CLEAN YOUR KIDNEYS WITH LESS THAN RM 1.00



Years pass by and our kidneys are filtering the blood by removing salt, poison and any unwanted entering our body. With time, the salt accumulates and this needs to undergo cleaning treatments.

How are we going to do this?



It is very easy, first take a bunch of parsley and wash it clean Then cut it in small pieces and put it in a pot and pour clean water and boil it for ten minutes and let it cool down and then filter it and pour in a clean bottle and keep it inside refrigerator to cool. You can add a tea bag for more antioxidant agent.

Drink one glass daily and you will notice all salt and other accumulated poison coming out of your kidney by urination. Also you will be able to notice the difference which you never felt before.

Parsley is known as best cleaning treatment for kidneys and it is natural!

Blackopoulos: The Return

This part o my life, called "The Return". Sound like Batman Return. I'm just ordinary people, not a superhero like a Batman but my daily routine consistently like a bat. Sleep during day and working at night. How about training? Manage to train less than 5 hours per week!

Wednesday, I step into another chapter of my life. More challenging, more exciting. I need to continue my work as academician and completing my post graduate study in part time mod, 360km away from my workplace, and the class being held during weekday, working hour.
That's I call challenge!

I need to change my daily routine, wake up in the morning, slide card, working, consulting, meeting, later have a running with Kakithon, group cycling at night, or socializing with Mahkota Bikers members, but can't forget to attend a class in UPM the next day. I love distance riding, it's totally test my physical, mental and sometime I learn to be more mature on the road.
It is really exciting!

"Mr Black bila nak ngajar kita?"
"Black ko abis study bila?"


My return to UTM, has been seeking by many, from students, staff and some lecturers. But my return is a hard decision to make and this decision is no way to return back.

Just Look But Cannot See

The fifteenth edition of Le Tour de Langkawi closing their curtain last Sunday. As a result we still can sustain the pressure to organize Hors category tour. The pressure came from very small and tight budget, thanks to Ministry of Youth and Sport become a lifesaver after pumped 7 million to this sport-tourism event.

This most celebrating cycling tour in Asia, successfully organized by most of locals in providing their expertise and services. Mohamed Salleh, CEO of 2010 LTdL, pre-tour statement said that he so glad to have a locals in most of aspect in organizing this tour. But he will become the happiest man on earth if the photo finish, timing and result services provided by Malaysian- the services that Malaysian fails after 15 times experiencing tours atmosphere.

As Malaysian, we must learning and looking forward for technologies transfer and expertise transfers besides proudly beating our chest claiming we organized the most pretigious tour in Asia-like a King Kong or Gorilla. Our culture to 'just look but cannot see' always made our valuable time and ringgit flew like a bird view from the sky- only looking the thing below but can't see what were happen.



Hopefully the 2011 LTdL's organizer will do a homework to search any locals can provide that very technical and critical unit in the tour. To do a homework not just only using an input from the teachers, text book and notes but please use a network and ICT in new fast and furious era!

Localization & Disallowed

Le Tour de Langkawi 2010 will open their curtain this 1 Mar. The 15th edition of LTdL organized by Ministry of Youth & Sports in collaboration with Malaysian National Cycling Federation. The ministry takes over the organizational aspect from MNCF because of the certain problem rose after previous LTdL.

The ministry trying to minimize the budget in organizing this most prestigious seven stages tour in Asia. One of the initiative is to search local suppliers, local services and also local expertise to run the tour. This initiative is a great effort by ministry which have limited budget (lower than previous edition) but still in making sure this edition will be greatest ever LTdL since 1996.

The ministry appoints local expertise to head many of departments in their organizing committee, allocates local suppliers to supply their products and gives local companies to provide their services to strengthen the needs of 1Malaysia spirit.

The freaky aspect in this edition, technical expertise/consultant/whatever still hired outsiders expert to provide the service! That service specifically for electronic timing, result and photo finish services. As we know, in Malaysia we have two companies which can provide that service. One of the company have an exactly and maybe up to date devices, better than that foreign company. But none of them were asking to have a presentation or give any chance to promote their expertise in front of the committees.


what did they do in our tour?

This matter seems too simple for LTdL'10 technical expertise/consultant/whatever, but he/she/they should looking this matter in many specific aspect. Firstly, the tour can save a lot of their budget for paying local company instead burn a lot of RM for the service that local company can give more even better (the company LTdL hired for that kind of service already received complaint from previous LTdL President Commissaires and many comlaints from others tour organizers in Asia). Secondly, whether if this local company will experiencing their first tour, it is an appreciation for the company to give their best for the sake of 1Malaysia spirit. Thirdly this is our tour, Malaysian tour, this is the time for Malaysian to prove to the world that we can stand by our own leg in organizing LTdL, the most celebrating tour in Asia. We did not want outsiders expertise anymore.


expert from the outer space

Perhaps, the organizing committee will do their homework in details and longer duration to making sure their vision "Local goes Global" will be happen next edition of Le Tour de Langkawi (if UCI satisfied and still give a green light to Malaysia to organize LTdL) by allowing local experts to show their expertise.

May and Me, May God Protect Me




May 2010, I will be back to work. Seven P's in hand. Start fresh, I don't want to remember what I was, where I'm, what I have done before I was left my work for my postgraduate study in 2009. I will working with new boss, maybe new atmosphere, new students, I guess new syllabus. That I was expecting now. I'm not IronMan anymore.

Back to work when I not yet completing my postgraduate study, is something like ?????. As my postgraduate study in course work mode, I need 4 semester equivalent to 2 years to completing my study. That I was proposed last 2008 and being accepted. Jokerily, the superior gave me only a year for my study leave. But it was fine because I can apply for extension. But the extension on for one semester and it is now. So, I will completing my final semester and my final project not in full time study basis. As many people will noticed, I have a lot of workload to put on my shoulders.


me and the iron horse

Furthermore, I need to attending a class and seeking a supervisor every weekday, not a weekend! Moreover, I need to ride to UPM in the morning, finish my business in the afternoon till sunset, then riding back 360km to JB for a night sleep before scan my matrix card 8 am in the morning at faculty.

Until now I don't understand why the administrators make this decision and let that kind of situation will be happen. As myself I only see that I will put myself in the risk four times each month for four months until I finished my study.

May God protect me!
