Alarm

First month of year 2007 is nearly end and this is the busy month in my life. Busy of what? I busy of taking care of my little Danish. Yesterday night I tried to write a article for my blog. My little Danish start making noise and force me to cease. When I think back while I was a bachelor and no much commitment. There were plenty of time for me and sometime can feel boring especially come to weekend. But now after married and have a naughty Danish. I found time is limited for me. Now I can feel that set up a family is a tough job especially when you have a baby in your house.

Danish is our daily alarm without fail. He ensure that he will give the “morning call” to his papa and mama by “Wah…..wah….wah….”. This alarm can not be stopped unless a bottle of milk put into his mouth and the “alarm” will change to difference music as “suc….suc…suc…” This is the sound come out from Danish when he suck the milk. The best part is he able to close his eye and suck his milk. Normally after finish the milk, he will continue to sleep again. However, recently he start play around after finish his milk. He turn around and chit-chat in his “international language”. He like to talk especially at night day. He refuses to sleep until we off all the light.

I can see that his mum is really tired of taking care of this naughty Danish. But when you see he start smile to you, you will forget all the tiredness. This is the great of having a baby in a family. He change our life as papa and mama.

Love Him

“Why we live?” This is a question posted to me by my boss when he was down on last week. There are many people take for granted and ignore their responsible. Finally, innocent people is blamed for the delay.

When we grow older and older, our mind will start to think especially when we are frustrating. “Why we live?”, “Why we work hard?”, “Why we need to earn plenty of money?”, “Why we need to marry?” and too many question marks will appeal in our mind. It happen to a lot of professional people including to my boss.

To answer above doubt, I found the answer on yesterday night when I accompanied my wife to watch a drama. The drama was regarding a young University boy wanted to chase a beautiful girl in campus. He prayed to God that allowed him to get the girl without any obstacle. His lecture was disappointed with he action and advised him that we should pray to Him with sincerely without any purpose and same wording used by my boss. We must love Him before He able to love us.

According to the lecture in the drama, we pray to Him to ask for peace and subsequently our life will be in peace. Are you believe Him? Amin.

Goal…..Goal……Goal

This is no the soccer goal but is our life goal. We are just step in year 2007 and everybody should have their own ambition and objective for the year. Those still in blind and does not know what is happening. Never Mind. Ask yourself either you still want to enjoy “sleep” or “wake up”. Decision on you and nobody can stop you from “sleep”.

Why some people success in their life but you still struggling to earn money and normally these categories of group use to complaint the insufficient of government policies. Is the government fault?

The main reason is on You. You do not work hard enough on your goal or mostly people do not have their goal and just blindly work for the whole life. So, are you want to change your attitude towards success?

Goal is similar like a compass. It directs you to a correct direction. But how to set a goal? Good question. Last week, I received an email from Synergy Entire Sdn. Bhd. Regarding “Do you have your goals for FY 2007”. It is an informative article where it should share among our blogger.

According to the article, “the basic of setting goals give us short term and long term motivation and focus on the acquisition of required knowledge and help you to plan and organize your resources and your time so that you can get the best out of your life.”

There are 6 vital tips are given when we set our goal

1. Attitude plays a very big role in setting and achieving your goals
a. Ask yourself whether you want to be different from other people.
b. Always remember Malaysia Slogan “Malaysia Boleh”. There is nothing is impossible to be implemented.
c. Mindset change to human life.

2. Good time management practice
a. Be a master of time rather than become slave of time”.
b. This have been a nitty-gritty that people always get into this track.
c. A lot of people use to complaint than 24 hours does not enough to work, are you one of them? Time planning is important how far do you want to go into your business or career.
d. Look at the school children. They also have time table for their class. Learn from them.

3. Education is key in achieving your goals
a. Upgrade and develop your knowledge or skill regularly especially we are in the blog.
b. Learn as much as you can and never cease read habit.

4. Your family should never be left out of your plans
a. Family is a backbone of a successful businessman or woman. Give reasonable time for your family and respect to senior citizen where if you treat your parent well nowadays. Subsequently, your generation also will treat you well in future.
b. Personal tip: Married a knowledgeable life partner and do not marry because of SEX.

5. Personal financial situation
a. This is a realistic issue. Plan free of debt by planning your daily expenses. Ensure save 10% of your salary to accumulate wealth.

6. Determining your physical capabilities
a. Healthy means everything. Exercise regularly and eat healthy food to ensure you can work hard to earn money.
b. Do not forgive medical fee is increasing annually Please take precaution before you admitted to hospital.

I believe you have plenty goals to be achieved especially if you are blogger. But always review your plans and prepare for contingencies.

I wish you happy new year 2007 and bless your goals for 2007.

Saddam Hussein

Calendar 2006 ends up with The Death of ex-President of Iraq, Saddam Hussein. No doubt we can not deny that he has been murdered a lot of innocent people and he should be punished. But did Washington do the right punishment at right time? It happened on the important day for all the Muslim in the world where Muslim went for Hajj. The action has been annoyed by a lot of parties’ especially Muslim countries. Why Washington hang Saddam on this innocent day for Muslim? Are they want to show their egoism to others countries that they are the stronger in this world. I believe the situation will be getting worse especially the attached from terrorist. We always look for peace and anti-war. If everybody wants to show power, there is no end of the war.

He created us and subsequently one day He will destroy us if we still eager of power. Please think if you still have a clear mind.

My Little

Happy new year to you. This was a tough starting year for me. The first week of year 2007, my little Danish has been admitted to hospital due to diarrhea. Initial, we though it was a normal fewer when the baby shifted to new environment and we send him to normal clinic for treatment. This naughty boy re-act active when he saw people especially pretty nurse. He will try to move his hand and leg to show his ego. The doctor gave him quite a lot medicines. The problem was this intelligent guy did not like the medicine taste and he will vomited and cried. The way he cried liked somebody abused him. He very stubborn and vomited all the medicine caused the fewer and diarrhea getting worse. This little made his mum cried because he refused to take medicine and the milk. Finally, my mum advised me to sent this little to specialist for better treatment. The service provided by this specialist was tip-top. Every couple hours, the nurse and doctor will check Danish temperature and waste. They looked professional except we could not stand for the air-condition-too cold. After stayed for 2 nights, finally we were able to discharge Danish and his health condition also in stable. Even though the fee was expenses but we satisfied their treatment. As a parent, we could not concentrate for other job when your little suffer in sick. This is my little Danish. He created sadness, happiness, angriness and all soft of emotion to us. He make our life more colorful especially he cry……….cry………..cry….

Bad Day

This is the fourth day I shifted my Danish and his mum to Malacca. There are many things to be done including the house furniture. The worst part is Danish in fever after reach to new place. He vomited after took the medicine. We worried his health after saw the medicine came out form his nose. Luckily mother came and assisted me. After went for second clinic, Danish has been partially recovered on yesterday night and he start play with his mum by this morning. Unfortunately, his mum also sick and perhaps due to the tiredness of moving to new environment. Hence, I will temporary stop blogging until my family fully recovered.

Best Regard

Queue for gaming

“Buy me Big $120 small $10 for xxxx” This is part of the dialog from yesterday Singapore movie regarding lottery gaming. I believe that most of the people are involved in this “investment” games.

Apparently, lottery gaming can be grouped into legal and illegal gaming. Legal gaming is well protected by government. You do not need to worry police will catch you because government gain a lot from this sector. You need to pay tax once you win the prize. So, your money is well declared and you also can put as source of income in your income tax form. This is no the “black money”.

However, no all the number can be purchased especially the number is “hot”. I mean demanding number or lucky number where all the people are chasing for that particular number. So, the possibility to buy the number is low. The other alternative method is by illegal group. You can easily locate them in rural area. A lot of people do “investment” in here. The method of this illegal group runs their business very similar to direct sell system. They have their “well train” outlet or broker. They are smart in using technology as their leverage to communicate such as fax, internet, PDA and etc.

This illegal activities occurred every way, every moment especially there is football tournament either local or international level. Every game they are bet and the amount involved is not small. Police attempt to catch them but it like the story cat and rat. Never have end story.

Asia community treat lottery gaming as part of their life. 3 times per week and they never miss ever one game. I really respect their loyalty to their “investment”. We used to advice people to save 10% of your income but this smart group are using this 10% or more to “invest” in their future. The worst part some borrow money from loan sharp to buy lottery. The sad story I think I do not need to tell you here. You can image what can happen to their family.

Human always is the intelligent creature in this world. Some people use this gaming weakness as their business tool. You know what they create. Analysis the lottery number by using statistic software. Is it part of leverage? Ha…ha..ha..please comment.

Back to yesterday movie. These 3 Singaporean pals involved in illegal gaming and finally two of them were caught by enforcement. I do not know whether I shall greet them as businessman or not. You know what these 2 gentlemen did this the jail. They asked one of them friend to buy lottery on behalf of them. How they get the number? If I tell you, perhaps you also will laugh but it happen because I saw it on last weekend.

They pray to the tree, rock and whatever they think that the spiritual can give them lucky number. The worst part is pray to Malaysia boundary stone. What is happening to our people? Damn crazy.

Government used to advise to invest but people has wrong concept of the investment. None of us has take action to cease this immoral activity. It like drug because once you get in and you are found difficult to escape. Believe me. I also part of them previously.

Let me calculate for you. I take $1 per game @ 3 games per week @ 4 weeks per month @ 12 months per year. You know how much you spend? $144 per annual. This is just a $1 investment but I believe most of the people invest more $1. Am I right? How many times you will? Ask yourself.

The second secret I would like to share with you is do you notice that lottery share used to give high divided or bonus to their investor. You know where source of income is. I honestly tell you my dear lottery friend; the money is from your pocket money.

Wake up….wake up….my dear lottery friend. We still have a week to welcome New Year, so take this opportunity to review back what you have done for the past. Cease invest in this immoral game. Keep your hardship income for your family. Prevent before cute. Happy New Year 200 :)

Ho….Ho….Ho

Next week is Christmas and for those Christian family is rushing to shop for their last preparation.

Time goes very fast and we are in the end of year 2006. One of my blog friends http://ipoh_mari.blogspot.com wrote the article about achievement of the year 2006. Thus, I also would like to share my achievement with him.

I took my daily and review what I did for the part 11 months ago. I noticed that I had been traveled from South (Johor) to North (Perlis), North to East (Sarawak) and last back to my origin-Melaka. Travel for the whole year mainly to earn money. However, I still have some backlog projects still unable to settle where the expiry date is middle of year 2007 and there is one of my objectives for year 2007. After I left from Planter career, I always treat my present service as my business. Once I solved the problem, then I am sure that the income will channel to me subsequently but I need to work hard and gap the opportunity. Overall, I still can not see the profit where I have spent 2 years effort in my present business but I believe what I do at present is for my future and my next generation.

Work is important. Never forget your family. I spare about 10% of my time with my wife and I think this is not a quality time for her especially now I have my little Danish. Hence, I decided to shift them to Melaka on 1 January 2007. I wish they will happy to stay with me at the new environment where I choose for them.

The great achievement for the year 2006 is the gift of Danish by Him to my wife and me. We really appreciated Him. Danish change our life and it is something “promotion” to us as a new couple. Finally, we are promoted as papa and mama. Last week, we noticed that the little Danish are able to call “mama” when he is hungry. I think this is the first word wanted to hear by a female call mama. Is it wonderful? You also will cry when yours little start to greet you as mama or papa.

I still remember Danish’s mum used to sms me that the little Danish never “sit” quietly when he was in his mum stomach. He liked to turn around and worst part he did on night day caused his mum could not sleep well but his mum never complaint. The patience, love and care were given to this little I really respected to my lovely. I believed all the mum have the same attitude (mother love) to their baby because they are your own blood.

911 is the date where terrorist attached US Twice Tower and this is my Danish said “Hello” to our world. However, the journey to this world is not easy as I think before Him release Danish. This guy took more than 12 hours to “report” and makes his papa and mama damn worried. He could not bear in nature method and needed to do operation. I ceased all my work and concentrated on them. I worried because this is my first baby. I could not sleep and eat well during that period and just remember my lovely and the baby.

I understand that my lovely was suffering after more than 12 hours. She was exhausted and pain when I looked at her. I very worried and I only can pray to Him and requested Him to safe my lovely and my little Danish. I could not afford to lose them because they are everything to me. I love them very much.

About 10.15pm on September 9. Finally, I am able to hear my little Danish “cry” from the operation room. I damn happy and excited but the nurse told me that she needed to rush to incubator room immediately because my baby lack of Oxygen. We rushed to the incubator room immediately. After placed Danish in the incubator, he was able to breathe in normal and the great action he did was smile to me. J He knows I am his papa.

After Danish in stable condition, I rush back to operation room to see my wife. About 11pm. Thanks God. My wife is safe. I could not believe that the “game” is over. I shook hand with the doctor and all the staff involved where they had did a great job. I really respected them. They are my angel.

The whole week I was with them. I visited them from morning until late evening. Took pamper for Danish and food for my wife. It was tired but when I looked at my wife and the baby, I forgot all the tiredness.

In incubator room, I saw many “unlucky” babies were located here because of their health problem. Some of them are thin and small. Pity to see them. But no to my little Danish. He is huge and his weight reach 3.5kg and this is the main reason he could not born in nature way. Last week, his weight increased to 5.5 after 3 months. So, what do you think of my Danish.

For those friends whose wife in pregnant period please spent more time with your lovely? They are brave to born the baby for you. Never ignore them. Moral support is important during that period. Temporary forget your duty and accompany her until you hear “wa….wa….wa”. You will cry.

Thus, my wife and Danish are my great achievement for the year 2006.

Ho…Ho…Ho…Merry Christmas to you all.

Are you happy with your income?

Most of us are in this rat circle and for the parents whom have children. We will always think of our daily income.

Stages Duty
0 Born. Baby need to learn how to cry then they will be feed
10 Primary school. Child needs to study and show good result to parent. Parent will reward.
20 University. For those excellent in education. You should be in this stage. You duty is get your degree, master or PHD.
30 Plan for marriage, get baby and subsequently set a home for yourself
40 Plan for retire
50 Health problem. Medical increasing annually
60 Suffer of income. Cease working

Do you like this type of life pattern? Definitely the answer is “No”. How we are going to escape from this circle.

Our education system never teaches us about how to generate money with smart method. Your teacher or your parent will ask you to become doctor, lawyer, accountant or others professional. None of them will teach us what is money? Why we need money? How to utilize money? How to generate income by money?

Government only teaches us how to save in Bank. Thus, we only have one direction. Keep money in saving account.

A lot of people especially in urban area are in debt situation.

The worst part is debt with loan shark. Pity incident have been happening recently. A Chinese couples murdered their 3 children before they suicide to end their life. After investigation by police, they found that they are in deep debt. Finally, the 3 innocent boys were killed due to their parent financial problem. Are this faith? Why these couples want to choose this option of their life? Think of your children before borrow money. Keep away from loan shark and live in simple life. I believe if we work hard and sincere, Him will guide you.

When I was in estate, I noticed that most the family in estate life in simple life. They do not have debt because everything is provided. They just need to work and earn money. Some of them are able to invest in land property. How much their salary per month? I can sincerely tell you than only less than RM2,000 per month for a tapper.

The secret is how you budget for your life. Plan to rich, no plan to fail. You do not need to become a businessman to be rich. Learn how to save and invest. This is a simple road to rich direction.

Take care of your friend


One of my niece asked me on last weekend.
Kak : "Uncle ...uncle, I don't want play with Am?".
Uncle Lai: "Why? Kak"
Kak : "Am don't want to play with me."

Hence, uncle lai went and catched the naughty Am. He attempted to run and he could not escape from his uncle.

Uncle Lai : "Am, why you do not want play with Kak?"
Am : "I do not want play with girl."
Uncle Lai : "You naughty boy. You better treat all your pal as your friend. Others wise you will lonely because you like to bully people"

Uncle Lai showed the above photo.

Uncle Lai : "Am, what do you see from the photo?"
Am : "Ei..mouse on top of toad"
Uncle Lai : "Am, you see. There are two difference speciel but still can help each other. But you..."
Am : "Sorry uncle. I will treat all my pal as the toad do on the mouse. Bye"

The little Am and Kak run from me and play together again.

The above photo show that friendship is very important. Toad and mouse also can help each other when there is a disaster. How about us? Even between relative, we also fighting each others. Thus, hei human. Please think and follow the above animal attitude without consider about the race, culture and religious. We grow with our friend. We share problem, sadness and happiness with friend.Thus, appreciate your surrouding friend and do not follow my naughty niece-Am.

Appreciate our River

I just reach at Malacca on last weekend. This is my second Department Irrigation and Drainage (DID) project during the year. First was the Kuching City, Sawarak and now for Balakong, Selangor. However, this is no a survey article. Here I would like to share with you the experience when I did the survey on this “dirty” river. In fact, I feel shameful of our Malaysian attitude towards to our river. None of us appreciate this nature.

I was appointed to survey this 4 km river around Balakong area at Selangor. As a surveyor, we can not escape from this kind of duty. We need to go down into the river but this time the river quality is too dirty and force me to write this article.

When I reach at the site and look at the river. Wah ! Dark yellowish color. My long pant sure be “polluted” and very hardly can find a fish in this river. The worst part is I personally see by naked eye, all the residents treat the river as “rubbish bin”. Some are more “educated”, they packed in plastic before throw. Others just simply throw the dirt or rubbish as they like. Damn dirty because I am the victim down there can feel the smell but I do not have others option rather than just allow the rubbish pass through me. My whole body is surrounded by uncomfortable smell, even to my car….No choice, just observe and carry out my duty as surveyor. Poor guy L

A flood is a normal incident after heavy downpour at urban area in Malaysia. A lot of property being damaged and it recall me at Sawarak. The flight also delay due to this disaster because air port full of water. Haha…

People use to point finger to Government if there is a flood occur. DID spent plenty money on this matter but it never be resolved if we do not educate our people. See at our neighbor-Singapore. A compound will be fined on you if you simply throw rubbish.

We must change our Malaysian attitude. By using this huge amount to others sector, I believe our nation will grow more steady and attach more investor to Malaysia. Education on this matter should be considered by our government, start with the explosion to young generation that loves our river. River is a free gift from HIM, appreciate the nature of river before we regret in one day.

How to handle Data Management

How to manage your data and document in systematic and cost effectiveness? Normally we always ignore this simple data management and simply file our document. We would not see the problem until after a few months or a few years. We can not locate the file and it happen to me on last Thursday.

One of my clients was looking for a details plan for his drainage design. The survey was done by my company on year 1999. Luckily the customer has the reference drawing number where enable me to do the search in the office. But when I found the file, no documents are found.

This is a poor data management system and today there is an article write about how an effectiveness assistant or clerk can assist their boss in data management.

We do not need to invest for buying an expensive software or hardware. This data management is cheap and everybody is able to handle. This data management is using color paper to differential the type of documents. Below are some of the examples:-

  • Blue for Plan
  • Yellow for internal document
  • Red for external document
  • Oren for calculation
  • Green for work progress, payment and etc.



There are many color paper you can use. By looking at the color, everybody can look for the document requested. Do it now if you have not started because time is money. Do not waste your time in searching document as it happened to me.

This is a simple and effectiveness system to run your business.

Thank you for read my article.

Leadership

Sorry for the late reply. My boss went for oversee conference and I had to handle most of the land matter cases and unable to reply your mail until today. Firstly, I very appreciate your quality comments. I really agree with your view regarding “A right person with right attitude is so important instead of academic preference”.

6 and half years in KLK, I learn a lot from this giant company. I monitor how a manager re-act when a problem occur either in Kekayaan or Kerling. Most of them have their strength when handling problem but with difference dimension; Mr. Tan Han Chi, Mr Sin, Mr. Chelvanathan and the last is Mr. Lingam. But I noticed that senior manager management is more to human management rather than technical unless you do not know and they will guild you.

I try to relate your comment on “no brain”. Most of the executives employed by Taiko are holding a diploma or degree but most of us do not have agricultural background. To me as a surveyor, I need to learn from zero. I still remember my first task in kekayaan was control rat population problem at PM1998/418 before they assigned me on SuperHigh Project. None of my colleague guild me and I blindly went down to field and learn how to do rat bait. Many of staff and workers laughed at me. Tuan with “Long pant and a big hat”. I did not care because I had my objective why I joined plantation. I needed to work to support my parent and my sibling still schooling at that moment. Hence, I forced myself to enjoy the plantation work and I think my performance was not bad which I have contributed to these 2 operating centers.

I still remember my neighbor operating center in kekayaan, the manager used to scold my Malay friend in front of workers without closing the office door. I used to discuss this matter to my second senior manager and he also disagreed with this manager behavior. Respect is important even though there is a range between manager and executive or to worker. I still remember (OD) Mr. Lim Hong Joong when he visited the SuperHighway in year 1999. I was appointed to follow OD, Mr Lim and GM, Mr. Chandran because I was the executive whom did survey work from Kekayaan to Landak. The GM wanted to “bully” me on survey matter (Perhaps I just newly join). But, Mr. Lim disagreed with the GM and listened to a surveyor view how to solve the matter. I think there should be a leader attitude towards success.

It happened to most of the executives in KLK and they called it “pressure”. I was lucky because worked for 61/2 years. None of my manager scolded me. My friend used to tell me I always have “Good” manager. Let me tell my friend story to you, when they were scold. They will ignore the problem or just obey the instruction. This is not a win-win situation and both parties were in losing situation. The operating center can not run in smooth condition because estate working environment needs teamwork. Everybody has their duty and responsible. I used to tell my staff that respect worker before you earn the respect.

Hence, I would like to summarize that all the executives have brilliant brain. The trick is how to utilize their brain to work for you. There will another topic to be discussed.

Leadership is vast topic if we want to discuss. We need to great leader to lead but most of the executives are follower and fear to fail because top management does not like fail. Thus, everyone become “Yes Group”. I think I should cease talking nonsense.

Please send my regards to all the top managements where they have been given a trust to a surveyor to run their operating center.

Thank you for read my article.

Adsense Program-Leverage

Internet income is an unreliable income but difficult to accept by Malaysian including my parent whom run a business more than 30 ++ years. The business in their mind must have physical warehouse, goods, workers, vehicles and etc. There is a conventional method of business. However, the concept of business should change with the global changes.

The creation of internet makes a huge impact to world. Globalization is power leverage in internet world. The customer you looking for is not limited but to the whole world. How you gap this opportunity? “Knowledge and information”. This are the main keywords people are searching for in the internet but a lot of people want free information.

How to use this powerful leverage to generate money? But free of change? The answer is by Google Program-Adsense.

How I find the “Adsense Program”? I should take this opportunity to thanks to my lovely wife whom subscribes a religion magazine on behalf on me a year ago. Initial I subscribe the magazine to fulfill her because she knows that I am a person whom never believes of God. I never touch the magazine but my wife will ensure I read the article magazine. Religion magazine is damn boring and there is in my mindset initially. I just roughly go through and finally I found the written content is knowledgeable until couple a months ago, they published the “Adsense Program” which I never heard before. Perhaps I seldom surf the net. Thus, I told my wife regarding the program. But she laughs at me and asks me better concentrate on my professional survey. The following months, appeal again the “Adsense Program” in the magazine. I quietly surf the website and check what is the powerful of this program. Its sounds interesting when the website mention by using blog, you can generate passive income. In my mind, there is no harm to try and it free.

The http://ilmunidham.blogspot.com is created mainly want to venture in internet world which I believe it is a powerful leverage that I need to fully utilize. I start post article but with good content and realize that it is fun. Perhaps I just a beginner and still can not see the handsome income from Google.

For those who enjoy blog and want to share information and knowledge, there is a free tip to generate income from one of my friend from UK, Michael Cheney.

Always remember these 4 items as your compass

1. Content
· Write high quality article and do not copy article from others people. You can share your view in same article but don’t copy and paste. Good content will reflect the Google Ads.

2. Keywords
· Do not simply post a keyword. Choose a high-paid keyword which will relate the Google Ad. You can use Adword program in Google to search for Best Keyword.

3. Your ads
· Let google to assist you.

4. Traffic
· Promotion. You need to promote your blog. There are many methods to promote. One of the simple way is before you invite people to your website or blog. Please visit their website or blog and comment the blog if there is a good quality article. Hopefully, they will visit you in one day. The most you visit, the more visitor will come to you

I wish above simple basic will guide you to AdSense success


*Perhaps you just want to have fun which blog but why don’t let Google generate some income to you when you post a good article. If you don’t need the money, please kindly donate to clarity society which needs the fund to run their organization. Let us serve to people who need our service. God will bless you.


Thank you for read my article.

Follow me-Walk



I wake up early in the morning on this Sunday before 6 am because I feel sorry if I don’t write this article to one of the blogger’s friend, Carol. Even through I just meet you by net but I feel happy if this information can assist you in your lever problem.

According to New Penguin English Dictionary, liver is define as a large vascular glandular organ of vertebrates that secrets bile and causes changes in the blood, e.g. by converting blood sugar into glycogen.

Damage of liver is a normal disease especially in Asian and perhaps in this world because of daily polluted food we take and it happens to my uncles also. Nowadays, farmers are using all sorts of chemicals (herbicide and pesticide) to boost the product and the victim is us if we do not know how to handle of cleaning this toxic. We can’t see this toxic by naked eye and we are happy to see this fruit in fresh condition without any attach from insect. In fact the fruit is sprayed with chemical to avoid the pest attach. Good for fruit but no to human. Thus, our body is full of toxic which we are no alert. There are many methods to clean up from our body but involve of money.

Couple days ago, I read an article regarding walk to prolong our life in a paper. It is a part of basic exercise which people intend to forgive the benefit of walking. People are buying thousand of dollar tools for exercise but still end with disease. I noticed that most of the people do not like to walk and refer use a vehicle to move around which is bad to our health. Look at our grandfather generation, they are healthy even until senior age because they walk and work. No computer, no TV and their life are simple.

Here I would like to code one of my former foremen when I was a planter. I used to call him, Veerasamy and this year he should be 74 years old. He born on year 1930++ but he still fit to work. No, I should say he like to work because by working he can walk around and make his time fully occupy. I respect this senior Indian foreman. He is a simple and likes to share his view if you need him. He likes to walk and you hardly can see him sit at the house. He used to joke with me and say. “Tuan, our body similar to this tractor engine. If you don’t start regularly and subsequently it will condemn by itself.” I just laugh at that moment. But today I realize Veerasamy is correct. We need to look after our body before we regret.

In Chinese massage treatment; they claimed that our foot has inter-connected with all the organs in our body. Yoga practice also involved of our foot and doctor always encourage us to walk. Hence, I believe the creator is fair to us where He provide us 2 legs and He wants his follower to walk. Come, Carol. Follow me and WALK.

Powerful Management Skill-20/80 concept

There was end of the year 2003 where I just promoted as senior assistant manager and HQ had made a cross changes between the managers among the operating centers. He was posted to Kerling estate as Acting Manager and I still can remember the first day, he had emphasized on 20/80 concept to all the staff because he noticed that this operating centre was not well managed. But none of us understood what message he wanted to channel to us. Everybody just knotted their head and pretend understood including me.

What is 20/80 concept? Basically, the concept is simple and I used 2 easy examples as below:-

1. Use 20% our time to gain 80% information (just like all the internet users use internet to look for information without going out)

2. Use 20% effort to gain 80% result or objective.

Talk is easy but how to apply to our management environment? There was my big question mark appeal in my mind when I was a planter. If you are planter or work in huge company, I think you will face the decision making problem. Everybody will consult with you for decision. Planter is the worst. Even the worker family problem you need to solve also. We don’t have a personal time for our self unless you take the vacation and forget the estate life. But you still can’t escape, once you back to estate. Similar problem will appear. Everybody is depending on you. There why people used to say planter is the king of estate.

Ok. Let me continue what is 20/80 concept. I found the answer from Chinese paper on yesterday 15 November 2006. The article emphasize why a lot of top management fail in their management team and these group do not realize that workers are main asset to hit the objective (profit). Here they related the 20% is the manager or leader and the others 80% is workers. So, you are the 20% and are the vital part in your company. But how are you going to tackle your workers? Buy them lunch?

The article had advised the management to avoid by making decision by said there 2 phases
1. ‘Yes’ or ‘No’,
2. ‘Right’ or ‘Wrong’.

This is not a primary school where you can’t say you are right or you are wrong. Thus, as a responsible leader, you need to ensure you have good reason to support your decision before people queering you.


Below is my case study on handling decision.

Handling problematic worker

Ø Most of the oil palm or rubber plantations are facing labor shortage and recruitment from foreign country is normal to a planter. Similar to me when I was in Kerling Estate, I was short of rubber tapper during that period and HQ had sent a batch of foreign Indian workers to my operating centre. I need to train them before they were able to tap and this was a normal producer in my management team. Wages will be low compare with tapper. However, this batch of foreign Indian was cheated by their agent because the agent claimed that they will earn high income when in Malaysia. The worst part was the agent said that they will be working in air-condition factory and when they reach at estate, they just realized they are cheated. We were pity of them.
Ø Most of them do not want to work at estate environment but I as a leader I need to change their mindset of estate environment. I need to make fast decision to keep them. For them money is important because they spent plenty of money to come over and their family need money too. I went down to the ground and met this batch of workers and told them if they were willing to earn high income. I can provide them with a condition. Learn how to tap the rubber tree where the price was increasing everyday and I foresee it was an opportunity for them to earn good income in estate. Finally, they listened to me and started learning the skill of tapping. Before I left the estate, they were well paid with they effort and my farewell party also was organized by them.


This is a win-win situation for both parties. I was respected by the estate workers and this 20/80 concept should be shared among the young planter. Even through I had left the plantation, I think I still can contribute my knowledge and share with your all.
