No way we can recover back to nature. Thank you The Star for continuously highlight the environmental issues eventhoug sometime a bit late.

Many years people are talking about climate change destroy habitat and wildlife. May be start from now we talk about climate change killing rich and powerful people and destroy their properties and make their family homeless and not enough food. Then may be every body care and listen to the scientist advice.
All these not because of yesterterdays problems but many years a go......

Do we need primate research centre in Malaysia? With over populated of Macaca fascicularis and reduction population of other primates; conservation of primate, human interaction with non-human primates and new emerging diseases that need vaccine developnent and testing may be other forms of research on primates need to be considered.
Non-human Primate distribution in the world are limited as shown in the above map
research show some difference in morphology of monkey from diffrent geographical location
Non-human primate interaction with human need to be studied. many factors that involve such as diseases, feelings and believes.
Before non-human primates organise research and conference, human must move first.
Coral Triangle Initiative (CTI): How far it is important to Malaysia scientifically, economically and politically? How far our authority put effort to do research in the area, organise scientific meetings, identify exerts involve in the fields and plan for the future? Do we put right leaders to lead the discussion? right now before too late.
Look at these two maps then Malaysia should look forward on the importance of CTI. It is far from America and Japan BUT they put more effort. WHY? How about China?
UPM started this idea in 2004/5 but there is not continuity. Now few clubs grow in UPM just for recreation and social activities. UPM-Cocacola Recycle to Cycle will be launched soon in UPM and will start with Faculty of Science. Need support from all. Come we start new culture for green and healthy life. Start collecting your empty can and bottles now for recycle programme in order to participate in a bicycle rental for a day.
The Star: Sunday August 26, 2012 MYT 10:04:00 PM
In Putrajaya, bicycle lanes have been built and they are suitable for cycling to the work place but the response had been rather poor because of various reasons such as unsuitable weather. Thus, the cycling culture to the work place or for recreation must be developed.
Plans to give incentives to promote cycling culture in Putrajaya:

High education background, high ranking in professional position, sometimes still primitive in giving ideas on nature conservation, nature activist, sustainable development and green technology.
We need to educate them, teach them more thinking and analysis
Bird's nest trading: Who is more important? supplier or customer. How science are challenged in bussiness.
Sunday July 22, 2012
Bird’s nest traders rally for help over import ban
“The industry has been hit very hard, with sales dropping by as much as 85% since China is our biggest importer,” said Carole, adding that bird’s nest prices had also dropped from RM4,000 per kg to just under RM2,000 in a year.
China halted bird’s nests imports from Malaysia last July, when samples taken from blood-red bird’s nests contained nitrite levels that did not meet its health standards.
A three-point resolution was passed to reject the requirement to install RFID tags, allow permissible nitrite content for raw, uncleaned nests up to 200 ppm and for details of a protocol on the entry of cleaned nests into China to be disclosed. China imposed that the nitrite content in bird's nest should not exceed 30 parts per million (ppm).
May be scientists can think how to help retired people to earn some incomes because modern and trendy life of granchildren and current generation. Algae culture may be one of the solution

Safe Tasik Chini Campaign: This time not just the experts should be asked to join BUT must look for the right experts with knowledge and integrity NOT just popularity.
Tasik Chini surrounded by development especially oil palm plantation; need a specific guidelines for development around Tasik Chini.
Land clearing right to the lake. No way to avoid surface runoff from going to the lake. Should be a buffer zone to avoid surface erosion causing sedimentation in the lake.
This construction change the nature of the lake which is very unique for the lake ecology, biodiversity and nature conservation.
The development definitely caused effects to local people especially the Orang Asli who depending on lake for their living.

Apple wins $1bn in patent suit against Samsung: Apple won more than $1 billion in a massive victory Friday over South Korean giant Samsung, in one of the biggest patent cases in decades -- a verdict that could have huge market repercussions.
Jay Parikh, the social network's VP of infrastructure
engineering has presented a few stats to explain how Facebook works on
Thursday, August 23. Everyday 2.5 billion of pieces of content are
exchanged, the 'like' button gets 2.7 billion hits and 300 million new photos
are uploaded. Facebook says it scans 105TB of data every half hour. More than 500 TB of data, the equivalent of the content of 20,000 single-layer Blu-ray discs, are processed by Facebook everyday. (MSN Updated: Thu, 23 Aug 2012 18:06:00 GMT | By Relaxnews).

It is produced by The Coca-Cola Company of Atlanta, Georgia, and is often referred to simply as Coke (a registered trademark of The Coca-Cola Company in the United States since March 27, 1944). Originally intended as a patent medicine when it was invented in the late 19th century by John Pemberton, Coca-Cola was bought out by businessman Asa Griggs Candler, whose marketing tactics led Coke to its dominance of the world soft-drink market throughout the 20th century.
