The essence of life.

Freedom from time & money.

The Right side of my brain fills my empty section inside my skull. The left site allows me to capture the intelligence of others for business and personal reference. My personal objective in life is still far from just a dream. While I am still caught in my own "net", I am utilizing the real Net to widen my personal networking. After all, it is only logical to create an extension from the current business that I am engaging in with minimal effort & financial strain.

The Net might change the way how we live in the future. Personal & business communication will be modeled on an interactive direct basis.

For a budding business medium that has little barrier of entry - content is king. Unfortunately, Content development doesn't make you smell money right away and can be a very time consuming process. while on the other hand, it can drain your financial resources. The MIR's left is essentially resources based, in certain cases, we are sponsoring creations to get content in return, so, don't be doubtful about our sincerity. Unfortunately, some contributors have been questioning the logical aspect (money..) on returns. Well, after all these years, my self belief was often put to test too.

here is another self-funded web development work < http://www.NATURE.com.my > Khatulistiwa@Malaysia Project. I always like nature and I want to interpret my own version of how we seeing things happening around us and also aim to create a database on this specific topic for our country. If you were to ask me why am I doing this ? Social responsibility, I guess. Just like One of my very good friend who now has shifted over to videography for

He has first class dedication at work and never thought of any materialistic return while many has often take his hard work for granted, I remember one of the night when he came back from an exhaustive meeting with some members of the tourism board; obviously he was very low key that night. While I picked up him from the hotel, he asked ..." Why is it so difficult to carry out something meaningful projects for our country? I am 52 years old now and I may not able to provide my best in another couple of years time... and many people doesn't understand that why I am coming back to Malaysia just to shoot all these video and still pictures .." Yes. it is no joke to stay alone in the mid Kalimantan forest for six weeks just to video some rare wildlife scenes.. I know how he worked under the H2O... I always jokingly tell him he should be conferred a Datokship or something like that for his untiring effort and passion towards the country. By the way, he resides in London.

Some asked me: What is Internet all about ??
"
Playground for the Minds" I said.

What's MIR all about then ?
"
Minds Surfing Minds..." I answered.

By the way, Leo Bodnar, from Moscow mailed and explained to me what 'MIR' means in Russian. I thought I should share it with some of you. < Click here >

It has taken me a decade to come across a perfect potential business medium that I can enjoy, has a tremendous growth potential for creative commercial applications, yet still at an exacting budding business cycle. Global commercial Internet application is only few years old, everybody is struggling to find a footing. The whole IT industry's business model & strategies are constructed around the Internet and Intranet. Software giant like Microsoft can throw in billions try to win some market share back others, the medium also paves some ways for relatively small and unknown companies to become somebody or it creates turnaround stories for some prominent IT corporate icons too - to developers, it is a "promised land" and there is still a cruel & bloody war out there ...

The Malaysian economy is in a transitional stage of changing. At least I know I am not alone and can afford to be ambitious. Along the way, I am fortunate enough to have assembled a high caliber core technical team and pooling a string of satellite software developers enter into the battlefield. I may or may not succeed. That is too early to conclude, but one thing is for sure, As a Malaysian, I have never doubted our own capabilities to take on the rest of other players in this market place ! If only some of those local strategic parties* are not as defensive and have the vision beyond their eyes can see, the chances can be better.

I am and we are in to join the war zone now. While I am on the way there, my personal interpretation of essence of life is still far from reality..

MIR DISC.jpg
* I had my dream too and it almost was made a reality. MIR was almost made to be a subsidiary of a prominent Government investment arm in year 2001. Well, those tech firms at our neibouring countries will be happy to see such initiatives failed. It was very unfortunate and it was also my biggest set back in business as I don't think I still have the energy to enroll myself in the combat zone as age is draining my passion gradually. On a bird eye's view, looks like we will be trailed behind again rather than leads in this ASEAN new war zone of K-economy and the MEGA World Free Trade battle zones that follows ... I hope our government knows how to position ourselves in the coming new playground.
