Pencegahan Jenayah Kecurian Kenderaan
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'.
6. Elakkan meletak kenderaan bersebelahan kenderaan besar seperti lori dan bas
kerana ini akan memberi ruang dan peluang keemasan serta memudahkan pencuri
mencuri akibat tersorok dari andangan kita.
7. Siap sedia dengan kunci kereta apabila menuju ke kereta.
MOTORSIKAL :
8. Letak motorsikal di tempat-tempat yang dikhaskan serta ada kemudahan mengunci.
9. Pastikan motorsikal anda berkunci setiap masa apabila bercadang meninggalkannya.
10. Jangan sesekali meninggalkan motorsikal dikawasan yang gelap dan sunyi.
11. Setiap masa gunakan kunci dan rantai tambahan.
12. Jika perlu ukirkan nombor pendaftaran motorsikal dibahagian-bahagian penting atau lengkapkan dengan isyarat pencegahan kecurian.

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.

THE WORKING PEOPLE'S PRIME MINISTER
Blogger lauds the other side of prime minister
2010/04/12
SRI AMAN: When Desmond Jerukan received an email inviting him to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's tea party at Sri Perdana in Putrajaya on March 13, he thought somebody was playing a joke on him.
However, when the 41-year-old writer of the blog "Nadai Nama Nama" received a second email inviting him to the function, he realised it was not a prank.
"Before the event took place, I was nervous and I didn't know what to do, although the event organiser did inform me about the dress code.
"The only thing I managed to do shortly after arriving in Kuala Lumpur from Kuching was to buy a cheap necktie at Parkson in Sungei Wang Plaza," he said.
As he is working here, the blogger had to drive for two hours to Kuching before boarding a flight to Kuala Lumpur.
Desmond, an administrative officer in the Sri Aman Resident's Office, said he would remember the trip for the rest of his life as he never imagined he would one day be sitting next to the prime minister at a tea party.
To him, the tea party was an enriching experience, especially since he is usually only able to see the prime minister during official functions in Sarawak.
"I find him (Najib) to be really sincere in getting to know his online friends. For example, when his officer called him through his handphone, Najib's immediate reply was that he was in the midst of an important function and he asked to be rung back later," said Desmond.
Even after the function, he repeatedly told his bodyguards to allow his online friends to meet and mingle with him.
He said Najib even commented on the Black Eyed Peas song I've Got a Feeling that was played during the tea party, saying that the number set the right mood.
Desmond said the prime minister had his own unique way of breaking the ice.
In his blog, he wrote: "The prime minister and his wife, Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor, were very casual. His friendliness also caught everyone off guard. He broke the ice with me by talking about my camera. He quipped: "My, my, you have a serious-looking camera there.
"And so it started with camera talk and I have to thank my Nikon D5000 for being a saviour."
With that ice-breaking gesture, Desmond said the rest was history as he, together with other online friends, talked about many issues which Najib listened to most attentively and patiently.
"The only thing that I could not talk about at that time was Liverpool because I am a big fan of the club, but the prime minister supports Manchester United."
Desmond, who has a degree in Applied Science from Universiti Sains Malaysia and corporate master's in business administration from Ohio University, United States, said the high tea event marked a new era for the country's current leadership.
"So far, no elected representatives have opened up their lines of communication.
"Najib has created a blog, and dabbled in Facebook, YouTube and a website that is constantly updated with the latest information."
As such, he said, the prime minister had taken the initiative to be more accessible to the people by using the latest technology and at the same time, listen to their grouses.
Desmond said the Najib administration had reached a new level in the "walk the talk" concept where he would try to solve the problems based on the feedback received online.
"For example, based on my own experience, through the 1Malaysia blog and the Prime Minister's Department website in May last year, I reported the risks faced by parents, teachers and students when crossing the suspension bridge at Nanga Klassen Sri Aman as the cables are in danger of being disconnected from the bridge.
"Several weeks later, villagers at Nanga Klassen told me they saw several four-wheel-drive vehicles from the State Development Office of the Prime Minister's Department there.
"We were shown a letter from the Implementation Coordination Unit of the department for the construction of a RM400,000 semi-concrete bridge at Nanga Klassen."
Desmond said the suspension bridge was the only way to Sekolah Rendah Nanga Klassem and although the elected representatives had tried their best to get financial support from the relevant agencies, their bid failed to get any attention due to bureaucratic problems and financial constraints.
"I am monitoring the progress of the project and this proved that the prime minister's website has made it easier and faster to channel development funds to those who urgently need it."
He said the prime minister had illustrated the power of the Internet in disseminating and getting information and he had taken action in the interest of the targeted groups.
This, Desmond added, should be emulated by other leaders.
The blogger also called for more of Najib's walkabouts in rural areas as not many villagers had the opportunity to meet and shake hands with the prime minister.
He hoped an event such as the tea party with the prime minister would not be the last as it could be used as an alternative medium to listen to various problems from the grassroots.
"The best thing during the event was that Najib and his online friends were willing to exchange ideas for the sake of the nation." -- Bernama
