Hi KaDuSVillian, sorry for the long update. I actually way too busy with life. Life a an working adult, part-time businessman, part-tike student. Hell, im involve in both district and state level kaamatan committee. Both in Sugandoi competition. For those who dont know what im talking about above, let me explain a bit. Kaamatan is a celebration celebrated by KadazanDusun like me in Sabah. It is a harvest festival where people will celebrate the paddy harvest season. Although nowadays people hv less paddy field, but the spirit to celebrate kaamatan is.still strong among sabahan. This celebration is celebrated every year on the 30-31 OF May every year, with some modern touch in it. The Sugandoi in other and is the singing competition. Its has become a major.part in Kaamatan celebration after the Unduk Ngadau (beauty queen).

Enuff bout that. This waht made me quite busy. Havent have that much precious.time to go and 'play' with my camera. My weekends is fully occupied with studies and weekdays, as usual, with works. Im studying part time but seriously im struggling. I just cant get my hand on what ive been studying. Its a big probem, considering im approaching the crucial time of my life. well, i have to just give it a try. No matter what.

KaDuS Entertainment
This is my baby. This is my passion. The. Local music industry, im running with my friend.under KaDus Entertainment. Im entering the 6th year in KE. And still i dont want it to be a major industry, or even changing it to be a major company in Saah. I just love how KE runs at the.moment. Well, when things getting more successful, they will be people who might thing they can do what they want. Sorry to say, but u r wrong. Although KE meant for everyone, it doesnt means that anybody can do or act on behalf of me. Im still the Founder/Owner of KE. Put that in you dictionary. For people who think that they can do what they wishes is wrong. They way KE runs it business is different than any other company, and i want it to be that way. Even if i have to dig my own money for.that. so if anyone thinking of doing what he/she like, stop it, u giving urself a big trouble. Ehehe

Twitter Activity vs Facebook
Aving dificulty accessing my FB acc for.almost a week. Dunno what have i done wrong, but i think i am.happy with it. i done feel that i 'really' need FB to operate my daily life, although FB has become useful tool nowadays, apart from social networking. Hmm... the words networking says it all. I've been more active in twitter. Set up an account way back in 2007 and only last year become.active again. No wonder more 'newbie' had become.more activethan me. Heehe . As for my FB account, ill try to figure it out this.coming days. Well at the time if writing i've completed 1 week without FB. Haahaha

Earthquake, Tsunami, Nuclear Scare in Japan
On friday, a powerful earthquake hit the coast of Japan. It measure 8.9 on the richter scale and has been billed as the largest quake in record. The effect of the quake, well, tsunami. About 10m high of tsunami hits Japan and reports saying that might be almost 10k people had died.or missing. The nuclear plant at Fukushima also 'having big problem'. And reports i read stated that one of the reactor had explode, and there are radiation leakage in surrounding area. One unofficial reports stated that one of volcano mountain in Japan had exploded. But.this.is.yet to be confirm.

Wat can you see or wrap up above? Dooms Day? The making of 2012? First, condolences to the people of Japan and those.who lost their.love one in this disaster. My prayer and thoughts are.with you. Be Strong.
I learn baout this when looking at the trending topic in twitter on my phone. I quickly went ack to the office.and inform my colleague about.ths, rush to see the news in the computer and the tsuami alarm as been rang in Japan, warningpeople that a tsuami is iminent. It was shockingly scary to see the footage from CNN, BBC and AlJazeera. the wave of tsunami hitting everything in it path. no forces could stop it. I still wondering what had.happen to the one car, who try to reverse back when the tsunami wave almost hits.the roads.

This.is God power.

Back... Nor From Exile. Hehehehe... Okay, Don't waste any more time. Let's go on with this review. The KaDuS Entertainment Next Top Entertainer competition that entered Heat two last Friday, 5 Mac 2010. The Audience respoded to me that this heat so far has become the best heat in this season of KE Next Top Entertainer. This heat build up from the low to the highest quality of performances. On paper, this heat is bills as one of the toughest out of 5 heats and it's proved to be true, as 10 contestant trying hard to give their best of convincing the three judges that night to be the top 2 automatic entry to the Final.

The Top two contestant who make it to the finals are As Bryan Amre and Rudy Paul Pailus. Both manage to convince the judges to select them as two of the best singer that night. There were hope left for two female contestant (both heat 2 finalist are male), as they were both handed another chance to perform in one more heat, namely the Wild Card Heat where the top 2 of this heat will gain a backdoor entry to the Grand Finale. Jeniffer Julius, impressed the judges to vote for her, while the audience voted for Jasliah Elon as their choice to have another go at the competition. The Wildcard Round will be on 3rd April and the Grand Finale will be held on 16th April 2010.

The raining season is back... Huhuhu.. Although it is much easier for me to move around this day, i still find it very difficult to move around. Hahahaha... I have a slight problem driving in the rain as my sight is limited. Apa lagi kalau heavy rain. Huhuhuhu... But i need to practice it. Just in case i really have to drive in a very heavy rain condition. Pathetic. Huhuhuhu... Okay... Slight update on what i've been doing lah...

KaDuS Entertainment
I'm currently looking for a main sponsor for KE next big project, probably the season 2 of KENTE. For those of you who might not have an idea of what KENTE is, it is KE Next Top Entertainer which we successfully organized last January to April this year. The expectation is a bit higher for next season as we might have made impossible to possible. Hmmm... TQ to All my friend who works hard for it (gogds, sumandak, jasonjay, tomkurus, olumis, sumpitt, mamai, lissa, miklin, ayuki and DJ Mark).

Sabahan.FM
I've been getting a lot and lot of listener. Not fans lah because, siapalah sia ni mo ada fans... I love my slots, from midnight to 3 am. It is tiring but i just love it... wekekekeke... Sorou poh. So tune in to me at Sabahan.FM everyday (if there is no other plan) from 12.00 am til 3.00 am.

KaDuS Bilang:
Saja Mo update ni blog... ahaks...

Me? A Dee Jay? Are you serious. Wekekeke... ya... I am... I've been doing this for the past few days, but i feel like been doing this for ages... dei.. .adakah.

I never thought that i would someday become a DJ, although it's only an online radio station and only a few listener. Never in my wildest dream that i would become a DJ. But knowing me, when an opportunity arise, i will grab it. No matter how... This opportunity comes when i held a meet up with Sabahan.Fm mastermind AbgLang (also the founder of Sabahan.Net) with his crew. This build up a 'very good' relationship with Sabahan.Net and KaDuS Entertainment. FYI, i am one of the Founder of KaDuS Entertainment.

Being a DJ for me it's not an easy task. Much harder than managing a new/raw talent but a bit easier than taking photograph or singing. Wekekekeke... I admit that i did not have proper training and exposure prior to being a DJ. The only job i've done which is a bit similar or close to being a DJ is Emceeing. When i look back, i smiled... how on earth an IT staff could do a DJ job. Wakakakaka...

Starting to love this job. although i didn't get paid for doing this, i still love it. The listener feedback was a motivation for me to continue this job. All their critics, comment, i accepted it and try to improve it in the future. Wah... Dunno lah... but if this can be materialized, but hopefully one day Sabahan.FM will be known as Sabahan FM (without the Dot.), with a studio and an office. Wah.. Dream Dream!!!

For those you want to tune in to me, Please visit http://sabahan.fm/listen.pls. You will be prompt to download a file. just download it put it on your Desktop so that next time you just need to click it, instead of have to download it again. Oh, my air time is always at 12.00am to 3am daily. I don't know if there is any reshuffle on the schedule, but as for this time of writing, this is my time. My DJ style: Talk and Talk and spin song. I will entertain song request but it depend on my collection. If i got it, I'll spin it. If no, then i;m sorry maybe I'll spin it next time i am on air... I don't set any topics of discussion but sometime, topics comes in... wekekekeke...

Okay.. i have to go... See ya...

How to announce your arrival in English Football scene???

A. Make your Debut for Manchester United at the age of 17
B. Scoring on your debut against top 6 English team
C. Scores the winning goal in injury time
D. Celebrate that goal so passionately
E. All Above.

If you are Frederico Macheda, your answer will be E. He done that, after scoring the winning goal so very late against Aston Villa, when the Kops supporters already smiling and thinking that they stay on top... or maybe level on point, but on the very final minutes Kiko Macheda struck the goal that would retain Man. Utd top of the Baclays Premierleague table by 1 point.

But Who is Frederico Macheda?
Frederico Macheda was born on 22 August 1991 in Rome. He was a youngster plying his trade for Lazio Youth team. Lazio president Claudio Latito rate him highly. No wonder his frustrations shows, when Kiko scores the winning goal, as he is the one who has to let Kiko go to United.

Kiko, now plays regularly for the Reserves Team but stil eligible for the Under-18 squad. Days before his dream debut for Manchester United 1st Team, he scores a hatrick against Newcastle reserve. Guess what, Sir Alex Ferguson has told reserve team manager, United Legend, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer that if Kiko plays well during the weeks, he (kiko) will earns himself a place on the Man. Utd bench. The highest possible start for a youngster in Manchester United.

Kiko took every chances given to him. By scoring a hatrick, he went on to Manchester United bench. When United was trailing by 2 goal to 1, he was brought in in the 60th minute, and the effect of his introduction was brilliant. He terrorize Aston Villa defend and should have won a penalty and score much earlier.

That Goal
Receiving a pass prom Ryan Giggs, make a quick turn to his left and left fly a curling shot to score what could be one of the best goal by a debutant this season.

This Saturday will mark the end of a very long and tiring Heat session for the KE Next Top Entertainer Season 1 (KENTE S1) organized by KaDuS Entertainment. We will unveil the last two contestant who will complete the lineup for the Final of KENTE S1. Who will it be???

For info: They will be 13 contestants for Heat 5 where only two of them will be selected to the final, tentatively scheduled on 4th April 2009 at Pusakag Cafe. Some of the contestant i knew well and some i know can sing well. The rest is a total stranger for me... On paper many there are some guesses about who will go through to the next round. Normal lah... But that was on paper... On the Stage, it was a different story, different playground. Some 'good' singer will fail very badly during their real performance, and the dark horses will shine, although there are dark... wakakakaka...


From top (L-R) - NARISH, MELCHELL, FERADI, DAVID, BOBBY, SUZINNA, SHIRLEY, RAYNER, RAYMOND.

No Picture: ALFRED, VELARRY, SUSANA, BOBBY MATIUS.

For this heat, only 3 girls vying for two places in the final. Will we see another all man finalist from heat 5? Will it be another shock results? Who are those 13 will join DEFFNY, CARREY, JISIUS, MARLENNEY, HARY, GEORGIA, BERNARD & ELTON in the final? We'll see on the final heat this Saturday...

As for this event so far, i am very satisfied with this event. I've seen a lot of talented singer who really do their best. They perform with all their heart and this show that they have the desire to do and try to get the best out of them. I've also seen god singer get the boot out in a shocking way... Well, it's really is the thoughest singing competition. Don't want to say lah who and which heat lah... Every heat for me has their own strength and weakness... So in this next heat, i would really expect all the contestant gives their best. This is your chances to be the final 2 contestant to reach the final... So All the best to all of you!!! i'll see you on Saturday, but i only see 2 of you on the final...

Nda sia sedar heat 5 sudah... MAcam baru sia brief all the contestant yang registration day... 31st January 2009. No mo end of March uda... again, how time fly... wekekekeke... So sila-sila lah datang untuk bagi sokongan kepada acara ini... We could see a star in the making... FOR SURE!!!
Bah... enjoy Thursday kamu!!! Yiiiha!!!

Bukan tajuk untuk poem terbaru, bukan juga tajuk baru lagu... wekekekeke... Actually i don't have any idea for the title of my post. Even worst i don't have any idea of what am i am going to write today... Hmmm...

Belum sampai satu bulan sia kana transfer pigi sini SCC Alamesra Client Centre. Makin hari-makin ramai yang datang and berurusan sini. So, i'm calling to those who working and residing around Alamesra and it's surrounding area to come to our Alamesra Client Centre. Especially those yang ada urusan pinjaman dengan kamirang. Sinang, dekat, nda susah cari parking... Tapi i thing yang sia rasa nda siok is dia pinya food price... Snake Plate pinya price (for Regular nasi campur). Wekekekeke... So please come here if you are sooo lazy to drive to our HQ at Penampang. Oh, you may also make your payment here at Sabah Credit Alamesra CC.

Oh, Satu lai pula... kalau mo pigi 1 Borneo, terpaksa mo seberang jalan raya dengan gaya 100 meter. In my view, i think they should build a flyover for people to cross from Alamesra to 1Borneo. Much more easy. Takan mo tunggu ada urang kana langgar dulu baru mo bertindak kan...? Daripada guna tu duit untuk benda-benda yang nda bagi faedah kepada smua urang, i mean everybody, i think better you people invest untuk kegunaan bersama. Bukan satu saja urang yang cross that road everyday... Ramai bah... If i spent my time walk and count the people who crossed the road to Alamesra, maybe i can get over 100 a day... Tapi nda lah sia mo buat karaja bodo macam tu... buang masa saja... Wakakakaka

Okay. Now about KaDuS Entertainment Website (www.kadusmusic.com). We've been having technical problem recently, not due to us, but from the server itself. I am sorry to make you register again. I know it is Sucks to do it over and over again. I've been informed by by two other co-founder that they are trying very hard to rescue all the user database... Well, i might no nothing about all this database things but i'm sure, it is going to be so hard for them to do so... Be patience. We (KE Admins) are not going to make your life hard... We want to make sure your stay at KE Website is much easier and much fun... But due to this people (or maybe group of people) tlampau gatal tangan mo inject urang pinya file with Virus or whatever, we have to clean a lot of file inside it. So far, the user DB is not infected. Eh apa sia cakap nie...

Oh, i want to say a BIG SORRY To all the audience who come and witness the First KE Next Top Entertainer first Heat. I wrongly announce the Winner. Mimang kanaKutuk-kutuk lah sia... tapi Sia manusia saja bah... Bukan Perfect. Prone to make mistake... LAi pun 1st show mimang nervous. Won't blame anybody lah... it will happen when we less expect it. So Again A Big Sorry... Oh, congrats to Carrey Oliver and Deffny Pearl Tanggar for making it to the Final.

Apa lai ha...? oh...

Phew... Today is the fifth days i'm at SCC Newest Client Centre, at Alamesra. Yes... Alamesra, not Alam Mesra or Mesra Alam. It should be pronounce as ALA-MESRA. The place is not so Mesra alam if you ask me... But it is the best place to study. Macam tenang saja bah... cuma bisinglah when all the car limpas sana sini... Bah, In front of our office is the the main highway... Then depan dia lagi is 1 Borneo. So mimang banyak kereta lah. Well, the main important things is, i manage to stay focus there. So only a few hours left before i end my first week at Alamesra and i am happy for it.



Not much trouble for me to go and work there actually as i have been working for few months in Tuaran before. Much far than AM. Futhermore, sia tumpang kawan so it make people like me much easier to get there. Makasi ya... I was actually planning to get myself a car this coming July or August but being transfered here so sudden make me wanna get a car ASAP.Sampai bila juga my friend mo kasi tumpang sia...? mana tau dia ada problem that day kan... so bagus sediakan payung sebelum ujan... or in my case, sediakan perahu sebelum banjir... kalau banjir susah because i don't know how to swim... Berenang anjing pandai lah. Wakakakaka...

Working at Alamesra CC was a big headache for me, especially on the first day. FYI, i was transferred from IT Section so you might wonder what the hell is IT person doing at CC. Then i remember ou Datuk GM word, to make all the warga SCC Multitasking. I said to my self... This could be good. Learning new things... Hmmm... It was proven. I actually know nothing on a loan process, how it was done, and so forth. Seeing it at HQ, i thought it was easy... It was really hard! So i have to learn from the very beggining. yalah... macam budak, nampak men bubut (lari) senang saja... larilari, tapi kalau nda tau apa tujuan dia mo lari-lari tu, teda point juga.,... nanti kana cakap gila pula... My staff frontpage also has been added with the feature of loan processing. Whoa... banyak lai pula yang sia nda tau nie... I was like myself 14 months ago when i was still a trainee at SCC. Budak hingusan, now nothing, tanya saja balik-balik... wekekek ... Tapi tulah nama dia process belajar bah kan... wakakakaka. Kalau nda bertanya, nda tau apa-apa... Malu mo tanya sesat jalan... sekali tiguk tejalan kaki sampai Tamparuli uda... wakakaka... Tamparuli? hmmm

Being at the client centre i have to face and serve the customer almost everyday. Berbeza dengan IT section, i only serve our own staff. Rarely i meet with customer. Kalau kawan or sodara jadi customer tu lain cerita lah... wekekekeke...
Not having a good PR, i guess this is a very good way for me to practise it. Yalah, nowadays i'm dealing with a lot people from every rank for KaDuS Entertainment and it is very important that i have a good PR skills. Tapi the problem is, my English is not so good, and my BM is Sabahan BM which make people hard to understand what i say. Hahahahaha. Practise make perfect. I'm dealing with customer on daily basis here at SCC AM as my main task is to learn and (still) to make sure the IT insfrastucture is in good order.



I don't know how long i will be place in Sabah Credit 'Model Branch' is. But the good thing is, i am starting to enjoy my life here. It will be not long before i start doing all the processing of loan by myself... i can see it... This placement of staff at AM is on rotation basis, and we are the first batch who merasmikan this cawangan. Actually i was not in the list of staff who will be transferred here bah...
Only got this news last Friday, when my section head called me to his room and told me that i will be transferred to AM CC effectively on Monday. Punya lah... I was also told that our GM hand-picked me to go there... Why? i don't have any idea...Maybe because i will be the model for multitasking job in SCC? i just don't know. Kali sia yang paling kurus dan nda hensem di HQ. Wakakakaka...

Okaylah... Today is Friday and i already have plan for tonight. I'm having a dinner with my 'MUM'. Hehehe... Don't ask why the word mum ada ' '. Wekekekeke. Saturday is for me to rest. Same goes with sunday. I've been waking soo very early this past week, and i was thinking mo balas balik masa tidur sai. Mo kasi seimbang gia... So... Take care...

I’ve been getting a lot of phone call regarding the KE Next Top Entertainer singing competition since it was made public last December. Thank you for the interest and it is really good to see there are a lot of people who are aware of the entertainment industry in Sabah. The effort for you to call and enquiry is much appreciated. We will try our best to answer your question until the registration dateline, which is on the 30^th January 2009. Those confirmed participants will have a chance to ask more on the briefing day, scheduled on the 31st January 2009.

Nowadays I’ve been very busy with the implementation of computer system at our new Client Centre at Alamesra. So please do understand that if I don’t answer your phone call or even SMSes, I am not ignoring you. I will try to get back to you as soon as possible… but if you want a fast answer or explanation, do call the other number. They too can help you with your question.

Okay… Before you go on and call me I would like to include some FAQ (Frequently Asked Question) so that you would have some basic ideas of what KE NTE is all about.

Q: What is KE NTE (KaDuS Entertainment Next Top Entertainer)?

A: KE NTE is a singing competition organised, first time by KaDuS Entertainment. It is just the same as the other singing competition only that KE NTE will emphasise more on NEW and FRESH talent. I am sure there are a lot of them out there just waiting to unearth their wonderful singing talent.

Q: Define NEW & FRESH

A: Those who never produced an Album (be it solo or group), recorded a single, got an airplay from local radio station (that does include Suria Pagi Kinabalu). To too must NEVER won any major STATE or NATIONAL Level competition (example: Sugandoi Kaamatan Peringkat Negeri Sabah, Bintang RTM Negeri Sabah etc). We want does who are not bound by any Contract from any recording company in Sabah or anywhere in Malaysia. You must not be contracted to any talent Manager.

Q: Is there any Entrance FEE?

A: Off course. Nowadays, there is no free lunch in the world, except that your friend says, Mari sia belanja ko makan tengahari. But Everywhere you go you must pay… even entering the public toilet. So fee is RM50 only.

Q: We can I get the entry form?

A: The entry form is available from various locations. Starting with New Pusakag Café. You may also obtain the form at Chempaka Square, Ace Club, Bukit Padang and Ligo Music Centre at CKS Penampang, Inanam and Centre Point, KK. Lastly, you can always download the form at KaDuS Entertainment Website’s at www.kadusmusic.com

Q: After filling the form, where can I send it? May I email it to you?

A: We actually asked all the contestant bring the form on the registration day, but due to the overwhelming response we get form the public, it is best to call us and arrange a meeting to send the form. To book your place (for those yang betul-betul confirmed) we will asked you to deposit the Entrance fee to us. Please call to get the account information. Outstation? No problem, just fax us the form and deposit the money into our account. This is an assurance that you will not come and become mad at us when you found out that all the 60 places has been filled and you come from outstation. This is a First Come First Serve Basis.

Please don’t email the form to us, as we need your signature that you will adhere to all the rules and regulations. Also we need the parents to sign if the contestant is below 18 years old.

Q: I’ve decided to pull out and I want my money back. Can I do that?

A: UPDATE!!! You are allowed to pull out but your registration fee will not be returned. I'm sorry, something confused me yesterday... Teringat other competition yang pernah sia ikut nie... wekekekeke... Sorry... Sorry

Q: What should I prepare on the registration day?

A: Just prepare your self. Make your self available. For those who haven’t sent the 3R or 4R size photograph you are required to do so. Although we would have a photography session on the entire contestant, we still need your own photograph. Those who haven’t pay the registration fee, please do so on that day. This is for those who have confirmed their participation.

Q: Can I choose any songs?

A: You may choose up to two songs. You are required to sing both songs on the heat day. The selection of songs will be freely done by you. Please remember that the compulsory songs must be in KadazanDusun. You are free to choose the second song but it must be in Malay or English only.

Q: What type of song I can choose?

A: As I said earlier, you are free to choose any song. But I would like to emphasis on this. Although this might be my personal opinion, I would be grateful if you could sing a ‘clean’ song. What I mean by ‘clean’ is songs that don’t contain any sensitive issues, or yang ada sindiran-sindiran padas. Also no foul language. The compulsory song of KadazanDusun should be in neat. Don’t select songs that add language other then KadazanDusun. As much as you like to sing it and you sing it well, we still want to promote our language to the higher level through songs! We can do this together.

Q: Do I have to prepare my own music?

A: Yes, you have too. This is to ensure that there will be no problem arises if you use our CD and the CD malfunctions. You will blame me if these things happen and I don’t want that. So prepare your own Minus One. Especially the Local pinya. Dalam masa yang sama kamu kasi tinguk juga yang kamu support our local music industry if you buy the CD. Betul tidak.

Q: Berapa ramai sudah yang hantar borang?

A: Ignore those yang hantar boring. If you are really interested to enter this competition, you won’t bother about the amount of participants we received. But to kasi puas hati kamurang… we have received more than half, maybe closed to forty forms. So capat-capatlah hantar borang.

Huh… so far this is the most FAQ I got, either via SMS or Call. You can always call us to asked more. There’s still time for you to enter this. There is no harm entering this… Mana tau you are the one we are looking for. The one who will become The Next Top Entertainer not only for KaDuS Entertainment but also Sabah (mana tau lagi for Malaysia)

This is the first steps to stardom. You might not win but you may get noticed by people out there.

July – Nothing Interesting Noted

Nothing much. Only one thing good enough to talk is about the operation to flush illegal immigrant that has been residing here in Sabah for ages. It is a big scale operation, according to the statement released by the government. Banner about the operation is out and radio deejay is actively reminding people to always bring along their documents. Whoa!!!

But seriously is there any update on that? I always read the newspaper about it, but what really disappoints me is the story about the operation is only in small portions. Front page is filled with political matters. I want to be that, he should become this and I should be on that post. I don’t know whether the newspaper guys more interested to publish the political matter rather than update on what has been happening about the operations? I don’t know other places, but what I know is, I only seen one operation here in town. Don’t remember when, but there is…

The political matter maybe important (for some people lah mangkali), but what about the promises you (politician) made to the rakyat about flushing the illegal out of Sabah? Have you done it? Have you really Flush Em’ All? Oh you just interested to report about you gaining this postion in you respective party???

August – Bali Vacation

Funny to tell, but this is my first trip outside the country. This is a trip organized by our organization to our staff. We are divided into 5 groups and the first three groups have gone to Bandung and Medan, Indonesia earlier this year. We’ve made a unanimous decision to go to Bali. It’ good actually as I always want to go to Bali. Although there is a history of terrorist attack way back in 2002 (reffering to the Bali Bombing), the travel agent has assured us that the security in Bali is really tight nowadays. Proven to be very-very truth. Everywhere we goes, there is at least two securities personal on standby. There’s also CCTV everywhere. The security personal outnumbered the policeman/woman on duty in Bali. That does explain why I didn’t see many policeman/woman on duty there.

We went on to visit the silver manufacturing place, wood carving and a temple which is located on the beach. In fact, there is a lot of temple in Bali as the main religion of Balinese is Hinduism. I only found 1 mosque and a Christian cemetery so far at Bali. Our hotel is one of the grandest i ever stay. It is the Hard Rock Hotel, Bali. Just in front of it is the Kuta Beach, famous for surfing! Yeah!!!

Bali is truly a shop-tertainment heaven. The stuff to buy is cheap and if you are good at the skill of ‘tawar menawar’, you may get the best price ever.

September – …

One week after come back from Bali, my mum woke me up to tell my grandfather is unconscious. Went on to check on him, I presumed he was gone. That was the most shocking thing happened as the night before, he was very active, saying he want to go to town tomorrow. He was happy… Hmmm… I rather not write more about this, as its really break my heart… May his soul rest in Peace…

October – KE Star Studded Nite Party

KaDuS Entertainment™ yearly gathering has a new name, a new theme… No more to be called Annual gath, but from now on it will be called KE Party. Everybody is a star at that night. Having a problem actually to find a costume that match with that but, luckily on the very last minute, I found it. Hehe…

Oh, My Team finished 2^nd in the Man & Women Futsal Tournament organized by the Ministry Of Finance, Sabah. FYI, Sabah Credit is a statutory body under the state government and we are under the MOF. Our tem (Men’s Team) losing 3-1 in the Final against Warisan Harta where’s one of their player is a friend of mine and another blogger, Gidong.

November – My Favorite Month

Yes… November, I love this month… It is my favorite month. Dunno why, but must be because my birthday is in November and my favorite number happens to be 11.

This is the month I started to get people attention unintentionally. I was asked by the Sabah Computer Societies to give talks about blogging at one of their event. Not being the best blogger around and lack of experience (3 years only), I just give the audiences the basic things about blogging. Didn’t know there’s a reporter from local daily to cover the event, I continue on giving my talks. The reporter took some picture of me and went off. Few days later, my pic is out on the newspaper. Some office colleague congratulate me, some started blogging themselves. I’ve also received few phone call from clubs and societies to give talks about blogging. Hmm… I can see the importance of blogging as a lot of people wanted to know more. I guess it is because of the aftermath the March GE.

We (SCC Futsal Team) again participate in another Futsal Tournament. This time a tournaments for Statutory Bodies. Futsal is one of the sport event under the Sabah Statutory Bodies Sports. But sadly we didn’t past the quarter-final as we were defeated by SEDCO Team. Manage to score one goal, but that's it. We were out! But i enjoyed playing in that tournarments, especially when the player you are playing against is much more better and skillful. How about former state (Sabah) player???

December - Holiday Mood

Much more event organised this month. starting with the Anugerah PERTISA. Read my 'honest' comment about it HERE. This event meant to acknowledge the most popular artist in Sabah and their works...

Then there is the O2C's Red Is Glam Party (RiGP, finally get it right this time). A Charity event for KASIH, the KK Aids Support Services. Brilliant event.

Pastu i was involved in our Christmas Decoration judging where i act as one of the shepherds... in our case... jajal shepherds... Wekekekeke...

Get drunk here and there... tapi nda lah sampai nakalapik nda ingat dunia... wowowowowow

KaDuS Bilang:
Whoa! Done!!! Started New Year 2008 with happy, end it with happy Also! I like it... Throughout 2008, i've wore Warrior costume, Chinese shirts, baju selangor, cowboy costume, baju tradisi Suluk, Shepherds and of course the Kadazan traditional costume. Wekekekeke... I am happy in 2008. That what make me sad. Now, it's been three days since i left 2008 behind, i still feel like... macam baru kemarin sia pakai baju cowboy and menari tarian Suluk. Wekekekeke.

"I go foward leaving all the memories behind. Some i would cherish forever, some better left behind. Truly wonderful years, happiness come and goes with sadness, good comes with bad... Can I ask for more? Thank You God for all the great things You give upon me"

Uish... sia merapu sudah (webber pinjam ayat ko ah). Wakakaka.. Okay.... Take Care Everybody!!!

I actually don’t want to write about this but I feel that I am free to give my comments on what’s happening in and around Sabah. So please (whoever you are) don’t say I am harshly criticizing you as me myself want to see our local music industry is on the very highest of quality! Yah, I’m referring to the PERTISA Award, held on 6th December 2008 at the KDCA Hall.

First, a big hand of applause for coming up with this event. I think the time has come for our entertainment industry to have this kind of award show. We have gone far from that old ukulele sound to the more sophisticated kind of music equipments. Emmm… I still love that ukulele sound though! Well, this is the second time that PERTISA organized the award show. I didn’t attend the first one (which also held at KDCA way back in 2004) for a reason that I already forgot. Hehehehe. So can’t make a benchmark on the improvement or decline in quality of organizing this event. This is the first time I attend the Award show where I was appointed as an official photographer. Hmmm… Asal event KDCA, kalau involves misti photographer… Wakakaka… Well I like it… at least I will know what to do, instead of sitting there doing foolish things… Wakakakaka

The event held was ‘buli lah’ in my point of view. Maybe I was used to take photograph in a larger scale of event and in a very sophisticated (twice uda used this word) environment. Better more, I’ve once involved in organizing a Mega Concert which proved to be very-very though. So maybe juga my expectation is too high for this event. Tapi nda lah sia expect yang sampai macam American Grammy Award (AMA) or Anugerah Industri Muzik (AIM) gitu. But at least doing it to be just like those awards show (AMA, AIM) pun okay sudah lah.

I’ve notice few things lah. Maybe people will disagree with me, but this is my view only. First, is the audio quality and the lighting. Really not up to what I’ve been expecting for an event of this scale. Come on lah... Others maybe okay, but my mood of taking picture really ruined by both the audio and the lighting. I’m confused with the lighting. Maybe because I am not so ‘pro’ in taking picture, I might don’t know the right setting for the camera. I admit most of my photo quality is not good. Not even good to publish it here. So that is my fault lah… maybe… But what about the audio? I know it’s hard to get a good audio quality inside a hall, except if you record it directly from the mixer it self… Maybe lah… Tapi for me, the audio was… adeh… apa macam mo cakap ah? Senang cakap, bikin sakit telinga sia mo dengar. Make me feels dizzy! Much dizzier than reading books… wakakakaka…

As I said earlier, my expectation for the awards show might be a bit high than what I’ve seen that night. I was actually hoping that there will be a place at the backstage where the winner of any given award will pose with their winning trophy. Sadly there were no such things. I went to the backstage to find the artist as it would be great if I could take their picture with their trophy. What I found was a group of dancers getting ready for their next performance. Where were the artists?

They (the organizer) did charge an entrance fee for those who didn’t want to be in the dinner table. I was told that the entrance fee was RM3 per person. It was announced on a Radio station too. So I told a few friends to come and witness this event. Suddenly they sms me and said that I am a liar. I was shocked… I asked them why do they say that to me… They answered that the ticket price for the gallery seating was not RM3 but RM10! Whoa!!! How come the ticket price could increase so sudden? Just like the harga minyak… Tiba-tiba naik… tapi pandai turun pula… not like the ticketlah… where some people has to fork out extra RM7 just to give support to this event… Duit juga bah tu… pikir senang kah mo cari RM7?

I don’t want to talk about the results lah. Since the awards recipients is decided by voting, so it is the voters right to vote who they think is the most popular. They will choose from a list of candidate, and pick their choice. Just like the elections lah.

But sadly, in one week, I’ve been listening to talks from people in and around KK saying that the result is somehow funny. They thinks, It (the result) didn’t give the ‘right’ picture on who is the most popular in the state. But again, it is the voter’s rights. They can choose whoever they like to win this or that’s awards. I definitely don’t blame the winner or the organizer. Hence, no one should be in the firing line for this. If the organizer decides that they want to use this method of voting, it’s their rights!

"Is Era FM to be blamed? Rich and Estranged won an Award of which the result was decided by online voting."

Then, timbul pula the most interesting talks about individual who win it by bulk voting. What I mean is, say I was one of the candidates and I buy a lot of voting sheet to vote for myself. Seriously, is there any wrong in that? The title is The Most Popular… POPULAR! Hello! I want to be popular, so I have to do anything and everything in my power to get myself noticed by the public or in other word: POPULAR! Even if I have to sacrifice a lot of money to do that, I will do it. So I guess there is no problem is this individual win this or that award via own bulk voting. The voting form did not state that only one vote from any person… It is an anonymous vote.

One of the most sensitive things that have been ringing through people mind was the result. It is pure, honest, and transparent results? Whoahahahaha… I am not in a good position to comment on this. So I won’t comment any of this. What I can see is the working committee has been working hard to count all the votes that comes, took them days to complete the voting. I was actually asked by one of the committee member to help on the votes counting process, but due to my position in KaDuS Entertainment™ and other commitments, I have to decline it.
So if there is any inquiry about this, don’t ask me! Ask the main organizer. Hehehehe…

Overall, I’m quite satisfied lah… As I said before… Buli Lah… It can be improved in the future. To all the PERTISA members, keep up the good works… I and KaDuS Entertainment™ will supports you people, as what we’ve been doing for the past few months. Critics do come. So view it in a positive and constructive ways. Don’t take all critics as negative, it won’t help you. It will ruin you in a long run. I’ve read and love the comments made by Mr. Ambrose Mudi at his blog, http://yangkalamai.blogspot.com. He even comes up with ideas and ways to improve PERTISA. Also a blog from a friend of mine, who happen to be a local Artist and also PERTISA members, Guadik Ansiw. He can be found on his blogsite at, http://adex-gamusic.blogspot.com. See, there’s a lot of thinker in and around our local music industry. Even in PERTISA itself.

KaDuS Bilang:
Bah, If anybody feels hurts by what I wrotes here, I’m sorry, but for me I am just expressing views from my head. As I said earlier, seeing our local entertainment industries grows in my main priority. That’s why I started KaDuS Entertainment™ way back in 2005. So don’t think we are a threat. Sama-sama lah bah kan… Again… Sorry, Siou, Tui Pu Chi and apa-apa bahasalah kalau ada yang tersinggung dengan post nie… To all the winners and award recipients, congratulations. Enjoy…
