it's really ironic

"Isn't it ironic..we ignore those who adore us, adore those who ignore us, hurt those who love us, and love those who hurt us?"

god knows where i got this quote.heh~

the malays

it is horror to think nowadays malay behavior.for me it getting worse and worse.never takes anything in a positive side.example,when they are given a certain task,mostly the 1st reaction by them are to say "weh susah sial mende ni.." or "bapak ar..nk bunuh org ke bg keje cmni!".dis kind of thinking will automatically closing our mind scope..isolating to the 'impossible to do' part.this situation will make us malays an unsuccessful race eventually.

2nd thing,most of us malays always envy to someone who is better than us.actually it is okay to envy them..but in a right way.most of us will try to take them down when they are better than us..try to frame them..try to humiliate them.this it totally a very wrong thing to do.suppose we try to achieve what they had achieved.sometimes i feel sick living in this kind of community.but it is my responsibility,our responsibility to turn things up to be better for us malay.

next..they will be angry when we try to advice or telling the truth about them.they might be angry if they read this post.like i say before..we must be positive.we must take critics as one way to improve ourselves.well..i hope we malays think it deeply and take some action before our race fallen apart..before we lost control of our country..InsyaAllah..

DC++ threaten at UTP

there's a rumor says that DC++ servers will be ordered to shut down.most students here are freaking shock and disagree with it. for some extra hot shit,there's also some students who support the shutting down of DC++.here's one of the prove that the supporters really exist,and actually showing their support to the rector:

Dear Datuk Dr. Zainal,

I would truly support UTP Management to close down IRC and DC++ regardless what reasons given by the students.

I agree that UTP facilities are meant for academic, not for entertainment.

As far i m concern, the request of not to ban IRC shall not be entertained at all. This kind of request carries no value at all as the matter of fact, majority of the students use IRC for non academic purpose, and i admit that i m part of the majority.

I dont understand the reason behind why these students still want to fight for it as if they are paying for the facilities for entertaiment? Why dont they spend their time to struggle and get 4.0 every semester?

So what if the students get the IRC? would they still perform well and obtain 4.0 every semester? Definitely NO because entertainment are more enjoyable than study.

Let's put it in simple term... Who provide the internet facilities? Student or UTP Management? Obviously is UTP Management. So the UTP Management has the fullest authority to do anything, and there shall no be any questions about it. If the students do not like it or dissatisfied, please leave UTP and go create their own IRC in other campuses. I believe there are thousands of SPM leavers and DIploma students who are craving to enter UTP.

Lastly, i hope this issue should have a full stop because it has been carry over and over again. Nothing to be negotiate anymore. Students should understand their responsibility as a student. And that explains everything.

I am sorry for such informal feedback. Perhaps i feel very close to you due to your concern of us.

Thank you for your attention.

some of the DC++ supporters think that the post to rector above is very offensive and not rational.for them,all those points in the post are very debatable and this is one of the rebut post from them:

Dr. Zainal,
I have read your post in the eLearning regarding the IRC issue. First of all, I would like to sincerely
thank the management for taking initiative to relieve the network congestions issue. Whatever the
solution is, I hope it is for the best of the students.

I just want to share with you my experience with IRC for this 4 years in UTP. My friends and I have been using Internet Relay Chat since 1st year where we have created our own community channel for communication purpose. First of all, we do not and never see IRC as an entertainment tool but as a communication tool to get us connected together after lectures and tutorials. Believe me, we have used it to discuss problems and assignments. I know this can be done in the library or cafe, but I like the idea that we can work in our own rooms and share ideas from our own rooms. This can save us a lot of time. If IRC will be banned in the future, please provide us with alternative where a communication tool can be used to share idea for academic purpose.
I firmly believe that IRC is NOT supposed to be used to download non academic materials and obscene materials. I also agree that UTP management should take actions to resolve the network congestion issue because we need high speed connection to search for information over the net, especially when doing FYP.

I have also read the student feedback where you have posted in the eLearning. Although the feedback is the author's personal feedback and we all should respect various suggestions and feedbacks, the feedback has already been made an issue by people around me because some of the points are debatable. In my humble opinion, entertainment can co-exist with excellence academic performance, provided that there is a proper time management. A little entertainment can make us rest for a while, to prepare for a longer journey. I know certain people are not happy with events like Euphonious and Star Search because they view it as excessive entertainment. I think the only question is, how do you define entertainment?

Besides, some of my friends who are regular 4.0 GPA achievers are also regular IRC users. I don't see how the author can connect IRC with the ability to achieve 4.0. I think the ability to achieve good result lies with the ability to control one's attitude and destiny. I also disagree with the author that " UTP Management has the fullest authority to do anything, and there shall no be any questions about it. If the students do not like it or dissatisfied, please leave UTP and go create their own IRC in other campuses." . We live in a democratic society, not an autocratic society. What he/she said in the feedback is wrong because I believe UTP management will take students' voices into account. In a truly democratic country, no one is allowed to have the fullest authority to do anything with no questions asked about the decision made. Also, if there are certain group of people disagree with the decisions, then negotiation/discussion/debate should be held to resolve problems, NOT simply asking people to leave UTP. After 4 years studying in UTP, I felt kind of sad and disappointed after reading such comments.

I am glad that UTP students like me have a rector who always wants the best for us. I know you will always consider the students' voices or else you could have just banned the IRC without having to post a lengthy explanation in the eLearning. As a student, I am interested in and will support whatever decisions made for long term benefits of the students. Thank you very much.

for me..the second post is much more relevant and convincing.i also hope that DC++ server will not be shut down because there are many things that all the UTP students can share together and faster.anyway,its up to the admin to think which one is better of UTP.live or die..make ur choice~

*p/s-i thought riot may happen if it is shut down..haha
