Nikmat apakah yang kamu ingin dustakan?

Assalam.


Luahan hati sikit harini. Kalau sudi baca alhmdulillah.

Rezeki Allah tetapkan bukan hanya di tanda dgn gaji dan pangkat. I learned this the hard way. I strived and worked hard for titles and pangkat when there is opportunity but sometimes bila hati tak ikhlas, duit dapat cepat saja rasa pergi. And then we had this re organization circa 2016 which taught me a lot about how to become an overall better person, alhmdulillah.

I was given a huge responsibility and was paired with a very honest personality who had taught me so much great values in life. We just face whatever we could with all our energy and skills and never looked back. My people skill and knowledge grew deeper by day, and our enery level by 530 every single day was at 5% just enough to get ourselves back home. All that really matters is actually what really matters and we have to do what we have to do, with what we can. Each day was a new challenge. Each challenge a new lesson to be learnt. And by the end we were actually satisfied. I didnt really care of the tittles or levels anymore but mashallah the rezeki kept flowing in. I was really in awe with what Allah had for us for our sincerity in doing more than we should and the concept of His Adil. He will give you what you work for as He knows all what we have done. So yes, i didnt get raise but the money/bonus/incentives was more than what i will get if i had gotten the raise. I was struggling with my lhdn filings for those years (in a good way) but i was not complaining. Syukur alhmdulillah. I pushed my engineer to get a raise and kpi 4 for 3consecutive years because i believe she deserves it.

Yup i didnt get my raise but i my loans cleared for a new car, one of my dream car that me and hubs were awing all those while. I managed to get my home a lil bit improved alhmdulillah, and we had a lil bit put away for our big family holiday 2020 and a lil bit more squeezed for open tables alhmdulillah.




Being very used to simplicity, we didnt have huge wants to iphone12 or big new smart tv so thats a good thing. And we were so used to simplicity, we do not really have a long wish list to change or buy everything. I know where to get similar items cheaper and better values of items around us alhmdulillah. And hubs self taught himself to do diy works around the house, from simple carpentry to repairing and complicated wiring.so this was a major rezeki for us alhmdulillah. I was always the creative director and he was the executor.lol. Once he did all the wirings, lamps and fans for the whole 2 storey house of his lil brother..which had saved his brother around 2k. I know this 2k value will come back around to us in a lot of other versions for us to help them dgn ikhlas.

We always work as a team, and jangan berkira. You do you. Dan perkahwinan ni sebenarnya medan memberi, ibadat kita paling panjang sepanjang hayat kita. Nak sentuh bab kawin ni mashallah..syukur sangat Allah kurniakan suami yang sangat sangat sabar dgn segala kerenah kita. Kalau nak kira buruk dia tu..tak setanding buruk kita. Suami adalah hadiah untuk kita- medan pahala kita, dan kita rebut pahala untuk memberi dan memberi. And whatever we bring back to the table we share. I think that is one of the things yang murahkan lg rezeki flow untuk kami. Ikhlas antara satu sama lain dan sentiasa ada rasa hormat dan integiti. Yups integriti. You do you ni besar makna and konteks dia sbnrnya. Jgn bandingkan diri dgn kwn kwn yg gaji 15k tapi jmpa 3bulan sekali. Rezeki dia sabar berseorangan 3bulan, then dia boleh reap his/her happiness dgn tidur 5d4n hotel St Regis Langkawi. Itu rezeki dia. You do you. Husband dia maybe poket tebal tapi muka tak hensem anak semua ikut muka dia. Itu rezeki dia. You do you. Husband dia kaya raya duit juta juta tapi umur dah 60, kadang kadang boleh bangun kadang kadang langsung tidak..so you do you.

 

Masa masa susah kita cuba juga untuk memudahkan org lain, kalau bukan dgn duit, dengan kudrat, dengan know how kita. Kalau tak boleh memudahkan, cukuplah cuba elak untuk menyusahkan. Betul kadang kadang kita terlalu letih emosi dan tubuh boleh membuat kan hati org lain terluka dgn kata kata kita, jadi sentiasalah terbuka meminta maaf sesama sendiri, dan yg penting, pisahkan urusan kerja dan peribadi..kalau marah dgn org hal kerja, keep it professional, kita marah sebab kerja sahaja tp kalau diluar kerja dia ttp kwn kita, rakan sejawatan kita, ha begitulah


So yeah, konsepnya mudah, do all you can do with all you have and leave it all to the Arrazaq to send His Rizq back to what you deserved. Yang ni saya baru sedar dan baru pegang setelah berperit belajar dari pengalaman lalu. Dan satu juga lagi benda yg saya belajar ttg jgn berkira kira dgn keluarga. Waktu kami ke utara tahun lepas, saya mmg tak limitkan berapa ibu mertua saya nak belanja saya bayar kan saja. You name it, makan ke, kedai ka, even we left my lil brother in law some knowing that he has none, and surprisingly, duit tu mcm ada ja..tak luak luak.mashallah miracle sungguh..Allahuakbar!

 

Moga kisah ni jadi iktibar dan ingatan utk diri sendiri ttg konsep rezeki. Jgn lah dok gelabah ayam kira duit org, pangkat org, jiran mana beli emas ka, kwn mana tukar kereta ka..because you dont know what they had done and gone through to deserve the Rizq of that much.


 Syukur seadanya. Hidup seadanya

 

Love

Ku ingin dicintai

 Assalam peeps,

Kemain tajuk kan? Hahaha..nak tulis sikit luahan hatilah sejak dua menjak ni tak berapa rasa seronok. Rasa tertekan je dengan situasi semasa. Kerja memang sentiasa banyak tu mmg lah adat kita makan gaji. Kalau ikutkan dah dua minggu lebih rasa tak berapa seronok ni. Tapi bukan sebab rumahtangga ke apa..tidak! Alhmdulillah 10thn masih lagi seperti dibulan madu.acehwah. 

Rasa mental stress ni byk dipengaruhi oleh tempat kerja khususnya sbnrnya..tp sebab sekarang 98% bekerja dari rumah, terbawak bawak kestressan tu dkt anak anak. Astaghfirullah.

So kita tulislah sikit sikit, luahkan rasa. Supaya tak jadi kanser dlm hati. Nak luah kan di social media macam tak patut. Kdg2 org yg tah mana mana yg baca. Skrg ni pun i byk tulis dlm status whatsapp je..sampai 24jam ia hilang. mmg suka je dia hilang.jarang nak tulis tulis dlm ig story or fb sebab rs platform platform ni dah terlalu open..terlalu public.jadi tak seronok.

Cerita dia mudah, cerita kita kerja benda boleh buat dan dah terbukti pun boleh buat, tp kita ni muda (muda muda pun takdelah muda sgt), senang je mereka mereka yg baby boomers/earlier X generations ni singkirkan kita, rasa kita ni muda banyak lagi peluang akan dtg, dan letakkan org yang dulu tak setia mana ditempat kita dulu. 


Bila ditanya byklah alasan nya.biasalah siapa nk mengaku salah kan? Cumanya selama dahulu yg org tak cukup kita duduk berkhidmat di tempat kosong tu dgn cemerlang *cemerlang ok* ! tak berapa dihargai.




Tulis sikit lah dulu. nanti kita sambung lagi luahan rasa ni. Tu belum lagi diskriminasi jantina. 

Ya, kdgkala bagus sebab bila kau sorg saja bunga yang dihantar bercerita kisah dan memerintah kilang buat sesuatu yg lain, automatik semua lelaki lelaki yang sebelum ni keras suara (dan hatinya) berlembut. Apa saja perintah diturut dan semua automatik lebih bersopan. Ini realitinya, kuasa wanita yg menggoncang buaian boleh perintah kan perubahan pemasangan dari station atas ke bawah. Rezeki juga ni alhmdulillah..

Ok to be continued..

Love

53% PEKERJA MALAYSIA HADAPI TEKANAN MENTAL DI TEMPAT KERJA

 53% PEKERJA MALAYSIA HADAPI TEKANAN MENTAL DI TEMPAT KERJA


Buletin Utama TV3 hari ni melaporkan 53% pekerja di Malaysia menghadapi tekanan di tempat kerja.

Dua Fakta yang dilaporkan:


1. Satu daripada lima pekerja @ 20% pekerja tertekan kerana tanggungjawab yang perlu di pikul di tempat kerja.

2. Prestasi pekerja menurun adalah disebabkan penilaian rendah prestasi kepada pekerja yg berpotensi.

Terkejut dengan fakta ini?

Saya TAK TERKEJUT LANGSUNG sebab memang pekerja di Malaysia:


1.OVERLOAD DENGAN KERJA

2.TAK DIHARGAI

Semua tu in line dgn post2 pink form saya sebelum ini. Setuju? Anyway, dalam laporan TV3 tadi. Ada perkara diutarakan oleh Doktor Pakar dalam Kesihatan Pekerja (Occupational Health) yg saya rasa worth untuk dikongsi baik untuk pekerja atau majikan. 

.

UNTUK PEKERJA


Jika anda:

1.Rasa kemurungan

2.Tidak gembira untuk bekerja


Anda sebenarnya menghadapi tekanan mental di tempat kerja. Maka cepat2 dapatkan khidmat kaunseling.Jika di biarkan, PERKARA AKAN MENJADI LEBIH BURUK. 

.

UNTUK MAJIKAN


Jika ada pekerja yang ambik Medical Certificate (MC) dan pattern nya hampir sama selama 3 bulan berturut2. Maka sebenarnya pekerja itu tidak gembira untuk bekerja. So, HR perlu cepat2 hubungi pihak Occupational Health Doctor untuk dapatkan bantuan.


BUKAN BAGI HUKUMAN KEPADA PEKERJA YA!


Ini tak, bila pekerja ambik MC. Terus kata pekerja malas, tak perform malah gunakan alasan MC nak bagi rating below expectation dalam appraisal masa akhir tahun😑😑


This approach will make things getting worst! 

.

So guys, ini nasihat saya:


WAHAI BOSS2 SEMUA:


Banyak2 kan bertanya sakit pening pekerja baik dari segi kesihatan mental dan fizikal.


Tanya dorang happy ke tak dengan suasana kerja. Bukan semberono membuat hukuman!

WAHAI PEKERJA2 SEMUA:


Berani lah mengutarakan apa terbuku di hati.


Kalau bukan dengan Boss pun, luahkan kepada rakan sekerja daripada luahkan kepada keluarga atau orang lain. Kerana rakan sekerja lebih faham situasi anda di tempat kerja. 


Kepada rakan sekerja, bagi lah sokongan mental kepada rakan2 anda di kala mereka memerlukan ya! Bukan demotivated lagi mcm bagi ayat2:


"KO NI LEMBIK LAH"


"BIASALAH TU, NAMA PUN KERJA"


"SYUKUR LAH WEI ADA KERJA"

Kemampuan mental setiap orang tu lain2. Jangan samakan mereka dengan anda! (jika anda jenis yg kuat mental lah...).

Ke arah kesihatan mental yang lebih baik😊.


Assalam

Alhmdulillah for the opportunity for the years - i learned a lot from mentoring a fresh grad to only supervising an expert. WFH is a really big challenge..a new thing for me, sometimes taken for granted but believe me, its really harder. Just trying to get my visions and missions right again to move forward. Time will heal inshallah.

12th year here and counting

My beautiful colleagues. makan mee goreng bwh pokok dpn petronas USJ. Picture by big boss.

Ramadhan 10. Let us write up a lil bit about whats happening around. 

One colleague resigned with a 24hours notice. Its time to move on. That was my colleague's response when i asked her, why her boss resigned. He gave all his emotions, tears and sweat in for all these 15 years. and now its finally time to move on. In the conversation i was told that he would occasionally review his career steps after a certain period of time. What achievements that he has unlocked, where is he currently is, income target and so on. He chosed 5 years which is very reasonable in my view. Bravo bro. Congrats for your new offer. May Allah ease everything for you. 

I am still happy here. Happy just to get to go home on time and workloads is still under my radar. Occasionally stress environment, but still the positive vibes still lingers around. Alhmdulillah. I would like to quote something i read in my Igs feed which i feel like very interesting :

"There is no perfect job in this imperfect world. Critical success factors are actually your attitude, and your mindset on how to make the best out of it. All the Time"




Mashallah. Jazakallah for those profoundly beautiful arranged thoughts.
So there you are. Im proudly surviving my 12th year here. Alhmdulillah. Cheers to the more years to come, more new challenges..Inshallah. 

***





Well, speaking of moving on.
It has been awhile for us to be back to hubby's hometown in Kelantan. The kids missed their kampung. The daddy of course too. We'll see how lah anak anak for this coming raya or maybe just August raya haji. I planned for an Anniversary trip in August nanti, to cover back our 9th anniversary which falls in Ramadhan (28th May uols!) All those sweat,laughters and tears all these nine years. Alhmdulillah. We embrace all the challenges and here we are

The boys happily running after the lokching hawker in our hometown, Pasirmas.

The leisure time back in the Kampung Life : Just lazing and makan!



We'll be back inshallah. Soon

Enjoy your Ramadhan sisthur!

We survived January! Yay!!

Abg Iman on his first day of school!

Hello February! Dah February dh kan..kejap je masa berlalu..Dah masuk second month of the year. Tak lama lagi dh March! I like March. Sebab March boleh claim LHDN tax last year..hehehe. Tak de lah. saja gurau.. Banyak yang berlaku January. We lost a dear friend  in a tragic accident, the things we planned but need to be cancelled. the money used and hutang hutang semua, bidding farewell to our nice colleague Z...huarghhhhhh...


So, nak kna tulis ni : WE SURVIVED JANUARY!! yay!






A big applause to all of us! We have worked as a team! A great team. Mommy n daddy survived with no Latecoming alhmdulillah so far ;p Everybody pun dh mcm boleh adapt dgn new routine and daily expectations of what to be done, who's doing what and when. Just the basic things. Bila dh buat every day, it becomes a habitual routine :) Alhmdulillah that everything runs smoothly.


Picture taken by Amsyar. Thank u amsyar for cutting off mommy's head :)

Iman at the canteen. Day 1 school 2018


With his friends from 1 Zamrud.


I had some issues with the other parents from Iman's school group, there are some who are too kiasu, some who wants to blame everything on whoever asked the question, and there is this mr everything knows, and also Miss Please-ask-ask-my-daughter-to-eat-bekal type. You know. The everybody in this one group, who you have only one mutual friend who u save the name : The Cikgu. I try to act casual at times but sometimes when your question, meant for the teacher is being mixed up by others and by last dok menokok tambah sampai it becomes a big matter, for me its not acceptable. Geram je iols ni. Kita tanya je " Boleh bg tarikh tak cikgu bila boleh dpt ..?". Ada pulak yg jawap, "Kan cikgu dh kata belum ada lagi (the week before), bwk bersabar sikit".. Ecewahhhh...sedap suruh org ye.



Our squad off to pibg mesyuarat.hehehe


Kadang kadang diorg ni bunyi je lbih. Gitu gini..mesyuarat pibg xdatang pun. I was shocked to see the meeting was attended slightly no more than 200 ppl. We came just for the support and to know what's going on, terkejut juga tgk parents xramai dtg. Darjah satu aje ada 320 org uols. so 200 org yg dtg is really not acceptable. Next year Inshallah we try to become active ajks. Not promising anything but we'll see :)



Mandi at Geyma's place : Putrajaya

The boys are now into the big pool.dah ada water confidence

Mikhail still learning to adapt with new float.

Oklah tu jelah kot. tulis sikit sikit is better than nothing kan. Hmm apa lagi eh. 



Two swimming sessions this January alhamdulillah. Letih bdn melayankan routing baru persekolahan anak2 tp kita still selitkan sessions riadah ni. Nak bg bebudak happy. This month pun mmg xde plan nk berjalan ke apa, so kita jalan jalan dekat dekat je. Mikhail pun caught HFMD on the 28th January yang membuatkan kitorg semua kuarantin. Mommy dh ambil EL for one day, another day MC sakit badan (body aching) due to flu n high fever. Dah sapu dgn natural remedies and EO blend from our local EO witch (haha) and mandikan dgn sabun thieves nmpk smakin ok je hero mommy sorg ni. Alhmdulillah. Sekejap lg nk bwk dia g follow up check up tgk cmne. Next week kalau clear dh boleh g sekolah! I feel that the virus is from the school, tp nk blame siapa kan, school pun kalau boleh xmau ada virus mcm ni. And as Mikhail is the youngest at school, he got striked first. I hope nobody else got contracted with the virus. 

inshallah baik baik semuanya... dugaan kecik saja ni.


Day 2 : Mouth still with blisters

Day 3 : Blisters looking OK

Day 5 : Kaki semua dh OK

Day 5 : Blisters on hands dah clear




Ok guys, till then. Byk missing stories yang dh tak tertulis dlm blog rupanya. Haishlah.. mommy will try to write everything down, just to ease on remembering everything inshallah. We'll hoping for a better February inshallah, with Iman's bithday coming soon, the CNY holidays and Zainab's coming back (for a short holiday) circa the 20th Feb, We are hoping for the best. Not forgetting to mention yang i got two new nieces (from hubby's side) last January.. baby girls chuols. Ahh..mommies with boys suka kan drama drama bila tgk org dpt girls. Seorang dah ada nama : Baby Raysha Adelia. Seorang lagi yet to be announced. Both sihat, cute and chubby alhmdulillah~ nanti tunggu mengundi kita balik kelate lawat dih. Tunggu mommylong balik. :)



And to me, Febrary the 1st marks my anniversary in Proton. This year is much memorable as this year is my 10th anni here. 11th year, and still going on. Keep swimming. I'll see what i can do this year. As i feel that im already done in the maternity department, i'll see what i will do next :)

10yrs babe! woohooooooo

Till then.


Love

A long week..

...or may i say weeks!

Absent from the office for the last 2weeks, i worked only 2 weeks for the whole august! its a long story! But to cut it short, i've been hospitalized for 6 days in Putrajaya Hospital, my sister gave birth to beautiful baby girl (23rd), and my parents when to off for hajj last saturday (28th). So many things can happen in one week, right? Alhmdulillah, everything went well. I have been discharged before mom left, and i was hospitalized in the room beside my sister's which enables me to help her once in a while :)


In the office today settling few items. preparing for my boss pre maternity break items, tho he got most items covered already due to my absent these few weeks :) Not my mistake i have literally no assistant after one colleague left in 2014 :) And then my boss arranged for me to being partner-ed with one being thrown out from her previous group..hehehe. Buang, and recruit baru. Our group left with the one they dont want anymore. Sigh. I am open, i accept anyone, but if you do not want to learn, its not my problem :)

im still pregnant tho~
Hospitalization was for pre-eclampsia, which i guess needs a special post for it. My doctor (specialist handling my case) was so careful in discharging me, she actually really refused to let me go by day 6!


Oklah thats all for today's update. Kita tgk what happens for 1/9/2016 which is my next appointment with the hospital specialist. Sept baby afterall. Inshallah :)

Something



 Hello February!
It had been a looooong week :)
Just came back from kelantan and finished a training.
A wonderful one i can say.

Things ive learnt in the training was one thing but values he injected in between the course outline was what i wish to remember. He says that life is nothing about the money, its about living it. Nice one ya.. and we were reminded that in business there's no friendship. Business means pure business, full stop.

Alhmdulillah.




Just enjoy your day!
Will be writing soon..inshallah. But now i have a meeting.




I'm still in the battle. I'm not giving up to join other battles yet. Let them running away be. We do not need them. The battle is just starting. Im in no plans on running now.

Just not yet.



Adios!

Things

Tuesday morning the sun is shining.

Just to write out some burden. To loosen out a bit.

Stressed out with CIMB. The synchronization in between depts. It has been 89+working days.
And still pending. Gilaa...Burned out with people with different wavelengths who have different way of thinking.I'll try to fight for my right. And never give up! This case had really took a toll on my mood these days.
*sigh*


Hope for things to turn out OK.

Too many things that makes me stressed out these day.




The neighbour who parks infront of my house for months not wanting to move his car.
We plan to write 'for sale' on an empty bottle and put it on the car tonite.hahaha..monster neighbour.



The girl who is married for 2mths+ but pregnant with 4.
I could smell fishy things when the morning sickness and baby bump was 2wks after her solemnization.
2 weeks? like seriously? Then i knew.Hmm. takpelah.good for her to cover up things rapidly.
The baby is innocent. That is what matters most.
But too fragile to even stand up during a meeting.
Memalukan kaum perempuan betul.
still a loooong way to go adik


Hmm..budak budak zaman skrg.
May all things be good for you.


And is just Maybe its just time to turn the leaf upside down.

Dear May..please come quickly. Dear Saturday..please come quick too..
I really need a good rest for now.

From the other side of the table..a new perspective for me :)

Alhamdulillah it's monday again.
Well despite all the blues and the working Saturday, we should all be grateful to be still breathing Allah's air.
:)

This is Saturday's story. I was appointed as one of the panels interviewer for last Saturday mass interview. Ramai from my team, coz nak pkai ramai. and the candidates pun ramai, 400 of them altogether (400 rupenya..kata smlm 350!). It was quite exciting for me as this would be my 1st being at the other side of the table. Overwhelmed, that my boss believed in me (hahaha..he should not sepatutnya! :p). Frankly, I was as nervous as the interviewee at first.but my partner was my boss so his experiences overcame and overshadowed my weaknesses..hehehe. This is real man, i'm contributing to this young fella's future here!..hmm..

Splendidly, we managed to interview 10 candidates and recruited 5.
Meeting with the new generation did made me feel old and I was looking specifically for people to be on my team.But among all taken, I found none. I was the bad cop that day obviously, and haji my boss was a bit laid off relaxed..as this would be his 238754190time kot. Ahahaha...he had served 28yrs kot in the company.What do you expect? There are some expectations and criterias im looking forward to. One of it, your Fluid dynamics or Thermodynamics must be at least B+. Hahaha.. I'm cruel like that. Hehehe.. takdelah..

I was trying to grill up some tricky questions, and on the same time trying to get what outsiders have in view for our products in general. If you bleed and have proton substances in it then ill hire you..but haji has different ideas. He claimed that We only need potential.All others could be trained.hehehehe. Yalah haji.. :p
Well it takes the bad cop and the good cop kan to be teamed up.kalau tak mesti 10-10 dpt.

Most candidates were fresh grads. Yang belum grad but in final semester pun ada. Me likey..pucuk muda nih ;p So the innocent-ness was in the air. But some too innocent they mistakenly named Avanza as one of our our products. Sorrylah dik, i know u wanna say Exora. But.. i have to say no. Hahaha.. One could name any after honda-perdana, and inspira although he has a Masters and was a top (first class) student. sayang...but no juga, we dont want theory professors in the team.hehe. It is quite amazing, when people come, expects you to hire them, but doesnt have a clue what the company business is all about.*sigh*



This took me back then in 2004 being grilled till the ends for a proton scholarship.the final interview was with the top management back then. And I could tell that what we had last Saturday was at no par. hahaha.
It was what I could say a good experience for me at that time which brought me new perspectives of the industry. One of the questions i got was " I don't like hijabers, i think hijabers are pure hypocrites. What is your opinion of working in the world of men, in corporate world, where hijab is almost at all times were thinked of as outdated?". Well so much of the provoking moment kan? The dato' know well that i'm from UIA, studied in sekolah agama, i would be much offended. But i was not. Keluar interview, baru i know that the dato interrogating me was Tengku Mahaleel himself. It was good to be ignorant that time. or else i might projected a different answer, and most probably not get the scholarship..Hahaha. Well, that is definitely incomparable as that was what they need to do to make you eligible to be paid off your whole student year. That time graduation fees, robes and pictures pun i soh charge back proton. Hahahah


Last year, I had attended a government DG41 interview last year and I kept delaying from publishing it here. It was also one of the memorable momories I have until now.

Phase 1 was hands on.
The task was simple.
Everyone of us were given an engine (a 3 cylinders might probably a kancil engine) already docked out of the body, a key, a box of tools and a cloth to wipe off oil.
We need to start the engine.if it was working
Stop the engine.
Change the timing belt.
Then try ti start again.
In 45 mins.
Change the timing belt huh? Change minyak itam sendiri pun xpernah beb.
But i did it! This Mama did it!
Juri pun xpercaya at first as a few guys didn't made it.haha

This Mama in sutera batik kurung did it! Yeah!!

But i flunked the phase 2. I did'nt like the concept. It was a group interview.
The interviewer asked the same question to all of us and we need to answer one by one. All ten of us in the room. Soalan? Dasar pendidikan negaralah.. dasar ^&@%#)! la.. there was 5 questions altogether. hahaha..everyone was copying each other words. So what the heck. Is the par that low?  Apa ni? I've been grilled to the max before, so this is not my game.So no lah. bye bye. I'm not interested.


So that's my interview stories. Interviewee..and interviewing.
Same feeling. Just which side of the table you are ;p
For those chosen congratulations and welcome to the team, and not chosen, rezeki Allah luas..dont worry.


Panjang pula on a cold monday like this.
Thank you allah for all these opportunities.
Alhamdulillah
Thanks for reading :) Really :)
I love you all :)

Proton Honda - what is so strange about that?

It is hard to please everyone....but life goes on.


Recently, Proton had launched a new re engineered model I shall call in collaboration with Honda. This had made malaysians esp furious of how a national car company could just re-badge Honda accord. But wait a minute :: Re-badge? Are you serious? Have you really seen how elongated the car is now? Hmm..and how short time they have given proton to come out with this? Well, all means said.



Not 100% agreeable.but some points are homogeneous with truth la.




Well as usual malaysians don't really care of all that. I was also bashed by some so called nationalists on questions about this car model. And I choose to just to let the flow,and let it go and on the mean time explain little about the model.



Just one comment from a friend,.woke me up. “ anak pertama haruslah harapan semua tinggi”. Ah yes, Malaysians have high expectations in their first borns. First borns must be the trend setter for the other siblings if any. And malaysian always feel deep down that proton is ours.belongs to the country (yeah..not anymore,ok?). And if anything, will bash everything on them. Like an eldest son getting 10As out of 12. With all the high hopes of the parents, do u think he will be appreciated, rejoiced. This will be a failure to his family. A failure to get straight As. But in actual he's far a high achiever. Get my point? Im not a real fan of proton either,actually because Im not really a happy customer for my persona. But my persona serves me his purpose, for the price i paid monthly.



Hehehe..mcm mcm tau org malaysia ni.wtv!




But still being an insider, I am family. And all families have the golden horns and also some skeletons in their closet somewhere. Just im happy with the gains and pains here that teaches me to be more a nationalist, a good human and how to b grateful. Which is more than money can buy J

Be grateful and proud your country produces cars. Just how many Muslims countries does that? And have a peek to our neighbours, Indonesia, Thailand and Singapore..do they have national cars? Fair enough.



Cheers! J
