Executive Talk by MD of Malaysia Airlines

I had the golden opportunity to attend this talk last Friday. Before this, I heard a lot about Dato' Sri Idris Jala, being a good speaker and yes I acknowledge it now - he is indeed!

How did Dato' Sri Idris Jala saves Malaysia Airlines? He shared his six secrets to the audience. Check it out ~~

[I took a picture on every slide - lazy to write them down hehehe]

Dato' Idris Jala
"When I first joined Malaysia Airlines, many people said, 'Matilah Anak Sarawak' but then positively I replied 'Masaalah Akan Selesai'"

Dato' Idris came from Bario, Sarawak

The 1st Secret - The Game of the Impossible

P & L Anchorage

The Discipline of Action

Situational Leadership

Winning Coalition

and the last one - Divine Intervention

I'm glad I attended the talk. I learnt a lot
next time, when you hear Dato' Sri Idris Jala is going to give a talk
try to attend - you won't regret a minute of it!

by the way, I got this from MAS :)

The MAS Roadshow was officiated by the Sabah Federal Secretary
Datuk Ismail bin Hj Wadin

Oh! Monday!!

George Phillips, an elderly man, from Meridian, Mississippi, was going up to bed, when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window. George opened the back door to go turn off the light, but saw that there were people in the shed stealing things.

He phone the police, who asked "Is someone in your house?"

He said, "No, but some people are breaking into my garden shed and stealing from me"

Then the police dispatcher said, "All patrols are busy. You should lock your doors and an officer will be along when one is available"

George said, "okay". He hung up the phone and counted to 30. Then he phone the police again.

"Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people stealing things from my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now because I just shot them". And he hung up.

Within five minutes, six police cars, a SWAT Team, a helicopter, two fire trucks, a paramedic and an ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence, and caught the burglars red-handed.

One of the policemen said to George, "I thought you said that you'd shot them!"

George said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!"

Morale of the story - Don't mess with old people!

Island Hopping

My siblings and I and together with our families went for Islands-hopping yesterday. Tiring but the kids were enjoying themselves. Our first stop was at Sapi Island. There were many tourists and we were a little bit scared of the most talked Swine Flu.

At Sapi Island, we went for jungle trekking only. No mandi-manda yet. My brother told us, the best spot for mandi-manda is at Manukan Island.

The second stop was at Mamutik Island. We were thinking of going for the trekking but as we looked at the sky it was like going to rain. Hey peeps! don't judge the weather by looking at the clouds. It didn' rain ok!

Time for the Manukan Island! We reached there at noon and everybody was starving. Found a nice space and then makan time!

The kids couldn't wait to go for their swim. And they did have fun and some says - 'belum puas!!!' Well, hopefully next time we can stay overnight. And by the way, the whole trip was free of charge. Thanks to my brother who is working at Sabah Parks ;)

the children anxious faces. some are a first-timer ;)

the sea is a crystal clear

The Bathtub Test

During a visit to the Mental Hospital, I asked the Director, "How do you determine whether or not a patient should be admitted to the hospital?" "Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we give a tea-spoon, a tea-cup and a bucket to the patient and ask him to empty the bathtub"

"Oh, I understand", I said. "A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the tea-cup".

"No!", said the Director. "A normal person would pull the drain plug". "Well, do you want a bed near the window?"
