How far we can certainly say that banana leaves have better antibacterial properties against other common bacteria such as P. aeruginosa, E. aerogenes, P. mirabilis, S. flexneri,, Citrobacter, E. faecalis and S. aureus, the leaves are also quite effective against fungi such as Aspergillus terreus and Penicillium solitum and free from BPA (or bisphenol A – or even more accurately, 4,4’-dihydroxy-2,2-diphenylpropane).
In this age, the English language is the international language, lingua franca, and much of the knowledge comes to us in the English language, If we only master Bahasa Melayu we cannot actively move forward in the world, especially in the economic world, Mastering the English language is crucial to progress, especially in the fields of science and mathematics

Since 2006 I formed rugby team in USJ. The history cannot be changed. BUT MPSJ and schools still not making clear decision on allowing or make it official one rugby field in one of the schools in USJ or MPSJ.
Initiator of the programme Professor Madya Dr Ahmad Ismail said the rugby team was started because he felt rugby was a unique game that could develop strong teamwork.
“A pro tem committee has already been formed and the only thing pending is the official establishment of the Rugby Club of Subang Jaya.
“Once the club has been formed, we want to bring the seniors back to lead the current team. We have the cooperation of the community, schools and the Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ),” continued Ahmad. http://www.thestar.com.my/story/?file=%2f2006%2f8%2f12%2fcentral%2f15084723
You can have ideas but if you dont have time, expertise, money and power then you are just dreaming. Teaching film through film is very effective and practical.

Sunday, November 8, 2015
In the era of global rankings, higher education is becoming an increasingly competitive and global endeavour which requires senior academic and administrative managers, and evaluation and planning teams, who are not only intelligent, but also highly skilled in formulating appropriate strategic directions, and managing these strategies through to implementation. Success is only possible when university and college managers possess the required personal resources and skills to develop and sustain significant advantage in our highly competitive and increasingly complex higher education markets. Despite these requirements, most senior managers in higher education have found themselves in their roles as a result of their research and teaching excellence rather than their abilities as managers of large organisations.There are currently very few, if any, short strategic leadership and management workshops where existing and new leaders in higher education can work alongside some of their most successful colleagues from around the world, and learn some of the most proven approaches to effective strategic and organisational management. Consequently, this workshop is designed to bridge the skills gap for senior managers and leaders in the field of higher education, and provide a range of tools and skills which will equip them to excel in their challenging roles as academic and administrative leaders.
The Sarawak Government has announced the significant discovery of a new cave near Mulu, which is at least six million years old and possibly within the top 15 largest in the world.

It took Eavis a total of 24 expeditions to Mulu since his first attempt all the way back in 1977 to find this new cave, according to the Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC).
We need to organise good scientific expedition to uncover more natural history of this cave.
