Money?

Imagine this:

In an alternate world, where human can get money easily, very, easily. What will the value of money be? If one could get 1 Million USD in a blink of the eye, will it make the world a better place?

Or perhaps, because of the numerous amount of money, recession and inflation will occur?

I wonder.

People can buy things that they want, and what they need to survive. People will not fight any more for food, for space, and most importantly for money. There would be also no corruption as people would not want to do something immoral for money any more, because he or she can get money easily without doing bad things. Is it?

We could also see the birth of many new cities, more industrial places, or perhaps even better less of it. But who knows people in that kind of situation might think. Even now, the world is full of greedy people, that knows no boundary in searching for wealth. In his or her quest, they will ignore many of the important thing to them. Their family, the environment and the other people. I wonder what would happen if they can get money easily? Would they still be greedy?

It's a fact that rich people has less moral values in them. I wonder if in this situation, where people can get money in a blink of the eye, how will people live? Would they do many immoral things, because they have money? Or perhaps they would just live happily because they van choose not to work and spend time with their family.

All in one, money is still a something to be frightened with. People can change 180° with money. From good to bad, and vice versa.

Probability

Probability is something fun to learn and watched. There is almost no similar probability in actions, except for the probability of failing and success. Either we get or we lose.

We can never expect things to go in our way in life. That is why life is like gambling, as what some people say. We always gamble in love, in examinations, in friendship, and many more. I’d say that we probably used up all our luck when we reach 28 years old. The world is very tough these days. The new millennia, the new wave or modernization, the wars of the minds, the economic crisis. The stakes are higher than what we use to see.

Life is like war if we see it properly. Well, the word war has been stereotyped by many people, at the very least what war is for me is very different from other people. When we say ‘war’ we would always remember fights with guns and tanks. For me, war exist in learning, love, family and many others. This is where probability comes. One that can calculate the equations of probability can be quite successful in life. At the very least, even knowing how to gather all the probabilities and analyze it is more than enough.

Then again, while we might think that mathematics is everything, things can go out of way. I’d say it’s God playing His role. Evolutionist, or atheist might say it’s a natural occurrence, or accident. Either way, it’s a fact that nothing can 100% happen. Unless of course, it is something that we are used – Is there?

• The chances of one getting full marks in examination, even if he is a genius: 99% – 1% because of perhaps human error
• The chances of one getting married with woman of choice and be happy: 40% to 60%
• The chances we are going to be dead: 100%
• The chances of we are going to be lied or lie: 99% – 1% ‘Cause there is still frog under the shell…?

Well, other than death nothing is certain. So,why live?

KTM

I am very much pissed with KTM, and their way of solving congestion while waiting. To compare, Putra and STAR, which comes at around 10 minutes once with KTM, KTM is very much way behind.

From my observation, I could deduce that the ration of waiting time is 2:1. Then again, KTM never comes early. They would always have this kind of technical problems. I really wonder what is the real problem.

Why is it so difficult to raise the frequency of the trains? Is it about the money? I think in one day there would be around 30 people will go to KL Sentral, which cost 2.60. That is from Kajang alone. I think the profit that KTM receive is quite good. Not to mention that it is the only one that is quite expensive.

And the new queue system? Fuck off. No one will give a damn on a paint on the floor. Seriously. They even sit or spit on in. That is why, build a damn fence! Make it compulsory for people to properly line up and wait until ALL the passenger to go out. Make them learn to wait. Sometimes I need to wait for 3 trains then I could get into the trains. Not to mention elderly people that been pushed out of the train because of being sow. Kids being pushed around.

And then, what’s more hilarious, when people do the same thing to them, they go angry.

Anyway, KTM sucks. Your idea if queue-ing is very stupid. Even having a Polis Bantuan also never helps. People in Malaysia are also stupid. Don’t know how to wait; to queue; and being considerate.

There will be a time when…

1. We meet or see people saying bad stuff on other people, but they either consciously or unconsciously do the same thing. In fact some are much worse. I wonder what we call this thing is? Is it hypocrisy or is it irony? Sometimes it is very funny to see their behaviors, but sometimes it is irritating. Especially if the person is going all out in mocking other people. What’s worse, they cannot take critiques from other people. How wonderful can that be?

2. We meet people that has no effort. Not schneizeleffort. Just no effort at all, for instance, living, doing assignments, or perhaps in interacting. I wonder why. Although I am sometimes like that, I never neglect those close to me. It is something weird. We can see clearly that people like that are often left alone. Either that or they just want to be alone. On the other hand, dealing with these kind of people is bothersome. It’s like we are trying to get a value when we are actually multiplying by zero. Of course we get zero, no?

3. We see people that has no common sense or ability to think, at the very least knows the norm of being a civilized people. From time to time I will think why things such as elopement, rape, drug abuse and many others are freely being done by people. I wonder if they think? A very dear friend of me told me, “Do not expect everyone to think, especially in your way.” Indeed, it is true but then again, I think at the very least they should have  a grasp of basic philosophy in life; or they don’t? Seriously, Malaysian especially need to learn and think more. Not just being a frog under a coconut shell. Then again, this is Malaysia, where things that defies logic would happen – or so I think.

4. We see a lot of hypocrites. Self explanatory. Hypocrites = Bother + (Nuisance*WTH*WTF*GTHO) + Bloody Hell

5. We would see drama. It is said that everyone has their own persona, one deep down inside, kept hidden and the other one the primary persona, which is used in interactions. There are a lot of instances where people have more persona, each for every person they meet or occasions. I wonder, how can they survive in such lies? When a relationship is built on lie, all other things that happens are also lies. Lies that made up lies. (/sarcasm: Lies + Lies = GG)

A Leader

Kitleen, I am indeed interested about the article that you have given to me. Here is a bit of my ten cents.

**

This article has made me very interested. I mean, there is almost no leader like that in the world anymore. I may not know him well, or the country state of affairs to make a comment but no wonder the U.S. and many other country are afraid of Iran. Iran have a strong leader that is wise and daring, plus he knows what is meant when being a leader.

A leader works for their underling, in one way or another. In Islam, Khalifah Umar is a very good example of a leader. Read more here. For me, a leader, especially in a democratic country like Malaysia that is also a multi-ethnic country needs a leader like this. At the very least that is. Which one one would prefer? A leader that has a some social status or power, or a leader that knows the citizen and their life, and also living in their vibe?

For me I prefer the latter. For one, a leader like that can grasp more on the life of the citizen. Not like someone that does not know to see and hear what the citizen really want.

For example going to the KTM to see the disaster only after the ruckus made by the Opposition (mostly). But he still keep saying words of defying reality. People, do not like him anymore. People are annoyed. We are tired of hearing your “Tak betul,” “Tak ada perkara macam itu” and et cetera. Sometimes he reminds me of an irritating guy that only thinks for himself.

Anyway, on topic, I went to Penang, Kepala Batas. When I was looking for a place to stay for a night I found a hotel/resort under construction. While it looks dazzling, with the grand design and such, shortly after that I found that the resort is actually Abdullah’s property or so it goes. Whether it is right or wrong, having such rumors – maybe a fact – going on. Then the article came in. I thought, “Wow, what a difference.”

From what I know, Abdullah has:

1. A G5.
2. A resort.
3. ECM Libra.
4. Evenue Capital.
5. Oil-for-Food Program.
6. And the list goes on… (Tell me if you know more…)

What the hell? Even Tun, who has lead the country for 22 years does not have that much. The wealth he has is from his work and his children’s work. God blessed him with good children.

I wonder if we can see something like this happen in Malaysia, which also happen to be an Islamic country?

I wonder whether we can change our mindset in being more liberalized and more disciplined in thinking.

I wonder if we can see leader that behave like a human not like a monkey. (See parliamentary seating.)

I wonder of we can see or have a leader in Malaysia that knows the meaning to be a leader.
