Another international collaboration that need to be continued. We cannot stop here. all my work must be continued by the successor. Our leaders must wake up now make a fair assessment to the performers not hearsay under the blanket.

Thanks to me who make the opening to the university to collaborate with Pulau banding Foundation. But many just a ceremonial no follow through and worst think they do not appreciate and recognise the opener or the starter. Ceremonial is not the starter but just advertisement. we must follow through by actions!!!

Today One professor proudly showed me that his H index is 16 and citation just over 800. Some people are lucky doing small thing, talk loud and people look high to them. Some time hear say is more effective. Those who are truly excellence they said not yet excellence without looking at true achievement. In general we are still not professional enough in promoting and recognise academician or professors.

Most people who get liver cancer get it in the setting of chronic liver disease (long-term liver damage called cirrhosis), which scars the liver and increases the risk for liver cancer. Conditions that cause cirrhosis are alcohol use/abuse, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. The causes of liver cancer may be linked to environmental, dietary, or lifestyle factors.

Integrity of true academicuian is very important. We must develop an academic culture in our society and all must respect the professors.

learn about academic culture from competitive university. the way they present their university, the way they walk, the way they label their university and building and other look like they are in better academic culture.

It is a great challenges in front after we jump too fast in ranking. Especially very huge gaps between the seniour and juniours, current economy situation and leadership quality. What ever it is we must have good strategy and brave enough to move forwards.

An annual event: donation during ramadhan.

May be if you look scroll through my blog you will see my suggestion on using electric car for local patrolling or deliveries activities to keep urban areas clean and green. In Shanghai we can see police use electric car to patrol urban areas and more electric motorbike.

Food security not just talking and ceremonial. we need to look at more wider angles and approaches. Environmental approach and carrying capacity are among the approaches that we need to look closely.

We need foreigners to come here to Malaysia to tell us what to do and we trust them more especially when we talk on nature and conservation. We should start to develop our local scientists on nature and conservation. we must respect and develop locals because of this is our country.

Something that Malaysia can learn from Hong Kong for better planning in new city, industry and transportation. They are not the best but something we can learn about the bad and the worse.

I have been attending this conference since 21 years ago. this series of conference really developed many young generations and groups of researchers. This is another group from Malaysia to continue the generations of researchers in ecotoxicology and marine pollution. Thanks to the initiator and the leader.

long term collaboration from students time to assistant and associate professor in Kagoshima University. Collaboration in medaka research

Four years ago nature education in Tawau Sabah. nature education should be non stop activities and develop more volunteers

In 2014, an estimated 1.4 million bottles, and 1,000 tonnes of plastic bags were thrown out each day. Read More : http://www.nst.com.my/news/2016/02/125381/plastic-paradise-hong-kongs-packaging-problem In conjunction with world ocean day we talked about how to reduce using p;astic bags so that less plastics go to the ocean and threaten marine lives.

Plastic bags are one of the most visible signs of the pollution problem that extends across our planet. It is rare to see a strip of road, river bank or sea front that does not have a few plastic bags littering the environment. The result, besides being an eyesore, is often the death of wildlife. The problems that plastic bags cause, however, do not begin and end with the littering of the environment and the filling of landfill sites. Plastic bags are created using energy and non-renewable resources such as oil. The creation of each new plastic bag sucks a little more out of the environment. Manage your plastic bags well if you really need it! Recycle them.

Saturday NO plastic bags day in many supermarkets. BUT they still sell the plastic bags! They should sell paper bags or boxes. Or shopping bags.

Even Coca-cola also celebrating Ramadan

working hard to bring up the university that we see now may be yesterday's generations, to maintain it is the current generation so that the future generations reading a positive history. Need a lot of brains, strategies, hard work, unity and actions.

We need to be more aggressive in fighting for habitat conservation not just ceremonial and publicity. We need to educate the public and the politician and the government officers who involve in making decision and actions.

If the areas already gazetted as protected area close monitoring is needed especially places near heavy public activities such as Tanjung Tuan. Need guided tour, education and enforcement officers. NGO like Malaysian Nature Society should help.

In Sungai Besar By Election, many including the ministers are talking about hornbills can be one of the attractions to the tourists, BUT they never asked who are the first to promote the ideas. May be we need academician or scientists to be a ministers.

Some like to feed animals like birds, some are scared of birds carrying diseases, caused dirty to the environment and preying on their ornamental plants. Monitoring needed to control population, diseases and other potential human birds conflicts.

How far we are concern about the source of blood cockles that are important to our locals fishermen. We need to understand the management of cockle culture areas not just the growth and the yield but other aspects that affect the growth and yield and the quality of the cockles.

World Ocean Day 8 June 2016 Theme: Healthy oceans, healthy planet

The ocean is the heart of our planet. Like your heart pumping blood to every part of your body, the ocean connects people across the Earth, no matter where we live. The ocean regulates the climate, feeds millions of people every year, produces oxygen, is the home to an incredible array of wildlife, provides us with important medicines, and so much more! In order to ensure the health and safety of our communities and future generations, it’s imperative that we take the responsibility to care for the ocean as it cares for us.

This year, the theme is Healthy oceans, healthy planet, and we’re making a special effort to stop plastic pollution.

Plastic pollution is a serious threat because it degrades very slowly, polluting waterways for a very long time. In addition, plastic pollution impacts the health of aquatic animals because animals including zooplankton mistake the microbeads for food. Scientists also fear health impacts for humans.

The United Nations will celebrate World Oceans Day 2016 and recognize the winners of the Annual World Oceans Day Oceanic Photo Competition at an event on 8 June 2016 at the United Nations Headquarters.

Why do we celebrate World Oceans Day?

• To remind everyone of the major role the oceans have in everyday life. They are the lungs of our planet, providing most of the oxygen we breathe.
• To inform the public of the impact of human actions on the ocean.
• To develop a worldwide movement of citizens for the ocean.
• To mobilize and unite the world’s population on a project for the sustainable management of the world's oceans. They are a major source of food and medicines and a critical part of the biosphere.
• To celebrate together the beauty, the wealth and the promise of the ocean.

Sharing information with neighboring countries to solve environmental issues

Seminar, symposium or conferences are a place for scientists to meet and exchange ideas and findings.

another alumni gathering. if one thousand alumni contribute 1000 RM each, we can get one million a year. One day university will have enough money to sustain.

when alumni meet. We need to meet more frequent and raise fund to keep professors in the universities.
