My beloved school turns 100... !!!

My beloved school Sultan Abdul Hamid College turns 100 years old...
It's quite unfortunate that I could not be there in Alor Setar, with all the proud Collegians and Old Boys to celebrate this wonderful mark of history.

The chronicles and glory

Sultan Abdul Hamid College (KSAH) was established on 8th December 1908 and the first Principal was Allahyarham En Mohammad Iskandar, the beloved father of Tun Mahathir. Since its establishment, KSAH has produced countless leaders, businessman, patriots, and professionals.

To name a few, all of them including the 1st Prime Minister Al-Marhum YTM Tunku Abdul Rahman, Tun Mahathir Mohammad, Sultan Muadzam Shah who is the current ruler of Kedah, Tan Sri Khir Johari, Tan Sri Dr Othman Yeop, Tun Ahmad Fairuz etc.

Once a collegian, always a collegian
This is the motto being passed from seniors to juniors.... that, we will always look back and be proud of our root, where we came from. All the great experience I got from KSAH really shaped myself of becoming what I am today. Thanks to all the teachers, friends, and non-academic staff that have made my secondary school experience the most valuable one.

Special thanks...
Apology to all my great teachers that I lost contact with all of you... I pray for all your health and happiness, only God can repay your kindness. Thanks Mrs Murugesan for polishing my English in Form 3... Thanks Mr Thiagarajah for your Math lesson... Thanks Cikgu Hussein for recruiting me into KSAH debate team.... thanks Cikgu Zaitom for your trust to lead the Forum Remaja team... thanks Mr Segaran and Cikgu Dina, the best Prefect's advisors ever... Thanks Cikgu Zaitun, Cikgu Aziah and Cikgu Muliati for your kind attention... Thanks my favourite Form teacher Cikgu Norsiah, Cikgu Sharifah, Cikgu Siti Rafeah and Mr Ooi Eng Lee... and thanks to all the wonderful people that their names might not listed here, but I do appreciate all your kindness. And, an extra thanks to Cikgu Hussein, for the trouble coming to my house and met my parents to extend the invitation to the Best Student SPM 1994 award ceremony.

2004 : The saddest day of my life...

25th September 2004 , my beloved father passed away. That was the saddest day of my life. He was knock down by a Pajero while riding his Honda C70, 6 days earlier. At first, the doctors thought that he only broke his ankle, but they never noticed he suffered internal bleeding until he vomited blood on the 3rd day in hospital. He was then transferred to the ICU Ward. He had to rely on life-support machine after that. It was heart tormenting to see him in that condition. I felt helpless that nothing I was able to do to ease his pain. It was the heaviest test from God that my family and I had to go through. We could do nothing but pray to God for His mercy and blessing. Then, in the morning of 25th September, my father passed away peacefully to meet his Creator. A day before the accident... I took my father, mother and my niece to the Duty-Free Zone in Bukit Kayu Hitam, the day before the accident. We went sightseeing and shopping. He bought a nice shirt that he liked very much. Lat...

Tips Temuduga Untuk "Fresh Graduates" (Part II)

6. Come early for interview but not too early Many people always advise us to come early for an interview; at least 1 hour or so. The reason being is to avoid you feeling restless and panic if any unanticipated event happens, i.e car broke down, traffic jams etc. You will have an ample of time to handle should any of this thing happens. What I want to add to the above 'usual advice' is that; it is good to come 1 hour (or more) early, BUT only enter the interview place 30 minutes before the interview. 30 minutes will be sufficient for you to fill in any personal data forms or anything. This is because; many companies do not like people 'flooding' their reception area. They might think that you have no respect for time. This rule only applies for scheduled interview. For an open interview, crowd is something normal and has already been anticipated. Therefore, if they ask you to come at 3.00pm, please don't come at 2.00pm. You must understand that the company ha...

Job Market: Is it now really the "Employer's Market"?

Employer's Market = Employer sets the terms and conditions while prospective employee just obey without question. Frankly, the economic situation now might not give people like us (the workers) much of a choice or making demands in the interview. In fact, it's not even advisable for anybody to change job in this time of economic instability. The reason being is the tendency of big companies to shut down their overseas plant and to reduce their work force.   However, for the sake of ' testing the market ', I went for an interview somewhere in December last year. Here is my story to share with you:   Terms and condition... I went for an interview with this Bank for the post of IT Manager... it went well, nothing much hassle with the interview though. The only thing I was not comfortable was the fact that they were offering a  6 month contract employment  as a start. If I managed to meet the KPIs, then only a new Offer Letter with a  permanent employment ...
