Don't Stop til You Get Enough

I've been too busy to blog. A business plan is revised and I am given additional working portfolio - Operational Risk Management. Usually, it takes me 4-5 hours to write a new song and I spend like an hour a day for the purpose. With additional work, I have to do lotsa business and field trips.

Since this blog is about publishing new songs, having not much time writing songs means I have nothing to post. I however may try the best to post something at www.mantessa.blogspot.com.

For security and practical purposes, I have to turn off the comment section.

I think I'll be back posting entries as early as January, 2011.

Elitism Exposed: Part 3 – Humans, Introduction

Please read the Disclosure Statement before proceed.

This blog is now starting with Elitism Exposed: Part 3 – Humans. I have to separate The Introduction and The Content or else this entry is lengthy.

Part 1 of Elitism Exposed deals with the ancient civilizations where in the end, three questions arises: Does the secret of Atlantis hidden in the Ancient Egypt? Where the sacred knowledge of Atlantis applied in Ancient Egypt did came from? Is the secret school still exists?

Part 2 of Elitism Exposed deals with the Djinns where in the end this blog mentioned the existence of The Secret Society who is The Devil Worshippers.

There are direct and indirect links between Part 1 and Part 2 in the form of clues by understanding both the achievement of ancient civilizations and the characters of Iblis aka Lucifer and his followers (among djinns and humans). Elitism Exposed will put all the links directly together in later part when it deals with the conspiracies conspired by Iblis aka Lucifer and his followers onto all humans and humanity.

Along the way, questions and arguments arise on these music videos through this blog, Facebook, YouTube and Tagged and interestingly, mostly shared the arguments on should we be secular or should we apply sacred science in our aspects of life – social, economics, politics and etc. Unfortunately, I have not answered the questions and arguments because Elitism Exposed has to complete certain parts so that the questions can be answered.

In advance, it has always been the major objective for Iblis aka Lucifer and his followers to separate us humans from utilizing our utmost advantages of our own natures. The fact is, Iblis aka Lucifer himself and his followers are major in sacred science. The thing is of course sacred science can be used either for evil or good.

Part 3 deals with us humans particularly on our own natures. It is very important for us to understand our own natures because Iblis aka Lucifer and his followers know our natures too well that every second, every minute, every hour, every day, every week, every month, every year from the day we were born until our last breaths, we are constantly attacked.

Pointing out our natures, I believe the music videos do not contradict at all with Abrahamic faiths (Judaism, Christianity and Islam) and do not contradict that much with Eastern Theologies (Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism etc). Of course as a muslim, all references are taken from Islamic point of view.

In short, our natures are divided into four – Body, Soul, Mind and Spirit.

Trading – Faith Over Knowledge

Previously in this section, the blog mentioned on the Family Database which is a great tool for our family unity. It is now fully utilized for businesses. The database is fundamental in our capital accumulation and business growth. We don’t borrow money from the banks. As far as bankers are concerned, we consider them as the devils among the highest level.

In so many ways, wars and trading have a lot in common. Acehnese had fought against Raja-Raja of Beneres (India), the pirates particularly of India and China, Srivijaya, Singhasari, Langkasuka, Ayuddiya, Majapahit, the Portuguese, the Dutch, the Japanese and Indonesia. Acehnese had built kingdoms like Perlak, Rokan, Pasai, Kedah, Inderapuri and two empires Malacca and Aceh. Historically, these kingdoms and empires were built and had lot to do with wars and trading.

So what makes us Acehnese have the willingness to fight (in wars) and to compete (in trading) which led to kingdoms and empires built?

Wars and trading have a lot in common BUT the MOST IMPORTANT COMMON us Acehnese have between the two is OUR HEARTS.

Fundamentally, Acehnese are very concern about their hearts. Between the hearts and the minds, Acehnese give more priority to the hearts because the hearts are a lot more alive. The hearts are where FAITH is. When the faith demands us to fight, the hearts don’t calculate how big or how strong our enemies are so we fight nevertheless. When the faith demands us to compete, the hearts don’t calculate how big or how strong our competitors are so we compete nevertheless.

Many years ago, people advised us not to open shops in places like Penang Road, Macallister Road, Campbell Street, Burmah Road, Chow Kit Road etc because these are Chinese dominated areas. They said to open shops in these areas will be business suicides. Unfortunately, our hearts never bother because the hearts have faith. We run our shops in these places nevertheless. Guess what? The Chinese in those areas are indeed very cooperative and helpful and we are doing okay.

With Faith, our hearts are brave. That’s why historically Acehnese have never done research finding rational reasons not to go to wars and not to trade. Our hearts never tell us something like … oh we might get killed or we might lose money so we better stay behind or find stable jobs with fixed salaries so we can live longer or accomplish more things with less risk.

Months ago, I sent some selected shop keepers to be upgraded as supervisors for training. They were trained by this government agency. At the end of the training session, I was shocked that the trainers told the keepers that running sundry shops are not prospective.

I was like … WHAT??? Back in January 2005 we started with 15 shops and today we have more than 800 and these trainers told my people running sundry shops are not prospective? So I contacted my friend who is actually their boss and complaint and funnily I found out that those trainers are sure paper qualified … they can talk marketing, branding, financing etc but none of them ever run own businesses their entire lives. What a bunch of jokers.

Sangkar Duka

I’ll be off blogging for a week or two starting Wednesday night. I’m taking my family for vacation and later traveling for business trips.

I have posted this song before and lately I had no time to write a new song. So I converted this song into music video featuring Inderawangsa.

‘Sangkar Duka’ means Cage of Sadness.

Inderawangsa – Hawa Gersang

Finally Inderawangsa is given their first song – Hawa Gersang. Took me three weeks to complete the music video which is still a bit clumsy here and there. I am determined for improvements. Now that I understand a bit on how to make the characters move around, so it’s time to learn human movements in a lot detail. This is something I have never really bothered much so it’s time to start.

Hawa gersang are two Malay words meaning Dry Weather. The title also could mean something else which I am afraid could be a bit controversial … ahaks.

Inderawangsa is at www.mantessa.blogspot.com

Without doubt, animation and animation programming will be part of the blog but not too soon.

So, without further delay, I give you Inderawangsa, their first song and music video – Hawa Gersang.

Magick River by Antares M

This entry is brought forward by Citizen Journalism.

Magick River is now upgraded into this section.

Superb English. Unconventional thinking. Unique.

Adapted from Magick River (April 14, 2009)

Somebody (I think that somebody was me … hehehe) pointedly asked a few days ago: WHERE IS MALAYSIA HEADING?

Part 1: Honesty is honestly defined :-) Unfortunely, Malaysia is saddled with a crime minister instead of a prime minister.

Part 2: (Wishfully story of course) With the resignation of the crime minister, a sizeable majority of parliamentarians have either crossed over or formed independent parties, leaving Umno/BN with considerably less than one-third of the seats.

Part 3: An insight of Mahathir and the police state.

Part 4: Antares himself is putting so much energy into ensuring that Pakatan Rakyat takes over the federal government as soon as possible from the hardened eco-criminals in Umno/BN.

Part 5: The notion that the physical universe was created by an all-knowing, all-powerful, ubiquitously existing Maker is fairly common, especially amongst the more conservative, more traditional - and therefore less adventurous – thinkers.

This can be controversial to those who read without an open mind and healthy dose of skepticism. Personally, this is a MUST READ POSTING :-)

Part 6: A bit on Sex Education :-)

Part 7: On the Royalty concept.

Part 8: On self-awareness (I think). Really heavy stuff here.

Part 9: Pictures paint them all :-)

Trading – The Family Database

Previously, the section mentioned on how the family acquires capitals – Pooled Capital and Capital Investments and Family Borrowings and also on how basically we have grown from 15 shops back in January 2005 to more than 800 shops today – Centralized Purchasing and One-Month Credits.

Basically acehnese have the willinness to unite, to fight and to be independent. The characters are the result of 8,000 years historical developments which are nothing but calamities and wars.

In 1976, the UN granted acehnese the right to defend Aceh against Indonesia and so acehnese all over the world have united for the first time after the fell of Aceh Empire and formed GAM aka Gerakan Aceh Merdeka aka Free Aceh Movement.

There were problems.

Firstly, there was a financial problem as to fight against Indonesia militarily required a lot of money. Then there was a question of leadership as the royal family have been ousted and migrated particularly to the Scandinavian countries. Lastly, acehnese traditionally are divided according to families.

The solution was to unite acehnese all over the world according to the families and every family contributed financially or militarily.

In 1976, Langgar Family of Kedah took a step forward. A family database was initiated to identify family members. In 1982, the database was computerized but there was a problem.

Langgar Family is among acehnese families which are considered not originated from Aceh as for more than 1,000 years, the family has rooted in Kedah. 1,000 years being in Kedah has divided the family into two sub-families namely The Langkat Family and The Setul Family. The only significant difference between the two is that Langkat Family is still conversing in aceh mainly in Kedah while Setul Family converses in Siamese and mainly in Southern Thailand. After too many protests from other families, until today, The Setul Family is not considered as acehnese. So The Langgar Family is The Langkat Family but the name Langgar is maintained to honor the history.

In 1986, the database was declared completed. Today, there are more than 15,000 family members where 2,385 are Malaysians. Most family members are scattered all over Europe and Africa.

Some other families in Malaysia followed suit building their own databases. Coincidently, families with family database are strong trading families while those who have none are so not.

Answering Politicians - Rais Yatim

Obviously the Elite like this Rais Yatim, Minister of Information, Communication, Multimedia and whatever love to remind us the people to always abide by the law although overall the people are abiding the law. It is good that people particularly bloggers sometimes be reminded and it is always good too that the Elite are reminded.

As said, it is good to be reminded that we all abide the law. The thing is, we should always abide the law and at the same time do the right things … morally right.

Breaking promises is morally wrong BUT can be still within the law. We were promised that there shall be no price increase but the Elite increased the fuel price in the parabolic manner. It is within the law BUT breaking a promise is NOT morally right.

To appoint a judge suggested by lobbyists is within the law BUT is it morally right?

The Elite themselves like this Rais Yatim too need to be reminded:
1. Personality is just as important as policy.
2. Words do matter. The delivery of them matters even more.
3. The internet isn't a channel, it's THE channel.
4. You can do things within the law BUT the people will judge your morality behind it.
5. You can't force people to like you.

I Voter: Unvote UMNO – Part 2/5 Unity ala UMNO

This entry is based on an article of an Elite media which I personally consider very seditious. The article is here. (Unfortunately in Malay language).

UMNO has called on PAS (a Malaysia Islamic Party) to unite the Malay political parties. No, they did not invite the Malays of PKR (People Justice Party) although those Malays in PKR are quite significant in the political scenario of this country.

In fact, this reminds me of an incident watched on internet. When an UMNO youth from Selangor suggested to bring back Anwar Ibrahim (the de-facto leader of PKR, an ex-UMNO member and an ex-deputy prime minister to Mahathir) for the sake of Malay unity, the reply from UMNO members particularly supporters of both Mahathir and Mukhriz booed him, said FUCK YOU to him and dragged him out of the assembly hall in front of both Mahathir and Mukhriz.

Now wait …

This young man gave a suggestion to bring back Anwar Ibrahim into UMNO for the sake of unity … I repeat this again, for the sake of unity … those supporters of both Mahathir and Mukhriz booed him, said FUCK YOU to him and dragged him out of the assembly hall.

Weird is not?

A young man gave a suggestion for the sake of unity and the best thing those UMNO members particularly supporters of both Mahathir and Mukhriz could do was to boo, to say FUCK YOU and drag him out.

What is this UNITY suggested by UMNO in the first place?

Is it for the sake of protecting power? Protecting projects for cronies? Protecting wealth – Rolex, bungalows, BMW, Mercedez Benz etc etc etc?

Unity with PAS? Want PAS members to behave like UMNO members – say FUCK YOU or whatever other nasty words those UMNO members are so good at? How about keris-waving? How about teaching PAS that the Chinese and the Indians are ‘kaum pendatang’? Not to mention to kill a human rather a snake too …

UMNO is desperate. Their kind of unity is filthy. You know, desperate people resort to desperate actions … like the article linked above :-)

Trading – One-Month Credit

All calculations are only for demo purposes. They do not reflect true business transactions.

Previously, this section mentioned on Centralized Purchasing which paved the way to a very good trading opportunity – One-Month Credit.

One-Month Credit is a trading facility given by suppliers. Generally, this is a very rare opportunity given to sundry shop owners but acehnese traders as a whole are seen to be prompt in credit payments. When we promise to pay in one month time, it means, we will pay in one month time.

There are three major reasons why we are given this facility:
a) Since we have moved upstream and becoming wholesalers and to certain products as sole-distributors, we give ourselves the facility.
b) We are so known as good sellers that suppliers really don’t mind given us the facility.
c) That we control certain brands, suppliers of other brands have no choice but to offer us the facility so that their products are accepted in our shops.

At least, 30% of our inventories are built by this facility which means we have the advantage of having 30% extra cash allocated for purchasing for the whole month. Historically, once the extra cash of 5 to 6 shop owners combined, it is enough to start a new shop. On the following months, the new shops will contribute to the growth.

Introducing INDERAWANGSA

I have been a bit nervous lately for Liverpool might not be taking any titles this season (nothing is new under the sun) and a bit pissed as the devils just can’t stop winning … gggrrrrrrrrrrr … so I thought of starting a new blog.

I have been asked the same questions too many times so I think it’s time for a new blog talking about music, writing music, music and animation programming and anything in between.

I give you Inderawangsa :-)

Hi all! We are Inderawangsa and we are programmed by Azer Mantessa to Rock!

We are Progressive Rock!

Where the people get to avoid the norm, think beyond … be it on literature, fantasy, folklore, science or fiction, worldly or spirituality, philosophy, social commentary, finance, economy, faith, nationality or all of the above. We shall combine the social criticism with own struggles against greed and madness.

Begun a new blog has :-)

Meantime, while Azer is having his 32-bit python programming for our rock music animation (most probably he has to go back to school and learn something … muhahahaha), allow us to introduce ourselves …

Lela

I’m Lela the Bass Player. Am so honored to be selected to play the instrument as playing bass can be very unconventional but still intact as the root notes for songs to keep flowing. You will find that simplicity is so not my style :-)

Petaka

Hello, this is Petaka. I play the rhythm guitars. You’ll be hearing me playing those mutated chords harmonically. Once a while, I play the second soloist that is enough to make you wonder, who is the lead guitarist?

Waja

I am Waja who adds more dynamics with those keyboards and synthesizers. I love experimenting new sound to give the band more environmental effect. If you really want to know what sound technology is, hear me playing :-)

Aduka

Hi! I’m Aduka the Lead Guitarist. I play the melody which is the fundamental element in a song. I hope when comes to solo playing, I’ll taste you up with everything I can feed you – spicy, sweet, sour, and everything nice and likewise :-)

This blog will resume its 'normality' after this.

Critical Blog Reading #003

What is more interesting than to read on this Mahathir aka Che Det aka TDM aka Tun Dr. Mahathir aka the ex-Prime Minister aka The Funniest Man Year 2008 who has returned to UMNO:

10 Dalil Kenapa Tun Mahathir Wajib Dicalonkan Di Seri Penanti
Tun Mahathir Perosak Agama dan Budaya Bangsa!!!
The Crooked Bridge – By himself (I consider this hilarious)
Mahathir – The Happiest Man Part 1
Mahathir – The Happiest Man Part 2

This Mahathir is asking Malaysians to explain what is Mahathirism. Funny isn’t it? As a blogger, he should have known that all he had to do is to google the word. There are many places in the cyberspace where Mahathirism is clearly defined.

Well, maybe he doesn’t want to know. Sweet :-)

I, Voter: Unvote UMNO – Part 1/5 About Being Grateful

This entry is based on an article of an Elite media which I personally consider very seditious. The article is here. (Unfortunately in Malay language).

Right now, if I were to vote, I will certainly not going to vote UMNO (United Malay National Organization). Who cares right? I’m still waiting to be an official voter and I’m nobody important but that’s exactly the point.

Last General Election, there were about four to five million Malaysians who are qualified as voters but have never bothered to register. I’m included because for years I have never trusted the politicians and I’ve been running businesses successfully without any political connection whatsoever.

There are many factors why I’ve changed my mind but the result of the last General Election is major. Not because the ruling parties are losing strengths or the opposition parties are gaining strengths but because there is a major negative thinking particularly among my Malay friends that the future is doomed once what now known as The People’s Alliance is to be in power.

To them, Malays will always been taken care of by UMNO though they know UMNO is full of corrupted people particularly the leaders.

Wow!

Let me repeat this, Malays will always been taken care of by UMNO though they know UMNO is full of corrupted people particularly the leaders.

Wow! Again!!

As a Malay, I admit that UMNO has helped me a lot particularly education. At the age of 13, I was sent to a fully government boarding school under government scholarship where everything was taken care of – education, money, food, shelter etc.

Here lies the argument – I am supposed to be “grateful” because all these years UMNO has helped the Malays in so many ways and therefore I must be “grateful” by showing support or vote for UMNO.

Two questions then have arisen:
1) How do you define “being grateful”?
2) Do I have to support or vote for UMNO though they and I know very well, in fact admitted by UMNO itself, that UMNO is full of corrupted people particularly the leaders.

I have defined “being grateful” in so many ways particularly in this section (I, Voter). Being grateful is simply to do the right thing and avoid doing the wrong thing.

To vote for a candidate that they and I know is corrupted and claim myself “being grateful” does not make sense at all.

However there is this kind of being grateful too. For many years I’ve been taking care of my grandmother who stays with us and she is old, sick and forgetful. Sometimes she is very irritating. No matter how irritating she is, I am grateful that she is still around because she is my grandmother.

To ask me to apply this is kind of grateful to a political party like UMNO is ridiculous.

No, We Are So Not

Many online-journalists (ooppss, they do call themselves as bloggers) keep on saying that the people have been emotional and perceptive that they keep on voting against the Elite.

Unlike them, the people are not so good in English, a language now used in teaching science and mathematics as if the language has direct impact on how people think and calculate.

The people are perceptive?

Living in the same area for years does not make the people use judgment? The people can’t analyze and differentiate the differences in efficiency, transparency, honesty etc??

Maybe the people should altogether accept English as the language to be used in teaching science and mathematics. Maybe people like me should improve in English.

Why not?

Although being good in English does not necessarily make one to be good in thinking and calculating or in science and mathematics but there is an opportunity to become a journalist. Once one becomes a journalist, one can pretend as if one knows everything including how people think. Oh oh oh … A journalist who is good in English too can pretend as if she or he knows science and mathematics very well.

Wow!

Obviously the people don’t bother what the online-journalists (ooppss, they do call themselves as bloggers) perceive on how people think. They are those who perceive not the people. That by-elections, the people walked the talking … ooppss … perceiving journalists :-)

Elitism Exposed: Part 2 - Iblis a.k.a. Lucifer

Please do read Elitism Exposed: The Disclosure Statement before proceed.

At the end of Elitism Exposed: Part 1 – Ancient Civilizations, this blog has raised two questions:

1) Does the secret school still exist?
2) Who were behind the teachings of the great ancient civilizations?

The two questions above are not answered in this Elitism Exposed: Part 2 – Iblis a.k.a. Lucifer because the questions are a lot more relevant to our present time. The questions will be indirectly and directly answered in further parts of Elitism Exposed. Part 2 however introduces the creature known as Jinn or Genie (in English).

In short, they do exist but we cannot see them (in their true forms) with our own eyes. Once they are in their physical forms, we can see them. There are many ways they can be seen. Basically, there are two ways: (a) they transform themselves into their physical forms (b) we do certain rituals so they will get to transform themselves into their physical forms.

I have put a lot of attention to this creature since I was a kid. As my ancestors were the people of Langkasuka who practiced sorcery in order to get the grip of the kingdom, some of us get to inherit some of ‘them’. Unfortunately, my other ancestors, the acehnese traders came and defeated Langkasuka and established Kingdom of Kedah. The ancestors were converted into Islam and sorcery was abolished totally. Still, we get to inherit them but the rule is not to use ‘them’ for any purpose.

Anyway, hope the music videos are educational in knowing the creatures (who know us very well indeed). Again, as a muslim, most of the views are from Islamic point of view. This blog however will try the best to make this issue as universal as possible. Well, it is a universal issue anyway. Evil is everywhere.

Content

There They Are – One of the many secrets of the secret school is the history of human past which is cyclical. Civilization, consciousness, understanding and ability rise to the incredible height and then fall back into barbarism again and again …

Trading – Centralized Purchasing

All calculations are for demonstration only. They are not based on real business transactions.

Previously on our family trading activities, this blog has mentioned on capital acquisition which are Pooled Capital and Family Borrowings. Starting Year 2005, the business went parabolic in numbers of shops due to many other business strategies.

Centralized Purchasing

Basically, us acehnese traders are individualistic type in a sense that we don’t like to work under other people or we prefer to be our own bosses.

Acehnese farmers however have been applying collectivism where they work collectively for good yield which benefits them as a whole. Acehnese traders however do not apply collectivism but we do apply what is known as Corporative Individualism. This is a strategy where shop owners work collectively for the benefit of every shop owner.

To demonstrate what Centralized Purchasing means is as follows:

1) Say an average shop sells 10 tanks of cooking gas a day.

2) In a month, the shop sells 300 tanks of cooking gas which means the owner have to buy 300 tanks for the sales.

3)Say for every 100 tanks purchased, a shop owner received a tank for free. This means, for 300 tanks purchased, a shop owner received 3 tanks for free.

4) Say there are 100 shop owners. Therefore 30,000 tanks are purchased monthly. Also, 300 tanks are received for free.

5) That free 300 tanks then means the family as a whole has grown 1% in inventory which are sold to a new shop owner with handsome profits.

Note: Shop owners lose the free tanks but gain profits from the sales to the new shop owner.

Centralized Purchasing however does not directly involve in the family business growth … however …

There are two major advantages in Centralized Purchasing:
1) Having the power for business merger or acquisition being the distributor of a product.

2) Having the business benefit called One-Month Credit.

Having the ability to purchase 30,000 tanks monthly is huge. Once we are a big buyer, we can force the distributor to accept us as business partner or face the consequence of losing us as buyers. This allows us to move upstream from running sundry shops and become distributors/wholesalers. We do this all the time to many products.

This blog will mention The One-Month Credit which is major to our business growth. Some other time … God’s willing.
