RASUAH

2008-10-23T00:32:00.001+08:00

Akhir2 ini jenayah rasuah semakin berleluasa. Dari angka yang dikemukan di sini (tahun 2004), ianya amat membimbangkan.

Rasuah
Dari Wikipedia Bahasa Melayu, ensiklopedia bebas.

Rasuah merupakan suatu jenayah atau kesalahan undang-undang dimana seseorang mendapat kebebasan, kontrak atau keistimewaan (favours) dari pihak berkuasa atau sesebuah syarikat selepas memberi wang, hadiah, keraian kepada pihak-pihak tersebut. Menurut Badan Pencegah Rasuah Malaysia terdapat empat kesalahan rasuah yang utama:

Meminta/Menerima Rasuah
Menawar/Memberi Rasuah
Membuat Tuntutan Palsu
Menyalahguna Jawatan/Kedudukan

Pemberian rasuah jika tidak dibendung akan mengakibatkan banyak masalah sosial kerana undang-undang tidak akan dipatuhi dengan sepenuhnya. Maka kegiatan jenayah dan ketidakadilan akan berleluasa. Rasuah di kalangan penguatkuasa adalah perkara biasa di kebanyakan negara pengeluar petroleum dan negara miskin terutamanya di Amerika Latin.

Indeks Persepsi Rasuah
Indeks ini ialah indeks persepsi korupsi yang dikumpul dari ahli perniagaan atau bisnes yang memberi mata dengan skala 0 hingga 10 dengan 10 (bersih dari rasuah) dan 0 (kadar rasuah yang amat tinggi). Indeks ini telah dirangka oleh Transparency International satu badan antarabangsa yang menganalisa ketelusan serta kadar rasuah diperingkat global.
Antara negara-negara yang mempunyai kadar rasuah yang amat tinggi dan mendapat mata di antara 1.5 dan 2.0 dalam TI Corruption Perceptions Index 2004 termasuklah:
Haiti
Bangladesh
Nigeria
Myanmar
Chad
Paraguay
Azerbaijan
Di kalangan negara ASEAN (selain Myanmar), Indonesia mempunyai mata yang sangat rendah iaitu pada 2.0. Manakala Malaysia terletak di bahagian yang lebih tinggi iaitu dengan mata 5.0. Namun negara ASEAN yang mendapat keyakinan paling tinggi ialah Singapura dengan 9.3.

Dari fakta yang tersebut di atas, Malaysia adalah salah sebuah negara yang tertinggi mengalami masaalah ini.

Adakah anda mengenali sesiapa yang terlibat dalam kancah ini??

KAKAK

2008-10-21T12:51:00.006+08:00

Semalam sewaktu membeli-belah di TESCO dan sedang membelek2 baju kat area baju pompuan, tiba-tiba:

"kakak, boleh tolong saya turun kan baju ni tak?" pompuan tu cakap.

"huh?? apa dia?" @pp pura2 tak dengar.

"kakak, tolong saya. Saya ni tak cukup tinggi." katanya lagi.

"sorry, apa you cakap?" @pp sambung, pura2 buat pekak.

"kakak, baju ni tinggi sangat, saya tak sampai" katanya lagi.

oklah, @pp pun pergilah turun kan baju kat sipompuan pendek ni.

yang @pp tak puas hati, dia panggil @pp kakak, walhal muka dia kerepot sana sini cuma berpakaian moden tanpa tudung tapi looks at least 15 years older then me. @pp pula dari tadi buat2 tak dengar sebab nak nak make sure dia repeat panggilan kakak tu.

tak sedar diri punya orang tua kerepot...

ke aku yang dah kerepot ni???

si pompuan tua perasan itu..

P/s Entry ni tak de kena mengena dengan entry cabincrew are not here to kiss your !@# walaupun tajuk nya sama. hehe.

DEKO BERSAMA @PP

2008-10-17T12:34:00.009+08:00

Dari sebuah showhouse/condo:

One of the masterbedroom
Dining Room
Living Room
Another living room from type B.Bird cage as part of decor.

Pictures were taken at the Showhouse.

Ekceli @pp n habibi sedang mencari kondo untuk dijadikan 2nd home bila kami
"relocate" nanti, so kami pun adalah jalan2 look2 see2 kondo2 yg ada disekitar LK ni especially di sekitar area dekat2 dgn rumah ayanhanda dan bonda. Another reason juga, kerana @pp tak berapa suka neighborhood yang @pp duduk sekarang ni.

Jadi semlm @pp dan habibi pergi ke sebuah showhouse di tepi MRR2 dan sempat ber@pprazi. Walaupun @pp tahu, no pictures allowed tapi habibi sempat distract sales man so that @pp boleh take pics..

Below are taken from @pp's house.

Wall decor from Riccardo. Konon2 nak ala2 Inggeris gitew..

Wall decor bought from Lovely Lace.Canvas paintings done by my 2 boys with Raja Azhar and later framed exclusively. (Mahal frame dari paintingnya)

Tangga buloh dari exhibition di GEM. Kain yg digantung di tangga dibeli di Saudi. BUnga2 dlm vase tu beli kat Ampang Point.

Painting kat tepi dinding tu bought in Paris last year and later framed here. (Itu jer yg mampu)

ANGIN SATU BADAN

2008-10-12T18:23:00.006+08:00

ERRRGHHHHH!!!!@#$%^& Aruah washing machine ku..

Mana tak angin nyer..

Dalam bulan ni, 3 barang letrik @pp hancos disebabkan gara2 PR @Pp yang super efficient tu..

1) Vacuum

2) Blender

3) Washing machine

Macam mana tak meletop,

1) Vacuum - selagi boleh disedutnya, disedut tak berenti2, sampai 1/2 jam motornya tak berenti. Padahal vacuum tu baru beli bulan 5 ari tu. (Yg ini PR adik yang buat)

2) Blender tengah on - tapi siap gi kuar, ambik daun pandan, sapu2 depan, borak2 dgn PR sebelah, biar je berputar sampai 10-15 mins, everytime blend camtu ler cerita, tegur beratus kali pun x makan - akhirnya pd hari Rabu yang lepas, blender tu pun terbakar!

3) Washing machine - pusing x berenti2. Bila tukar cadar sekali 2 bilik, pastu basuh x renti2. Patutnya x payahlah basuh continously bcoz cadar ada banyak, sipan lah dulu, esok lusa baru basuh sket2.... but still she did, now dah mesin pun dah terbakar! Nasiblah kau, lepas ni, kau basuh tangan jer lah...

Angin, angin. aku dibuatnya...

sabar jer lahhh..

REMEMBER THESE KITTIES???

MASIH DALAM MOOD RAYA

2008-10-08T20:09:00.003+08:00

Disebabkan @pp masih di dalam mood raya, kami anak beranak (bonda dan kedua2 PR) telah berada di dapur untuk membuat roti jalan dan kuah kari hari ini. Tengahari tadi, kami telah meng "ap" nasi ayam yang disediakan oleh PR @pp. Ingat di hati @pp nak buat high tea dengan roti jala, and panggil jiran depan rumah untuk menjamahnya sempena Raya. Tapi disebabkan masalah teknikal, pukul 6 baru siap. High tea, jadi dinner....

WHAT IS A MARRIAGE?

2008-09-23T18:36:00.003+08:00

SELINGAN SEBELUM IDULFITRI

In my inbox -
Just for fun.

1. Marriage is not a word. It's a sentence (a life sentence).

2. Marriage is love. Love is blind. Therefore marriage is an institution for the blind.

3. Marriage is an institution in which a man loses his Bachelor's Degree and the woman gets her masters.

4. Marriage is a three-ring circus: engagement ring, wedding ring and suffeRING.

5. Married life is full of excitement and frustration: In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens. In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens.In the third year, they both speak and the NEIGHBOUR listens.

6. Getting married is very much like going to a restaurant with friends.You order what you want, and when you see what the other person has, you wish you had ordered that instead.

7. There was this man who muttered a few words in the church and found himself married. A year later he muttered something in his sleep and found himself divorced.

8. A happy marriage is a matter of giving and taking; the husband gives and the wife takes.

9. Son: How much does it cost to get married, Dad? Father: I don't know son, I'm still paying for it.

10. Son: Is it true Dad? I heard that in ancient China, a man doesn't know his wife until he marries her. Father: That happens everywhere, son, EVERYWHERE!

11. Love is one long sweet dream, and marriage is the alarm clock.

12. They say that when a man holds a woman's hand before marriage, it is love; after marriage it is self-defense.

13. When a newly married man looks happy, we know why. But when a 10-year married man looks happy, we wonder why.

14. There was this lover who said that he would go through hell for her. They got married, and now he is going through HELL.

16. When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her.

17. Eighty percent of married men cheat in America, the rest cheat in Europe.

18. After marriage, husband and wife become two sides of a coin. They just can't face each other, but they still stay together.

19. Marriage is man and a woman become one. The trouble starts when they try to decide which one.

20. Before marriage, a man yearns for the woman he loves. After the marriage the "Y" becomes silent.

21. I married Miss right; I just didn't know her first name was Always.

22. It's not true that married men live longer than single men, it only seems longer.

23. Losing a wife can be hard. In my case, it was almost impossible.

24. A man was complaining to a friend: I HAD IT ALL-MONEY, A BEAUTIFUL HOUSE, THE LOVE OF A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, THEN POW! IT WAS ALL GONE. WHAT HAPPENED, asked his friend. He says MY WIFE FOUND OUT.

25. WIFE: Let's go out and have some fun tonight. HUSBAND: OK, but if you get home before I do, leave the hallway lighs on.

26. At a cocktail party, one woman said to another: AREN'T YOU WEARING YOUR RING ON THE WRONG FINGER? The other replied, YES, I, AM. I MARRIED THE WRONG MAN.

27. Man is incomplete until he gets married, then he is finished.

28. It doesn't matter how often a married man changes his job, he still ends up with the same boss.

29. A man inserted an ad in the paper - WIFE WANTED. The next day he received a hundred of letters and they all said the same thing - YOU CAN HAVE MINE.

30. When a man opens the door of his car for his wife, you can be sure of one thing - either the car is new or the wife is.

IFTAR @ KLCC (LPC & CHILI'S - 2in1)

2008-09-21T14:28:00.018+08:00

Out of the blues, habibi who doesn't usually like the weekend crowd, took us out for iftar at KLCC yesterday.

We ended up at Little Penang Cafe (LPC) although son no 1 had earlier insist that we had iftar had Chilis. Went down and saw a line of like 30 people waiting to get in. So LPC it was, and right after we had our iftar @ LPC, and Chili's it was!!

As crazy as it may sound, when you have an 11 and a 9 year old who fasted all day long and haven't missed a day, literally begging at your feet, you can't do anything but to oblige (hmm.. no wonder i can never complete a full month or Ramadhan when I was at their age!!)

But right before Iftar, I managed to squeeze some time to get my essentials!!!

It was a 3 day members sale @ Isetan and I have ran out of a few beauty products from SKII. First stop SKII counter. Although initially I only needed 2 items, the SKII sales girl had manage to lure me into getting things that were not in my essential list as to ensure that I could get the free gifts and more Isetan vouchers (get RM10 for each RM100 paid for cosmetics). Not that I am complaining!

To get the free gifts (ie the miniature thingy ), I had to add 2 masks @ RM43 each to add to the total allowing me to get the free gift (hmmm.. on 2nd tots, it is just a marketing gimmick, right?!). I think it is a little too pricey for a mask which you only put on your face for 20 minutes ! Makes you wonder.... is the mask really working??

As we were passing the home decor section @ isetan, son no 2 saw this ice cream moulder and begged me to get it.

And while at the cashier counter, I saw a long wooden spoon and said to myself "Hey!! A must have!!" (Meanwhile, son no 2 had fun playing with it as a sword.....how innovative) .

This is beautiful. If you take a closer look, there are bamboos around the lamp.

Over at Chili's the boys had nachos and some dessert with a tall glass of sodas each to quench their thirst! (I wonder if the food we had at LPC wasn't enough for the boyss)

Me?? A tall glass of warm water with lemon slices! Fulfiling enough...

CUTE KITTENS NEED HOME, PLEASE!

2008-09-20T07:06:00.001+08:00

3s stooges
oooohh.. they are so cute..

These kittens were born by a stray cat, in front of my house a couple of weeks ago and are now looking for a home to live in. They have been living with their mom at my garage. We tried to move them to another spot but their mom would then remove them.

My household loves cats but I can't afford to have them in my home as my son is asthmatic. He has been begging me to keep these kittens but Im afraid we can't. He has been hospitalised for about 4 times in his 9 years of life because of asthma. I love my son more than I love these kittens obviously.

If you or anybody you know are looking for a kitten/s, please drop me a note. Gracia!

BERBUKA BERSAMA TEMAN2

2008-09-20T00:32:00.001+08:00

Alhamdulillah, siang tadi tercapai juga niat @pp menjamu kawan2 (ex-staff) berbuka di rumah. Menunya amat simple.

1) Nasi putih

2) Rendang daging

3) Masak asam ikan bawal

4) Mixed veggie

5) Ikan pari dan terubok bakar

6) Ayam goreng berempah

7) Kuih muih penuh meja termasuk ler ever feveret kuih lapis biru ku

8) Minuman panas dan sejuk.

9) Buah tembikai pencuci mulut

10) Cendol

11) hampir terlupa - tempe goreng !!!

Seonok rasanya bila @pp yang berhempas pulas di dapur menyediakan juadah dan pulak tu teman2 yang dtg membawa kuih muih untuk memenuhkan lagi meja.

Sebahagian dari juadah.

My feveret guest.
Apa lagi.. main bunga api.. ke bunga asap??

Teman2 @pp cuma pulang hampir jam 12. Patutnya terus lepak sampai sahurkan.. Barulah happening!
