WHY MALAYSIA BROADBAND IS SLOW

musicversion00 — Fri, 31 Oct 2014 20:29:42 +0800

for those who are not sure why malaysia broadband is slow, here is some statistic i would like to share

malaysia ranked #126 in terms of download speed. if you look at the list, kenya and zimbabwe actually faster than us lol

here is another article, only in BM thou

Possible explanation and fact :

for those who are not sure how internet works. i believe most of the malaysian accessing content from oversea, which is USA/UK/EU/etc

there is a detailed report which can be read here : https://medium.com/backchannel/jammed-e474fc4925e4

backup source : http://wikisend.com/download/264958/Jammed — Backchannel — Medium.pdf

in the report, it mentioned even in US, there are plenty of ppl experiencing bad internet usage and slow. while in malaysia case, i believe our infrastructure also similar but could be outdated compared to other countries. one of my findings is the BRAS (Broadband remote access server) actually shared with too many users and hence bottleneck

personally im on 8mbps streamyx, you can test how fast is your download to oversea (USA) : http://testmy.net/download

click the dropdown menu "Select test size" according to your package.. if you are on 4mb.. choose 4mb as well, 8mb user, choose 8mb as well. other speed choose accordingly

after run the download test, most of the time i only get 1000 kbps plus.. sometimes can get 2000 kbps... only. so you can imagine our broadband quality is pretty bad.. for those who wondering, but why streamyx marketing telling everyone it is 8mb? or 4mb, unifi = 5mb, etc.. all those advertised speed they only tell you maximum achievable speed within country (LAN only). but what is that for anyway? do they expect all streamyx user only use their line to access content within malaysia? if most of ur usage is outside malaysia, then u gonna have bad internet experience.

conclusion : for those who are TLDR type, the report link i posted above basically is saying isp refuse to upgrade "network to network" connection.. because of business competition!

basically look like this

USA content(youtube for eg) <--> ISP network (biz A) <---> ISP network (biz B) <--> end user (which is you)

for those who are in IT, you should know that TCP/IP packets travel at shortest possible route and it wont matter which network belong to whom. so during peak hours, the packets from server, travels to isp network A and towards isp network B before reaching the end consumer.

so the story ends like this, suppose you complain youtube or something slow, TM will only check their own network.. eventhough tcp packets might coming from TIME network/YTL or Maxis network before reaching TM.. so there you go, TM claimed cannot do anything because not their responsibility.

while the TM competitor like jaring, time, ytl, etc.. would be delighted because TM user having shitty experience. however this doesnt mean they wont have problem.. as i said previously tcp packets travel all over and everywhere, it doesnt recognize which network belong to whom. so if maxis user complain slow..the same case apply, which means some tcp packet will route thru TM network first, then towards the maxis network..before reaching the end consumer.

hence because of business competition, this unethical practice and refuse to upgrade "network to network" infrastructure putting the whole consumer in jeopardy. at the end..malaysia ranked among the bad in ISP download category which put us on the same par with kenya and zimbawe.

The Truth Revealed, Origins of Malays & Chinese

musicversion00 — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 19:19:19 +0800

QUOTE

The Truth Revealed: Chinese were the First in Malaysia not Malays

In June 1998, the Government of Malaysia had hired a team of international experts to gather here in Malaysia for a research project to compliment the history studies that we undertook in our secondary schools.

The objective of the research is simply:

1. To find proof and evidence that show the Malays were the origins of Malaysia and they were the first race and religion that landed their feet in Malaysia.

2. To further strengthen their claims, first they need to find the graveyard of the Hang Tuah, Hang Jebat, Hang Lekiu and others.. to show the existence of their pioneers.

3. The Batu Bersurat in Terengganu reveals that the islamic religion has landed in Malaysia for more than 100 years ago which further strengthens their claims!

Since the year 2000, does anybody recall studying about HANG TUAH in any school syllabus?

Here is the evidence by a combined team of scientists, archaeologists, historians from the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Canada, Yemen & Russia.

First Evidence

They found the graveyard of Hang Tuah, Hang Jebat and others, their skeletons had been analyzed and samples of DNA taken with the results showing: Hang Tuah, Hang Jebat, Hang Lekiu and mates were NOT MALAY!!! They were CHINESE origins (Islamic) from China!!! Why were they here in Malacca? If you go back in history, you would know that they were on a mission to protect the Malay Sultanate from the frequent attacks by the Kingdom of SIAM (Thailand).
So Hang Tuah was not a Malay hero! They were the protectors of Parameswara (who was from INDONESIA) who landed in Malacca and claimed that the land belonged to him!
Hang Tuah and friends were all from China , they were assigned to the Malacca Sultanate because Parameswara requested the Ming Dynasty Emperor for protection! Hence, the rich historical heritage of the Babas & Nyonyas were being closely linked to the Seven Voyages to the Western Ocean by Admiral Zheng He who incidentally was a Chinese Muslim himself!

Note: Remember Princess Hang Li Poh? - All surname 'HANG'

Second Evidence:

The researchers hired by the Malaysian Government found the oldest tombstones in Kelantan in year 2000. Surprisingly, the tombstones were at least 900 years old! Older than the so-called Batu Bersurat. And the interesting thing was that they all belonged to the CHINESE!

Landing first in Malacca doesn't mean that Malays were the first in Malaysia because during that time, the roads were undeveloped for them to reach the other side of the coast where the Chinese had actually landed much earlier.

If you want the hard evidence, please write to The Federal Association of Archaeology & Research of Michigan, USA.

Shockingly, the Ministry of Education has removed this topic from the history syllabus in all schools. What are they trying to hide?

what basically amanah saham 1msia is you'll get RM5000 loan (5 years term)from bank, and need to pay fixed amount monthly around rm84, by the end of the month they return you back around rm130

how long this can rm130 payout can last? too good to be true? or is it just bait for coming soon election?
