My name is Poobalan. I hail from Klang, Malaysia. This blog is my contribution to the online community. I cover a range of topics that is relevant to the Malaysian Indian community. This includes social, political, economic, and religious/spiritual issues. This blog also focuses on Tamil schools, education, equal rights, ethnic relations, Indian political parties and NGOs, plus my interests – movies, garden, photography, and my dog. I also write about interesting places I visit. Between November and July, I would talk about post-SPM/STPM options and scholarships.

Gd day sir,
wel sir, currently im stayin at Shah Alam Sek 13..
i f a plan to go 2 Maran temple as wel end of tis march.
since i duno tat ter is no 1 arrange d trip, im decided 2 cum by my ownself by takin the public transport.
bt i duno weather its possible o nt..
so could u pls tel me wich bus am I should 2 tak 4rm Shah Alam Sek 17 2 b at Maran temple….and i aso need mr details abt other source if transportation…10qvm,sir..tc
hi,
i strongly suggest better not to take public transport if going alone. what you can do is ask around for people who organise trips to temples. usually they will stick notice in temples.
if you want to still go, i suggest take bus to kuantan, and from kuantan try find out if got public transport (or take taxi).
i think better if you call the maran temple office to ask more details on the local bus service.

Dear Sir,
My daughter is waiting for her SPM results. She scored 7 A’s in her PMR and I believe she’d do equally well in her SPM. As I am a single parent, i wish to enrol her in a matriculation college which would not be too big a financial burden on me. However, we have missed the application time frame and I am very disappointed to find out that the closing date for matriculation college application is long over. Is there a way for my daughter to apply for the matriculation, perhaps by requesting the MOHE to reopen the application. Thank you
unfortunately, its not possible to ask MOE to reopen the application. its been that way for a long time, the application is open during the form five, not after. what you can do (which i don’t really advice) is to try get political contact for a place. I won’t advice because this is interfering with procedures and makes us “indebted” with the politicians. i suggest your daughter proceed to form 6, or if she does well in SPM, apply for the scholarships listed at eduhelp.my
have the people in taman buah pala moved in to the new houses promised them
there was a function for key handover. refer http://www.thesundaily.my/news/186054

well, you said it yourself, need 5Bs in the critical subjects. so your option is to resit SPM for those 5 papers only.
btw, how do you know you got potential? your results doesn’t seem to indicate it, so i’m curious.
sir,
because i gt 7 A’s in trials…n 3 B’s………i had a B in physics n addmaths only…………..well,i do score well,bt i had no idea what happened in SPM………thank u…..
by the way sir,i only hv 2 retake 4 papers….because i already gt a B in biology
yes you are right, need to retake 4 subjects only.
trials is and indication, yes, but unfortunately, the real results are used. it happens, the trials results are good but actual result end up lower.
sir,
I’m doing final year of diploma. My total course is RM 29,750. In my college, PTPTN will give RM 20,000 of study loan and the balanced will be deducted from parents EPF. But my father had used his EPF for my brother operation to fix his broken spinal cord. The money still not enough. So, they borrowed money from other places also. Every semester before the exam, i will be barred from sitting exam for not pay the balance rm 9,750. Not only that, they always display my name in top of outstanding payment list because my family not able to pay. I also cry sometime when i think to be load for my parents. So many times i decided to withdraw from my college from being load for my family. I also started to work part time in Gsc ioi mall from 6pm to 3-4am. My salary quiet still enuf for my expenses only. I’m totally puzzled and don’t know what to do. Now i’m believe u Poobalan sir as a god that can help me to solve this problem. If sir able to help me with a bit of loan, i will be glad and never forget this help until my end of my lifetime. Please give me a new hope sir if u can.
hi ramesh,
can you provide your cost breakdown (fees for each semester,the amount given by PTPTN and balance needed to pay). maybe can get your college to igve the letter/statement.
since this is your final year, can you provide the academic results for the 1st and 2nd years?
if can, scan and email the documents to me at mpoobalan@gmail.com
since you are in last sem, its a bit difficult to get loan/scholarships. but we can try ask around.
Gd morning sir,
Your service is great. Keep it up, will contact u later, now busy
God will always bless u.
Take care. Bye….
Sir, I wanna do information technology course.now,I’m kinda confused in selecting the institution…should I do diploma in polytechnic OR foundation course at SEGI college? which one is the best choice? some says that if I do diploma at politeknik ,I cannot continue to degree.is that true? but,i planned to do degree in IT course,sir. please help me in guiding me towards making right decision sir.your help is very much appreciated sir. Thanks in advance
did you get place in poli? if yes, then poli is among the cheapest in terms of cost. plus you can still continue degree in IPTA (have to apply UPU) and IPTS.
if you want to do in IPTS, i suggest you look for better options like UTAR, MMU, UTP, Uniten, UCTI.
