Hey YOU..DoN't B1OcK the BlOgGerZ

We know that every 10 years or so there is a expectation of recession which cause world turmoil, economist predicted the worse is yet to come. Composite Indexes and CPI is depreciating badly that no quick fix can be applied. Policy makers, Investors and stakeholders are debating how much damage could the downturn cause, but none could bravely make any decision.American economy has in recent years  aided by a global web of finance so elaborate that no one seems capable of fully comprehending it. That makes it all but impossible to predict how much the economy can be expected to fall before it stabilizes (NYTIMES). Although many quick measures are being undertaken, it is difficult to undermine the huge investment that need to be made to restore the current situation "amicably" , US is shouting for campaigns and luring people by giving tax rebates & slashing interest rates. The construction Industry is threatened as the building of new houses as dropped to 50% since the peak of 2006-2007. The sales of new house has fallen much faster thus causing over supply to demand, this dragdown the value of houses much lower. There is a expectation many firms will tend to hide or delay in giving reporting on losses they made to erode more anxiety.

Malaysia doesn’t escape from the domino effect that US had created, although we don’t read much on the newspaper, KLCI is good enough to show how the  WALL STREET downward spiral is circling to sweep the ecomomy of Malaysia, A pinch in US will cause pain in all other Countries. The worst recession ( same as what happened in 1930’s) is predicted to happen in 2008-2009.

The banking panics put downward pressure on economic activity in two ways. First, they put fear into the hearts of depositors. Many people concluded that cash in their mattresses was wiser than accounts at local banks (people save money in such way during World War II). The three researchers show that the leading economists at the time, at competing forecasting services run by Harvard and Yale, were caught completely by surprise by the severity and length of the Great Depression. What’s worse, despite many advances in the tools of economic analysis, modern economists armed with the data from the time would not have forecast much better. In other words, even if another Depression were around the corner, you shouldn’t expect much advance warning from the economics profession (N.Gregory Mankiew).Let’s hope for the best and safeguard our job, save/invest money in trusted and reliable banking & investment firm.

Sunday schools are different from education schools that touch based on certain subject or calculations. Sunday school teach us to use our own creativity such as crafts, drawing, coloring and followed by bible studies. However SRF (Self Realization Foundation ) has imposed unique methologies quantified with numerous handpicked lessons for growing children which I witnessed personally. The lessons help them to grow and outwit the delusion that we’re adopting now. They are taught
Im personally gifted to witness how the Senior members of SRF, Kuala Lumpur mould the lessons into each children. Based on simple modules such as story telling, prayers and singing provides crucial information and balanced education to the children. Children loves story and their attentiveness is easily attuned and attracted , they tend to keep their focusness.I find the lessons - teaching by GREAT Paramahamsa Yogananda gives importance to many little things that we may tend to defocus and seems not necessary. The focus is always oneand only with GOD, all of us are aware and there is a strong beliefs that GOD do speak with Kids - being the most purest creation.The children are taught the right mechanism to say prayers, something which Im not taught When I was a kid, Our parents do encourage us to pray, we know there is a Supreme power that watch us constantly however we performed our prayes " as being Told" without any sincerity. Our parents often tell us that if you do this mistake, god will punish you and  this has instantaneously created fear in all of us, But not LOVE towards God. A Senior Member from SRF KL teach us on how to Love God by relating some true wonderful stories, special prayers,songs & affirmations. The method is easily adopted by any kids as she used layman english with a lot of affection, loving and diligently taught the children on how to say prayers for parents, friends and their siblings something which all of us adopted ONLY when we started growing more maturedly, we’re selfish we only pray to ourselves especially during Major exams such as PMR or SPM and we will only pray that " I must get x number A’s " we never pray for our friends or our brothers or sisters .

There are also some creative lessons arranged for the kids which enables them to use their skills and mindset. The lessons taught in SRF which occurs once a month will certainly creates impact to children’s mental and physical growth. The unique meditation techniques combines with spiritual classes will ensure the children grows up in a oasis of Learned Ones and cultivate them for betterment in their personal life. With the current pandemic of kids extreme behaviour and crimes, Right Spiritual education will help the growing kids to keep closer to God and start to Love GOD more sincerely. GOD will be their Best Friends and develop divine friendship.

Request : I do hope parents whom are willing to invest for their children for Piano, karate

and other classes will also consider Spiritual classes. Furthermore the Senior members of SRF KL, has vast experience and the lessons are specially prepared by Mother Center in US.

One Shall Not Forget How the Spiritual Sunday classes shaped Britain.

After applying for Sunway Photography trip (a 2D1N trip to the Lost World of Tambun, Ipoh), my many weeks of waiting ended after I received a call from Michael, AMBP selection. I’m very much delighted and immediately agreed to join the trip. Applying for leave is not a problem for me  . AMBP,relatively new in Malaysia, has setup creative programmes for young blogger like me. The project collates ideas and constructively encourages to think differently and at the same time cultivate hidden skills - for example photography. Upon receiving the itinerary I was  busy preparing to ensure that I’m equipped and geared. We left to Tambun at 10:30am from Menara Star (Phileo Damansara). Transportation along with coach was sponsored by MayFlower. Seating in the bus is comfortable and conducive. The tourist coach gave short presentation on our arrival and other safety measures. . Mayflower provides travel services for almost all top notch companies and it is well known to deliver what is promised and it is a well known virtue of theirs. Prior to this, many times I have used Mayflower services for most of my business trips to Europe and in Asia. When we reached Tambun approximately at 1:30pm, my (our) stomach was growling louder than the tigers in the valley.
We’re received by the Sunway Officals followed by Malayana Tribe dance. What I could hear next was sounds of ‘clicks and flashes of lights’ … Yes photoshooting !!! Then, We’re taken for a short train ride. Ms.Christine (Sunway official) gave a splendid explanation on the salient features of the Park at Sunway Lagoon Resort. At Tiger Valley, which was the next hop, I’m amazed to see such a huge tiger after almost a decade (the last one I saw was at Singapore Zoo when I’m just merely 10 years Old)  It’s amazing to witness the way Sultan, the tiger, grabs its piece of cake (meat). My excitement and amusement continued by the appearance of cute tiger cubs. In the midst of smiles and laughter, i thought to myself "God! You and Your creation indeed beautiful!" The tiger cubs are so adorable kiddos !!
So far entertained my eyes!! Time to entertain my stomach (since it’s signalling for food)!!! So, walked into Kepura Cave for a sumptuous and delicious lunch (first time having lunch at Cave, without bats and other creatures). Now that stomach is full, it is time for some action! A Photography workshop was conducted by Sham, a freelancer for European Agency, who taught and gave tips on photography. I must say that the session is excellent.
Now, it is camping time! At Needle Village, With the help of Vicki , Raaja and Novin i set up my tent where I’m the only resident. My little hut.. Home Sweet Home…is surrounded with trees,bushes and mountains. I rejoiced the connection with Nature that Sunway had painstakingly built and created a beautiful retreat.
Time to get wet! 4 of us walked to soak ourselves at Splashing water park. Me being first timer, I found it quite amazing to feel the solitudes of water and freshness everywhere. Although I didn’t join the trio , I enjoyed capturing the memories in the little device of mine. I’m filled with laughters and happy moments transformed my mind into childlike.
Stomach growling again , it is time for dinner. The aroma of bbq spices and sauces is intoxicating and created gastronamic effect in our tummy. The chef are busy preparing dinner for all of us. We had mouthful of satays, bbqued chicken and sausages and fruit cocktail to wash down the sauces in our mouth. We continously posed to the clicks from many different angles. Next we played the live Counter Strike - The Ultimate Tactial game, it is fun, we’re geared with guns (that can be reloaded) and "ammunition ". We lost to our opponents however it is an adventurous game which involves strategy. However we had fun, that is more important. Raaja’s team won the strike !! Great ! We enjoyed the rest of the night listening to the music of insects’ screeches and rhymes while soaking our feet in the Natural Hot Spring. We yakked away and throwed some grapes to our "Human-Dolphins" in the hot spring.
Another wonderful day!! The next day I woke up as early as 6:30am to catch the early sun-rise plus milk feeding to cubs. I would say that I was frozen without air condition inside the camp !! The morning fresh air creates spikes in our body. It is very fascinating to view the surrounding mountains around Sunway City while watching the cubs being fed with milk. I took light breakfast later, getting prepared for the 6th Mile cave exploration which is arranged by Sunway Officials. We’re divided into 2 groups which consist of 15 of us. Vicki’s group went to Gua Datok while ours to 6th Mile Cave exploration - it is a wet adventure. We did a light excercise to relax our muscles. We wore the cave gears such as head lamp, life jacket and safety helmet. Our cameras are packaged into durable plastics, we’re given Carbo snack and a bottle of mineral water. We swam to the entrance of Cave, we need to cross the river, however due to thick mud (till my waist) we’re supposed to float/swim by holding a rope towards the cave. It is adventurous floating….The entrance of the cave is much smaller than my dog’s tunnel,and it is the same till the end pheww !! The water level is upto my chest.. Arghhh !! Well it is adventure and challenging. The cave was utilized and re-made by Communism during the world war, It is amazing to witness, the hidden treasures of Sunway -deep inside the cave. The crystals shines in dark, the huge array of rocks built by Communis is breathtaking, the patterns of the cave is engraved by Stalagcytes and Stalagmites, the drops from the limestones is chill enough for goosebumps that travels on my spines !!! Not forgetting bats that are dancing on the top !! We reached the end of tunnel, some mountains, we traced the river bank to find for its origin, the water fall is very cool and chilling, I took my chance to give a Shampoo advertisement shot.. hahah  the next moment I know.. I slipped and fell, Im too much delighted with the water fall till forgets to watch my steps on mosses rocks. Yeah I’m hurt terribly but the water is chill enough to distract the pain. I feel very connected and attached to Mother Nature and started enjoying everything that I saw and feel, even when I fell and got hurt. We managed to take some shots of mother nature, Bunga Kantan ( a spice that is well used in Rendang and Curries). We walked back through the same cave to reach our camps. So it is double adventure for all of us, those who missed to capture the uniqueness of the cave had a second chance to witness the art and creativity of divine. Although tired and soaked in fresh water, Im still energetic. Sunway officials had prepared hot steaming food for lunch, I enjoyed the lunch very much, it is one of the best lunch that I ever had, so fresh and tasty. Next I took the final oppurtunity before we head back to KL to soak myself in the Natural Spring Water, the high water pressure from Rock Tiger eases our tiredness away and it is rejuvenating.
Time to pckup!! All of us are busy bringing down our camps and the trio helped me to fold the camps and instruments back to the origins. Before we onboarded our bus, Sunway Officials presented us with a momento, something for us to remember every morning - Yes !! Ipoh White Coffe. After boarding the bus, the next moment all of us dozed off !! Tired but very adventurous experience.

I would like to take the oppurtunity to thank AMBP ( Michael and Andy) , MayFlower and Sunway City Management for arranging such an adventurous and challenging trip for us. It will rejoice in each and everyone’s mind and Sunway Lagoon Resort is a great retreat that one should opt for after medling in a hustle-bustle city life. It’s fortunate to be part of AMBP and looking forward to get myself involved in their upcoming activities.
 
Blogging - a passion that brought a bunch of us - together as FRIENDS.

I just woke up from my sleep after swallowing 2 fever tablets. I’m feeling very uneasy with my fever since yesterday evening as it prevents me from doing my work as usual. With all the pain, feverish I drove back from JB to KL this morning..I had no choice as I need to appear in the office tommorow…not forgeting 3 meetings.

Ouchhh my body still aches horribly with pulsating headaches !
Leave all that aside, Today I need to write about " Irratai Kilavi" (IR), well it doesn’t mean Double Old lady !! The meaning totally differ…Iratai Kilavi is gramattical term widely used in tamil preferably for Poem or rhyme, One can refer to Tholkapium.Iratai killavi is nothing but repeated sounds - syllable without any meaning. If you could recall Kannodu Kanbathelam song from Jeans, the meaning is clearly described. " Sala -Sala irattai killavi , Taga-Taga Irattai Killavi undalo tamilil undalo , Pirithi vaithal Nyayam illai, Pirrithi paarthal porulum illai, Rendalo irandum ondralo" Most of ARR songs embedded IR widely,  which easily make one song hit, this is world renowned truth, well reasearched and analysed. But mind you this words is meaningless if it survive as single word, try breaking them..!! Example most of you would have watch Roja today " Chinna- Chinna -China asai ( double words) and everyone knows this song won many awards and we hymm till today…Ilayaraaja is one of them..Many people perhaps haven’t listened to Raaja Sir’s "Sanghathil paadatha" Song, it became hit very recently after almost 15 years, Thanks to Jaya TV for screening the Maestro’s live concert " Andrum Indrum Endrum". He performed beautiful Violin instrumentation for this song at ITALY.

"..Sindhi then senthoora ithalgalil , sindhi then paigindra uravvai, Konjum thaan Konjathaan.." Song from Auto Raja ( Sanghathil Paadatha Kavithai). "Sindhithen .. Sindhi Then"  have double meaning it could be either "Think/Recalling" or "Honey drops" same goes to " Konjumthan .. Konjathan" it could mean
"love passionately" or "a little" , Marvellous Song. Listen to this song completely, try to digest the lyrics..Awesome.Some history of me learning tamil, I never attend any tamil school to learn tamil , my tamil is soooo bad during school days. When I was in Primary school I didn’t utter any tamil words with my classmates, not only me well the whole class is like that !! Till now we don’t know the reason..It is my own initiative, starting is very painful as I have no one to help me, Thanks to Mr.Murugesu ( I took tamil class from him when Im 14years old) at school. In the mid year the POL (People’s Own language) class got scrapped off, we’re left without a tamil Sir since then. He was my backbone, He used to scold me if my pronounciation is wrong !! followed by The Late Mr.Uthuman Ghani Sir and Meenakshi Sabapathy who have instilled and be a role model in my life to read, learn and live tamil.

OK time to take my medicine now…
