Bubble 12-Corruption Rotting the Construction Industry

Caution of the corruption danger...... This is quite a heavy and serious topic from me.... no pictures.....only text....hope not toooo boring....

Introduction

The rapid growth of Malaysia Construction Industry imposes demand of a wide range of infrastructure works, housing development, urban renewal, and reclamation. Due to the booming growth momentum, the problem of corruption is still occurs. The problems are the defects and maintenance, slope failure, abandoned projects, the lack of competencies in project management and construction process management, poor quality culture and system.

Issue
The issue arises when there are defects and maintenance failures. The projects that involve the new Jalan Duta Court, Putrajaya Immigration Complex and Putrajaya slope collapse. Do these problems trigger our mind that there are corruptions within these projects? It may be a false assault to these projects but corruptions do happen in our construction industry. It is due to the fact that corruption is a sensitive and complex issue. Besides, the scale of corruption in nature is difficult to establish.

Explanation

Needless to say, corruption that happens truly, madly, deeply has intruded within the industry. Corruption not only eats your money but also leads to poor quality of construction works. It is more critical when defects can be identified in the early stage and there will be extra budget and time. It eventually leads to higher construction cost. The reputation of company that involve will also be affected due to the corruption happened.

Corruption leads to the poverty of the nation. In achieving civilization we actually are corrupting each other. We do corrupting the nation by bribery, fraud, voluntary or forces and concealment of bribery. These act that leads to corruption in actual fact rotting the construction industry. Corruption is a disadvantage to the developing countries as the project gain unnecessary, defective, unsuitable overprices or which to operate and maintain. Corruption can disadvantage on individual directors as resulting criminal prosecution, fines, imprisonment, the loss of professional status and loss of employment.
There is no use of rapid growth in the construction industry if corruption is still happened.

Attending the talk on ‘Rasuah’ by Badan Pencegah Rasuah on Monday, February 18, 2008 quoted that if there is a lot of crime happening that means there is a lot of bribery. What it is meant is that bribery is like the fingerprint that left by the criminal that commits the crime, but yet the scale of corruption is very hard to establish and it is also a sensitive issue to be discussed.

There will always be lack of competencies in project management and construction process management. The poor quality and system of construction will definitely gives defective effect to the project outcome. Delays are also significant to corruption. This will eventually consume time to running projects. Besides, it also gives the most consequence to the user of the project. Lateness lessens productivity. Hence, the output is not in order and gives economic damage to the nation.

The commonly practice of corruption during Planning and Design Phase, Pre-qualification and Tendering Phase, Project Execution Phase and during Operation and Maintenance Phase resulting in wastage of tender expenses, tendering uncertainty, increase project cost, blackmail, fines, blacklisting and reputation risk. In any of these phases corruption happens with different approaches. Corruption may happen without us noticing it. The process from obtaining a project to the completion of the project has a lot of opportunities to be corrupt. This is due to the irresponsible party that wants to gain more profits from each of the project phases. Due to the fact project price will be inflated.

Solution

Corruption is like a virus that rots the construction industry. By preventing corruption, is as though implanting antivirus and leaves safe environment to us and the surrounding. Sigh of people who live in corruption will not help the construction industry at all. The corruption can be prevented starting from an individual that involve in a project. If the person has the responsibility towards other people and other living things, this problem can be diminish gradually and leads to free corruption world. Imagine living with no corruption on this earth, serenity and peaceful of our environment will be gain. Be truthful to ourselves in implementing projects, hence it will guide to a better living.

Bubble 11- Archaeo-tourism

The idea of promoting Archaeo-tourism....interesting !!!

derived from archaeology for promoting it to everyone.

Bubble 10-Condom in the City- Torre Agbar

Introduction

This picture is taken from BUTTERFLY EYE VIEW. The topic sounds horny..... What is your perception of this this creature?... Truly from me .... it looks horny. There is a sudden of a creature that has emerge in a city....

Issue
No issue.... is just that it reflected how horny this architect can be......


Explanation
The true story is.... Torre Agbar..a magnificent skyscraper.. in Barcelona. It was designed by a French Architect Jean Nouvel in association with the Spanish firm b720 Arquitectos... and this building is owned by Agbar Group.....

Well the idea got from metaphor inspiration...the Montserrat... mountain near Barcelona...and by the shape of a geyser rising into the air.When you look at it... the idea of the geyser is almost there. i guess.



On the right is the picture of Montserrat. the picture taken from Wikipedia... The purpose is to show the comparison between inspiration and realization...When a building inspired by metaphor.... usually hard to describe by the public. Only the architect knows about what it is all about...

Do you really think that it is truly and inspiration... Maybe it is just an idea pop up from the architect's head one morning and than try to win the competition by relating something local...The architect giving and letting his art piece so abstract ..... and hard to interpret.....

That is what always happen ... Well its true when the Maybank tower in Kuala Lumpur is a famous metaphor design that people relates it with 'Keris' (traditional weapon) designed by Hijaz Kasturi famous amous Malaysian Architect... Actually the building did not related to any KERIS, but when people start to relate to it... than the Keris inspiration came in... after the form has been finalised. It was not intended by the architect at all.... information i got from Hijaz Kasturi himself that came to our lecture series in UiTM.


Issue of designing skyscraper is not only by sculpting the sky... it also relates to the environment such as heat gain by reflection on the glass. thus once more one factor of increasing heat to the earth.... How about maintenance issue.... how hard to polish the glasses of the whole building. Look at the detail of Torre Agbar itself... The idea of this building is to give vast reflection of illuminating coloured lights at night..... The effect during the day is so pixelated.. Alright it achieved the geiser inspiration.... But practicality of cleaning?


Designing a buiding is not just aesthetic....do not care about the design looks like a 'condom' in the city but for me a building is a man made ecosystem... we need to relates and assimilate the building with the surrounding.... Torre Agbar implemented the idea of a good ventilated double wall which the technology gives the building stability. How? the ventilated wall decreases the wind load that crosses through the building... Thus it gives stability to the building....

Solution
There are a lot of aspects to adore this building. even though first perception failed Get to know the building better. such as. the aspects.of.services, maintenance, aesthetic, and technology implementd, but the practicality to clean each glass for me is still ridiculous. Apart from that I still admit The 'Condom' detailing is magnificent.

I played it by ear.... Hope not to bad......

Bubble 8-School of Thieves-Barcelona

Introduction
What do you feel when suddenly there are people taking your stuff without telling you. Well that is to soft of giving words for that kind of activity... or maybe stealing .... thieving.... shoplifting... burglary... or robbery... .The consequence is too much.. to much up to the result of death...


Definition

The 'school of thieves' got from stories and own experience while traveling in Barcelona, Spain. They are thieves with trained stealing skills. I was on our architectural Europe Trip 2, and there were two occurrence of theft during our trip and the best part is it was on the same day.

Issue

Nobody likes to be robed especially when the thieves put on innocent faces

Explanation

La Rambla :the crime scene

1. My colleague's handbag was robed. She did not realised that someone has put their hand inside her bag. Subsequently her handbag was pressed under her armpit but more towards the back of her body. So it was easier for the thieves. She lost her purse with a few Euro and RM200. Luckily you cannot change Malaysian Dollar (Ringgit Malaysia) in spain. But of couse all her identification card were lost. She did a police report
2. The second time happended in front of my eyes. It was just a few hours we checked in the hostel.It began when,we were heading towards the staircase out from the Metro, my friend felt that sombody has taken his wallet from his TIGHT POCKET JEANS... He suddenly grab that guy , encircle the thief with his hands againts the wall.

" Give back my wallet" 3 X i guesss and we were watching the scene and our heart throbing like hell.

The thief made a very innocent face and act like his not involve. He handed up his hands and showed to us that he did not took it. My friend felt guilty of assaulting him. He left without us suspected anything .

But you know what, my friend's wallet was on the floor where the thief left.It was not just that.... do not feel guilty..... the thief was not alone.we saw the same guy with his so called girlfriend in the Metro when we went for next train interchange.Felt like to give my fist at this couple even though i knew it wont be that powerfull..We thought they were hand in hand but Totally not alone.

We started to analysed the stituation, it was not just two of them, they were in group( 3 people). This was our analysis. At the crime scene there were a guy took the wallet from my friend's pocket. then he passed it on the second guy who my friend encircle towards the wall. Thirdly the girl that act as her girlfriend which came for maybe backup...

This is not by chance or by an accident but by plan and skill that the 'school of thieves' had thought them.... UUUUhhhhh felt so angry... our trip almost not enjoyable. Extra precaution need to be taken... It was not relaxed at all. our eye did not thrust anybody even with an innocent face.Besides we were the most attractive troop in town.













Solution

Do not be so attractive when you are in the foreign country especially which does not have the same hair and eye colour.Do not thrust innocent faces during travelling sometimes they are the king of thieves without you know it........ So Watch OUT

Bubble 7-Jalan P. Ramlee

Introduction

P. Ramlee... a name that cannot be forget up till today.He is so synonym with Malaysia's entertainment industry. His achievement is so remarkable, up to the extent of Jalan (Street) Parry near to KLCC is named after him;Jalan(Street) P.Ramlee. He is an actor, singer, song writer, and director.... He contributed a lot in the Malaysian entertainment industry....He is a real entertainer..... Even a small kid age 6 years old knows about him...Does not mind which year they are born, but up till today peoples still watching and listening to his art pieces..

Issue

Jalan P. Ramlee being abused?



Explanation

Regarding this issue.. As what you know P. Ramlee a man with passion in his career..Thus, by using his name and fame, we must reflect his ability in entertaining people all these years....

Humming his songs will not make you bored... Humming with techno or disco songs on the road name after him....will actually does not turn evergreen i guess...

If you have been to Jalan P. Ramlee,.... what can you see and appreciate? Well, all these years Jalan P. Ramlee has been used as entertainment spot for night clubs, discos, foreign restaurants and a very successful plus entertaining pedestrian pathway, for them who do not enter these clubs.

For me this is sad. All these years we praised P. Ramlee's talent.... this is not how we appreciate him. The road fill with colorful neon lights at nights.. filling up with people socializing and end up with them who throw up due to intoxicated with alcohol.... Maybe, that is how we appreciate P. Ramlee's road!!!

I do not know since when all these bars pop up along the road. The best thing is it is side by side. Well Look at the bright side... with all these bars.. the tourists especially the foreigners love this spot. The sketch that i have made shows how near Jalan P. Ramlee to KLCC(Coloured with blue) and Yes... besides, they can hang out here and appreciate malaysia's climate....(hot and humid)till late at night.They accelerate Malaysian economy. Make malaysia proud and well known tooo.

Solution

I can not ask the Malaysian to band this road... We are multicultural and other races and religion have rights too. Do not relocate Jalan P. Ramlee, pass is pass but the abuse and mistaken development on Jalan P Ramlee should not be repeated.

Bubble 5-Revenge from JEW?

Introduction

I am actually browsing for pictures while i am in Paris during our architectural Europe Trip II 2007. I wanted to post another topic but this picture struck me and made me questioned....Is it a revenge from the Jew that the war happen between Palestine and Israel? Well the picture was taken in Jewish Museum in Berlin. The museum was designed by Daniel Libeskind... What he wanted to portray is actually the sufferings that the Jews had during world war 2. The question came to me again that, is this the answer of why they commit war to Palestine?


Issue

Everybody hates sufferings .... Not even everybody but anybody....


Explanation

Last night i was doing my lecture notes on chemistry and wanted to find about Aufbau Precess..
While browsing the internet instead of Aufbau process i founded 'Aufbau' . Aufbau is a journal for the Jews all over the world that speaks German. The journal was founded in 1934.The publication is published in New York till 2004. Up to today it is published in Zurich. The original purpose is to include helpful facts for the Jewish refugees that was founded by German Jewish Club.

The knowledge is spread all over the world since 1934... Vengeance could be built since then......I do not know whether it is appropriate to say that , but anything could have happened. But why must they commit the war towards the Palestinians... If they knew that they suffered before why must they hurt or kill someone else. They are also humans.

The interior of the museum already shows that they (Jew) suffered... they are stuck under the rubble of blocks..Must the Palestinians do the same thing...which they suffered during the war and they build a museum out of it ?...

Below is the comparison of sufferings....the picture of the little boy was taken in the internet... a tribute to the photographer.... Do compare... the situation is similar...


















Solution

This museum shows world need peace... not revenge.
