Whenever I read about economic articles, it always led me to ponder about what I've learnt so far, and trying to memorized and applied the lesson on the particular article. I admit, I am still not yet that good, as I need to take time to think and relate with the lesson that I've learnt in the class. Sometimes, I have the urged wanting to revise my revision books. For example, when I heard about Greece's proposal for "bridge loan", that particular term was not learnt in class. So I have to ask "Professor Google" about it. Actually, that is not what I am intended to write right here, What I am intended to write here is regarding the forecasted Malaysia's economic growth since that was the headline for today's New Straits Times.

Since most Malaysian are too lazy to read, I'm going to simplify and extract out the essence of the article. This article is due to our Bank Negara Malaysia governor, Tan Sri Zeti Akhtar Aziz comments at the release of 2014 Bank Negara annual report yesterday.

1. In a highly open economy, in the event that external risks materialized, Malaysia will adversely affected, but our "strong fundamentals" will act as buffer to mitigate the impact.
As expected, the challenging market out there will somehow affected our economy. However, in order to make people feel ease a little bit about it, we can say that the impact will not be sudden. But I guess it will be proportionally felt by us. Those "fundamentals" can be assumed as cushion or airbag to slow down the impact.

2. Headline inflation is projected to be lower at two to three per cent this year compared to average 3.2% last year due to the lower global energy and food prices.
Aside from the fluctuates fuel price, I can't relate any of it or even imagine it, at least right now . So far, every expenses burden me. Maybe this can  be changed later on this year?

3. Ringgit was significantly undervalued.
She however dismissed the notion that this happened due to Malaysia's dependence on a particular sector *cough* Oil & Gas *cough*. She said that 80% of the economy structure are services and manufacturing  sector combined. Which currency depreciation is beneficial for those two sector because it can increased exports from the country. So, should I suggest we go for local products as alternatives for imported product before?

4. Local banking sector remained strong.
She claimed that Bank Negara Malaysia conducted stress tests on a quarterly basis so that action can be taken whenever there is vulnerability that can cause economic disruption detected.

5. The implementation of the GST will affect the earning of commodity-related sector.
This is due to the lower consumption by the public, as expected. But she said it can be neutralized by the lower fuel price. She also claimed that GST impact on overall headline inflation was expected to be contained, because basic necessities are either zero-rated or exempted from GST while for some other items, the GST would merely replace the existing SST, she said.

6. Public consumption expected to grow moderately, public investment to grow positively.

7. Gross exports is projected to moderate amid lower commodity prices. Export of manufactured products, however, expected to increase at a stronger growth rate.

8. Steady inflow of new large private projects and strong domestic demand are expected to drive growth in imports.

In my personal opinion, we have to see this as a whole. Maybe it is right, Malaysia's economy expected to grow steadily. But that is just a valuation based on the number. A holistic approach should be taken in order for us to achieve our dream to be a fully developed nation by 2020 (still skeptical about it). It would mean nothing if we manage to be a highly-income nation yet our wealth disparity still yet near to be solved. We shouldn't be selfish in developing a nation. Let us grow together and together, we can enjoy fruitful and prosperous nation.

Assalamualaikum and good day to everyone! I have to make it fast because in just one hour, it will be a new day here in Malaysia and this story will get expired by then.

So today is the Twitter's 8th birthday (correct me if I'm wrong) right? 21st March 2006 according to wikipedia. Therefore today twitter allows us to see our, OR ANYBODY ELSE'S first tweet. So go on, stalk your crush, take a look at their first tweet. I did view a few of my friends' tweet and make fun of it. So, this is my first tweet:

Infinitesane is now on twitter! Yes! Yes! Yes!
— Infinitesane TV (@InfinitesaneTV) March 25, 2012

Remember? of course not... me neither. You can check your (or other's) first tweet by click here.

Ok, that's all. see you later...

It's been a while since I wrote about wrestling and honestly it's quite awkward to write back. So please excuse me for the awkwardness that you'll perhaps encounter throughout this entry. Wrestlemania XXX (it means 30) is just 3 weeks away on 6th April (or 7th according to your timezone). From my personal opinion, there are so much things happening right now that it actually shows us the new direction toward this business.

Young Guns Jumping On

You just cannot deny the fact that many young talent nowadays get pushed by the WWE. Just look at Daniel Bryan and Bray Wyatt(both are on the poster), Roman Reign and Antonio Cesaro (okay, just Cesaro). Plus, they back it up with superb performance. The audience are backing they up. WWE really made great return on that NXT investment. That means the very talented midcarders like Dolph Ziggler, Tyson Kidd, heck, even Alberto Del Rio left behind because of these young talented rising stars. The crowd still chanting "We Want Ziggler" on each show. I know it because I want it to. He is one of the best seller in my book. Even when he had to be a jobber, he do it well and of course, stealing the show. I feel sorry and disappointed for him. This is the problem WWE are facing right now, (this is just my opinion, you don't have to agree if you want to) the "pool of talent" that WWE have is too many, it's "spilling off". And then you see familiar face like Ethan Carter III on TNA. Of course it's so obvious that he is Derrick Bateman from NXT. It's not wrong having so many talent on the roster, I just believe if only they can have a good build up story line, that will be great for TV. But I know I just can hope and honestly, managing so many talent is a real pain in the A$$.

Fans Perspective

WWE fans (damn it, I don't want to use universe, it's too cheesy) is very different on the previous era. Fans nowadays watching wrestling for a good match, and smooth story line. We (I include myself into the universe) treated it as we watch other TV series. We know it is scripted, not like before that the fans take some serious heat to the wrestler, basically a heel. We nowadays appreciate well executed wrestling maneuver and good, entertaining story line. We even cheer for a heel. We don't dig wrestlers with big, bulky muscular man anymore. As long they perform on the ring and entertained us, we're fine. We are more appreciating good performers than individual themselves. That is what happened to poor Batista. He did a comeback, won Royal Rumble and straight away get a main event spot in WrestleMania for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship? That is pissing CM Punk thus left WWE for good. And just like he said in his infamous pipebomb,

I'm just a spoke on the wheel -- the wheel's gonna keep turning. And I understand that...

People will still buy PPV, watch RAW and SmackDown (I know I do) and bought merchandises. However Punk, personally I still miss you, your pipebomb and your in-ring action. If you ever feel want to make a comeback, I will cheer you. From my living room (or wherever I am).

Conclusion

As a conclusion, WWE need to adapt with this new direction of the wants of the fans. With their WWE Network (still not available in Malaysia, why Vince, why?), they're heading a little bit to the right direction and I hope to see more quality matches and story lines in the future. Or else I'll stop watching WWE and watching TNA. (I'm joking, TNA has best matches, but sucks at their story line). A lot of young and talented wrestlers waiting their turn to barge in to the main roster.

See you later,

Assalamualaikum and a very good day to all visitors (not sure if there're still any) Infinitesane Daily. After almost 7 months this blog being abandon, I decided to resurrect it back. Don't hope too much, I'm still not able to give 100% commitment to this blog. Unfortunately, I will not able to "revamp" the whole blog. The interface might be just the same.

However, the Daily Dose will not exist anymore after this. The Daily Dose concept will just refrain Infinitesane Daily to update any news/stories as fast as we can. I will also try to find any contributor to write here. I guess this is all for now. I'll see you again next post.

(Melayu)

Assalamualaikum dan salam sejahtera kepada semua pengunjung (tak pasti samada masih ada) Infinitesane Daily. Selepas hampir 7 bulan blog ini terbengkalai, saya mengambil keputusan untuk "membangkitkan" semula. Tapi jangan terlalu berharap sangat, saya masih tak dapat memberi 100% komitmen kepada blog ini. Malangnya, saya tak dapat mengubahsuai seluruh blog ini. Antaramukanya kebarangkaliannya adalah sama.

Walaubagaimanapun, Daily Dose tak akan wujud lagi selepas ini. Konsep Daily Dose hanya akan menyekat Infinitesane Daily untuk mengemaskini berita/cerita sepantas mungkin. Saya juga akan cuba mencari penyumbang untuk menulis di sini. Sampai di sini sahaja dahulu. Jumpa lagi di entri akan datang.

Assalamualaikum and very good day to InfinitesaneDaily viewer.

This Saturday is the independence day for Malaysia. I just want to say that I'm very grateful breathing on a free land, despite of political issues lingering around this country, I still can say that I can still walk around, having a good time with my family and friends without having any restriction or detention.

Independence day has become a celebration for Malaysian, a public holiday. Many (not all) young people are more concern about where to hang out on the night of the celebration rather than to reflect on the sacrifices made for our freedom.

When I turn on the news and saw conflict in Syria, Egypt and Palestine, my heart cry. As a Muslim, they're my brothers and sisters. Sometimes I don't want to watch it because it hurt. Assad with the chemical weapon, and USA insist to attack Syria. Who is the victim? Of course the defenseless citizen. You don't have to be smart to know that.

So, I urge all Malaysian to be grateful and embrace the freedom. Do not jeopardize this freedom just for a political interests. It's fine to have differences, but don't make it as an excuse to ruin this freedom.

I wish we all live in peace and harmony.

Assalamualaikum and good day to all Infinitesane Daily visitors,

It's first Ramadhan and I'm not gonna miss to post about it. First Ramadhan have brought different experiences to every person. It's a joy everytime we heard the maghrib athan and when having an iftar time.

As for me, it's kind of normal 1st Ramadhan, but as usual, it was a bit tiring. It is not a surprise because it's been a year since my last time fasting. I guess my stomach will get used to it soon enough.

I would like to know how y'all fill your ramadhan this year. If there's still exist Infinitesane Daily reader, share your ramadhan experience with hashtag #RaikanRamadhan which is literally means "celebrating ramadhan". Ramadhan is a month that we all should cherish since it is the month that full with Allah's blessing. Grab this opportunity and make it the best you can.

With that, see you later,
wassalam.

Assalamualaikum dan salam sejahtera saya ucapkan kepada semua pengunjung Infinitesane Daily. Tajuk entri hari ini hampir sama dengan buku karya perdana menteri Malaysia ke-4, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohammad. Tapi ianya tak ada kena dengan karya tersebut, tapi ianya ada kena mengena dengan isu semasa.

Rumah dah siap, pahat masih berbunyi. Pilihanraya ke-13 sudah lama tamat, demamnya pun sudah makin surut, namun masih ada saki-baki pihak-pihak yang masih tak mahu berhenti dengan isu-isu yang meniup api kemarahan. Ingin saya tekankan disini, saya bukanlah penyokong tegar mana-mana pihak, saya dah menjalankan tanggungjawab saya sebagai pengundi, dan biarlah Allah menentukan mana yang terbaik.

Mula-mula, saya secara peribadi kurang bersetuju dengan siri perhimpunan yang dianjurkan pembangkang, saya tahu, ramai kenalan saya tahu saya ini lebih menganjur ke pembangkang dari kerajaan. Namun saya merasakan siri perhimpunan ini membuang masa, dan sebagai pencinta negara, saya sangat sedih dengan perhimpunan-perhimpunan sebegini yang menghasilkan sampah sarap dengan kuantiti yang banyak. Sudah berkali-kali saya tekankan yang kita takkan mencapai taraf negara maju seandainya mentaliti kita tak nak maju. Mentaliti berkelas tinggi akan bertanggungjawab meskipun terhadap sampah mereka sendiri. Saya sering menggunakan pengangkutan awam, tiket bas yang telah digunakan akan dibuang sejurus selepaspenumpang turun dari bas. Susah sangat ke nak simpan sampah kering tu buat sementara dalam tangan, atau dalam poket sementara mencari tong sampah? Sebelum saya lari dari topik, ayuh kita kembali semula kepada tajuk kita. Sekiranya benar BN menipu dalam pilihanraya, lakukan semua cara yang benar melalui undang-undang. Selebihnya, tawakkallah kepada Allah, dia yang mengizinkan segalanya berlaku. Usahlah menggangu produktiviti negara, atau mengganggu waktu berkualiti rakyat Malaysia.

Kedua, ini saya tujukan kepada BN. Ini adalah isi utama dalam entri ini. Mengapakah mereka ini sering memainkan isu-isu perkauman untuk membuatkan rakyat Malaysia, melayu khususnya benci-membenci terhadap kaum lain. Cina khususnya. Inilah dilema yang saya maksudkan. Samada kepentingan Islam atau Melayu yang harus diutamakan? Berbagai isu-isu perkauman ditiup di laman sosial dan bukan sedikit yang termakan dengan isu ini apabila mereka membenci kaum cina. Mereka salahkan cina bila mereka pegang ekonomi Malaysia. Malaysia ini negara Melayu kata mereka. Mereka tak sedarkah yang seluruh planet ini Allah yang punya? Kenapa harus tuding jari kepada orang lain bila masalah ini berpunca dari kita sendiri? Mereka orang cina tak dapat pun kelebihan sepertimana kita orang Melayu dapat. Masih boleh berjaya. Jawapannya adalah solidariti sesama mereka. Bila mereka berniaga, mereka saling membantu antara satu sama lain. Melayu kalau berniaga? Sesama melayu pun saling nak menjatuhkan. Macam mana nak maju? Itu belum kira yang guna jin, santau dan sebagainya. Bukankah itu merugikan melayu? Jadi, berhenti menuding jari dan salahkan diri sendiri dahulu. Di mana ada kemahuan, di situ ada jalan. Itulah yang cina lakukan. Pernahkah anda pergi solat jumaat atau solat sunat aidifitri/aidiladha dan pernahkah anda layan warga bangladesh sepertimana orang lain? Pastinya kita punya persepsi kurang baik terhadap mereka. Padahal mereka juga beragama Islam. Ternyata kita, secara majoriti lebih utamakan bangsa dari agama. Ini (klik sini) adalah post yang saya jumpa di facebook. Lihat post tersebut, lihat juga komen-komen dibawahnya, inikah sikap rakyat yang maju?

Tapi bagi saya, adalah lebih baik kita tujukan prioriti kita kepada Islam. Kenapa? Islam tak memandang bangsa. Kita boleh sepatutnya dapat perolehi kuasa ekonomi DUNIA kalau bukan kerana kita sesama Islam bertelagah, bergaduh dan berperang sesama sendiri. Kita semua saling memerlukan. Kita ada saudara berbagai bangsa. Kita perlukan semua kepakaran tersebut untuk membentuk solidariti yang mantap dan menggerunkan musuh-musuh Islam. Hebatnya musuh-musuh Islam dengan menyuntik sentimen-sentimen perkauman dan politik untuk kita berbalah sesama sendiri. Di akhirnya mereka menang, kita rugi. Bagi yang berbalah, yang kalah jadi abu, yang menang jadi arang. Muhasabahlah. Janganlah dengan mudahnya termakan fitnah tanpa usul periksa. Aku tahu masih lama lagi masanya untuk sesama Islam bersatu. Kerana mereka ego dan lupa, kuasa yang DIPINJAMKAN itu datangnya dari Allah. Mereka lupa yang dunia ini sementara. Bermuhasabah dan koreksilah diri kita.

Dengan itu, Salam malam Jumaat, jom baca surah Al-Kahfi, moga dijauhkan dari fitnah.

Assalamualaikum dan salam sejahtera kepada semua pengunjung Infinitesane Daily. Bermula dari minggu lepas, saya telah "melancarkan" hari tweet dalam jawi setiap hari Isnin dengan harapan dapat menarik minat golongan muda untuk menyayangi dan menyelamatkan jati diri mereka. Saya masih tak faham mengapakah pihak kerajaan tidak berusaha bersungguh-sungguh untuk mempertahankan tulisan jawi ini. Ianya Bahasa Melayu, bukannya bahasa yang asing. Mengapa tiada syarikat-syarikat multinational tidak diwajibkan memasukkan tulisan jawi dalam description produk mereka? ia salah satu langkah yang baik pada pandangan saya. Mujurlah seiring dengan arus peredaran zaman, masih ada pihak yang berusaha untuk memastikan tulisan jawi masih relevan di zaman globalisasi ini.

Peratusan rakyat Malaysia yang menggunakan telefon pintar semakin meningkat. Kalau saya lima tahun yang lalu tak dapat membayangkan untuk memiliki telefon pintar. Malah ketika itu telefon pintar adalah perkara yang asing bagi rakyat Malaysia. Betapa pantasnya pengaruh telefon pintar ini memberi kesan kepada rakyat Malaysia. Ianya tak memerlukan sedekad untuk mencetuskan budaya baru di Malaysia. Untuk mengelakkan saya berceloteh lebih panjang lebar di sini, saya akan mulakan tutorial untuk telefon pintar dan tablet dahulu berdasarkan hujah saya diatas ini.

Saya tak dapat pastikan samada apps ini ada di apple apps store kerana saya bukanlah seorang pengguna barangan apple, saya tak mampu. Jadi ini adalah untuk android device sahaja. Mula-mula pergi ke "google play store". Kemudian buat carian "MultiLing Keyboard" seperti di bawah:


Kemudian, cari Plugin Jawi dari developer yang sama, seperti gambar di bawah:


Setelah selesai install apps dan plugin, pergi ke apps menu untuk "enable language". Cari Bahasa Melayu (dalam tulisan jawi, ianya ada di bawah), dan tick Bahasa Melayu.


Sekarang, untuk "enable" MultiLing keyboard sebagai default keyboard, anda boleh pergi ke Setting, Language & input dan tap perkataan default untuk memilih keyboard default anda, pop-up akan keluar dan anda perlu pilih MultiLing Keyboard.



Untuk memilih keyboard, tekan "spacebar" lama-lama, pilih tulisan. Tulisan Korea pun ada. Saya biasanya menggunakan keyboard English, Jepun dan Jawi. Sekarang, anda boleh tweet dalam tulisan jawi di mana sahaja anda berada!


Untuk komputer, untuk setting tulisan jawi sangat mudah. Tetapi ada kekurangan yang ketara. Iaitu tulisan font ini agak kecil dibanding dengan tulisan rumi. Satu lagi, anda akan menghadapi kesukaran andainya anda tidak menghafal kedudukan huruf jawi di keyboard anda. Penyelesaiannya? Beli sticker untuk keyboard jawi. Tapi secara peribadinya, saya tak suka pelekat di keyboard saya. Maka saya lebih suka menulis jawi di telefon pintar saya sahaja. Untuk install tulisan jawi, pergi ke ejawi.net dan muat turun keyboard jawi, pilih release date yang paling terkini, biasanya pilihan paling bawah. Ianya dalam format zip. Siap muat turun, ekstrak dan ada manual pemasangan dalam folder yang telah diekstrak. Selamat mencuba!

Wassalam...

Have you seen Daniel Bryan on action lately? Wow! He's been on fire. I have missed wrestling for a while due to my "busy" schedule. But from what I've read from twitter, everybody talking about how good Daniel Bryan recently. "The Best In The World in What He Does" also approved that. I mean Chris Jericho if somebody wonder about it. He mention in his twitter that Daniel Bryan is the most entertaining man in the business currently. Fortunately, I now have some free time and I watched him in action. It is REALLY ENTERTAINING! The pace, the intensity, really excite me personally. I have high hope that the management will push him fairly. He deserves it. I'm looking forward for his storyline.

That word at that title really annoys most of people, including me when we saw that in the comment box, but in this entry, that's not the case...

First and foremost, Assalamu'alaikum and good day to all Infinitesane Daily visitors, I don't care how many left, but I love you...

Back to the topic, it has been 3 weeks already, it is whether I'm too busy or getting forgetful, that it is Infinitesane Daily 1st anniversary! Time flies... I'm sorry I couldn't give full commitment to this blog, I just have another priority than this blog, which is also important to me. So, I think I should be thankful for all of you who still supporting me throughout the year...

2nd is about what I am doing right now, which is typing this entry. This is the first time that I am posting entry via blogger's apps. This is what I've been waiting for. An apps so I can update blog wherever I want, whenever I want. I attach a screen capture of the apps from my phone. I never thought to search the apps at play store before but recently, I finally did it.

I think that is all for now, see you guys later,

Assalamualaikum dan selamat sejahtera kepada semua pengunjung Infinitesane Daily yang dihormati, seperti biasa, sebelum saya memulakan penulisan saya, ingin saya seperti biasa memohon ampun dan maaf kerana tidak dapat mengemaskini blog ini dengan lebih kerap. Saya telahpun mempunyai komitmen saya yang lebih saya utamakan. Namun, tidaklah pula terlintas di kotak fikiran saya untuk meninggalkan ia selama-lamanya.

Hari ini hari rabu. Bermakna ia adalah slot "Wednesday Wonder". Untuk entri santai kali ini ingin saya kongsikan apa yang saya lakukan baru-baru ini.

Tahun lepas, bapa saya mengarahkan semua ahli keluarga saya untuk membuka akaun Tabung Haji, termasuklah cucunya. Tabung Haji telah mengumumkan bahawa waiting list untuk jemaah haji mendapat panggilan adalah secara kasarnya perlu menunggu selama 20 TAHUN! bayangkanlah!

Apa yang ingin saya tekankan disini adalah untuk kita, terutama yang muda untuk mula membuka dan menyimpan di tabung haji supaya tak perlulah kita perlu terlalu tua untuk mendapat panggilan haji. Saya masih belum "menempah" nama dalam list yang hendak pergi menunaikan haji. Bukanlah untuk beralasan, tapi ia adalah kerana saya masih belum berkahwin. Saya risau sekiranya waktu saya dipanggil nanti tak sama dengan isteri saya. Maka, sekiranya saya berkahwin nanti, antara perkara terawal akan saya lakukan adalah untuk mendaftar untuk pergi menunaikan haji. Tapi duit dalam akaun kenalah ada ya?

Saya tahu dan sedar bahawa semakin kita meningkat usia, sebelum tua, kita ada berbagai "obligation" yang perlu diselesaikan. Banyak perkara lain lagi perlu diberi komitmen. Kereta, rumah, perbelanjaan rumah dan sebagainya. Bagaimana jika kita dapat "allocate" nisbah pendapatan kita secara peratus supaya dapat dimasukkan ke dalam akaun tabung haji. Mungkin juga bagi perokok-perokok di luar sana menjadikan haji sebagai motivasi mereka untuk berhenti merokok? Gunakan perbelanjaan rokok bulanan anda, ambil satu atau dua minggu perbelanjaannya untuk disimpan kedalam akaun? anda dapat mengurangkan tabiat merokok anda. Malah, mungkin suatu hari nanti anda akan dapat berhenti terus dari tabiat merokok. Saya tak nak berhujah tentang sisi kesihatan. Anda ada hujah anda tersendiri. Tetapi secara terang-terangan ianya adalah suatu pembaziran bukan? Saya tahu sukar untuk anda berhenti namun sikit-sikit mencuba, Insya Allah berjaya.

Simpanlah sedikit-sedikit setiap bulan atau setiap beberapa bulan, sikit-sikit lama-lama jadi bukit. Biar sikit, asalkan istiqamah. Bukankah itu yang digemari Allah?

Nampaknya sampai disini sahaja dahulu coretan saya, harap saya dan anda dapat manfaatnya.

Jumpa lagi,
See you later,

"Generasi Y tidak gemar mengikuti media arus perdana, mereka lebih gemar mengikuti media alternatif dimana informasinya tak dapat dipastikan kesahihannya"

Assalamualaikum dan salam sejahtera kepada semua pengunjung Infinitesane Daily yang masih setia kalau ada. Sejujurnya memang saya dah susah nak mengemaskini blog ini. Featured Entry kat slider atas ni pun tak dikemaskini semenjak Infinitesane Daily diperkenalkan lagi. Hari ini Khamis, makanya ia adalah slot "Thursday Thriller". Pilihanraya hanya beberapa minggu sahaja lagi. Jadi saya berasa terpanggil untuk memberi pendapat saya terhadap isu ini.

Ayat diatas memang ada benarnya. Tapi kena tahu juga sebab apa mereka tak berminat untuk mengikuti arus perdana. Mereka tak berminat mengikuti media arus perdana kerana media arus perdana SANGAT TIDAK ADIL. Ini fakta. Sebelum saya meneruskan tulisan saya, saya ingin tekankan bahawa saya bukanlah seorang yang kuat menyokong mana-mana parti, atau dalam kata lain pengundi atas pagar. Tapi entri ini adalah untuk memberi peringatan kepada Barisan Nasional betapa mereka menuju kearah kebinasaan sekiranya mereka terus melakukan apa yang mereka lakukan sekarang.

Adalah lebih baik saya mulakan dengan suatu yang positif. Kerajaan bawah pimpinan Barisan Nasional bukanlah tak membuat kerja langsung. Mereka juga ada menjalankan tanggungjawab mereka sebagai kerajaan dengan sewajarnya. Bantuan-bantuan yang dijenamakan semula atas nama "1Malaysia" itu memang adalah tanggungjawab mereka sebagai kerajaan. Dana tersebut datangnya dari duit rakyat juga, bukanlah dana Najib Razak. Jadi, berterima kasihlah kepada pembayar-pembayar cukai, bukanlah Najib mahupun Barisan Nasional.

Saya akan memilih kerajaan yang dapat mengurus tadbir dana dari rakyat dan diterjemahkan dengan hasil yang dapat sama dinikmati rakyat. Melihat kempen-kempen Barisan Nasional untuk pilihan raya kali ini, membuatkan saya marah apabila dengan jelas mereka membazir wang dengan amaun yang cukup banyak. Adakah itu datang dari dana BN atau duit rakyat? Kalau dana BN, siapa taja? Iklan youtube, iklan di kaca televisyen, semuanya memerlukan dana yang sangat besar. Memang, saya tak membayar cukai secara langsung, tapi saya bayar cukai kerajaan bila saya membeli Dominos Pizza atau tempat-tempat lain. Tambahan lagi, saya dapat siri SMS yang berkempen untuk BN. Salah satunya adalah seperti di bawah. Nombor berkenaan adalah nombor persendirian. Jadi untuk menghantar mesej-mesej tersebut memerlukan kredit yang banyak. Siapa bagi dana? Lu pikir la sendiri.




Lihat sahaja di kaca televisyen. Suatu masa dahulu Rais Yatim ada memberitahu bahawa pembangkang dapat membentang manifesto mereka di RTM. Tapi tak boleh secara langsung. Kenapa? Kenapa bila Najib bentang manifesto, ada dua saluran televisyen menyiarkan secara langsung tapi tidak pembangkang? Rakyat dan generasi muda ingin melihat debat manifesto antara PR dan BN, supaya dapat menafsir secara langsung manifesto masing-masing. Barulah adil dan matang. Di Amerika boleh, kenapa tak boleh di Malaysia? Sebenarnya menurut pemerhatian saya yang tak arif ini, saya rasakan yang politik di Malaysia makin matang, tapi belum cukup matang. Rakyatnya sudah tak boleh ditipu semudah-mudahnya. Golongan muda tidak mudah digula-gulakan dengan ganjaran sepertimana dahulu kala. Mereka tahu dimana duit mereka disalurkan. Jadi kerajaan patutnya tak boleh lagi menggunakan duit rakyat sewenang-wenangnya.

Isu hudud, tolonglah jangan persenda hukum agama. Itu hukum Allah, jangan jadikan ianya bahan politik. Politik itu ada dalam Islam, tapi berdasarkan keadaan semasa, politik sekarang kotor. Manusialah yang mengotorkannya. Lihat sahaja iklan di "The Star". MCA menakut-nakutkan golongan bukan Islam, Cina khususnya dengan hukum hudud ini. BN pula kata kita belum bersedia untuk melaksanakan hukum hudud ini, tapi dimana usaha-usaha untuk memberi ilmu ini kepada rakyat supaya kita bersedia? Cakap sahaja tak guna, sila bertindak.

Hak keistimewaan Melayu. Ianya dilakukan supaya dapat menjaga kelangsungan orang Melayu. Pada masa yang sama, ia jugalah sebab kenapa Melayu jadi malas, tak berdaya saing dan banyak lagilah nilai-nilai negatif yang sinonim dengan melayu di Malaysia khususnya. Orang Melayu tak perlu berusaha keras, sebab mesti kerajaan bantu. Mereka Melayu, negara ini, tanah ini milik mereka. Mereka salah! INI SEMUA MILIK ALLAH SWT! JANGAN SOMBONG, NANTI ALLAH TARIK SEMUA NIKMAT BARU NAK MENYESAL. Saya sedar, saya juga menggunakan nikmat hak keistimewaan orang Melayu itu, tapi saya gunakan sebaiknya. Saya tak membazirkan keistimewaan tersebut. Sebab itulah orang Melayu terlalu paranoid apabila hak ini dijadikan isu. Tanpanya, Melayu akan hilang, di bumi Allah ini. Maaf Tuah, memang orang melayu tak segah dahulu, Melayu layu dalam nikmat.

Kenapa Melayu dahulu gah? Kerana dahulu Melayu meletakkan agama di tempat yang selayaknya. Sekarang? Tengoklah sendiri. Jadi, Islam sepatutnya diletakkan sebagai batu asas dalam pembangunan negara. Bukan Melayu, yang beri kuasa dan nikmat itu Allah, bukan Melayu.

Sampai sini dahulu, dah panjang benar saya menaip ni. Jumpa lagi di lain kali. Dari "1st time voter",

Assalamualaikum and welcome to Infinitesane Daily. It is "Wednesday Wonder" and I am proudly present to you the first Infinitesane short film. Yeah, credit goes to all cast that probably forced to act in this project. Actually this short film is a project in a class that I'm attended to. So, please forgive any amateurishness in that production. We don't have enough time to shoot, we don't have decent equipment, we can afford to shoot many places and many more. That is why I decided to make a simple and straight-forward story. But, there are more if you watch closely. I'll tell you later after you watch it.

Assalamualaikum and welcome to Infinitesane Daily "Sunday Sunnyday". As you all already know, Infinitesane Daily is rarely updated. I got another commitment so this Infinitesane Daily is my opportunity cost. But, why wouldn't I miss to write about WrestleMania when the showcase of the immortal just in a few hour? So, here it is.

First, the matches lineup that we will watch at wrestlemania. I take this image from a facebook page that I followed, here.



I can't write much, but most of the matches are highly anticipated for me. Unfortunately, I can't watch it live since it is already Monday here in Malaysia. So, I will just manage to watch it much later on.

~New Faces~

Fandango and Big E will have their in-ring debut at the grandest stage of them all? Wow...I can't wait to watch them in action. Fandango will face Chris Jericho and Big E, if he and Ziggy win will be crowned as the tag team champion.

~Battle of the strongest~

This match is also get me interested. There are nothing much to say. I'm just unsure whether Ryback can gives shell shock to Mark Henry or not.

~The rest~

The main event? I just can't write much about it. I'm not saying that the matches aren't great, it's just kinda cliché if you ask me. Except for the Undertaker's match, the other "major matches" didn't excite me much.

I think that's all for now. Enjoy WrestleMania!

With that,
See you later,

Assalamualaikum and welcome to today "Mega Monday". Actually, tomorrow I have a written "test" and I should read/study this night. So I decided to write this entry few hours before night arrive. I just want to make a PERSONAL REVIEW about V6 newest album, "Oh! My! Goodness!". I've wrote an entry about it last Wednesday, but that is not a review. This is my review...

First and foremost, I would like to list the tracks in the album:

1. omg!
2. Supernova
3. BING♂
4. Sexy.Honey.Bunny!
5. Maybe
6. Only Dreaming
7. D.I.S
8. Exotic Trip
9. Bari Bari Buddy!
10. Otona Guyz
11. Rock Your Soul
12. Senkou Hanabi
13. Shin'ai no Kimi e
14. kEEP oN
15. orz...

Basically, as a fan, maybe my review quite bias. But, nonetheless, I think this album satisfy me. Supernova is the most anticipated song in this album since the song was introduced in their concert 2 years ago. And I've read somewhere that during this year tour, V6 has introducing a new song, "Flashback". Do we need to wait for another 2 years? I don't know.

There are a few tracks that have caught my attention when I first listened to them. They are "BING♂"(pronounced Bingo), "D.I.S", "Otona Guyz" and "Senkou Hnabi". But other songs are still good and now they're "grew" on me.

For my "Shin'ai no Kimi e" sounds like an old V6 song, but I'm not sure what song that is. But when I listen to the song, I have a nostalgic feeling, like listening to an old V6 song, the one from early 00's.

"Exotic Trip" is quite a unique song, that is why the song need some time to grow on me.

I think that's all for now, the rest are as you can expect from V6. Enjoyable and fun. Before I forget, the first and last track is just basically people saying "Oh! My! Goodness!" with a music background in it. The last track is pretty much the same. It just all V6 members saying those phrase. Can you distinguish who is making the "Oh! My! Goodness!" sound? You can get the answer in the Limited Edition B of the album. It's hillarious, spoiler: they bullied Sakamoto again...

With that, see you later,

Assalamualaikum and welcome to today "Thursday Thriller". Just a quick entry I guess. Did you know that the new pope has been chosen? After a few days, I'm not sure how many days, three maybe, the Sistine Chapel "chimney" emitting the black smoke, at last, the long awaited white smoke came out to signify that the new pope has been chosen. The 266th pope, called as Pope Francis I is the first pope from Americas that comes from Argentina. His name is Jorge Mario Bergoglio. Enough about that, do you know? China has also elected their new president? Xi Jinping is their new president.

I just want to say that being a leader carry a big responsibility. Some people love being a leader just because of the fame, the power and many other advantages. Being a leader means he need to lead. He must lead their followers to do things right. As a Muslim, become a leader is a burden as it will be asked at the judgement day. Wrong step, you got a one way ticket to the hell. 13th General Election is also just around a corner here in Malaysia. I couldn't wait to see their manifesto, their campaign, and to vote. I hope power will not blinded them and I hope I could vote the right candidate. It is our responsibility as a citizen to choose our leader.

With that,
See you later,
Jumpa lagi,
Hasta luego,

Assalamualaikum and welcome to today "Wednesday Wonder". I have no intention to write a long entry today. I'm just want to share about thing that happen to me. As you can see, I cannot update my blogs as frequent as before. I have another commitment to fulfill.

The story is just about me didn't notice about the new V6 Album, Oh! My! Goodness! Didn't interesting right? Never mind, feel free to leave this entry as you want. It is just a coincidence, I am also a wrestling fan. To all wrestling fans out there, especially WWE, remember one of Booker T catchphrase? "Oh...Ma...Goodness..." This V6 new album take the same line as their album name. And they released this album on 20th February 2013. And I just notice about it yesterday. I know about this album, but I don't remember the release date. And I know they'll do a nationwide tour this year. If only I have okane (money), I'll definitely go there.

I think that is all for now. Sorry for wasting your time, but here is their on of the new Promotional Video (PV) from that album, "Otona Guyz". The other PV is quite adult I think. I don't think it is suitable to share it here.

Assalamualaikum and welcome to all Infinitesane-Daily visitors. It is already Wednesday here in Malaysia but I know that there are certain part of the world still in their Tuesday. So, here is this edition of "Techy Tuesday". I'm late today because I watched "Monday Night Raw" in HD. Yes, we don't air it live in Malaysia because during the live airing, it is morning in Malaysia. So, most of us have things to do. Nonetheless, lets just get on to the topic shall we?

Did you watched or read Dragon Ball when you are young or when you a kid? I do, I watched and read the Akira Toriyama's masterpiece and completely attached to it. Remember the Saiyan and the Frieza troop? They are wearing something at their right eyes right? It was used as a gauge to measure another person's strength and energy. Well, Google did something like that. But not for the same purpose of course.

The Google Glasses has create the buzz at the "Techy" world. As it concern about privacy issues. Conan O'Brien in his sketch at his late night talk show, has made a bit about Google Glasses and made a parody about it called "Google Ass". But of course the buzz didn't quite felt here in Malaysia. Because we don't even know whether they decided to market it here or not.



But as a Dragon Ball fans, I am looking forward onto this device. I'm not even sure what are they offering us, the consumers. Maybe after a bit research on Google will shed light to it. Maybe, because I'm quite busy to do that things right now. I just do that thing during my free time. If you guys know what is this Google Glasses all about, drop me a comment down below. I leave you with a demonstration video of "Google Glasses"



With that,
See You Later,
Jumpa Lagi,

Assalamualaikum and welcome everybody to Infinitesane Daily, keeping you sane. I promised that I will post this entry 2 weeks ago, but due to the busy schedule or I just forgot, I finally manage to post it right now. It almost Saturday here, but it's still Friday in certain part of the globe. This time I really need to make an explanation about this issue. Because some people have misunderstood about what Jihad is.

For somebody who's not a Muslim (or maybe some Muslim don't really know), Jihad portray violence, armor, fight, killing innocent people and many other negative perception. I will briefly explain to you right here. I'm not gonna tell you in-depth since I'm afraid you're not ready to "swallow" the input I try to give to you. I will just tell you the general idea about Jihad so that you will not see Jihad as a bad thing. Do you know what I'm doing right now is a Jihad?

Jihad derived from the Arabic word: Jahada. means that to do something wholeheartedly to achieve something. So basically, protecting religion, life or dignity is also counts as a Jihad. Spreading the good teaching, like what I did right now is also count as a Jihad. I try my best to convey my kind and warm message to you, I try to urge you to do good things, is also a Jihad. Students, study to be closer to Allah, also a Jihad. The one who died in a war to protect religion is called "syuhada" or in English, a martyr. If a mom died giving birth to a child, she got the reward same as the martyr.

So, did you get the idea of Jihad in Islam? Basically, the concept is to protect. That's why it is forbidden for a Muslim (supposedly) to kill innocent people in a war such as women, children and older people. The concept is to protect. It's beautiful, not Barbaric.

I think that is all for now. I need to get some rest, I almost recover right now.
