THE PEOPLE OR POWER?

 A POLITICAL GOALS


The year 2020 is coming to an end. Various stories have been recorded. Among the most striking, of course, the Pandemic outbreak that affected the global economy and caused the deaths of millions of lives. However, it does not affect world politics at all.

When it comes to politics, I often ask myself. Are those who join this political world, aiming to help the people or gain the power they will have ?. I personally see that most of those who join politics are aiming for the power they will have. The people hope that every political leader who before gaining power, promises various things but in the end the promise is given a lie.

Have we ever met a successful politician, living in poverty ?. Arguably, almost 100% of successful politicians live in very comfortable conditions compared to the people. Something strange when I think back, but it may be commonplace in today's political world.

The situation of politicians is almost the same all over the world. They live very comfortably compared to ordinary people. If we read the history of the previous Islamic leaders, we will know that the former Muslim leaders, lived in poverty even though they were leaders. Why ?, they are involved in politics in order to help people, not for the sake of power.

It is said that the story of an Islamic leader, Caliph Umar, who every night, would patrol alone to see the condition of his people. He arrived at a tent where the voices of small children were heard crying. When greeted, a woman came out, then Caliph Umar asked why the little boy was crying. Apparently the girls involved were hungry and in the women's tent there was nothing to eat. Hearing the matter, Caliph Umar rushed to Baitulmal to take wheat flour from the storage place to be handed over to the woman involved. Without knowing that the man who gave the wheat flour was the leader of the country, the woman thanked and hoped that her leader would behave like caliph umar.

The fact that we should be aware that everyone is capable of saying will be the best leader before being elected. But once they have power, 80% of leaders will change because of the temptation in front of their eyes when they legally become leaders and have power. At the same time, leaders know that the burden that a leader must bear later will be very heavy in the 'padang masyar' later. But still want it, the human heart is easily changed, here is also 'Faith' in the heart and soul.

Words and deeds are different things. Everyone is able to speak, but not everyone is able to do what is said. Sincere political leaders will not ask for power, simply fulfilling what the common people demand. While the people are now able to assess who is the best to be elected as their leader later.

The effects of the pandemic are now being felt by the entire population of the world. Not only test for ordinary people but also for the country's leaders. Are their actions for the people or for power ?, we ourselves can easily judge them.

Pengalaman menjadi Guru

Setiap dari kita pasti bertemu seorang insan bernama 'Cikgu'. Insan yang memainkan peranan penting dalam mendidik kita selain dari ibubapa di rumah.  Dari dahulu lagi, orang sering ibaratkan menjadi guru ini seperti menjadi sebatang lilin yang membakar diri demi menerangi jiwa dan hati anak bangsa. Aku ingin berkongsi sedikit pengalaman menjadi seorang cikgu. Pengalaman yang tidak pernah terjangka di minda aku. Pernah memohon menjadi guru lepasan DPLI atau KPLI tapi semua permohonan aku gagal termasuk temuduga yang turut keputusannya mendukacitakan aku. Kisah aku menjadi guru bermula apabila tamat kontrak sebagai tele-marketing sebuah Kolej Swasta di Kota Bharu.Ketika itu, aku menghantar resume ke semua organisasi yang difikirkan sesuai termasuk sekolah swasta.  Dijadikan cerita, pada suatu hari aku menerima panggilan temuduga dari salah satu Sekolah Swasta di Kota Bharu. Sekolah tersebut dikatakan merupakan sekolah yang terkenal sejak dari dahulu lagi. Sekolah tersebut ba

Walaupun telah lama aku tinggalkan Universiti Malaya, terutama Jabatan Pengajian Media, masih ada kenangan yang terpahat dalam ingatan. Pelbagai kisah tidak tercatat tetapi di coret dalam kamus hidup aku. Setelah melaporkan diri di Kolej Kediaman Ke-7, aku mempunyai tempoh 1-2 minggu untuk menentukan Subjek Major & Minor bagi melengkapkan Ijazah Sarjan Muda nanti.   Pada mulanya aku berminat pada Pengajian Hubungan Antarabangsa & Strategik sebagai subjek major.  Namun pada hari pertama masuk kelas pengenalan, lecture terus bagi assignment yang lebih fokus kepada undang-undang antarabangsa, membuatkan aku terasa takut sangat dengan beban bakal aku pikul nanti. Lagipun aku bukan dalam kategori pelajar pintar seperti orang lain. Seterusnya aku mencuba Jabatan Pengajian Media, abang aku merupakan mantan pelajar Jabatan ini, maka aku pernah mendapat pendedahan berkenaan hala tuju graduan Jabatan Pengajian Media nanti.  Bagi pelajar-pelajar yang ingin mendapatkan Jabatan pilihan mere

BAGAIMANA MENJADI TELEMARKETING?

-
Aku ingin kongsi pengalaman bekerja sebagai Telemarketing bagi sebuah Institusi Pendidikan di bandar Kota Bharu, seingat aku sekitar tahun 2008. Walaupun bekerja atas nama status kontrak, ia memberi pengalaman baru kepada aku, secara peribadi.Maklumlah budak pengajian media dari Universiti Malaya tiba-tiba jadi budak marketing. Apabila aku tamat latihan "on job training" di sebuah GLC yang base di Airports Subang pada tahun 2007. Aku mengambil keputusan balik kampung untuk menjaga ibu yang kini tinggal seorang setelah kematian abah. Aku mengambil inisiatif menghantar resume ke seluruh institusi atau organisasi yang dirasakan sesuai di sekitar Kota Bharu pada awal tahun 2008. Salah sebuah organisasi yang aku hantar permohonan terbuka telah menghubungi aku untuk hadir ke sesi temuduga yang aku tidak mengetahui apa jawatannya. Proses temuduga berjalan lancar, alhamdulillah aku berjaya dalam temuduga tersebut dan aku mula melaporkan diri sebagai Tele-Marketing bagi organisasi
