Jogja 06 Car hit by train
From the silver craft we headed for check-into Hotel Saphir.
Along the way we had to cross a railway crossing.
Our coach had to stop one car away from the barrier, as the train is already coming its way.
But, we saw on the other side of the road, a car was trapped in between the railway line and the barrier.
"O MY GOD.....!!!!", I exclaimed in my heart.
KA...BOOM...!!!! here comes the train.
Our Jogja guide turned around and said that, it is a common sight in Indonesia. Somehow, in most cases the driver got enough time to manouver the vehicle sideway so that it is not hit by the train.
After the railway crossing my eyes were wildly looking at the local scene, such as sign boards and advertisement panels. This one here was in English and apparently sponsored by the "Stop Smoking"government orgainisation. 
It was quite a journey to the hotel, which is located along a busy street.
It was an elegant 4-star hotel. A shopping complex is annexed to it, and has the same name "Saphir Shopping Mall", as the owner is the same.
After a refreshing bath my wife & I pop into the Shopping Mall to look for three-pin adapter to charge my Rikoh camera battery.
Adapter is one of the necessities if we travel with electronic gadgets that need charging, e.g. handphones and laptops.
We rushed back to the hotel lobby where almost everyone was already assembled. 
I have forgotten which restaurant we had the dinner and I had also missed out to take photo of the restaurant, but not the food.

"Smoking can caused cancer, Heart Attack, Impotency and bad effects on pregnancy and foetus."
One turn before we arrived at Hotel Saphir, we passed by another university but I only managed to catch the glimpse of its admin building.

Adapter is one of the necessities if we travel with electronic gadgets that need charging, e.g. handphones and laptops.In this trip i had forgotten to think about that, and so now urgently looking for one, but couldn't find it. I asked around and was told that it is available in the supermarket at Basement 1, but, we were already late for pick up to dinner.
We rushed back to the hotel lobby where almost everyone was already assembled.
As usual there were still someone not ready yet.
Anyway, that delayed gave more time for our Qodariyah Travel owner to chit chat more things with the owner of the hotel, who had took his time to meet us. Possibly, I think his family stayed in this hotel too.
I have forgotten which restaurant we had the dinner and I had also missed out to take photo of the restaurant, but not the food.
After dinner we went to the Karita. Along the way I saw this Kopi sign board. It made me remembered my Noitre Expresso Swiss coffee that I left behind in my office.
Karita is a building housing clothings for Muslim ladies and men.
Of course ladies garments overpowered the men clothings, because ladies are more fashionable than men, even though at 50s & 60s.
Here in this picture you can see that they have almost everything a person need.
But don't ask me more because I don't know what is Mahar Parsel.
Here is Fitriah my travel friend browsing the Quran.
After spending half of our pocket, we went back toHotel Saphir and called it a day.

Jogja 05 Silver
From the batik industry we proceeded to the silver industry.We visited the one called HS Silver
It was a low single-storey building.
It was hot & sunny because the sky was blue.
If the sky is white, then it will be cooler, as it means the sky is covered with clouds.
But bright hot sunny weather is good for photography.
HS is hort for Harto Suhardjo.Ok here you see another Dutch spelling.
In Dutch "DJO" is pronounced as "J" in English.Hence, in pronunciation of this shop is
"Harto Suharjo".
That is why, I was saying in Jogja 01 that, it is not that easy for any Singaporean Malay tounderstand Indonesian Malay. We have not considered the colloquail slangs yet.
The resident guide of HS started with an introduction of the raw material used in their industry.I got the chance to see raw pure silver, brass and many other items used in silverware processing.
I also got to see this pure boraks.
No...no...no....this is not "borak" which in English means "a lie", but it is a kind of powder used for polishing silverware.
They had for display some traditional accessories,which were better known as costume jewelleries.
But nows-a-days, as many womens exposed their body, the accessories are worn over the raw flesh and can be seen by the naughty eyes of men.
I also caught the close up of the traditional silverware used in ancient Indonesian life. 
The Holy Quran mentions repeatedly that the dwellers of Paradise, will get to drink numerous kind of drinks serve in silver cups.
My friend, Akram, who was a surveyor, in the Changi Airport MRT Line, and switched professionas a promoter of AP300 US health products, once explained to me that, silver can help to prevent us from many disease.
"Yeah...but with prescription. Don't go and swallow your silver jewelleries or siver plate. That can be fatal...!!!" he said and continued explaining that...it was exactly the reason why our ancestors had silverware as their household utensils.
Their cups and saucers, pots and woks, basins and jugs were all made of silver.
I gathered later that it was precisely the reason why the Holy Quran mentions silver in its verses which were the revelation from The GOD Al-Mighty.
GOD is encouraging us to take benefit from silver,thru HIS hints in the revelations.
Do you guys know that silver in Chemistry is given its chemical code as "Ag", the way oxygen was given it's code as "O2" and Calcium as "Ca". I learnt them in school in 1969.
O how wonderful were those secondary schooldays.
By the way, I was from Naval Base Secondary School.
Wat.......!!!! you never heard of such school????
Guys....it was at Chong Pang Road just outside
the gate of The British Naval Base barracks
along Canberra Road.
Now it is in Yishun Housing Estate.
Coincidentally, we from the Class of 1969,
will get together this coming 31 July 2009 at
Swiss'otel Stamford to reminische the past.
Back to Jogja.
While we were browsing, my wife & I bumped
into our relatives. She came with her family,
but joined a different travel agent. Her
group of about 10 person, just arrived from
a 16-hour trip by coach from Jakarta.
After parting with them I had the urge to
visit the loo.
After parting with them I had the urge to
visit the loo.
I confessed that they had clean and fresh
fragrant toilets.
From the loo I walked out to the nearby road.
There was a madrasah just across the road.
Madrasah is an Islamic school. This one was
managed by the non-government organisation
called Muhammadiyah and it offer an upper
secondary level of education.
Long before the coming of the colonials,
Indonesia had many such schools. It showed that
Indonesians and all the Malays within
its Archipelago called Nusantara, were educated
people and were never illiterate as fausely
recorded by the colonials in their history books.
Of course, they followed the Arabic and Islamic
curriculum, which were the source of the
western education. This subject is too long
to continue it here.
So back to Jogja. Yes I saw that many madrasahs and
universities in Jogja are managed by Muhammadiyah.
There are many other secular government universities
in Jogja, as it is well-knowned for its progressive
education programs designed by the Sultan of Jogja.
Mr Sidek Sanif, our ex-Senior Minister used to study
in University Gajah Mada in Jogja in the early 60s.
I saw it when we were going for lunch.
I also got to see this pure boraks.
No...no...no....this is not "borak" which in English means "a lie", but it is a kind of powder used for polishing silverware.
They had for display some traditional accessories,which were better known as costume jewelleries.In those days these jewelleries were worn outside their clothings. Even in the old photographs of our ancestors of the Singaporean Nonya and Peranakan families, we observed that they wore their accessories over their dress. So men had no chance to see parts of the women body.
But nows-a-days, as many womens exposed their body, the accessories are worn over the raw flesh and can be seen by the naughty eyes of men.
I also caught the close up of the traditional silverware used in ancient Indonesian life.I must say they are marvellous and majestic.
The Holy Quran mentions repeatedly that the dwellers of Paradise, will get to drink numerous kind of drinks serve in silver cups.My friend, Akram, who was a surveyor, in the Changi Airport MRT Line, and switched professionas a promoter of AP300 US health products, once explained to me that, silver can help to prevent us from many disease.
He showed me a couple of products that had silver contents. I asked him shockingly,
"Akram...you mean we can consume silver...!!!???
"Yeah...but with prescription. Don't go and swallow your silver jewelleries or siver plate. That can be fatal...!!!" he said and continued explaining that...it was exactly the reason why our ancestors had silverware as their household utensils.
Their cups and saucers, pots and woks, basins and jugs were all made of silver.
I gathered later that it was precisely the reason why the Holy Quran mentions silver in its verses which were the revelation from The GOD Al-Mighty.
GOD is encouraging us to take benefit from silver,thru HIS hints in the revelations.
It is for us to manupulate raw silver and convert it as utensils or for consumption.
One of the benefit of silver is a cure for gastric.So guys drop at the nearest Pharmacy and ask the pharmacists if they have such a prescription for gastric..

Jogja 04 Batik
Jogja 04 Batik
After lunch visited the Plentong batik home industry at Jalan Tirtoopuran.
It was really close to traditional printing technology, as most of the work process was manual.
The worker were also very relaxed, not like me in my office.
Although I am not doing a production engineering kind of work, yet I was always put to do things in a rush.
Perhaps everyone in my office wantsto be seen as efficient worker and they do thing in fast forward mode.
As a result, so many people give me so many things to do at the same time.
But here, in Jogja, the people are more relaxed and peaceful.
The way they talk are also full of pause and musical chords.
I dun mean they sing when they talk, but, they do not talk so fast like us.
The batik designers, sat in a group of 2.
There was a a wok of liquid candle and a wok of liquid colouring agent.
It was only a mini wok.
They dip thei batik pen in the candle and draw free hand on the cloth.
Then they dip another pen into the colouring agent and spread the colouron the cloth.
I saw 2 plastic packet of items thatlooked to me like some snacks.
I asked the lady,
"Are these 2 items also used for designing batik?"
She laughed and replied in E minor,
"No...no...these 2 items are for meto eat when I am tired."
I was actually teasing them.
At another corner i saw a very familiar print of batik. Its the icon for "Wayang Kulit".
Wayang Kulit is a kind of puppet show in traditional Javanese life.
This one looks familiar because this icon is used by M Nasir, a Malaysian song composer,as his logo for his production company,Luncai Emas Sdn Bhd.
I strolled around and saw this batik mould, which looks so attractive.
The guide said that, different batik printsare used for different traditional occasion.And different print are used by different people.
Phew....so hard to digest such complexities.
Back at the end were the bath for washing the printed batik.
No no no not a lady...but blue batik,my favorite color.
A georaphical map was hung on the wall. It showed that Jogja or the official name, Jogjakarta, is at the southern most part of Jawa Tengah (Central Java).
The city centre of Jogja is in the middle of the Jogjakarta Province.
What did you say,
"I spelled Jogjakarta wongly...?"
No guys, I did not spelled it wongly, but,it's because Indonesia was once under theDutch.

Of course there are batik designs for royal occasion, and, there are batik designs for royal family only, and a diffrent design for palace officials and designs for common folks too.
Phew....so hard to digest such complexities.
Back at the end were the bath for washing the printed batik.And then, wa.lla....as we were strolling out,I met my bride....hmm
No no no not a lady...but blue batik,my favorite color.

"I spelled Jogjakarta wongly...?"
No guys, I did not spelled it wongly, but,it's because Indonesia was once under theDutch.The Dutch colonial government translated the old Bahasa Indonesia, which were written in Arabic character into Dutch Romanised alphabets.
In Dutch alphabet, "J" is pronounced as "Y"
Therefore, in short, Jogjakarta should be pronounced as "Yogyakarta".
But, the younger generation after their Independence,learnt that "J" should be pronounced as English pronounced it in the word "jungle'.
Hence, the splelling stays as Jogjakarta,but the pronunciation changed from Dutch toEnglish.
14 July 2009
I visited Microsoft Office's office
Microsoft Office's office
The address as I had it from the Microsoft On-Line is
One Marina Boulevard, #22-01 Singapore.
I thought it was somewhere near the Marina South MRT Station.
So I rode my bike via Raffles Quay, as there is a new link to
Marina South from there.
But, as I made my way into Raffles Quay at the junction of Finlayson Green,
I saw a tall building called One Marina Boulevard.
I paused at the entrance to the car park. I saw the security gurads
waving his hands, not because he recognized me, but he was
signalling that motorcyles is not allowed into the car park.
I turned right at the next junction and noticed that the road name is
Marina Boulevard. I parked my bike on the pavement
as there is no other option.
On my way up I saw thae building name is NTUC Income.
I went to the security counter, gave my NRIC to a charming lady
and registered as a visitor. She gave me a "Visitor" sticker.
I was puzzled and asked the security officer how to get thru the barrier,
as I was not given a bar-coded card. The security officer said something
and i thought I had to remove the sticker from my chest and tap it
onto the panel.
He tap my shoulder very friendly and said to me slow and clear,
"Enter your NRIC No. on the panel."
I did and the barrier opened.
I went straight up to Level 22 and proceed to the reception counter.
Another 2 charming ladies welcome me and asked how they can help me.
I said straight, " I want to buy the Microsoft Home Version 2007."
One of the lady answered, "O we don't sell that item here."
She looked like a Malay girl, but you never know she can be a Filipino.
So I continued to speak in English.
"I purposely came here to see Microsoft Office's office.
I thought you are somewhere near the beach there."
I tried to swerve my way around.
"Sir you can buy it from any computer shop." she continued.
"But the address is shown in the on-line technical support", I replied.
"That's strange." said the other lady who is a little older than the first one.
While they were browsing the on-line printouts I showed them,
I saw the picture of the
Microsoft Office Home & Student 2007
on the wall.
I also heard that they were talking in Malay. So both of them are Malay.
The elder lady addressed me, "Sir, I am sorry all the officers are not available."
"It's OK then. I will go and buy it from the computer shop.
Do you of any shop nearby?"
She pick up the phone and talked to someone,
"Derrick, there is a ........" she paused thinking what is the right word to describe me.
".......a person here. He wants to buy Microsoft Office Home Version 2007."
She paused again and then looked at me and said, "Funan Centre."
I thanked them for helping me out and as I was moving out the younger lady said,
"Encik boleh beli di mana-mana kedai komputer pun."
I smiled my way out figuring that she must be thinking,
"What is this old Malay man going to do with Microsoft Office 2007."
On my way down the lift I looked at myself in the mirrored wall of the lift and sigh...
"Hmm yeah I do looked old to come to One Marina Boulevard to buy Microsoft Office 2007".
I realised later that in the printout it was mebntioned that it is the corporate address.
I managed to get one at Harvey Norman in Funan Centre. It costs me S$248.00
On reaching home I quickly installed the 25-digit product code
and God willing you will be able to see the continuation of my Jogja trip soon.

I hate myself
Hating Myself
Sorry guys...I am unable to upload more photos in my blog as my Microsoft Home & Student Trial Version has expired and I have not renewed it.
I am very upset...for the past 3 days, Thursday 2nd July, Wednesday 3rd july & Independence Day 4th July 2009.
Upset because, I hate myself for not renewing it earlier than before it expired.
I hate myself because, my carelessness make me now so frustrated that I cannot continue my Jogja Travelog.
You guys must have seen it by now that I have a passion for writing.
Now I have to be thankful to The GOD Al-Mighty, for I still can read.
I still can write with pencil and keyboard.
What I cannot do now is to write using Microsoft Office, cannot upload Jogja photos and cannot edit the big size Jogja photos into a smaller files.
And i dun feel like writing when I cannot upload the photos.
Guys, I was pushed around when making the on-line purchase for the Microsoft Home & Student Full Version.
First i received an on-line message during the purchase, that "there is problem with payment" from my VISA debit card. I hate myself because I did not put more money in my OCBC VISA Debit Card before renewing it. I do not have a credit card because I had bad debts when I had one.
Then i wrote to their Customer Support about the problem.
I had an email reply asking me to call the Microsoft Singapore Office.
I call yesterday morning, 3rd July 2009, and was told to submit my enquiry on-line.
Meanwhile at home I received another email from Microsoft Service Support to email to another email address in Microsoft so that my enquiry can be attended to.
Feeling pissed off. I wrote a nasty emails and feedback this morning complaining to them,
"Why push me around? I only need the Full Version please help me to get one. What's the problem...!!! Don't be shy...!!! If you cannot get money from my VISA Debit Card, just tell me straight into my face, so that I can go to Microsoft office in Singapore and buy one from your shelves."
I know it sounds a bit harsh, but, I am really fed-up to be pushed around.
