Assalamualaikum wbt and peace be upon you,
.
On the TV3 news just now, an ex-pilot deliberated on whether the passengers hijacked the flight or the crew members itself did it.
.
1. If it's done by teh passengers, maybe it was executed like how I described in my previous post. Maybe the cabin crew got acquainted with "the passengers" to the point of "inviting" them into the cockpit?
.
2. If it is done by the crew members? What is their motive?
A) Recently MAS sacked a few employees after a mass protest staged by its employees in Putrajaya (if I'm not mistaken, based on a newspaper report I read somewhere), then maybe it's an act of revenge. But then again, these cabin crew have families and friends. I don't think they were too desperate to seek revenge as to hijack the plane and kill themselves. What would they gain?
.
B) MAS counter staff especially at the group check in counters would always complain of tiredness and lack of staff. Some told they had to work from morning till night time. Sometimes there's only one staff manning the group check in counters because another staff had to go for briefing etc. (this is a well known fact among passengers).
.
C) MAS again recorded losses. Maybe there's too much stress and anxiety among its employees.
.
D) Maybe there's an inside involvement (only the insiders like people who make the roster knew who is going to pilot the jet, who the co-pilot was, who were the passengers etc).
.
3. Again another Theory emerge: Maybe the pilot was directed to do the ultimate heroic act of destroying the lives of some highly dangerous passengers who had vital information about the country's security etc (note that the Chinese nationals went to visit the MCA headquarters. Why would they do that since they came into the country as caligraphy artists?) Maybe in order to destroy the lives of these passengers, he had to take his own life as well).
.
Emmm, it's like a case for James Bond...by the way, I'd like to list down all the grouses being voiced out by the public:
1. the Malaysian authorities were acting only on hindsight.
2. There was no coordination between DCA, the military and the Vietnamese authority at first. Then the passenger manifest and baggage manifest was only done later. Also the pasengger and cabin crew profiling. 3. MAS at first seemed to try to hide something from the public and was not clear about the case and made the public unsatisfied..
4. The police did not raid the houses of the cabin crew. If there were vital information, there was ample time to destroy the documents etc.
5. The immigration officers maybe had a connection with the false passport syndicate.
6. The DCA boss and MAS Boss were not good in English and could not perform their best under crisis. Was there a proper crisis management.The way they handled the press conference were terrible.
7. They did not study the case in detail at first and straight away prompted the SAR. After all SAR failed in the South Chinese Sea, then only they looked into all the other possibilities, findings, sightings etc. If they had taken some time at first to deliberate all the facts, maybe the SAR would be concluded sooner.
8. Security in KLIA was too lax. People who have been to China, London, US, Saudi Arabia etc said KLIA is too relax in handling the security aspect.
9. Foreign workers were allowed to work in KLIA especially the baggage handling and cargo area (people like from Bangladesh, and later Sabahan (most probably southern filipinos or even Indonesians with fake Malaysian ID).
.
What can we learn from this? I think most Malaysians with certain important posts are too egoistic. They don't want to listen to the lament of the layman. They think they know all and the layman have no right to tell them off anything. When they have encountered a dead end would they only go back to the reports of the locals like the fishermen etc. This is what sadden me. We Malaysians are proud individualistic people who simply brush off others as "Who are you to tell me about this. I know more than you. I have connection, cable, friends, knowledge, technology etc while you are a nobody. What they say are called theory or possibilities. What others say are brushed off as speculations/tell tale etc". Well, this is the disease that's plaguing Malaysians.

MH 370 Mystery
Assalamualaikum wbt and peace be upon you,
.
Most probably the whole world is talking about the fate of MH 370 right now.
A lot of theories have emerged so far. I'd like to take a few minutes to delve into the mystery of the missing aircraft, with possibilities and probabilities as what might have happened to the jet by looking at the facts:
.
1. The jet was scheduled at 12.++ a.m (it's the first early morning flight-the counter officers and immigration, customs, security and even most of the passenggers were already tired, as most work long shift and maybe due to this, there's a lax in security/ negligence in SOP.)
.
2. The jet went missing at around 2 am. Basically after the early morning flight had set off, food will be served and then the lights on board will be dimmed to allow passenggers to sleep. Maybe the lights were shut off at around this time. So, if there's any unusual movements in the flight, most passengers would not have noticed.
....Looking at the above scenarios, the jet was most probably had been in the target of the hijackers (unseen hand) .
.
3. The flight made an air turn back without communicating the base.
.
4. Military radar found flight made air turn back before switching off the transponder.
.
5. The flight flew below radar
.
..Latest announcement by the Prime Minister said that the comunication line and transponder were deliberately switched off -(yet another proof of this unseen hand/hijackers).
6. Military radar last detected flight off Pulau Perak near the Acheh waters
.
7. The flight was last detected as still flying at 8.11 am Malaysian time (exhausting its fuel by then), maybe heading to its new destination.
.
....Proof that the flight went off course, flew below radar and was still flying till its last drop of fuel again suggest this unseen hand.
8. The investigators suggest that: 1) the flight was heading for Khazaktan/turkmenistan border. I think it's most unlikely because of the high altitude mountainous area (only a very skilled pilot could have managed to fly a 777 below radar. Maybe a military pilot could, but a military pilot is not skilled in flying a 777). Anyway, Indian authorities with their heavy air defence would have intercepted the flight. It could only flew below radar on ocean routes and not land routes coz it would be highly dangerous to fly low on land).And anyway, most people would have noticed a large plane flying low and would have notified the authorities. (the only reports were made ny people near the coast of Trengganu-again proving that the flight flew towards the ocean and not land).
.
8. Investigators also suggest that the flight may have been directed towards the Indonesian water towards the Indian ocean. Maybe but why? Heading towards the Philippines is more probable. My mom who frequents the airport said, there had been an influx of suppossedly Sabahan workers (emm, we know most Philippinos entering Malaysia have a fake Sabahan identity) working at the baggage handling area. My mom even contacted the Bukit Aman police headquarters to report on this very troubling security issue a few months back but the lady police officer declined to accept my mom's report. In light of the recent Lahad Datu incident, these workers might easily accept any kind of monetary incentives to "plant" something on the flight, or even plant it themselves without any outsiders approach.
.
9. Some say the pilot was drunk - but he's a very skilled and dedicated pilot. Anyway if the pilot went on a rendevous, the passengers would have whipped out their smartphones and contacted their families/next of kin as in the case of passenggers on board the 9/11 incident. So, I don't think it's the pilot's lone act.
.
Anyway, why would he want to veer towards the Indian ocean? Did he want to perform Umrah in Mecca and decided to change direction on his own whim and fancy. Emmm, don't think so.
.
10. I think the unseen hands have studied the pilot and co-pilot, made a profiling of them, befriend them through the social media (maybe even as far back as a year or two ago. As the pilot was active in showing off his skills in Youtube and various other social media, so he would have been a target by some interested party). This unseen hand also befriended the co-pilot who was described as "easy" through the social media. He was also described by CNN correspondent to be handling the jet "textbook perfect".These unseen hands have been profiling and studying these two personnel, make friends with them, and know their working schedule (like when they would fly, the route and destination etc). As the security in KLIA is not as strict as in other airports, MAS would be an easy victim. The unseen hands might not actually fly in the MH370 but sent someone else to do the dirty job.
.
11. If the jet exploded in the South China Sea and Straits of Malacca, debris would have been found as these are active and busy waters.
.
12. If the jet went down to the ocean floor at the same location, it would not have flown until the last dropped of fuel.
.
..Therefore, most probably, the unseen hands wanted the pilots and the passengers alive. Maybe because of their skills. Other passengers were also of value, like the American IBM expert, The US semiconductors staff etc.
.
The authorities should check all online communications between the pilot and co-pilot with their facebook/twitter etc friends and match any similarities with the profiling of the passengers done by the police. The police should raid their houses in search of any documents which might be relevant with the incident or whether they have been in contact with any suspicious character/s lately.
.
If its an act of revenge by the Filipino, everyone would have been dead by now and some claims would already be made/debris found etc.
.
Some might ask how the hijackers act. I think there must be at least 5 to seven hijackers on board to control all 239 passenggers. What weapon would they use? a simple molotov cocktail made from liqour taken from the plane itself to threaten the passengers. ( prepare a shred of fuel infused cloth, take it on board, ask for vodka or any "A" grade liqour, mix it with sugar , and viola you have a molotov cocktail).
.
If its a technical failure, the jet might have crashed along its route (and not way off course) and debris found by now.
.
There's also a possibility that the jet veered but then flew on towards North Korea (as there are many Chinese (or supposedly Chinese) nationals on board), but the North Korean would have shot it down once it entered their borders...
So, the conclusion is :
I think MH370 is being held captive by someone somewhere. IF it is found crashed after the last drop of fuel was exhausted, then maybe it's a botch or failed hijacking attempt.
.
I think that's all I can think of now.Well, this deliberation is made solely based on the news report on TV and the internet. And it's only my opinion. I've not discussed this with anyone outside my family.
.
Anyway, I hope there's good news for fligt MH 370. As for the motive of the hijacking or terrorism act or whatever, I think the police would know once they make the connection between the "acquaintances" of the pilot and his co-pilot (or crew members whatever).

Communicaton is a Mystery To Me
Assalamualaikum wbt and peace be upon you,
.
Hi there everyone. Emm, the above title seems like a joke right. Well, actually nope. It is a big mystery to me. Just now, my mom and dad encountered a communication (or some would say miscommunication) issue with a guy.
.
This guy texted my dad, accusing my dad of spreading rumours about him having an extra marital affair with a woman who is our close relation. My dad. Of all people. It's like a big joke to me. (well, to me at least, coz I know my dad. He wouldn't even curse a politician, so how could one imagine him to spread rumours about such despicable thing). If I were the one talking to that guy, I would have laughed so loud my head would fall out.
.
The thing is, my mom did not think it is funny. Well, everyone knows my mom. She's like a tigress. Even though she has a Master's degree in Communication, she rarely use it diplomatically. Being a lawyer by training ruined it all I think. So, mom simply picked up the phone and started to cross examine the accuser instead, ..in high volume (the guy must be suffering from earache and headache right now, unless if he had equipped himself with bullet proof ear shield hehe).
.
Dad then took over. Diplomatically asking the guy a few questions and listening attentively most of the time.The guy even apologized to my dad later.
.
However, war erupted after that between mom and dad. Mom left the house. Made some calls I assumed.
.
When mom came back, the atmosphere had calmed down. Well, so we thought. At 3.00 a.m another round of verbal attacks between mom and dad erupted.
.
Mom lost her patience. Picked up the phone. Texted the woman's husband instead and warned him that she's going to see his wife soon. Well, it seems that my mom had just declared a war( it seems that the woman was the one spreading tales about my mom and dad talking bad about them, maybe to cover up their own sins).
.
So, all these baffles me. How different the approach that my mom and dad used to tackle the same issue.
.
My mom likes to approach an issue head-on, and I think it's dangerous coz we can hurt real bad if we use this tactic.
.
My dad on the other hand is subtle and slow, taking the time to let it reveal itself. So, even if he falls, he'll fall real slow.
.
But then again, how can we say who is right or wrong. I think God has created everyone different. Everyone's character is unique. and that's why the world is more interesting. and that's why people study communications in the first place.
.
Another issue will arise I think. How will my mom communicate with the woman soon. Haha, this is really going to be a drama.
.
Reading my mom's text is really interesting coz she wrote: "Do not disturb the hornet's nest, coz you'll be really sorry". My dad's approach is totally the opposite: "God will show us the truth in due time". So..which one do you prefer???
.
Emm, what's life without a bit of sizzles.
.
Love and peace
Daniel Zaydi
p.s. I wonder whether I'm more like mom or dad. Emmm, maybe dad. Or maybe a bit of mom and more of dad. Well, whateva :)

March 2014
Assalamualaikum wbt and peace be upon you,
.
Hi everyone out there. How are you guys living your lives right now? Hope that everyone is in a superb condition with the best mental state to leap forward this year.
.
I know I've not been active in posting new stuff lately. I've been super busy with classes and my social life hehe. Well, not that I have a girlfriend. No I don't, though the whole school spread rumours about me going out with a certain girl. Well, I'll tell you guys about that later. But first and foremost, I just realize that I haven't told you about my PMR result last year.
.
Well, for those of you who are not familiar with the Malaysian school system, the PMR or the Peperiksaan Menengah Rendah is literally translated as The Lower Secondary School Examinations. It's a nation wide exams at the end of our third year in Secondary school and we have to sit for the maximum of 8 subjects. And Thank you Allah, I;ve managed to get straight A's in all the subjects and become one of the best students in my school. There's only 4 of us who obtained 8As. Two have gone to boarding schools but I'm in my old school.
.
After the result was released, I applied for the Economics class (for form 4) instead of the Pure Science Class (as the tradition with all the excellent students). Because of this, some of the teachers in my school spread rumours that I changed to an "E" class because I was crazy in love with a girl (who is actually my best friend since kindergarten). Even my parents were summoned to meet the Principal due to this stupid rumours. .
The thing is, I've always wanted to become an Economist, so why should I study science when I'm fully aware that I'm not interested in the subjects. My mom and dad supported me 100% but the teachers say I'm stupid, I've ruined my life, made the wrong decision bla bla bla. They say I should take up science and switch to economics when I go to uni. I think this is what is wrong with the Malaysian Education system. They like to label students. The reason I can't go to boarding schools is because they don't offer economic subjects there. Only pure science. And when I chose to take up an Art paper, it became yet another issue in school. The teachers forced me to take up Additional Maths, because without it, I won't be able to enter matriculation during pre-u. What a crap. I love Arts and I'll study what I want. I think I'm big enough to make my own decision and I'm fully aware of what I want and my parents have given me the freedom to make decisions about my life. My mom said, she'll only guide me but the ultimate decisions are my own, so don't these people understand that I'm not some kind of stereotype. That if I don't study Science, I'm doomed. That all the bright students must take up science subjects bla bla bla.
.
So, finally, I managed to secure a place in an Economics class. and a new challenge begin... you know what, most of the teachers would say it straight in our faces that we are stupid, we'll end up no where, we have no future, we are lazy bla bla. I'm very furious because in my family, all these negative talks and thoughts are completely forbidden. I just don't understand what these teachers are trying to do to us. So, after they leave the class, I'd tell my classmates not to listen to the teachers. I told them we can achieve great things, we have a wonderful future in front of us and we are the best creature that God has created. I'd use the same phrase that my mom uses everyday " God has given us 100 trillion brain cells to use, and we've used up only a little, so we have so many more to utilize to achieve everything that we want in this life. If others can do it, so can we, and even more". No, I will not let anyone tell me I'm useless, and I'm hoping that I'll become a mentor to my friends in this class and prove the teachers wrong. All my life, I've been in "A" class. Now that I've joined the "E" class or the losers class as the teachers call it, I know where and what the problem is. The problem is not 100% the students but more of the teachers who brainwashed the students with negative talks.
.
Well, I'm going to make sure that it won't happen in my class. So far, I've made bold steps to coach some of the students on how to study:
Challenge No.1: One very big challenge is one of my classmates, an Indian guy, would talk non stop in class, and I think he really has a problem in keeping his voice down. just imagine him talking with his friends from the other class!!!. So, finally I got the idea to buy a chain from the hardware store. I chained up the back door so that it stayed close and he wouldn't have the chance to converse with his friends from the back door. So, one problem settled.
.
Challenge No. 2 : Some of my classmates like to run out of the class during lessons that they don't like and only come back at the end. So, we've come up with the idea of locking the front door so those who go out without permission will not be able to get in and will be punished by the discipline teacher when he makes the round.
.
Challenge No. 3 : I've talked to one of the teachers about the negative attitude of some of the teachers in the hope that no more negative talks and verbal abuse will be tolerated in my class.
.
Challenge No. 4 : Some of the students are really lazy in reading THE INSTRUCTIONS in the exam papers. That's why they can't answer the papers properly. So, I'm coaching them to underline the KEY WORDS. My mom told me to explain to them what are keywords and how can they identify the keywords. I mean, this is really very basic. Now I know why they always flung their papers. They are just too lazy to try to understand the questions.
.
Challenge No. 5: I have to be a role model to them. Many of you might know that I'm a Deputy Head Prefect in my school. I'm given the privilege to have an early recess so that I can discharge my duty efficiently. However, because of my determination to coach my classmates, I've decided to forego the early recess and continue with my studies with them. So everyday, I don't have any recess. I'll go straight for my duty. It's very tiring but I have to do what I have to do right.
.
Challenge No. 6: To prove the teachers wrong. I study in advance right now. Every night I'll do extra exercises on my own to ensure that I'm well ahead and fully prepared in all the subjects.
.
Challenge No. 7: Cancel the negative thinking spread by the teachers about us: I'm gonna take a little space at the corner of the whiteboard and write out our targets for SPM next year in PERMANENT INK: 10A+ for each and every subject. I've bought the permanent marker pen but I've misplaced it. No worries, I'll just get a new one and write in down this week. Mission accomplished!!.
.
Challenge No 8: Make or buy positive thinking posters and paste them on the classroom walls.
.
Challenge No. 9: I want to see my class emerge as the best class in the history of my school in terms of result, discipline and cleanliness.
.
Challenge No. 10: To make sure that we are again result driven next year (with the right mentality and attitude, I see no problem in achieving even the stars!!!).
.
So, to all of you out there who are reading ythis, wish me lots of luck and thank you.
.
Love and peace

No I don't, though the whole school spread rumours about me going out with a certain girl. Well, I'll tell you guys about that later. But first and foremost, I just realize that I haven't told you about my PMR result last year.
.
Well, for those of you who are not familiar with the Malaysian school system, the PMR or the Peperiksaan Menengah Rendah is literally translated as The Lower Secondary School Examinations. It's a nation wide exams at the end of our third year in Secondary school and we have to sit for the maximum of 8 subjects. And Thank you Allah, I;ve managed to get straight A's in all the subjects and become one of the best students in my school. There's only 4 of us who obtained 8As. Two have gone to boarding schools but I'm in my old school.
.
After the result was released, I applied for the Economics class (for form 4) instead of the Pure Science Class (as the tradition with all the excellent students). Because of this, some of the teachers in my school spread rumours that I changed to an "E" class because I was crazy in love with a girl (who is actually my best friend since kindergarten). Even my parents were summoned to meet the Principal due to this stupid rumours. .
The thing is, I've always wanted to become an Economist, so why should I study science when I'm fully aware that I'm not interested in the subjects. My mom and dad supported me 100% but the teachers say I'm stupid, I've ruined my life, made the wrong decision bla bla bla. They say I should take up science and switch to economics when I go to uni. I think this is what is wrong with the Malaysian Education system. They like to label students. The reason I can't go to boarding schools is because they don't offer economic subjects there. Only pure science. And when I chose to take up an Art paper, it became yet another issue in school. The teachers forced me to take up Additional Maths, because without it, I won't be able to enter matriculation during pre-u. What a crap. I love Arts and I'll study what I want. I think I'm big enough to make my own decision and I'm fully aware of what I want and my parents have given me the freedom to make decisions about my life. My mom said, she'll only guide me but the ultimate decisions are my own, so don't these people understand that I'm not some kind of stereotype. That if I don't study Science, I'm doomed. That all the bright students must take up science subjects bla bla bla.
.
So, finally, I managed to secure a place in an Economics class. and a new challenge begin... you know what, most of the teachers would say it straight in our faces that we are stupid, we'll end up no where, we have no future, we are lazy bla bla. I'm very furious because in my family, all these negative talks and thoughts are completely forbidden. I just don't understand what these teachers are trying to do to us. So, after they leave the class, I'd tell my classmates not to listen to the teachers. I told them we can achieve great things, we have a wonderful future in front of us and we are the best creature that God has created. I'd use the same phrase that my mom uses everyday " God has given us 100 trillion brain cells to use, and we've used up only a little, so we have so many more to utilize to achieve everything that we want in this life. If others can do it, so can we, and even more". No, I will not let anyone tell me I'm useless, and I'm hoping that I'll become a mentor to my friends in this class and prove the teachers wrong. All my life, I've been in "A" class. Now that I've joined the "E" class or the losers class as the teachers call it, I know where and what the problem is. The problem is not 100% the students but more of the teachers who brainwashed the students with negative talks.
.
Well, I'm going to make sure that it won't happen in my class. So far, I've made bold steps to coach some of the students on how to study:
Challenge No.1: One very big challenge is one of my classmates, an Indian guy, would talk non stop in class, and I think he really has a problem in keeping his voice down. just imagine him talking with his friends from the other class!!!. So, finally I got the idea to buy a chain from the hardware store. I chained up the back door so that it stayed close and he wouldn't have the chance to converse with his friends from the back door. So, one problem settled.
.
Challenge No. 2 : Some of my classmates like to run out of the class during lessons that they don't like and only come back at the end. So, we've come up with the idea of locking the front door so those who go out without permission will not be able to get in and will be punished by the discipline teacher when he makes the round.
.
Challenge No. 3 : I've talked to one of the teachers about the negative attitude of some of the teachers in the hope that no more negative talks and verbal abuse will be tolerated in my class.
.
Challenge No. 4 : Some of the students are really lazy in reading THE INSTRUCTIONS in the exam papers. That's why they can't answer the papers properly. So, I'm coaching them to underline the KEY WORDS. My mom told me to explain to them what are keywords and how can they identify the keywords. I mean, this is really very basic. Now I know why they always flung their papers. They are just too lazy to try to understand the questions.
.
Challenge No. 5: I have to be a role model to them. Many of you might know that I'm a Deputy Head Prefect in my school. I'm given the privilege to have an early recess so that I can discharge my duty efficiently. However, because of my determination to coach my classmates, I've decided to forego the early recess and continue with my studies with them. So everyday, I don't have any recess. I'll go straight for my duty. It's very tiring but I have to do what I have to do right.
.
Challenge No. 6: To prove the teachers wrong. I study in advance right now. Every night I'll do extra exercises on my own to ensure that I'm well ahead and fully prepared in all the subjects.
.
Challenge No. 7: Cancel the negative thinking spread by the teachers about us: I'm gonna take a little space at the corner of the whiteboard and write out our targets for SPM next year in PERMANENT INK: 10A+ for each and every subject. I've bought the permanent marker pen but I've misplaced it. No worries, I'll just get a new one and write in down this week. Mission accomplished!!.
.
Challenge No 8: Make or buy positive thinking posters and paste them on the classroom walls.
.
Challenge No. 9: I want to see my class emerge as the best class in the history of my school in terms of result, discipline and cleanliness.
.
Challenge No. 10: To make sure that we are again result driven next year (with the right mentality and attitude, I see no problem in achieving even the stars!!!).
.
So, to all of you out there who are reading ythis, wish me lots of luck and thank you.
.
Love and peace
