Meeting the Man

Yeah i know it has been quite a while since my last entry. Just would like to continue where i have left off. Not long after our presentation at the Parliament House to a group of very high profile people and managed to sell the idea and concept, we got to see 'the Man". I came early just to ensure i get to the building that i thought was part of the Islamic Museum. It is just that i was a bit not dressed up to the occasion, but that secondary.

The Man is none other than The Father of Modern Malaysia - Tun Mahathir. Never in my wildest dream to sit and discuss with the man eye to eye. But the topic of discussion which is hot at the moment overwhelms the awe of sitting with him. Indeed it is about IC Citizen. We presented the idea, objective and concept of which he agrees. But one thing that caught my attention was when Tun asked about how do one teach 'ethics'? The same concern that i have discussed on my last blog entry. When i mentioned Case Study as the way...he agrees. I said to myself...wow exactly how i think it should be thus again reconfirmed my earlier hunch. Again i thought...this is my research framework!

Sharing our thoughts with Tun, definitely makes my day!

Major ethical dilemma of the Web and the Internet

A euphoria of discussionss was in the local news when everyone start talking about the need to filter of phonographic sites. Dr M in his blog discussion pushed the idea of filtering, saying now is the 'appropriate time' since the inception MSC and decree declaration of filter-free Internet for Malaysia. A front page news on some newspapers and main stories in major digital media. Comments from all quarters especially the Ministers and Deputy Ministers in agreement.

All this became a sitting target for PSSB new found arsenal to fire home its IC Citizen training and certification bullets. What a great timing. The endorsement form our Parliament House presentation earlier will put the 1Citizen program into the limelight.

But today Charles I. Cragg in "Because Wisdom Can't be Told" (Harvard Alumni Bullettin, October 19, 1940) gave me a lease of life in confirming the correct approach and direction of using case study in designing and developing the training module of IC Citizen. Now i have the Theoretical Ethical Framework and the right methodology.

As Cragg puts it;

"The case system, properly used, initiates students into the ways of independent thought and responsible judgment. It faces them with situations which are not hypothetical but real. It places them in the active role, open to criticism from all sides. It puts the burden of understanding and judgment upon them. It provides them the occasion to deal constructively with their contemporaries and their elders"

I am happy!

iCITIZEN in Macau

Hi again! I didn't realize that i have not been updating my blog since when. My last post was about my Bali Trip with the boys. So many things have happened and i jot it down most in my Twitter and Facebook.

iCitizen project has been wonderful, but very taxing on me and my team. Finally we got something going on a global basis, our very own Certification and content for the world.

I was at Certiports APAC Meeting in Macau last March, and had wonderful time meeting the people and had the opportunity to present the concept and idea to the world. The feedback has been outstanding!
Here we come WORLD

AIM 2010

I am not so much into music, but yesterday's AIM 2010 caught my eyes and attention...of course due to Yuna, Aizat and Faizal Tahir...plus the great Afdlin & Co and the band. The rest are just side shows. Here's a tribute to the best song of the year!
