The last story of Pak Pandir

Another Pak Pandir story to be shared with ..

      Pak Pandir liked to eat bananas so much. He always ate the ripe bananas.One day, Mak Andih grilled some unripe bananas.Pak Pandir liked the grill bananas so much.Every single day, he asked his devoted wife to grill some bananas for him.Since he liked them so much, Pak Pandir hid them at the house attic.

   One day, while Mak Andih was away, Pak Pandir took some unripe bananas from the attic. He was starving.He craved for the grill bananas so much.So Pak Pandir went to the kitchen planning to grill the unripe bananas himself.Unfortunately,he did not even know how to start a fire and he did not know that a fire or a burning charcoal is needed to grill them.Pak Pandir looked around and saw the black ash in the stove."Aaa! This is what Andih used to grill the delicious bananas.Then Pak Pandir put the unripe bananas in the ash.Once they were black, Pak Pandir thought that it was done so Pak Pandir took one and ate it.It tasted different but since Pak Pandir was a lame dog he ate it greedily.Finally he gobbled up the whole bunch!

   Soon after, Pak Pandir was really full.He could neither walked nor got up.Suddenly, he got a terrible stomach ache.He could not bear with it and ran out of his house to do his business.While he was running, he stumbled over a rock and fell onto a jar of sticky fluid.He tried to get up but he could not make it since it was the sap from a tree that Mak Andih used to trap the birds which ate their crops.Hours later Pak Pandih was covered with hundreds of birds.As he was indeed an unlucky man, the birds flew away bringing Pak Pandir with them.Until today, there was no news about Pak Pandir.

< The End>

p.s.Share with me if you know other stories of Pak Pandir.

Pak Pandir and the guests.

    When Mak Andih found out that the baby was dead she was so angry.However, nothing could be done.Since she had already bought the things, she decided to continue with her plan, having the feast as to pray for her late child.

  Then Mak Andih asked Pak Pandir to bury their child in the jungle. Pak Pandir put the dead body in a mengkuang mat and put it on his shoulder. Since he did not wrap the body neatly, while he was walking to the jungle, he dropped his child dead body.After arriving at a suitable place, Pak Pandir dug a hole and buried the empty mat.On his way back home, he found his dead child and took it home because he thought that it was a doll and he wanted to give it to his wife.Mak Andih did not say anything when she saw the dead body since she knew who Pak Pandir was.However she realised that Pak Pandir loved her so much and always wanted to make her happy.Then Mak Andih buried her dead child herself.

   As for the feast, Mak Andih had to ask Pak Pandir to invite the guests because she had to cook the food.Since it was a feast for their child death, Mak Andih wanted Pak Imam and Pak Lebai to recite the prayer.Pak Pandir asked Mak Andih how they looked like.Mak Andih said Pak Lebai had a beard and he always chewed on something as for Pak Imam, he was a very big man with a loud voice.Pak Pandir nodded his head without saying anything.

    Soon after, Pak Pandir saw 'Pak Lebai'chewing on grass in the field.He was pretty sure that was Pak Lebai because of the beard.Then Pak Pandir came towards 'Pak lebai' and invited him to recite the prayer.'Pak Lebai' said nothing just 'bekkkkkkkk!  bekkkkkkk!' Pak Pandir was so happy because he thought that 'Pak Lebai' wanted 'nasi lembek ( soft rice) for the feast."Mak Andih is a good cook.I will ask her to cook nasi lembek for you.Thank you,Pak Lebai," said Pak Pandir politely.Then he continued his journey to invite Pak Imam.

   It was almost dark so Pak Pandir walked faster.Not long after that Pak Pandir saw a very big house.He was already in the jungle. He knocked on the door then a very big 'Pak Imam' opened the door.He was so big with fierce-looking eyes.His voice was deafening!"This must be Pak Imam"Pak Pandir talked to himself.Humbly he invited 'Pak Imam' to recite the prayer." Ha ha ha.....but I want lots of food or else I eat you!" said 'Pak Imam'.Thinking that 'Pak Imam' was starving, Pak Pandir agreed to it. Then Pak Pandir went home.

   Happily, Pak Pandir told Mak Andih that both important guests would come.Mak Andih was happy since she thought that Pak Pandir had invited other villagers as well.Then, when night came, while Mak Andih was wondering why no one came for the feast, she heard a boisterous laugh.Hearing that laugh, Pak Pandir was so happy.Without hesitation, he opened the door and welcomed the guest, 'Pak Imam'.Mak Andih was as frightened as Macbeth before the ghost of Banquo because she knew that, that 'Pak Imam' could gobble her up!She was so sad for having a husband as brainless as a chimpanzee.The 'Pak Imam'was actually a fierce giant!

   Mak Andih told Pak Pandir that they were in a big trouble but nothing could be done except for being good hosts for the guests.The giant brought the whole family, his wife and his son.He asked pak Pandir to feed his son.Pak Pandir stuffed lots of food into the baby giant's mouth.Unfortunately, the baby could not breathe and died.Mak Andih knew that they had to flee so she took a big jar and ran with Pak Pandir to the river bank.They jumped into the jar and waded to cross. Luckily both were safe.Knowing that their baby was dead, the giant and his wife were so angry.They took another big jar and tried to cross the river.Unfortunately, they were too heavy so the jar was broken.The giants could not swim so both drown.Mak Andih was so relieved and Pak Pandir as stupid as a donkey laughed at wet Mak Andih.

Pak Pandir and the hot water

     Teacher! I want more folk tales!!!! Okay, now I tell you another folk tale.This is a Malay folk tale.I hope you like it.

    Once upon a time there was a man named Pak Pandir.Pak Pandir was a dumb.However Pak Pandir had a clever wife called Mak Andih.One day, Mak Andih decided to have a feast like thanksgiving since they were blessed with a child.So Mak Andih had to buy things from the nearby village.Then Mak Andih asked Pak Pandir to look after their child.She asked Pak Pandir to bathe him.She told him that he had to boil some water then mix the hot water with the cold to bathe the baby.Pak Pandir just nodded his head.

    While Mak Andih was away, Pak Pandir remembered that he had to bathe his child.Then Pak Pandir boiled some water.After it was boiled, Pak Pandir poured the water into a big basin. He forgot that he had to mix the hot boiling water with the cold one.Happily, he put his baby into the hot water!The baby cried in pain but Pak Pandir thought that the baby liked the bathing so much so without hesitation, he poured more hot water onto the baby.Now, can you guess what happened?

Wearing helmet for prayer

    Law + rule = must be followed. I am one of those who always think that we must always obey the rules.Whereas my husband always thinks the opposite.So we always argue about it.

   One day, in 1994,while I was studying in KL, my husband asked me to get ready to go to the night market.The night market was just a walking distance but we seldom walk there.It was 6.50 p.m. so I told my husband that I wanted to pray first.I took my ablution then I took the prayer mat.Then I saw a helmet on the table.I said to my husband that I wanted to wear the helmet to the night market even though it was only a walking distance.My husband scolded me and said he did not want to wear any.It was so near so he was sure that no policeman on duty.I insisted on wearing the helmet.I stood on the praying mat to start the pray.I could hear my husband babbling.

   Suddenly, I heard a loud laughter.My husband laughed and laughed.I thought he saw something funny.I tried to focus on my maghrib prayer.Then my husband shouted my name and pointed to my head.My goodness!I was wearing a helmet instead of the telekung ( the praying outfit)!It was so funny and I could not stop myself laughing.This memory still tickle me until today.However I still stick to my principle that law + rule must be obeyed.

Can you guess what happened?

    Another folk tale that I can still remember until today is about a man and his wife.They led a simple life since they were poor.However, the wife was so greedy and she never satisfied with what she had.So she forced her husband to give her gold.

   Feeling sad, the husband sat outside the house.He was asked to stay outside until he could give her gold.Suddenly, while the husband was thinking about the ways to get the gold, he saw a big white elephant flying from the sky and landed in his backyard.Then the elephant fed on the grass there.The elephant was gigantic.The husband hid beside a tree and watched the elephant eating the grass.

   When it was dawn, the elephant flew back to the sky.It happened for two days and without fail the husband hid and watched the large unusual animal.Then, the husband decided to follow the elephant to its home since the husband  still could not bring gold for his wife and he was heart-broken.So he quickly  held on to the elephant's tail before it flew back like before.

   After some time, the husband arrived at a very beautiful place that he believed was a heaven.There were many big beautiful flowers and lots of big juicy fruits.He sat down and ate a mango.It was so big so he could not finish it.He decided to bring the mango home for his wife.

   When the time came, the husband held onto the elephant's tail again and flew back to his backyard.Seeing a big half-eaten  fruit brought by the husband, the greedy wife became impatient.She forced her husband to tell the secret.The husband had no choice but to tell.Then that night itself, when the elephant started to flew back to its place, the wife forced the husband to hold on to its tail whereas she herself grabbed on her husband's legs.

  On the way to the elephant's home, the wife became more greedy and impatient.She asked lots of questions to her husband.She even asked him to tell how big the mango was.The husband said that the mango was bigger than the well behind their hut.The wife did not believe his word and asked the husband to show how big it was with his hand.Feeling annoyed, the husband showed how big the mango was using his hands and because of that, he was actually letting go of the elephant's tail So can you guess what happened?

Taro and the turtle

   Today, my students asked me to tell a folk tale. Since I was 7, I like to read folk tales so there is a lot in my mind.So I told them about a man named Taro who was  a fisherman.  He lived with his old mother in a small hut nearby the sea.Everyday Taro would go to the sea to catch fish.One day, while he was fishing, he saw a big turtle trapped in his net. Quickly he cut the net and let the turtle back to the sea.From that day onwards, they became friends.

  Not long after that, the turtle invited Taro to see her house. Taro agreed as the turtle said that he could breathe under water with her magic.So Taro followed the turtle.Then they arrived at a very beautiful place with a big palace made of pearls and seaweed.To his astonishment, the turtle transformed into a very beautiful mermaid who was the princess,the daughter of the King of the Sea.Taro was so happy so he decided to stay with the princess for a day.

  The princess and the servants treated Taro kindly. He was served with delicious seaweed and other mouth-watering food that could only be found underwater.Every day, there were beautiful mermaids singing and dancing for him.After some time, Taro missed his mother so much.He was so worried since his mother was so old and could not find food herself.So,Taro told the princess about his decision to go home.

  The princess tried to make Taro forget his mother.She gave him lots of treasure, gold and pearls but yet Taro could not forget his mother. So the princess got no choice but to let him go with one condition.He must accept a gold box that only could be opened once he was already in his hut.Without thinking Taro agreed.Then the princess transformed into a turtle again and brought Taro to the surface.She left Taro at the beach.The princess agreed to see Taro again if he followed the condition.

  Once Taro was alone, he started thinking about the golden box.He thought that if the box itself was made of gold, the content must be more precious.Perhaps diamond.He could not curb his curiosity so he opened the box.In a blink of eyes, thick smoke coming out of the box.Then it transformed into a big genie.The genie scolded Taro for being greedy and not being trustworthy.Suddenly, Taro changed into a very ugly old man.He was actually spending hundreds of years in the sea palace.So slowly he fell onto the ground and died.

  It was so funny seeing my students ( some of them) listening to the story with half-opened mouth.They do like folk tale so maybe once a while I will tell more since some of them do not know Pak Pandir, a very popular ( to older generations like me maybe) malay folk tale.By knowing more folk tales I hope that my students will not forget their roots.

Someone was watching us!

     Malaysians like ghost story.Opps!Maybe Malays like ghost story.So, I would like to share my experience about ghost which happened 11 years ago.11 years ago I was really workaholic.I did my work in school but after 9 p.m. I used to come to school to do other work.I marked my students books, prepared for the next lesson etc.Since my house is(it is, until now) just opposite the school,I always spent hours at night at the school accompanied by my two daughters.

  One day, as usual, after dinner my daughters and I went to the school. I marked my students books whereas my eldest daughter did her homework.My youngest was 3 so she just played around.Suddenly, while I was busy marking the books, the computer was on.I thought someone was there but when I checked ( I was doing my work in the same room) there was no one.Then I decided to switch it off.To my astonishment, I found out that the electricity was not on at all!I don't know how to explain my feelings.I was scared but at the same time I thought maybe my daughter played with it.Then I continued my work.

   Ten minutes later, the phone rang.I picked up the phone but I could only hear the hissing sound like the wind blowing.Feeling frightened I hung up the phone and started to pack up my things.I had to leave.Then the phone rang again. I asked my daughter to pull the connection wire out but yet it was still ringing.I knew that it was not someone pulling my legs but perhaps 'someone' was monkeying about with my feelings!I could not take it anymore!So, I took all my things and went out.

  When I was picking out the key to lock the door, my youngest daughter said that she wanted to pee.I got no choice but to enter the room again.There was a toilet in the room.I sent my daughter in and I waited nervously at the door.Since she was too young I did not close the door. Just opposite the toilet was a mirror.I turned to the mirror and I saw...My goodness!I could not believe my eyes!It was there in the mirror!A white creature without face that looked exactly like a 'pocong'( a ghost ) was just behind me!I could see its image in the mirror.I looked back but I did not see anything.My daughter was still inside doing her business.Then I looked at the mirror again and it still standing there.It was not so white but quite dirty as if the colour was fading.I asked my daughter to be hurry then without wasting any time or looking behind again, we went home.

  I could feel as if someone was watching us. Luckily the guard was at the gate and he watched us while we were walking home.Once home, I looked at the clock and it was 12.12 a.m!The next day, I could not get up.I had a terrible fever for a week.I was indeed so scared but I did not tell anyone until two months later when the guard said that he,himself saw the same 'someone'at the same place around the same hour!It sounds ridiculous but it really happened to me.I hope that the same 12.12 a.m. incidence will never happen again.Do you believe me?

Single but not available

    Berita pelajar meninggal dunia akibat keguguran, benar-benar membuatku sedih. Bagai bunga sedang kembang tiba-tiba gugur ditiup bayu.Siapakah yang harus dipertanggung jawabkan?Siapakah yang harus dipersalahkan.Dulu orang kata anak-anak di bandar besar yang mudah hanyut digoda syaitan.Takkan mungkin anak suci pantai timur apatah lagi serambi Mekah akan membuat olah. Tetapi kini apa yang berlaku?

   "Dia seorang yang pendiam, baik dan rajin solat berjemaah.Dia juga tiada masalah disiplin di sekolah"kata guru yang mengajar.Andai anak baik juga tergelincir,bagaimana dengan anak liar?Adakah menggugurkan anak itu perkara remeh terlalu mudah seperti mengunyah sekeping kuih?Ayuhai...sedih di hati ku cuba fahami sendiri.

   Di mana-mana dengan mudah ku lihat anak-anak (kerana ramai yang masih belum cukup dewasa)berdua bermesra tanpa menghirau orang sekeliling tanpa segan tanpa silu.Apabila ditegur menjawab dengan megah.Tak sedarkah makan minum duit belanja masih diberi oleh mak ayah?Setakat isytihar di Facebook ,'single but not available' atau 'single but taken' boleh lagi ditoleransi tetapi jika sanggup diusung ke hulu ke hilir tidakkah terdetik rasa benci?

   Muda hanya sekali tetapi sekali terpesong mengikut darah muda, meski pun hanya sekali, maka musnahlah masa depan dan tiada lagi yang patut dibanggakan.Alangkah mengerikan juga menyedihkan andai suatu hari nanti dunia dipenuhi anak luar nikah.Benar, mereka tidak bersalah tetapi mereka berhak untuk lahir sebagai anak yang sah.Oleh itu, jagalah batas pergaulan.Bercinta boleh tetapi agama jangan dilupa bak kata orang, adat dikelek agama dijunjung.Tetapi aku tertanya-tanya sndiri..masih ada lagikah anak bangsaku yang benar-benar Melayu?

Let's have a break!

And I hate that!!!

   A man needs a woman.A woman needs a man. It is a fact. In a relationship ( of course marriage) a man is the one who should be the breadwinner.(or the sole breadwinner).So if the wife does work, it is a bonus as to help the husband who is so-called the sole breadwinner.But what happen today, a woman is the sole breadwinner.There are many cases show that the husbands just stay at home doing nothing and do not willing to lend their hands in the chores.For the pensioners it is different since they still have income so they are not considered as irresponsible.

  I believe that a wife is not that mean as to label her spouse an irresponsible person if the husband is a sensible person.Helping doing the chores means a lot to an exhausted sole breadwinner wife.A wife will understand if the husband cannot find a job due to unavoided reasons.But unfortunately most husbands today ( that I know )are so choosy as if they are the best so they must get the best job with the best pay eventhough the fact is they are the worst.When a man who is so-called a husband cum a sole breawinner has no pride, the woman will be the man, the father and the husband eventhough she is still a woman, a mother and a wife.So,for a long time, in present and future, a woman has to suffer with a deep wound inside her heart.As for the family, everything goes topsy-turvy!And I hate that!!!

The satan inside my house.

    Where did you put the money?My daughter asked me when I told her that I lost my money again.This is actually the 8th time already within 3 months.Normally I lost RM50 note or RM10 note each time I noticed that my money was lost.There are only my two daughters and I in the family.I don't think that my daughters stole the money because they also lost theirs.I know the amount is small whether RM50 or RM10 but I cannot take it anymore.I really curious to know who the culprit is.Last week, I put my RM1000 in a sealed envelope.Then I hid it in a locked drawer.I left the key at school in my desk.To my astonishment,on Wednesday, when I checked, the money inside the sealed envelope locked in the drawer was only RM950!I lost RM50 again!I took the key back from school on that Wednesday itself so I could not believe my eyes.

  Still wondering ,today I went to my mom's house.I did not tell anyone including my parents about the money been stolen. Then our neighbours came to visit my mom who was not feeling well. She had the same experience about the stolen money.She is quite an old lady and still believe in superstituous so she met a shaman.The shaman told her that the money was stolen by 'a black mysterious animal / insect'which is actually the satan.This satan has stolen money from the residents of my neighbourhood since March.We,my parents and I did not believe in superstituous.However I remember last week at 12.05 a.m. I tried to get rid of a big black fly which I found quite unusual with its big shiny eyes.It was at the living room and still there eventhough I use insecticides!

   My neighbour said that the shaman suggested to use needle and thread in order to get rid of the satan in the shape of the black animal / insect.I know this sounds ridiculous but I got no other alternatives and I don't want to lose my money anymore.So tonight after writing this post, I will put a needle and thread in between my money.I want to laugh since it sounds funny but on the other hand I feel scared imagining that I might come across the satan inside my house!

I am not that lucky...

      At this moment,I am sitting at the stadium with my students, the band girls,practising the songs for the coming event. The students reminded me of my school life when I was their age. My friends and I spent most our time together revising and discussing life. 13 May 1986, when I was in Form 5, my friends and I talked about our future, the career and family. One of my best friends told us that she wanted to be a full time housewife. She's a bright student so we regarded her dream to be a full time housewife was just a dream.Most of us, wanted to be a doctor,( the most famous) lawyer, businessman and even singer.So being a full time housewife is something without future.

     Then, yesterday, when I went shopping with my eldest daughter, I met my long lost best friend who wanted to be a full time housewife.We talked a lot about our school and present life. She told me that she had achieved her dream to be a full time housewife.I did not know that she really meant it.However, I am happy for her since she is now a happy full time housewife and blessed with 3 sweet daughters and a handsome son.Whereas I am not that lucky....(p.s She looks much younger than me !)

Thank you for the present, Mahesan!

   Once, I had a pet tortoise.I named him Kenit which means petite because of his size.When I furthered my studies, I left him with my mom.However, only after two months, he died.I was so sad because I love him so much and I tried to get one like him.Unfortunately until today, I am still searching.The ones sold in the pet shop are too different since they are mostly quite aggresive while my Kenit was so gentle and calm.

   Then on the 16 May 2010, the Teacher's Day, I received a lot of presents. My daughters helped me to unwrap them.Most of the presents were jewelleries and picture frames.(Not to mentioned flowers and apples)Suddenly  my eyes laid on something so amazing!Wow!That was totally awesome!I love it so much!I took it up and put it on my palm.It was given by one of my KRK students.He chose the present as if he knew that I miss my Kenit so much.I named this wonderful little creature Kenit too as a remembrance of my late Kenit.I know that it is quite difficult for me to get another real Kenit so this present means so much to me. I hope the new Kenit can be my little darling forever like a music box given by another student on Teacher's Day 10 years ago.Oh yes, my new Kenit is like my two daughters and I without the father.However, last week my nephew dropped my new Kenit and one of her daughters lost her head.It's as if the little tortoise is hiding her head and it is like my youngest daughter who happens to be a very shy person.Whatever it is, thank you Mahesan for this wonderful Teacher's Day present.

May my baby rest in peace...

My beloved Dastan and his adopted mother,Ibu.

    Today, as usual, I went out to see my beloved cats.(My cats stay outside the house ).I called their names one by one. Devotedly, they came to me and I patted them lovingly. Seeing their faces is like a remedy to me so without fail I pat and hug them first thing in the morning.While patting their heads gently I noticed that Ibu was not around. I combed the backyard then I found Ibu sitting with the baby, Dastan.I called his name but there was no response. I touched him and to my astonishment he is dead!I was so sad since he was the cutest among them all.He was the youngest and most adorable. I did not know what he was suffering from  that led to his death because yesterday he was still ok.He was like my own baby so I was as sad as doom.I hope I will get more babies as cute as my late Dastan since Winda is now expecting.I hope my little Dastan may rest in peace...

 

I hope so

    Oh my God!Again?I heard that when she weighed her weight. She does not look that fat eventhough she is obese.She's obsessed to be thin so regardless of the mouth-watering food I prepare, she chooses to eat none.

    Living in a luxurious country like Malaysia, lots of food to choose every day.Malay, Chinese, Indian, Western, Japanese, Italian bla bla bla  just name it and you get it.So the problem of getting obese is increasing.Then we can see on tv, via the internet, radio, newspaper etc the products that offer help to be thin.In the newspapers we can see a big, chubby, flabby lady ( eventhough looks like editted) becomes so thin with ideal figure like a model. A woman in baju kurung and tudung changes into someone still wearing tudung but no more baju kurung.Instead wearing tight and transparent kebaya and poses confidently.

   Today, I checked my weight, Oh my God!I am in the same boat!Not that flabby but I am obese.I want to get my figure back. I want to wear my favourite clothes again.So today, I took a product and I hope it can help me to be slim as slim as the shaker that I used.Sorry, for feeling funny seeing those who obsessed to be thin before.However, I am sure that I am still me without tight or transparent kebaya.I hope so...

Hempedu atau madu

   Semalam ku baca di akhbar tentang seorang pemuda membunuh diri kerana cinta. Betapa ceteknya manusia berfikir untuk mati hanya kerana kecewa cinta.Seolah-olah cinta lebih berkuasa dari tuhan, lebih penting dari agama.Semalam juga aku menonton sebuah filem barat tentang manusia membunuh diri.Antara dialog yang ku ingat, manusia yang mati membunuh diri takkan diampunkan oleh tuhan walau apa pun kepercayaan atau agama manusia berkenaan kerana nyawa bukanlah hak milik mutlak seorang manusia. Nyawa hanyalah pinjaman yang harus dijaga.Nyawa adalah hak tuhan.

   Oleh kerana berkuasanya cinta, maka selalu ku ingatkan pada anak-anak muridku agar jangan tersalah jatuh cinta. Ramai yang tertawa bila ku katakan cinta itu buta.Ramai juga yang berkata "Ah,takkan kita senang-senang nak jatuh cinta?Kita nak cari yang baik, yang alim, yang kaya dan tentunya yang kacak.Kita juga tak nak jatuh cinta dengan orang merokok"Itu jawapan biasa yang ku terima.Ah!Anak-anak!Kau masih belum tahu putar belit dunia. Sekali kau jatuh cinta, hempedu kau rasa madu. Rupa tak seberapa pun kau rasa setampan Justin Bieber. Poket kosong pun tak apa, kerana kau sangup berkorban jiwa raga.Akhirnya kau terperangkap oleh indahnya cinta.

   Ada juga ku dengar anak-anak gadis baru tumbuh belum cukup wangi sanggup berkelahi kerana berebut cinta seorang lelaki.Biasanya lelaki pujaan adalah lelaki rebutan, tampan, bergaya, mungkin kaya walau prestasi akademi tidak seberapa.Cinta monyet tidak mengapa kerana singgah sebentar bak embun di pagi hari.Timbul mentari embun pasti pergi. Tetapi ku bimbang cinta singgah setengah mati maka butalah mata, hilanglah kewarasan demi mempertahankan cinta idaman.Andai sungguh sang jejaka ikhlas, selamatlah anakku cinta berbalas. Tetapi ku bimbang sang jejaka si petualang, menjaja cinta dengan semua maka kecewa dan merana jadi teman setia.Andai pertimbangan dan iman terlalu cetek, ku bimbang membunuh diri jalan diambil konon tidak mampu hidup tanpa cinta.

   Oleh itu anak-anakku, berhati-hatilah menerima dan memberi cinta.Semoga hidupmu diberkati sentiasa, ke anak cucu bahagia bersama.

Semasa di Kolej, beliau merupakan seorang pelajar yang tekun dan bersungguh-sungguh dalam pelajaran, aktif dalam sukan ragbi dan sentiasa mengambil berat tentang kebajikan pelajar-pelajar lain.

Pada tahun 1953, beliau telah dianugerahkan Ijazah Doktor Perubatan (M.B.B.S) dari University of Malaya. Berbekalkan kelulusan berkenaan, Dr. Mahathir telah memulakan perkhidmatannya dalam kerajaan dengan menjadi doktor pelatih di Hospital Besar Pulau Pinang. Pada tahun 1954, Dr. Mahathir telah dilantik sebagai Pegawai Perubatan di Hospital Besar Alor Setar bagi memenuhi kontrak biasiswanya. Beliau juga telah memberikan khidmat perubatan di Langkawi, Jitra dan Perlis.

Perkenalan dengan seorang gadis dari Selangor bernama Siti Hasmah Mohd Ali (kini Tun Dr. Siti Hasmah) yang mengikuti bidang pengajian yang sama di King Edward VII Collage of Medicene berlanjutan sehingga mereka menamatkan pengajian masing-masing. Hubungan erat yang terjalin semasa di Singapura telah diakrabkan lagi setelah kedua-duanya diijabkabulkan sebagai suami isteri pada Ogos 1956. Pasangan bahagia ini telah dikurniakan tujuh orang cahayamata iaitu Marina (kini Datin Paduka Marina), Mirzan, Melinda, Mokhzani (kini Datuk Mohzani), Mukriz ( kini Datuk Mukriz), Maizura dan Mazhar.

Pada tahun 1957, setelah tamat kontraknya dengan kerajaan, Dr. Mahathir dengan bantuan dan kerjasama Dr. Siti Hasmah telah membuka klinik persendirian yang bernama Klinik MAHA, di Jalan Tunku Ibrahim, Alor Setar. Klinik MAHA merupakan klinik Melayu pertama di Negeri Kedah. Selain daripada perkhidmatan perubatan, klinik MAHA juga telah menjadi pentas untuk beliau menjalankan aktiviti-aktiviti perkhidmatan komuniti setempat.

Keperihatinan beliau terhadap masalah ekonomi dan politik Melayu telah diluahkan dalam bentuk rencana-rencana yang diterbitkan oleh Sunday Times di bawah nama pena 'C.H.E Det' antara tahun 1946-1950. Penulisan merupakan satu dari minat Dr. Mahathir hinggalah ke hari ini. Pada tahun 1945, semasa beliau masih dibangku sekolah, Dr. Mahathir telah menjadi penyunting Darulaman, majalah rasmi keluaran Kolej Sultan Abdul Hamid. Beliau juga berkhidmat sebagai penyunting sebuah majalah yang diterbitkan oleh kolej perubatan di mana beliau menuntut. Kegigihan dan semangat untuk menyuarakan pendapat melalui penulisan telah menyebabkan beliau menghasilkan pelbagai jenis penerbitan termasuklah buku "Dilema Melayu" yang diterbitkan dalam tahun 1970.

Selain daripada menulis, Dr. Mahathir juga merupakan seorang yang rajin membaca dan berpegang tuguh kepada prinsip bahawa pembelajaran adalah proses seumur hidup. Tuntutan profesional dan politik juga tidak menghalang beliau untuk menjadikan seni pertukangan kayu sebagai satu hobi. Dr. Mahathir dikenali sebagai seorang yang kreatif dan pernah mengikuti kursus pertukangan kayu di Great Britain untuk mempertingkatkan tahap kemahiran beliau. Dalam tahun 1989, berdasarkan minat yang berterusan dalam bidang ini, Dr. Mahathir telah dianugerahkan Honorary Freedom of the Worshipful Company of Carpenters oleh British Carpenters Society.

Penglibatan Dr. Mahathir di dalam arena politik tidak begitu ketara dalam tahun-tahun 1950an disebabkan beliau masih menuntut di Universiti. Walau bagaimanapun, beliau terus menulis esei dan komentar mengenai isu-isu sosio-politik negara di akhbar The Straits Times. Perletakan jawatan sebagai doktor kerajaan pada tahun 1957 telah membolehkan Dr. Mahathir bergiat semula didalam bidang politik. Beliau telah dipilih untuk bertanding pada pilihanraya negeri tahun 1959, tetapi menolaknya.

Semasa pilihanraya umum tahun 1964, Dr.Mahathir diberi kepercayaan menjadi calon dan seterusnya berjaya memenangi kerusi Parlimen Kota Setar di atas tiket Parti Perikatan. Bermula dari sinilah beliau menempa nama di kalangan masyarakat dan senario politik negara.

Selepas memenangi pilihan raya umum pada tahun 1964, Dr. Mahathir dilantik sebagai Ahli Parlimen. Bagaimanapun, beliau hilang kerusi pilihan raya umum berikutnya iaitu pada tahun 1969.Kecenderungan dan minatnya yang mendalam dalam bidang pendidikan membolehkan beliau dilantik sebagai Pengerusi Majlis Pendidikan Tinggi yang pertama tahun 1968, Ahli Majlis Penasihat Pendidikan Tinggi pada tahun 1972, Member Of the University Court and University of Malaya council serta Chairman of the National University Council pada tahun 1974. Dr. Mahathir dilantik sebagai Senator pada tahun 1974. Beliau melepaskan jawatan ini untuk membolehkannya bertanding pada pilihan raya umum tahun 1974 yang mana beliau menang tanpa bertanding.

Berikutan daripada pilihanraya itu, Dr. Mahathir dilantik sebagai Menteri Pelajaran. Sebagai Menteri Pelajaran, langkah pertama dalam perancangan beliau adalah mengubah polisi pendidikan negara supaya ianya menggambarkan usaha-usaha ke arah menghapuskan kemiskinan dan mewujudkan keadilan untuk semua dan memastikan semua individu diberi peluang membaiki taraf hidup mereka. Sepanjang menjadi Menteri Pelajaran, beliau mengekalkan pembaharuan seperti peluang yang lebih kepada anak Melayu melanjutkan pelajaran di Institut Pengajian Tinggi, mengubah kuota kemasukan, dan beberapa kriteria kemasukan ke pusat-pusat tersebut, mengadakan biasiswa dan menubuhkan Maktab Rendah Sains Mara (MRSM).

Beliau juga bertanggungjawab meminda Akta Universiti dan Kolej Universiti 1975 yang ditentang oleh ahli akademik dan mereka yang terlibat dengan pendidikan. Akan tetapi sebagai seorang yang berdisplin dan tegas beliau berjaya melenyapkan kritikan terhadap polisi-polisi pendidikan. Kini semua pusat pengajian tinggi diuruskan di bawah Panduan Kementerian Pendidikan.

Kemenangan beliau di dalam pertandingan kerusi Naib Presiden dalam Perhimpunan Agong UMNO (Pertubuhan Kebangsaan Melayu Bersatu) tahun 1975 telah menyumbang kepada kejayaan politik beliau.

Berikutan kembalinya Tun Abdul Razak ke Rahmatullah dan perlantikan Tun Hussein Onn sebagai Perdana Menteri Malaysia ke-3 dan Presiden UMNO, Dr. Mahathir telah dilantik menjadi Timbalan Perdana Menteri dimasa yang sama menjadi Timbalan Presiden Parti.

Daripada jawatan Menteri Pendidikan, Dr. Mahathir berpindah ke Kementerian Perdagangan dan Industri dalam tahun 1978. Beliau juga adalah Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Pelaburan Kabinet dimana beliau tidak putus-putus menggalakkan perdagangan dan pelaburan asing.

Kemenangan Dr. Mahathir dalam pilihanraya umum tahun 1978 telah membolehkan beliau mengekalkan jawatannya di dalam kabinet dan parti. Akhirnya, pada 16 Julai 1981 berikutan perletakan jawatan Perdana Menteri oleh Tun Hussien Onn atas sebab kesihatan, Dr. Mahathir telah dipilih menjadi Presiden UMNO dan Perdana Menteri yang ke- 4 pada usia 55 tahun.

Dr. Mahathir digelar "Bapa Pemodenan Malaysia" dan merupakan pemimpin yang paling lama memegang jawatan sebagai Perdana Menteri, iaitu dari 16 Julai 1981 hingga 31 Oktober 2003.

Sepanjang 22 tahun beliau memegang jawatan pentadbiran tertinggi negara, banyak kemajuan dan pembangunan yang telah beliau rancang dan laksanakan. Walaupun kadangkala cetusan idea dan wawasan beliau kurang difahami, namun hakikatnya beliau merupakan seorang yang berpandangan jauh dan terkehadapan, malah lebih jauh daripada pemikiran orang Melayu khususnya.

Pada tahun 1997, majalah Asiaweek telah menamakan Dr.Mahathir sebagai antara 50 individu yang paling berkuasa di Asia, dimana beliau menduduki tempat kedua dalam senarai yang dikeluarkan oleh majalah tersebut.

Penamaan beliau memang tepat kerana ekonomi dunia ketika itu berada dalam kegawatan manakala krisis matawang melanda kebanyakan negara di dunia terutamanya negara-negara di Asia seperti Indonesia, Thailand dan Filipina.

Dr. Mahathir berjaya mengawal kegawatan ekonomi dengan menambat ringgit kepada dollar Amerika, satu pendekatan yang mendapat kritikan hebat pada mulanya oleh badan kewangan dunia seperti Bank Dunia dan International Monetary Fund (IMF). Terbukti kesannya, Malaysia adalah satu-satunya negara yang berjaya melepaskan diri daripada belenggu kegawatan tersebut tanpa perlu 'mengikat diri' kepada syarat-syarat yang ditetapkan oleh IMF seperti yang berlaku kepada negara-negara lain di Asia. Malah, Pengurus Besar IMF, Horst Kohler, pernah memuji tindakan yang diambil Dr. Mahathir dalam mengawal matawang negara.

Kedudukan beliau sebagai Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Malaysia adalah sesuai dan tepat dengan visi yang beliau rancang dan sasarkan. Dr. Mahathir telah mengubah sektor ekonomi asas negara daripada sebuah negara yang berasaskan pertanian kepada sebuah negara berasaskan perindustrian. Detik-detik awal beliau diamanahkan menjadi Perdana Menteri Malaysia, sektor ekonomi negara pada ketika itu banyak bergantung kepada bahan komoditi utama seperti getah, kelapa sawit, timah dan industri petroleum yang masih lagi diusahakan secara kecil-kecilan.

Memandangkan komoditi tidak dapat membantu mewujudkan lebih banyak peluang pekerjaan, maka pada awal tahun 1980-an Dr. Mahathir telah membuat keputusan untuk mempelbagaikan kegiatan ekonomi negara dan sekaligus mengurangkan pergantungan terhadap bahan komoditi. Keputusan yang beliau ambil adalah tepat kerana pada pertengahan tahun 1980-an, harga bahan-bahan komoditi jatuh dengan teruk. Hal ini ditambah pula dengan peningkatan harga matawang Yen yang menyebabkan berlaku kegawatan ekonomi selama beberapa tahun.

Kini, kebergantungan ekonomi negara terhadap bidang perindustrian begitu ketara apabila sektor perkilangan membentuk 30% daripada asas ekonomi negara manakala sektor pertanian menurun kepada 8% sahaja berbanding 23% kira-kira 22 tahun lalu.

Dr. Mahathir telah memperkenalkan dasar Persyarikatan Malaysia iaitu suatu dasar dimana Malaysia diandaikan sebagai sebuah syarikat dan rakyatnya sebagai pekerja dan pemegang saham. Beberapa agensi kerajaan telah diswastakan untuk meringankan bebebanan kewangan dan kerajaan. Dimasa pentadbirannya banyak syarikat-syarikat utiliti seperti Lembaga Letrik Negara, Jabatan Telekom dan sebagainya, telah disenaraikan sebagai korporat awam. Persyarikatan Malaysia telah berjaya meningkatkan prestasi, daya pengeluaran serta imej negara. Di antara langkah-langkah lain, ialah peningkatan pembagunan industri berat dan yang penting juga pertukaran teknologi asing kepada teknokrat Malaysia. Salah satu kejayaan didalam gerakan ini ialah penubuhan industri otomatif negara, yang menunjukkan kereta-kereta dan motosikal nasional adalah yang terlaris di Malaysia. Persyarikatan juga bertujuan menjana kerjasama dan bekerja sebagai rakan kongsi antara sektor awam. Dr. Mahathir juga meningkatkan penyertaan bumiputera dalam pemilikan saham sektor perusahaan dan perdagangan dengan penubuhan Permodalan Nasional Berhad (PNB) dan Amanah Saham Nasional serta Amanah Saham Bumiputera dan beberapa saham amanah dalam porfolio PNB.

Dalam usaha melakar nama negara di arena antarabangsa, pelbagai projek gergasi telah diilhamkan oleh Dr. Mahathir. Antara yang terawal ketika beliau baru memegang jawatan sebagai Perdana Menteri ialah projek pengeluaran kereta proton melalui HICOM (Heavy Industries Corporation of Malaysia).

Walaupun projek beliau ini dianggap agak keterlaluan memandangkan negara ketika itu masih muda dalam projek pembuatan kereta nasional namun negara kita boleh berbangga kerana projek ini begitu berjaya sehingga mampu bersaing dengan pengeluar kereta lain di seluruh dunia.

Sebagai orang yang memegang tampuk tertinggi pengurusan negara, masalah kewangan sering menjadi perhatian beliau dan antara tugas penting beliau adalah memastikan perbelanjaan kewangan negara berada dalam keadaan terkawal.

Dasar penswastaan negara ialah contoh pengurusan kewangan beliau yang agak memberangsangkan walaupun mencetus kontroversi di awal perlaksanaannya. Dasar yang diperkenalkan di penghujung tahun 1980-an ini bertujuan mengurangkan perbelanjaan oleh pihak kerajaan di samping memberi perkhidmatan yang lebih baik.

Walau banyak pihak mempersoalkan dasar ini, disebabkan terdapat tuduhan berlaku sikap pilih kasih terhadap syarikat yang ditawarkan projek-projek kerajaan, namun lebih ramai orang dapat menikmati hasil yang lebih baik daripada dasar yang dibuat ini.

Selain itu, dasar ini juga membawa perubahan yang sangat besar terutamanya dalam bidang teknologi kerana pihak-pihak yang terbabit perlu mempunyai kepakaran dalam bidang teknologi untuk memastikan perkhidmatan yang ditawarkan murah tetapi bermutu tinggi.

Kebijaksanaan Tun Dr. Mahathir dalam mengurus 'perniagaan' sememangnya sesuatu yang semula jadi kerana beliau pernah menjadi usahawan muda di Pekan Rabu, Alor Setar semasa masih berada di alam persekolahan.

Selain projek kereta nasional, satu lagi projek besar (mega project) yang beliau cetus ialah Koridor Raya Multimedia atau Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC). Projek ini ilhamkan dan direalisasikan memandangkan Dr. Mahathir telah sedar akan peri pentingnya teknologi maklumat dan komunikasi (ICT) dalam dunia perdagangan masa kini dan masa depan.

Projek-projek besar yang dibangunkan dan direalisasikan semasa beliau menjadi 'CEO' Malaysia antaranya ialah Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur (KLIA), Stadium Nasional Jalil, Litar Antarabangsa Sepang, tempat perlumbaan sukan permotoran berprestij, Formula One dan Menara Berkembar Petronas.

Projek-projek ini secara tidak langsung berjaya meletakkan Malaysia sebagai sebuah negara sedang membangun yang dikenali dunia. Malah corak pentadbiran dan ketegasan yang ditunjukkan oleh Dr. Mahathir semasa menjadi Perdana Menteri menyebabkan negara ini disegani dunia.

Sepanjang tempoh 22 tahun sebagai Perdana Menteri, Dr. Mahathir telah membawa Malaysia ke persada kecemerlangan. Malaysia telah melalui pelbagai pembaharuan fizikal, mental dan sosial. Malaysia telah menjadi negara yang disegani dan dihormati di pentas dunia. Malaysia mampu berdiri sama tinggi dan duduk sama rendah dikalangan negara-negara maju dunia. Kejayaan Malaysia sebagai negara membangun dan sebuah negara Islam yang unggul di rantau ini telah diiktiraf dunia. Warisan pusaka yang ditinggalkan oleh Dr. Mahathir dapat kita lihat berada di mana sahaja.

    How time flies! It's already a week in holiday. A week more to go. So far, I've started with my hobbies, cross-stitching, reading, writing and of course blogging. It's only sewing which is not started yet. Perhaps this coming Wednesday. I can send the materials to tailors but I want to make my clothes myself. It's a satisfaction that I can't explain. It's like painting and once done it is so beautiful. Oh yes, my painting hobby is still not done.Perhaps not this holidays.

   To tell the truth, I am chasing the time. I have to do lots of work that can't be delayed. Nothing can stop me but I'm afraid that my health problem will stop me to do what I have to. I can only pray that I still have the time to do all. Holidays is indeed the time for me to try recipes. There are many local delicacies that will drive away  my diet. Roti canai, nasi lemak, lontong, laksam, roti jala, vadei, chapatti etc. are some of them.The one that I like most is heart tart; a tart in the shape of heart.

   My health asked me to stop so I have to call it a day now.Hope tomorrow I will be better and can write more since I have a lot of things to share.Thank you for reading. 

A phantom or a fantasy?

Speak softly love and hold me warm

against your heart

I feel your words

the tender trembling moment starts

We're in a world

our very own

sharing our love that only few

have ever known.

Wine-coloured days warmed by the sun

Deep velvet nights

when we are one

Speak softly love

so no one hears us but the sky

The vows of love we make

will live until we die

My life is yours

and al because

you came into my world with love

so softly love

   Love that people believe is a word that sounds so sweet but yet delicate.It is wonderful and also delightful. People go for love.People fight for love.People also willing to die for love.It never considered the difference whether in race nor beliefs.  Love can give you everything. It can protect you and make you happy.

   Love that I believe is a word as cunning as a fox. It kills happiness in its smiles. It is a fantasy and yet a phantom.It haunts my life as mean as a miser.It cuts my heart as sharp as a thistle.The poison  traps me inside.It is bitter but tastes like honey.So until today, it is still a mystery.

Thank you Mr and Mrs Bird

    I like the nature and I love gardening. So when I am free, I like to do gardening. I like colourful and beautiful flowers.I really like the idea of having birds chirping happily on my beautiful plants.I enjoy listening to their cheerful songs.I really hope that the birds would come to my garden and build their nests on my plants.Unfortunately, I don't have green fingers since most of the plants I planted could only survive for less than 2 months. Besides, I am quite busy with my job.I was quite sad at first since I could expect that no birds would sing for me without the beautiful flowers or plants.

    To kill my disappoinment and to give colours to my house, I bought artificial orchids and leaves. There were 6 different colours for 6 flowerpots. I arranged the flowers with love poured from my heart.I said to myself' How beautiful it is if a bird could come and build nest on the plants.Then, one day, early in the morning, I heard happy chirping outside the house. I went out to see and I noticed that 2 small but beautiful birds flying and chirping around one of my artificial flowers in the flowerpot.I thought they came for nectar so I entered the house feeling funny ( and pity since there was no nectar in the flowers)

   For the whole week the two birds kept coming and this time I realised that they did not come for nectar but they wanted to build their nest. I followed the process of the nest building until it was almost done.Unfortunately, one day, one of my beloved cats, Milo, saw the birds and he jumped high up trying to catch them.Perhaps the birds were terrified so they never came back.I was as sad as doom.Nothing could be done to make them come back and I could not put the blame on Milo, my cat.However, I thank God for making my wish came true.I hope the birds and their babies could fly high up in the sky.Thank you for dropping by Mr and Mrs Bird.

   

I'm sorry Mrs Spider

   Arachnid - any small creature of the class that includes spiders, scorpions, mites and ticks. Arachnid + phobia - a strong unreasonable fear or hatred of arachnid. Many people do not like spiders. Me too. I thought it was scary with its hairy legs and ugly appearance. Whenever I saw it, I would try to shoo it away. Its presence would make me feel unsecure. I felt like killing it each time I saw it appeared in front of me.

   One day ( about a fortnight ago ) I entered the toilet then I saw a spider tried to hide behind the door. I poured water on it and used any means to make it go away. I saw that it tried to spin its web.I looked closer... oh dear! It was a five-legged spider.It was as devoted as a mother.Despite all the means I did to make it go away, the spider still stay behind the door in the toilet until today. It makes me realise that regardless of all the bad means I did to make it go away, it still survive.I was indeed a bad person. But ' It is never too late to mend' as the saying goes.

   Today, it becomes my friend since I learn to be more patient and accept my shortcomings. I hope she knows ( it's going to have babies ) that I  say : I'm sorry Mrs Spider

Can't take my eyes off you 1

     My dear darling, I don't know how to spin the yarn that I love you so much.You whet my curiosity about life, about myself.You always save my neck and make my life plain sailing.Whenever I need you, you always on your toes to get rid of my foes.I used to be a broken reed when you come to fulfill my need.You fight tooth and nail without taking your heels.

    My dear darling, you never touch me on the raw when I am on my last legs.You never turn your back upon me when I am with my back to the wall. You help me in my job until I know the rope.You are the salt of the earth and you give your life so I might live. You are all the world to me.You help me to be quick in the uptake.You inspire me to be in high feather.You are my love, my darling forever ; my dear d i c t i o n a r y

What is Bio Disc?


The Bio Disc is a natural energy generating device that produces SCALAR energy frequencies that have no negative side effects.
The energy created specifically rejuvenates molecular structures in all liquids.
The molecular structure causes any liquid to become more hydratious, taste better and extend shelf life.
Testimonial from Julie Ying, Singapore


Why did I buy Bio Disc?


Because of my breathing problem. They said the disc can create energy and can maybe help me solve it. So I bought one and tried it.


One day while sitting down and reading my newspaper, I suddenly felt very uncomfortable. I couldn't breathe and so I used the disc and placed it on my chest, slowly feel better.


I drink the Bio water everyday and place the disc under my bed every night. When I wake up in the morning my body feels very light & fresh. I also had backache and skin problems. During the night when I sleep, my skin always felt very itchy. Now, my backache problem is much better and my skin no longer feels itchy and has become smooth. Also my breathing problem has been solved.


I can feel it improving my health.


Thank you.

Testimonial from Ivy How, Singapore
Why did I buy this Bio Disc?


I bought it for my mum to use


Problems:
Because both my mother’s legs get cramps every morning and her palms are always cold like ice. She always gets a sore throat and ulcers in her mouth. She doesn’t like to drink water because she doesn’t like the taste of the water. Every night her skin feels itchy and she will scratch herself.


Results:
After using Bio Disc for 2 months, she doesn’t feel her legs cramp as often. Now her palms feel warm and she doesn’t get sore throats and ulcers in her mouth. She now drinks a lot of water everyday because she finds that water tastes better and her skin doesn’t feel itchy anymore.


Ivy How (19.08.2006) Testimony



Copyright 2007 - 2010Bio Disc, The Miracles of Nature's Healing PowerBio Disc, The Miracles of Nature's Healing PowerWhat is It Made of?


The Bio Disc is made of 13 TECHNICALLY ENGINEERED natural minerals
A NANO FUSION process using several high heat fusion methods, structurally bonds the minerals together, at a molecular level.
The combination of the minerals and the fusion techniques produces a catalytic conversion of energy known as “Scalar Energy”.
This 21st century technology develops a long lasting natural scalar resonance which has the ability to be transferred to any liquid, renewing the natural molecular chains.
How does the energy transfer to the water using the Bio Disc?


The Bio Disc energy spins into the liquid, counter clockwise,
or the liquid can be poured over the bio disc where it ‘picks up’the resonance.
The resonance generated is similar to that which is found in the earth surrounding many healing spring waters of the world.

He is also a reviewer of the following societies: International Society on Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics, and International Society on Computer, Communication and Control Technologies.


Tests run by the PROGNOS machine has shown that the Chi Pendant possesses a positive energy field. Results from the system have shown that after wearing the pendant, the tester's energy levels has increased and disharmony of his meridian system is reduced. PROGNOS is a diagnostic and therapy system based on Traditional Medicine which uses a painless method to create a picture of the energetic state of the body. This is measured through the subject's meridian system, or the energy courses of the human body. PROGNOS and its manufacturer MedPrevent has been accredited with EC and ISO certifications by the EUROCAT Institute for Certification and Testing.

The Amezcua Bio Disc has been evaluated and certified by the following institutions:




I.H.M. Institute, Japan


Research has pointed that there is a correlation between the formation of water crystals and the quality of water, in terms of degree of pollution. In recent I.H.M institute research, it became clear that energy can affect the formation of the water crystal. Thus, the water crystal formation reflects not only physical but informational or energetic aspect of the water. Water samples with a good balance of minerals and energy tend to produce beautifully-formed crystals.


A water crystal experiment done at the institute has shown that water treated with Amezcua Bio Disc produces more beautiful and good water crystals as compared to normal distilled water. The treated water also has less "depressed" water crystals.


The I.H.M. Institute in Japan was founded by Dr Masaru Emoto, a Doctor of Alternative Medicine. Dr Emoto achieved international acclaim through his extensive research of water around the world. He is also the President Emeritus of the International Water for Life Foundation.


Dr. med. Manfred Doepp, Germany


The effects of Amezcua Bio Disc on the quality of water and the bio-energetic state of the human body are tested by Dr Manfred Doepp at the Holistic Center in Germany, using meridian diagnostics. The test result shows that Amezcua Bio Disc has a successful operational area in the energetic-informational treatments of liquids and water containing nutrients.


The result shows that the Amezcua Bio Disc is able to convert the negative effects of tap water into positive effects. Water treated with the Amezcua Bio Disc has an increased level of energy and harmony. Test results also reveal that when the Amezcua Bio Disc is held by the testers, their energy and harmony levels showed a significant increase.

PROGNOS, Germany


Tests run by the PROGNOS machine has shown that the Amezcua Bio Disc possesses a positive energy field. Results from the system have shown that after drinking water treated with the Amezcua Bio Disc, the tester's energy levels has increased and disharmony of his meridian system is reduced.


PROGNOS is a diagnostic and therapy system based on Traditional Medicine which uses a painless method to create a picture of the energetic state of the body.

PSB Laboratory, Singapore


The results show, after treatment by Amezcua Bio Disc, surface tension value of the treated water has been reduced. Reduced surface tension renders the water more bio-available, thus improving the transfer of nutrients in and out through the walls of the cells.


PSB test reports are widely recognised by manufacturers, third party buyers and government authorities in Singapore. Its laboratories are also accredited under the Singapore Accreditation Council - Singapore Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (SINGLAS) to ISO17025.

Aku rindu padamu...

    Hujan yang turun, bagaikan mutiara....bersinar berkilau berkerdipan...Hmmm.... Lagu Hujan bernyanyi merdu di kalbuku. Adakah benar hujan itu indah?Atau hanya fantasi sang penyanyi dan penggubah?Ku pejam mata senyap dalam diam.Hanya desah nafas yang resah. Bilakah hujan akan berhenti agar dapat ku langkahkan kaki.

   Andai dulu hujanlah yang ku nanti. Bersama adik, bersama kakak riang berlari-lari,bergurau senda dalam hujan yang indah.Ahh!Peduli apa andai tubuhku basah kerana hujan adalah anugerah. Tiada siapa akan melarang kami meredah hujan mencari keseronokan,bersama jiran, rakan dan teman. Kami puas bernyanyi, bercanda dan tertawa. Penat berlari, perut diisi.Ubi rebus sambal tumis,pulut tanak, kopi manis.

   Masa pantas berlari pergi.Meninggalkan kenangan dalam sanubari.Kini hujan seolah penghalang buat insan yang konon sentiasa berjuang.Untuk masa, untuk peluang. Hujan tidak lagi indah, penyejuk hati, penghibur diri. Maka hujan yang dulunya riang memberi cinta dan kasih sayang, kini hanya mencurah dengan pasrah.Ahh!Hujan ( Aku rindu padamu)

Me?A vampire?

      The story about ghosts, reminded me of what my student said last thursday."Teacher!Why do you have fangs?" "What?"I was at my wit's end.The question took my breath away.I asked him what he meant and he told me that he saw fangs in my mouth and I grinned at him.I said I didn't grin at him at all since I was looking at someone else.The idea of me having fangs made my hair standing on end!I asked him whether he was pulling my leg and he said "no".He said he did see the fangs but they disappeared when I started talking to him.My blood ran cold when I heard his words.Thinking that the boy had castle in the air, I left the class.

     On the next day, I entered the same class to see the boy. I forgot to ask his name but I could still remember his face.I asked the students there if there's any absentees and they said no so until today I don't know who I talked to...Me?Vampire?Still a mystery.

Was it really a GHOST?

    Hantu kum-kum, pocong, balan-balan, pontianak, penanggal, orang minyak, toyol, kuntilanak, sundel bolong, dracula,tuju-tuju, poltergiest, hantu raya, zombie and hantu cina are example of ghosts known by many people.Do they really exist? Well, I would like to share my experience which happened 2 months ago.

   To tell the truth, I did not believe any ghost myself until one day... It was 6.46 p.m.I was on duty to lock the back gate of my school. Students went home at 6.40 p.m. so no one was around at the gate. I walked fast since I planned to go home early. It was Thursday and The Malays believe that on ' malam jumaat'( thursday's night) there are many ghosts around.  I tried to lock the gate but unfortunately the key fell off my hands. While I was picking  the key up, I saw a figure was grinning at me. I was really thunder struck!It was only 2 metres away in front. It was only 1 metre tall, bald,with red big eyes, sharp teeth and my God It's green, as green as grass!The creature wore short black faded short with no shirt.I thought someone tried to monkey about with it so as brave as Achilles, I walked fast to it and grabbed its hand.It was really the skeleton at the feast because it disappeared right under my nose!None to speak of!

   Then, I picked up the key and locked the gate. I tried to comb out the place because I still did not believe my eyes.But I found nothing. I knew that if I tell others, no one would believe me so I hushed it up until today.Was it really a ghost?I don't know...

A Family

Two little chicks
staying in the bed
eating no food
getting rid of the fat.


One big cock
babbling round the clock
shouting on the rock
the sound made "Knock!Knock!Knock!"


One not big fat hen
saying "Cluck!Cluck!Cluck!
getting annoyed by the chicks and the cock!

I AM SORRY!!!

    Here I am again after a very busy week.Thank God that I could finish all my work before the due date so I can do my hobbies the whole holidays.(Hmmm....Can't wait to draw/paint,write,read,sew,cross-stitch and go blogging.

    It's quite difficult to explain my feelings today.Happy and sad;blended.I am happy because  today I could attend my friend's wedding.People showed happiness everywhere and smiles on every face. Lots of delicious food enough for everyone.Today,too, my younger brother and his whole family arrived from Shah Alam spending the weekends with our parents.We had BBQ happily. Lots of mouth-watering food, more than enough for everyone. 

  

    Today,I turned on the tv and I saw the news about Palestine /gaza. Not enough food for people to eat.The rights are denied by Isreal.People show hatred and anger.People urge to ban Israel's products etc.I strongly believe that the life is so hard.There is no or perhaps less weddings with delicious food.There is no BBQ with mouth-watering delicacies.Maybe there are people who are starving.Many people are dying.And pretty sure there are lots of cries and wails and shouts.

   Today, at the wedding, I saw many people took lots of food but did not finish them.Later, to be eaten by the dustbin.Today, at my parents' place, my nieces and nephews ate the food but still lots were not eaten. Perhaps still ok until tomorrow or be eaten by the dustbin too. Here, my cats and kitten are hugged and loved by my whole family.No one is allowed to hurt them.But there, in Gaza, humans are treated like animals.

My heart is sad but I am bad because I still like 'The Nanny'....I AM SORRY!!!
