It’s down to the final four Malaysian astronaut candidates. And one of them is a woman, engineer S. Vanajah.The other three are Dr Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor, dentist Dr Faiz Khaleed and pilot Mohammed Faiz Kamaluddin. They were the final group whittled down from the initial 11,000 applicants.The announcement was made today by Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, who said the final four had been found to be competent after all the mental and physical tests."We adopted a very scientific and objective approach in selecting the astronauts, because the one person who will finally represent the country should be better than the others," he said at the Royal Malaysia Air Force base in Subang .He said the selected candidates would next undergo two weeks of stringent training in Moscow, after which the final two would be selected.Both the chosen candidates will undergo a further 18-month stint at Star City Moscow, before the final person is picked for the International Space Station (ISS) expedition in October next year.Malaysia’s astronaut programme was part of a package deal arising from Malaysia’s purchase of 18 Sukhoi SU-30MKN fighter jets from Russia.Najib added that the Russian Government had offered in return a place for a Malaysian to join Russian cosmonauts on the expedition to the ISS in October."The entire process has generated a lot of national interest and the person finally selected has to be the creme de la creme," he said."That candidate will be representing Malaysia."Cost of Malaysia's astronaut programme: RM92.9m to be offset as part of the RM3.34b defence deal to buy 18 Sukhoi SU-30MKN fighter jets from Russia Dr Sheikh Muszaphar ShukorAge: 34Occupation: Medical doctorMarital status: Single Q: What are your chances of winning?A: I am a very focused person. When I put my mind to it, I believe I can achieve anything.Q: How will you react if you are not in the final two?A: Anything can happen. But if I am not selected, I will continue to impart my knowledge of astronomy and get more youths involved in it.Q: Why do you think you should be selected?A: I have the right attitude. I have both the mental and physical strength. At the moment, I jog and swim daily to build my strength. I am also learning Russian so that I will be able to converse with them during the two-week training there.Q: Did you expect to win?A: It was a mixed feeling. One part knew I did well but another part told me that the other seven were also good. Q: Is it true you are also a part-time model?A: Yes, I have been modelling for the past two years. But my real passion is medicine and astronomy. Both have fascinated me since I was 10 years old.Q: How badly do you want to win?A: I would do anything.

Q: How do you feel being the only woman in the programme?A: For the first time in my life, I see gender-equality. Both men and women go through the same mental and physical tests. They are selected not on gender but capability. I feel honoured and I hope I have inspired women to work harder to achieve their dreams.Q: What are your hopes?A: I wish there were more women standing with me today. If I could make it this far, there are other women who are better than me and could have made it too.Q: Who is your greatest supporter?A: My dad.Q: When did you first develop an interest in astronomy?A: Since I was 10, I have wondered what was beyond the sky and what made the stars shine so brightly. I often looked up at nights to study the pattern of the stars and wonder how I could go there to learn more about them.Q: What are your chances of being picked as the winner?A: I have made it this far and I have the mental and physical strength to pull through more stringent tests in Russia.Q: What are your plans after the programme?A: I want to be involved with the National Space Agency and run programmes and activities to interest youths in the programme and exploration of outer space.Q: How would you describe yourself?A: I am a very active person.

It’s like you are more than what you can do. If you are focused, your body is really stronger than you think. Your mind is a lot stronger than you might think. So it is good for me to be out of the comfort zone.Q: How have you found all the tests so far?A: It gets harder each time. But I expected that. I am looking forward to tougher challenges.Q: What has been your toughest moment so far?A: Using the centrifuge, and surviving in the jungle with sleep deprivation. But I don’t see it as a problem. It is something you learn. You can still work. If you are focused, you can do anything. I am so glad I joined this programme.Q: How have you coped with learning Russian as well?A: It’s tough, but I am learning a few words like "how do you" and "hello".

More water meters go missing?? YAU MOU GAU....CHOR!!

FIRST it was the metal drain gratings, and now thieves are stealing water meters. About eight such meters were stolen at Taman Pelabuhaan recently and its residents are not amused. Bryan Tan said he had a shock last week when the water meter outside his house at Lorong Tenggiri 1, went missing. “I turned on the tap in the house and found that there was no water,” he said. “At first I thought there was an unscheduled water cut but realised later that the water meter was missing,” he said. Tan said his neighbours had a similar experience. “Water meters from a row of seven houses were stolen,” he said.

Bryan, who lodged a police report at the Klang Police headquarters, said it was distressing, as water supply to the homes had been disrupted. “We paid RM60.25 for each meter to be replaced,” he said. “It is ridiculous as it is no fault of ours. We hope the police would patrol the neighbourhood more frequently, especially in the afternoons and in the wee hours of the morning. “If this can be done, it might curb such thefts,” he added. A spokesman from Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor in Kuala Lumpur said the fee charged to replace a water meter “was a requirement.” “Our staff in Klang had responded fast to replace the meters and reconnect the water supply, thus easing residents’ inconvenience.” Those with similar situations can call Syabas at 1800 88 5252.

Twister at Subang Jaya, Malaysia??? YAU MOU GAU....CHOR!!

30 minutes that spelt chaos

Photo Gallery

SUBANG JAYA: Residents in this densely populated suburb outside Petaling Jaya thought a hurricane must have swept across their neighbourhood when a freak storm that lasted 30 minutes uprooted trees, blew off roofs, toppled over lampposts and caused chaos.

The worst-hit areas were SS14, SS17 and SS18, where the residents described the blustery weather conditions that started at 3pm yesterday as “nothing like they had ever seen before.”
SRK Subang Jaya in SS14/5 had to summon parents to take the pupils home after the winds tore away part of the roof and sent tiles flying.

“We rushed all our pupils into the school hall just in time, before the flying tiles hit the classrooms, offices and cars,” said the school’s evening principal Rokiah Shariff. The school will remain closed until repairs have been made.
Besides houses and property ravaged by the storm, hundreds of cars were also damaged by flying debris and falling trees and branches. No one was injured.

The Meteorological Department, when contacted, was unable to explain the phenomenon.
In the aftermath of the storm, major roads in Subang Jaya and USJ were impassable due to uprooted trees and fallen billboards and street lamps, which blocked the way.
Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ) and Alam Flora contractors were later deployed to remove the obstacles.

MPSJ public relations officer Azfarizal Abdul Rashid said affected residents could call the MPSJ hotline (03-5637 6545) or the complaints unit (03-8026 3131 ext 2212) if they needed help in clearing the mess.

“We have contractors and cranes on standby in every zone to help the residents,” he said.
Those whose cars were crushed by fallen trees should take photographs of the damage to support their claims against the MPSJ, he added.

Sah! SITI bercinta!!

Bukan gosip lagi bahawa Siti Nurhaliza sedang dilamun cinta.
Tetapi persoalannya, siapakah jejaka yang berjaya menawan hatinya itu?

AKHIRNYA penyanyi wanita paling popular, Siti Nurhaliza mula berbicara mengenai cinta. Walaupun enggan mendedahkan nama jejaka yang berjaya menawan hatinya, gadis manis ini mengakui dia sudah dewasa dan cukup matang untuk membincangkannya.


“Ya, memang saya sedang berkawan dengan seseorang,” katanya ketika ditanya jika sudah ada lelaki yang berjaya menawan hatinya. Siti ditemui ketika menghadiri majlis ‘Breakfast With The Stars’ di Kuala Lumpur, kelmarin.Terdahulu, dalam majlis Anugerah Bintang Popular Berita Harian (ABPBH) 2005, 26 Februari lalu, Siti dalam ucapannya selepas diumumkan pemenang kategori Penyanyi Wanita Popular berkata, “...terima kasih kepada keluarga dan yang disayangi.”Kenyataan spontan itu mengundang tepukan gemuruh lebih 5,000 penonton di Arena of Stars, Genting Highlands. Malah, hos ABPBH 2005, Raja Azura sempat mengusik si jelita popular ini dengan kata-kata, “Siapa yang disayangi tu? Tak sebut nama pun!” Siti sempat mengerling nakal ke arah Kak Engku sambil menuding jari telunjuknya.Esoknya, Hip juga dihujani panggilan telefon dan e-mel yang ingin tahu sama ada gosip cinta Siti dengan seorang ahli perniagaan bergelar ‘Datuk K’ ada kebenarannya.Bagaimanapun, ketika ditanya apakah lelaki yang berjaya memiliki hatinya itu ialah ‘Datuk K’, yang sering dikaitkan dengan dirinya sebelum ini, Siti enggan menafikan atau mengesahkannya.“Jangan risau... Siti pasti akan memberitahu semua bila tiba waktunya,” janjinya yang terus cuba merahsiakan identiti buah hatinya itu, walaupun selepas dipujuk wartawan.

Begitupun, sepanjang memperkatakan mengenai soal cinta, Siti cukup ceria dan sesekali kelihatan tersipu-sipu malu.“Sebagai selebriti, saya akur ramai yang ingin tahu perkara terkini mengenai Siti. Cuma apa yang ingin saya tekankan, setiap jawapan yang Siti berikan adalah dengan kehendak Siti sendiri dan bukannya untuk memuaskan semua orang.“Apa pun terserah kepada semua untuk membuat tafsiran,” katanya yang mengaku kadang kala agak tertekan dengan soalan berkaitan jodoh, namun dia sudah cukup bersedia menghadapinya.Beberapa minggu sebelum itu, dalam majlis Malam Amal Kasih anjuran Ace Event Management Sdn Bhd, kehadiran seorang lelaki kacak yang kebetulan memakai rona baju yang sama dengan Siti menarik minat wartawan yang hadir membuat liputan.“Tolong, ini majlis amal dan saya tidak mahu komen,” lembut nada suaranya yang menolak permintaan wartawan apabila ditanya sama ada beliaulah ‘Datuk K’ yang dikatakan bertakhta di hati penyanyi ‘idaman lelaki Malaya’ itu.Lelaki yang dimaksudkan itu adalah Pengerusi Ace Group Company, Datuk Khalid Muhd Jiwa yang kemudian terus bingkas bangun beredar dan sekali lagi meminta media yang sedang mengerumuninya agar menghormati majlis.
