I’ll be coming back to Malaysia from Brisbane on Monday morning 31st March 2009. Praying I’ll have enough energy to run Marketing replacement class on the same day in the evening 7.30pm. Hope you guys could pray for me and the other students and staffs a SAVE and EASY journey to and from Brisbane. We will be visiting the Ideas Festival organised by the State of Queensland, Australia.

I really hope that we will be able to bring something useful back to UniKL after visiting this program in Australia. The target is for UniKL to organise a similar program at national level in the near future. We will be going there together with our partner for this program: MACRI (please click the link to read more about the join collaboration program with MACRI - Malaysian Association of Creativity & Innovation). See you guys in one week. Adios!

P/s: Please do not forget to prepare for the test also ya!

UniKL won CHEM-E-Car Competition 2009

Thursday, March 12th, 2009

The 4th Chem-E-Car Competition 2009 organised by the Institution of Engineers Malaysia (IEM) saw University Kuala Lumpur Institute of Chemical and Bioengineering Technology (UniKL MICET) seized the first place by its invention of MICET-E Car. This annual competition was held on March 5, 2009 at UniKL MICET, Taboh Naning, Melaka. As a co-host, UniKL was proud to take part in this national competition as an effort to promote the discipline of chemical engineering. This competition is a positive platform for chemical engineering undergraduates to show their creativity and innovativeness in utilizing their knowledge.

Seven local universities participated in this competition including UniKL. These universities namely Universiti Putra Malaysia, Universiti Malaya, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Universiti Teknikal MARA and Universiti Teknologi Petronas. YB. Dato’ Noh bin Haji Omar, Minister of Entrepreneur and Co-operative Development (MeCD), was represented by the Chairman of UniKL Board of Directors, YBhg. Dato’ Haji Mohamad Rais Haji Zainuddin, Chairman, Board of Directors UniKL, in the officiating ceremony.

The officiating speech highlighted MeCD’s commitment in giving continuous support for efforts taken by institutions to involved students from higher learning institutions (IPTA/IPTS) in events that will develop their creativity and innovativeness. According to the Ministry, this efforts are vital due to the impending depletion of natural resources. Thus, the Ministry urged the younger generation to apply their knowledge to the highest peak in researching and producing new resources and invention for alternative fuel. Events such as this will enable students to commercialise their invention.

This competition was organised and sponsored by IEM since 2005. IEM will reward the winning team of CHEM-E-CAR car competition by sponsoring them to the upcoming 8th World Chemical Engineering Congress which will commence in August, 2009 at Montreal, Canada. This particular event is the most anticipated competition in chemical engineering.

Urgent announcement to Principles of Marketing (PSB 22503) students

Saturday, March 7th, 2009

principles-of-marketingI’ve uploaded new Course Schedule and Course Outline plus new Course Notes to Principles of Marketing (PSB 22503) download section. The new schedule is arranged based on the new situation faced by the January 2009 academic calendar. There are 4 public holidays that falls on Monday thus affected our classes. On top of that other administrative and project commitments also had forced me to further reschedule the classes.

Please download all the relevant files (the schedule, outline and notes) prior to our classes which is SCHEDULE TO BE HELD THIS COMING TUESDAY (10/3/2009) 7.30pm - 9.30pm as discussed before. We really need to discuss the viability of the schedule before  implementing it further. I’m really sorry for the inconvenience caused but as I’ve told you before we didn’t have much choices accept to replace the missing classes. I hope you can bear with me. If I can ‘belanja you all makan‘ to make-up to this situation, I’ll be very happy to do it, but you guys have to pay yourselves lah eh… he he :-).

P/s: Please notice that I’ve also made some rearrangement of the lecture notes. The file name is now arranged according to the text book chapter number and I’ve uploaded all chapters to this website even tough not all chapters will be covered in the syllabus as mentioned in the course outline. I’ll explain this further in the class.

Hey guys, it’s Upin and Ipin at UniKL

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

Posted by: Ida Mandarin, Les’ Copaque

Setelah membuat “Sergahan” di UNISEL Shah Alam, kami berangkat ke UNIKL pula. Kami tiba di UNIKL dalam jam 3 p.m. Keadaan di lobby UNIKL agak suram pada awalnya. Mereka semua tidak tahu bahawa Upin & Ipin bakal menyergah mereka. Tapi ada juga pelajar yang berbisik membuat andaian sesama sendiri, tertanya-tanya mengapakah ada krew Les’ Copaque berada di kawasan kampus mereka.

Lihatlah betapa hebatnya sambutan di UNIKL. Ramai di antara mereka tidak jadi hendak pulang sebaik sahaja melihat maskot muncul di kawasan lobby.

Apabila maskot muncul di perkarangan lobby UNIKL, para pelajar UNIKL semuanya terkejut. Ada juga yang menjerit dengan fanatik-Upin! Ipin! Tak sangka begitu ramai peminat Upin & Ipin di UNIKL ini.

En. Safwan dan Cik Idaman memberi kuiz filem Geng : Pengembaraan Bermula dan Upin & Ipin. Mahasiswa dan mahasiswi UNIKL berebut-rebut untuk mendapatkan pelekat kereta Geng…

Sementara menunggu kemunculan maskot buat kali kedua, En. Safwan dan penulis sempat membuat sesi kuiz Upin & Ipin. Menarik sungguh melihat gelagat warga UNIKL, bukan sahaja pelajar, malah ada juga staf yang cuba untuk menjawab soalan. Ada juga pelajar yang tidak mahu beralah semata-mata untuk mendapatkan pelekat kereta Geng.

Kami ingin mengucapkan setinggi-tinggi penghargaan kepada pihak UNIKL yang membenarkan kami untuk menjayakan program “Sergahan Upin & Ipin” ini. Kepada mereka yang masih lagi belum menonton filem Geng : Pengembaraan Bermula, cepat-cepat dapatkan tiket dan bawa kawan, keluarga, mahupun jiran untuk menonton beramai-ramai. Rugi kalau tak tengok!
