Man Made Marvels Petronas Tower

Assalamualaikum and Good Day to everyone,

I received a call and sms recently, people greeting me as if I was an instant celebrity. I was featured in the Man Made Marvels programme on Dicovery Channel. I am proud to be associated with the country's icon The PETRONAS Towers. To me it was a dream comes true. I remember way back in 1994 where I passed by Jalan Ampang and saw advert on the new city centre KLCC. I wish I could contribute in the building of the nation. September 1994 was the begining of the new era for me in my engineering career. The dream which seems to be impossible has became possible and I always advise my friends, it doesn't cost you anything to dream and to dream big.
I was fortunate to be with this company which has enable me to go and visit almost half of the world to have dealing with foreign consultants, attending meetings and factory acceptance test.

I also like to share my experiences I have attained during the years with friends having the same dreams and wanting to be someone significant in the future. I rememebered the saying of Dato' Fadzilah Kamsah, " Orang yang terbaik ialah orang yang dapat memberi munafaat pada orang lain.." That is what I have been preaching my friend and children. I always told my children that I have contributed something to the construction of the nation icon; the PETRONAS Twin Towers and encourage them to be someone significant in their field as they grow older in their lifes. On the eve of 50th merdeka day, I am also proud to be Malaysian and with this little contribution of mine.

I am currently working on a new project a 59 story building next to the Twin Towers which is schedule to complete in 2011. Hope to have your prayers for the success of this new project of mine.

Thank you for all the compliments by fellow friends after watching the documentary. For those who still have not watch it. Stay tune to discovery channel Man Made Marvel PETRONAS Towers. The repeat will be aired on September 3 2007.

Thank you again...

Another Outing Day

Another Day with the family.. We went to Putrajaya again.. Melihat Bunga di Pesta Flora dan Bunga Api di Malam hari. It was interesting. This time Mohamad was joining us sight seeing before send him back to MMU. My kids managed to learn some Indonesian words with him and obviously they were also 'loya buruk'....
First they said abang " What is the meaning of Mangkuk in Indonesia?" Mohamad said " Sama in Malaysia" then they said " What is the meaning of Mangkuk Ayun" Mohamad confused and said what do you mean by that... Hahaha

The Pesta Flora was excellent took a lot of shots there. And looking at the lovely flowers, I was tempted to buy some...but my daughters made a special prayers behind me, for me not to buy any flowers and true enough when I didn't buy anything and they said alhamdulillah. Well my house is turning into a jungle now with lots of exotic plants.

The Fireworks a much better than previously but road was jammed up...

Alfatihah...


Di dalam kehidupan ini kita tidak tahu bila masa kita akan pergi....

Dalam Kesibukan tugas serta mesyuarat semalam aku sempat melawat seorang sahabat yang di masukan di IJN kerana mengidap penyakit jantung. Walaupun pada mulanya aku agak keberatan untuk pergi kerana takut tak sempat untuk menghadiri mesyuarat pada sebelah petang .. tapi hati kecil ku berkata insyallah sempat kalau nak pergi menjengah sekejap. Lebih2 lagi bile aku mengdengar dia menyebut2 dan menayakan sabahat2nya.

Perjalanan kami yang singkat dari Dayabumi ke IJN bertukar dari panas terik terus hujan dengan lebatnya seolah2 memberi sesuatu petanda kepada kami. Semasa di IJN dia kelihatan "fighting over his life" tapi sempat bersalam dgn ku dan memohon maaf dari ku... Terasa sayu hati ini melihatkan nya dan keluarga nya. I hold his hand before I leave... dengan iringan doa dan alfatihah agar dia cepat sembuh.

Mengenang kembali kehidupan nya... I think he has spend most of his life to the company. Aku teringat dia bertungkus lumus kerja sehingga lewat malam untuk pembinan MEnara kembar Petronas. Selepas siap Menara kembar dia berusaha untuk memperbaiki diri dgn bekerja sambil belajar di UTM. Orang yang sabar dan selalu ceria.. Terkadang kita lupa di sebalik kemegahan Menara Kembar itu terdapat banyak pengorbanan dari insan2 kecil seperti Din yang orang banyak terlepas pandang... Kita kadang kala hanya nampak pergorbanan org yg berpangkat tapi lupa pegorbanan org bawahan seperti Din...

SMS yang aku terima pagi ini amat mengejutkan yang mengatakan Din telah kembali kerahmatullah jam 4 pagi di Hari Jumaat yang Mulia ni. Moga allah mencucuri rahmat ke atas roh mu Din.

Pesanan ku pada sahabat2 ku... Taburkanlah bunga2 cinta buat orang yang kita sayang selagi hidupnya jangan tunggu sehingga mereka tiada kita nak taburkan bunga2 di pusara mererka...Buatla yang terbaik untuk hidup ini agar bile kita tinggalkan dunia ni kita rasa puas dan jangan la bertanggunh membuat sesuatu mungkin dengan bertangguh membuat sesuatu, kita mungkin tidak dapat berjumpa orang yang kita sayang semasa hayatnya. Mujurla hati ku berat untuk bertemu Din semalam dapat kami bermaafan. Itu la kehidupan Setiap yang hidup pasti merasaai mati.

Marilah kita hadiahkan Alfatihah untuk sahabat ku Sharuddin atau Din ... Al fatihah...

Life Have to Go On

This is the collection of my and my friends experiences about life....

When you live in a shanted house
With a natural earth floor...
With timber plank as a bed...
With a roof that you could see the sky and holes in the zinc that flow the water in the house when it rains...
With a stove using bricks and woods...
With lights from kerosene lamp to brighten the darkness at night...
No matter how difficult your life is...Life have to go on
You still need to study...
You need to be somebody...

When your thirst of love from your parents...
Who were busy earning a living and busy managing your other brothers and sisters...
You were turning to your neighbours for love and for care...
But when they moved out...
You were lost and confused...
Who are my biological parents?
The one who gives me love and care or the one who provide me shelter and food..
No matter whatever it is life have to go on...

Fireworks in Putrajaya



Ni la my photography first lesson....

Lanjutan Dari Hobi dan Peristiwa semalam


I had a pack event yesterday. Right from going to the gym in the morning, swimming, attending society meeting, visit niece and watching fireworks show. Pergi meeting di suruh pula jadi President society. Terima Kasih la atas support kamu semua melantik saya President. The meeting ended two hours. I guess the next meeting has to be in the secured place as we are dealing with priceless currency and notes where Sherena has her Straits Settlement collection which she got it from her grand parents. Sarah has hers from her father. According to Hatta there will be article coming out soon on the local paper. So sama2 la kita tunggu ye.

Lepas meeting pergi ke Putrajaya kononya nak belajar photography with a friend have hobby in photography. Terima Kasih la kerana mengajar teknik2 Photography. Cite2 tinggi to shoot the fireworks as Lesson One. But we really had a lesson ONE as the location we choose was not suitable. Bunga Api tak naik tinggi. rendah aje so taknampak ape sangat. Frust sangat and terus balik tapi bak lebai malang.. Jalan pula Jam. so ape lagi Karaoke la sendiri dalam kereta...

Itu la sekilas kisah semalam...

Hobi Mengumpul Wang Kertas


Mungkin masa kini sudah kurang orang yang mempunyai hobi berbandingkan masa saya kecil-kecil dulu. Kebanyakkan muda mudi sekarang lebih meminat alam cyber dan ade yang tak mempunyai hobi. Bagi saya hingga kini banyak juga hobi yang saya ade sekarang... Saya masih mengumpul stem, sampul surat hari pertama, Coke, baju hard rock, pokok heliconia, pokok kemboja, wang syhilling dan wang kertas.


Hari sabtu ini adalah hari yang bersejarah bagi pengumpul wang kertas untuk bertemu buat kali pertama bagi menubuhan persatuan Wang Kertas di Malaysia dan memupuk minat di kalangan Rakyat Malaysia. So siapa yang mempunyai koleksi wang kertas dan berminat untuk bersama-sama meraikan perjumpaan pertama kami, di jemput hadir di Restoran Aladin di Kelana Jaya berdekatan dgn Giant. To be frank saya pun tak pernah ke sana...

Sama-sama la kita ke sana

Trip to Indonesia

It has beeen quiet sometime since I last went to Indonesia. Indonesia has changed my perception and perspective about the people especially when I see Jakarta to be 8 times bigger than Kuala Lumpur. The politicians need to do more for the 200 million population that they have. You just see people everywhere.

My first trip there was just by shear coincidence.... I managed to get the offer ticker of RM49.90 return on Airasia and supposed to go there with a good friend of mine Masnoor. We supposed to board the plane in Johor Bahru. I was living in Ipoh at that time and had to fetch him in Kuala Lumpur. With all the excitement of going to Indonesia turn sour when Masnoor was not able to go since his passport was due to expire. Goosh! I am going there alone!. I didn't book the hotel and I said to myself worst come to worst I would board the same plane once I reach there should I don't have any assistance.

Masnoor gave his 'Adek Angkat' hp number Andy and I also have my 'Anak Angkat' Dimas hoping one of them will be there to assist me. Thank god Dimas waited for me at the airport and assisted me with the hotel and be my guide when I was there. That was when I met Ariwibowo @ Plaza Indonesia. Indonesia is big city and I just couldn't image how people survive there.
I when for karaoke with Dimas and I heard for the first time the Sharul Gunawan's song Janji.

My subsequent trip i went to Bali, Jogja and Solo.....


So last week we had another trip to Solo to visit my bro in law there. Nine of my family members went including my mom and brother. We depart on Friday morning and we went straight to Pasar Kelewer as soon as we arrived. The next day we went to Jogja and visited Borobudur. We also went to Tawangmanggu a water fall off Solo... very refreshing and scerene.
