Obama Official Visits to Malaysia (26th-28th April 2014)

Gambar-gambar di bawah adalah diambil dari antara jurugambar rasmi lawatan Obama ke Malaysia 26-28 Apr 2014. Dari banyak sudut, aku sangat suka melihat bagaimana sistem team Presiden US ini bekerja (Sejak menonton rancangan National Geography) etc. Banyak yang boleh pegawai-pegawai kerajaan lihat dan belajar dari team ini. Apa yang saudara Wazari ini share sangat membuka memberikan aku inspirasi tentang bagusnya mereka bekerja.

Semoga dapat membuka mata kalian ...


Sama Ada Anda Suka Atau Tidak Subjek Dalam Gambar, Itu Masalah Anda, Yang Penting Kami Melakukan Tugas Merakam Sejarah Untuk Negara | Hargailah Kerja Photojournalist | Obama Sampai Jam 5PM Lebih, Team (Jabatan Penerangan Malaysia) Sampai di Parlimen Jam 12PM | Biasanya Untuk Sambutan Rasmi Di Parlimen Untuk Seorang President, Sejam Awal Pun Dah Ok, Tapi Secret Service Mereka Betul-Betul Buat Kerja, Nothing Left To Chance | Setiap Tempat Duduk Menteri-Menteri Di Periksa Rapi, Setiap Satu, Setiap Kamera Baik Kamera Video Atau DSLR Di Periksa Satu2, Selain Menggunakan Anjing Pengesan, Human Manual Check by Security Mereka Juga Di Lakukan | Apapun Syukur Alhamdulillah, Mulanya Hujan Turun Sampai Memungkinkan Sambutan Di Lakukan Dalam Parlimen Tapi Dalam Jam 5PM Hujan Berhenti...

ATTENTION To DETAILS | Officer Dari White House Menggunakan Handheld Light-Meter Untuk Tengok Keadaan Lighting Di Mana Barack Obama dan Najib Razak Akan Memberi Ucapan | Lepas Dia Cek, Dia Datang Ke Tempat Kami Jurufoto Dan Bertanyakan Sama Ada Keadaan Lighting Ok Atau Tidak Sambil Melihat Ke Dalam LCD Kamera Saya (Tapi Masa Dia Tengok LCD Kamera Saya Takde Pulak Org Amik Gambar).

Bendera Pun Dia Ejas Bagi Nampak Elok | Org Yang Sama Jugak
Yg Check Lighting Guna Light Meter / Exposure Meter

Kerja Officer Ni Pulak Check Sound System | Banyak Kali Dia Cek, Supaya "Bunyi Sedap" Sampai Tak Larat Nak Amik Gambar Dia Pasal Banyak Kali Test Sound | Hasilnya, Bunyi Memang Sedap Dalam Dewan Ni (Seri Perdana) Tak Terlalu Kuat, Tak Perlahan Sangat, Just Nice...

Joint Press Conference at Seri Perdana | Kepada Yg Bertanya Jarak Photographer Dan Stage | Gambar Ni Saya Rakam Guna 16mm

Sebelum Kedatangan Obama Ke Malaysia, Kami, Kebanyakan Pengamal Media Membayangkan Betapa Suakrnya Nak Ambil Gambar, Maklumlah Obama Ni Pemimpin Kuasa Besar Dunia, Dah Tentu Kawalan Ketat.

Ya, Menag Betul, Kawalan Sangat Ketat, Semua Pihak Media Perlu Berada Di Setiap Lokasi Seawal 3 Jam, Untuk Security Check, Dan Jumlah Media Jugak Terhad, Tak Boleh Ramai, Yg Mana Tak Dapat Gambar Tu Kena "Pool" Gambar.

Contoh Macam di Masjid Negara, Di Seri Perdana, Jumah Media Yg Boleh Buat Liputan Memang Terhad, Mungkin Sebab Security Atau Sebab Lain, Tetapi Untuk Pihak Media Yg Dah Lepas Security Check, Tiada Masalah Ambil Gambar, Boleh Dikatakan Tidak Ada Siapapun Yang DiGanggu Oleh Secret Service Mereka | Secret Service Hanya Tengok Dari Jauh Sahaja | Takde Blocking2

Kalau You All Tengok Set Up Ni, Memang Dapat Gambar, Cuma Mungkin Ada Moment Yg Kita Terlepas Atas Kesilapan Atau Kelalaian Sendiri

Cuba Tengom Suratkhabar Sehari DUa Ni, Ada Nampak Hasil Gambar Yang Macam "Berebut-Rebut" Takde Kan, Clean Shot Jer...

Tahun 2014 Ni Hanya Ada Dua Press Conference Yang Akan Diingati Sepanjang Kerjaya, Setakat Inilah | Iaitu Press Conference MH370 dan Joint Press Conference Barack Obama Dan Najib Razak

Macam Rumah Sendiri Pulak Dorang Buat... Caption & Photo by Wazari Wazir

A Moment To Remember

Sound Test | You All Nampak Tak Apa Yang Saya "Nampak" | Sampai Begitu "Detail" Mereka Buat Kerja | "Skin Tone" Orang Yang Akan Berucap Di Pentas Pun Di Ambil Kira, Bukan Main Belasah Jer | So Photographer/Videographer Boleh Buat Adjustment Exposure | They are Very Professional | Yang Baik Kita Ikut La, Supaya Kita Pun Boleh Jadi Professional Atau Lebih Baik Dari Mereka

APA YANG KITA BELAJAR DARI LAWATAN OBAMA KE MALAYSIA?

"Written by Kamarul Akhir, Jurugambar Professional"

Impak apabila Obama datang ke Malaysia kepada jurufoto media di Malaysia.
Ada yang suka, ada yang benci, ada yang puji ada yang caci mengenai lawatan kerja Obama ke Malaysia baru baru ini.

Seronok rasanya tengok surat khabar sehari dua ni mengenai liputan foto lawatan Obama di Kuala Lumpur.

Rata rata gambar yang di hasilkan dari jurufoto media yang bertugas semuanya Nice & Clean.
Pahlawan Keyboard yang sepanjang masa duduk mengadap komputer siang malam pagi petang, mungkin tak faham apa yang saya maksudkan ini.

Harapan saya ialah pegawai di Jabatan yang berkaitan, Pihak berkuasa tempatan, Event Manager, Konsultan, Sukuriti, Mata Mata Gelap, Yang Gelap Mata, Mak Jemah, Pak Din, Ucu, Angah dapat belajar sesuatu dari petugas petugas media dan pengawal keselamatan yang mengiringi Obama dari jarak sederhana walaupun Obama ni berisiko tinggi.

Mereka buat ujian suara di mikrofon berkali kali sebelum acara bermula, mereka buat ujian pencahayaan tone kulit di pentas mengikut keperluan jurufoto media & jurukamera TV, mereka berkomunikasi dengan baik dengan wakil media.

Tiada bunga besar atas meja makan, tiada asap berkepul kepul tiba tiba ada depan VVVIP, tiada pak pacak interframe, tiada gimik pelancaran yang tak relevan dengan majlis, tiada pegawai protokol atau sukuriti dok hambat jurufoto sedangkan sepanjang panjang jalan VVVIP jalan, dia yang berdiri depan jurufoto dan halang jurufoto menjalankan tugas.


Cuba bezakan how the locals work ..

Bak kata Wazari Wazir, Yang Baik Kita Ikut La, Supaya Kita Pun Boleh Jadi Professional Atau Lebih Baik Dari Mereka.

## Kamarul Akhir tak membuat liputan lawatan Obama ke Malaysia, cuma sempat la jugak memotret Bekas Presiden USA, Bill Clinton dan Timbalan Presiden USA, Al Gore ketika mereka berada di Malaysia satu masa dahulu.

Sekian.

Impressions



Aku pun muak melihat orang-orang yang kipas so called orang atasan etc.. cukuplah kita sekadar hormat mereka seperti sepatutnya dan tidak melebih-lebih.

Sesungguhnya semua manusia sama sahaja disisi Pencipta ...pangkat, darjat, harta dan kedudukan hanyalah pinjaman sementara.

Maka rugilah kita bila melakukan sesuatu utk penghargaan manusia, nama, pangkat dan harta. Tiada nilai lah apa yg kita dilakukan di sisiNya.

Microsoft Office Boy



A jobless man applied for the position of "office boy" at Microsoft.

The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the floor as a test.

"You are employed." He said." Give me your e-mail address and I'll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start."

The man replied "But I don't have a computer, neither an email."

I'm sorry", said the HR manager, "If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have the job."

The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only $10 in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10Kg tomato crate. He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the Operation three times, and returned home with $60. The man realized that he can survive by this Way, and started to go everyday earlier, and return late Thus, his money doubled or tripled every day.


Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles. 5 years later , the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the US .

He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance.

He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan. When the conversation was concluded, the broker asked him his email. The man replied, "I don't have an email". The broker answered curiously, "You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an email?!!"

The man thought for a while and replied, "Yes, I'd be an office boy at Microsoft!"

Moral of the story:

M1 - Internet is not the solution to your life.

M2 - If you don't have internet, and work hard, you can be a millionaire.

M3 - If you received this message, you are closer to being an office boy, than a millionaire. .........

Have a great day!!!

Fresh Graduate: Having a stylish luxury car ..its a trap!

Which one represents you?
Tq Aini Qamariah for the information shared on ur timeline ..pls let me share the insights (based on research) with my friends who can see this picture.

"Today i would like to share some facts, sebab masuk colloquium ni dengar perbentangan dari kajian yg dah disahkan. Very interesting :

1. Gov expected GDP per capita in 2020 to be RM48,000.00 (toooo ambitious i think).

2. Malaysian household debts increase sharply in 6 years, average 12% per year (gila, banyak gila hutang naik, Malaysian suka berhutang, i think?)

3. Major contribution of household debts is CAR LOAN.

4. Malaysian malu tak ada kereta, tapi tak malu tak ada rumah sendiri (rasa macam kena penampar aje)

5. Malaysian gagal meletakkan keutamaan pemilikan. Suka memiliki depriciation aset dari memiliki appriciation aset (car vs house, hp gadjet vs certificate)

6. 90% malaysians have their own car, and 60% have more than 1 car.

Ok, cukup-cukup. Aku salah masuk room ni, ini room paper economy, tapi key facts ni sangat interesting.

So, you out there, any comments?"
