First Travel in 2007 and FREE WiFi
This is my first travel on official duty in 2007. Started on 16th Mac 2007 and the trip is to Alor Setar, Kedah. A normal 5 hour journey took me thirteen and a half hours. Well of course including sleeping in the car along the journey. I will stop at RnR to sleep whenever my eyes couldn’t stand it anymore. A three lane on the highway appears to be four and sometimes merge into one. So rather than meeting any consequences I better park my car and sleep.
After my duty in Alor Star completes, I move down to Ipoh. Stayed at Park City Hotel which is nearby the Perak Sports Complex. The hotel is a budget hotel but room is spacious and the rate is affordable. I took a Superior room on the new block at RM98.00. Another plus for staying in the hotel is that it provide free wifi internet which is available at the lobby. The last time I stayed at the hotel I can manage to access the internet from my room. However the signal is quite weak and I could hardly get 54Mbps. Just enough to get connected to the internet .
This time around I stayed at the 6th floor and could get access from a few spots of the JARING-Redsnapper. I am not sure who provide the FREE access but I think its the Perak Government initiavites to set up that coverage. It I am correct then this is the third effort by the governement to setu up FREE internet access for the public. One is at MITC in Air Keroh, Malacca. Then the Sarawak Government is doing the same for Miri resident.
I think I can lift my hat to the Perak State Government for providing this FREE access. Even this blog is written and posted from Tapah RnR along the North South Highway (PLUS) which is also FREE. This is one of the FREE wifi access zone along the highway. Another one is at the Sungai Perak RnR.
It is high time that the government provide FREE internet access at all government buildings to boost the internet usage capacity and spur Malaysian to be more computer literate and internet savvy. The internet is an ocean of knowledge which is waiting to be harvested and tapped.
Tahniah! Tahniah! Beregu Badminton Negara
Kejayaan pasangan ini adalah satu contoh kerjasama baik antara pemain (Kien Keat/Boon Heong) dan jurulatih (Rexy Mainaky/Yap Kim Hock) dan semua pihak terbabit yang menyumbang dalam kejuaraan mereka seperti khidmat sokongan sains sukan dan sebagainya.
“Pada masa sama, janganlah lupakan jasa jurulatih lama seperti Low Kean Tiong (bekas jurulatih Boon Heong) yang membimbing dari peringkat awal hingga sampai ke tahap sebegini,” demikian kata Ketua Pengarah Majlis Sukan Negara, Datuk Dr. Ramlan bin Abdul Aziz.

Destination Port Dickson
Left my house at 9.00 pm and drove up to PD through the North South Highway (PLUS). The journey to PD is just about 1hr 15 minutes. Drive along the PLUS Highway and then take Exit 219. Toll rate from Sg Besi Toll Plaza is RM 7.70. After passing the toll plaza you will reach a traffic light and take a right turn. Drive straight until you see another sign showing the route to Port Dickson. From there you have the choice of using the trunk road or the highway. The trunk road will take you through Mantin and Rantau. Whereas the highway will take you direct to Port Dickson but you still have the exits to Mantin and Springhills. The open toll fare for this highway is RM 2.60.
The distance from Kuala Lumpur to Port Dickson is about 13 kilometres.
My destination in Port Dickson is Tiara Beach Resort. I will update this blog later with some pictures of Tiara Beach Resort.

The wifi internet access is from Kemang Internet.

Kalah Menang Dalam Sukan
Bagi peminat sukan majoriti yang nampak kejayaan negara ialah dari segi jumlah pingat yang dipungut. Mereka tidak kira kualiti pencapaian. Dalam Kursus Sains Sukan Tahap II di bawah Skim Persijilan Kejurulatihan Kebangsaan jurulatih didedahkan dengan konsep kalah menang dalam sukan. Tujuannya ialah agar jurulatih dapat menyampaikan konsep bahawa menang dalam sukan bukan sekadar ditentukan oleh keputusan perlawanan secara objektif. Jika dalam perlawanan bolasepak Pasukan A menjaringkan 2 gol sementara Pasukan B menjaringkan 1 gol, maka pasukan A dianggap menang. Itu secara objektifnya. Tetapi bagi seorang jurulatih mereka harus melihat lebih jauh dari itu. Walaupun Pasukan A dalam contoh di atas mengatasi lawannya dengan kelebihan 1 gol tidak semestinya pasukan B diaggap tewas dalam konsep Kalah Menang dalam sukan. Mungkin Pasukan memberikan persembahan yang lebih baik tetapi nasib tidak menyebelahi mereka menyebabkan mereka tidak dapat menjaringkan satu lagi gol untuk menyamai Pasukan A.
Sebagai seorang peminat sukan yang kritikal kita harus melihat kualiti persembahan dalam sesuatu perlawanan dan bukan sekadar keputusan.
Jika sekiranya Nazmizan mencatat masa 10.01 saat dalam larian 100 meter di Korat kelak tetapi keputusan objektifnya dia hanya memenangi pingat Gangsa, apakah kita kata Nazmizan tewas. Belum ada pelari pecut mencatit masa elektronik sebaik itu dan ini menunjukkan kualiti persembahan Nazmizam adalah lebih baik walaupun tewas secara objektif. Inilah yang harus kita lihat dalam menilai prestasi sesuatu pasukan.
Sehubungan dengan itu jika kontingen negara tidak mampu mencapai jumlah pingat yang sama seperti di Manila sekalipun, kita tidak seharusnya mempersalahkan Majlis Sukan Negara sebagai pihak yang bertanggungjawab menyediakan atlet negara. Kita harus lihat kualiti atlet yang bertanding dan hasil persembahan mereka. Jika pencapaian peribadi mereka meningkat dan lebih baik dengan mencipta masa, jarak atau mata yang tinggi, maka atlet-atlet itu harus diberi penghargaan. Kita yang sentiasa membuat teguran dan komen ini, adakah mampu melakukan apa yang atlet kita lakukan? Adakah kita sanggup mengorbankan masa, tenaga, wang ringgit dan keluarga seperti mereka semata-mata untuk mengalas Jalur Gemilang dan mengibarkannya tinggi di arena antarabangsa. Kita janganlah diumpamakan sebagai Menang Sorak Kampung Tergadai. Jumlah pingat sahaja banyak tetapi kualiti pencapaian tidak sehebat mana.
