Halimah Bachik

Few weeks ago I went to my old school, STAR to attend its 50 years celebration. Nothing much can be shared with you since I'm not engaged in all of the activities held...not trying to be passive but I think being an observer should be enough for me to escape from the burden in the faculty...heheh!! Thanx to doyok for the drive...

It was really nice to see back my friends there even though only a few of us was able to make it there...what make me excited was to have a breakfast in Halimah Bachik restaurant in Taman Chempaka...hahah!! What a great meal...kuey teow bandung kat situ mmg masyuk...siut lame gile ah tak makan...sume org dalam tuh masih same..dari yg tukang canai roti..pakcik jage kaunter...pakcik masak mee bandung ngan abg buat air...takde yg bertukar...fuhh!!

"bile lagik nak makan nih...??"

V for Vegetarian [part 1]

Yo…wassup!! Did you know anything about blood type diet?meaning that you taking certain types of food that is suitable to your blood type…wahh!!canggih tuh…pelik kan?
There is one popular book on diet entitled ‘Eat Right for Your Type’ by Dr D’Adamo…quite interesting jugaklaa his explanation about the relations of the blood type to the types of food we take…evidence based medicine tuh…ade scientific proof lagik…termakan jugaklaa dakyah2 die tuh…

Mine is type A+…means V.E.G.E.T.A.R.I.A.N!!!!!!!!!!!!Noooooo!!It can’t be like that….am I born to be vege??wah…this is unacceptable…here are some of the discoveries…check it out!!

“Type A flourishes on vegetarian diets. When you get on the Type A Diet, you will naturally be thinner”
= bole caye ke nih? Naturally be thinner? WoW!!

“When Type As eat meat, they experience sluggishness. Type As have low stomach-acid content, therefore they have a hard time digesting meat. Since Type As eat very little animal protein, nuts and seeds supply an important protein component”
= a’ah…btol laa…mmg btol pon rase camtuh…patutlaa!!

“Vegetables are vital to the Type A Diet, providing minerals, enzymes and antioxidants”
“Tofu should be a staple in the Type A Diet”
= ok la…since I also like tofu fah…cheap also maa…RM1!!

“Type As are predisposed to heart disease, cancer, and diabetes”
= damn!!dahlaa tak bole makan daging…senang pulak nak dapat mende alah nih…takkan nak jadik kambing ngan lembu kot…meragut jek!!

In conclusion…after analyzing the above statements…I decided to abandon the advise…hahahah!!! Even though this way of dieting is not clinically proven but it helps those who were already failed with the other way…it is worth trying rather than keep on ballooning like me…hahah!!!

Kenape Saye Musti Kurus

Ohoi!! Long time no see…quite a long time tak tulis blog…bukan takde idea…tapi takde mase…cerite mmg banyak nak bagitau tapi mmg takde mase…baru abis posting primary care & palliative care medicine dgn population health & preventive medicine…banyak field works..tuh yg balik bilik terus tido baik punye sampai pagi…

Walaupon lambat wish..takpelaa…selamat tinggal puasa sekali…hohoho!!!

4. INTERHEART Study
You know about this? Em…simply speaking it is the study that has been conducted all over the world in 52 countries involving more than 200,000 people…they concluded that whatever you are, wherever you live…all of us share 9 common risk factors for coronary heart diseases…and one of the 9 is abdominal obesity…fuhh!!future doc pon nak dapat CHD kaa??ini tak bole jadik..penat2 belaja…mati awal…cehh!!

5. DLL
Ape lagik sebab ehh? Can you tell me…other than above laa..banyak lagik tapi tak significant kot…lantaklaa

Warisan Cemerlang, Gemilang, Terbilang

Taken from Bulletin; Article Review by Afif Bahardin: UiTM, MOHE vs KekKWa, MOH


Dalam kita memperjuangkan keseimbagan ekonomi antara kaum di Malaysia ini masih ada puak2 Melayu dan Cina di dalam Kerajaan yang cuba mengagalkan usahamurni ini...UiTM telah menubuhkan FakultiPerubatan(2003)dan Fakulti Pergigian(2006)bagi mengimbangi influksi graduan bukan Melayu dari IPTS2 dalam bidangberkenaan.



Tujuan UiTM tak lain adalah untuk memecah monopoli bangsa Cina dan India dalam bidang kesihatan di Malaysiai ni. UiTM telah mengorak langkah setapak kehadapan dengan usaha mewujudkan sebuah Hospital UiTM di tanah seluas 16 hektar di tapak 'LAMA' Pusta Kusta Negara yang sekarang ini diduduki secara haram oleh tauke-tauke nurseri dan rumah2 bekas pesakit kusta kini diduduki oleh PATI2 yang berkerja di nurseri2 haram kepunyaan Cina di sekitar kawasan itu. Amatlah malang apabila Menteri Kesihatan kita adalah seorang Cina yang tidak mendokong aspirasi nasional bagi mewujudkan perpaduan antara kaum...seorang menteri yang terang2meng'halal'kan tindakan Wee keparat mengolah lagu Negaraku bagi menghina agama Islam dan orang Melayu. Dan sekarang ini dengan lantang ingin mengagalkan usaha UiTM melahirkan pakar,doktor, doktor gigi, radiographer,pegawai makmal dan semua personel dalam bidang kesihatan di negara ini.



Dengan tertubuhnya Hospital UiTM, maka lebih ramai graduan dapat dilahirkan. Menteri ini bukan hanya mencabar ketuanan Melayu di bumi bertuah ini. Malah dgn lantang mengdeklarasikan perang ke atas institusi orang Melayu yangberhak untuk mendapatkan fasiliti dan hak pendidikan setaraf dengan sesiapajuga di dunia ini. Pusat kusta itu adalah satu contoh detik hitam negara yang meninggalkan kesan mendalam ke atas pesakit dan keluarga. Tetapi dtg seorang Menteri Melayu bodoh yang terang2 kata kita perlu menjadikan pusat itu sebagai warisan negara.

Kenapa sekarang? 2003 UiTM telah merencana projek ini dan apabila diluluskan JKR, projek terus dijalankan... kawasan yang terlibat hanyalah sedikit berbanding keluasan sebenar kawasan... dr segi legal UiTM telah melaksanakan kerja yangbetul dan mengikut lunas undang2. Kenapa baru skrg isu ini timbul? Kenapa apabila pembinaan Hospital Sungai Buloh yang baru dan Kolej Kesihatan yang secara terang2 telah merobohkan hospital lama dan merobohkan sebahagian kawasanPusat Kusta tidak pula dijadikan isu? tapi apabila UiTM ingin membina Hospital UiTM menjadi isu pula??? Hanyalah penjara dankedai dobi sahaja yang dirobohkan..isu ini timbul apabila Menteri Cina itu berasa dengki dan iri hati dengankemajuan yang dicapai UiTM. Hendak dipertahankan tauke2 nurseri semuanya duduk secara haram.. maka dengan liciknya dia menggunakan si bodoh menteri Melayu untuk kononnya menjadikan kawasan itu warisan negara..Tujuan si Cina tidak lain adalah untukmembolehkan UTAR menggunakan hospital Sg Buloh... satu taktic kotor yang cukup terangcang... menteri Melayu yang dariJ ohor ini begitu bodoh hingga tidak nampak niat tersembunyi di sebalik konspirasi mengagalkan usaha UiTM ini.

Kalau lah nak sangat buat bangunan jadi warisan.. apa kata ladang Babi HARAM di Linggi Melaka itu dijadikan warisan negara.. kan tmpt tu ladang BABI terbesar Asia Tenggara.. apa lagi buatlah warisan negara... BODOH punya menteri Melayu yang tak tau nak membela bangsa sendiri...si menteri melayu bodoh lebih rela mengorbankan pendidikan anak bangsa untuk sebuah kawasan warisan yang nilai estetikanya tidaklah setinggi mana...byk lg bangunan lain yang terletak di Kuala Lumpur menunggu masa saja untuk roboh... tp di mana KEKKWA dan menterinya dalam isu ini.. 100% takde sapa akan melawat pusat kusta andai ia di warta warisan negara.. hanya orang gila,dengki, membabi buta dan otak di lutut sahaja yang akan pergi melawat tempat sedemikian rupa. Pada Pak Lah... andai kata BN menang pilihan raya depan.. saya menyarankan agar Pak Lah meletakkan menteri Melayu bagi jawatan menteri Kesihatan supaya lebih byk hospital dan khidmat kesihatandi bina di tmpt populasi Melayu.

Autumn on My Head

Can you see any abnormality in this picture?

Well well...it's come again when I'm not in a good mood...thinking about what I've gained and lost after almost 5 years in this hell of medicine...in summary there were not much improvements... kalo nak pikir mende yg meningkat naik atau bertambah adalah seperti berikut:-

1. Stress
2. Tanggungjawab
3. Topik2 yg perlu dibaca, dipahami, diingati
4. Berat badan [most prominent!!]
5. Lain2 yg berkaitan

So..ape yg turun, susut atau gugur?tak berape nak banyak sgt...adelah sikit2

1. Tidur [konon studylaa...]
2. Rambut!!

Cakap pasal rambut nih...tak tau nak cakapla sebenarnye...2 3 menjak nih baru perasan macam ade yg tak kena...rase mcm normal jek...tapi bile pagi2 sikat rambut tuh...mmg jelas dan nyata perubahannya...ingat sementare tapi makin lame makin menggila..heh!!but I'm still consider it to be a normal phenomenon cause the loss area is typical of temporal recession of a man...hahah!!

Yang tak tahannye, dah kurang kat atas...yg bwah pulak banyak...opps!!bukan yg bawah tuh... atas sikit dari yg kat bawah tuh...heheh!!ape2 jekla...aku tgh bengung nih nak exam..besela!!nak tgk Mlaysia kalah bola lagik nih..tak tau sempat bace ke tak...wah!!

Forever Loser

A Tribute to Malaysia National Football Team

Luahkan perasaan anda supaya mereka tahu bukan mereka sahaja yang menderita tapi penyokong2 juga merasai kepahitannya apabila dipermainkan di tempat sendiri...adakah ini kali pertama berjumpa dan bermain dengan bola? Nampak semuanya serba tak kena...huh!!

Once upon a time...

A Tribute to Malaysia National Football Team

A force in Asian football in the late 1970s, Malaysia have suffered a sharp drop-off in recent years and enter the 2007 AFC Asian Cup as the lowest-ranked of the 16 teams.

One of the earliest bastions of football in Asia, Malaysia played an integral role in the development of the sport in the continent as a founder member of the Asian Football Confederation in 1954 and their national team have been involved in every edition of the Asian Cup since 1956.

And for a time in the 1970s, the country’s national team were a genuine power on the continent, reaching the final round of the Asian Cup in 1976 and 1980 and also qualifying for the Olympic Games in 1972 and 1980.

Having topped a qualification group that included Korea Republic in 1976, Malaysia made their first Asian Cup appearance in Iran in a three-team group that also featured Kuwait and China, only to fall at the first hurdle.

The South East Asian side would be frustrated once again four years later when they narrowly failed to make the semi-final cut in Kuwait City, when a draw with Qatar saw eventual winners Kuwait progress to the last four instead.

The 1980 tournament would prove the high watermark for the Malaysian national team, as they failed to qualify for the next six Asian Cups, narrowly missing out on the 1996 finals after finishing runners-up to Indonesia in their qualification group.

In the 2004 qualifiers, they put themselves into a good position to reach the finals in China with draws against Iraq and Bahrain in the first round of matches in Kuala Lumpur.
But they lost all three of their return matches in Manama with an embarrassing 2-1 defeat to Myanmar putting paid to their qualification hopes once again as Malaysia’s disappointing record in continental competition continued.

Malaysia’s ranking reached an all-time low of 33rd in Asia and 157th in the world in January but they gave fans something to cheer that same month when they reached the semi-finals of the Asean Football Championship despite a 1-0 defeat to Thailand in the group stage.

The four-time SEA Games gold-medallists were within sight of their first appearance in the Asean final since 1996 when Eddy Helmi Manan gave them a 2-1 aggregate lead against Singapore in the second leg of their semi-final.

However, Ridhuan Muhammad’s equaliser 16 minutes from time forced the match into extra time and a penalty shootout, which was won by the island republic side after Khyril Muhymeen missed Malaysia’s final attempt.

Despite that near miss, Malaysian fans are far from optimistic about the prospects of Norizan Bakar’s side at the Asian Cup and progress to the knockout stage from a group that includes Iran, China and Uzbekistan does indeed appear unlikely for the co-hosts and one-time powers of Asian football.

Coach Profile

Norizan Bakar

DoB: 27/01/1961

Nationality: Malaysian

Appointed: Sept 2005

When former Hungarian international Bertalan Bicskei was removed as head coach of Malaysia just before the South East Asian Games in 2005, the FA of Malaysia turned to then Penang coach Norizan Bakar.

Norizan was an assistant to both Abdul Rahman Ibrahim and Allan Harris from 1999 to 2003 before leaving to take charge of Perlis in 2003. He had a successful time with the Northern Lions, guiding them to an FA Cup final in 2003 before winning the coveted Malaysia Cup in 2004.

Seeking a fresh challenge, he took charge at Penang the next season but the islanders struggled, escaping relegation by virtue of goal difference. Rubbing salt into the wound, Perlis ran away with the league title with Pahang 10 points behind in second place.

The former Perlis forward was given only two months to whip the Malaysia team into shape for the 2005 SEA Games and managed to guide the team to a bronze medal finish in the Philippines. That was enough to convince the FAM to stop looking for a foreign coach and allow Norizan to continue with the team.

A poor showing at the invitational Merdeka Tournament in the build up to the Asean Football Championship had the critics baying for his blood but the FAM kept faith in Norizan. He came close to taking the team to their first Asean football final since 1996, losing on penalties to neighbours Singapore in the semi-final.

With Malaysia in what Norizan had quickly termed the group of death for the Asian Cup with Iran, China and Uzbekistan for company, not many Malaysian fans will expect much from the 48-year-old at possibly the biggest tournament of his career.
