Red hot cili api meeting

...we walked away with more to think about. Like why some people would rather be on the defensive rather than listen to what the masses are saying? If we do not recognise the fact that there are real issues to be addressed, we'd never ever be able to solve the problems.Hence, no change.Hence, why bother to even discuss things?

I'm reflecting on my Kull meeting with the top management.Prof. Noraini presented Kull's status.Then Prez spoke.She menyampuk and Prez sportingly said ok..you wanna debate, let's do it.Wough! Like 1 million times! :) So we spoke.Mula2 Profs tu semua diam je cos' I think everyone was thinking wht's the point but as Prez encouraged us to speak up with Noraini bertalu2 questioning..haha bless this woman trained at Oxford...we started arguing to validate that hey, the arts deserves a fair budget too to grow..ni asyik2 favour medicine and engineering..mentelaah la two deputy rectors dari sinun.Haha...Dulu we had two rectors from our kull...takda la pulak depa nak lempor million2 kat kita..cos' I suspect they had to be seen as fair leaders dan tak biased. I was still sore about my younger colleagues being told to do their pgrad studies locally.Which was denied by the relevant office - depa kata they still send...sila kasi nama? Yang pergi tu cari sources lain..haiya...not only our dept complaining of this,dept lain juga.Bkn kita pandang rendah local grads but if they had done their studies here, kasi chan la depa menimba pengalaman luar..see how things are done..face the challenges abroad, build the networks to bring home...
Anyway, kita tengoklah.Prez sokong apa I cakap.We'll encourage the young ones to go to the best uni. outside Msia. But I think it was a good discussion.At least we'd get our Endnotes..:))
