FIRST ASIAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATIVES HOUSING CONFERENCE ON POVERTY AND SLUMS

One of the presentation...too bad.. I do not have any picture myself..

Assalamualaikum wbt,

Early part of last week, In the morning...Thanks to invitation from Kak Faridah

I signed for an international conference for INTERNATIONAL COOPERATIVE HOUSING FOUNDATION FOR ASIA AND THE PASIFIC entitled:

FIRST ASIAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATIVES HOUSING CONFERENCE ON POVERTY AND SLUMS
Organiser: The National Land Finance Cooperative Society Limited, Malaysia
Location : Wisma Tun Sambanthan
Fee : FREE
Attendee : 100 participants throught Asia Pacific
It was launchend by the Secretary General of Minister of Development and Cooperative Malaysia.

I knew nothing about this conference and I was not prepared at all. The solid reason why I attended this conferencde was just because to get some knowledge:
a. How found a cooperative...
b. How to cooperative with other cooperatives international

It was my vision to come up with my own cooperative click here

Some of the itenaries were listed below:
a. Presentations of papers

Slums of Asian Cities: Role of cooperatives for improving their living conditions
Presenter : Dr M L Khurana
Secretary General, International Coop Housing for Asia and the Pasific
MD, Natioanal Cooperative Housing Federation of India

Slums of Asian Cities: Gender Equality
Presenter : Hajjah Zaitun Abd Rahman, KOWANIS , etc

Finally a few things were highlighted:

The rootcause of slums
- Slums rented out their houses fiven by Government to another person
- Those workers whom migrated from one place to build up a giant housing project
end up staying in the area eventhough it is already completed..thus it creats
another slums community
- Actually, people must move accordingly by a populated rate of 3% (cities) : 97%
(urban). Whereas now, where these slums community exist the rate is 60% : 40%
- The rental area for certain houses are very high as compared to job offered.
Thus who can afford to rent, turn up in slum areas

Solutions

1. The cooperative should take initiative to take part in the housing development project through PPP (Public Private Partnership). Some of the areas which is going to be developed will be managed PPP as much as 50% instead of giving them all to developers
2. Women should be given a chance to have a house. They seldom move here and there as compared to men.

What do I get from these conference? Well..learn to communicate with other people from another continents

Later in the night, I went to a dinner organised by Belia 4B Selangor at FEDERAL HOTEL in in Bukit Bintang. The MENU? AWESOME pals!

I was glad to attend this kinda gatheting..exposed to different horizons..


me..in the middle..it is good to be in the middle, isn't it?

Feel Good Being A Giverrrr......Believe it?

My mother came to see her grandchildren..

For the last three days, I was busy taking my mother and brother going here and there. They seldom come to my house due to so many uncertain works. So.. when they decided to come here...

So..the first day they were here, I took them to see my one if a villager whom just stayed a couple of blocks from my house. My mother had not met him for almost 10 years. I felt happy to take my mum to see him. We spent almost 2 hours talking about so many things.

The second day..I brought her to see one of our relatives in Cheras.. We left our house around 445pm..and arrived at Setiawangsa in advance to take a friend of mine to guide us..I knew nothing about the area very much. The time was like 620pm when we headed to the house... It was rainy the whole hours..and one thing in KL area... if there was such a rain..the traffic would be very slow.. Finally we reached the destinations almost 8pm.. Whereas, in a real circumstance, it will only take less than 30 mins.. Lucky I seldom face this kinda problem..

Later, we bumped into another friend house..celebrated his son's birthday...He was happened to be one my villagers in Kedah too..

Around 1030pm.. again we slowly crawled to my uncle house..lucky he was at home..Only then we came back to Kg Melayu Subang.. we reached home almost midnight..

And today.. we went to another villager house..in Selayang.. this was the first time I took my mother to see him and his family....after that we dropped by to another uncle house in Taman Melawati.. He got a big house..which costed about RM900K now.. when he bought the house 20 years ago..it was just RM230K...

Later we went to see my house in Pulau Indah Klang. It was almost 95% completed.. I might be moving in there early next year..

The most important things was I would be able to entertain my mother as the way during there days she was here... Previously, I couldn't seldom take her here and there due to commitment to work.. being a salaryman... now I am free.. as free as a bird...hopefully I can mantain it all the way...


Oh Mama! I luv U! I am happy to see her here..Too bad..my father couldn't join us... he was back in the Kedah..looking after his business.. and the house..
