2) My country and to every individual honest and loyal citizen.

Biography

The author is Kedahan (Northern State of Malaysia), born on December 25th, the Christmas day of 1956.

He was Malay entrepreneur who was fail in his engineering entrepreneurship in Klang Valley. His effort only can sustain until 1998 just for 14 years of period.

Then he became free-lance specialist on scientific and high tech equipment/instruments.

His job was inclusively repair, service, modification, planning and installation (especially new equipment), shifting and refurbishment mainly didactic for universities, colleges and polytechnics.

It is also including design of small machines, iron structures (building, trusses), framework and system (like conveyor or elevator) for contractors, factories, institutions (like standard body-i.e. SIRIM in Malaysia).

Beside that he also involve in shipbuilding and maintenance plus certain special projects.

He started his primary school in Kedah, SK Siputeh, then secondary SM Pulau Nyiur and SM Sultan Abdul Halim, Jitra.

Then he joins UKM (National University of Malaysia) as one of the pioneer students of matriculation course and become student after.

He fails to finish his study in UKM.

Alternatively, later he obtains his Diploma in Mechanical Engineering from Bedford College of Kuala Lumpur and Certificate in Electrical and Instrumentation from Chemical Company of Malaysia Bhd (ICI group of companies).

In UKM he strives to get substantial knowledge in physics and chemistry which it is then real applied along his carrier.

With his low intellectuality and low IQ he cannot carry the ‘truck load’ of so many subjects in one go which is not related to the core subject. (There is about time where the syllabus starts pushing to compact doubling and doubling and variety).

He walks out in third year with a lot of useful (for his life) and tangible knowledge without any degree is very thankful to UKM.

About the Author

The Failure and free-lance job was gave him tremendously a lot of experience (in variety) with in huge range of works, for example:

o Precision and rough¹

o Hygienic (food & drugs) and sewage (machinery and pumps);

o Bull power and brain power;

o Underground and tower;

o Tableland and high hill;

o Shipbuilding and anchorage (International water);

o Welding/climbing and paper work;

o Design and fabricate (machine and iron works);

o Installation and refurbishment;

o Blue jacket and neck-tie (white collar);

o Decent car and lorry (small);

o Low class and high class (+ expatriate);

o Train/Teach/instruct the people and attend technical course/seminar;

o Malaysia and over sea;

o Coffee shop/food stall and coffee house;

o Small enterprise and Public Listed companies.

o Tender and auction;

o Police station, IPD (district) and IPK (contingent);

o Beggars and gangsters;

o Cleaver and pistol;

o Court and prison.

As his faith (in Muslim) he keens to admonish anybody (except sultans) preferably in writing (more responsibility) with his own signature. May be this is drive for emerges of this book. Some earlier experiences were in:

• 1984-Goodyear Tire (American director) - a few series and total more than 100 pages.

• 1990-ITM (Mara Institute of Technology, now university); it is about 20 pages.

• 1999-Islamic courts judges (Selangor) – series of 4 booklets for the total about 400 pages; (gradually some bombastic)

• 2005-KUKUM’s (now UniMap, University Malaysia Perlis) reactor – 4 series of email for the total of 16 pages;

• 2006-2007- the 5th Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi – series of 5 booklets (Warkah untuk Pak Lah), total of 1,000 pages; (gradually then bombastic)

• 2008-2009 – DPM, then PM Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak – series of 3 booklets, total of 121 pages.

He is very hateful and regret when seeing any hypocrite leader who is talking nonsense, claim flourish success but in actual is upside down. He prefers any leader to keep quiet or at least don’t talk contrary.

This book refers to his real face to face public experience and also his own experience in difficulty and hardship time. As his experience he used to eat rice 2 or 3 days once (following by biscuits on next a few day alternately) with 2 or 3 packets of noodles with heavy liquidate for his family of five.

He never regret as he can help to voice out in real ground of poverty which most of them just only can cry nobody want to listen to them.

With no choice (in thinking of his believe and for his life in the Day After) he has to become non salary ‘representative’ for people.

In this book he continues his admonition to the leader with some offer of his old alternative (earlier) proposals (if they don’t have) since 2007.

Any leader should avoid from too much depend on old fashion thinking, classical ‘vertical logic’ sometimes should change to ‘horizontal imagination’ – lateral thinking. If one still maintains ‘vertical logic’; ‘the iron cannot fly’ but now everybody know differently, 600 tonnes can fly with 6 engines.

His principle is universal; the leader (who claim as Muslim) must be clever enough for whole citizen and definitely not for his own and crony (like Saidina Umar, who always become last and so on).

Any leader who is reaching the point of ‘no more capable’, no gut to benefit for people has to step down peacefully like most gentleman non-Muslim leader does.

The country no needs to be ruin for the sake of any leader.

He strong believe the God (Allah on his faith) has put him in details of every step by step since beginning for all of this to be happen because it is was proven that he is not clever man and with low IQ.

Prologue

I am very sorry to my English and whatever related to this book.

This is self-publishing. So nobody outside should bear the responsibility. Everything should be direct to me.

This is special case ‘not a book’ just ‘a grumble from the sky’ and assimilate in the book shape and incomparable.

I just supposed to write in Malay but then due to the ‘standard’ Malay problem all the way, inadvertently I found this way out.

Finally you can see this bad and maybe the ugliest book. I’m realised but I had no effort to transfer this book into proper manner. So, please don’t consider this is a proper book to refer except for the point of idea.

Coffee shop

This is a coffee shop (not coffee house) and itinerant food stall standard of discussion. The traditional English syntax sometime not make a sense or it will tend to be wrong meaning or meaningless to the current and local context.

Bombastic! Yes the sound is due to too long way to wait rakyats’ (citizen) acceptable result. Very long stories, program with poetic, flamboyant, shouting, crying, censure (whoever with dissenting opinion) bragging and whatever projection still need proper deadline.

Tomorrow rakyats’ bread and butter or children’s school fees cannot wait to another Malaysia general election to receive windfall from swarm of Malay government bees. They no need a billion or a million even hundreds of thousand dollars. They count dollar and cent and tightly grasp securely even just a coin. It must be clearly understood by any country leader.

Most of peoples especially administrators or leaders are need to be admonishing. In Islamic faith it was stressed a lot in the Quran. This two is common reference (Quran-51Adz Dzaariyaat; 55). (Quran-87Al A´laa; 9).

Even Prophet Mohammed had admonished by the God (Quran-80 Abasa)². It looks like a small matter. Maybe it is purposely small case is to shows how important it is as guidance. Large troop of elephants soldiers sometime least impact to a single mosquito that can kill a greatest king.

Everybody need a good advice / adviser and should listen for whatever would become the ‘mandatory’ solution.

For example; ‘You cannot do anything regarding high tech to the Malays… and sub-example; Sabirin³ with 100 engineers make small satellite maybe about a quarter size of a car with the cost of RM400 million within 3 or 4 years

Typical Malay who with ‘Menberuk’⁴ brainchild will think it was a rubbish drum because it looks alike. Yeah 400 million rubbish drum as about the cost of making Proton (Malaysia national car) plant in 1980’s or half price of Penang Bridge.

Since environmentally is good, the choice is back to agriculture but it should be in new ‘synergy’. Mechanise, gradually adopt some technology and move to more on machine-assisted rather than labour intensive, concentrate more on small-holders, you will be reward with very clear way out.

Then Malay majority will have a lot of thing to do. No more free time for stupid politicking like their Malay leaders who is twenty four hours per day and 365 days a year until next general election. Off that time if any just for plundering whatever could and for distributing loot amongst their gang.

Bombastic

SPECIAL NOTE: By some sincerely advice, this book was reviewed due to the ‘bombastic’. Right now the readers should be in mild taste.

Maybe question arouse, why should be bombastic. The answer is too much time waiting and promise for significant effect but now worse and very crucial even for basic need. The Malay leader just simply ignores and consequences all the time badly spend out for real poverty.

No more delay is acceptable, either outcast or go back to start all over again. At the moment the ‘time’ is already sharper than a sword to outcast the Malaysian Malay but the Malay leader as usual will sing his demented song Malaysian ♫♩on track♪ towards high♬ income status♩♪$$$$……..

Hopefully this will support the entire movement of Malaysian salvage. Inchal ♬lahhh♩♪….. God willing….♩♪….., sang of Salvatore Adamo.

If you still need to talk about soft and polite admonishing, we can jump to part 5 – The Current Situation. Then we quote an example newspaper cutting -‘Global Competitiveness’⁵ Or very much earlier (Nov 2008), with very politeness of Anuar Mohd Nor who is UMNO (United Malays National Organisation) backbencher itself already express out the worry which become true right now in his magazine ‘Suara Baru’⁶. This was distributing until Brunei.

The Malay leader won’t cares and makes like nothing to be happen to the Malay. The Malay is just lean on the rotten railing of vessel deck and 24 hours fighting. Fight and fight to be outcast as the main major job.

Now we can continue all these matter in there (Part 5).

Coffee House

Another area of concern is why not ‘coffee house’.

It was needed accordingly. This book exists not for the sake of making the book but ‘crying of hardship, poignant and non-heard voice of rakyat (citizen)’. The target is for all level of society especially middle and lower class.

That you can see a lot of photographs (images) inside. It is the easiest way to everybody, images and imagines – with the images, you no more need to suffer to imagine. There is sometime a complete whole exercise of the book is incomparable to a single of presentable photograph.

‘High class’ discussion already flooded in the market either forums / reports, books or journal even newspaper. More over there is Majlis Profesor Negara (Professor Council) where all professors automatically are a member. There were 14 clusters and much unlimited idea.

Malaysia is not in main disaster belt or perimeter. Any projection is straight-forward not like other country which more jobs to consider earth-quake or heavy rain and landslide. Another area is, real ‘bonus’ as Malaysia don’t have 4 seasons. So easy the Malay leader cannot do?

It is good to remind to everybody, any gradually up for wrong-doing and bribery practise will end like Marcos & Imelda of Philxxxxxx. Sooner or later the leader will be pulling down. The longer they ‘fight with rakyat’ (for their own sake) more suffer they will get latter.

‘Outside in’

Malay leaders have right time and very good ground and suppose to learn from Tun
