What a Week!

It's been a busy month for me since early October, and a packful week just the most recent one (the 1st Global Entrepreneurship Week/Malaysia - 17th until 23rd of November 2008, which I co-hosted especially in Penang, Malaysia) that I could barely write much about anything. But they say "pictures are worth a thousand words each" (or so), so, here are my 300,000+ words (enough?):-



Though, I have always been microblogging on twitter, facebook, topix etc. including for "The Week" itself, so, this blog had never really been dried of feeds.

Plus, I did put up so posts on blogs that I co-produce: ICT Penang and Kelab Usahawan Sosial Balik Pulau (KUSbp)

All red here on 1 Syawal 1429H

The favorite colours here were RED (shown above by the beauties who visited my house yesterday - the one in pinkish dress if my niece, and the rest are part-time model wife of my cousin and her offsprings) and green here in Balik Pulau, Penang (CLICK FOR OUR GREETING CARD!), when we celebrated the 1st of Syawal month of Islamic calender. It's the celebration of Eidul Fitri al-Mubarak for over a Billion Muslims around the world including some nearly 20-million in Malaysian and over 200-million more in neighboring countries of Indonesia, Thailand, Brunei and Singapore.

Happy Syawal to all, and my best wishes to all who celebrate this joyous season of strong brotherhood, friendship, unity and forgiveness. World Peace! (me being a beauty queen/Miss World contestant).

Kempen Penglobalisasian Keusahawanan (Entrepreneurs: take on the world!)

Sebuah program kempen berskala global untuk keusahawanan akan tiba dalam bulan November dan seluruh rakyat Malaysia juga diajak untuk bersama-sama menjayakannya. Minggu Keusahawanan Global 2008 (“Global Entrepreneurship Week – GEW 2008”) yang sulung ini adalah acara terbesar dunia untuk merayakan dan menggalakkan cetusan inovasi, budaya keusahawanan dan percambahan kreativiti secara global.

GEW yang ditaja diperingkat antarabangsa oleh NYSE Euronext, IBM dan Ernst & Young adalah hasil perkongsian usahasama Yayasan Ewing Marion Kauffman di Amerika Syarikat dan Kempen Make Your Mark di United Kingdom, yang mana kedua-duanya telah menganjurkan acara keusahawanan seminggu di kedua-dua negara terbabit.

Sehingga kini, lebih daripada 70 organisasi dari 60 negara akan terlibat dalam GEW yang dijangkakan akan menarik penyertaan daripada jutaaan belia dan remaja di seluruh dunia.
Pihak penganjur menjangkakan lebih banyak negara akan turut serta tak lama lagi.

“Kita kini hidup dalam detik yang paling dipenuhi dengan keusahawanan.”, kata Carl Schramm, Presiden dan Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Kauffman Foundation.

“Dengan membantu para usahawan muda untuk meneroka kaedah-kaedah keusahawanan yang baru, melalui media dan teknologi baru yang lebih diterima mereka, meraka akan mampu membina hubungan yang perlu untuk terus meningkatkan kemakmuran dunia. Minggu Keusahawanan Global adalah sebuah langkah besar ke arah ini.”

Warisan Global Sdn Bhd selaku hos di peringkat Malaysia akan mengumpulkan rakan usahasama tempatan dan menyelia acara-acara dan aktiviti-aktiviti keusahawanan sepanjang minggu tersebut (17-23 NOVEMBER 2008).

Tumpuan utama GEW ialah pelbagai acara-acara yang akan diadakan di peringkat antarabangsa, nasional dan kedaerahan yang akan melibatkan para usahawan dan bakal usahawan muda berkenaan dengan pelbagai aspek keusahawanan.

Di Malaysia, rakan usahasama yang telahpun mengesahkan penganjuran acara masing-masing untuk GEW termasuklah Perbadanan Pembangunan Multimedia (MDeC), Persatuan Usahawan ICT Pulau Pinang (ICT Penang), Gabungan Pusat-pusat eKomuniti Pulau Pinang (GPeK), MCA ICT Resource Centre (MiRC), Persatuan Teknousahawan Malaysia (TeAM), Cradle Investment Programme, Ideapreneur.net dan institusi-institusi pengajian tinggi termasuk Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM).
