BBC 30/12/2015
才寫了關於公共服務的貼，上網就聽到今天的BBC 新聞訪問了在馬來西亞創業的歐洲人。一個是希臘來的工程師，另一個是西班牙來的。
希臘工程師在2005時來馬來西亞看看，希臘經濟已經開始走下坡，他就來東南亞試試看。結果，他居然能在一天裡註冊設立一間公司。一轉眼，幾年過去了，他也留下了。
西班牙來的也是出於同樣原因，西班牙經濟也是一團糟，失業率高達25%，他來到吉隆坡碰碰運氣。來的時候，他是外行，對商業的出口入口運作全無知識。現在他的公司從南美洲入口莓子進在馬來西亞。他說同樣的事在歐洲的話，要拖時幾個月。現在根本沒回去的打算。
老實說，我們認為生意難做，但是外人來看看，哇。。。生機一片。

About public sector services.
I got this figure from India's Cabinet Secretariat for Performance Management. The full report is here.
Around the world, government services are full of bureaucratic processes, many processes and time wasting procedures.
It comes to my surprise that i found this report. We Malaysian like to complain all sort of things under the sun. Yes, any words that uttered from our mouth about public services, nothing seems to go right. Sometimes i wonder are we Malaysians being educated correctly to just being good in making complaints?
This figure definitely put us in a better perspective in viewing our own public services.
I still remembered thathow my mat salleh manager from NZ reacted when he knew that my passport can be renewed and collected in half a day, and that was 9 years ago. And as usual there are rooms to improve, i believe we are in right direction. Maybe making lots of complaints help to drive government to perform better, maybe :)

BIA - how to develop a BIA?
This is a very standard answer (adopted from a quiz) -
A collaborative effort between the Organization BCM Coordinator, Business Unit BCM Coordinator,
the Executive Management and BCM Steering Committee, is essential to the success of this phase.
The information and findings from the BIA will determine the recovery strategies, the bc recovery process and procedures, the effectiveness of the organization recovery from disasters: possibly, even its survival.
In most BCP projects, the Organization BCM Coordinator will identify the information to gather in the BIA and develop the BIA Questionnaire (BIAQ) to facilitate the data collection process.
(This is of course provided that the he/she knows how to develop such an questionnaire.)
He/she should also set the criteria for financial (quantitative) and non-financial (qualitative) impacts.
The criteria for prioritization and recovery timescales for the critical business functions should also
be defined. He/she should get the BCM Steering Committee to approve the approach, criteria and the format of the BIAQ. The next step will be to train and provide instructions to the Business Unit BCM Coordinator on how to complete the BIAQ.
The Business Unit BCM Coordinator will work with the relevant process owners within their departments to identify the critical business functions and complete the BIAQ. He/she should also review and validate the information with the department head, who will should approve and sign-off the BIAQ.
The approved BIAQ will be submitted to the Organization BCM Coordinator for collation and further evaluation. The Organization BCM Coordinator should review and clarify the BIAQ information with the department head,Business Unit BCM Coordinator and the process owners, if necessary.
He/she will then prepare a report and submit the findings and recommendations to the BCM Steering Committee and/or Executive Management for approval. Any differences or issues relating to the BIAQ and the prioritization for recovery of the critical business functions, will be resolved and decided by the BCM Steering Committee or Executive Committee.

黃雨傘
他們抗議什麼？校園民主？社會正義？人權自由？民主法治？經濟民生？財富分配？！寡頭壟斷？家庭暴力？性別歧視？教育制度？走私偷渡？
不，他們只在意特首直選！這特首最好是別親北京。他們從骨子里不認為自己是中國人。
所謂的黃雨傘就是這种無聊幼稚行為？！自由民主到了這种水平程度的手里肯定會被利用濫用。

Newspaper
I usually read 2 or 3 newspaper a day, depending on my mode. Well, i have to admit they are English and Chinese papers most of the time, but i do read Malay papers. I still prefer to buy a copy of paper early in the morning, it is a habit actually, hard to give up, though most of the news can be readily read from tablet and smartphone.
Change of Blog Name
I have finally decided to change the blog name to better reflect the content of this site. This is supposed to be a blog for what i thought and practiced as a Buddhist. Keeping everything in Mandarin proving to be too troublesome for me as i didn't really spend time on PinYin input on Windows. That's ok, let's keep that religious thing in my heart. This blog will be used for documenting whatever i read..and for some current events. Nothing big.

Sungai Long....dirty place
That's all I can say, despite I like here. It is just so dirty, rubbish everywhere. Just feel so disappointed with all these bullshit politics who claimed they can do better. I just feel being cheated.
