It is my area of research. So maybe that's make me very concern about this matter. But who else out there do recognize this is a public health problem in Malaysia. The drivers, the riders...they don't care about whatever the slogan is when they started the engine. That's true and that's is human nature.
Back to my previous presentation and when I got feedback from a guy from Tokyo University. He claimed that attitude is hard to change ~ The only way to stop the behaviors is by enforcement. I am pro on attitude can be control by environment. Because I am an engineer. I need an engineering solution for my PhD. But I do agree that to solve the community's social dilemma, we need a very big team integrated all authorites...not only Tan Sri Musa ~
Tan Sri Musa claimed that our road users are too brave even brave for die on the road! But I bet, if Malaysia follow the way of Japan in order to control the accident and fatality, many peoples' life will be miserable..
In Japan, people who has involved with fatality accident or causing other people severed is label as same level as criminal. These kind of peoples can be fired from their job or will face the hard way to get a job. What else? The procedure after involve in accident will make u think more than twice to drive or ride aggresively. The police will take your picture, record every single details and demerit from your driving license. Plus...it is very expensive to pay the damage that you make caused by accident. Everything is about money!
I think, Malaysia need a very strict policy and rules towards the road users. No discount for summon. But doubled it when they not pay it ~ make sure no body can run. Plus, it can increase our economy just by collecting the summon ( this is sarcastic sentence). Road users not afraid of being caught - that is one clear reason. But for my study, I will figure out more, I wish.
p/s: but the results not showing the significant relationship .... sigh!

Preparation for presentation
Busy. The only word to story everything about my life recently. I have to prepare slides for presentation in Nagoya next week. This would be my first presentation out from the zemi hall in Katsura Campus. Kinchou suru. Suddenly they pick me to represent the lab. Maybe because there is no other PhD student in the lab. The senpais - Ari, Petr, Yilin and Owen already graduated. Yay!
Only few days left. ..
The interesting part is there will be an award for the best presenter. Get to go back to work.

saaa....tsukarechatta nee
Another one and half year to go!...and I have already tired living in Japan.Huhuhu...
It is not about my study. I think percentage of difficulities on managing life in Japan is highly "adventurous" than my study. In a week, maybe only 2 or 3 days that I can fully concerntrate on my study. Problem with car, parking place, policeman, bank, letters, bills etc. ~ it is not that difficult if it is in English. But all of them are in Japanese character that would make my head dizzling. Beside of that, the kibishi (strict) rules in Japan make the life harder. Now, after nearly two years living in Japan, I really afraid of being penalty, It is very expensive and no compromize!
When I came back from Malaysia, I just realized that a few problems occur. First, my credit card is totally terminated because of late payment. My lab's secretary confirmed that the money for the flight ticket will be paid into my account in June while I was in Malaysia. But it didn't. So, because of that, the credit card company add some penalty and suddenly terminated my credit card. I can't apply for credit card anymore by using the same account. No more credit card now...^^!
Second, before I went home to Malaysia, I haved already put some amount of money in my bank account for car parking's payment. Usually they will deduct from my account. But today, I received a call from fudo-san saying that the car parking's owner didn't received my payment for two months. It supposed to automatically debit from my account. But , the owner received the payment for August. There must be something wrong with the bank system - wrong because maybe I don't understand. I have to go to the bank tomorrow. And face the difficulty in Japanese Language.
I will move to new mansion in the middle of October. In this new mansion, I have to set up a new internet network which I need to gain help from Japanese friend. It is because, for the cheaper one, I need to negotiate about the contract etc. Usually the contract is for two years. I can say that everything in Japan is about a contract. When we say that kerenah birokrasi, I think Japan is worse...too many document, but they are effective. They always follow the rules. No space for mengelat.
I am getting busier and busier after got the data. Alhamdulillah, analysis with logistic regression is already finished. I take about one month to learn the statistic and SPSS. Not so bad! Quite fast... Next Monday I have a meeting with sensei at 2p.m. I need to ask him to be my guarantor for a new mansion. After that I have to go to settle up the contract. Gheez... Busy is good but it is really tiring. =)
