January 2008 is now gone...

Just a quick one before leaving for EQ to fetch guest from Singapore.

Time flies so fast as if 2008 comes to an end already!

Lolog passed away yesterday. Teringat last Umrah in Sept 2008 balik sekali dengan dia on the same flight Jeddah/Singapore.

Begitulah akhirnya sebuah kehidupan... Al-Fatihah untuk Arwah & semoga rohnya ditempatkan bersama-sama orang yg beriman.

one more on the go... Sri Acapella at night !

Sri Acapella here we come ! Kalau ada rezeki & dgn izinNya...

Another hectic Day!





Teringat previous Sunday of 20th Jan 2008, we were in Malacca.





To be exact, Bard & Lan took us there to visit Apek Cina for alternative medicine for my wife & me + seeked advice over Ayah's health condition.



Quite thrilled when the Apek Cina commenting on my wife current state of health condition! macam bomoh melayu yg selalu kita jumpa sebelum ni.

Later we had Bento dinner together with Anis & Shahdee at Plus Tower near Desa Danau...

My sister cikgu Linda requested to post our parents photo in my blog so that everyone can have access to view this lovely photo whenever we feel like viewing...

Here we go ! and salam sejahtera buat Ayah Bonda di Shah Alam dengan doa semoga sentiasa di bawah perlindungan Allah swt. Amin...

terlupa nak submit rombongan orang KL sedang menjamu selera kat KM masa kenduri hari tu... yg paling sihat tu lah adik I...

Minggu ni ada kat Penang - just take time off after had two weeks hectic schedule - had been to KUL trice, drove, flew & drove again - in between flew to Singapore for two days meetings with counter-part and few customers. Last weekend I was in KUL stayed at AYSA's palace for two day - Special Thanks to AYSA! your kind hospitality is highly apprciated.

Semalam had round of golf at BJCC. Got to know new golf buddy Mamu Zack, Brother Zainon, Mad & Din. Prior to that, had 9 holes session. 1st time walking over 1st nine @ BJCC - what an cool experience!

So, what's the latest for now.

So many plans on the table pending to be executed ! among others :-

1. Caltex submission ? to submit proposal for proposed kiosk site in Kulim

2. Had decided to purchase one unit of shop lot @ Juru Auto City from PDC. 10 % already paid pending for site visit and rest of financing plan within one month from now.

3. contemplating to buy on private capacity Sri Acapella at Shah Alam, Section 13. To get AP to assist for site visit.

4. To acquire warehouse space @ Prai belongs to Ah Soon for new project of 230,000 sq ft warehouse capacity. Some big thing to be seen pretty soon.

5. My private plan with Public Mutual had minor setback due to new ruling set by EPF - no matter what, to pursue further ok.

6. K5 project for Schenker also coming very fast - How to take advantage ? and to acquire K1 & K2 from KTPC?

7. Customers are asking for more space but to no avail for now! positive setback so to speak in Kulim especially...

On a serious note, Ayah in Shah Alam is resting well despite of the suffering he is undergoing. Special prayers for him so that he is always in peace while battling through the current situation - Insya Allah.

Oh ya, we had our "Kenduri doa Selamat & Selamat Menyambut Maal Hijrah 1429" well done at KM Resort last 12th Jan 2008. As usual, Ustaz Aziz took the lead. Many guests had turned up like Tawfeek Bajneed & family, Tuan Haji Azmi & Wife, Sham our immediate neighbour, Mamu Ba Tok Sham, Ustaz Asraf & friend, Puan Hazlinda, Aman, Haziq, Untie Mon & the new baby born, Hakim all the way from KUL and not forgetting all relatives, friends of Amirah etc.

Thanks to everyone who came and spent their times to celebrate the above occassion together!

Those guests from KUL had special treatment to tour Pen island and had couple of stops enjoying Ais Gunung @ Balik Pulau route and Laksa Pen and Bt Ferringgi. They also managed to buy some designers goods at the infamous night market at Bt Ferringgi - to make the whole journey worth spending...

Here we go !

Finally got the chance to introduce my PA and beloved wife, a home maker with my only child, Amirah who just jumped to form 4 after she got her PMR result last December 2007.

Want to know her PMR performance ?

She had 8 As with 1 B. What a nice combination ! Congrats to her and she sure will do better in her SPM in 2009...

We shall be inviting some relatives, friends and lawyers across Malaysia excluding Sabah & Sarawak to our Majlis Kesyukuran & Bacaan Yassin and Tahlil arwah dan doa selamat on this coming Saturday, 12th Jan 2008 at 11:30 hrs.

So, drop by at KM Resort, Georgetown if you happen to be in town.

Wassalam & Salam Maal Hijrah 1429 !

Hijrah 1429 - buktikan ! anda juga boleh berHijrah...

Sekian lama membisu tanpa berita. Perjalanan logistician macam saya ni bersama dengan syarikat gergasi memang mencabar. Jiwa & raga dicurahkan demi menjaga reputasi & prestige dan macam-macam gimik perdagangan.

terfikir untuk membuat sesuatu yg berbeza sempena sambutan maal hijrah 1429 tahun ni. malam tadi sempat berjemaah magrib di masjid kilang lama kulim. lepas sembahyang ad tazkirah oleh al ustaz illias zakaria, bekas pengarah pusat islam USM. dulu biasa jumpa kat masjid usm dalam kuliah subuh, tazkrah ramadhan lepas sembahyang tarawih. pernah juga hadhir dalam bengkel rumahtangga bahagia dsbnya. pendek cerita, ihsan ini amat istimewa kerana ilmunya.

antara intipati ceramah beliau, kita kena berhijrah ke-arah kebaikan dunia & akhirat secara individu, keluarga, masyarakat dan seterusnya kepada yang lebih besar lagi dalam kontek kenegaraan & globalisasi - contoh Allahyarhamah Benazir Bhutto di bunuh baru-baru ini menggambarkan betapa ceteknya & lemahnya masyarakat islam dunia pada waktu ini. lebih-lebih lagi bila usia dah meningkat ke 40an. Rasullulah saw pernah berkata kepada sahabat2 beliau, sekiranya ada manusia masih tidak berubah setelah mencecah usia lebih 40an, tangkap dia, lepas tu campak dalam api! maksud baginda, baginda mengambarkan kekecewaan beliau apabila umatnya gagal untuk berfungsi untuk menjadi role model yg baik sesama insan.

Ada empat soalan akan di-tanya oleh malaikat sebelum jasad kita dikebumikan di dalam kubur. yg pertama, Allah swt telah bagi kita umur, apakah pengisian yg telah kita buat dari kita lahir sampai kita menghebuskan nafas kita yg terakhir? ke-2, Apa yg telah kita buat semasa usia muda kita antara 20an ke 3oan? ke-3, Allah swt telah memberi sedikit ilmu kepada setiap insan di dunia ini. Apa yg telah kita buat dgn ilmu yg kita ada tu ? dan yg ke-4, Allah swt telah memberikan kita rezeki, segala nikmat hartabenda, wang ringgit dan macam2 lagi. Daripada mana kita perolehi hartabenda & wang ringgit tersebut. semua ini kita kena jawab sebenarnya sebelum kita dikebumikan lagi. Ini kes berat beb. Kena buat sesuatu yg serious!

The moral of the story, sebenarnya, saya sedang mengumpulkan sedikit sumber untuk tidak terikat dengan aktiviti2 materialistik routine saya lebih kurang 20 tahun yg lalu. Mungkin dalam masa terdekat ini staying away for 3 to 6 months doing some freelancing works at my own pace. Reflecting the things i have been doing so far. Is it really worth it to continue. Renew my close relationship with my parents, wife, only daughter, friends & sahabat etc.

So, hang nak buat apa ?
