Oops, faulse alarm! Actually it is only a concert by Stacy in titled 'Sambutan Hari Krismas Stacy Frenz bersama Stacy' to be held at Restoran Atlantis, Jalan Bundusan beginning @ 6 pm today.

German Technology Vs China Technology

I just love to watch this video clips that my Dad have just shown to me. This is called German Tech Vs. China Tech in the sense that when parking their vehicles, they do have this kind of technology. I would rather call this as German Tech Vs. Kung Fu. Cheers....

As I have said before in my previous posting a couple of days ago, I went to Velvet and Rich wedding reception at the grand ballroom, Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa last night with my brother & sister and of course my parent and guest what, Farhan, Marsha and also Felix were there to celebrate. The wedding nuptial was done at the garden just outside the grand ballroom of the Resort & Spa.

My Brother Evan was so excited

My brother was so excited he was already thinking of going to Velvet & Rich wedding celebration tomorrow at Tanjung Aru..... He even asked the doctor whether he is allowed to do the swimming come this sunday for our cousins birthday party at Water World theme park, Bukit Padang and you guys want to know why he was so excited? You see this......

Velvet is getting married

I've heard that Ms. Velvet is going to get married come friday with Rich. I will upload photos when times is right. Ta..ta..

1000 Hit Counter

Wow, I hit the 1000 hit counter today in 6 months.

So Excited

Last night as promised by my dad, we went to see the Madagascar movie @ 1Borneo and of course, we were so excited.

School Holiday

Tomorrow I won't be going to school until 5th Januari 2009 and am sure every single school student knows that. All what I'm thinking now is where and what am gonna be doing during christmas time.

My Daddy was so Excited

We went to see movie last night and I tell you what, my daddy was so...so excited. I've never seen my daddy being so excited than last night. He said "wow, after more than 10 years, I finally went to see movie inside a cinema". The movie was about this James Bond's Quantum of Solace. Among the movie that were being played yesterday are Madagascar, High School Musical etc. and my brother and sister including myself were hoping we would be able to see one of those but my daddy's choice is the oo7 James Bond movie.....alamak.

Tomorrow's date is very significant to me

Tomorrow which is 11 November is very significant date for me. I remember this date b'cos on that day my grandfather passed away at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital due to kidney failure. Coincidentally, this date is also my late grandmother's brother [Rev. fr. Thomas Makajil] anniversary as a priest. It happen so fast I didn't even know what went wrong on that day. On one point, we were on our way to the church to attend the mass for our Rev. fr.'s anniversary cum dinner celebration. On the other, my daddy received a call and that's it. We were sent to my auntie's house and my daddy together with my mummy went to the QEH and not long from that we received the bad news. That's why I will never forget this date. Happy anniversay to my moing [Rev. fr.] and I pray that my grandfather will always be with the lord in Heaven. May God bless him always.

Alive & Kicking

Never ever think that we move out from the house just because we are coward or scared or afraid from anything or something like that. It's because we move out from there to show our "PROTEST". That's right, we move out in protest of your wrong doing! If we don't move, it will show that what ever you had done to us is all right, nothing harm done. That's why we move out. We are human who have our own dignity. Ya right, you have your right to do that..... but my advise is 'be carefull with your daughter 'Anne Gil' because she is the one who created this mess. She is capable of lying.... if nobody tells lies this thing will not happen at all'. My goodness! your teenage daughter verbally bullying things like 'Kau Diam!' and telling us to move out of the house and yet accusing us that we are the one telling her that. Have you ever notice my daughter's hand, she scratched my daughter's hand and yet you asked us what have we done to your own daughter. There must be one person that is telling lies or there might be one person who persuade to do so. Out of nothing, she tells you lies that make us like a culprits and that's it, that's all what happened, nothing more nothing less. I'm writting this now not to seek sympathy from anybody.... rest assured I will set this thing as "so be it" and let's just see what happen in the near future. For us life must go on and we are alive and kicking......aramai ti....

Happy Deepavali

Next week but it's ok, I want to be the first to greet Happy Deepavali to all my visitors, readers and friends from all over Sabah.

I Salute Bro. Rayner Bisius

I salute this fella. My dad says I know this fella from Kg. Sugud, Penampang. At least there is one that is going to be ordained as a deacon from our own village and of course I feel good about it. Rayner Nigel Bisius have been accepted by Archbishop John Lee to be ordained by him to the diaconate on December 6 at Sacred Heart Cathedral Kota Kinabalu at 9:00 am.

Suit against God

Anyone who dare to sue God. Luckily God never reveal the home address (have time read here).

Masalah Pilipin Lagi di Sabah

Tatkala membaca berita New Sabah Times hari ini saya berasa sedih bila terbaca petikan tersebut (sila baca sini). Wahahai, bilalah masalah pilipin di Sabah nih akan hapus. Ada berita yang mengatakan orang-orang Pilipin ini masih jual rokok di merata-rata tempat terutama di Bandaraya, Bandar dan Pekan di segala pelusuk negeri Sabah sehingga menyebabkan ada kakitangan DBKK yang cedera terpaksa jait entah berapa jahitan, ada yang sudah beli Mykad, sudah jadi Taiko, sudah jadi businesswoman, ada juga yang jadi pembohong dan pelacur dan perebut lelaki orang malah ada yang sudah berani mengusir penduduk Sabah.......? Wakakak.... orang tempatan sedar lah sikit, jangan bersekongkol dengan orang-orang seperti ini, nanti sudah terlambat! padah nanti....

Apa yang saya ingat dalam beberapa tahun kebelakangan ini, setiap kali ada perayaan H.raya Aid., maka disitu lah krjaan beria-ia atau sibuk-sibuk hantar pilipin ini pulang ke negara mereka. Tidak tahulah apa tujuan mereka dihantar balik mungkin untuk berya. Tetapi bilamana perayaan sudah lepas, mereka pun balik masuk semula seperti yang dilaporkan oleh New Sabah Times.

40th Day in Loving Memory

Tomorrow would be my late uncle 40th days in loving memory prayer at Kg. Sugud, Penampang residence. All uncles, aunties, friends and relatives are invited to join us for the prayer at 11.30 am and lunch thereafter.

GREETINGS

Selamat Hariraya, maaf Zahir dan Batin to all my visitors, readers and friends from all over Sabah.

LIAR OF THE YEAR AWARD

Here, I want to post about the award I've given to not many person in this World or Sabah, Malaysia in particular but to the only "2 persons" which I think deserve it better than other contestants. The award which I'm awarding is none other than "The Liar of the Year award". But first allow me to describe the meaning in lenght, what a Lier meant in my finding in the internet media.

A lie (also called prevarication), is a type of deception in the form of an untruthful statement, especially with the intention to deceive others, often with the further intention to maintain a secret or reputation, protect someone's feelings or to avoid a punishment. To lie is to state something that is false with the intention that it be taken for the truth by oneself or someone else. A liar is a person who is lying, who has previously lied, or who tends by nature to lie repeatedly.

Lying is typically used to refer to deceptions in oral or written communication.^{[citation needed]} Other forms of deception, such as disguises or forgeries, are generally not considered lies, though the underlying intent may be the same. However, even a true statement can be considered a lie if the person making that statement is doing so to deceive. In this situation, it is the intent of being untruthful rather than the truthfulness of the statement itself that is considered.

Classification

Types of lies

The various types of lies include the following:

Fabrication

A fabrication is a lie told when someone submits a statement as truth, without knowing for certain whether or not it actually is true. Although the statement may be possible or plausible, it is not based on fact. Rather, it is something made up - or it is a misrepresentation of the truth.
Note: it is entirely possible (and common) for one to fabricate a lie and believe it.
Examples of fabrication: "The dog ate my homework", or "I did unplug the iron".

Bald-faced lie

A bald-faced (or barefaced, or boldfaced) lie is one which is told when it is obvious to all concerned that it is a lie. For example, a child who has chocolate all around his mouth and denies that he has eaten any chocolate is a bald-faced liar.

Lying by omission

One lies by omission by omitting an important fact, deliberately leaving another person with a misconception. Lying by omission includes failures to correct pre-existing misconceptions. A husband may tell his wife he was out at a store, which is true, but lie by omitting the fact that he also visited his mistress, although it is disputable whether or not this is actually a lie. In most cases, the person has not directly denied a truth, but merely omitted some part of what transpired.

Lie-to-children

A lie-to-children is a lie, often a platitude which may use euphemism(s), which is told to make an adult subject acceptable to children. A common example is "The stork brought you" (in reference to childbirth).

White lie

A white lie would cause no discord if it were uncovered, and offers some benefit to the liar, the hearer, or both. White lies are often used to avoid offense, such as telling someone that you think that their new outfit looks good, when you actually think that it is a horrible excuse for an outfit. In this case, the lie is told to avoid the harmful realistic implications of the truth. As a concept, it is largely defined by local custom and cannot be clearly separated from other lies with any authority. As such, the term may have differing meanings in different cultures. Lies which are harmless (but told for no reason) are generally called white lies.

Noble lie

A noble lie is one which would normally cause discord if it were uncovered, but which offers some benefit to the liar and assists in an orderly society, therefore potentially beneficial to others. It is often told to maintain law, order and safety. A noble lie usually has the effect of helping an elite maintain power.

Emergency lie

An emergency lie is a strategic lie told when the truth may not be told because, for example, harm to a third party would result. For example, a neighbour might lie to an enraged husband about the whereabouts of his unfaithful wife, because said husband might reasonably be expected to inflict physical injury should he encounter his wife in person. Alternatively, an emergency lie could denote a (temporary) lie told to a second person because of the presence of a third.

Perjury

Perjury is the act of lying or making verifiably false statements on a material matter under oath or affirmation in a court of law, or in any of various sworn statements in writing. Perjury is a crime, because the witness has sworn to tell the truth and, for the credibility of the court to remain intact, witness testimony must be relied on as truthful.

Bluffing

Pretending to have a capability or intention which one does not actually possess. Bluffing is an act of deception which is rarely seen as immoral, because it takes place in the context of a game where this kind of deception is consented to in advance by the players. For instance, a gambler who deceives other players into thinking he has different cards to those which he really holds, or an athlete who indicates he will move left and then actually dodges right, is not considered to be lying. In these situations, deception is accepted and indeed expected as a tactic.

Misleading

A misleading statement is one where there is no outright lie, but there still remains the purpose of making someone believe in an untruth.

Dissembling

"Dissembling" is a polite term for lying, though some might consider it a reference to merely misleading. It is usually considered to be a euphemism for lying.

Exaggeration

An exaggeration occurs when the most fundamental aspect(s) of a statement is true, but only to a certain degree. An example of this sort of lie is when someone says they are so hungry they could eat a horse.

Jocose lies

Jocose lies are those which are meant in jest, and are usually understood as such by all present parties. Teasing and sarcasm are examples. A more elaborate instance is seen in storytelling traditions which are present in some places, where the humour comes from the storyteller's insistence that he or she is telling the absolute truth, despite all evidence being to the contrary (i.e. tall tale). There is debate about whether these are "real" lies, and different philosophers hold different views (see below).

Promotion lies

Advertisements often contain statements which are incredible, such as "We are always happy to give a refund", or exaggerated predictions such as "You will love our new product".

Belief systems

It is alleged^[1] that some belief systems may find lying to be justified. Leo Tolstoy is cited^[2] as describing religious institutions as "the product of deception [and] lies for a good purpose".

Augustine's taxonomy of lies

Augustine of Hippo wrote his book De Mendacio "Of Lying" as part of his work: "Retractions" ^[3] in 395 AD. He had previously written two other books on the subject: a "Book on Lying" and "Against Lying". In "Of Lying" he writes that he is reconciling his two previous works, and addressing the great question of lying, which he felt was an urgent need of his time. He began: "Magna quæstio est de Mendacio". From his text, it can be derived that St Augustine divided lies into eight categories, listed in order of descending severity:

• Lies in religious teaching.
• Lies that harm others and help no one.
• Lies that harm others and help someone.
• Lies told for the pleasure of lying.
• Lies told to "please others in smooth discourse."
• Lies that harm no one and that help someone.
• Lies that harm no one and that save someone's life.
• Lies that harm no one and that save someone's "purity."

Augustine believed that "jocose lies" are not, in fact, lies.

So, now, let me introduce to you the 2 person whom is a daughter & the mother (foreigner) whom deserve it well. Don't worry, I got thier picture well in my picture gallery and I will post the (link) later..... for the public to see for themself.......cheers.

Budak Mentah Cuba Bermain Psycho

Baru-baru ini ketika musim cuti sekolah iaitu pada 16 Ogos hingga 23 Ogos 2008, saya dengan abang dan adik perempuan saya dan juga beberapa saudara terdekat dan rapat serta saudara dari LD berkumpul di rumah datuk saya dengan harapan dapat menghabiskan cuti tersebut demi merapatkan tali persaudaraan antara kami dan juga bertukar-tukar fikiran sambil bermain game dan lain-lain. Pada mulanya, kami adakan acara retreat dengan cara bermalam bersama di luar rumah menggunakan khemah. Memang seronok kerana dapat menikmati udara segar pada waktu malam dan pagi yang mana jarang-jarang kami lakukan sebelum ini dan menatapi bintang-bintang yang berkelip-kelip di ruang angkasa.

Namun, kesoronokan musim cuti pada kali ini bertukar wajah apabila salah seorang daripada ahli keluarga saya (anti saya sebenarnya) mula pandai bermain ilmu jiwa. Terkejut saya bilamana saya dituduh menghalau beliau dari rumah datuk saya walhal beliau lah yang menghalau saya dan adik saya dari rumah datuk saya yang saya sayangi itu. Beliau amat mudah mempengaruhi datuk serta anti saya yang berada di KL (yang hanya dengar sebelah pihak sahaja) bahawa saya lah orang yang mengeluarkan kata-kata kesat tersebut sehingga menyebabkan datuk saya yang tidak tahu perkara sebenar itu mempercayai pembohongan beliau. Apabila datuk saya sampai ke rumah dari timur Sabah, beliau dengan lantang menengking dan menegur ibu saya mengenai perkara tersebut. Untuk pengetahuan, ibu saya adalah jenis yang tidak suka bercakap panjang iaitu (straight to the point punya orang) menolak dakwaan dan teguran datuk saya dan memberitahu beliau perkara sebenar lalu datuk saya pun terdiam seketika (mungkin beliau baru sedar keadaan sebenar kerana selama ini beliau hanya mendengar sebelah pihak iaitu seseorang yang sedang mengamalkan ilmu jiwa, pendek kata mastermind) dan kemudian kata-katanya pun bertukar tune. Saya harap beliau memahami bahawa anti saya ini melakukan pembohongan yang amat serius dan ketara. Dulu pun beliau pernah menuduh saudara saya dari LD sehingga menyebabkan perbalahan keluarga buat seketika waktu. Beliau (anti) ini amat licik sebenarnya semasa berkata-kata di depan datuk saya namun beliau kaku apabila berdepan dengan ibubapa saya, di mana beliau sentiasa bersembunyi di biliknya apabila beliau mendapati ibubapa saya sudah berada di rumah.

Dalam hal yang berkaitan, ibubapa saya telah menganggap perkara itu sudah berlalu dan sudah tidak relevan lagi kerana bapa saya sudah mendapat kepastian dari datuk saya yang menyatakan bahawa kami boleh tinggal di rumah datuk saya sebelum beliau berangkat balik ke timur Sabah. Walau bagaimanapun, apa yang lebih menyedihkan ibu saya, ialah ketika menerima SMS dari anti saya di KL (entah dari mana laporan CNN yang beliau baca - mungkin juga dari mastermind) yang amat menyebelahi dan menuduh ibu saya perkara yang sebaliknya. Beliau bilang, perkara budak-budak, tetapi bukankah anti saya yang bongkak itu yang sentiasa bersembunyi di bilik itu sudah belajar di tingkatan 3 dan berusia belasan tahun dibandingkan dengan saya yang baru berusia 9 tahun dan adik saya yang baru akan menjangkau 7 tahun tidak lama lagi. Tidak kah beliau (anti KL) sedar bahawa ibu saya belumpun mengatakan apa-apa dengan anti (bongkak) itu, namun sudah beliau menuduh yang bukan-bukan dan jump into conclusion terhadap ibu saya. Mengapa beliau tidak menasihati anti (bongkak) saya yang mencederakan tangan (lihat gambar) dan menolak kepala saya beberapa kali. Ini sudah mendera namanya. Saya ini adalah manusia dan bukan binatang. Saya amat kagum dengan ibu saya kerana masih dan boleh bersabar dengan kejadian itu walau pun tuduhan demi tuduhan dilempar tanpa asas. Moga ibu saya mendapat berkat dari Tuhan yang amat Penyayang. Bagi bapa saya pula, beliau begitu marah tetapi tersenyum dan ada masa beliau ketawa terbahak-bahak dengan perkara itu. Beliau memberitahu kami jika sekiranya dia (anti bongkak/twister) masih budak seperti didakwa oleh anti (KL) itu benar, bagaimana pula dia sudahpun pandai bermain API dimana bagi bapa saya adalah amat dangerous dan perlu diambil perhatian segera demi mengelak kejadian yang lebih serious . Satu pertanyaan saya ialah apakah yang akan berlaku bilamana usianya sudah menjangkau umur dewasa. Lagi pandai main ular kah.........lol...

Dalam kejadian yang sama, bapa saya hampir melaporkan kepada pihak berkuasa mengenai kelakuannya yang mendera saya sehingga menyebabkan kecederaan pada tangan saya (lihat gambar) namun setelah menerima nasihat dari ibu saya, bapa saya mengabaikan perkara tersebut kerana kecederaan itu tidaklah begitu mendesak. Walau pun demikian, bapa meminta saya memberitahunya sekiranya kejadian seumpama itu berulang lagi dan tidak akan teragak-agak untuk melaporkan kepada pihak berkuasa termasuklah polis. Bapa saya bilang, sepanjang usianya, beliau belum pernah berjumpa atau terjumpa dengan orang (budak sekolah belasan tahun) yang pandai twisting/main ular perkara sebenar. Inilah kali pertama beliau terserampak dengan orang yang sedemikian namun berselindung dengan kuasa “TWISTER” nya. Mungkin terlalu menonton drama atau Pilipin punya series?.....lol..memang pun. Maklum lah kaum kerabat Corazon C. Aquino pula nun dari selatan Phil........ (part 2 akan bersambung pada musim cuti sekolah November-December)……….cheers…..

Magic Show (pt.2)

Finally, I've found the part 2 of the magic show that I've promised.

What a Psycho Sign!!!

I post this one not because I like the banana tree or the concrete wall in the picture. It is just the manner in which the owner of this house put a sign “Rosak” at the steel door to his house that got my attention. Who in this world would care if you put a sign like that to the door if it is not in order. To my conclusion, I think it is only a sign to tell the would be thief or something like that not to try their luck. This scene can be seen at the traffic light near the KK Specialist Centre in Luyang, Kota Kinabalu. I have also seen a sign similar to this one like “Beware! Crazy dog” or “Beware!!!! Anjing Mahal RM1000!!!

Awesome magician

When I review my post dated 12 July, I realize that I did promise to post the part 2 of my post in titled Magic Show (pt. 1). But before that I would like to post this one first which is also related to magic while I am looking for the part 2 which I had promised. Happy watching!!!!

QEH staff drowned

I am sure all of you have already heard and read about a Queen Elizabeth Hospital's staff who fell into the monsoon drain and drowned early Tuesday just opposite the hospital (read here).

I am not going to tell a story regarding 49-year-old the late Gandat @ Richard Gapil, but would like to highlight here about the attitude of some people who just simply park their vehicles by the road side to see the situation there like what we see in the picture and though a few warning was issued to the car owners to remove their car by the traffic police who was there to do his job, it went unheeded. The traffic police's (circled red) warning somehow did not scare them and this force the traffic police to issue a summoned to them.

Flash Flood, Flash Flood & Flash Flood

This is the view of the flood at Tanaki/Inobong/Kibambangan Road in Penampang district after about less than 10 hours of heavy rain from yesterday evening. The most affected are the morning students and workers from these kampung who use the only route to go to school nearby and work places. Most could not go to work and was force to go back home in vain. Some was trapped from going in and out since last night and was seen taking a sleep inside their cars. Only those who have 4X4 vehicle and who dare to take the risk of getting their vehicle's interior wet could pass like what you see in the pict.2.

This was not the first time this thing happen. In my acknowledgement, everytime there is a heavy rain, this situation happened. I crossed my finger that this thing won't happen in the near future especially when there's an exam going to be held at school or an expecting mother is going in labor soon and etc.

I hope something concrete is being done by the relevant authority to prevent this situation from happening again.

The villagers waiting in vain









The dare 4x4 vehicle almost could not pass

Foam Party Disaster

First aid treatment was not applied as the hotel where three people died at foam party did not have a doctor after 18.00.

Foam party disaster causing the death of three people revealed the fact that the hotels in Antalya, Turkey do not have doctors working after 18.00 hours. As the hotel did not have doctor at that hour, first aid was not applied and the first medical intervention took place only 20 minutes later.

Unlimited chain of negligence

The fact about the foam party disaster where three people died in Antalya: "Doctors do not work after 18.00 hours at the hotel. Foam machine is not defected, operator error caused the disaster."

Foam party disaster which took place at Venezia Palace Deluxe Resort Hotel in Kundu Antalya revealed the fact that the hotels in the region do not have doctors after 18.00 hours. It is detected that the people who got electric shock from the foam machine had the first medical intervention only after 20 minutes and the injured were taken to hospital 30-45 minutes later. The ministry of culture and tourism started an investigation on the hotel and machine operator Tuncay Duran and party organizer Element company owner Erol Kabaca were sent to the court for "causing death because of carelessness and negligence."

Sabah prone to quake aftershocks, reveals seismic study

Sabah has the potential for experiencing earthquakes based on the regular aftershocks from tremors in neighbouring countries.

Deputy Science, Technology and Innovation Minister Fadillah Yusof told the Dewan Negara that a seismic study by the Malaysian Science Academy (MSA) and other information found that the earthquake expected in Sabah and Sarawak would be small to moderate in magnitude.

Fadillah said the study concluded that Sabah had the potential for regular earthquakes of 4.06 magnitude on the Richter scale as there were several active fault lines, namely Mensaban, Crocker, Tabin and Lobou.

Replying to a supplementary question from Wan Ramlah, Fadillah said information on earthquakes would be channelled via RTM and SMSed to all TV and radio stations.

“We also have an early warning system in case of an earthquake or tsunami with 14 stations nationwide, with three more being built, and two buoys already in place.”

Fadillah added that 14 cameras were installed along beaches with 13 more being installed, making a total of 27 cameras.

Wajah Tong Sampah di Pekan Donggongon

This is how dustbin looks like di Pekan Donggongon. Tidak pernah penuh and the garbage collector do not need to collect the garbage at all. There are so many here in Donggongon like that one in the picture but I only manage to snap this one since I almost throw inside a can of empty drink.

Our Visit to Keningau and Tenom

Here I am at the far right (in red shirt), my sister Eve, my bro. Evan and of course my Dad & Mum.















One of the view at Taman Pertanian Lagud Seberang, Tenom.

We went there on the 2nd. & 3rd. June this year. Initially, my bro. Evan intended to follow our Sunday School group's visit to Hot Spring (National Park) at Ranau, but then my dad suddenly pop up a suggestion that why not we go to other places like Keningau and Tenom. My mum of course would like to go there since she never been there before. So, off we go there early in morning and reached Keningau at noon, stayed in Keningau at a leading hotel and so early in the morning at 3rd. June, off we go to Taman Pertanian, Tenom.

Definitely not buah Bambangan and don't ask me cos' I also don't know.
