Sudah hampir seminggu dari tarikh 19 Januari, tarikh keramat oleh para pengguna twitter di Malaysia. Pada tarikh tersebut, boleh dikatakan ramai pengguna tegar twitter di Malaysia bersatu padu bagaikan menurut kata keramat 1Malaysia, berganding bahu untuk menyumbangkan suara, maaf, twit masing-masing yang berkaitan #yorais sehingga ianya menjadi salah satu topik terhangat didunia.

Apa itu #yorais?

Pada 16 Januari 2010, Menteri Informasi, Komunikasi & Kebudayaan,  Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim telah menasihati rakyat Malaysia, TERUTAMANYA MUSLIM, supaya tidak terlalu ‘ketagih/mendalami’ terhadap kegunaan internet khususnya Facebook & Twitter. Berita lanjut, click sahaja butang spoiler dibawah.

Saya dapat rasakan yang mana Dr Rais Yatim sebenarnya mahu memberikan komentar yang berbentuk pencegahan diatas kejadian pelajar Aswara yang telah mengeluarkan kenyataan yang berbentuk ugutan di Facebook. Namun begitu, saya tidak rasa maklumat sebenar yang ingin disampaikannya dapat dicerna dengan tepat oleh para Netizens. Berikut adalah penjelasan saya tapi sebelum itu teliti ayat2 berikut.

Yesterday in twitterzen, this news being circulated, it’s about the Deputy Education Minister Dr Mohd Puad Zarkashi want’s the private sector to use Bahasa Malaysia instead English. Read a bit about the news below.

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysians in the private sector should use Bahasa Malaysia and not English to show pride of the national language, Deputy Education Minister Dr Mohd Puad Zarkashi said yesterday.

He said they used English 99 per cent of the time and hardly communicated in Bahasa Malaysia.

“This also occurs in government-linked companies where we have this weird culture of people speaking to each other in English instead of the national language,” he said at the launch of the Bahasa Melayu International linguistics seminar here.

Puad said the private sector, by not using Bahasa Malaysia, had tarnished the image of the national language.

He said Malaysians should emulate the French, Japanese and Koreans who were loyal to their language.

Last Tuesday I manage to attend YTL 4G Innovation Network signing ceremony between YTL, Samsung, Cisco, just to name a few. I got the invites thanks to David Wang/Blogjunkie since he got extra and wanted to pass along to mobile developers especially. And I got to attend it. There’s many familiar faces. Kamal Fariz, Aizatto, Kugan Malaysian Wireless, Kegan Malaysia Crime, Richard Azlan Abas, Mike from iTrain and managed to knew Tham Keng Yew from Socialwalk that i’ve mistakenly recognize him as @zilch . Oh yeah saw Daniel Cerventus too. So after signing ceremony, it was followed by a luncheon.

The table seating arrangements were distributed by profession. Me came as Flavert Media Lab representative thus seated me altogether with Kegan and Mike with Tham. During lunch, we were served with, I think, not a chinese cuisine, but rather mixed up. But then, as we enjoy the business lunch together, sharing technologies about mobile development with Rocky Agrawal from YTL, one thing that spoils it all.

Indeed a sensitive issue. Try shouting “oil price increase” and you’ll see a herds of vehicle rushing to the nearest petrol pump.

But come to think of it, oil price is a complicated issue. Why?

Malaysia is an oil exporter

Yeah. As we know, Malaysia is blessed with many export commodities, one of it is Petroleum. We have many oil reserve especially in East coast. Wait. I didn’t think we still have many because Petroleum created from the remains of creatures during Paleolithic/ Dinosaur age. Terengganu and Kelantan have the oil reserve in their sea area especially. Malaysia export the oil and also use it for citizen’s vehicle. Thus, being subsidize.

Malaysia subsidize the oil to the people

Yup. Government subsidize the oil to the people. Despite that, price still fluctuate and the price still deemed expensive. Fresh graduates who can afford a car, might can’t afford to maintain it. Let say every fresh graduates has a basic salary of RM1500. And for basic first hand car ( saga/viva/myvi ) they may pay Rm400-500 every month and then add to their fuel, i assume RM200 per month base on the engine capacity. The total of it already near to half of their salary and then add in home rent if applicable and also paying back their sponsors/loan, imagine how much they left to survive and save. Well no wonder there might be a numbers who didn’t pay back to PTPTN.

Some people now using motorcycle to cut down their daily fuel usage. Some using their vehicle just to get to the nearest public transport, especially PUTRA/LRT/RapidKL or Komuter and Monorail and then changing trains or buses to go through office. But does using public transport solve all the problem?
