pRoudly MalaySiaN..Dr Irfan Kairi..(an example of successful online business entrepneur)

Dr Irfan Khairi - A True Internet Business Expert?

By Saidul A Shaari

Dr Irfan Khairi. His name needs no introduction in the world of online business here in Malaysia. He made sensations here when he became a Malaysian Ringgit millionaire at the age of 25 while he was still studying if I'm not mistaken. That was in 2002. His success doesn't come overnight of course, he was figuring out ways to make money online ever since the age of 18. So basically, he took well about 7 years to find the right formula!
He has written a number of books here and currently hot in the market are his 'Secrets of Internet Millionaires Revealed' book that was launched in UK in October 2006. That book of his has now more or less became the 'must-have' guide book for those who are seeking ways to make it big online here in Malaysia. He's also pretty good at organizing workshops, directly teaching and sharing his secrets with interested parties. His one-day workshop doesn't come cheap or course; it costs a whopping Malaysian Ringgit $790.00 as of time of writing.
We at Sahabatul Ventures has tremendous amount of respect for Dr Irfan Khairi. To make it clear to everyone, we are not affiliated nor associated with him or his business in any way. However, we do share a common interest that is to help others in establishing their very own online business venture. While his approach is stubbornly strict to one formula, we at Sahabatul Ventures are more adventurous and have a number of online marketing tricks fit for any business occasions.
Frankly speaking, we are not at all amused with Dr Irfan Khairi's success. There are many more unknown success stories that a lot of other Malaysians are not aware of. This is mainly because such successful entrepreneurs prefer to lay low and adopt low profiles to avoid the attention of the mass media. I know this may sound too good to be true but what I'm about to share with everyone today is for real:
1. A simple 'kampung' (ordinary person) Malaysian Malay man from Kedah who only finished high school became a self-made Malaysian Ringgit millionaire in 16 months through selling 'Tongkat Ali' or Eurycoma Longifolia on eBay and Yahoo! GeoCities! This is in 1995!
2. In 1998, an ordinary Malaysian Chinese man from Penang who also only finished high school and could hardly write and speak English became a Malaysian Ringgit millionaire in 23 months simply through his hobby! This guy loves to shoot videos and one day he sent a few short video clips of Malaysian natural sceneries to websites such as Discovery & National Geographic via email and FTP (File Transfer Protocol). His work was so good and that caught the eyes of Discovery & National Geographic editors! They paid him top dollars for his work and you may have seen his short videos on such channels without ever realizing that it was created by a typical ordinary Malaysian!
Now, that is what we at Sahabatul Ventures call truly amazing and unbelievable success stories! Now, let's go back to Dr Irfan Khairi.
One thing that we realized is that Dr Irfan Khairi may indirectly provide the wrong impression and message to the Malaysian communities especially. He claims to be a true online business expert as if every other expert on the field is either incompetent or incomplete. The way he promotes his skills, products and skills might also gave the impressions that it is easy to make money or become a millionaire online. To date, we have not seen anybody making much noise about it but it is high time that somebody did.
For the benefit of everyone especially all Malaysians interested in making money online, we would like to clear the air once and for all. With all due respect Dr Irfan Khairi, you are probably the only person in the world today who dares to claim oneself as a true expert in online business or any other type of money making opportunities. Even the world's current highly regarded and well known internet experts such Joel Comm and Michael Cheney did not proclaim themselves as true experts in their fields!
In actual truth, making money online successfully doesn't mean that one have to strictly follow a standard formula. A standard formula would eventually become obsolete and would no longer work for anybody when more and more people start to use them. There is no one single formula, as matter of fact there are hundreds, thousands and possibly millions of ways to make money online. There is no true expert on this field; everyone has their very own way that works. Nobody is better than the rest actually.
To make millions online, you need to be cunning and have a lot of patience. That's how things are in online businesses. If you do not have patience, persistence, intelligence and perseverance, you would never make millions online! It requires a lot of hard work dedicated full time. So, don't get wild eyed in hearing any online success stories and be gullible enough to think that you can strike it rich and become a millionaire by going online tomorrow. If you feel that that your current comfort zone of working 9 to 5 in a comfortable office is sufficient enough for you, stick to it. Chasing online rainbows are not for lazy bones and day dreamers.
We are not discouraging you from going for online businesses. As matter of fact, we would love to see more and more people achieved their financial freedom through online businesses. Our worry is that there are a growing number of people who failed miserably in their attempts to be successful online and that would indirectly give online business opportunities a very bad reputation. We put this blame to those who indirectly gave false hopes to the public, making them believe that everyone can make it rich online. Such irresponsible acts only made things worst for everybody.
Let's go back to Dr Irfan Khairi now. No matter how this article may sound, we are not in any way whatsoever taking cheap pot shots at Dr Irfan Khairi. He is a highly respectable professional intellect here in Malaysia and no 10 cents worth of comments made by people like us over at Sahabatul Ventures can deny that. We highly recommend Dr Irfan Khairi's products and services to those who would like to learn what online businesses are all about. Read his book at least and then ask yourself whether this is right for you. You really have to look deep inside yourself before answering that question. If you are patient enough, cunning enough, persistent enough and willing to weather every single online storm ahead, join the online bandwagon and put every single effort to it passionately! There is no turning back, let us warn you!

VERBAL SELF DEFENSE - A CRITICAL FACTOR IN SELF DEFENSE FOR WOMEN

By Michelle Annese

Verbal self defense, the use of your voice in a threatening situation, is an extremely important tool in protecting yourself. How? Uncommon to popular belief, criminals do not pounce on an individual when the mood strikes them. They attack when they see an opportunity available to them. If it’s easy, they will take it. They will prey on those who are weak, unaware, and an uncomplicated target. Criminals will act on premeditation, or stalk their victims ahead of time before attacking. If you show that you are familiar with your surroundings, walk with confidence, and give off the impression of strength, a criminal will not want to work to fight you.
Keep you eyes on everyone. Just because they might not ‘look’ like an attacker, doesn’t mean that some guy in a business suit can’t be one. If someone is approaching you, look them in the eye, hold out your hands in front of you and yell “Stay Back!” or “Stop!” Most sexual assailants interviewed say that they leave a woman alone if she showed that she wasn’t someone to be messed with or wasn’t afraid to fight back.
It’s called putting up a verbal boundary or verbal self defense. Many who have used this as part of their self defense training say they were amazed when they stepped toward a threatening stranger and yelled “Back Off!” in a strong, assertive, projecting voice. And the would-be assailant did just that.
Using pepper sprays can work in the same manner. Just by aiming at a potential attacker and yelling, “I have pepper spray!” can be a deterrent. That’s if it is in your hand at the time.
Pepper sprays are only effective if properly used. Telling your would-be assailant that you have pepper spray… and it’s at the bottom of your purse is not effectively using it, or any weapon or self-defense product, for that matter. Whether its mace, a stun gun, or even your keys, have it readily available, in your hand. More self defense products can be found online at on this great website www.safetyquestproducts.com
Knowing how to use these devices also plays a huge role in protection. You must know how the device works and be familiar with it. How? Practice. Practice. Practice.
When using mace, go outside and shoot a tree. See how the pepper spray really works. See the distance it takes to reach a target. If you’re going to use your keys, pre-plan ahead of time just exactly where on an attacker you would jab them. The eyes and throat are terrific targets. Tell yourself, “I will use this if I feel my life is in danger – No Question.” and without hesitation.
There are places that actually have computer simulated mace practice rooms. They are extremely life-like. These are the same simulation rooms that police and security officials use for their own training. Check with you local law enforcement to see if they are available in your area.
This type of training helps to program the mind during adrenal-stress. Or another form is called Body Alarm Reaction (B.A.R). You must train the mind with a stressful situation or adrenaline response to know just how you will react during an actual confrontation or attack. How you react in a B.A.R. moment will let you know if you’ll hesitate in a life or death situation.
Knowing how verbal self defense works can be a terrific safety tool for woman in preventing them from falling prey to an approach of a stranger. Verbal self defense is also another way to build your confidence in yourself. It allows women to see the power of their voice, the protection they can have from their voice, and to not feel threatened by anyone.
