SharePoint 2010, the way moving forward ?
Until a few years ago, the demand for SharePoint 2003 developers and engineers in Malaysia was very low. But the demand picked up for developers and engineers knowledgeable in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 or better known as MOSS 2007. And recently, Microsoft announced a new product called SharePoint 2010. It is the new version of MOSS 2007 and I guess SharePoint 2010 will have more followers in Malaysia.
Seems like Microsoft is betting their future in SharePoint and related technologies. More and more features or stand-alone products has been nicely integrated with SharePoint 2007. The same goes for SharePoint 2010 as well. I guess this trend will continue for future versions of SharePoint.
As in most new software products, SharePoint needs more power. Check out the requirements here.
Other technologies tightly integrated with SharePoint are MS-SQL 2005/2008, .NET 3 / 3.5 , IE 7 and Windows 2003/2008.
So, for those Microsoft technology enthusiasts, SharePoint is the way to go !!

Enterprise 2.0, the way forward
Enterprise 2.0 are the new phenomenon in the business and social world. Basically it means organizations that enables and encourages true collaboration between employees as well between a organization with its key stakeholders such the customers and suppliers.
There are many motivations for organizations to embrace the Enterprise 2.0 culture. Highly distributed employees, more educated and demanding customers, and suppliers who are hard pressed to continuously improve product (& services) quality while at the time reduce cost and price of their offering. Only a truly collaborative environment can ensure the success of an organization in this competitive environment. The demand for social computing tools will also come from the younger generation of employees who will have a Facebook or Twitter account way before they join the workforce.
In the very near term, organizations must incorporate becoming an Enterprise 2.0 organization as part of the corporate strategy. The actions to be come an Enterprise 2.0 must come from the CEO and no one else. IT must given support to introduce tools that integrates seamlessly into employees' workflow. HR must come up with process and incentives to encourage employees to share and collaborate. Business groups must include knowledge capture using social computing tools as part of their day job. Finance must be able to capture the business value of true collaboration. and above all, the CEO must play an active role to make all these work!

SCORE - Sarawak Corridor of Renewable Energy
You may have heard thousands of time about the famous MSC (Multimedia Super Corridor) but have you have ever heard of SCORE - Sarawak Corridor of Renewable Energy ??
When I first heard about SCORE, I imagined clean energy .. I imagined some kind of research being done around the areas of clean and sustainable/renewable energy such as heat/light from the sun or wind power or hidro/wave power on the sea etc, so I told myself to do some research to understand this effort more ....
BUT to my dismay this is not the case ... actually it is a very misleading term being used the relevant parties .. really misleading and disappointing
It says it has a very large deposit (1.46 billion tonnes) of coal ? I guess the state or the players intend to fully extract and burn it to produce cheap electricity??? so much for my imagination on clean energy !!
Looking at their strategies and priority industries, quite soon Sarawak will also be choked with one of the greatest pollutions in this region and environmental disaster
Its funny .. the website says one of the benefits are increase in quality of life ? How can that be? I guess , whoever it may be, only considers income level as the yardstick for quality of life !!!
