Hanya jenaka
Seorang pemimpin ingin memilih seorang timbalan, maka dibuatlah satu temuduga. Ramailah yang datang. Ditanya satu soalan, "kalau ada enam, bahagi dua dapat berapa?" kepada calon-calon yang datang.
Calon 1 menjawab, "dapatlah 3". Ini terlalu pandai, fikir pemimpin itu. Lalu berkata, "kamu bukan pilihan saya". Maka berlalulah calon 1 sambil terfikir-fikir, adakah saya menjawab salah.
Calon 2, terfikir kalau jawapan 3 salah, maka 2 kot. "Tuan, jawapannya 2!", jawab calon 2. Ini pula bodoh sangat, bisik hati pemimpin itu. "Kamu juga pilihan saya", kata pemimpin itu.
"Bagaimana dengan kamu?", tanya pemimpin itu kepada calon 3. Dengan yakin calon 3 menjawab, "kalau ada enam, lima untuk tuan, satu untuk saya". "Hah inilah orang yang saya cari", kata pemimpin itu dengan seronoknya.
Apa pengajarannya...

One America
One America in the 21st Century: The Report of President Bill Clinton’s Initiative on Race
By Steven F. Lawson, John Hope Franklin
Publisher: Yale University Press
Number Of Pages: 240
Publication Date: 2008-12-09
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0300116691
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780300116694
Product Description:
This volume represents the first publication in book form of the report of President Bill Clinton’s Commission on Race Initiative. Although the document was originally released in 1998, its important contents were overshadowed by crises that diverted the president’s and the media’s attention. The commission’s report contains the first comprehensive assessment of racial progress (or the lack thereof) in America since the heyday of the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s, along with many recommendations for improvement. It also extends the discussion of race relations beyond issues of black and white to encompass the new diversity of the nation’s population in the twenty-first century. The book features Steven F. Lawson’s introduction; a foreword by commission chair John HopeFranklin ; President Clinton’s speech that launched the commission; and, other useful materials that provide fresh information on American race relations today.
ONE MALAYSIA?
I hope we have better initiatives for our national unity through various agendas other than just political platforms..Dear our leaders, please don't let your personal/group political agendas get more priority than the national unity agendas. Otherwise, you have just repeated what Clinton did for Americans.
I plead.

Ekonomi Islam ke ekonomi Syariah?
Apa beza Islam dan syariah, syariah dan tauhid, syariah dan tasawuf?
'Fiqh utk ekonomi' sama dgn 'kaedah fiqh'
Apabila seorang profesor ekonomi tanya saya, 'kaedah fiqh dan fiqh sama?'. Saya jawab, 'tidak sama sekali, skop berbeza, tujuan/mauduk juga berbeza.' Dia berkata, 'utk apa kaedah fiqh?'. Saya jawab, 'kaedah fiqh utk hasilkan hukum, fiqh pula hukum.' 'Utk apa seorang ekonomi tahu kaedah fiqh, cukuplah dgn fiqh', dia kontra. Saya bertegas, 'itu gunanya ahli ekonomi Islam'..Namun jawapan ini blm memuaskan hatinya..baginya tak perlu belajar kaedah fiqh utk seorang sarjana ekonomi. //Teman2 fikirkan situasi ini ketika kita hendak kembangkan ilmu ekonomi Islam//
