Rebirth of T-rex

Today I have learnt a new business strategy which is called 'Prosumer', it should be the combination of 'Producer' and 'Consumer'. It is based on the concept of 'corporation' (Koperasi in Malay), in which the 'public wealth' is shared among the so called investor. It was introduced by the Europe economist back in the 19th century to break the monopoly of the rich or higher status community. During that time, the rich or higher status community will remain rich and having comfortable living, while the poor will always be poor. There is no chance for the predecessor to 'over turn' their 'fate', thus revolution or riot was raised to over turn the government, however when the new leader and the community took over, the same situation happened. Thus, the economist proposed 'corporation' to gather very small amount of money from the poor, then these money are used to purchase necessity directly from the provider or producer with lower price and the goods are sold to the contributers of the corporation and the corporation make some income from it, yet the price is much cheaper. At year end, when the profit are shared among the contributors. Thus, sharing the 'public wealth'. In this situation, the consumer 'spend and save' at the same time, thus the concept of 'Prosumer'. In today's world, when it is applied in some businesses, it will produce a great impact to the consumer, rather than selling, the consumer just need to consume the daily products, at the same time earning profit out of it.

Last weekend, I went down to Melaka to visit my lovely gf as usual. It's kind like a routine as if I am going to work everyday, I don't feel any burden or reluctant to do so, any how, because I am meeting my love one mah :P. We went to pray at the temple on Saturday morning (because the next day was Wesak Day) and planned to perform the ritual ceremony to 'bathe the god', but the temple didn't provide that. So, on Sunday afternoon, we went to another temple near my gf's house to perform the ritual ceremony. It was so nice that someone guided us the correct procedure to do so. In fact, as planned, I was supposed to meet up a good friend on Saturday, however, due to some emergency case, he couldn't make it. So, hope to be able to meet him on the coming holiday.

Yesterday, as schedule, one of our company's partner came over for a meeting to discuss about one of the prototype I am working on. When I was trying to show her and my CTO the prototype that I had secreted crafted without my CTO noticing it, both our partner and CTO were impressed. Later, the Vice President came over and took a look too! He advised me on some of the things to be improved and hint me to give another 'surprise'!

While continue to work on the prototype today, my CTO called up to ask me to visit one of our customer to provide some support and consultation on preparing them to perform a testing to compare an existing application with the one we have simulated using our company's product. I met quite a number of obstacle as this is the first time I am working on a real testing tool and scenario. I have consulted my colleagues and even my CTO, however, to no avail, I did't managed to convince them to the testing approach that was expected. Never the less, I managed to learn up a lot of things especially in terms of consultancy, problem solving and 'red alert' on my vision to be 'evengelist'.

Tomorrow I will be attending Java Forum at Subang Summit Hotel, in which we will be celebrating Java 10th anniversary. Hope it will be an interesting event.
