nie yang aKu terbaCa semalam kat kolum, Utusan Malaysia bertArikh Isnin 2hb Ogos, 2010, buat reNungan berSama... hu hu hu...;

"Dilema duda tak selaris janda, terbiar tanpa dipedulikan"

MARILAH kita berhenti bicara soal politik yang menyesakkan seketika dan melihat pada permasalahan kami, para duda yang terbiar tanpa dipedulikan ini.

Pelamin anganku musnah, kusangka panas hingga ke petang tetapi hujan di tengah hari. Itulah kata-kata yang tepat untuk kami yang semakin ramai ini. Kami juga pada mulanya berimpian agar mahligai yang dibina berkekalan, namun takdir tidak menyebelahi kami.

Punca perceraian kami juga adalah seperti kebanyakan janda tetapi tidak adalah antara kami yang berpisah kerana tak rela dimadukan. Seperti wanita yang menjadi mangsa lelaki, kami juga menjadi mangsa kedurjanaan wanita. Kejamnya wanita!

Jika wanita menzalimi wanita dengan merampas suami orang maka kami juga begitu, tidak sangka ada lelaki yang merampas isteri kami. Kejamnya lelaki ini! Nasib kami juga adalah ibarat tebu, habis madu sepah dibuang. Wanita agak beruntung kerana sekiranya habis madu, mereka masih dapat bermadu.

Masalah kami ialah tiadanya wanita bermata keranjang yang cuba menggoda kami. Namun janganlah mengambil kesempatan atas kelemahan kami. Ingin rasanya menubuhkan Persatuan Jan Dud, ini mungkin menjadikan hidup lebih bermakna. Mungkin boleh diadakan aktiviti berdangdut dipetang minggu. Kerap juga di muka pintu menunggu lamaran namun hampa. Dimanakan ku bawa hati yang lara ini.

DUDA BERGAYA

Palm extends rally, climbs to 3-month high

Salam Semua...

Quoted from Business Times, 03.8.2010;

PALM oil futures rose to the highest level in more than three months yesterday after reports showed that sales from Malaysia, the second-biggest producer, gained last month.October-delivery futures advanced as much as 2.1 per cent to RM2,570 a metric ton on the Malaysia Derivatives Exchange, the highest level since April 27, and traded at RM2,565 at 5.15 pm in Kuala Lumpur. Prices added 6.1 per cent in July, the biggest monthly gain in five.

Palm oil exports from Malaysia climbed 4.4 per cent in July to 1,412,300 tons from a month earlier, market surveyor Intertek said July 31. Rival Societe Generale de Surveillance said sales gained 4.7 per cent to 1,402,317 tons last month. Crude oil rose to the highest in four days as Asian stocks rallied after China’s manufacturing rose in July, increasing the appeal of palm oil as a biofuel feedstock. September-delivery crude oil added as much as 0.7 per cent to US$79.53 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

“Everything seems to be supportive for palm oil today,” said Ryan Long, a trader at OSK Investment Bank Sdn Bhd. “Better- than-expected exports from Malaysia and higher crude are all pointing to a firm trend. The only negative is a strong ringgit.”The ringgit rose to a two-year high on optimism investors will pump more funds into Asian assets as regional economies lead the recovery from a global recession, raising the cost for palm oil buyers. The currency advanced as much as 1 per cent to 3.1514 per dollar in Kuala Lumpur, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

La Nina, which brings above-normal rainfall in Asia, can disrupt palm oil production in Indonesia and Malaysia, the top growers, and cause dry weather in North America, hurting soybean crops. Palm and soybean oils are substitutes and account for more than 60 per cent of global edible oils supplies and demand. “It has been raining in Malaysia and that’s adding to some concern about future production outlook,” OSK’s Long said. December-delivery soybean oil jumped as much as 1 per cent to 40.94 cents a pound and the vegetable oil’s premium over palm oil narrowed to US$88.48 a ton from US$105.8 on July 30, according to Bloomberg data. November-delivery soybeans rallied as much as 1.4 per cent to US$10.19 a bushel, the highest since April 26.

CME Group Inc.’s October-delivery palm oil contract, pegged to the Malaysian benchmark price, jumped as much as 2.4 per cent to US$811 a ton, the highest since the contract started trading in May. On the Dalian Commodity Exchange, January-delivery palm oil surged 2.5 per cent to 6,910 yuan (US$1,020) a ton, while soybean oil added 2 per cent to 7,842 yuan a ton.

CPO futures likely to maintain uptrend...

Salam Semua...

Quoted from Business Times, 01.8.2010;

Crude palm oil (CPO) futures prices on Bursa Malaysia Derivatives is likely to continue its upward momentum next week amid continuous demand from China, India, Pakistan and Indonesia, a dealer said.

These countries have begun purchasing the edible oil to meet the requirements of consumers during the Ramadhan month. Another key factor that is expected to drive prices is the weather condition. "This will be the biggest concern for the market for some time. "The rainy season could affect harvesting, hence, forcing prices to spiral," said another dealer of the impending monsoon season. He forecast crude palm oil prices to fetch between RM2,600 and RM2,700 per tonne next week.

"But given the good demand in the market, the price may breach RM2,800 per tonne," said the dealer. Meanwhile, cargo surveyors, Intertek Testing Service and Societe Generale de Surveillance are expected to unveil Malaysian's palm oil export data on Saturday and Monday, respectively. For the week just-ended, August closed RM31 higher at RM2,589 per tonne, September added RM28 to RM2,538 per tonne, October rose RM19 to RM2,517 per tonne and November was RM17 higher at RM2,512 per tonne. Total turnover for the week narrowed to 78,134 lots from 86,443 lots last week while open position rose to 68,905 contracts from 68,218 contracts previously. On the physical market, spot month August South was quoted at RM2,600 per tonne. -- Bernama

Three (3) Key Elements in Savings...

Salam Semua...

The wisdom in financial planning is save what you have first and then spend;

1) Emergency Fund, this should equal at least Six (6) months of your current net income. This fund is set aside in the event you lose your source of income unexpectedly, so this should keep you going until you find another job.

2) Life-Risk fund, which basically funds to be used when a person loses the ability to earn an income, i.e. becomes ill or paralysed. This is normally accumulated via an INSURANCE POLICY. Here, one should ensure that the funds are equivalent at least five (5) years' annual income. So, for example, if you earn RM5,000.00 a month, which translates to RM60,000.00 a year, then you should buy a RM300,000.00 (RM60,000.00 x 5) policy (everyONE need minimum RM250,000.00 for Critical Illness nowdays).

3) Set aside some money for generally safer investments such as property, blue-chip stocks and crude palm oil (CPO) futures. This should garner you some decent returns but you have to be careful of your choices.
