Random Thought 20100925

Some seems to keep asking me how I can be motivational to others most of the time? I pause and think.... Life is just too short to not be a good son or daughter who make his/her parents proud in anything, Life is also too short for not to be a person who stretch his arms to most length in things your heart really pursue. I just stand in your shoes and remind you that, that's all... ;-)

Human

Human are full of weakness, we cant be too cold or too hot, we cant live in water for too long, we cant fall from too high, we cant fly, we cant live without air, we cant be too hungry, we cant survive without water for more than 3 days, we... cant stop aging, we cant survive mentally without friends for a prolong period of time, we cant cure cancel...

We only have earth as a livable planet so far, we have only a thin layer of atmosphere between the outer space and oceans, we CAN chose not to pollute the air with not smoking, we CAN chose not to drink bottled water to reduce the wastage, we CAN chose trans-fat-free biscuit to stay healthier, we CAN care for others to stop little argue which may lead to WAR.

We are human. Not animal. We CAN chose smart act. Be smart, stop smoking.

InvestSTAR Group is entering a new ERA!

For the past few months, we have an Agency Supervisor who choose to 'plug in' into our InvestSTAR Group's - STAR System - Stage 01 and achieve some obvious preliminary results which includes:
1. Increased Sales Activities by consultants, this is reflected in the call back rate and questions collected from prospects to their supervisors and managers.
2. Increased Sales Volume by new consultants, this is reflected in the CAMS system.
3. Increased relationship and peer-pressure among teams within a same group.

The STAR System - Stage 02 will cover the remaining module:
1. To increase Good Group Culture.
2. To install general Good Group Practises and Guidelines.
3. To sub-divide all overgrown Teams to smaller Teams.
4. To promote a new Leader within each Team.
5. etc.

The good news is: Until today, this proven STAR System is still FREE!!!!!

But it will not be free forever and I expect 2011 will be the year we open up this system to be accessible to all Groups in PM KK. :-)

Made in Malaysia...

The following are true stories:

• A Malaysian politician had heart surgery in Singapore .
The operation was successful. During his recuperation, the politician wanted to thank his three skillful doctors, including an anesthesiologist.
He said: “Thanks to Singaporean doctors...”
“I'm sorry, sir. I'm from Malaysia,” interrupted one doctor.
“Me too.”
“Me as well.”

• When a Malaysian company wanted to develop a new township abroad, it entrusted the project to a Singapore multinational company.

The first time when they met, the Singapore company sent a team of seven people, including the chief executive officer, chief architect and chief financial officer.

The meeting went smoothly. They relaxed and chatted. The Malaysian company's director said:
“Durians from my hometown Kuala Pilah, Seremban taste the best. I'll treat you all next time when you come.”
“Really? What area in Kuala Pilah? I'm from Kuala Pilah, too!” said the Singapore company's chief executive officer.
Next, one by one, the other six from the Singapore team revealed their identities.
“I'm from Malacca.”
“I'm from Kuala Kangsar, Perak.”
“I grew up in Segamat.”
“My hometown is...”

And all of them were actually “made in Malaysia ”. There are countless similar stories around us. And there is always another story behind each story. Some were rejected by domestic universities while some were rejected by the government scholarship.

They couldn't get it even with 10 As while others got only 10 Bs. As leaving might be better than staying, they just went to a different world after crossing the Causeway.

There is a deep feeling for every story. According to Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF) statistics, about 785,000 Malaysians are currently working abroad and 44 percent of them are working in Singapore while the rest are working in other countries, including Hong Kong , China, Australia, Britain and the United States.
And two-thirds of them are professionals.

At the same time, most of the two million guest workers in Malaysia are from Indonesia, Bangladesh, Myanmar, India and Vietnam. They are engaged in work which does not require a high educational background but just a little bit of brains.

Low skill, low knowledge and, of course, low wages. Malaysia has become a country that exports brains while importing labourers, resulting in a serious deficit in the knowledge trade.

The government started to lure our talent abroad in 2000 by offering a variety of incentives, including tax concessions and other conditions.

It has been nearly 10 years but only 770 people responded, with an average of 80 talents returning a year. The 770 are just a small number of the total number of people working abroad. However, many of this small group of people still choose to leave again.
While many young people are not able to realize their dreams here and thus, they are packing and preparing to pursue their dreams in unfamiliar countries.

And they said that Malaysia wants to become a high-income country.
