The Best "Quote" To Me and My Blog Readers !!!

"If You Have Nothing Good To Talk About Someone, It Is Better To Talk Nothing."

What would you do when you know that people keep talking back about you and start their "Hate" campaign on you?

The best is to stay away from them and keep doing what you love best.

To stay away does not mean that you are defeated but you can still focus on what you love most. Do not allow those guys distract you from your mission.

I receive several calls, emails and SMS everyday from many of my blog readers who urged me not to be offended by those "Hate" campaign but continue with my mission to write everything that I know about swiftlet farming.

"We can roughly judge a person from the way they write. I will just ignore the negative comments and concentrate on doing good & earning a living at the same time. If an opinion if given from the heart without any malice we need not have to bother too much.

Keep up the good work Harry !"

Yesterday one regular reader called me and advise me please ignore those Forum that gives very little benefits except demoralisation.

I told him that I am not a cock fighter and to join those forum will make me angry, disorientated and loose my main objective in getting towards my goal.

Remember, I created this blog with a primary objective of gathering as much information as possible for those newbies. To me there are still lots of new things to be discovered and I will try to get them. Once they are discovered I will exposed to all who are yearning for information.

I was hoping that there will be more blogger who will follow my footsteps. Main reason being there are so much to write and one or two person will not be edequate to do so.

However, if a person writes a blog, he must adhere to some disciplines or code of ethics.

One of the most important ethic is not to criticize your fellow blogger. You can voice your opinions and your opinions might not be the same. But never criticize with malice. Exposing his eating habits, what drinks he likes, which girl he likes, making wild assumptions about him is like puting his nude pictures on the web. You gain nothing by doing that but more people will be angry at you.

One more ethic is to help to improve the industry. Remember this industry started way back in 1880, more then 200 years but the information that we get on the net is so little. There is no place for all newbies to get the right answers. They need to be well supported. They need to improve their knowledge and reduce from making major mistakes.

Try not to write or show pictures that might raise the interest of people who can destroy the Industry. The moment these stories or pictures are taken by those people, the whole swiftlet industry will be doom.

Try not to touch on sensitive issues especially about religion, ethnic, phono or politics. They will normally cause lots of unnecessary attentions and in the end it will back fire your effort. If the issue causes lots of uncalled attention which might destroy your motive then quickly remove them.

Swiftlet farming is weired. There is no straight answers to any question. Some will says that the birds likes dark places but on the contrary there are many places where they nest in bright areas example at a hotel in Melaka called Puri Hotel. So you must not feel offended when someone gives any opinion which are not the same as yours. All you need to say is that this god gift creatures are unique and behaves differently.

The local authority are coming hard on the Industry and many people will be affected. Main cause of this new dilemma is us. There are too many birdhouse owners causing annoyance with their habit of blasting those bird call sounds. Many BHs in town areas are modified with little consideration of the total surroundings. We need to point those fingers at us but not to others.

I believed if every BH owners are considerate and do not wish to be harassed by those local council people they need to carry out the needful to reduce complains from the public. I remember talking to Mr James from www.swiftletfarmer.blogspot.com who believed that the best BH design is where the BH is in operation with little change externally and the sound used is so soft that even your neighbours do not know that there is a BH beside his shop house.

We need to reduce the bird call sound volume, keep our BH clean, make sure they blend with the surrounding, remove those smell, use better technologies in making the BH a better place for the birds to call their favorite home. The best person who we can learn from is from the master Sifu Mr John Chen. Just visit any of his BHs and evaluate his ways in making his BHs the best especially externally. They way he keep the road around his unit clean, the building walls properly painted, the low sound that he operates and he love to use top entry methods.

If you are keen to be a blogger please contact me so that I can try to assist you in your new mission.
