Malang Hujan Tak Jadi

-
Pengkalan awan mula berkepul
Seperti ada tanda ia akan pecah
Semakin kelam warna gumpalnya
Harap-harap cepat memburai perutnya
Resah melihat hamparan tempat berdiri
…kian gersang dan merekah sana sini.

Pengkalan awan berarak pergi
Rimas mula bertukar cemas
Kecewa gamaknya melihat awan pecah
Walhal puncak gunung sering mencucuk awan
Gelisah melihat langit tempat berteduh
…kian terang dan membahang semula

Pengkalan awan hilang di pandangan mata
Cemas akhirnya menjadi lemas
Kempunan hujan lagi tak jadi
Ujian kembali setelah rahmat pergi
Bingung melihat kebun dan sungai tempat bernaung
…kian layu dan lesu sedih menanggung

SEJARAH KEMERDEKAAN SABAH

-
Sabah yang dahulunya pernah dikenali sebagai North Borneo telah mencapai kemerdekaan daripada British melalui penubuhan persekutuan Malaysia pada 16 September 1963 yang diilhamkan oleh Yang Teramat Mulia Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj selaku Perdana Menteri Tanah Melayu. Berdasarkan kepada sumber-sumber sejarah menunjukkan bahawa Sabah pada asalnya merupakan jajahan Kesultanan Brunei. Walau bagaimanapun, pada tahun 1704, sebahagian besar wilayahnya di pantai timur dan utara telah dihadiahkan kepada Kesultanan Sulu sebagai balasan kerana membantu sultan Brunei menewaskan seterunya di Pulau Cermin.

Pada tahun 1881, Sabah secara rasminya telah ditadbir oleh BNBCC dan dijadikan negeri naungan kerajaan British pada tahun 1888. Dalam erti kata lain,

THE ESSENCE OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION

-
Can you imagine how life is going to be, if there is no standard and accepted forms of communication? The immediate situation that I can visualize is the chaotic event of ordinary life. People will eventually see what others are doing are for their mutual benefit. Everything seems to be for individual interest only. Most of the time people engage in surface acting behavior and there is a tendency of social loafing in group activities. In short, people actually don’t care on good interpersonal communication. In addition to that, there is an absence of the quality of work life found in any organization. Off course, nobody wants this scenario to happen in his or her life. In order to improve the quality of work life, we need to understand and establish proper communication process. The communication process involves steps between a source and a receiver that result in the transference and understanding of meaning. The sender initiates message by encoding it through the right channel. Th

Matching Structure with Environment

-
To understand what organization structure is all about, we need to study the composition of the body of an organization itself. Basically, it is a hierarchical concept of subordination of entities that collaborate to ensure the success of the common goal. The structure is best depicted using organizational chart in which allocation of responsibilities have been assigned to respected individual or departments. The established and solid structure can only be determined if consideration is given on the purpose of the organization establishment and the environment that governs the organization. There are four determinants of an organization’s structure; namely, strategy, size, technology and environment. Each determinant plays a decisive factor on what type of structure is going to be formed by an organization. The term strategy deals with the mechanism on achieving the objective of the organization. Structure must follow the strategy. Innovation which can be depicted as organic model,
