Majlis Anugerah Perkhidmatan Cemerlang Kapit 2012

-
Pengarah Pelajaran Sarawak, Pegawai Pelajaran Kapit & Top Slave.
Today, I officially received my Anugerah Perkhidmatan Cemerlang award certificate. It was presented to me by the Pengarah Pelajaran Sarawak @ the head teacher of the state on behalf of the ministry for years of excellent service in the interiors.
I was very surprised the pengarah/director came all the way to Kapit in the flesh to present the awards. Previous Pengarahs never really bothered. They usually sent representatives. For this, I commend him & I appreciate the effort he took to come all the way. I hope that he will be able to steer our state to greater heights.

What is APC?
"penghargaan kerajaan kepada Anggota Perkhidmatan Awam yang telah memberi perkhidmatan yang cemerlang. Perkhidmatan cemerlang adalah perkhidmatan yang diberikan oleh seseorang APA yang mutu atau penghasilannya melebihi daripada keperluan tanggungjawab biasa bagi jawatannya."

SMK Katibas Laureates with Principal
This award is dedicated to my awesome team in school who helped me do so much in such a short time.You deserve a part of this.
I'll get you guys a simple gift from my RM1k reward. You deserve my appreciation & more. Let's build on this & reach greater heights together. Thank you for accepting my leadership. I will try to lead you in the right direction as long as you will have me.
The leeches who did not help me but want a piece of my pie can kiss my ash. Even if I give you a piece of my pie, you wouldn't help me anyway so go & earn your own award.

I am not boasting when I say that I deserve this award. It vindicates the struggles & sacrifices I have made as well as the recognition & accreditation I've attained for the school.
This marks the dawn of a new era.
After much reflection & self-searching, I have decided on a new direction in my career & I will pursue it as far as I can go.
I will share my plans here in due time. Will give it time to settle & mature first.

      Most of the time it is because some senior teachers are so mediocre they depend on this award. People like us can aim higher. Besides, there are plenty of awards out there for teachers & the criteria may not be as high as we think.

    Congats!!

    teachers in my school were talking about this last 2 days when I asked 'how do we measure people for this award?'.

    one of the senior teacher answered dismissively:' yang penting cikgu baru macam awak takkan dapat la. tunggu la dalam 15 tahun lagi ke. bagi la peluang kitorang dapat dulu.'

    i was like............. !@$#&#&!(#^&!(

    then I simply said, 'oh. ok.'

    sigh.....

      For people with half a brain like these, just agree with what they say & remember to take any future comments with a pinch of salt, you have your own principles & you should stick with them.

      Ultimately, the principal decides. Let him do it. I was really outstanding in my school so if I did not get it, people will ask questions.
      One should put oneself in such a strategic position. Remember outstanding doesn't mean slugging at donkey work. It does mean discipline, passion & strategy.

      Anyway, we're not doing what we're doing for awards or recognition. We're doing what we're doing because we know it's good & we want to achieve something.
      Dont be discouraged. You have great potential. Never forget that.

What To Do When Your Unifi Service Suddenly Drops

- Post a Comment

After finally putting my kid to sleep, I was about to settle into the couch with my wife & stream a movie, when my Unifi fiber optic internet connection suddenly dropped. When it didn't come back after 1 hour, I realized that I had to do something. Considering that I pay my bills promptly every month, it must be a technical issue. Here's what I did to fix the problem. It look me less than 20 minutes.


1. First, I checked my modem (the white machine). I checked the lights on the modem. When the modem is functioning properly, lights will be on for POWER, PON, LAN1 & TEL1. If the red light for LOS lights up, call 100 to resolve the issue. Also, I made sure that all the wire connections were tight.


2. Next, I checked my router (the black machine). Again, I checked the lights. When the router is functioning properly, lights will be on for POWER, GLOBE, WIFI, LAN1. My POWER light was blinking, so that means that there was no internet connection. Again, I made sure that all th…

Understanding The New SPM (2021) English 1119 Paper Format

- Post a Comment

I'm sure you've seen the above being circulated on the internet. But, what does it mean? How does this paper compare to the current SPM paper for English? Do we have to change our testing practices in Form 4?

At this moment, information is sparse despite great public interest. As the head of the English panel at my school, my Form 4 colleagues will come to me for what to do & parents will ask me what this is about. Until we have very specific instructions from the ministry, this is what I will be telling my colleagues & parents based on the limited amount of information available to me from my intimate experience with the current SPM paper & second-hand information about the PT3 English paper.

Let me know if I got anything wrong or if you have more detailed information.

Nak Minta Puji, Kalau Tak Gaji Dipotong

- Post a Comment

Cikgu sengaja post gambar buat kerja nak minta puji. Kalau tidak sesetengah kalangan masyarakat nak gaji cikgu dipotong. Kata kami tak buat kerja & macam-macam fitnah. 🤷🏽‍♂️
Cikgu berikan sedikit gambaran tentang apa yang para guru seMalaysia buat untuk pembukaan semula sekolah. Bilangan kelas bertambah sebab bilangan murid setiap kelas dihadkan jadi kelas cikgu dipindahkan ke bengkel bahasa. 👌🏽
Awal pagi sudah cikgu sampai di sekolah.  Kerusi meja berlebihan disusun sampai ke langit di sudut belakang bengkel, lantai disapu, meja disusun dengan jarak 1 meter, & pintu keluar/masuk dilabelkan dengan jelas. 💪🏽
Notis tentang keselamatan diri waktu pandemik COVID19 juga dipaparkan. Kemudian, buku teks yang tertinggal dalam kelas diikat & disimpan dengan baik. 👍🏽
Harapan cikgu adalah murid-murid yang dikasihi cepat-cepat kembali ke sekolah selepas pembukaan diumumkan. Tak sabar cikgu nak menjenguk wajah ceria anda & bertanya kenapa tak layan cikgu waktu pembelajaran seca…

If you are not from the Kapit/Song/Belaga region, chances are you will not be familiar with the schedules of the express boat which are totally essential for travel.
And it gets really frustrating when you want to plan your journey & all you can rely on is the memory of a local who may or may not be accurate.
I sifted through a lot of gunk on the internet before I found a probably reliable schedule at sarawaknews.blogspot.com.

I've printed it out & pasted it on my wall.
Here's a copy of the schedule for your reference.
