Interesting! Watching these boys strumming their guitars and sings aloud, really inspire me to create some new in 2010. A project that not many Malay scholar won’t really want to start off, due to the technology investment. Maybe, I should try and give a shot to this project and label it as one of my corporate social responsibility (CSR). The reason why I want to adopt this CSR approach is due that my studies is actually funding using the community tax. I guess it is time to give back to the community.

How does Hazman going to deliver this?

Try visit to this site: Music Australia – Australia’s Music: Online, in Time (http://www.musicaustralia.org/).

What if Hazman Aziz builds Music Malay, under the wings of Project Juffri Supa’at.com. This would be an interesting wing for Juffri Supa’at. One of my main aims is to build Perpustakaan Juffri Supa’at, a Malay collection library, dedicated to the works of Juffri Supa’at towards building Malay Collections in the Library Science industry. Plus, this digital library will embrace Web 2.0 elements. One of the wings, in this library, I am going to build a music element that covers biography of known Malay musician, as well the one with are not fame yet.

Another elements, I am thinking of SOPAC (http://thesocialopac.net/). But, the backend, I need to figure it out well. Anyway, hopefully, I am able to create a Camerata of New Media in this industry.

Yes, I am a librarian. But, maybe I am a different types of librarian many of you would think and collaborate with. Nur Kasih is what I am always been seeking in this industry. Nur Kasih is a Malay/Arab word, which means:

Nur = Light & Kasih means Care, Love and Passion.

I tossed this word around my mind for the past few days recaps pass few years what has actually happening to my life, career, studies and even friends around me. Dean Ali shows and shares me with this drama Nur Kasih, which can be access at this url: http://www.tv3.com.my/nurkasih/sinopsis.asp.

Nur Kasih is a local Malaysia production, sharing a story of two brothers, Aidil and Adam, who shares an interesting life towards their growing up period. Adam’s life reminds me of (i) why I headed Australia in 2004, (ii) why I returned back to Singapore in 2006, (iii) why I failed in my life in October 2008, and (iv) why i picked up back myself in February 2009.

The reasons is, “I am a librarian, who works and touches people’s life with my online social activities by creating resources that gives their access  to create a social knowledge concierge.”

And, this is the scholarly work that I am good in and the expert with the mechanics of social engineering. Well, enjoy the spoof opening, if you need to reach me or getting my consultancy services in your work, here are some links that you might want to check out.

A lot of us did not really recognise that Ramadan is also can be label as a the month of the knowledge society. Within this month, a number of historical events has happened across every society, just for the piece of knowledge to be share and mobilised. I used to share a piece of entry in this blog about, “Ramadan Builds Resilient Youths.”

A number of us were actually unaware of a number of events of Ramadan that have happened. Most of all the Kitab of Allah (Lord) came down to man during this holy month. From Kitab that was given to Prophet Moses, Prophet David and Prophet Isa all came coincidentally in the month of Ramadan and also in a sequential date, starting from the 8th or 9th Ramadan. This is an act of knowledge mobilisation from Lord to his slaves.

Frankly, I don’t have the hard facts on this to argue or justify that these dates are correct. But the act between the first mobilisation of knowledge marks a great symbol in the history of society. A simple book (Kitab) which was given to us, was documented and till today we are still referring and reading it as a life and faith reference. If any of you guys happened to read this posting and awareness what I am trying to justify (or even have the dates of event such as when the Kitab are brought down), please share it with me.

So far, as a Muslim, Laylat al-Qadr literally the “Night of Decrees” or “Night of Measures”, is the anniversary of two very important dates in Islam that occurred in the month of Ramadan. This is one events that I have been hearing and aware off since I was a youth.

Muslims believe that it was the night in which the Qur’an was revealed from God. The Qur’an is one of the holy Kitab and the last Kitab that was given to man. The Qur’an was revealed over many years to the Prophet. That is Prophet Mohammad, and no other Prophet after him.

Muslims believe that any acts of worship undertaken on this night are rewarded in multiple thousands in comparison to the same act of worship done on any other day. There are two schools of thought on date of this event. Some Muslims are of the opinion that it lands on the 27th night of Ramadan while others believe that it may be any one of the last odd nights.

What actually happen on this “Night of Measures” was a miracle and some even said, it was a glimpse of the future (the World today). Prophet flew from Mecca to Jerusalem, within 1 single night, in a transport. Today, we are also able to do that. And, He was lifted up to the sky. Today, we are also able to do that. In terms of measuring the knowledge mobilisation here, many theories can be drive.

• Can human be transported one city to another in less than a night?
• What about from earth to the sky?
• The knowledge that he attained from Lord and pass back to human?

All of these are being discuss through exploitation of knowledge. Knowledge that is documented and passed from one generation to another, puting the information still in tact. Plus a strong justification from the holy book. If we were to match in again in the theory, I don’t see why Ramadan unable to “Builds Resilient Youths.”

Truly, the youths are the hope for the future. Their success would mean success for us all, and should they not succeed, it also means we all do not succeed.

Revently a Youth Minister shares this note in one of the social site describing on a event, “… It’s not just a matter of medals. Every athlete represents a story of hope, determination, guts, effort and sacrifice in a very real way. Win or lose, I have not seen a single athlete look beaten or sorry for herself.”

If we were to related these elements (1) youth, (ii) knowledge, (iii) hope, (iv) determination (v) guts (vi) effort and (v) sacrifice, it actually build the foundation of a knowledge mobilisation. Wow, this is great. Maybe, I will trying to proof this in one of my thesis theory where these actually play a part to the perceived of useful and perceive ease of use in the concept of knowledge mobilisation, where desirability will be the results.

Well for now, I rest assure everything first in my faith. Tomorrow will a great day to start.
