Mangrove declining. we need to replant them for better environment and food security.

Kedah Coastline need to be planted with mangrove and probably coconut. BUT before that we need to study the possibility of reclaim the whole coastline. They are muddy and good for local fisheries.

Installing a home security system can be costly, but not installing one could cost you even more. That is the advertisement or necessary? If it is necessity, Why? we have a social problem!

Studies at colleges or universities just a beginning. How you performed after graduated from the uiversities is the important one. Work hard at young age with good plan. End at the peak of your career with happiness and satisfaction..

Why we need to do recycle? Over the last decade humans have produced 10 times as much plastic as we have in the last century, and each year we throw away enough of the material to circle the earth 4 times. Americans alone throw away approximately 35 billion water bottles a year, all of which are still in existence in some form or another as plastic takes anywhere from 500-1000 years to disintegrate. The moral of this story? We use way too much plastic and that needs to change, or we (and the environment) could be faced with some serious consequences.

Leadership not come from the sky but need long process of development formally or informal

Go to the highest level to tell your ideas. They will appreciate your ideas BUT when come to implementation is another questions.

We need more knowledge on basic ecology, forest ecology, river ecology, soil science etc. Then with basic knowledge we can think better and make better decision. When we deal with environmental issues we need to think a lot and dont work alone.

Its viral again. Look like many are not happy with their working environment. We need to look at happiness index at our work place. a challenge for the head of department.

After 6 years in Council (including 4 years as vice president) now I try for a president of MNS. I plan to strengthen secretariat of MNS, branches and bring back MNS image at higher level. MNS is the oldest nature based society. I am sure we can increase members when MNS is respected by public and dominant society in Malaysia.

Did you know that The Malayan tiger is the smallest species of tiger along with the Sumatran tiger. The smaller size helps them to remain unseen in the clearer parts of our forest Sign and support SAVE TIGER CAMPAIGN!!!

Do you know where Malaysia’s biggest marine park is? The Tun Mustapha Park (TMP), officially launched just last month, covers almost one million hectares of seas (898,762 to be exact). And it includes the marine areas around our country’s largest island – once again, moving beyond peninsula-centric ideas of Penang or Langkawi, this is Pulau Banggi, an hour by ferry from Kudat town in north Sabah.

Leadership is about understanding and make people understand the vision. Sharing and implementing together as a team. Academic Staff association gather leaders to share aspiration and vision.

Talent development is a continuous effort. We start with young age and continue until we got matured, high skills and talented staff. If we just wait and see and talking we wont never get good and highly talented staff. When times come we just pick based on hearsay. then we complain that we have poor and low quality leaders. We dont want to inherit that anymore!!

Sometime in our culture dont believe in our own people. people from outside trust us more, May be they dont feel threaten. Even MP collecting my ideas for their parliamentary session. We need to change our attitude if we want to be at world class.

vertigo: Vertigo is the feeling that you or your environment is moving or spinning. It differs from dizziness in that vertigo describes an illusion of movement. When you feel as if you yourself are moving, it's called subjective vertigo, and the perception that your surroundings are moving is called objective vertigo.http://www.emedicinehealth.com/vertigo/article_em.htm

Mangrove ecosystems is another important ecosystems need to be protected. We need more locals to participate in protecting and conserving our mangrove ecosystems.
