my question.

I don't like the way he do his business. I know earning money is not the easy one yet this is not that way I think. Every job has their own code of ethics. Journalist has one, doctor has one, so do the businessman, even the hawker. In this incident, he should have answered my question and ensure whether I want to buy or not but not busy with packing. Since I have approached his stall then means that I willing to buy. Yes, I did buy after his "hard-selling" tactic yet I am sure no second time.

The memorable day of Ms. Joethi and us

I guess it is not too late for me to blog Ms. Joethi's big day up as nothing is too late as long as you did it. And, now I did it.
Why I said the day is so memorable for both Ms Joethi and us? As it is the day Ms. Joethi stepped into a happiness journey of her life yet it is the day she officially left us and UTAR. The day we lost a good teacher. She chose her way and of course we support her.
It was 8th May 2010, we went to our lovely and respectable lecturer's wedding which held in Ipoh. Talk about Ipoh, it made us lost our way for nearly an hour until the bus uncle was crazy and told us that it is difficult to earn from us. I am sorry, uncle.And, want to thank Chin Eng, the carepochi...haha...We could not have made the trip without him. He was so tough to book the bus and wait for the late passengers.
My classmates were really pretty that day, especially Saravani, Amirah and Vivien.
The day was sweet and Ms. Joethi,the bride was so pretty. We were late but luckily able to make it.
Heard that there were some politicians and they left just before we arrived. It is sayang that we can't see the "big scene" yet this proved a saying of Utar-ian: Face problem. haha...
Many lecturers were there, with beautiful dress and lovely make up. It is pleased to see many lecturers there with "another face" of them, it made me feel even friendly and close to them.
Picture of all our lecturers in UTAR, but don't know why my senior was there as well.
And, of course, we would not missed the chance to take photo with the lovely couple that day. We presented Ms. Joethi our picture which captured and frame made by Chin Eng. She was so happy when she got it.
Lovely picture taken with the couple of that day, and also the present.
We ate the food after all. I like the sambal chicken, putu mayam as well as the mutton. I love spicy food thus I like the food that night, but obviously not everyone like it. Ms. Mok is one of the them which the food can't cater to her until she has to ask us out for mamak. Another person I saw is Nigel, our senior. Seriously, he took so little, I think it is not even enough for a cat!!!??I asked him is that enough for you,he pointed his body and apparently he wanted to say: This is why I am so thin. You should learn from me. Well, speechless.
After that, Ms Mok the sampat came to our table and chat with us. She asked me: Pei Suang, don't you want to keep fit?Why you eat so much?...><..(I have just taken one sambal chicken breast,some mutton,some veggie and the putu mayam)...I told her chicken breast is healthy and not containing fat. haha...
Ms. Mok simply act cute.
Ms. Mok not look good in the picture as she did not look at the camera but not us. We were good in this picture so i decided to put it.^^
Besides, we managed to take photo with our tutor of Political Science, Msl. Por. Another legend people of our faculty. I missed her as well since she has never taught us this semester and last short semester.
Picture with Mr Por
We have also taken photo with another main character of the day, morning but not night. Ms. Jue Jun whose paper was on that day and the one hanging us up.>< She looked pretty that night as well.Yet I found that I don't have her picture here. So will only upload next time when Eng uploaded all photo up to Facebook~~
Ms Esaline was gorgeous that night, she wore saree that night. It is a huge waste that all of us could not take photo with her. As well as Mr Afi, lost him after we finished our meal.
Beside our class photo, we have also presented Ms Joethi my handmade card. I used "heart and blood" to do that card the whole night. It is really happy when I saw Ms. Joethi liked it. A sense of achievement, some more she again, praised me in Facebook. I do not have the photo of my card so again, I have to wait for Mr. Eng....

I love you, Ms Joethi.
Ms. Joethi, our first lecturer in UTAR. Her class,Journalism 1 was the first class for us in UTAR. She is the first one introduce Journalism to us. She was my advisor who always give us candy, chocolate, biscuit and sushi.
Ms. Joethi, Happy marriage to you. Wish you and your husband happy last for ever. I simply like a sentence from Chin Eng that night. Quote him: Ms. Joethi left us because she chose you. So you must take good care of her.
Hope that we will still be able to meet her out next time, perhaps in Kuala Lumpur or Kampar.

Here come Suangtic

Klang, here I am to breathe the air of Klang.
Exactly, I am back to Klang, safely and happily.
This time, I drove.
I drove Zing's Myvi. I have been chatting with Zing along the journey.
Thanked her, as she sacrificed her sleep to accompany me.
We talked a lot, all about our wonderful time in Secondary school. The time I wished to back to.
We talked a lot, and also about the problem I have encountered this few weeks.
Friendship, Love, Mind, Thinking, Feeling. We talked all.
I especially, missed something I have missed for long time.
The enthusiasm in holding an event.
The passion in being a "happy nut" for everyone.
The ardour of bringing laughter.
I was active, in my secondary school.
I was optimistic, in the teenager time.
I was active in the activities.
I loved being busy.
I hated being too relax. Yet.
I changed after I came to university.
I failed to find the feeling that I have lost.
I could not feel the enthusiasm in doing everything that I used to love.
I am pessimistic.
I am passive.
No way!I am not going to let this continue.
I should get all the feeling back to me again.
It is time for me to recharge.
I will be a different one after the break.
Revive!!!

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?
Discovery today:I am seriously, crazily,vigorously,zealously, sincerely but not officially falling in love to Miss Mok, our respectable lecturer today!!!!!haha...

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.

Mood before the last paper

Phew~I got the last one more paper to go, eventually...Communication Research Method, It will be my last subject in this semester. I have taken a nap, just now, after my Business and Electronic Commerce paper. It was the most relax, the sweetest yet sweaty nap, since Final began. Relax, because I have taken four papers already. The sweetest, it is a nap that without burden, and I manage to stay on lying even though I have woke up. Sweaty, you know la, Kampar's weather never cold, and always hot, is extremely hot.
Talk about the previous two papers I have taken. The days was like, you can see books or notes beside me everyday. I am not saying I am hardworking, instead saying I was really stressed. I scared Communication Theories, as well as lazy to memorize all sort term-term(kata ganda pula) of BEC. Yet, no doubt, the days passed and I am not sure how is it.

You know ah, something should be euphoria, Ai Peng came to me yesterday, told me:"Pei Suang, you became thinner." What my reaction at that moment?I answered her, No No No, I have gained my weight since the final began. I cant stop eating when I was studying. Hey, really la, why people can reduce weight while Final period, but not me? Seriously, I have taken many food yesterday. Well, morning I have my oat+milk, Jacob's Low Salt Hi-Fibre biscuit on top with the tuna; then I have my lunch(economic fried bihun+one kuih) at bamboo with eastlake geng before Communication Theories. I need to eat before the paper, in case I could not think if hungry. I felt terribly hungry after the paper, then I ate teh tarik, biscuits and gui leng go. I have one cup of dragon fruit ice blended at night. Meanwhile, I felt hungry at night while I was fighting with BEC notes. Then I took oat and a piece of toast.
In the midnight, while I was still struggling with the notes, Andrew popped out with a bowl of seaweed soup. He put it on the table and wished me all the best for the paper the next day. It was sweet and so warm, I meant his behavior which successfully touching me. Besides, the soup was really nice and full of materials, yet it is a bit too salty for me. Anyway, it is still nice and tasty. Thank you, Andrew!



It was my day, see, how much that I have eaten. I officially hate examination period, as it will put on my weight~~
Ok, that's all for today. I am going to Ms. Joethi, our lovely lecturer's wedding now~
Wish a blastful and wonderful wedding to my dear lecturer and her husband...


p/s: By the way, I am going to Taiwan, I think...haha...
