Hi Guys:

Short short dei  cool2.gif

Why suddenly all our posts (post 141 to 170) missing in action?

Hijacked by somebody? Someone purposely deleted them? Did we discuss "X" files here?

Luckily I did save in my labtop.

Do u want me to post them back again?

Yes.( BUT NOT LIKED WHAT AEIOU SUGGEST AHH)... This is reasonable if govt do just that.

1) Swiftlet farming is prohibited in all new developments in town by indicating it or specify it in all the properties lot titles. ( AND I DO MEAN ONLY NEW DEVELOPMENT!!!! BELUM START N BELUM CONSTRUCT AHH)...This i remembered is been practiced in i think johor if i not mistaken. The disadvantage is developers will have a much difficulties in selling the commercial units in small town. Liked in Sitiawan, even a 2 storey shophouse is selling at RM380K and the grd floor can only rent out at rm1K a month...this is all due to swiftlet farming !!!...

2) With new development been ban from swiftlet farming activities, stagnant & abandoned and existing commercial properties will fetch a higher price and with willing buyers waiting on line to buy it. Reduce the non performing loans for the bank.

Guys, if the govt really want to help this industry, they will not draft n approved a guidelines with so much red tape on it. We can cover every points in the guidelines but in the end, do they want to help the majority poor farmers or not??

It is not right to have mamak stalls at the roadsides but bandaraya allow it as they knew these peoples only want to make a living!!!...

It is not right to have a burger stalls besides the road but bandaraya allow it as they knew these peoples only want to make a living !!!....

( don't you think they are more polluted and more dirty and more unbearable in terms of noise created from the crowd that will not end until eve hours??).

..

The guidelines seem to make it hard for all Swiftlet farmers. It’s very much of pressing down this industry rather than supporting it. It has got nothing to do with how much this industry will benefit the country or its Rayat they couldn’t care. It’s more of making it hard for all farmers.

Look at it the red tapes. Can’t do here, can’t do there, must well don’t do it at all. We are not asking for help or any assistant or subsidy. We are on our own merely asking permission to feed our mouth. The permission to live, to do business as for this they don’t even allow us to do so. Look at how they help those eg: Felda, Felcra,…..free land , free technical support, Free fertilizer…..

Look at the Chinese school, they survived on their own. Own fund from donation. Even sometime permits for donation fare were rejected. Own money to build school without burden to the gov also not allowed as they won’t approve whatever even the land is donated by someone.

So what make most of us think that the Guidelines will benefit all of us? It’s only to a certain extent. I am not trying to be pessimistic nor I am not supporting the Guidelines but it clearly shows there is no end to the pressing down of this industry. Who were the players? You all knew it very well. Who are the officials? Who was the one that give stupid ideas that encouraged them to press down the industry?

To change the mind set of these officials will take long time. There is a saying:
“You can take a person out of a Kampong but you can not take the Kampong out of him”

One good example is Sarawak do they ever thought of what they were doing when they demolish those BH. What is their objective and mission? What do they get? What have they achieved? What are their goals?

By doing such would the cave Swiftlets population increase afterwards? Would people stop smuggling B.nests in and out of the country?

Hope one day all these would change. It is not impossible but it will take a long time.

Thanks all of you who had worked hard cracking your heads day and night to make this dream a reality in future. I salute all of you.

I am very sure there are some lawyers who own Bh are reading this forum. There're 60k farms in Malaysia i am sure some owners are lawyer.

What happens to you guys Lawyer! It is an opportunity here where you could represent 60k owners where you could make big money. Imagine 30% fork out Rm300.00 each you would have Rm 5.4 million. Isn't that lucrative enough?

If I were one I would offer my service .It's better than waiting 3-5 yrs for nests. So for those lawyers who are reading this pls post your reply. drool.gif

Penumpangan would be appropriate as we did not do any trading. So the perhilitan can't say that we trade or keep birds. They come and go as a Hotel "Penumpangan"

QUOTE(Lucas 1 @ Mar 1 2009, 01:05 AM)
Can we discuss about the annual fee for the Premise license for the BH? What is considered fair and justified to help those in town and those in Kampong and rural? Pleased bear in mind that the Kedah Excos are talking of promoting BH industry to help the rural and kampong folks as well. Also bear in mind that about 70% of BH owners are still struggling to attract the swiftlets into the empty BHs. It may take them a few years of waitng or GESTATION period before they can see some income.

Let me tell you a true event related to how the license fee for the MAJLIS DAERAH KERIAN was negotiated.

MAJLIS DAERAH KERIAN 1st proposed RM500 in early 2006.  During a council meeting chaired by the Setiausaha, MDK, DL asked why so high, RM 500 untuk lesen premis ? The Setiausaha said because bird’s nest is very expensive commodity. DL said gold is very much higher, then how much is the lesen premis for Goldsmith shop? SU couldn’t reply. Then DL said, now everyone here agreed that ini bukan Perusahaan, right ? All replied yes. DL proceeded that burung ni bukan di pelihara, dan juga tidak ada apa-apa urusniaga dalam, hanya burung tumpang macam sewa rumah dari kami, betul? They replied, ya, betul. DL asked again, jadi, nak tanya, berapa yuran lesen premis untuk sebuah RUMAH PENUMPANG untuk manusia? One of the pegawai answered, RM80 satu tahun.  DL then asked again, jadi, kenapa yuran untuk burung lebih mahal pada manusia???? No one answered and meeting adjourned.
Next day, DL received call from one councillor of MDK congratulating DL that in the council meeting chaired by D.O. this time decided the yuran to be RM240 same with Penang. Later in the day, DL called D.O and had a short chat. After put down the phone, DL drafted a letter and faxed over to D.O.  Two days later, the whole Parit Buntar BH owners were jumping and celebrating. The D.O. announced the yuran to be only RM200.

Please help to find out and fill in the following with detailed descriptions if possible and as soon as possible. We need the comparisons.
1) Penang state- Annual lesen premis are flat RM 240 flat for one operation.
2) Majlis Daerah Kerian-lesen premis- RM 200
3) Taiping-
4) Telok Intan-
5) Sri Manjung-
6) Ipoh-
7) Selangor-
8) Pahang-
9) Kelantan-
10) Malacca-
11) Negeri Seremban-
12) Trengganu-
13) Perlis-
14) Johor-
*
Since it involves orang kampong, how could orang kampong afford Rm 240.00? They will say places like penang, Taiping,etc all are town area so town area all towkay kaya-kaya that is why they charge rm 240.00. Why should there be double standard? vmad.gif

I would say not more that rumah tumpangan which is Rm 80.00. Places like Subang Jaya ,P.J ,etc where rental of ground floor shops could go above Rm 15,000.00 per month or more. The land is so expensive here,the business traffic is so high yet the trading license is only Rm 200++. rclxub.gif

Why do we allow them to charge so high in small town just because of their stupid perception.

As mentioned goldsmith license is cheaper!

The reasonable charges should be below Rm 80.00 thumbup.gif

Both DK & OR have their advantages & disadvantages. It's how you could make use of them to the fullest advantage.

Understand the flying route & circle of birds would certainly help u in determine the right e.hole.

As far as sound pollution, given both without using Hex tweeters the sound reaching distance of DK is farther. As OR tends to reach a limited position as facing vertical to the sky. The advantage of OR the sound will not reach horizontal level thus less neighbors’ complain.

hi
nice to meet everybody. i follow ths forum abt 1 month. jt finish the post n register jt nw. learn a lot of thg from sifu here
a lot of people discuss about the blogger.
harry , ck, james,pak hen.................
my point of view is we hav to use our wisdom to choose the consultant.most of the blogger jt report the good work from them.
for example, my frien, MR Lim in melaka farm was visited by JAMES last year(he write in his blog wtith title DARING FARMER, date 11 aug 2008.)
My friend follow his advise n renovate the farm again. but very disappoined, the result even worse. JAMES never report ths in his blog.so before choose any consultant, we should learn as much as possible abt swiftlet knowledge so tht we knw is the consultant qualified to revamp our farm.
i jt want to share my point of view abt the blogger, not against anyone
*
Check your fact before you claim what you heard. Go to my blog and open your Fxxking eyes and see the picture yourself and read between all sentences ("lines" in case you don't understand). The farm was under construction so how could I revamp it if it is still under construction. This is a platform for you to learn things from us not for defaming others. vmad.gif

Your friend’s farm was solely done and designed by him not me. He has no basic knowledge about Swiftlet farming and undertake the whole construction by himself that is why I called him a daring farmer. Lets put the point straight.

Since you want to mention I will let you know. The 1st floor was about 20++ feet high that was the first farm with such height I had ever seen in my entire life. I was shock to see that. I asked him why? He said to prevent thieves. I reply if it is a failed farm do you still worry about thief?

His opening of the DK was not at the proper position and many more which I can not finish writing here. The whole construction works and consultation was under take by him not ME. Go and ask him. I was invited there for an hour to give my view. Furthermore I was there only once.

He spent countless hours and hundred of thousand on the farm and I merely spend an hour there now you want to blame it on me. I will Fxxk you. What is your agenda? mad.gif

You have your hidden agenda. The post was in mid Aug 2008 now is early Mar 2009. It was 30% completed and yet to complete another floor. It takes about 3-4 months to complete perhaps longer. Based on this it may complete in end 2008 or early 2009. From here if it had completed its only operated for 1 month ++ or 2 month now. What do you mean the result worse? Do you know what you are talking about? Is it before my visit there are few hundred nests inside the under construction building? You had Contradicted yourself, Boy! It shows you have hidden agenda and have totally no knowledge about swiftlet farming. You don't know what you are talking about. Please learn to be a better liar.

I merely show him his mistakes and how it should be done but all the pillars and structures already up there. Go and ask him to knock down the whole structure and rebuild I be the consultant I will guarantee you 100 nests in a year with my life asset. In case if you don’t understand English go and get a dictionary. KNNBCCB. vmad.gif

Hey Boy you are dealing with people who have knowledge. You think I am some idiot bloggers that you could fool with KNNCCB you. Stupid fool study your opponent first before you attack! Don’t simply pick your opponent. Don’t come here and play-play with me and find fault!


If you come in here to get knowledge you are welcome. If you come here to create disunity amongst all swiftlets farmers that are hand in hand now to solve the guidelines crisis you are not welcome.
shakehead.gif I could anticipate that some of the active forumers here who also bloggers may be next victim "beware" whistling.gif

P/S: just got info from source (few minute ago from insider)Mr. Lim himself had enggaded an idiot to undertake the operation to start sound from sound to aroma. Go and ask him. I dare him to call me!

For yr information I just got a call from Mr. Lim himself. I was so surprised that he calls me. He said I Fxxx you perfectly and how could you simply defamed others. He said there are many like you that create havoc. He asked me to ignore you. I salute Mr. Lim for his effort to call me to clear up the air. notworthy.gif

Well I am a gentleman I rest my case and I have no time for you. rclxm9.gif


For your info the one you mentioned is done by Goldensw……… I suggest you should read more and mix around with someone that has knowledge in Swiftlet farming. May one day you learn good things not evil.

Ladies & gentlemen. Please grow up and don't simply make empty assumptions and accuses without solid evidence. This platform is for fellow farmers to make friends not enemies. Aren't we have enough common problems to be solved already? All should know no consultant or product gurantee 100% success. If a product doesn't work on one does not mean it won't work for others. Everybody got their positive and negative sites. If one gets only praise and everybody like him with zero negative comment then there must be a problem with him.
Please keep those blind critics in personal blogs only. Write whatever you like there.
*
Yes I agree with you here is the platform to share and to make friends not to make enemies. Certainly not a platform for accusing others just because of own judgment and own diffusion character. Go to some forum you will see the same person diffusing character trying to fried things up .Always same tactics of criticize others, their products, their skill whatever after another. I guess he must have feel good when he had criticized, belittle and bashed others. Just like steering up shit. This platform was started in early 2007 by few guys for the love and the good of swiftlet farming not for hidden agenda or get publicity or politic. I guess where were those who try to get publicity and criticizing other when it first started then. For those who say don't waste time here then they should'nt have came in at all.

There is not one moment he could stand still. I guess all forumers and readers know clearly not from what I write. It is from what they read in all articles of all forums and blogs. Readers are not stupid. Who always criticize others? Criticizing and targeting one bloggers to another even the other didn’t offended him or have no whatsoever relation with him. It is just a feel good sensation to satisfy his ego and character that craving for such. If you don’t support those that he looks high upon you are his enemy. If you support you are his friends. This doesn’t benefit anybody or the farming industry.

Worse of all he doesn’t accept his weakness and his mistake. I believe anyone can change for betterment of themselves or family or to the society.

A person diffusion character and attitude will bring him many enemies in life and not many friends. Even partnership in business will not last. It is a matter of time.

For sure the diffusion character will force him to bite back and bash back with revenge and anger when he see this if he think it is him. Well please accept him and forgive him…..don’t get mad with him actually it is not him it is his character. I believe character can be conditioned to change.

I am willing to accept this type of person as a friend if he changes. Everybody makes mistake most important they accept it and changes. Nobody is perfect. That is what most Gentlemen would do.

I challenge every genuine former to use your Name and your address and email contact we will have a fantastic community in this forum site and helping everyone and have friends in every corner of Malaysia where there Swiftlets flies and BH in the horizon . Not unless you are ashamed of yourself and only have bad intentions. Maybe Seeseng should only allowed identifiable former to post. KPW site is a good example.

Ben,

Have you writen this wrongly? "Their not your". Or I am perceiving it wrongly or you actually mean "your". If all forumers use my address then it will be a big problem. rclxub.gif

If you challenge every genuine forumer then it shouldn't be "your name"

I presume it is "their" correct me if I am wrong. Understood everybody makes typing error smile.gif

not related to any of the recent previous posts..... does anyone know exactly just what type of insects these aerodramus/coloccia prey on? i just know roughly that they feed on insects less than 2cm in length (besides fruit flies) but what type/species... in the dark. also can't find any research about it. maybe its a tad too difficult to do? (just want to know if they actually do prey on agricultural pests)

For those who know sound system it is the RMS its count. Not how big or how cheap or expensive or how many channels. The packaging and out looks may fool us sometimes.

Open up the casing and take photo. Many will be able to tell you whether you get conned or not. Good sound needs high quality capacitors and micro componenets that are made in America, Japan or Taiwan or at least by the same company invested in china.

Since u mentioned that it is not as loud as SS66 therefore it is clearly showed certain reduction of power capacity in order to save cost .That is why for Rm 300 you can get this Amp.

Beside that the transformer is also important and many other things which we had discussed few years back in the previous V1. Go and check it out it may help u to understand more. Don't be too happy.

This my sincere advise. Hope it helps.

most of the things now made or assembledin China due to cost factors.

For good reputable OEM they used good branded components like Nichicon capacitor which is still made in Japan or Jamaicon made in USA.

But now I don't know they still put this stuff in due to customers always want cheap!

This dicussion will never end. My advise is don't overload your amp that is most important.

Immaterial where the SS99 come from most important the internal components inside. For me to know I have to open up and look inside. If they use good components then it is good.
