Some Key Public Sector Economic Policies

Some Key Public Sector Economic Policies For The Forseeable Future

Since the early 1980s, we have stressed that this country will rely on the private sector as the primary engine of economic growth. In a way we were ahead of the rest of the world, even the developed countries in entrusting economic growth to the private sector.

A new vision! and feeling healthier.

I found a new piece of multi purpose wiping cloth which is 100% micro fibre for cleaning my glasses. Then I take care to avoid oil or dirt by washing my hands first. Walla.. Now my glasses is really clean and I’m feeling like singing”I can see clearly now..the rainy days…. I can see all obstacles in my way…nananana It’ll be a bright, a bright, sun shiny day” What song is that I love that song. :)

Yesterday I did walk quite some distance u down the stairs from my 3rd floor office. And I miss my train which make me stand for quite  bit. I feel a bit healthier by walking around like that. Previous night I got to play ping pong with Azmi, so that’s a good benefit too. A good S life make you feel better to.

Anyway there’s a little farewell party later on. I need to clean up my confirmation report and go there. Later.

Makan sikit2 lebih nikmat.

Teringat kata abg jenal aritu. Aku ajak dia makan. “Makan Bang Jenal makan”. Dia kata “aku dah tua2 makan sikit je boleh”. So dia makan slow n steady. Pastu dia kata kalau makan sikit2 lagi best kita dapat lebih nikmatnya.

Aku pun teringat yang kalau nak kuruskan badan memang makan sikit2 supaya tak terus telan banyak sekaligus.

Dan sekarang aku tengah makan sebiji epal sederhana, secara berdikit2. And it’s good. :)

PhD stuff!

Ok, back to work. I got this red marks all over my documents for my PHD that need repair. I need to improve my typing skills. Keep typing ‘the’ with ‘teh’. Keep on improving. Kaizen or CANI ala Tony Robbins. :)

The people in my communities here want to have a celebration of Hajj. We’re growing as a communities here. There’re a lot of Malaysians come here to do their PhD. Looks like the policy of no UK, make Aussie the next place to do PhDs. It’s more difficult to enter US univ for PhD with their GRE exam etc. Well it’s their loss.

The money invested is big and Malaysians students are usually can be a very good researcher with a lot of publications created. So no papers for them. The Aussies is really capitalizing on this I see. There’re so  many universities here which cater to post grads and under grads. They win both way.

Perhaps Malaysia can follow this strategy. Problem is the reverting of teaching from English to BM might cause us big time later.

My fondness grew on my iphone

I read the “finger tips: that came with the Iphone package and I found a few shortcuts on handling the Iphone.

Now I’m having more fun when I tried using it. I can listen to music while looking at maps. I can zoom in with double click and zoom out with with single two fingers click. I can zoom in to see baby’s face when she’s little with just double click and zoom out with the same.

So far the best is using the remote on my headphone to control the songs on my Ipod apps on the Iphone. This is really cool. I can control playback, next,prev, volume.  I wonder if I have just saving too much previously and miss the opportunity to play with technology and be mesmerized and enjoy life better with it.

I had a mp3 player before and a pda before. I bought the mp3 player, creative zen2 the big 30GB capacity on eBay. It’s good until one time it can’t be charged anymore.

I had all my songs there, my webinar recordings on IM stuff. really love and enjoy it. I think I’ll embrace technology as they come. But being a tad financially conservative( thanks to Kiyosaki) I’m going to enjoy technology not at the beginning of a S curve but maybe towards the end.

When I was younger with a little less pay, I’ll have to wait till the S curve is gone even when a new S curve emerge. Now I’m older with a bit more money to spare I could start to use technology as it come to the middle of the S curve. Maybe soon I’ll get technology as soon as it starts the cycle. :)

BTW S curve is a term in engineering product development where a lifetime of a product is represented by a curve looking like the letter ‘S’ hence the name S curve.
