Francais Usahawan 1 Malaysia

Alahai citer macam dah lama tapi tak kira nak update jugak pasal nie...

I went with 2 other lecturers & 2 groups of students to MATRADE Convention Centre (MECC)on 9th March 2011 for the opening of Francais Usahawan Muda 1 Malaysia organized by PNS (Perbadanan Nasional Berhad) with several other agencies. It was actually held for 2 days but we only went on the first day.

There were forum on the successful franchise businesses, which were moderated by *surprised2* my senior during good old UUM days...Prof Madya Dr Amy Azhar, and panels from franchisors & franchisees of several well-known franchise brands (Smart Reader, Focus Point, House of Healin, Acting Coach & McDonald's). The overall emcee of the day was Nazrul Idrus, which people quickly relate to Sazzy Falak..yess folks, he's her hubby. It seems that his company was appointed to handle the whole affair..i guess so.

As i am very into this type of business (cuma duit ajer yang takde), the topic was very intrigued indeed. They discussed on the advantages of franchise, what it takes to become good franchisees, the opportunities and also their experiences in dealing with this business...its too long and complicated if i were to jot down everything here.

For those who are interested in becoming franchisees but short of financial resources, worry no more...PNS is offering 5 types of financing to those who are interested aka "Skim Biaya Francais". You need to have a "Sdn Bhd" company and ready to pay at least 10% of the whole franchise expenses.

To cut everything short, the trip was beneficial and worthwhile as:
1. I've never been to MECC before
2. I love going to franchise exhibitions or seminars
3. You get free brochures of the franchisors involved in the exhibition
4. Goodiebags & free lunch were given to the audience

Bunting...

Registration...

Hey..that's us!

Everyday is a "Sauna" day!!

Haaaaa..ni nak bagitau nie....dah setengah tahun kot diriku merana, di"sauna" secara paksa selama minimum 8 jam sehari, 5 kali seminggu...tak payah pegi spa buang toksin dalam badan....ni ha kat opis pun dah cukup!!!! U ols leh tahan tak kalau problem AIRCOND ROSAK setiap hari pegi keje???????????

Nasib baik kami pekerja gomen yang berdedikasi, sedia berkhidmat walau berpeluh2 ke**** setiap hari, mendidik anak bangsa & memartabatkan insitusi pendidikan tinggi tercinta serta berkebolehan "mengadaptasi" kepada persekitaran sekeliling macam IGUANA muahaha..huhuhuhu...

Sesungguhnya dah tak tertahan lagi wehhh..kepala dah naik migrain ni walau pun banyak dah toksin kuar..workload adalah sangat banyak, belum lagi dateline itu dan ini yang memerlukan kami berfikir secara kritis, bergerak pantas dan penuh daya inisiatif ....sesungguhnya kami merayu kepada pihak pengurusan tertinggi khususnya Puan A, Puan Z dan En. N untuk segera mengambil tindakan..... (eh diorang ni mana ada baca blog kopitiam nih kan)

kipas bawak sendiri dari rumah untuk mengatasi masalah sauna berlebihan di opis

haaaa... tu lagi

kesian kan....macam opis era 60-an (ntah2 era tu pun dah ada aircond)

ni lagi hebat...3 kipas terus..boleh dikatakan setiap meja ada kipas huhu..zaman sekarang ni payah nak tengok tau..eiiiii tension!!!! tolongggg...

syamariz note:

lawatan muhibbah melawat kawasan telah dilakukan oleh pihak pengurusan, survey sana survey sini, ha baru tau panas tak panas...masuk sekejap opis pun dah mengeluh panas, baru nak tengok budget ada extra tak untuk aircond ni..adoiiiii..kena tunggu buat proposal la, bawak masuk miting laa...ni kang mau berbulan2 lagi kena panggang ni..

kalau tak terdesak takde la diriku mengadu di blog ini...

Co. Annual Dinner year 2008

My company had its annual dinner event on friday nite (19th december) at Concorde, Shah Alam, the theme was unique & glam u....as i didn't know what to wear plus nak jimat kos, i decided to wear my wedding kebaya and surprise! surprise! i was chosen as one of the best dress recipient award for the nite hehe..anugerah ini melayakkan syamariz membawa pulang...erkkk seketul hamper haha..

Mr B pulak dapat lucky draw..he got a chiller box (alah bekas yang boleh letak can drinks dgn ais bila nak gi picnics, trips etc tu). We were hoping for one of the grand prize (LCD TV/ Laptop/ Digital videocam) tapi tak dapat huhu....takpe la, dah dapat 2 hadiah ni kira orait la kan...

Next year i heard maybe dah tak buat annual dinner kot..hmmm ekonomi sekarang kan dah semakin merudum, lagipun pengarah baru pun cam tak berminat ajer dgn dinner2 nie so dunno la....i don't really mind, i just feel kalau ada annual dinner ni at least ada awaited event at the end of the year, dapat gak jumpa2 staf dari jbtn2 lain and also dapat melaram dgn baju2 glemer hehehe...arghhh whatever la

Me, my hamper & the lucky draw prize in the brown box
My lucky kebaya...ignore my 'fatness' ok folks

We went back with 2 prizes hurrayyyy..

I'm back home..miss it much!

At last i'm home..yippeee...god knows how much i missed my 'katil empuk' , tiada tolok bandingan, even to hotels standard...



Today is the last day of my meeting, after checking out fr the hotel, not intending to disturb my hubby from work, i carpool with a friend of mine, who happen to live in SU, just a few meters away from Mr. B's office, then i call laling up to fetch me by the roadside (baik kan isteri..tak nak susahkan suami dia drive jauh2 ke KL..ececehhh..masuk lif tekan butang sendiri pulaks)



Then went for lunch with him, and (after almost an hour) tadaaa..i'm home again, as usual my cat Saiful (affectionately known at home as Sepol) greeted me with delight (i assume la..cos cats have no facial expressions)..ohhh rupanya dia laparr, after petting him on the head, brush his fur and all..oh ya kasik dia makan, i ran upstairs to the bedroom and jump on my bed grinning sheepishly...muahaha...i never want to leave home again...memang padan dengan cogankata "Rumahku Syurgaku".....100% agree..yupp!



Here's the nostalgic moments i endured during the 5 days i went for the
meeting (which i think is more of a workshop):

• i never know i could miss my home, my cat & my family so much..not until they're apart (thank god i'm not that far away)


• the new found friends are so friendly & easy to work with..so our tasks were completed earlier than expected..really puas hati


• the hotel food is not bad at all, in fact is accordance to everybody's taste...the bread puding & cheese cake are among the sinful food to die for..yang lain that i found yummy, assam laksa, kueytiaw ladna, fishball noodles, spagetti boloignaise, mussels, otak2 etc..eventhough all are just plain ordinary food but it was prepared to my taste hehe..errr if only they serve more international food there, particularly korean..ahhhh **drools** but i'm not complaining though


• i learn some new things (work related of course) and proudly contributed towards the ministry/nation ehehehe..cannot tell in detail one, cukuplah sekadar itu


• Everybody got variety of souvenirs at the end of the workshop..as for me, i got a brown stones/crystal-like necklace, k.liza dapat tshirt...


• and yang agak sayu...i got a msg from along (my friend) saying that her sister had passed away from cancer on the 2nd day i was there..promised to visit her this weekend, just to give her support..

Here's some photos for remembrance :

with my roomate k.liza (also from PSA)..waaa matching floral print shirt hehe


suasana kat workshop aka meeting.

syamariz note : ahh..alangkah nikmatnya dapat menikmati semula nescafe ais kegemaranku setelah 5 hari asyik minum kopi hitam pekat a-la hotel style tu...dah menggigil menahan ketagihan tau hehe...nampaknya i cannot tolerate just any coffee, it must be either nescafe or white coffee....

Terperap di hotel...

me...hard @ work ehehehhh..

Harini hari ke-3 syamariz kat sini, the meeting involves a lot of hard work, like i said before...pagi petang siang malam dok mengadap komputer untuk kejar dateline, everything must be ready by thursday (tomorrow) so that the 'urusetia' could proceed with the next stage..

Sepanjang kat sini duduk sebilik dgn k.liza (member seopis)..tapi malam2 dia balik rumah tinggallah diriku keseorangan huhu...layan internet aje la, nasib baik laptop ada broadband, kat sini beshhh..dapat full coverage, puas hati cos laju tak macam kat rumah

Lama2 dok sini, asyik terperap di hotel rasa macam sakit kepala pulak, dah la tak amik fresh air pastu semua tempat ber'aircon' ajer..feel kinda suffocated after a while, ada jugak kengkawan ajak jalan ke Jalan TAR la, Semua House la tapi tersangat malasss..lagipun i got nothing to buy, just kirim tudung pesen2 sekarang yang sempoi tu kat kak liza..hmm nanti leh tunjuk

My laling Mr B kata nak datang malam ni jenguk apa kabar wife dia yang dok terperuk kat bilik ni hehe..baru la rasa bermotivasi sikit, syiann dia kena datang malam2 dari sg buloh(our 2nd house) just to see how i am doing, alaaa..i'm sure anybody would do that to thier loved ones, i know i would do that if i were him..

Cuma yang agak merisaukan sekarang adalah....the FOOD here is sooo yummy, tertekan dibuatnya haha sebab tiada kekuatan diri nak menolak, almost everything that they serve here is delicious..selalu pegi meeting/kursus sana sini pun belum tentu hotel tu food dia sedap, but here its different..taksanggup nak timbang berat badan bila balik nanti hahaha..ok gottago for now, masa rehat tersangat la precious, time to rest for a while before gotta work again..

Meeting next week..

Aduh laaa...tengah dok down semalam, dapat pulak panggilan gi meeting next week, tak jauh mana pun...kat KL jer, dekat alahhhh hotel Ancasa depan Kotaraya tu (dulu namanya Hotel Impiana)...tapi kalau nak berulang jauh la pulak, tambah dengan traffic jam lagi huhh baik la syamariz dok je sana diam2...mesyuarat pulak sampai ke malam, scary movie la pulak nak drive memalam balik umah

Ok la tu kot..dapat lari kejap dari keje2 opis yang dah maha rutin nie, semua ditanggung free cuma kena perah kepala otak je hehehe...cuma yang tak best tu peserta mesyuarat semua syamariz tak kenal huhu...alaaaaa kurang bermotivasi la camni, kalau tak selalunya bila mesyuarat ke kursus ke mesti ada muka2 familiar dari poli2 lain, satu lagi bab nak tinggalkan keluarga...ishh beratnya la hati, dah terbayang Mr B dok terkebil2 kat umah hehe, bukan apa..kalau memasing balik je dari opis, mulut mesti riuh nak bercerita sakan pasal apa dah jadi seharian tu, macam la sebulan tak jumpa (maklum la masih lagi honeymoon mood), alahai sorry ye yang, nak buat cemana....ishh kalau ada baby ke lagi susah kan..haruss angkut seisi keluarga ke hotel tu kan..hmmm setakat nie belum ada tanda2 lagi, doakan syamariz okay..hopefully ok la meeting nie..just kena buat preparation sikit sebelum pegi nie..

Majlis Jamuan Kongsi Raya PSA 2008

Di saat akhir2 bulan Syawal pun ramai lagi berebut2 nak buat open house kan...termasuklah kat ofis syamariz nie, hari rabu lepas (29 oktober) telah diadakan sambutan kongsi raya (aidilfitri & deepavali), mula2 memang bercinta betul nak datang almaklum buat hari rabu malam, hari keje la pulak..last2 pegi jugak, tarik Mr B dan Shed datang, makan..makan..makan..kenyang..balik!

Rasa pelik pulak syamariz datang kat event opis takyah buat apa2 keje..kalau tak, ada function ajer mesti kena jadik emcee la, usher la, itu ini..tapi yang nie best, datang makan free heheh..ni 1st time bawak hubby & son to my official function, next time Annual Dinner pulak, this coming December.

Dewan Besar PSA
Menu : Nasi Briyani & laukpauk, Laksa, Sate, Nasi Himpit Kuah Kacang, Bubur Caca, Kuih Muih & Buah, Kordial & Teh Tarik

Dari kacamata seorang Emcee

This was actually taken on 22nd October (last wednesday) when we had Hari Kualiti & Integriti 2008 at my office (ofis gomen kan, haruslah ada xtvt2 camni..)

Diriku menjadik emcee (sib baik tak mc teruss)..tak volunteer pun tapi dah ada yang mintak tolong, tak sampai ati pulak..lagi pulak diorang dah tolong sediakan skrip so syamariz pun syok sorang2 la berangan macam baca berita dalam Berita Perdana..haaa macam ni la pandangan diriku dari sudut atas sekali Dewan Kuliah nie..


Lepas abis majlis, terus beramai2 ke foodcourt (kantin kampus) untuk jamuan mini raya dengan hidangan seperti lemang, nasi himpit, rendang, soto ayam, sate & aneka kek/biskut raya..sedap sehingga diriku menapau (kesian teringat orang2 kat umah huhu)...next week baru jamuan raya besar2an pulakk..aduhh berapa kali jamuan raya daaa..cemana la nak kurus skit camni!!

Jamuan Raya @ office

Actually jamuan raya nie last friday (17/10/08)...nie kat peringkat department je la (JPG), peringkat besar-besaran the whole campus tak tau la bila..jangan deme suruh syamariz meng'emcee'kan diri lagi udah..akakkkk lagiiiii...dah berapa tahun dah tak dapat nak enjoy makan sebab kena bercakap, ini tahun nak datang makan ajer..eiiii boleh ke..ahhh kalini tak kira..so here's a very simple, straight forward pix of last friday's raya buffet :

dessert table

menu wajib..lomang & rendang, menu lain nyer pix tak amik cos syamariz nak pulun yang ini heheh..alah yang lain emm mee kari, nasi goreng, bihun goreng, satay, nasi impit...and the list goes on

wajah-wajah puas hati kekenyangan : )....pas makan agenda wajib, sembang isu terkini rumahtangga masing2 haha..

last but not least...satay, okay dah kenyang..bila dah kenyang mula la nak diet, bila makan tak hingat dunia hehe

Kursus jadik usahawan

sesi kursus bersama encik khairil
peserta kursus gambar ramai2 (standard la kan pas abis kursus)

Dekat2 nak raya ni pun ada lagi kursus ya...rajinnyyyaaa....hehe.....sebenarnya dah takde mood duduk ofis, tu pasal bila dengar ada kursus, tajuk pun menarik "Developing a Good Business Plan", terus daftar!

Tak semestinya untuk bukak business jer..syamariz nie mengajar subjek pemasaran so ingat nak la upgrade sikit ilmu di dada ni ha, pulak tu selalu jadik supervisor budak bila diorang buat RP (rancangan perniagaan) so semestinya ini sangat menarik

Nasib baik la penceramah dia (En Khairil dari Perak) sangatlah interesting..dia banyak share pengalaman bisnes dia so lagi la melopong kitorang dengar hehehe...sekarang dia tengah usahakan penanaman serai kat ipoh seluas 100 ekar (kontrak dengan Kementerian Teknologi & Inovasi untuk penghasilan dlm kosmetik & farmaceutical), at the same time juga bukak pusat tuisyen dan merupakan seorang 'trainer' bertauliah.

Dulu beliau pernah berkhidmat di kilang simen di bandar "L" tapi after 10 years, quit amik VSS terus set mind jadik usahawan berjaya..macam2 pengalaman & pengetahuan yang dia share dengan kitorang..antaranya pasal prospek tanaman cili, jagung, cendawan etc penternakan kambing, lembu, ikan, cacing dan tak ketinggalan industri perkhidmatan & francais..

Lepas discuss teori, buat kumpulan dan kena set up business sendiri (konon2 la)..well..syamariz apalagi..terus cadangkan bukak spa, member2 lain setuju..wokehhhh set! Bincang punye bincang dah jadik macam betul2 nak bukak spa next year..hmmm if only! Modal ajer tak berapa nak ada..nak amik loan pulak loan yang ada sekarang pun dah beratur panjang huhu...takpelah biar ada plan dulu, mana la tau kan...sila beri sokongan sekiranya projek mega syamariz nie berjaya ok

Lain2 bisness yang agak best kalau dapat buat..bukak kopitiam or francais KFC, tapi nak bukak KFC ke MacDonald's ker modal kena at least RM400,000 gulp! ok..tak jadikk, kopitiam ni aisehh macam nama blog syamariz je kan..best gak kalo buat, tapi biar inovatif skit, kalo tak sama jer macam yang lain kan..hmmmm berangan lagiii bulan2 pose ni....

Anyway, thanks so much for our trainer, En Khairil for delivering such interesting course. Hope u will succeed in the lemongrass (serai) industry, best of luck to you, and in case i need help, will definitely contact you wokehh..

i'm back & kickin'..

Jumpa classmate lama kat ITTHO..Nik Rahaya a.k.a moknik
Souvenir kursus..modul & pencilbox comel

I'm back from the kursus & today adjusting to my normal working day life back..Secara overall, memang seronok sangat kursus Pemikiran Kreatif yang i pegi last week, satu sebab penceramah dia best & satu lagi belajar something that is different from what u do at work, one in a while u need that to refresh yourself..

Penceramah kursus ni En Zukaernain Wook dari Imteq Solutions Sdn Bhd..seorang yang berkarisma, kelakar, pandai mencuri perhatian dengan selingan isu2 semasa, siap ada tayangan video pasal mat rempit & mawi, buat aktiviti/game2 menarik and also lots of new things u learn to enhance ur creativity..thanks to En Zul, this course is so worth going

I juga dapat jumpa classmate lama masa belajar kat Ittho dulu, Nik Rahaya (moknik) & Zulkafli (Kap)..memasing pun dah kahwin, moknik anak 4 & Kap pulak dah 3..sonok sembang2 balik dengan diorang

Kat kursus nie jugak, terkejut bila setiap peserta dapat pencilbox comel ala2 zaman sekolah rendah dulu hehe..siap gambar kartun2 lagi, dalam tu ada pencil, pen, eraser dgn ruler..wahh ni senang nak bawak gi exam PTK nanti..mesti kalau orang tengok macam tak betul jer, dah tua bangka bawak pencilbox macam budak 7 tahun muahaha..

Apapun ramai puji kursus ni best & makanan sumer sedap2..tak tau la berapa kg syamariz dah naik sepanjang 4 hari kursus nih..next time i'll be sharing the good stuffs about Pemikiran Kreatif pulak...
