National Automative Police (NAP) VS Fuel Price Hike up

This is the most talk topics all over Malaysia at the moment. I dont want to argue anything because there will be a pro and contra regarding this issue and this will sure effects the Malaysia economy enviroment. But one thing i want to highlight here is each times when the goverment announce the new price for fuel there will always be a comparison table of all ASEAN countries on all media. At the end of the price hikeup announcement show, this is the favourite quotes use by media to show that our's is still one of the cheapest in the region. The quote will similar like this in BM " Walaubagaimana pun, rakyat Malaysia masih menikmati harga terendah bagi seliter petrol berbanding negara-negara ASEAN yang lain".

For me this is very unfair statement, even media try to compare our fuel price with England what a joke. Please do some math on the salary per expenses from their country.

Now, the NAP is out and why not since i dont know when they dont compare our car price with Thailand or Indo car price. Its much fair if gov try to compare with Thai alone as they are also country who had their Automotive industry because as we all know now Thailand has become Detroit for Asia. Please think about it, why Honda Jazz in Malaysia is RM100k but in Thailand around RM70K. Why we can't have a cheapar car... uhhhhhh even CKD model in Malaysia is not much diff with imported car.

Syed or Sayid or Sayyid or Sayed

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

(Redirected from Syed)

Jump to: navigation, search

Sayyid (Arabic: سيد also rendered as syed, seyyed, sayyed, saiyed, or sayeed) is an honorific title often given to claimed descendants of the Prophet Muhammad through his grandsons, Husayn and Hasan, the sons of his daughter Fatima Zahra and his son-in-law Ali ibn Abi Talib (who was Muhammad's younger cousin and had been raised in his household).

Some Muslims also use the term sayyid for the descendants of Abu Talib, uncle of Muhammad, by his other sons: Jafar, Aqeel and Talib.

The term should not be confused with the popular name "Sa'id" or "Saeed", which is an Arabic and Persian word meaning "happy."

The word means literally "master"; the closest English equivalent would be Sir or Lord. In the Arab worldIraq, the word is still used as a substitute for Mister, as in sayyid\sayed John Smith. The same concept is expressed by the word sidi (from Arabic word 'sayyidi') in the western dialects of Arabic. itself, with the exception of

Alevis use Sayed as an honorific before the names of their saints.

Other Arabic honorific terms include sheikh and sharif. The line of Hassani sayyeds who ruled Mecca and Medina and now rule in Jordan, the Hashemites, bore the title Sharif.

Sayyids often include the following titles in their names to indicate the figure from whom they trace their descent. If they are descended from more than one notable ancestor or Shi'a Imam, they will use the title of the ancestor from whom they are most directly descended.

Names are given as spelled, in the Arabic alphabet; the al, or the, does not vary, no matter what follows it. Titles are given as prounounced; here, the "al" varies according to the following sound.

An i, wi, or vi ending could perhaps be translated by the English suffixes ite or ian. The suffix transforms a personal name, or a place name, into the name of a group of people connected by lineage or place of birth. Hence Ahmad al-Hashimi could be translated as Ahmad of the lineage of Hassan and Ahmad al-Harrani as Ahmad from the city of Harran. For further explanation, see Arabic names.

Malaysian phone hacker arrested for stealing credit-card information from Krung Thai Bank

Source: The Nation Post

---

The Department of Special Investigation arrested a Malaysian man yesterday for allegedly stealing credit-card information from Krung Thai Bank by using telephone wiretaps to hack into its database. Director-general Sombat Amornwiwat said Lee Kian Sin had caused more than Bt100 million in damage to the bank, which had kept the information theft a secret to avoid causing panic among its cardholders. Sombat did not say how the hacking or phone bugging had been carried out but warned that people using KTC cards in the region south of Hat Yai district in Songkhla were at risk of having had their credit-card details stolen. Sombat said bank customers who regularly ran up card balances of more than Bt100,000 were prime targets of the Malaysian suspect, who, he said, was part of a racket operating in Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore. The ring included store clerks who took down shoppers’ credit-card numbers and others who then sold items obtained through payments charged to an unsuspecting shopper’s credit card.

Ternyata Cinta

by: Padi

Ingin sungguh aku bicara
Satu kali saja
Sebagai ungkapan kata...
Perasaanku padamu
Telah cukup lama kudiam...
Didalam keheningan ini
Kebekuan dibibirku
Tak berdayanya tubuhku

Dan ternyata cinta...
Yang menguatkan aku
Dan ternyata cinta...

Kau yang sungguh selalu setia
Menemani kesepianku
Menjaga lelap tidurku
Membasuhku setulusnya
Merekahnya fajar hatiku
Menghangatku luruhku
Dan resapkan keharuman
Engkau yang mencintaiku

Dan ternyata cinta...
Yang menguatkan aku
Dan ternyata cinta...
Tulus mendekap jiwaku

Naluri Lelaki

By: Samsons

aku adalah lelaki
yang tak pernah lelah
mencari wanita
aku adalah lelaki
yang selalu gundah
menunggu wanitaku

oh aku adalah lelaki
yang pantang menyerah
memikat wanita
aku adalah lelaki
yang selalu ingin
dibuai wanitaku

tolong dekati aku
tolong hampiri aku
tolong jamahi aku
agar aku bijaksana
agar aku bahagia
agar aku merasakan cinta

naluriku sebagai lelaki
membuatku menginginkan
berjuta wanita di sisiku
naluriku sebagai lelaki
membuatku merindukan
pujaan dari wanita

p/s: i heard this song over ch8 on astro last nite, quite nice song + lyrics

Chat from Prompt

--------------------------------------------------------
another helpful hint : Chatting from Command Prompt
--------------------------------------------------------
if you want a private chat with a friend or client on you Network, you don't need to download any fancy program! All you need is your friends IP address and Command Prompt.
Firstly, open Notepad and copy paste code below:

@echo off
:A Cls
echo MESSENGER
set /p n=User:
set /p m=Message:
net send %n% %m%
Pause
Goto A


Now save this as "Messenger.bat". Open the .bat file and in Command Prompt you should see:

MESSENGER User:
After "User" type the IP address of the computer you want to contact. After this, you should see this:

Message:

Now type in the message you wish to send. Before you press "Enter" it should look like this:

MESSENGER
User: 56.108.104.107
Message: Hi

Now all you need to do is press "Enter", and start chatting!
