Catatan JWJ2 - Passport Malaysia

Manakala hendak ke luar negara mestilah seseorang itu mempunyai passport. Tanda pengenalan rakyat Malaysia dibawah kerajaan yang dinaungi oleh Duli Yang DiPertuan Agong Malaysia.

Maka setakat yang aku tahu, passport antarabangsa itu punyai dua macam. Satu yang 2 tahun dan satu yang 5 tahun. Yang 2 tahun itu sebenarnya memberikan kelonggaran untuk keluar negara hanya selama 1 tahun 6 bulan dan bayarannya hanya seratus ringgit Malaysia sahaja, begitulah juga yang 5 tahun hanya punyai tempoh 4 tahun 6 bulan dan bayarannya hanya tiga ratus ringgit Malaysia sahaja.

Kerajaan Malaysia tidak membenarkan rakyatnya keluar negara jika tempoh passport berbaki 6 bulan dari tarikh sah sesuatu passport itu. Ini ada tertulis didalam passport.

Salam Aidil Adha - Dinar dan Dirham

"Dinar dan dirham bukanlah untuk mengembalikan nostalgia zaman silam, tetapi untuk menegakkan sunnah yang telah lama berkubur," Datuk Paduka Husam Musa

Dan sejarah realiti Empayar Islam Benua Siam Kedah telah pun membuktikan bahawa perkara dinar dan dirham ini bukanlah baru malah telah terpakai di Benua Siam, khasnya Tanah Melayu ini seperti yang termaktub di dalam Undang-undang Kedah.

"Ambil olehmu dinar atau pakaian atau perak, perniagakan olehmu, lain akan kita, akan engkau sekalian, hendaklah ditentukan laba pakaian itu..." - UUK MS 80-81 (1786M-1200H)

Apakah kita masih lagi mahu bermimpi sedang satu dunia sudah mulai bangkit menggosok mata?

Buat permulaan, adakah salah jika digunakan dinar bagi ganti wang kertas untuk membeli lembu buat ibadah qorban tahun ini...?

Melayu sudah mula percaya kepada Book of Mormon?

Ada segelintir umat Melayu sudah mula percaya dan terpengaruh dengan kandungan the Book of Mormon. Jadi apa sebenarnya the Book of Mormon ini? Apa kandungan dan doktrinnya?

Doctrine Mormon about the lost tribe mengatakan Native Americans were the lost tribe, but DNA evidence shows that they came from North Asia, South Asia or basically China. It is conflicting with the Mormon teaching and theory about the lost tribe. It has been proven that the Native American were not the lost tribe.Ok fine.

And now, for some reason, there are Malays who claim that the lost tribe were actually the Malays. Ok fine, that's part of the research (no issue)

1421: The Year China Discovered America

Book Review

1421: The Year China Discovered America by Gavin Menzies, William Morrow/HarperCollins, New York, 2003; 552 pages, ISBN 0060537639, hardcover, $27.95. [An expanded paperback edition will soon be available.]

Ancient maps and charts, first-hand accounts of voyages of discovery, sunken ships, inscribed markers and relics -- these are among the data used to argue that the Chinese explored and mapped most of the world before Europeans set sail. A retired commander in the Royal Navy, Mr. Menzies' passion is old maps and charts, and anomalies he found in pre-Columbian European maps sparked his research.

Written like a detective story, the book attempts to reconstruct the voyage undertaken between 1421 and 1423 by an immense Chinese fleet under Admiral Zheng He, with capital treasure ships 480 feet long and 180 feet wide. His mission in part was to travel to "the end of the earth to collect tribute from the barbarians beyond the seas" (p. 75) and bring them into the Chinese tribute system, and to prospect for minerals, search for useful plants, take astronomical observations, make accurate maps, and determine a way to navigate in the southern hemisphere. 1421 sets out the evidence for the author's reconstruction of the course of this sixth and last great voyage.
