Human used to live with dinosaurs?

There has been a lot of evidences that human might have lived with dinosaurs in ancient time. That's pretty interesting!

All evidences were found from ancient paintings such as human riding on creatures that look like dinosaurs and etc.

Also, it is believed that in ancient China there was dragon! The dragon has 9 children. Each child possess different outlook and characteristics! For e.g. some of them like eating very much, some of them like drinking very much, some of them like fire very much, some of them like fighting very much and so on. Now some scholars said that these 9 children of dragon are most likely dinosaurs!

In one ancient China scripture "Shan Hai Jing" (山海经) even talks about dragon transport for human! These saying matches some legends that ancient emperors of China normally travelled by riding on dragons!

Also, a lot of Chinese ancient legends are strange to modern people like us. For e.g. there is a saying that Dragon is actually a spaceship. It spits fire, it has scale, it can fly! Does not it sound like spaceship? The fire to push spaceship forward, its scale to cool its body down, and it flies!

Well all these are yet to be proved with more supporting archeological findings!

推广华文惠及世界!

看到了一些外国人在中国生活的相关文章,就觉得中国地位着实提高了,吸引了世界各地各色人种来淘金。

这不但能促进中国与各国的文化交流,更重要的是能推广华文的国际地位!就像每一个到美国谋生的外国人需懂得英语一样,如果每个去中国的外国人都努力学习华文,那么以华文为母语者必能得利!就像英美澳纽加等国人无需浪费时间资源学习外语般!善用剩下的时间资源来促进社会发展!国家将更迅速强大!

想想,无需学习外语将为大家省下了多少的时间!利用母语来学习各科知识更为可靠实用!

当然,外国人既要到中国谋生或吃喝玩乐(黄赌毒等),当然也要融入中国社会,努力学习汉语华语!!!

期待更多外国人把汉语当成首席外语!这将显示了中华文化的软实力、巧实力!

Terrible Project, Terrible Day

Bad news hit me last Thursday, i would have to help out in a Proof of Concept(POC) project for a famous Telco company in Malaysia!

I went to the meeting place in the morning. Met with new teammates. Obviously everyone was still trying to adapt to this adhoc situation.

On the first day, I was spending the whole day getting help from a few experts to set up the development and testing environment. They helped me to install IBM Websphere Portal Server, IBM Rational Software Architect for Websphere and etc. All these are resource hungry giants. They made the computer to run so slow! Also, in order to make sure i am developing on the same environment, they migrated their Virtual Machine Image to another laptop that has higher spec than my computer.

I started building simple stuff the second day. After several trials and errors, i managed to build and test run the first portlet! This is my first ever portlet that i built in my life! I was excited and i thought mission completed. Well, demand is never enough. I was assigned a few more tasks and my attendence was expected the next day.

On Friday the POC initiator expected to wrap up everything so that the sales team is able to present a nice thing to the potential client! I was thinking things were done so hurrily the quality will surely does not meet client's expectation. In the end i managed to built 4 portlets: some with static data, some queries data from the DB2 database. During the migration of my war file to the core laptop which one of the technical sales guy is going to use to present to the client, i was facing some database connection issue. Well that was easily solved. After that i was asked to enhance the UI on the portlet. Man! what is this! The scope of work will never end?! It's too much!

I kept quiet and finally completed my tasks at 2am in the morning. After that the technical sales guy was able to ping from A machine's VM to B machine's VM! Double good news! He said i stayed to help and that boost his morale and actually i did not find out the solution. It's him who found it.

I learnt a lot of things in this POC project. I learned how to use Rational Software Architect for Websphere to build portlet. I learned how to deploy a portlet using Websphere Portal Server. Also i have explored a few good features in the WPS. I also learned a lot of things on Virtual Machine. The idea of using Virtual Machine is cool. The Virtual Machine helps each developer to counter the barrier of different development & testing environment. It can reduce unexpected events especially due to environment setup when you are demoing your application to your client!

My teammates also shared some valuable stories with me. For e.g. the technical sales guy told me this is also his worst ever project in our company. Normally some other POC projects are simple. I was considered very unfortunate to get involved in this.

Anyway, i don't really like this kind of ad-hoc call up for help. I hope this is my first time and last time doing this shit. At least please tell me one week earlier, and also let me know the overall plan so that i can get ready.

I still prefer a plan. Hurry can't help win a client.

公平的政治制度

来探讨一个公平的政治制度,有效的分配利益于所有的团体,而非只盲目的服从多数人的利益。

现在的中国大陆最适合发明及实践这一种优良制度,一该数千年来纷纷扰扰、战争不断的历史,全民得利,万象更新!

民主制度当然是一个很好的选择,又很实用,因有美国为例。

最重要的是共产党政府能允许各利益方如士农工商等成立各自的团体以与政府定期讨论各自的问题并检讨政策,这样共产党即能维持统治利益而人民也有所得,何乐而不为呢?该以经济为主,因为人人要的还不就是安居乐业!看看新加坡,选举永远只是个幌子,李氏父子统治了数十年,有人反抗么?我跟你说其反对力量微弱无比。人民乐于现况则不理民主与否,那些不能解决吃拉问题的东西关我屁事?

政治制度公平,大多数人都有所得,谁会阻止你继续当政府?!

馬來西亞華教元老沈慕羽先生過世!

沈老先生, 一路走好!

看这

沈老先生这一生为马来西亚华文教育打拼,甚至为了捍卫华文教育而遭马华工会开除及后期被送入内安法令扣留营也在所不惜!

他于96岁高龄而走,也算是一大喜事了!

我深深为沈老的气节折服,他乃我们马来西亚华裔子弟的榜样!他的精神值得学习。

我们该永远悼念他!

在马来西亚金马士(gemas)已有一个沈慕羽纪念馆,我打算在下一次回乡时拜访此馆。那馆就在我回家乡的路途中,对我而言非常方便。

如您也想参观,可以看这里

Shame on Jamaluddin Radzi & Osman Mohd Jailu

These 2 guys! Are not they shameful of their deed? How could they face the people that have selected them as ADUN!!!

Well, i think after this 'politic frog' incident, the corruption charge against them will be dropped!

Someone would order the Anti Corruption Agency to drop the charge against these 2 guys after this!

Dirty!!!

Disappointing!!!

中国-美国新政府的新敌!?

奥巴马上台后,处处对中国呛声!

首先是声称中国政府刻意压低人民币汇率以利其出口。

其次还有各种针对包括人权、西藏问题等等的攻击。

奥巴马政府也呼吁伊斯兰世界别把美国当作敌人,释放出浓浓的善意。

看来,奥巴马政府要转换策略,把首席敌人从伊斯兰极端恐怖分子换成中国了。

这真令人百思不得其解,中国共产党政府虽然还有很多缺点,却秉持和平崛起的政策,欲维护国内政权唯恐不及,哪还会去侵害美国的利益。

反而我觉得伊斯兰教极端分子才是全球人类的公敌!这堆人想建立一个大伊斯兰教帝国!真可怕!该诛之!该诛之!
