Aifon Tri-gee-ass

Finally, I am getting this baby. Honestly speaking, it’s for my company of course. I ordered the phone like 2 weeks ago, sharp. Yeah, it was on my birthday which I ordered it. The guy said something like I might be getting it about two to four weeks. I got an SMS earlier in the afternoon about this thing and immediately rushed to Berjaya Times Square to pick it up. Oh, I made my order there because I was lurking around Lowyat Plaza at that time to find some Macbooks. So, yeah, around 3 PM I drove from Bangi to BTS with my friend, Amin. As we arrived at the Maxis Center there, I saw something funny which was the ‘System Offline’ notice on their desks. The grandeur service provider in Malaysia was having problem with their connection, for all over places, as the dude there said. We had to wait. While waiting, I went to Borders to look around at those mango (which eventually I bought some later). Initially, that guy said something like we might come back there around an hour later or so. But after wasting some 20 minutes at Borders, we went back to the that Maxis outlet. Still, System Offline da yo. But not long after that, that guy at the counter called me (if I am not mistaken, his name was Ahmad Hashir or something like that). He said, he can process my iPhone 3GS now. Well, it did took sometime and finally I have iPhone 3GS. At the same time, I guess that their system didn’t ‘offline’ but simply they have slow connection or some similar technical issues because I saw some of the guys could operate the stuffs albeit slow.

Mazar-e Moe

By maskawaih, November 22, 2009 12:02 AM

According to Sheikh Al-Wikibidia, Mazar-e or Mazari is a Persian word which means ’shrine’. The most renown shrine in Afghanistan is Mazar-e Sharif which means ‘Noble Shrine’. A famous place for Shia’ Muslims. But my post today is not about that infamous shrine at all. It’s about the Moe Shrine in Japan. Only in Japan (because every weird stuff exists in this world is coming from there).

Mazar-e Moe

Mazar-e Moe

This Moe Shrine is basically just like any normal Shinto shrines in Japan. There are priests and maids who perform prayer ceremonies as well as other religious stuffs. Wait a minute… did I say Maid? Instead of normal miko girls who actually served with the shrine, this Moe Shrine has it’s own specialty that replacing the miko outfit with maid outfit. This is totally fabulous for those who have a fetishism with maids (including me and I haven’t created a gallery for that yet). Visitors may have taking pictures with them too.

GoMobile 2009

GoMobile 2009

GoMobile 2009

It’s that time again. The mobile phone fair that surely will attract many visitors to come over and the convention will be at Kuala Lumpur Convention Center. If you remember about the previous entry of GoMobile last year, it was held at PWTC there. There were about 80,000 visitors back then and for this year, they’re targeting for 100,000 visitors. Well, for KLCC being bigger place plus it’s the center of Kuala Lumpur, that might be possible. I will be there again as well. Though, for this time, I will be under MSC Malaysia (last time was for UTeM). My company gets a placement inside MSC Malaysia’s booth. In all, there are 5 companies will be presenting under the MSC Malaysia banner including mine. Since this is something like PC Fair, one might be expecting a bunch of mobile broadband pushers lingering around the hall and shove up people with pamphlets. According to rules that I heard recently, a company or group that rented a booth may only do their stuffs within their booth’s boundary. They have to pay to the GoMobile if their banners or bunting were outside of booth as each square inch of the area has price. A single pusher lingering around the area has price too. The price for outside the hall is said to be RM 350 per person (not sure if it’s for a day or all 3 days) and more expensive if it’s inside the hall. If this is true (well, I heard it from a spokesperson), it may reduce the number of pushers. Heh, you might think pusher sounds so negative just like those drug dealers but yeah, I hate them anyway.

GoMobile 2009:

  • 23-25 October 2009
  • Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre
  • 23 – 24 October (Fri & Sat): 11 am – 9 pm
  • 25 October (Sun) : 11 am – 8 pm

See you there.

iPhone Training at UTeM

By maskawaih, September 3, 2009 1:25 PM

Last week, my colleagues and I went to UTeM to give some sort of hands on training about developing applications on iPhone and iPod as well. It’s 3-day iPhone training. Usually for giving a training like Adobe Flash, one requires certificate or something equivalent but for Apple Developer, such thing doesn’t exist. Well, Apple tries to make thing easier for people to learn and spread to the others. So, three of us, including Reza and Hazmin, went to Melaka on Wednesday morning just after sahur.

It's pretty cloudy last week in Melaka

Since UTeM is where I am currently undergoing my Masters Degree research, the attendees were people that some of them I knew. Actually, faculties and departments in UTeM have been moved to the new main campus (previously my faculty, FTMK, was at Cubic building or formerly known as Industrial Campus).

52nd

1Malaysia

1Malaysia

It’s Malaysia’s 52nd Independence Day anniversary. I am quite patriotic about my country tho honestly speaking I lack in a sense of nationalism. Anyway, it’s good to have some passion such as this as people today tend to have something like globalization and things like that. Truly, that’s not really a brand new idea. It’s been there even before the birth of Jesus, long before that actually. Yet, racial differences still there up until now. It’s not a matter who’s the first to set foot on the soil, don’t you think? Anyway, I watched 1957 Hati Malaya movie last night. For me, it’s a nice movie. While some of scenes kinda rushed but it covered several important part such as the idea of unification with Indonesia for Melayu Raya, the differences between H.S. Lee and Tan Cheng Lock, Dato’ Onn and Tunku Abdul Rahman, British’s Malayan Union and many more. Since I’ve been reading biography of Dato’ Onn, it was his idea to create a unified party that consists various races into the original UMNO then the idea actually being materialized during the alliances of UMNO-MCA some after he leaved the party. Since then. we all know the things happened from that day until today and more stuffs. We can talk much about it but I’d rather not. Datuk Seri Najib’s idea of 1Malaysia is not really that new to me. Just something old that being added with new name. One can say, it’s just a propaganda. However, it is important. The idea of Malaysia is integration between her people. We, Malaysians, are not gonna be like Indonesia where her people went through assimilation and ignoring cultures. Both have pros and cons tho I agree even after 50 years, it’s still not that mature enough. Yeah, both nations still having its own problems. Now for Malaysia, I am wishing more interrelationship between races and cultures. 1Malaysia doesn’t mean that you can build a religious site anywhere without the concern of the locals.

The Great Explosions

Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Hiroshima and Nagasaki

6th and 9th of August 1945 marked in the history of human civilizations as the invention of the weapon of mass destruction which unleashed upon the humanity itself. This was a result of nuclear weapon race between Americans and Germans in World War II. Albeit, Nazi Germany surrendered earlier before the Americans could finish up the construction of the bombs. Furthermore, they’re frustrated to know that the Germans had nothing for such thing as they’re already getting suppresses and pressures due to the war. The idea of the bombs was to be detonated upon the Germany but upon the fall of this European nemesis, the Allied forces switched their targets to the stubborn enemy in the Far East, Imperial Japan.
