Proton Prevé…..pee ve.

As Proton strife to prove that Proton City is still able, as in a saga to producing cars when all numbers didn’t add up while sagas continues, they tried really hard to put this show up for all. Office politically driven, Group of Engineers from the Elite team has decided to move their expert operation back to the UK. While that saga happened, the rest who stay would have to meet a political requirement to show that the Proton City is not just an white elephant, but a plant that can produced “quality” cars.

Come Proton Prevé.

Given a week after launch, Here are the sightings of the car…. Pictures are screen captured from facebook.

Proton Prevé - the broken axle when salesman tried to bring the car at 120kmph and hit the pavement,

They need post production change management! and Operation Management Business Process Review!

The loco engineers may have make some assumptions when building this car, they probably met Murphy for the first time in their life. As always, Murphy’s Law rules!

ref: http://conference.herdsa.org.au/2005/pdf/non_refereed/296.pdf

Truly, a “quality” writings from Swinburne University of Technology Sarawak Campus… 

Points of contentions:
1. It is categorised as non-refereed text for the conference. I would have thought public paper should not include spot quotes and non-refereed information establishment. In the part of quoting models indifferences, quoting of one model was not tallied to the comparative model used. 

2. Coming from the head of school and a director, if they are in my fellowship, this publication would have been put back for further referral.

3. Also, in one part of the writings, a system was referred to as an instrument without qualifying the nature, and/or construct, and/or mechanism of such instrument.

4. The citation(s); in ambiguity; of the differences in models adopted per locale were not qualified by data to show differences therein.

5. “becoming more and more” is flawed in the English grammars.

6. The dis-ambiguity of the abstracts and the introduction/conclusion is also questionable. The cultural differences as compared to “To those important issues are related also cultural difference of the students and staffs, time difference between campuses’ locations and many others.” and “increasing cultural level of the local population”

7. Requoting “To those important issues are related also cultural difference of the students and staffs, time difference between campuses’ locations and many others.”, I wonder how sentence of such constructs (not complying to subject and Predicate rules) could exist in a conference paper?

Wonder what’s the take on quality of education by Wee Ka Siong on the stance of IPTS after he reads this publication?

Hacking attempt sighted!

Corporate sectors (Burger King, Courts, Firefly) version of 1Malaysia – Sarawak not part of it?????

Posted by Pierce in Demographic Mentality | Tagged , , , | Comments Off

I am writing this with a pinch of salt.

Burger King Malaysia

Claims to be representing the company in Malaysia, but essentially missed out the meaning of Malaysia. Their promo does NOT include Sarawak because they DO NOT have any outlet here in Sarawak. When asked when are they opening an outlet, they just use the answer “soon”

If you dig further, they will say “KLIA, Sabah and Sarawak are under a different franchise”

Very NOT 1Malaysia

Courts

For Sarawak, Their promotion on Maxi Purchase free Ipad2 is actually the old Samsung Tablet whereas in other states, they are giving Ipad 2. Oh! By the way, Their interest rate can well be high enough for them to purchase 2 unit of such things. at 2.5% a month, I would rather pay with Credit card which charge at 1.8% per month.

Very NOT 1Malaysia

Firefly

They have stopped flying to Sarawak and they code share with MAS for the rest of the booked tickets. Their PR seems to neglect all the Sarawakian who has been promoting their service during their mere 10 months presence here in Sarawak. This chinese new year, they did however gave to bloggers in Semenanjung a box of goodies but not for those from Sarawak!.

Very NOT 1Malaysia

 

Now, can we get back to a plural society and treat Sarawakian the same as those from the Semenanjung?

POSTME

The radio advertisement quantified that the delivery service is only available in Semenanjung.

Very NOT 1 Malaysia.
