8-year-old whiz designs with FPGAs

I can only manage to play simple PC games when I was 8 years old. So this kid plays around with FPGA. He is also doing promotion for Actel. :)

Extend Your Network Coverage using WiFi

If you could not find a long cable for extending your network coverage, perhaps from building to building, you can simply use the wireless card to do so. Just ensure the necessary tools, such as Ethernet bridging and WDS features in the wireless card. Then, you can make a connection as shown in the diagram. All the clients will have the same subnet. It’s easy!

Missing Files

When you are going to leave your current job, you are normally required to hand over all the documents, files, or computerized materials to the new comer. If I were fired or I were asked to step down unwillingly, I will try to made the newcomer life difficult. How? Ask him or her to start from the scratch. Ask him or her to go around for the documents. Ask him or her to not forget to deliver although I myself should do this or that last time……

The Peoples are Looking for More

There was nothing special in the new lineup of Pak Lah’s cabinet. Normal, nothing special! Peoples maybe get excited with new faces in cabinet last time, but I believe that no more now. Even with Rafidah being opted out, there are still “corrupted” or “going to be corrupted” faces in the cabinet. Peoples demand more than that. Peoples are excited with new governments in Penang, Perak, Kedah and Selangor. Not the old style BN government. It’s ridiculous for UMNO to call up a gathering in Komtar without proper demands. No memorandum and no purposes at all. At the mean time, you see that Utusan and Bernama are trying to create races tensions using “twist and turn” reports. Sometimes, I just don’t understand why.

Respect Yourself, Uncle Lim!

Uncle Lim! Don’t be arrogant! Peoples choose you and they can turn against you as well. Please install the correct and capable persons to lead the state. Don’t practice cronyism yourself. Be aware! You only have 4 years to prove yourself. Don’t go into unnecessary quarrels and conflicts. I know that it is always frustrated the constitution is written as that. But what you can do? I accept that there will be conflicts amongst coalition but we should keep these to minimum. I understand that you afraid of Islamic state policies. Yes, you afraid of losing the votes and support from Chinese. But you should open your mind. If all work together and getting the good results in 4 years time, will peoples vote against you? Get to work quickly. Don't waste time! I urge you to step down as Opposition Leader in Parliament. Give others an opportunity!

This is Just the Beginning!

We all are excited with the outcomes of this general election. Newly formed government in 4 states and denied 2/3 majority of BN in parliament!

BN still hold very strong machinery in this election. Still a long way for a truly democratic nation….

I really hope that Selangor, Perak, Kedah and Penang with the new MBs and CM will start to make changes…..

Penang Economy Downturn

If this is true, then it’s sad that we have to do this to attract the foreign investors. I am really sad to see my home state has to do this. The federal state should help but not by such a way. If this is really our “Malaysian” style, then why we need to spend our money developing our human capitals? How many projects are we able to award and offer to? So, if Intel wants to pull out from Penang, does the government need to launch a campaign to promote Intel chipset or force our government officials to use only Intel’s PC. If we do sincerely develop and give equal opportunities to all Malaysian, I strongly believe that Malaysia is good enough to produce talented Engineers to attract foreign companies to setup their not only their manufacturing factories but also R&D center here. If Dr. Koh is doing this, is this mean that he is not getting enough support from the federal state and starts to “assimilate”? If then, should we blame him? The question now is that whether the next CM in power will have "free hand" to run the state.
