Malaysian Bans Indian & Bangla Workers!

The full article can be found at reuters website.

I was just wondering, how are we going to cope with the absence of these immigrants? More from Indonesia or the locals are going to do manual labor? I know, we’ll just let unemployed graduates to fill this in gap. Silly?

I once worked earnestly at a local mega store, carrying heavy stocks is part of the duty. My colleagues was either a Bangla, Indon or Indian. I eventually quit due back ache and sprained muscle. Most of the local told me it is a degrading job although at the end of the day, we received the same amount as a cash register. Who cares, I just wanted to work out while working.

Why did I take the job? I wanted to learn the hard way (having learned that my grand-dad was a sweeper). If I wasn’t born in a Silver-spoon-fed family, I will be doing these chores. How awfully tiring and demotivating.

The ban implies to India and Bangladesh. The Gov will not entertained permits renewal. Do you think this is a right call by the gov? What about skilled IT personnel from INDIA? All those MSC Company staff can ciau la? So let me rephrase my question, ARE WE RACIST or THOUGHTLESS?

I’m Wired for Creativity.. HMPHHHH!

Was that a little too much? Yeah, I thought so too. Whats yours?

Sleepy and Unmotivated

I don’t know why, I’m just unmotivated probably because of the following:

• company problem: late payment from clients
• too much work and ad-hoc works
• pending proposals
• too many friends’ favors to call in
• worrying about the rugby team
• paperworks for LaPassion
• roadtax for WMY9600 (Gen2)
• not listening to enough classical music.

Oh I don’t know what’s boggling my mind. Darn.

Just go slow dear.. one thing at a time.

or so I thought.

Will You Be My Coach?

Muhammad, my youngest bro asked me. Having learned that I am coaching the MCKK U15 Rugby team until 2010. He wants me to coach him rugby as well. What is he thinking?

Muhammad is still early in his standard 5 and yet having a dream that one day, when he enters MCKK, he wants me to coach him. I treat him like an adult most the time (of course minus the wrestling), seldom like a kid. I would try my best to rationalize every question asked. As a coach, I am not-to-be-messed-with. So I guess I won’t be coaching them (MCKK boys) until 2010, probably longer. I don’t think I can resist tormenting my youngest family member, hahaha.

My parents have also decided to allow Muhammad to continue his second-level education at MCKK. He will be transferred to a normal school (from Al-Amin a private Islamic school) effective next year (standard 6) and will sit for UPSR there.

By the way, if Muhammad joins MCKK’s rugby squad, he will be mobile. He is big and very fast. No 8, winger, jumper or prop. Let’s just hope he nails his UPSR first.

The First Training - U15 Rugby 2008

I just got back from Kuala Kangsar after our first training session. On the way back, I can’t help to contain overwhelmed excitement within. Being a coach is something new for me. 8 years ago, I never imagined that I would come back and taunt these boys.

Preet, preet, preeeeeet! Follow my whistle! Again, preet, preeet, preet, preet. You in white, lower your ass. Come on guys, don’t do it half heartedly.

Yup, that’s me throughout the training. Since they failed to do 10 push ups properly, I keep adding repetitions until they look neat to me. Back in my days, 50 push ups (or sit ups) is almost nothing. Whining is inevitable amongst the boys, which is bad. Rugby is do-or-die game, if you can’t keep up, you better quit.

Pak Lah Wants Me..

Will be heading to Kuala Kangsar tomorrow for my first appearance as a coach. Couldn’t sleep so I made this. (2 hours ok!)
