#Cooking Contest #Nasi Briyani

On last Sunday, we members at World Deaf Mission Center at Puchong were having the cooking contest. The contest is Nasi Briyani.

Nasi Briyani is a rice-based dish made with spices, rice(usually basmati) and chicken, mutton, fish, eggs or vegetables. The name is derived from Persian word which means 'fried' or 'roasted'. 

Briyani was believed to have been invented in the kitchen of the Muslim Mughal Emperors. It is very popular in South Asia and is a key element of the South Asian cuisine. Huderabad, Malabar, Delhi, Agra, Dhaka, Kashmir, Kolkata, Lucknow and Lahore, are the main centres of briyani cuisine. 

I joined Team B with brothers and sisters in Christ. What a wonderful contest I have experienced. After weeks by weeks finding the perfect Nasi Beriyani cooking in YouTube. and I ended up not so sure how to make it. Luckily the help of my brother in Christ, we all are able to progress the cooking Nasi Beriyani out well.

Now I know how to cook Nasi Beriyani. Hopefully I can cook for you someday :D

Breaking the Silence

 Plucked from The STAR online, Sept 19th 2013

PETALING JAYA: Imagine not being able to hear a thing while your teacher gives lessons to the rest of the class.

You strain to lip-read as you scribble down whatever is projected on the LCD screen.

To avoid lagging, you borrow your friends' notes and later consult your teacher about the lesson, using only a pen and paper to communicate.

This is what a typical day is like for a deaf university student.

Fakhrul Razzi, on his life as a University student

Fakhrul Razzi, 24, who has just completed a diploma in Business Management, shares the problems he faced as the only deaf student in his public university.

"Sometimes, lecturers teach without visual aids because it is an inconvenience to prepare the material. This means I have to approach my classmates for help or else I will be left behind," said Fakhrul.

The lack of basic infrastructure like LCD projectors in classrooms also hampers learning for the deaf.

Fakhrul, who mostly communicates with his classmates through writing, said interacting and socialising were among the hardest challenges he faced as a student.

"It is difficult to keep up with my friends who can hear but I take it in my stride," he said in relation to things that were lost in translation.

Fakhrul rarely uses the free sign-language interpreting service provided by the Malaysian Federation of the Deaf (MFD) because of the interpreter's travel costs that he has to bear and the availability of interpreters on short notice.

"Universities should strive to provide interpreters, or at least notes, LCD projectors and PowerPoint slides for disabled students," said Fakhrul, who one day hopes to open his own advertising and marketing company.

Even though deaf students are faced with many barriers, they can still overcome hurdles and do well in education.

"There are those who manage to be on the Dean's list. We also have two deaf students who are currently pursuing their Master's degree," said MFD president Mohamad Sazali Shaari.

The MFD also advocates for facilities for the deaf in universities.

"Ideally, there should be an availability of interpreters and facilities such as internet connections and video chat services for the deaf," Sazali added.

"There is a need for English interpreters as many classes are conducted in English," said Farhan Kamarzaman, 23, a deaf student currently pursuing his diploma in the Multimedia University.

When it comes to seeking higher education, the deaf are left in a dilemma.

"Sign language interpreters need to be at a higher level or on par with the deaf student. For example, a deaf PhD student requires an interpreter with similar qualifications.

"The interpreter needs to have proficiency of language and specific knowledge to interpret for conferences and research. It is hard to find someone suitable to fulfill this criteria," said Sazali.

Despite all obstacles, the deaf have come a long way in overcoming their disability.

"We have deaf individuals working both the public and private sectors. Many have good positions in their respective industries," says Sazali with a smile.

There this an another page to come in the StarOnline today. Surprising to know that more Deafs are interesting to keen on their studies to local Universities. I hope by this Breaking the Silence will help to promote Deaf Awareness publicly with the help of the Malaysian Federation of Deaf (MFD). By this way, the MFD should do more projects/ workshops to have the conduction to work with the Ministry of Education, Malaysia Government, local Government and Private University to provide the interpreter services and video chat online services for those Deafs are in need. The Deaf people who are interesting to take up some course to enrol a local university, they should make more awareness about Deafness publicly so they will give us space to have the respect equally by each other in class or everywhere.

Deafs should always seek the opportunity to meet their own criteria by asking the help from the MFD, the Ministry of Education to name a few in many ways to open up the road for their own benefits.

It is the time we change the world, our country Malaysia a better place to provide such services for the disable people, especially for the Deaf people.

Few Deaf students attending Malaysian universities

Mohamad Sazali Shaari, the President of Malaysian Federation of Deaf (MFD)

     Plucked from The STAR online, Sept 18th 2013

PETALING JAYA: There are 55,000 hearing-impaired individuals registered with social welfare, but less than 20 are currently pursuing their education at a local university.

 “The primary obstacle is a lack of acceptable grades in languages, mostly English” says Mohamad Sazali Shaari, President of the Malaysian Federation of the Deaf (MFD), who is Deaf himself.

Yet, there is government-sponsored affirmative action in place that gives the deaf preferential university entrances.

On top of that, some private institutions are offering fee reductions ranging from 50-70% to Deaf students.

Yet most Deaf students end their studies after going through polytechnics and vernacular programmes.

Most universities expect credits in English and Bahasa Malaysia, at least, before a student is considered eligible. Overcoming the language barrier is an uphill task, says Sazali.

“If we cannot hear, how can we speak? The sounds you make are also important in language”

“Poorly-qualified teachers are the main problem. Often, they get sent to special schools and are tasked with Deaf education even though they are not proficient in sign language,” he said.

“So, how can they teach effectively?

“Teachers of the Deaf must be specially-skilled in extending the meaning of language to students."

"Otherwise, pupils will not be able to understand subtle linguistic nuances. Sometimes, teachers are switched and assigned to areas out of their expertise."

According to Sazali, teachers without any special education background or those with qualifications to teach other disabilities end up with Deaf students. In these cases, both teachers and students end up becoming victims, he said.

The recent Malaysian Education Blueprint also recognised the shortage of qualified Special Education teachers and the need for disabled-friendly facilities in schools.

To help fix the problem, all teachers will be provided basic special education training modules at IPGs (Institut Pendidikan Guru) and public universities.

Existing special education programmes will also be strengthened and additional initiatives will be undertaken such as forming partnerships with other organisations to help improve support for special needs students.

Sazali recommended that all teachers in Deaf schools be made to have sign language certification before being posted.

“Having only Special Education credentials for teachers is not enough if we want Deaf students to succeed in schools,” he says.

No reply to questions posed by The Star Online has been received from the Special Education Department of the Ministry of Education as to the predicament of teachers and Deaf students in schools and universities.

I am plucking this special paragraph knowing that Deaf are the only few to study in a few of local Universities. It is true that each of Deaf schools need the qualified Sign Language teacher with understanding of Deaf Cultural will be able to do the well in class. With my own experienced as a Deaf student in a Deaf school, there are experienced sign language teachers + understandable of Deaf Culture, they were able to teach the Deaf students (both the weak and brilliant in language). Of course some are not doing well in language, but excellent in art. Compared to unqualified sign language teachers and not really into the world of Deaf Cultural, it is admitted that they faced the difficulty in teaching the language to the Deaf students. To improve the standard of special education system especially in Deaf schools, they should know how to get along well with the students' weakness to the better way in class. To have the play + study in class is important all the time as the Deaf students get bore fast especially when it comes to language. Teacher has to get the point to make all of them to love language by telling some interesting of jokes, short stories, visitations and exchange ideas will help this system much to get improve. 

Deaf students are ain't that so weak, they just need your help with full attention of affection. They will be do well in studies and sports too.

Being a role of teacher should play the right attitudes : Patience, Understanding and Flexible = SUCCESSful teacher to the Deaf student. be PASSION!

In other hand, parents are also the main important role for a Deaf child. Parents should give the full attention of affection and patience toward a Deaf child in everything. Take a Deaf child like your own. Do not ever neglect her/him for being a handicap. A Deaf child is a wonderful who will always have the compassion to love you all in return. Parents who learn sign language to communicate with their Deaf child is the key to enable him/her to do well in language. She/He will be able to master the language fast with the right proper is given education by parents. Communication in the family house is very important to a Deaf child to see, understand and learn with everybody, he/she will be able to gain a lot of knowledges to share with, live a meaningful life, enjoy and love by its nature will have the bright side for her/his future. 

With such effective ways of system will bring the successful to enable More Deaf to get into local Universities.

#Finally to the south! @Johor Bahru

The last I have visited Johor Bahru whom I have attended my uncle's wedding back in the year of 2005 (it has been 8 years ago). Have not visited around which was a vivid memory for me. I never imagined that I would visit Johor Bahru again. Well, my man, our couple friend and I have been planning to visit JB and we visited the place over last weekend. What a good short trip!

It was last Friday, a quite rush time after my working hours I have not showered, sob sob. My man and his friend have picked me and the friend's wife up from our work places. We stopped by a petrol station to fill up the car petrol and bought some food/ drink for the journey a while. And there was a very long jam at NKVE headed to the south at 8.30pm. I was so tired after work, so I took a short nap during the journey. Moreover, it was a heavy rainy throughout along the highway and we drove slowly. And I was awake and asked to open my phone GPS to turn it on and directed to our friend's place at Tampoi. I found that we were  still at You Peng, as I thought we have entered Johor but the GPS showed us that we got 1 more hour 15 mins to go! I was surprised why that. Then I took a minute to think and understood that Johor is big! 

It took us 4 hours. Thanked to God and my GPS phone which helped us to reach our friend's place safely. We had our late open raya house dinner at midnight sighs! Then we were helpless to look for hotel to stay. Erm.. Luckily found one hotel which was still available, we have finally booked! Thanks for everything in a big relieved I had all the way down to JB. 

                                                                 *************************************************

An Introduction of Johor Bahru

Johor Bahru, abbreviated as JB is the captial city of Johor in southern Malaysia, just across the causeway from Singapore. Johor Bahru is the southernmost city of the Eurasian mainland. Pasir Pelangi, the royal village is located within Johor Bahru. 

Johor Bahru is also known as Iskandar Malaysia. It is encompassing Johor Bahru, Johor Bahru Tengah, Kulaijaya, Pasir Gudang and Nusajaya, a major development zone in Johor. It was named after the late Sultan Iskandar Al-Haj. At 2215 km, it is two-and-a half times bigger than Singapore and 48 times the size of Putrajaya. It is intended to draw investment and business to Johor and will be among the biggest development projects in Malaysia. The state administrative capital moves to Nusajaya. Residential areas includes Bukit Indah and Horizon Hills townships. 

For Your Info :-

Johor Bahru's metropolitan area can be easily divided into four parts - North, East, West and South.

North - Its main centre is Taman Johor Jaya, and it can be accessed via the trunk road, Jalan Tebrau. There can be a relatively frequent peak hour jam along this road. Recently, the Austin area has been a hive for constructions activities with the latest Jusco Tebrau City locating in its vicinity. 

East - The main hubs here are Pasir Gudang which is both a port city as well as a manufacturing hub and Masai.

West - Probably one of the largest areas of the four, its hub is Skudai and important housing estates such as Taman Ungku Tun Aminah, Taman Skudai Baru, Taman Bukit Indah, Taman Perling and Taman Nusa Bestari are located here. 

South - The main city centre is located on the southern part of the city which has a link to Singapore via the causeway. It is an area with housing estates which have been around for more than three decades. Important estates include Taman Pelangi, Taman Century and Taman Sentosa.

                                                             ***************************************************

The next morning day was still cloudy, thanked to the beautiful weather. We all can go out in chilly and enjoy the day we planned. 

It is Hotel Suan Bee, a 3 star accommodation

We all gang went to jalan - jalan around JB, took us a far places to go. JB is indeed a big state! Eventually, we were down at a place makan Malay food. Then we all were going to the JB Deaf Association office to stay there a while and followed my friend to this place, Sultan Ibrahim Building where there was an arty festival 2013.

10th ARTS FESTIVALS 2013 all over Johor Bahru

Built in 1940, this grey-bricked building is located on top of Bukit Timbalan. It used to house the State Secretariat, the Chief Minister office (Menteri Besar), State Assembly Hall and the offices of the state government. The building is an architectural blend of British colonial, Malay and Saracenic elements. It has distinctive, 64m - high Mughal style tower.

Visiting hours : Mon - Thu (8am - 12.45pm) & (2pm - 5pm)

                Fri (9am - 12.15pm) & (2.45pm - 5pm)

                   Closed on Sat, Sun and Public Holidays.

When we were at the Arty Festival, I was waiting for my friend to come over where he stays at Ulu Tiram which is quite far from JB. There he came over and it was a very joyful to see him after a long time he had the last farewell in Penang. And thanked to him for guiding us all to the good dinner at this Roost Juice Bar, a retro cafe back to the 60s-70s (Happy Hour) with the very creative and unique decorations! It is indeed of vintage ambiance. Recalls me back to the time of Saloma.

#Korean Cuisine @ 1 Utama

It was a piece of photo I took at 1 Utama with my girl friend. It was a nice time to see her again. We had a great time having our Korean cuisine there.

#Little Homemade Desserts

 I thought of desserts to be made. Finally here they were. They were delicious to taste. 

Who loves durian? I took a packet of Durian jelly. Pour into sauce pan to stir it and boiled until cool. 

Store in the fridge and it looked great in shape. 

To taste better, the durian jelly was cut into pieces added with cream.

Who loves healthy low fat yogurt? To have good digestion of drinking. Take fruits! 3 fruits with cream, yogurt, bit of water and ice cubes to blend it up & serve!

Feels fresh!
