KERETA:
1. Pastikan kereta berkunci setiap masa bila meninggalkannya.
2. Pasangkan kunci tambahan pada setiap masa dibahagian-bahagian penting seperti stereng,gear,roda dan clutch
3. Pasangkan setiap masa alat penggera (alarm system).
4. Pastikan kunci kereta tidak dibuat salinan pendua semasa kereta dihantar atau
diservis atau semasa dicuci.
5. Jangan sesekali serah kunci kereta kepada joki kereta.Ukir nombor pendaftaran
kereta di cermin depan dan belakang serta sisi dengan 'sandblasting'.

Duo’s RM2 device gets global recognition

BUKIT MERTAJAM: Two Malaysian students have won international recognition for inventing a simple device that removes spilled oil from water — using modified banana trunk fibre.
And the device, that cost them just RM2, could come in handy during multi-million dollar oil spills.
Nurein Ardini Samsuri, 16, and Mas Adil Mas Rosemal Hakim, 18, bagged the first prize (visitor’s category) and a special award at the Beijing Youth Science Creation Competition 2010 held in the Tongzhou district in Beijing, China, between March 17 and 23.
The SM Sains Tun Syed Sheh Shahabudin students received two gold medals, certificates and a Lego set courtesy of Semia, China for their effort.
Their project, called MoBanT Fibre (Green Composite), beat 29 other projects submitted by visiting schools from 10 countries outside China.
There were 1,268 entries from schools within Beijing alone for the China schools category.
The duo had emerged champions in the national-level Malaysian Young Inventors Competition (MYIC) 2009 in Kuala Lumpur for the same product in May last year.
Genius pair: Nurein (left) and Mas Adil showing how their prized banana trunk invention works separating oil from water.
Nurein said she and Mas Adil discussed the project with teacher, Go Seow Ann and Mas Adil’s dad, Dr Mas Rosemal Hakim, a chemist in Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), after seeing banana trunks being cut and thrown away.
The trunks were cut into small pieces before boiling them to soften the texture.
“Then, we blended them till a fluff substance was produced before sifting and coating it with calcium carbonate (chalk) and stearic acid,” she said.
Nurein said the mixture was then boiled and stirred into a paste before being sun-dried.
The end product, she noted, was a hydrophobic product that enhanced the absorption of oil and retarded water absorption.
She said they only spent about RM2 on the chalk while the stearic acid was obtained from their school and the banana trunk from Mas Adil’s house.
The duo hoped that USM and their school could help patent and commercialise the product.
“We believe every oil tanker and vessel should store our product and use it in the event of an oil spill,” she added.
Deputy state Education Department director Tarmizi Kamaruddin, who presented the duo with certificates of commendation, said their achievement augured well for the government’s ‘Malaysia Inovatif 2010’ campaign that promoted innovation and creativity.
School principal Mohd Noor Yusof said the school would reward the students with certificates and trophies.
