[quote] Nick Price of North Canberra said the trouble started when he and his brother, John, walked down the middle of Anzac Parade carrying a large "FREE TIBET" banner.
'everyone was running with their flags and probably a mob of 100 Chinese surrounded us, pushing us, trying to steal the banner, throwing sticks at us, a lot of abuse,'' he said
these comments were taken from an interview published inside the The Canberra Times dated April 25th, Friday, the day after the Olympic torch relay event hailed as success by the ACT chief minister, Mr John Stanhope.
SUCCESSSS???????????
ahhhhhhhh.....................hampeh.....
telling u the truth, i believe all the stories told by Mr Nick Price.
i was at canberra that day and i managed to follow the event from the start and capture some photos during that historical event.
while i admit that i didnt get the photos of the olympic torch with the athletes as the torch bearer, but yepp, i experienced a whole new episode of "The thug of the red army".... 
i tell u aaaaaaa........those red army aaaa....waaaa very ganas man...........
i was walking inside this red army group (pro-chinese supporters), pretending like m one of them when suddenly they stopped at a junction waiting for the traffic to be cleared.
then as we waited to cross the street, a car with a family of three australian inside, wearing a free tibet t shirt and a balloon floating by the side of the car carriying a Free Tibet message, drove passed this group.
i just look at this car driver and thought of giving them a thumb up sign when in a blink of an eye, a man from this red army group suddenly runs towards this car and to my surprise, grab the "Free Tibet" balloon and blast the balloon on the streets to the thunderous clapped from his colleague.......damnnnnnnnn..........
peerghhhhhhhhh...what can i say is "KURANGGGGGG HAJAARRRRRRR sungguh derang nihhhhhh....perghhhhh.....hangin nye aku nengok.........
well....the pro tibet protesters were outnumbered by the pro chinese supporters.
reports on the news stated that the pro tibet were outnumbered by the pro chinese by five to one.
the pro tibet protesters even alleged that the pro chinese supporters where mainly students and expatriates working in australia, were bussed straight to canberra from melbourne and sydney just to support the event.
well....who sponsored the bus fare for the 20 000 estimated chinese supporters to canberra???????????
can anyone give me the answer?????
well, according to reports,most of the expenses, transport, accommodation, strategies, tactics, marshals, face markings and issues of Chinese flags, was arranged by the Chinese Embassy.....hhmmmmmm.....sounds macam UMNO nye style????
paying the fares to the kelantanese so that they can go home and cast their vote for UMNO.......rm200 per head to the kelantanese......and the result of the general election??
hahahahahahahaha....bijak bijak.....org kelate nih memang bijak bijak belaka......
the reports also stated that the chinese embassy have their own intelligence to maintain a close surveillance on most of the Chinese students in australia, so that students will always be controlled by the embassy....senang crita kira depa nih ' rent-a-crowd' lah...
hang bayar aku aku sapot hang....ala...sama la kat sini kat malaysia ni pun....
hahahaha......
which of course lah the Chinese denied it.
they claimed they came to show their support for their country, and to spread the Olympic spirit.
haiyaaaaa.....ntah lah sapa aku nak sokong nih
m a kind of sports enthusiasts which before this i always supports any sporting events.
i thought why must we mix the olympics with the politics.....
i even second roger federer views that its unfair to the athletes to boycott the olympics as the athletes have spent their life just to train and to go to the olympics..,,,,
yeahh...betullll......but my support for the olympics had vanished with what i saw in canberra....
yeahhh really...i always wonder if the chinese can do this kind of mob and thugs here in australia, then what if i were to wear a free tibet message t shirt in china instead???
perghhhh.....i can be sure that i ll be receiving the same treatment as altantuya lah....for sure
hmm....yesss i had a little discussion with my chinese friend about the situations there in tibet.
he said that actually theres nothing the chinese government did wrong to the tibetans.
its just that some of the monks in tibet started to feel the heat over the chinese government as the government is trying to cut off some of their powers.
he told me that in Tibet, the monks are very well treated by the people.
the monks is treated like God there in tibet.....if u want to live wealthier and happier, then u should become a monk- he told me.....
u will feel the tense and pressure during the training but once u finished the training and u become a monk, then u will be treated like God.
wahhhh bestnya....rugi aku masuk training jadi technician nih...hahahahahaha
training jadi monk lagi best rupenye....hehehehehe...
just kidding guys  (off course i feel honoured to get into this apprenticeship program with one of the leading airline co in the world  )
so the chinese goment is trying to impose all this kind of restrictions to these monks when these angered the monks and they started to bring the tibetan people to merusuh
and all that...thats what the reason behind the free tibet message....they want to get the freedom so that they can continuously get the special treatment.....itu je sebab nya....
hmmmm...i dont know....
i need to do some research on this before i can comment further....
but yess, ada logik gak apa yg mamat ni cakap kat aku...hmmmm
well, back to the torch relay event.......
well thats the only photos that i managed to capture....
what amazed me is the people in australia is very open and understanding...if u dont agree with them, then u can always open a debate with them in a proper manner.....
not like the red army acting like thugs and samseng creating some violent scuffles with those who have different point of view from them.....

ahhhhh......its been a while since my last posting on my fotopages.
it takes about 6 months for me to update my fotopages since my last posting.
its not that i havent took any interesting photos during the last 6 months.
its not that theres nothing interesting happening in my life during the last 6 months.
its not i hve been detained inside the ISA during the last 6 months....oooopppppsssss...
tersasul....hehehe
theres so much interesting stories happening during the last 6 months.
one of the most interesting is the outcome of the general election on the 8th march....which nik aziz described it as a political tsunami.
Tsunami??? wahhhhhh....
well every one in this country knows about tsunami.
u ask any of the malaysian, they sure can answer what is tsunami.
especially those in penang where some of them have tasted and still haunted with the phobia of the tsunami as they have experinced it first hand.
but in the contacts of political tsunami, which is still a new term to use to describe the outcome of the last general election, everyone in the 5 states (not only in penang), have experinced the tsunami...by now we still feel the aftermath of the tsunami.....
yesss...people say the aftermath of the tsunami is the worst.
but yeah we ll see....
so the last 6 months i ve read that so many people have ventured into blogging.
that would be khir toyo where his selangor state seat have fallen to the pakatan rakyat government....
our beloved ex premier mahathir mohammad aka cek det,also have started his own blog...ahhhhh....the new information minister itu shabery cheek also has recognized the power of the bloggers in bringing down the government....ahhhh...baru hang tau....
hahahahahaha
i started to miss itu zainuddin maidin lah....that ex misinformed nye information minister...
aiyah....i m sure hell never give that recognition to those bloggers like this new information minister...all bloggers are goblok....i remember him saying this when asked by one journalist what he thinks of lim kit siang's blog.......hahaha
i miss u zam....hahahahahaha
so now, i can proudly say that 'hey, i known it for so long ago lah'
luckily i have started this 'fotoblog' earlier than them.
so aku tak tiru depa aaaaa....
well, the reason i been "missing" from this site for the past 6 months is i have been busy preparing and 'worrying' about my future.
well, 'future'?????????
woooooooo.....sounds so serious????
well, fyi, the last 6 months would be the most tense and stressful moment in my life.
preparing for my final exam is something that i really look into seriously as this exam would bring my life into a whole new level.
when i say a new level, i really mean a new level 
hehe...cam best best je kan?
ok to make it short, if i pass the final exam, i would be given a new pay, a new uniform, a new offer letter into a new department, and of course i would indirectly get a new level of self confidence....hahahahaha
so after this exam i would say that i m more confident of myself.....when ur self confidence has boost up, u can go and do anything that u think impossible before this.
impossible here means something that u dont even dare to do when u re under apprenticeship/ training.....ok lah senang cerita, i give u one example lah since i have finished my training/exam kan?
ok camni..before the exam, i dont even dare to say "hi" to the cabin crew.....
but now the moment i finished and pass my exam, esok nya masuk kapal selambe je terus sembang with those cabin crew...
hahahahahahaha....self confidence makin tinggi maaaa....aku dah lepas exam...aku dah ada gaji..hahahaha...now is the time to cari calon
hahahahahahaha
ahhhh
im missing the plot here.......ok stop
we'll talk about BERSIH now!!!!!!!!!
ok i need to recall back my memories during the november 10 gathering.
today is already may 12, 6 months aback....ahhh...recall recall......
ok...BERSIH is a coalition of NGO s and the opposition party formed in the needs of to call for a clean and fair election to the government.
The Committee of the BERSIH comprises members from the political parties, as well as representatives from the following NGOs: Suara Rakyat Malaysia (Suaram), Women’s Development Collective (WDC) and Writers Alliance for Media Independence (WAMI).
dahsyat dahsyat tu the ngos yg join the committee...
so on nov 10, they had organized a gathering tryin to get 10 000 signatures and tryin to send the signed memorandum in calling for fair and clean election to the King at Istana negara.and of course they managed to send it despite all the tear gas throwing as u can see here at my fp.
ok now, i ll try to write it form the morning of the 10 nov.
ahh, it was a fine sunday morning when i decided to go KL to buy some new stuffs for my camera.
i cant remember exactly what is the stuff i bought that day.
so i went to my favorite camera shop somewhere in pertama complex in Kl.
fyi, pertama complex is always my first stop whenever i turun KL coz i found that almost everything that i need, can be found in that area.
so, when i done with my shopping, i go straight back to lrt station and headed home to sepang when suddenly i received a call from my brother tellin me that he is going for the BERSIH gathering/rally somewhere in KL i asked me whether i m interested to join him there?
since i m still there in KL, i said " why not? "
so ya lah, i agree to join him and wait for him inside the bandar tasik selatan LRT station as he will also take the train from bandar tasik selatan.
so there i waited anxiously for about 1 and a half hour i guess as my bro keep on sms me sayin that he is trapped inside a massive traffic jams
...aiyahhhhh
cannot wait anymore lah
i need to go aand arrive there before 2 pm if not mistaken.
cause from i hear is they are going to ber arak to the istana negara starting at 2 pm.
so if i late, i gonna miss the boat
i might miss the action and the drama....
so yes after waiting about an hour for my brother to arrive, we then straight to the bandaraya lrt station where all the action had already started....ahhhhh ruginyaaaa.......
it was raining heavily there at the bandaraya lrt station
so we then hop off the train then straight to the main road.
and all i can see is the unformed policemen patrolling the area...wahh so many policemen lah....
then we decided to go back to masjid jamek station as my bro got sms from his colleague sayin all the action is actually happened there in front of masjid jamek.
so we took the train and off we go to the masjid jamek stn
and guess what,....as soon as we hopped of the train, we can hear screaming of ALLAHUAKHBAR,....
so we run to the exit but the policemen there wont allow us to get out from the station.
they even closed down the gate with the help of the rapidkl staff so that people cant run inside or outside the station....arghhhhhh...cilakak betui la....
so i dont care, i just take out my camera then i started to shoot all the moments just from inside the the masjid jamek station.
so as u can see here, i didnt involved directly with the 'scene' and 'drama'.
one of my fellow fotografer friend even said that i pengecut....he commented to my photos "play safe nampak"
arghhhh
i m not playing it safe laaaaaa
its just that the policemen there at the station is closing down the entrace gate so that people can be transported back to the safest location like in pudu using the train
suka suka hati kau ja kata aku play safe.
hang lagi play safe terus tak datang....berani turun la that day
so here are the photos that i managed to capture lah using a limited time and space due to certain hiccups and things that cant be avoided.
so enjoy the photos eventhough that its a bit basi dah pun.....
hahahahaha
6 months after baru nak post sini
hahahahaha
ahhh forget one thing
one of the photos of mine is published inside the national geographic online magazine....
ehem ehem....play safe play safe pun masuk national geographic tu....hahahahaha

MAS 18th Biennial Athletics Meet 8-9 Sept 2007
|
|
it was just a normal visit to the electrical workshop when an old friend of mine, Mursyidul, asked me whether if its ok if he offer me a job as a photographer to cover the biennial malaysia airlines athletics meet in kelana jaya on the 8th and 9th september....
honestly, i have no guts to cover such a big event alone....with just minimal equipment....no i wasnt ready honestly......to cover such big sporting event, i need at least super fast telephoto lens to capture the action of the athletes.....
so, when mursyidul, a friend and also one of the committee member offered me the job, i told him that go and try to find someone else first,then kalao takde baru cari i
so, of course Mursyidul went to find this mamat, who is really a professional photographer complete with a telephoto lens, ala lens yg panjang tu yg biasa org pakai for tangkap gambar sukan....haaaa...yes, mamat ni equipment dia lengkap...
but, since mamat ni a pro, of course la mamat ni demand sket lah....so he asked for payment lah to get the job done ... i agree with him coz he spent thousands of ringgit on his equipment alone...
tapi senang cerita dia demand tinggi la yg kelab sukan mas tak mampu la nak bagi...
so,as for me, being a beginner, tak le demand tinggi2....cukup la kalao kelab sukan mas provide me with makan minum, accommodation and tshirt free 2 helai for this 2 day event....hehehe...
so yes, me and azlan, another beginner got the job lah to cover the whole event....
and these are some of the shots captured during the event.....overall...yes, i m quite happy with the results provided this is my first time covering a major sporting event....though i would prefer to be one of the athletes competing in the 400m....tapi now badan dah berat...so jadi photographer je lah
since i was assigned by the kelab sukan mas, so all of these photos become theirs lah.... 
so i saw a few of them being displayed in the pulse (an e magazine published for mas staff around the world to get to know what are their counterpart in other stations are doing).....
best lah...my photos tuuuuu...published in the pulse.....
but yg tak best nye....all of the photos published in the e magazine semua nya gambar yg biasa from my perspective of being the photographer of the event.....nothing special in terms of the angle of the composition...
well, what to do....i m just the event photographer....not the editor of the magazine...
so i ve got no power in deciding which pics to be published inside the magazine...
hehehe....
ps- ahh lupa....on the final day, Mursyidul told me that Kelab Sukan Mas would pay an allowance of rm25 perday....so kaya la aku dengan itu rm50 for the 2 day event....hahahaa...berbaloi ka? what do u think???

team australia

team australia-
i always feel that myself is somehow connected to australia in some other way which i could not explain......hehehe...perasan jap....
tapi what i know about australia is that its such a big, first world country with a population of hampir sama dengan malaysia..yup...country besar....population lebe kurang msia je...dalam 20 juta org gak laaa....
tapi kan, what i wanna say bout australia is that they always produced such a world class athletes in various sports discipline....power2...team cricket dia...world champ...
casey stoner....itu motogp punya rookie...australian.....lagi sapa....rugby derang, the wallabies top 3 dalam ranking IRB.....hockey team derang....even itu socceroos pun kuat gak.......swimming tak usah cakap la...punya ramai swimmer...best betull....kagum aku dengan derang nye sports science....memang advance....
cuma yg tak best derang nya PM aje...itu Howard.....kaki bodek Bush no 1....huhuhu
berbalik kpd bunga api ni tadi...ya ....yg ni pon aku respek n salute derang nih....
just for info.....the team that represents australia in this competition is Howard and Sons Pyrotechnics Pty Ltd....haaaa...jgn silap lak....bukan itu John Howard ngn anak2 dia punya co.....huhuhuhu...takda kaitan aaaaa........cuma nama je sama...hehehehe...kalo kat Malaysia lain lah......hahahahahah...sure anak menantu nye co gak yg dapat wakil Malaysia...hahahahahahha
haaaaaaaa...yg ni pon satu...power gak la team nih...
this team is the company that won a contract to display the fireworks in disneyland...
Disneyland tuuuu...memang power la derang nih....
so since they have such a good reputation, i decided this time i m going to get the pictures of the fireworks from a different angle and different styles.
i decided to go to precinct 19 where i could get a nice view of the fireworks with its reflection on the surface of the lake....
tapi hasilnya langsung tak memuaskan hati....
adeiiii...bosan nya....so ini je lah hasilnya....
terus terang, aku memang la tak puas hati dengan gambar2 nih.....hmmm...
reflection kat tasik tak nampak sgt...i should have use a smaller aperture....ahhh...
lagi lagi buat mistake je nih...takpalah.....
anyway, we re always in the process of learning, right?
hehehe..ayat untuk sedapkan hati...huhuhu
so, these are some of my humble shot viewed from tepi tasik here in precinct 19..
ok, thanks for viewing ya kengkawan....
p/s- team australia memang layan dia punya show.....lagi best dari msia...cuma aku berada di tempat yg salah ....arghhhhh

i ve set my sight on this competition for about two months before the kick off date which was on the 18th of august.....so yes, i was really keen and passionate bout it once i read it in the newspaper.
so on the opening day of the competition, i came as early as 6.30pm just to get myself a good spot to shoot for the fireworks....even though i ve read that the show will only starts at 10 pm and finishes after 20 minutes....
huh...20 minit aje.....adeiiii....datang punya awal, pukul 6.30ptg...event starts at 10 pm.....
pulak tu display dia punya bunga api lasted for about 20 minit aje...aiyaaaaa......
takpalah, bukan selalu pon ada kan??
hehehe...
for your info, this event was organised by tourism ministry to celebrate the 50th Merdeka Celebration and visit Malaysia Year 2007...tu pasal la derang bagi kaw kaw punya bunga api....hahahaha...best best.....couldnt believe me supporting that Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor yg tak best tu punya event...hahahahaha
most of the photos here were viewed from PICC....yes, i got a really good spot which the view centers to the seri gemilang bridge...tak sia2 aku datang pukui 6.30pm....hahaha
all of the photos here was the one that performed by team Malaysia.
team Malaysia which represented by pyro-splendour sdn bhd, gave a dazzling 20 minutes display themed "Gelombang Malaysia" complete with background music.
if u guys watchin the show here from PICC, u can see the fireworks blasted to the air mengikut alunan itu background music lah....so bila music slow....bunga api pon slow je meletup....memang best lah....world class....jakun betui aku masa nih....
hahahahhaaaaaa.....
so, thats all lah for now....overall i m quite happy with all of the pictures i captured except that i did noticed that most of my pictures here in this entry goes a bit reddish.....maybe due to the fact i ve chosen a wrong white balance setting in my dslr....takpalah...
itu je la yg aku tak puas hati....yg lain tu...semua nya ok...
no hal punya....learn from mistakes.....
ok kengkawan...enjoy

12 August 2007
Sunday.
my journey ; taiping-kuala kangsar-lenggong
it was a really nice cool sunday morning when i started my journey towards lenggong from my house in taiping.
i took a bus which cost me about rm 2.80 from the main road just next to my house, then straight to the small town of Lenggong. but the problem is, there is no bus going from taiping straight to lenggong. the bus will go for transit stop at kuala kangsar, then i need to hop on another bus to get into lenggong.
ahh what a waste of time.
if i go straight to lenggong from taiping, it will take me about an hour ride.
but now, it doubles.
but it doesnt matter lah....as long as my baby nikon is with me, i am happy to spend my time on the bus....
the journey from kuala kangsar to lenggong is the one i enjoyed most.
heavy rains accompanied me all the way from kuala kangsar.
in this very wet condition, its a thrill to ride inside a high speed bus which the driver seems to have a better skills compared to the sensational F1 rookie, Lewis Hamilton.
or even Fernando Alonso....
the routes is very macam ular kena palu, with a very narrow road, but the bus was constantly in 90 km/h speed.
fuhhhh...plus hujan lebat, plus the condition of the bus...which is semua nya goyang macam nak runtuh .... memang thrill lah this bus from Kuala-Lenggong.
best best...
the view is very nice with lots of tasik....tasik chenderoh...memang layan...
then going thru all the kampongs2 and even masuk area Sauk.....Bukit Jenalik....
do u guys remeber the bukit jenalik tragedy ka?
aiyah....that tragedy aaa....back in the year 2000...
i dont know whether its true or not, but sampai ada nyawa yg melayang tu, kalao itu hanya sandiwara, memang teruk lah...
for ur info, some of the opposition claims it was a tragedy "created" by the government to show to us malaysian and the rest of the world yg betapa bahayanya Islamic extremist nih....ntahla....but however, aku kesian gak la kat those ahli2 Al maunah nih...
the al maunah group demanded that the PM (Dr M) to step down....adeiii...korang ni sapa nak suruh PM turun? i know as rakyat, we have the right to voice out our dissatisfaction, but in a proper manner and channel lah......
adeii.....ntahlah....i m sure they were frustrated by the way the suruhanjaya pilihanraya yg cannot be trusted tu dealing with the recent election....thats why they go with their own way...angkat senjata...which for me its very wrong....aduiii...tak pasal2 je hang kena hanged ...
eishhh....bahaya nih....am i going too far....??
tak pasal2 lak aku kena ISA kang....huhuhuhuhuhu
oklah...enough of all the nonsense...
ok, talking bout my journey tadi...ya lah...i enjoyed most of them...masuk kampong2, tasik,....i wish i had my dream bike with me....sure syahdu punya datang sini dengan my dream bike....so that i can stop wherever i like, to take pictures..there were so many pictureseque spot here in Lenggong....ahhhhh,...rugi naik bas...
anyway, i did enjoyed my trip to lenggong...thanks anip for the invitation....hg punya kenduri memang best...tak rugi aku datang sana....dah lama siot aku tak pi lenggong or area2 situ....and congrats la kat hanif and faziella 
semoga bahagia hingga ke anak cucu dan ke akhir hayat...
lastly, sorry lah coz the pictures is not that menarik lah..almaklumlah, shot from inside a bus.....except for the gambar wedding lah....
thanks for viewing

buildings//architectures

u must be wondering if these pictures were taken at venice as there are lots of pictures viewed from the canal....
nahhh... u got it wrong.
actually, theres so many canals run thru amsterdam.
and of course, since there are canals here in amsterdam, the city is always compared with venice....
and ya lah, venice la lagi org nak pi....
venice, sikit2 honeymoon je kat venice....heh
amsterdam pon cun gak...
hahaha...
u see, the gondolas, in venice, they charge u about 200 euro for u to just got the feeling of naik gondola around venice for about, say, 1 hour.
mahal gila.....ya la, naik gondola kat the magical city of venice..,
tapi sini, amsterdam, i was charged for 6 euro for an hour ride around amsterdam...
tapi ya la, its not a gondola....only on a boat...
tak le romantik sgt compared to gondola n venice...tapi okla....nak lepas geram venice.
huhuhuhu...
these canals and old buildings in amsterdam were largely built masa dutch nye golden age in the 17th century lah.
really impressed with their city planning at that time.
us here in KL, i guess, masih tak mampu nak plan camni...
bukan nak pandang rendah la....
tapi tgk itu SMART tunnel suda...hahaha.
ahh,,...here in amsterdam, since the netherlands is such a small and flat country, the buildings is seem to be quite tinggi and built dekat2 to each other.
and its normal to see a kind of HOOK outside at the top of each building.
this HOOk is meant to lift up all the heavy stuff (drawer, sofas, cabinet, bed etc) to their house thru the windows.
and again, thats why, u can see, the size of all the windows is quite big.
hmm...nice la.
they prefer to use this method because the stairs in most of the building is so steep and sempit...so quite bahaya la if mau pindah all the barang thru tangga.
haha.
anyway, i think our city council in msia should learn more la from the amsterdam city council on how do they keep and preserve and appreciate all those old buildings here in amsterdam....bukan musnahkan and bina baru macam itu Bok House yg di robohkan baru ni kat Jalan Ampang...hampeh

The Flying Dutchman- Moses
|
|
From your brother Moses,
from Amsterdam,
My dad is Moroccan,
My mum is Indonesian (Bali)
you are welcome in my home country,
Besok kamu pulang ke Malaysia,
Have a nice trip,
I wish u a longer life,
Walhamdulillah
-this is the notes (in Arabic) that i got from a guy who helped us a lot when we were in Amsterdam.
his name is Moses, which is Musa in Arabic.
i had quite a lot of "intellectual" conversation with him which sometimes funny and sometimes quite irritating.
hehe
i still remember when am asking him bout his religion, when he answered that he is ChrIslam.
hampeh punya mamat.
hes 46 years of age this year.
he can speak up to 7 languages which includes 1.Dutch (of course), 2.German, 3.English, 4. Arabic, 5. Hebrew, a bit French and bahasa Indonesia.
all 7 fluently....
fuhhh...memang aku respek this mamat.
we chose to speak english and indonesian with him as thats the only language that we know.
to my surprise, he even knows how to translate surah Al Ikhlas.
he can even write the Surah and asked me to check if theres any wrong.
perghhh, perfect maaaa..
he said that "Bila saya pulang ke Indonesia, orang mahu cium tangan saya and mahu saya jadi Imam" just because he can speak Arabic and translate it and understand most of the surah in the Koran....fuh bahaya betul la mamat nih... 
tapi to me normal la....setakat ayah pin tu pon bule menipu punya ramei org...ayah pin tu yg muka toya tu, bole orang angkat dia....ni kan mamat ni, hensem la gak dari ayah pin tu...hahahahaha...
his ipod is full with surah2 Koran which he consider it as a very good music and he can sometimes cries when listening to it.hmmm....he's almost there, tapi sayang tak sampai lagi hidayah tu kat dia.
he told me that he wants to die in Islam. good. tapi dia sambung.....
"u guys belum tentu goes to heaven, but saya, before die, sebut LAILAHAILLALLAH, straight to Heaven"
hahahahaha...sesuka hati dia je. time nak mati baru nak ngucap, penat la....
anyway, he is really a nice guy and very intelligent i can say.
cuma the weed//cannabis tu memang tak lekang dari tangan dia.
dah jadi macam rokok dah aku nengok and the cannabis had no major effect on him. dia rilek je, tak lalok pun aku nengok.heh
hmm...oh, lupa...
he also drives an AUDI TT....sabar je lah..
he bought it for 35000 euros....murah siot duit sana.
so, anyone going to Amsterdam and wanna meet this fantastic guy, do please contact me.
i can give his address to u guys, cuma jangan terpengaruh je la ngn dakyah2 dia.,..
