Farewell to Interns Batch #8, 2008

On behalf of DANAU, I would like to express our appreciation to Mohd Razif, Rashidah, Ikram Hakimi and Norazizi for all the work thay have done for us, individually and as member of a larger team. They were interns no 22, 23, 24, and 25 respectively.

Mohd Razif, leaning against one of his work

Razif has a natural talent in graphic illustration and photography. He has helped us in producing some of our own corporate identity graphics and images. His ability to translate ideas and concepts into graphics and images had improved tremendously since he joined us in December 2008. That gave me the confidence to explore many new and different corporate identity concepts simultaneously including our website.

Rashidah, intensely waiting for her turn to present

Rashidah has helped us in improving some of our existing and new multimedia content work. She has shown a lot of determination and willingness to learn from the beginning. Rashidah is a quick learner. When she was asked to do a napkin sketch version of our office opening invitation card, she was able to come out with a good sketch in just a few days although she had not known napkin sketch before.

Ikram Hakimi talking about his work at DANAU

Ikram was very clear on what he wanted to do right from the begining, web development. Although we did pursue some system development on the web, most of his work for us were blog design and customization, including DANAU Blog (this blog) and Menguasai Internet. Other blogs will be launched at a later date.

Norazizi explaining database optimization

Norazizi has helped us in improving our Makan-Makan Malaysia (Edisi Melaka) database, testing and rectification, as well as data entry. Norazizi is not so sure what to pursue as career. We wish her all the best in determining what is the most suitable and meaningful for her to live with.

To Razif, Rashidah, Ikram and Norazizi, thank you for the time and commitment that you have given us. Your contribution is much appreciated and we wish you all the best in your future undertaking.

Dr. Ahmad Zaharim

The Red Maze Is Officially Opened

Nordin Group Opening Day

The Red Maze (Nordin Group Building) was officially openned last Friday (15 May 2009) by YAB Datuk Seri Mohd Ali bin Rustam, the Chief Minister of Melaka. We wish to thank Tan Sri Ahmad Nordin, the Chairman of Nordin Group, for inviting the Chief Minister of Melaka to our Experimental Gallery at our office see some of our social commitment initatives.

Many people have worked hard to prepare for the opening event and to make sure that DANAU Experimental Gallery is ready to accept visitors. To Hasanah and Shida for preparing the Nordin Group opening montage; Azim for preparing various graphics for the gallery and taking pictures; Azmin, Hajar and Azura for preparing Danau Ilmu; Ikram for preparing Danau Blogsphere and Danau Blog, Hakim and Zul for helping Ikram to prepare for Blog Menguasai Internet; Thony, Azzie, Amiera and Azza for updating Makan-Makan Malaysia (Edisi Melaka); Razif for preparing various corporate identity graphics and taking pictures; and to the rest of the interns - Celine Wong, Ng Kin Hwa and Alicia Ang for helping in many different ways, thank you to all of you for your hard work.

We would also like to thank other Nordin Group companies and firms for sharing their resources with us. And to our clients who were there at the opening we say thank you for taking your time to come.

Special thank you to Razif for willingness to showcase his best photography works at our Experimental Gallery. Do visit our gallery to see his first experimental photography showcase.

A New Beginning

April 2009 marks a new beginning for DANAU. We moved office from K-Economy Incubator to our new office at the Nordin Group building.

Our new office is special in many ways. First, it is located in a single building that is shared with four other main companies and firms, namely, Adillah A Nordin (Advocates and Solicitors), Emilda Architect, DAMA Design + Build and NeuroMaju. Secondly, the building has a very distinctive red-bar design on its facade (designed by Emilda Architect). For that, I call the building The Red Maze. And for that too, our new address becomes:

DANAU@TheRedMaze, 82 Jalan TU2, MSC Cybercenter @ MITC, 75450 Melaka

The Red Maze
