Tip Untuk Temuduga
Pada hemat saya, adalah amat baik jika saya memberikan sedikit manfaat berkenaan kemahiran temuduga buat pengunjung terutamanya bagi mereka yang masih dan sedang bergelumang dengan dunia mencari pekerjaan dan temuduga.
Berdasarkan puluhan sesi mengendalikan temuduga semasa bertugas di industri korporat dan juga beberapa pengalaman rakan-rakan yang lain. Alhamdulillah, saya terlibat sebagai panel untuk menemuduga calon-calon yang punyai keputusan cemerlang seperti CGPA 3.5 ke atas, 'Mumtaz', 'First Class', 'Distinction' dan sebahagiannya mempunyai Ijazah Sarjana.
Malangnya, banyak kali saya dan rakan-rakan di sektor swasta dapati individu yang mempunyai kelayakan akademik cemerlang di Universiti tetapi ianya tidak banyak membantu calon semasa temuduga.
Saya bimbang degan fenomena kegagalan sistem peperiksaan di Universiti yang gagal melahirkan seorang yang kreatif, beryakinan serta berbakat. Selain dari pengalaman saya sendiri dan juga apa yang kerap saya dengari dari rakan-rakan, ada graduan cemerlang yang seperti 'batu' semasa interview dan ada juga yang langsung tidak mampu menjawab soalan panel yang berbentuk ujian emosi dan kreativiti menjawab. Mungkin kerana soalan itu tiada dalam silibus buku mereka agaknya.
Saya bimbang, munculnya graduan yang cemerlang atas kertas kerana kecekapannya menghafal silibus sahaja. Akhirnya, sekali dicuba di alam realiti, tersungkur jatuh dengan sekali cubaan sahaja. Kerana itu, bagi saya soalan peperiksaan perlu diolah dalam bentuk yang lebih praktical dan mementingkan kefahaman berbanding hafalan semata-mata.
Tidak Faham Konsep Kebebasan Media Dan Berhimpun Dalam Sistem Demokrasi
Perkara 1: Jelas Saudara KJ dan DN tidak faham bahawa hak untuk berkumpul adalah hak asasi semua rakyat di dalam sebuah Negara yang mengaku mengamalkan demokrasi. Kedua-dua KJ dan DN gagal memberikan alasan yang kukuh mengapa kekerasan terpaksa digunakan pada 10 November 2007.
Mereka gagal untuk memjustifikasi tindakan polis menggunakan air kimia dan gas pemedih mata untuk menyuraikan perkumpulan. Mereka gagal untuk menjusfikasi penggunaan kekerasan ke atas para demonstran. Mereka gagal menjustifikasi penangkapan lebih 80 peserta. Mereka gagal menjustifikasi tindakan polis mengepong Dataran Merdeka bagi menghalang peserta berkumpul di sana.
Pada waktu yang sama, Al Jazeera juga menunjukkan “footage” air kimia dan gas pemedih mata digunakan bagi menyuraikan peserta 10 November . Kedua-dua KJ dan DN gagal membuktikan Malaysia adalah sebuah Negara demokrasi, setelah secara jelas pihak Polis menggunakan kekerasan ke atas rakyat hanya kerana rakyat memilih untuk menyatakan perasaan mereka. Polis secara ganas memijak lutut seorang pemerhati yang tidak melawan dan tidak bersenjata sehingga lutut orang tersebut hancur serta terpaksa dibedah.
KJ juga cuba untuk menggunakan alasan peristiwa Batu Buruk sebagai alasan. Mungkin KJ terlupa bahawa di Batu Buruk orang awam telah ditembak dengan peluru hidup oleh pihak Polis. Seharusnya pihak Polis yang dipersalahkan kerana tempat tersebut telah dilangsungkan perhimpunan-perhimpunan besar sebelum ini tanpa apa-apa insiden. Sehingga kini kita masih tidak dimaklumkan tindakan keatas Polis yang menembak dan pembakar bendera Malaysia.
Perkara 2: KJ juga cuba mewarnakan perhimpunan 10 November sebagai perhimpunan pembangkang dan bukannya perhimpunan rakyat. Lupakah KJ bahawa pemimpin, ahli dan penyokong parti pembangkang adalah rakyat Malaysia juga? Mungkin KJ lupa bahawa lebih dari 35% rakyat Malaysia tiap2 kali pilihanraya mengundi parti yang lain dari Barisan Nasional.
Di dalam Negara Malaysia yang berpenduduk 27 juta orang, 35% adalah bersamaan hampir 10 juta rakyat Malaysia. Kalau dikira 10 juta pengundi bermakna kita bercakap tentang 3.5juta pengundi. Adakah 10 juta rakyat Malaysia atau 3.5 juta pengundi sewenang-wenangnya dinafikan hak mereka sedangkan mereka juga membayar cukai, tol dsbnya? Perkara ini menampakkan mentaliti anti demokrasi KJ dan UMNO/BN yang terdedah di dalam program tersebut.
Perkara 3: Persoalan kebebasan media juga telah diutarakan dalam perbahasan tersebut. Sdra Malik menyatakan fakta bahwa media di Malaysia memerlukan permit dari Kerajaan BN untuk diterbitkan atau beroperasi. Lantas, saudara KJ cuba untuk memberikan harapan kepada rakyat Malaysia bahawa kebebasan media akan diberikan kembali kepada pihak media dengan merujuk kepada ucapan Presiden UMNO di Perhimpunan Agung UMNO baru-baru ini.
Malangnya, Akta Cetak menunjukkan bahawa hak untuk mengoperasi akhbar atau apa2 bentuk media di Malaysia terletak di tangan Menteri dan tidak boleh dicabar hatta di dalam mahkamah. KJ tidak sedikit pun memberi apa-apa komen terhadap fakta ini. Tiada pernyataan jelas samada PM akan meminda Akta Cetak untuk mengizinkan mana-mana pihak mengoperasikan media. Tanpa komitmen ini, kenyataan PM baru2 ini tidak lebih dari retorika kosong dan tidak lebih dari wayang kulit, apatah lagi dibuat dalam forum yang salah.
Sekiranya kerajaan yang diterajui UMNO/BN benar2 ikhlas untuk mengembalikan kebebasan media di Malaysia, langkah pertama boleh dimulakan dengan mengizinkan PAS menerbitkan semula Harakah dua kali seminggu. Ini tidak memerlukan pindaan akta. Cuma sepucuk surat dari Menteri Dalam Negeri. Saya cabar KJ dan UMNO untuk membuktikan komitmen mereka terhadap kebebasan media. DN juga telah dimalukan apabila beliau cuba menafikan akhbar di Malaysia berat sebelah. Malang bagi DN apabila akhbar-akhbar yang terbit pada 11 November telah ditunjukkan kepada beliau sebagai bukti .
Perkara 4: KJ cuba memberi gambaran bahawa Kerajaan mendengar pandangan semua orang, khasnya SPR. Beliau lantas memberikan contoh-contoh beberapa perubahan yang telah dilakukan oleh SPR. KJ sedikit pun tidak menafikan bahawa SPR adalah sebuah badan yang tidak bebas dari pengaruh eksekutif.
Malang bagi KJ, tindakan beliau hanya membuktikan bahawa SPR tidak lebih dari sebuah badan kerajaan yang duduk di bawah cengkaman Jabatan Perdana Menteri. Ini bererti SPR tidak bebas dan SPR beroperasi seperti yang dikehendaki oleh Kerajaan Barisan Nasional.
Perkara 5: DN menyatakan bahwa sistem pentadbiran di Malaysia tidak perlu dirubah. Ia hanya perlu diperbaiki sahaja. Jelas DN cuba bermain dengan perkataan. Apa yang jelas pentadbiran Kerajaan BN mengandungi berbagai-bagai kepincangan dan kezaliman ke atas rakyat Malaysia. Sekiranya sistem di Malaysia putih bersih dari kelemahan, sudah tentu pelbagai ketirisan, kebocoran dan kerobohan, pelbagai indeks yang semakin merudum serta peristiwa penyuraian perhimpunan dengan kekerasan pada 10 November tidak berlaku.

Parents: "We have dreams too"
This story is about a man who tells how his booking
an air ticket for his father, his first flight,
brought emotions and made him realize that how much
we all take for granted when it comes to our parents.
"My parents left for our native place on Thursday and
we went to the airport to see them off. In fact, my
father had never traveled by air before, so I just
took this opportunity to make him experience the same.
In spite of being asked to book tickets by train, I
got them tickets on Lufthansa.
The moment I handed over the tickets to him, he was
surprised to see that I had booked them by air. The
excitement was very apparent on his
face, waiting for the time of travel. Just like a
school boy, he was preparing himself on that day and
we all went to the airport, right from using the
trolley for his luggage, the baggage check-in and
asking for window seat and waiting restlessly for the
security check-in to happen. He was thoroughly
enjoying himself and I, too, was overcome with joy
watching him experience all these things.
As they were about to go in for the security
check-in, he walked up to me with tears in his eyes
and thanked me. He became very emotional and
it was not as if I had done something great but the
fact that this meant a great deal to him.
When he said thanks, I told him there was no need to
thank me.
But later, thinking about the entire incident, I
looked back at my life.
As a child how many dreams our parents have made
come true. Without understanding the financial
situation, we ask for football, dresses, toys,
outings, etc. Irrespective of their affordability,
they have satisfied to all our needs. Did we ever
think about the sacrifices they had to make to
accommodate many of our wishes?
Did we ever say thanks for all that they have done
for us?
Same way, today when it comes to our children, we
always think that we should put them in a good school.
Regardless of the amount of donation, we will ensure
that we will have to give the child the best, theme
parks, toys, etc. But we tend to forget that our
parents have sacrificed a lot for our sake to see us
happy, so it is our responsibility to ensure that
their dreams are realized and what they failed to see
when they were young, it is our responsibility to
ensure that they experience all those and their life
is complete.
Many times, when my parents had asked me some
questions, I have actually answered back without
patience. When my daughter asks me something, I have
been very polite in answering. Now I realize how they
would have felt at those moments.
Let us realize that old age is a second childhood and
just as we take care of our children, the same
attention and same care need to be given to our
parents and elders.
Rather than my dad saying thank you to me, I would
want to say sorry for making him wait so long for this
small dream. I do realize how much he has
sacrificed for my sake and I will do my best to give
the best possible attention to all their wishes. Just
because they are old does not mean that they will have
to give up everything and keep sacrificing for their
grandchildren also. They have wishes, too."
Take care of our parents.
If you think this is worth reading, pls share it with
others too

Tree Man
Tree man 'who grew roots' may be cured
| An Indonesian fisherman who feared that he would be killed by tree-like growths covering his body has been given hope of recovery by an American doctor - and Vitamin A. Dede, now 35, baffled medical experts when warty "roots" began growing out of his arms and feet after he cut his knee in a teenage accident. The welts spread across his body unchecked and soon he was left unable to carry out everyday household tasks. Sacked from his job and deserted by his wife, Dede has been raising his two children - now in their late teens - in poverty, resigned to the fact that local doctors had no cure for his condition. To make ends meet he even joined a local "freak show", parading in front of a paying audience alongside victims of other peculiar diseases. Although supported by his extended family, he was often a target of abuse and ridicule in his rural fishing village. But now an American dermatology expert who flew out to Dede's home village south of the capital Jakarta claims to have identified his condition, and proposed a treatment that could transform his life.
After testing samples of the lesions and Dede's blood, Dr Anthony Gaspari of the University of Maryland concluded that his affliction is caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), a fairly common infection that usually causes small warts to develop on sufferers. Dede's problem is that he has a rare genetic fault that impedes his immune system, meaning his body is unable to contain the warts. The virus was therefore able to "hijack the cellular machinery of his skin cells", ordering them to produce massive amounts of the substance that caused the tree-like growths known as "cutaneous horns" on his hands and feet. Dede's counts of a key type of white blood cell are so low that Dr Gaspari initially suspected he may have the Aids virus. But tests showed he did not, and it became clear that Dede's immune condition was something far rarer and more mysterious. Warts aside, he had enjoyed remarkable good health throughout his life - which would not be expected of someone with a suppressed immune system - and neither his parents nor his siblings have shown signs of developing lesions. "The likelihood of having his deficiency is less than one in a million," Dr Gaspari told the Telegraph. Dr Gaspari, who became involved in the case through a Discovery Channel documentary, believes that Dede's condition can be largely cleared up by a daily doses of a synthetic form of Vitamin A, which has been shown to arrest the growth of warts in severe cases of HPV. "He won't have a perfectly normal body but the warts should reduce in size to the point where he could use his hands," Dr Gaspari said. "Over the course of three to six months the warts should be come smaller and fewer in number. He will be living a more normal life." The most resilient warts could then be frozen off and the growths on his hands and feet surgically removed. Dr Gaspari hopes to get the necessary drugs free of charge from pharmaceutical firms. They would then be administered by Indonesian doctors under his supervision. Still intrigued by the origins of Dede's peculiar immune condition, the doctor would like to fly him to the United States for further examination, but fears the financial and bureaucratic barriers would prove too difficult to overcome. "I would like to bring him to the US to run tests on where his immune condition has come from, but I would need funding and to get him a visa as well as someone to cover the costs of the tests," he said. "I've never seen anything like this in my entire career." |
