About my site, me and some ground rules

Hazrul loves his humanities, visiting musuems and travelling around the world.
  1. This blog serves as an outlet for me to share my thoughts about finding nirvana in life’s journey and how I integrate Nirvana into my life and business and discuss the stuff that help me attain internal peace.
  2. I am currently working full-time at Stream Media Pte Ltd as a Team Leader (Server), Software Engineer. It’s cool if your position has a long name. It’s not so cool when the amount of work is as long as the name. I had originally helped my friend to set it up before I left after a month to pursue another business I had already been doing. I returned to it as I found the new opportunity beneficial to my development as an entrepreneur.
  3. I presently run 2 businesses, of which I can only dedicate a minimum amount of time due to my full-time job.
    1. Verbeter Group: Improving Internet Experiences by distributing Internet Security Products, enhancing Internet Presence with Web 2.0 based sites and apps running on WordPress or PHP/Ruby, and developing Online Properties of niche sites. I achieve these 3 goals by establishing business units that focus on different product brands and services and more information can be found at the Verbeter Group website. I have been running it since 2006. I may convert this to a Pte Ltd some day and just focus on doing WordPress related stuff as a hobby.
    2. ALM Group Pte Ltd: We provide Instant Islamic Information by developing a web and mobile app that allows a user to find nearest mosque, halal place, Islamic bank/atm, and haj travel agencies. I had recently set this up in late 2011. I foresee myself running this business in the long-term future. But now, needs must.
  4. I plan to revert back focus on my business because I need to live my dream. However, that will take some time as my primary responsibilities lie in my current job at the moment. I don’t see this happening any time soon.
  5. You will find my personal profile on Facebook and my professional resume can be received upon request.
  6. I like making friends, but I value my privacy and I don’t like spam. So if I don’t know you or have not met at least twice, and you add me on Facebook, please include a message introducing me who you are, where we met if any, and why you would like to add me, failing which I will just ignore such requests.
  7. If you offend me or other subscribers in any way, I’ll ban you from commenting and subscribing to my blog. I like Free Speech. What I don’t like are people who have no regards for decorum. That is so un-nirvanic. That said, as much as I believe in finding Nirvana, I also believe in Karma. So before you decide to flame me, what goes around, comes around my friend. :)
