International Conflict : Ethno-Religious Conflict in Myanmar

The ethno-religious conflict between Rakhine Buddhists and Rohingya Muslims in the northern part of Myanmar has been one of the most terrible tragedies of this year 2012. Although Myanmar government has been rewarded by lifting sanctions especially by the western countries and organizations like the US and the EU because of the government’s faster transition toward Democracy, this conflict has made human rights activists questioned whether the country’s transition is truly irreversible.

How to travel in Malaysia from/to airport

Hi guys, today I would like to share with you how to travel in Malaysia with the cheapest cost. Now i'm at the LCCT airport waiting for my flight at night around 8.40 pm and I will check in at 5 pm preventing long queue with not 100 % fit, and may God give me strength.

From LCCT/KLIA:

• when you arrive at the airport, you go outside and find the bus Shuttle counter near the door arrival. The price is around 8 RM from LCCT to Puduraya or you can go to KL Sentral. Because in this point you can go everywhere in Malaysia.
• Bus driver will say puduraya if the bus reach, and after you go outside is not exactly in front of puduraya but the bus will stop in front of "Mydin" which is supermarket.
• After you go from the bus, don't say to anyone because it may attract taxi driver to convince you to take taxi and they will lie with the high price. The solution is after you are out from bus and directly turn left from the bus's door and go along the way. Maybe 100 m you will arrive puduraya and you can book the bus according to your destination outside the Kuala Lumpur. But if you just want to go around Kuala Lumpur, you can just take another bus or train (LRT) e.g KLCC, central market, etc. for those who love shopping, you can go to china town near puduraya.

If you wanna come back to airport again, just repeating the same process you go with. God Luck, have save journey

Traditional business to modern firm

Important elements involved in marketing your business has, essentially, unchanged. The goal of every business is still has a higher income, and the reason for the ad is all about getting your target audience to take action. What has changed however, is how your ads are being delivered to the market. People have less time and patience to read, listen and hear your message. You have a little time to get the message across, so you need to use a medium that can provide you with a great announcement, convey your message to your target market and cause people to act in ways that are simple and easy.

How has IT changed the way we live today?

what do you think ?? do you think if IT change your live ?
I will say "YES" because you can see that all the element of life almost all done by IT. IT has change the people who are living in this world. Once upon a time, our grandfather and grandmother didn't feel worried or frightened if they didn't bring gadget but people nowadays will feel upset and worried if they didn't check their email or notification in their social media. It proves that IT has change people mind about live. Another impact of IT is make people a bit "lazy", we know that IT make people connect without meet one another. In this instant, laziness will grow up but it will extract the IT knowledge either bad (HACKING) or good (Improving IT environment).

SEE THIS VIDEO - about IT in daily life !

Are IT workers professionals?

I don't think if all the IT workers are professionals. I had been practice work for 3 months when I was in vocational high school which was at one of the company. One customer asked for the problem about the computer and the IT support said lie which was not professional. He also will provide a virus in the computer so that for three months, the user will come again to service their computer. It shows that not all the IT workers are professionals and it depends on the ethical of individual, how they understand of being professional.

Information on Emerging Technologies

Nanotechnology

What does it mean ? Nano (from Greek) means dwarf or small. Nanotechnology is one of the science's branch which the object has size from 1 – 100 nanometer (nm); 1 nm equals to 0.000000001 m. Quantum mechanics has a big role in this technology. The first time the concept of nanotechnology was introduced by Richard Feynman in a scientific speech held by the American Physical Society at Caltech (California Institute of Technology), December 29, 1959. with the title "There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom". Richard Feynman was a physicist and in 1965 won the Nobel Prize in physics.

Grid Computing

According to Giga Research, grid computing is the computer cluster systems, which are connected to one another, which allows the use of existing resources simultaneously. Meanwhile, according to Sun Microsystems grid computing shortened to 3 C, namely Computing, Collaboration, and Communication. From this understanding, we can assess that grid computing is an amazing thing. for many different applications and hardware that can be easily configured without disturbing a running system. Combining multiple geographically separate computers, but still connected communication system with the Internet.

Quantum Computing

What is a quantum computing ???? Simple understanding of the quantum computer is a new type of processor chips are created based on recent developments of physics (and mathematics) quantum. In short, today's conventional chips need to be replaced with something better.

Further understanding of the quantum computer is a calculating device which uses a quantum mechanical phenomena, such as superposition and linkage, to perform data operations. In classical computing, is calculated by the amount of data bits; in quantum computers, this is done with the qubit. If say, a quantum computer only took 20 minutes to work on a process that takes 1025 years on the computer at this time, we would be amazed. This makes scientists so keen to develop the possibility of formation of a quantum computer. Although until now there has been created a quantum computer as imagined by scientists, progress continues in that direction

Managing Complexity

Situation Given:

For CEOs and their organizations, avoiding complexity is not an option — the choice comes in how they respond to it. Will they allow complexity to become a stifling force that slows responsiveness, overwhelms employees and customers, or threatens profits?

How do you respond to these statements?

As student and I am not the CEO of any organizations or companies yet, I don't know much about how to manage complexity; hopefully, I will be CEO :D. But I will just give my opinion about it, according to the situation given, CEOs and their organizations don't care about complexity in their companies. I think it is not the best choice avoiding complexity because it may harm their companies to bankrupt.

Which application system has the best user centered design ?And why do you say so?

When the teacher asked me this question and if I don't know what is UCD (User Centered Design), how could I answer this question. Firs of all, I would like to explain what's the definition of it, UCD is how to make user as central in the design process by carry out with testing and user needs. So, it is the best way to take and put the user as tester so that we (as AdminSys) could know what is the advantages, disadvantages, and what is supposed to be upgraded to improve the system and so on. To answer this question, when I browse Internet, I found a beautiful website which was very attraction for the user and it is easy to use. This is the website address that you may go into (http://hellosoursally.com/). The contain of the website is about food and drink and it is the best ever. User can choose what they want using keyboard or mouse, and in the website itself there is music for kids. And maybe if you want to find more about beautiful website which has UCD, you can using Google to search.  Here it is I attach the screenshot:

Computing Discipline

Computing Discipline

There are many opinions about it, but based on my understanding, computing means all about knowledge which contain about theory, methodology, design and implementation whom have relation with computation in Hardware-Software. Not only student and worker has discipline, computing also has discipline. Discipline is Train (someone) to obey rules or a code of behavior, using punishment to correct disobedience. Meaning that people who are working in computer environment has own job, rules, role and purpose; in order to achieve and develop the structure of Information Technology. It has been argued that Information Technology is the main computation, some scholar articles say Information technology is the sub of computation itself. But it does not matter to argue with that kind of statement which called it “lack of Information”. We do not know whether is it correct or wrong (Dilemma). These are the members of computing discipline in Information Technology:

• Computer Science

It began around 1940s together with development of algorithmic theory and mathematics logic. The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) is a scientific and professional organization founded in 1947. It is concerned with the development and sharing of new knowledge about all aspects of computing . It has traditionally been the professional home of computer scientists who devise new ways of using computers and who advance the science and theory. Computer Science is also called “the mother of all computing”. Career path of Computer Science are:

• Design and build a software.
• They develop effective ways to solve computing problems .
• They devise new ways to use computers .
  
  

• Software Engineering

  
  it is step where computer science people applying a theory in computer science. Software engineering is the discipline of developing and maintaining software systems that behave reliably and efficiently, are affordable to develop and maintain, and satisfy all the requirements that customers have defined for them . SE more concerned with developing and maintaining software system while CS students are likely to have heard of the importance of such techniques, the engineering knowledge and experience provided in SE programs go beyond what CS programs can provide . And also learn how to provide genuinely useful and usable software is of paramount importance .
  
  

• Information System

  
  Information systems specialists focus on integrating information technology solutions and business processes to meet the information needs of businesses and other enterprises, enabling them to achieve their objectives in an effective, efficient way . So, they can serve as an effective bridge between the technical and management communities within an organization, enabling them to work in harmony to ensure that the organization has the information and the systems it needs to support its operations .
  
  

• Cognitive Science

  
  Cognitive science is the interdisciplinary study of mind and intelligence, embracing philosophy, psychology, artificial intelligence, neuro-science, linguistics, and anthropology. Its intellectual origins are in the mid-1950s when researchers in several fields began to develop theories of mind based on complex representations and computational procedures.
  
  

• Computer Engineering

  
  It was leading before 1900a, Computer engineering is concerned with the design and construction of computers and computer-based systems. It involves the study of hardware, software, communications, and the interaction among them. Its curriculum focuses on the theories, principles, and practices of traditional electrical engineering and mathematics and applies them to the problems of designing computers and computer-based devices. 
  
  

  There is statement that "Most CS (Computer Science)people laugh at MIS/IT people and MIS/IT people make more money and manage the CS folks.” How do I respond this statement as IT people? In real life, many statements may happen either good or bad to us, depending how we face it professionally. Maybe CS people might think that they are the mother of computing. To me, it does not matter because in fact CS people do nothing as much as IT people do. IT people can work everywhere in any environment, for instance, medical, mechanical, in company etc. But CS people their work only in specific manner and they do not make more money only make a good job and invent something new which is good for us. Referring that statement maybe I will laugh back to them (CS). Hehehhe

How does internet affect my life as student?

Hey guys, I have another question that had been asked by my teacher above. How does internet affect your student’s life? First question, what is internet? Internet is the development of information technology which connecting abroad path (server) and many functions and information are there (my opinion). As student’s life, how many of you have been accessing internet? When did you first access it? First question, I think everyone knows what the function of internet is and what the functions of internet are. For the second question, maybe everyone has different answers depending on which years are you were born. 

As a student, I can say that internet is the “Student’s Saviour” I don’t want to say “God of student” because the God is the greatest and no one compares with it.  Internet is clever than my teacher, my lecturer, even my professor. Do you know why? Because if you ask one of them, I'm sure they will give you only their specialist and their point of view. What about internet? Internet knows every single thing such us food, war, all subjects knowledge, the address, the coordinate position and etc. I can conclude that internet is combination among those people around the world, and you have different perception. It works as a “team” to solve your problem even though it may give you some problems (vice versa). Demanding carrier in the future will be given by internet + implemented of knowledge. 

Can you live without internet for a day, a week, a month or a year?

Wow, she asks again with very sensitive question, maybe I will ask her with the same question. How can I live in the modern society without internet connection? Every day I have to read a news (instead of facebooking), checking e-mail to know what the current information is. As student we have to be active and aware to analyse any information. When assignment is coming, other students and I will search the information through internet which has many sources to get knowledge in order to read books. But sometimes, the teacher misinterpreting students do plagiarism throughout the internet. But the question is how can we get the info without reading? No matter in internet or books will have the same ideas. I think the teacher should think twice before blaming student do so. What about you???

IT Development : How has the development of IT influenced the common traditions of a society?

Do you realize that our society has been influenced by Information Technology? Yah, that’s the reality about our society now. IT has been reached without knowing the social variances, religion thus culture. In few past decades; there has been a revolution in communication and technology. We can see social’s change among society has been changing paradigm which growing in community; taboo, for instance. The indigenous people who never touch information from outside will keep continue their taboo without knowing what happens if they don’t do it and it is contradiction with indigenous people who get the information from outside, they will realize that what they are doing is wrong. By the end of it, especially youth, they “don’t” obey the taboo itself; we can see how important information it is. 

Information technology also could make people connecting each other and make own world. Information technology can reduce the important of distance; as such e-commerce, health service, social networking. The customers don’t need to go to the shop which far away from home and just check via internet and the items will be at home soon. In the other case, if they have family from different region they still can keep connecting feel like face-to-face. But the other hands, it doesn’t mean that IT can keep us safe, development of information technology could increase the crime problem as well and be aware of it. 

No matter in the religion, information technology has same role about changing the perception of community in religion side. People finding the information about their religion and maybe they want to find information about the other religions too. But the other hand, too much information about religion in internet and lacking knowledge of own religion, make people could be secular or atheist. Once they find article about “Mother is giving us a birth” they will realize that there is no God, because those type of people is lack of information because too much information. In this problem, I think we have to know what Information Literacy means is.

What about the vision of one laptop per child? What is your opinion?

Maybe we have heard about this news, the government provides a laptop per child to assure and to make a country’s dream comes true about truly education. I think it is one of the best solutions to educate their people as function of nation for. But we have to consider several problems that it may happen if the government should establish their plan. Currently, I am in Malaysia to study, as I know from Malaysian students, Kerajaan (Government) provides netbook ‘small laptop’ to SPM students which a level before university course. 

We know that the Malaysia’s population is not much as Indonesia’s population which more than 250 hundreds million people. And the student who study in high school still much than here, and how Indonesian’s government control their amount budget about providing laptop per child instead of simple problems have not been solved yet. I don’t want to talk about corruption among people ‘somewhere’ there who take care of this plan; of course all country will have the same problem. On the other hands, the sentence of ‘per child’ it is quite attracting people who want more about money. They will produce more children because of laptop; I knew this news from TV news presently. I know this article may make the readers have dilemma to understand but it is my opinion and it is also because of many Information that I have read through internet Technology. Any matter how we face with it, just to remember to take the positive side :) :) Thank you.

What about your opinion?? Leave comments.
