On the 25th of June 2008, I am officially an uncle. :-)




My sister gave birth to a baby boy, Amirul Shafwan bin Syuhairi. The meaning of the name is 'Pemimpin yang Ikhlas', cewah... Amin~

Tak jemu-jemu tengok muka dia. :-) Saya dah ada obsesi baru...

Jadi cuma saya nak beritau kat blog...

"Saya tak sihat hari ni, janganlah risau, saya dah makan ubat..."

How you can save petrol?

Semalam naikkan minyak, hari ni bagi rebat, esok turunkan cukai, then nak bagi gaji 2 kali sebulan? Macam-macamlah, daripada bagi semua bende-bende tu, kenapa tak naikkan sikit je harga minyak? Sama jugak kan? Naik minyak, pastu bagi macam-macam. Sekarang, akibatnya semua harga barang dah naik. Terima kasih Paklah~

Rasa macam semakin hari semakin mengarut je yang jadi kat negara nih.

Neway, berapa-berapa harga minyak sekali pun, we still need to use jugak kan? So, how actually you can save petrol? Here are some tips that I found from newspapers, and on the net as well.

1. Drive smoothly. Aggresive driving can use as much as a third more fuel than safe driving. Avoid accelerating or braking too hard and try to keep you steering as smooth as possible. This actually works, dah pernah try... [Selamat tinggal Jaffrey Schumacher... sob]

2. Use higher gear, the higher gear you drive in, the lower engine speed is, which can improve fuel efficiency. So, change up a gear whenever you can without labouring the engine. Ada paham? [Maybe next time, keluar rumah, terus masuk gear 5, arasso?]

3. Tune and service your engine. A well tuned engine can improve fuel economy by up to 4%, so change your oil and follow your car manufacturer's recommendation on servicing.

4. Keep your tyres at the right pressure. Tyres under-inflated by just 1psi can reduce fuel efficiency by as much as 3%. An under or over-inflated tyre is also more susceptible on failing.

5. Avoid carrying excess weight. For every extra 45kg you carry, your fuel efficiency drop by 1 to 2%. So keep your boot or back seat clear of unnecessary items that just add weight to your vehicle. [Kalau ada member yang dok bising-bising at the back seat, bukak tingkap baling dia keluar... haha~]

6. Keep the windows closed. Wind blowing through an open window will slow you down. To compensate, you may put yout fut down harder, using more fuel. [Letak gam kat tingkap lepas ni]...

7. Use the correct oil. Always use the recommended grade of motor oil. Using the manufacturer's recommended lubricant can improve fuel efficiency by 1 to 2%. Higher quality motor oils can also hel your engine operate more efficiently. [Janganlah gune diesel untuk membawa kancil atau waja, harap maklum]

8. Cruise control on major roads helps you maintain a constant speed, and many cases, will improve fuel consumption.

9. Avoid excess idling, idling gets you nowhere but still burns fuel. Turn the engine off when you are in a queue or waiting for someone until you need it.

So, maybe with these tips will help us in saving petrol. :-)

Minyak oh Minyak...


As we all know, the petrol price in Malaysia has gone up up and away from RM1.92 to RM2.70. Yay! Well done!
Well, I truly understand why the government increased the price almost 40% as it reaches $138 setong. And that is too much to take. Lagipun, until when the people should be dependent on the subsidy given. I think we have to learn to get into reality.
Tapi kasihan juga kepada mereka yang berpendapatan sederhana dan rendah. And also those who lives in Sabah and Sarawak. If we're comparing ourself with Singaporeans or Brunei's on the price of petrol, for sure kita lagi rendah, but we should never forget to compare on the salary and wage that they get, is far higher that we have here. So how could that be fair?
Ok, forget about the price. What I am not satisfied mainly is on the announcement of the price. Remember that, early this year Pak Lah gave his words, that if there is any increment on the price of petrol, the government will anounce it earlier so that the people will get ready and prepared by the time. Tapi tengok-tengok, after one meeting with the cabinet, they increased the price the next day after it. Sengal tak? Mana lah tak jem satu Malaysia...
And if the governement wanted so badly to increase it to 78 cents, fine, but get it done smoothtly, sikit-sikit laa naik, maybe 20cents, then another 20cents, takde laa terkejut sampai macam ni. Dah laa terkejut satu hari dah ada announcement esok naik harga, terkejut lagi naik 78sen. Boleh sakit jantung tau macam ni. Patut laa hayat hidup manusia kat Malaysia makin rendah... Isk isk isk. [sigh]
Neway, congratulation Pak Lah. Your surprise sangatlah menjadi... Lain kali pasang belon banyak-banyak, pukul 12 jerit dalam TV, "MINYAK NAIK HARGA LAGI!!!"....
p.s. It's easy to lose a trust, but difficult to regain it back...
