What is the main problem of the suburbs

Egocentrism is when one is over preoccupied with their own internal world. Egocentrics regard oneself and one's own opinions or interests as most important or valid. Self-relevant information is seen to be more important in shaping one’s judgements than do thoughts about others and other-relevant information (Windschitl, Rose, Stalkfleet & Smith, 2008). It also generates the inability to fully understand or to cope with other people's opinions and the fact that reality can be different from what they are ready to accept despite any change in their personal belief.


 I had a press conference on Monday. And this press conference was about The Innovation of Ideas. No Media showed up. More than 40 emails sent out to community leaders, media and Universities. - No one showed up. And this is where the main problem starts.

The next day, i went to every news agency i could in ipoh. And i went looking for all these people whom i had emailed, and they actually don't know if they got my email or not, or that they sent it to their editor without reading it,  that they actually just said. - oh it's not in my schedule. and ignored the fact that they have an email.

And then i realized, why ipoh is so dead.

Because these people. Never learnt Email. The processes of communications are so 1990. - They never updated themselves to the 21st century. That they have no idea how to work efficiently or to work better. But they work and focus to the point where only they matter. They Matter. nothing else matters. They've become illiterate. And that is why Ipoh is dead.

After meeting these people. They're surprised that this project is actually based in ipoh and that they want interviews. Calls, interests, everyone wanted in. . This illiteracy wasted my entire Tuesday. From what i've heard, they would only show up at a press conference if a BigShot/VIP person is there. Or else it's silence.

The reason why the people of ipoh are completely loosing out on life is because there's no communications. And this is one of the reasons why. - That no one cares. You've got to butter them up, or no one cares.

What i could have done in 2 hours at a press conference, in Ipoh, - It took me 8 hours to do.

Ipoh is only slow because it's people are uneducated. It's about time we brought them up to speed. :)
It's all in the pipeline.

Could you imagine this! Gorgeous!

This is an absolutely gorgeous piece of stop motion. Imagination taken far and into animation.
You have no idea how difficult it is to have people in stop motions. Complicated. This is very well done :)

Can you possibly force your brain to Think out of its pace. Like Mathematics. If you can't see it in the exam, skip the question?

That up there would be my plans for World Domination. Where my alien friends I would build from scratch and put it all together and TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!

I'm actually writing this post cause i've been working on that World Domination plan for 7 months. I've been working on it for 7 MONTHS!!! Spent RM15,000 on Research, Development and Travels and I'm really really glad that it's FINALLY Done. Just absolutely Finally Done. And that I have a clear Black and White 30+ page document that can fully explain in detail of how i can take over the world. It's called the CM5. The Connecting Mechanism 5. And it's going to build ASEAN (after that ASIA) into a knowledge base economy. And I am going to pour my soul into this for the next 20 years of my life. And i know that I am going to love it.

But i'm frustrated, cause www.abaf.asia (Asian Business Angel Forum) , I missed the submissions. It's not that I didn't get selected. Cause i think i would have been fine if i didn't get selected. It kinda tells me that I need to work on it more. Work on the mechanism more. But i just completely missed out on it. I missed it. And I'm pissed at myself.

But then, I couldn't build the mechanism Fast enough, in preparations for the Conference either. For some reason, i was stuck. I've been stuck with the Mechanism until a month ago. Yeah i had the details, what to do, how to do it, - But i couldn't see the whole Bigger picture. It was like a barrier i couldn't push through.

I had a friend. He's like an Ex-Executive Director of this Hedge Fund, and he on the spot forced me to explain to him what i'm doing, pitch style 3 minutes. And i just blurted whatever out. - Then i got sooo pissed with myself and couldn't get over at how pathetic that was. - After that I couldn't stop thinking about the Mechanism. Day in Day Out. - That's all I did. - AND Bing* 2 weeks ago, I started typing it up. I started putting it all together.


And now, it's so finally done.
Just absolutely down and done, and i only wish i could pitch it this week. So  i'm still frustrated that i missed www.abaf.asia .

 I guess that sometimes. - There are just those things that you can't force fast enough.
My Fingers Crossed, Here's to hoping i would never need to miss another conference EVER again.

When there's nothing to loose anymore.

Let go.
Let go of it all and fall.
Let go of it all and fall deeper and deeper into the darkness.
Let nature take its course and pull you deep into the darkness.
Loose your sight
Hear nothing
Feel the air flowing
Breathe

..... and let it allllll go.

What happened from the 1960s when the East met West.

A friend of mine, Rahul Darnal. We used to talk and there was this thing he said 

: Hey! Did you know Loneliness is an Illness?? 

i think i was 17 then. And that's when I realized, as Asians, we have never emphasized Mental Health. We've but literally put it aside that our capabilities are beyond the norm. So we push ourselves aggresively and cunningly getting anything that we want. Tearing up the Harmonious Social Fabric that was once built of Philosophies from the Indian and Chinese Cultures. 

And so we end up being Half East-Half West. 

Which makes much sense doesn't it? How many CEOs do you know who are happy and round. They call it Prosperity :) Like that fat Bald God of Gold and Money. God of Prosperity. ...... . I'm now not entirely sure if i have the right god. 

Individualistic Lifestyles . 

It's Lonely. But no one realizes that it's not worth the while. I personally think that everyone should work in a closely knitted team. Pull the load, bring them all along. It's more FUN!. But everyone's kinda busy watching out closely on their backs. 

Had an Ex-. He used to say: Ya know! These days? As a kid you can't run out on the road anymore. Back when I was a kid(in Penang) you could run out on the street anytime. Go to anyone's house, and the community around would make sure you got home safe. That doesn't exist today!. 

I think it's about time we changed that once again. What if we got rid of the way we currently lived. And made our lives better. More meaningful. Better, Stronger and that we focused on our strengths rather than on our weaknesses and making them strong. What if possibilities are there and you didn't know about it. 

I have an idea. This is a brilliant Indian Cultural Idea. East meets West? 

I've been in Ipoh for about a continuous 2 months now. or so. - 

and Everytime I talk to anyone about MASSIVE! They get either, excited or go into shock and can't comprehend it ever happening here. 

The shocked reactions of what people imagine, by Market Research Standards it has shown me, 

This is what people want. 

This is what people wish they have

This is where we need to be and to do. 

IPOH is ready for the taking. But they upkeep the traditions of the old. They want QUALITY. 

And that is exactly what we are Going to give Them. 

I've finally decided on my EXIT for MASSIVE!. Therefore. Lets begin 

Lets really build the East to meet the West. and then, we shall Vice Versa (West meets East) . 

Those robes are just so FRENCH aren't they?Sounds like a photoshoot waiting to happen.  

HOLI!!! The Festival of Colors.

About a month ago, i went to a Festival. The Holi Festival. I'm from Malaysia. So Malaysia has Indians, but they're from the southern part of India, Goa, Sri Lanka. etc. So what happened was that my Punjabi friend said, I'm going for Holi tomorrow.

 ME      : aawww.. I wish i could go for a holiday too. Just so packed with work. Where you going?
 Friend : HOLI! not HOLIDAY. It's a Indian Festival where they throw colored powder in the air.
 ME      : OH!!! HAHAHAHA. I thought you were leaving the country. Cool. So it's those religious stuff lah. What should i wear? It's a Religious thing right? Should wear decent and such.
 Friend : errr. - Where a white top and a long skirt or something. It'll be at a Temple. Bring extra clothes. Might get a bit dirty.
 ME      : OK.


 SUNDAY. Friend drove.

- When we arrived. I saw Water Guns. I look at my friend. OMG!!! THEY HAVE WATER GUNS? @_@ What sorta festival is this?

 

This was held at Kuala Lumpur. A temple in Sentul.

Demon Dog getting lots of pets. It was so adorable. :) 

This is the pot where everyone gets tossed into for the sake of "FUN" and then they'll hose you down. I got dunked here too. Yeah they just picked me up and carried me like a Pig ready for roasting. Dropped me in the pot and Sprayed. It was epic cold.. 

I have a feeling it's actually a normal cooking pot. But the cooking pot's epic huge no? 

She was like the Tomb Raider of the day. Sprayed everyone and everywhere. This is a picture where she's putting the colored powder into the gun for epic Color Splash. 

Pretty tiring. I'm just uber glad i attended something like this. I never knew it existed. IT MUST BE DONE
 over and over again. 

 another idea.
