...Mengapa Mesti Double Standard...




...Seperti yang semua Metaler sedia maklum band Thrash Metal dari Jerman Kreator dijadual mengadakan gig di Scandals Club Kuala Lumpur pada 23hb.April 2014...Saya yang berasa sangsi dengan ketelusan mengambil jalan selamat, dengan tidak membeli tiket mau pun merancang untuk hadhir...Ini kerana bimbang akan kesan dari kes Bkt Jalil tempohari yang mempengaruhi pihak tertentu untuk mengambil tindakan...Rupa2 nya segala sangkaan saya menjadi kenyataan...


...Kerana selera yang berbeza, disebabkan penampilan yang lain dari kebanyakan orang lain...hak peminat band Thrash ini dinafikan...Umum banyak yang tidak mengetahui Muzik Metal kebanyakan mengenengahkan isu2 sensitif yang tidak disentuh dalam kebanyakan genre lainnya...Metal menyentuh isu rasuah, peperangan, politik dan lain2 isu lainya (tidak terkecuali yang nagetif)...cara penyampaian yang penuh dengan emosi, lantang samaada marah atau kritikan pedas...antara sebab ianya dipanggil Metal...bukan dengan muzik lesu ,layu dengan tema cinta tipikal yang tidak mencabar minda malah melumpuhkan semangat pendengar!!


...Saya ingin menyentuh sedikit tentang menikmati/mendengar muzik Metal ini...Secara amnya semua muzik perlukan penghayatan bagi menikmati salah satu dari anugerah Tuhan ini...Peminat muzik dan penggemar bunyian bunyian bagi pendapat saya merupakan dua perkara yang berbeza sebenarnya..Penggemar bunyian hanya suka kepada bunyi2an yang 'sedap' pada perkiraan mereka berbanding bagi peminat muzik yang meminati satu satu jenis muzik berdasarkan unsur seni yang ada pada muzik itu sendiri selain dari beberapa faktor lainnya seperti skil pemuzik, jenis muzik, hala tuju pemuzik, penampilan, melodi, lirik serta isu yang diketengahkan..Semua ini diambil kira dan mampu membuat peminat bukan saja mendengar tapi turut berfikir...berbanding dengan mereka yang suka pada bunyian tetapi tidak mengambil kira faktor lain nya selain dari hanya ingin berhibur dan berseronok!!...Justeru kebanyakan mereka ini tidak meminati akan muzik genre Rock atau Metal....Malangnya mereka  memerlukan bahan lain pula untuk mendapatkan lebih feel juga keseronokan...justeru dalam kata mudahnya bahan perangsang seperti dadah diperlukan!! (Merujuk kes di Stadium Bkt Jalil) Sebenarnya tanpa muzik pun kamu boleh mendapat nikmat (kosong) dengan bantuan bahan terlarang...Bunyi kentut yang biasa2 pun kamu akan kata ada sound effect beserta distortion segala...dengan syarat jika mengambil dadah!!! Sayang dan rugi sama sekali... Dan pendapat saya mengatakan mereka bukan lah peminat muzik yang sebenar jelasnya mereka hanya suka kan bunyi2an dan hiburan serta keseronokan terlampau!...Menghayati/mendengar muzik tidak perlu bahan lain untuk merangsang cukup dengan deria telinga yang dipinjamkan oleh Tuhan...Dan tanpa najis arak serta dadah kita masih mampu mengawal diri!...






...Ok berbalik pada isu Thrash Metal kita tadi...Sebagai sebuah negara yang mengamalkan demokrasi semua kita perlu hormat serta menghargai pendapat serta selera orang lain...sesuatu yang berbeza seperti penampilan contohnya yang munkin nampak ganas, rugged serta kasar itu tidak bermakna ia akan merosakan orang lain...Siapa pun tidak boleh menafikan ramai lagi yang berpakaian kemas serta menarik tapi mengamalkan rasuah, menipu, memakan duit anak yatim, memeras ugut, mengadu domba 'back stabber' di luar sana!!


...Apakah kerana gig Metal tidak menghidangkan gadis2 mongel yang berpakaian mencolok mata dengan arak2 mahal...maka scene ini dipandang serong!?...Jelasnya scene Metal tiada moral support dari pemerintah tiada menteri yang hadhir untuk potong reben pada majlis sidang akhbar...Tiada itu tiada ini..makanya tiada peluang untuk bertapak serta mendapat hak di sini!!


...Apa pun saya percaya dengan pembatalan ini tidak bermakna ia menjadi titik permulaan bagi lain lain gig Metal untuk tidak dibenarkan beraksi di sini...Scorpions (80an) & Kreator kedua2nya cancelled dan saya selamat sebab tidak  yakin dengan kewibawaan organiser...Dalam lain kata organiser juga sebenarnya perlu mengambil sikap lebih bersedia serta berhati2 bagi menganjurkan gig atau konsert seperti ini...Mereka juga harus ingat beberapa langkah serta pendekatan perlu diambil kira...dengan modal besar yang dilabur belum tentu menjanjikan kejayaan apalagi keuntungan... 'Buisness Means Buisness' pelbagai risiko perlu dihadapi kerana ini bukan konsert Daud Kilau!...Wajar mereka ini menimba serta tidak malu belajar dari organiser yang lebih berpengalaman...Hubungan dua hala yang baik melibatkan pihak berwajib tidak boleh diambil mudah dan perlu ada bagi memudahkan segala urusan serta mengelak pelbagai kerenah birokrasi...


...Dalam hal ini konsep DIY yang diamalkan dalam scene underground perlu dilonggarkan kerana kita tinggal di Malaysia bukan di Eropah...Jika diambil kira dari pengalaman masa lalu risiko permit dibatalkan dengan sebab yang remeh sering berlaku....Namun tidak bagi gig pertama mereka yg berjaya diadakan pada 2005 pihak ADDK turut mengambil bahagian dengan membuka booth di tapak gig...Ini secara langsung memberi peluang untuk kedua2 pihak merapatkan jurang perbezaan serta memahami hala tuju masing2...juga mampu mengikis sikap sinis dari pihak berkuasa serta mereka yang tidak memahami scene underground...ini yang sepatutnya berlaku dalam usaha untuk mengujudkan masyarakat yang memahami serta saling menghormati tanpa mengira siapa kamu(agak klise bunyinya)...Justeru siapa kata komuniti Metal tidak mampu memberi apa2 sumbangan?!


...Metalers bukan hipokrit!!...sedangkan seperti manusia lainnya juga...selepas mengambil sedikit masa untuk berhibur mereka juga akan bertebaran untuk memenuhi tanggung jawab masing masing...Ada yang terdiri dari Jurutera, Peguam, Guru, Pelukis, Penjawat Awam dan pelbagai profesion lagi...Semua mereka terdiri dari manusia biasa seperti orang lainnya...Pada yang tidak tahu suka saya tekankan di sini (tanpa niat menunjuk2) bagi menghormati waktu solat show akan diberhentikan di setiap gig Metal yang diadakan...Satu contoh jelas concert besar Metal iaitu Festival Hammersonic di Indonesia kemudahan tempat mengerjakan solat juga turut disediakan...Apa pun dan siapa pun kita tanggung jawab terhadap diri serta Tuhan tetap diutamakan...Semua insan perlukan hiburan asal tidak melalaikan...

...Proud To Be Malaysian...


...Now and one more time worldwide well known in motors industry company...Toyota has announced to recall their certain vehicles...A few years back it happened to their Camry...And this time involving to Corolla, RV4,Yaris, Highlander and Tacoma... and as reported recently it due to technically problem...


...Well every single time when our local manufactures launch their new products all that we find many peoples out there just waste their time by mumbling over on FB, Twitter or even in the news paper...those peoples always trying to figure out even just a little things...as long as they could condem and no matter how hard it could be...

...C'mon...please never condem our local products..many peoples not willing to give a try just because it's local made...I ve been driving my local made MPV's for a years...You know my outstation drive was a cruise...The 1.6 Turbo Charged drove like a 2.0 (As same as Innova 2.0)...And no any complaint at all so far...

...Look actually its depend on how we treat them...my mechanic once told me that we should treat vehicles like a woman...So what?! Funny?!? No no...Don't get me wrong..you see what I meant?...So what's a big deal? Here I tell you again don't be hesitate and just give a try to our local products..No matter what..We are Malaysian and must be proud of it...


....To be fair I don't know much about engine but as basic as car,van and MPV owner/user at least I know a little bit about it...Oh ohh..I forgot actually I am not a preacher anyway....Hummm whatever...



P/s : - ...But I do prefer Kerepek Pisang or Lempeng Kelapa instead French Fries or Pan Cake...As my friend show off his Pulut Udang yesterday..Today I am gonna get it...So lets support our local products...Anything including our music scene!!

...One Day In My Life...Sometimes We Need To Looking Back...



...Sometimes I think I would rather go back to my home town instead my current place right here...meet  my mom as I miss her every single day...eat her dishes that cooked with retro style...retro menu..suchlike her home made Roti Canai,her very own Halwa Maskat, ( i dun think most of those Y generation know it even my children) Pengat Labu,Betek Masak Rebus, Pucuk Kemangi, Ulam Temu and all that...Yes, spend my free time play around with my farm animals...stay away from traveling out on the road with my MPV all day long under hot weather that makes me dehydrate and sleepy...Err lazy actually....Sigh! Nothing compares when take a deep breath with fresh air in my late dad and mom orchard...Subhannallah!

...Well, in the middle of the night how quiet and calm environments...No air conditioner just a nature night cold....means you have to get tick enough blanket to cover your whole body to keep calm and sleep... Morning after Fajr prayer...Having early morning breakfast that I never practice in my home except after doing my routine exercise...When sun goes up and shining, kick-start my day by do brisk walk around the neighbourhood while listen to birds singing (left behind my MP3)...before spent my time cycling a miles away just to buy a news paper at our small town Beruas (well known as Gangga Nagara)..small and very small but its has a huge of great history...Well, you can find all the stories from the book by DBP yer know...Hikayat Merong Mahawangsa (not related with the film with the same title)

...I m getting back and still can remember long time ago back in 70's... one night with my dad we both went out to our orchard in the middle of the night with only the moonlight along with us just to find out who frequently stole our durians and mangoes...and I couldn't help myself to worry about snakes,wild boar and ghost as well..Hehehehe...I pray the sooner we get home is better...Geee it was really scary experience... anyway we found nothing that night...Fruits or even the intruder...Heehe...This is just one of many things happened in my life...and still fresh in my mind...Huhuu..

..I miss my childhood day in this small town...Where's all my friends...Where's my school mate? Most of them never coming back for many years as their mom and dad (family) has not around anymore...they have their own life and refuse to stay in this small town with their own personal reason and they know why...This place 100 kilometers away from downtown and night life...only old surau and mosque with old folks... but still we can hang out at mamaks restaurant with free wifi  you know...

...Can't deny it I really miss our school time back then...Playing football on the field in front of my house no matter what...but to be honest football was not my cup of tea actually... but I have no choice as all of my friends into it...and I used to be the school player once..but after one inter school game I decided to quit hahaha... I told myself why should I do and keep in touch for something that I don't like at all...Actually I prefer to run, run and run as I could feel free as well!...That's my inner self!

...Unforgettable school time...and Che Gu Imah our English Teacher (she's so beautiful you know..hehe) who used to manage our dialogue sessions with the School teachers from others school...our Headmaster Che Gu Dollah, Mrs Yip ' Out loud screamer' and arrogant...Whoopss!! Che Gu Bidin with his attracted Beatles style soft cow suede boot that used everyday (I only get my Clarks soft suede 12 years later) ...Pak Zam, yes do you remember our Tokey Kantin with his famous half sliced Cucor Kucai with non cooked kuah kacang...But still we can't get enough with it taste and aroma......Muhammad...as known as Roti Teng Teng saler with hot fresh sekaya spread on bun that always be our first thing in the morning at school...Hahahaa...

...Sometimes went to the one and only cinema in the Beruas town and watching for every single Bruce Lee & Clint Eastwood movies and selective Hindi movies as well..Kati Patang, Brahmachari...Do you remember that!? During school holiday we spent our time by playing kite, gasing, konda kondi, police and thief, marbles, cards, cycling all around the place, swimming in the river....Walllaaa!....We really had fun...We fear for nothing and nobody can stop us from enjoy our life!

...Times like it was yesterday...and even now we 've grown older...brought back all the lovely memories from the best moments of my life...nostalgic,beautiful, touching...the feeling that it could last forever but never coming back anymore...there are no words to express how much it means to me...That's why I manage to said sometimes we need to looking back...feel it and appreciate everything back then...For me life is a reality to be experience...Sigh! All the memories just blown me away and could makes my tears run down my face (to be honest)...


...Cross my heart... sometimes I feels  I wanna spend my whole life time stay in this small town...

....My friends...you better know we have our own right to spend life time with our style... and it's doesn't matter where we stay...actually serenity is everywhere and life is full of  joy so enjoy it...as long as we never fail our responsibility to our self, Allah, mom,dad and family...My conclusion is simple enough... Integrity is a must!...So don't hesitate to keep it up.....

...Last but not least this is my life...I like to live by my style...and love the way that I choose to be myself...Yes really love it...Alhamdullillah...


....Ok, that's all...enough...it's already 2.30 am and I have nothing else to say...But still I can't get no sleep till now...Well... I took too much caffeine actually...Hummm that's my major problem...Hahhaa...Humm, ok bye... Chapter closed...
