AirAsia X to Axe London Route

When i was student in Leeds, we were given with only a few choice of airlines and the cheapest one is BIMAN, Bangladeshi's national airline. It was such a horrible experience. I remembered the flight stopover at Frankfurt, Dakka, Bangkok then only Kuala Lumpur. It's not the stopover that bothered me, but more on the comfort of the aircraft .. and the flight food.

When AirAsia X cancelled the flight to London, many students started to re-plan their summer holiday. For student who had paid for the flight to KL this spring, they must be cursing a hell. Money collected, deposited in fixed deposit. When they refund, it is just the same amount to travelers.

Always, always, travelers at the losing side.

Time to Change

It is sickening everytime when i think about how i am being underpaid by my employer. the fact that there are less than 3 companies in Malaysia that can do what we can do today. still, we are paid just like any other IT company. heck! we are working with radar systems, electronic warfare and such. the cost of each of the equipment is mindboggling but the company treat us as if we are installing desktop computers and servers. It is not just about the amount of work that we give, but it is more about the expertise, knowledge and experience we have. this 3 elements can be easily exported to the competitor (by the means of hiring us with tripple pay!). Our bosses just dont realise this, until one day we would say "au revoir!" and they would say something like "oh, we just eat our own shit! the competitor can do what we always do!". just wait and see ... the pictures below say everything. ordinary company just don't do this. .n.g.

Market Penetration

Suddenly, my blog hits have reached to a staggering average number of .. yes .. 5 unique visitors per day. Well, it is such a huge success for me as this is an increase of 70% from the previous average of 3 unique visitors per day. If i were in a corporate world, 70% increase means promotion to Senior Vice President .. While i am celebrating this huge phenomenon success on my side (no i cant celebrate the N9 winning feat of Piala Malaysia), i keep pondering on how i can successfully promote my blog. Definitely readers are looking for something new, and sensational. I am not 'cute' or handsome, and definitely a turn off to female readers .. ha ha. The last time i had readers from Australia, and this last 2 days, i have a reader from NYC!! Look at my visitors' map. *so proud* .n.g.

Is there a Theory of Everything? by Dr Michio Kaku

Image
i came across this article from Dr Michio Kaku, a reknown physicist. i've read a lot of journals, watched so many Discovery Channels and National Geographics programmes on the Theory of Everything, yet i still have not come across a good article to explain it all from A to Z. even wikipedia is not so convincing this time (wikipedia has been my favourite on other topics). i hope this blog eventually can shed some lights on this theory as i gather more articles and journals. for a start, let's read this article from Dr Michio Kaku. Dr. Michio Kaku, Professor of Theoretical Physics at the City University of New York, is the author of VISIONS: HOW SCIENCE WILL REVOLUTIONIZE THE 21ST CENTURY and the best-seller HYPERSPACE. [begin of article] When I was a child, I used to visit the Japanese Tea Garden in San Francisco. I would spend hours fascinated by the carp, who lived in a very shallow pond just inches beneath the lily pads, just beneath my fingers, totally o blivious to t
