The Road Less Travelled: The Misunderstood Religion
http://mattmarzuki.blogspot.com/2008/05/misunderstood-religion.html
We Malaysians are unique in the sense that we live in a multiracial society comprising mainly Malays, Chinese and Indian as well as minority races from Sabah and Sarawak. This was brought about by the influx of immigrants from China and India during the British colonial times where they brought in to work on the mines and estates. What you may ask, is causing this rift? Which means 'The Trustworthy'. However, at the time Mecca was a metropolitan city and a well-known centre for trade. As victim o...I bel...

The Road Less Travelled: Point to Ponder on a Monday Afternoon
http://mattmarzuki.blogspot.com/2008/06/point-to-ponder-on-monday-afternoon.html
Point to Ponder on a Monday Afternoon. Ideas are free. Anyone can come up with one. A great idea is just that. An idea. Those who turn ideas into reality are deemed to have walked the walk or walked the talk. Aristotle’s followers are said to have discussed philosophy while walking about with him—hence their name: “peripatetics.” I suppose they could be have been said to “walk the talk.”. Thank you for your birthday wishes. Just wondering how you found me. hahaha. Well, walk the talk huh? Thanks for ur c...

The Road Less Travelled: April 2008
http://mattmarzuki.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
I read with interest Hannah Yeoh's blog entry on Angsana Flats in Subang Jaya. For those who didn't know, Hannah Yeoh is one of the new generation of young MPs who got elected in the recent General Elections. She is representing Subang Jaya and she is only 29. The entry was about her visit to Angsana Flats (you can read about it at her blog here. Whenever we feel like complaining, she says to count your blessings. Just compare ourselves to the plight of the Angsana Flats residence. After reading ...6 for...

The Road Less Travelled: Of Corporate Slaves and Entrepreneurs
http://mattmarzuki.blogspot.com/2008/05/of-corporate-slaves-and-entrepreneurs.html
Of Corporate Slaves and Entrepreneurs. There are two types of employment. The employee and the employer/self-employed. Salaried men and business owners. Slaves and slave drivers, or in my case, a corporate slave with many levels of slave drivers above my head. What an experience it was. What does it feel like being an employee? Well, if that's the case, then are we no different from the Egyptian slaves who were trained to build the pyramids? The colonial empire was very smart. They built great univer...

The Road Less Travelled: Work Life Balance
http://mattmarzuki.blogspot.com/2008/04/work-life-balance.html
Work pressures, closing deadlines and deal-making opportunities often eat into our work life balance and often people readily forgo their time for leisure to satisfy their bosses or clients. Fast forward ten years, here I am in a property industry, having the same dilemma of keeping the work life balance right and pleasing my superiors at the same time. You know what? Now I can say, sod it! I do have life after work so if you want me to stay back, you gotta pay me! So, what about you? Tell me abt it :p.

The Road Less Travelled: The Secret
http://mattmarzuki.blogspot.com/2008/04/secret.html
Lately I've been feeling rather down. Actually I've been feeling this for quite sometime already, but it seemed to have gotten worse in recent months. I suppose I could say that I'm depressed. I think I do, although I may not show it. Why you'd say, am I feeling depressed? When can I be free of debt? Where is my dream car? Anyway, what I can tell you about The Secret is this. It's about The Law of Attraction, the power to attract the things you like or the things you hate by using your thoughts. ...Witho...

The Road Less Travelled: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
http://mattmarzuki.blogspot.com/2008/04/corporate-social-responsibility-csr.html
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). I am still up and awake at wee hours in the morning. I took the drowsy flu pill earlier this evening but the effect must have worn out since I'm not that sleepy anymore, and like what most people do nowadays when they couldn't sleep, I surf the internet. Philips' core belief is sustainability and this is reflected in what they do and the products they produce. Now, I'm sure you've seen those energy-saving light bulbs that Philips is so famous for. Apparently...Some ...
