ACCA and results...
August 23rd, 2010 - ACCA results just came out. I took 3 papers, F4: Corporate and Business Law, F6: Taxation and F7: Financial Reporting; and I failed all papers. This is not my first time I fail in ACCA exams but this time around I'm totally disappointed because I failed ALL PAPERS! I studied hard but no luck for me this time around. I believe in myself to be a successful person, we have to face the failure. Failure makes us stronger and better person. This is we called ACCA.

Original Blackberry VS AP Blackberry
As you know, AP Blackberry price relatively cheaper as compared to the original Blackberry. What makes different between AP and Original Blackber y (authorize reseller) it just the AP set might be recondition set or second hand from overseas or a new one from overseas but sell here (Malaysia). Some people willing to pay more as long as original set. Original Blackberry set sales low because when you service or repair the phone it takes at least 1-2months which I think it is so ridiculous even though some of mobile operator did provide temporary hp but sometimes you have to wait for the temporary hp available to lend. The AP set at least takes 3 working days to repair. Furthermore, the service centre located in Singapore which I think very stupid company like Blackberry who set up the service centre in Singapore and not in Malaysia for Malaysian market service centre. So when you purchase Blackberry in Malaysia, think twice before you buy. Especially with the original set.

MAS A380s Delay Again and Again...
Airbus SAS, the world's largest maker of commercial aircraft, has deferred delivery of Malaysia Airlines' MAS) first of six superjumbo A380s for a third time, without giving a reason. MAS A380 one of the most anticipated aircraft.
The national carrier will now take delivery of its first plane in the first half of 2012 instead of August 2011.It is unclear whether the airline will be compensated for the delay in the delivery of the aircraft. The list price of one A380 is US$315 million (RM1 billion).The new delay in delivery will be a setback for MAS' plans to increase capacity on high-density routes such as London and Sydney. MAS' parent company Penerbangan Malaysia Bhd had initially ordered the six A380s in 2003 for delivery from January 2007 to December 2008.
The delivery of the aircraft was deferred to January 2011 and then to August 2011, due to Airbus encountering problems ramping up the pace of its A380 production, in part because of the large amount of customisation of each plane.It then had to scale back deliveries of its A380s for 2009 and 2010 after customers deferred orders due to the economic crisis.It was reported that MAS had received in excess of RM330 million so far in compensation for the delays.
I think MAS should purchase Boeing 747-8 later on to replace its Boeing 747-400. The delay really take a long time for MAS and it will effect MAS for modernisng its fleets. From my perspective view, MAS should purchase B787 to make direct flight to New York, Stockholm, Zurich, Moscow, Buenos Aires, Milan, Manchester, Berlin, Dublin etc in order to capture the market shares and increase MAS' profit in future. 787 is single aisle aircraft reducing the maintenance cost and further more this aircraft suitable for long haul with low load factor.

Dearest Malaysia Airlines
Dear Malaysia Airlines,
I do hope that Malaysia Airlines could replace its older 777-200ER with 777-300ER with latest in-flight entertainment and include with first class on board in order to compete other airlines such as Emirates, Singapore Airlines and Cathay Pacific. More over with a new fleet, it will significantly reduce on cost-per-passenger and enhance customers' flight experience.
Beside that, Malaysia Airlines should purchase Boeing 787 or Airbus 350 that will be used for new routes in future such as Milan, Manchester, Berlin, Dublin, Moscow etc. The aircraft can accommodate lesser passenger compared to Boeing 777-300 or Airbus 340 but the demand on that sector relatively low so Boeing 787 or Airbus 350 is a great choice for that routes.
Malaysia Airlines had bought 6 Airbus 380 and waiting for the delivery late 2011. The aircraft it is not just big but it will give passenger a great pleasure when they ride on the World's Biggest Aircraft. Thus Airbus 380 will significantly increase Malaysia Airlines' name through out the world. Sometimes, the passenger will choose the aircraft based on size of the fleet. From my point of view, Malaysia Airlines should not purchase just 6 A380 but 11 A380. The aircraft can be used for Amsterdam (daily route), London (twice daily route), Taipei-Los Angels (3 times weekly), Sydney (twice daily route), Paris (reduce from 14 times weekly to 10 times weekly with combination of A380 and B777) and Nagoya-San Francisco (3 times weekly). Besides that, Malaysia Airlines should have SPA and shower on their A380 that will give the best 5-star flight experience like-no-other.
