pondering & wondering on MALAYSIAN architectural scene: where do we fit ourself in to ?

15 January 2008

just a little 'Kick Off" statement for 2008

aaahrgh . . . only NOW i realize that it is NOT EASY to be a writer . . . . . . . But a CPD Seminar on 'The 'Massification' of Architectural Knowledge: strategy For The Production Of Books, Media articles and Publication Spin Offs" By Prof. Dr. Mohd. Tajudin Mohd. Rasdi from UTM last 15th. of December 2007, that i attended had sparked some mission probably to some participants who realized how bad the status of our present architectural write-ups [or books]especially in Bahasa Melayu versions. Well it is a true facts especially for the Malay Architects out there, that we have been so quiet all this while. Someone has to look into this matters seriously and lets put up some effort to build up our vision to "Memperkasakan Budaya dan Senibina Nusantara Kita". Apa akan jadi pada anak bangsa kita? perlukah mereka selamanya ketandusan ilmu dalam proses menghayati keunikan senibina melayu kita? Peranan siapakah ini? . . . . . . tak perlu kita menoleh ke kiri dan kanan lagi kerana KITA [not me alone i persume] perlu bertanya kepada empunya diri dulu : SUDAHKAH AKU BERSEDIA?


Personally, I myself have to look for the answer to the above question, but for a start for this 2008, why don't we look at the content and the intention of this blog which had been rated as follows [oops! . . . only for fun. No other intention for the intention sake]:



Your Blog Should Be Purple

You're an expressive, offbeat blogger who tends to write about anything and everything.
You tend to set blogging trends, and you're the most likely to write your own meme or survey.
You are a bit distant though. Your blog is all about you - not what anyone else has to say.
