Top 50 gorgeous people by SPH Magazine

Posted by Hazman Aziz On November - 22 - 20091 COMMENT

A good friend of mine, Lili Nassir is selected to be one of the top 50 gorgeous people by SPH Magazine (http://www.female50gp.com/2009/).

Lili is a great gal. She is studying with me in the Graduate school in Singapore, major in Mass Communication, while I am from the Information Studies (for the update on me, LOL). To Lili, as I know her personally, being gorgeous is not only about looks per se. How you view life and expand what has been bestowed to you in doing great things, contributes that ‘gorgeous’ness.

And, I guess this is true for her. She is a civil servant, making sure that all the paramedics on the ground, equipped with their knowledge and to save life and attend emergency as efficient and effective. Apart from that, this lady loves to read, and she forms a book club called Le lecteur Book Club (http://www.facebook.com/le.lecteur), sharing and spread literacy with the online community.

We need your votes for Lili Nassir http://www.female50gp.com/2009/vote.php. And Lili’s blog can be found on this link: http://www.female50gp.com/2009/blog/author/lili/. And, her interviewed video can be found on this url: http://www.razor.tv/site/servlet/segment/main/lifestyle/38078.html

Common, let’s give our vote to her.

Cheers,
Hazman Aziz

Lili: All the best! You go girl!

Music and the Malay Community

Posted by Hazman Aziz On November - 19 - 2009Comments Off

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.

Mafia Wars

In the news …

Oct. 23 (Bloomberg) — Facebook Inc. is tapping virtual farmers, mafia dons and online pets to generate cash from the social-networking Web site’s 300 million users.

The company is testing a payment system to gain a cut each time an online-game player buys a digital tractor, weapon or hat on the site. That would give Facebook a piece of the hundreds of millions of dollars that are being pulled in by Zynga Inc., creator of “Farmville” and “Mafia Wars,” and Playfish Inc., maker of “Pet Society.” The social-games market will almost triple to $2 billion by 2012, estimates ThinkEquity LLC.

Hazman Aziz’s Nur Kasih Spoof Opening Show

Posted by Hazman Aziz On September - 30 - 2009Comments Off

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.
