OBAMA

Yaa..Sekarang dia sudah bergelar presiden, nanti dulu... Lihat siapa disekelilingnya... Orang bilang, jika mahu kenal siapa diri kamu, lihatlah orang-orang disekelilingmu....

Hillary Clinton - Secretary of State
Mungkin kembalinya ke White House mengimbas kenangan lamanya di situ sebagai First Lady dalam lingkungan tahun 1990an. Jangan lupa pentadbiran Clinton yang sungguh militan dan polisinya yang brutal. Semasa berkempen dahulu Obama sendiri bercerita betapa HC mendokong perang ke atas Iraq bahkan HC sendiri semasa berkempan lterang-terangan enggan bertolak ansur terhadap isu Iran. Aduhai sayang..

Robert Gates - Defence Secretary
Jawatan dikekalkan semenjak pentadbiran Bush. Bahkan pernah menjadi Direktor CIA. Bos lama takkan dilupa..

Rahm Emanuel - White House Chief of Staff
Pro-Israel tegar!!

John O Brennan - Adviser on Intelligence Matters & Co-leader of Obama's transition team
Semasa pentadbiran Bush, Brennan mendokong tindakan menangkap dan menyiksa tahanan di tempat rahsia seluruh dunia sebagai kaedah penting penyiasatan. Huh??!!

General James Jones - calon National Security Advisor
Merupakan teman rapat Mc Cain dan terang-terangan menentang sebarang rancangan menarik keluar tentera Amerika dari Iraq.

Ramai lagi dalang-dalang lama Bush dan Clinton disekeliling Obama termasuklah Robert Rubin dan Lawrence Summers. Sudahlah, wahai dunia, jangan gembira tak terkata, lihat dari tindak dan kerja. Sungguh rakyat Palestin lebih realistik, bila ditemuramah tentang Obama, mereka langusng tak punya harap, kerana bagi mereka pemimpin Amerika semua sama. Apapun, moga keajaiban berlaku dengan izin tuhan..moga polisi tidak menjadi basi dan biar siapa pun disekeliling dia tetap menerusakn misi..Namun..eloklah jangan terlalu berharap...

Transition

Sometimes I wonder if I would still blog after I go back for good since it always turns out that I don’t really blog whenever I return to Malaysia. I’m back in Melbourne again. Despite everything I said about this place. I'm always thankful that I’m studying here. 8 hours is long enough, can’t imagine going further. Let alone going back during a short winter break like I just did. Haha… However, regardless how good Melbourne is, coming back here is never easy. It is not the place, it’s the transition. Travelling is tiring. Yes, like yesterday, I had to take two flights, one from Penang to KL, then KL to Melb, it is a lot more tiring for someone like me who could barely sleep in a plane. That’s why I enjoy traveling during the day and taking a window seat. I enjoy day dreaming while staring at those fluffy white clouds. Haha.. Weather change changes everything. I had never went back during winter before. So that was my first time experiencing an abrupt change from a...

Willful Ignorance

I was too busy with architecture for the last few weeks.. . haven’t really got a chance to get my head around what’s going on in the world, especially back home in Malaysia. I felt detached from reality. I felt like I was living in ignorance. I felt guilty. Therefore, since I finished my final presentation yesterday (still got 2 submissions coming though)… Today, I decided to take a day off from architecture. I went out for a good lunch with a friend, had some retail therapy… and came back, get on the internet and try to update myself with some of the current issues. I read. I read. I read and I read. As a result. I feel sick. And I still feel guilty, way worse… I feel guilty and hopeless for knowing things I could never really do anything about. I know... I know...I know I’m a little behind. But I still need to put more efforts in understanding the following issues, I’m feeling lost and mentally constipated just by reading one or two news/articles/blogposts about them. 1. ...

Kerja Tak Siap Lagi!

I guess one of the real problem with Malaysian Architecture is it lacks of publication even on the internet. I have been browsing for Malaysian architecture these few days and surprisingly I found that there are many amazingly great projects back home. I stumbled upon many photos of interesting designs that I wish I could dig further for my assignment. But it is frustrating that how brief most of the information is. I also wonder if having a website is such a big deal (expensive, is it?) since not many firms have a website, let alone a good one. Some websites I have to say are not inviting at all. Many use dark/navy blue as the primary color, why is it? I don’t hate blue, but it’s not tasty at all as an architecture website… I also found some real good architects who keep blogs, but the problem with a blog is, it depends on the updates. Therefore, even if it is a current project (since some projects run for years), but if the post was 7 months ago, the blog seems abandoned. Besides, it...
