Betta cf. pi

A fighting fish, Betta pi was originally described from the materials collected from Sungai Kolok (= Golok), on the Thailand side (see Tan and Ng, 2005: 85). It It was predicted to occur in Peninsular Malaysia, inhabiting swamps along the Sungai Kolok, on Kelantan, Malaysia sides. The actual location and the specimen of this species from Peninsular Malaysia is not immediately available. A fish currently recognised as Betta cf. pi was collected during the survey at swamp habitat of Terengganu, resembled closely to the description of Betta pi.

Footnote: chapter 3

Oh! Yes.. Materials for chapter 3 are now ready for 'goreng' (read: write). That is really something. A couple of months ago, the data of modified and natural pools fishes seems to me just as 'plain' as a blank piece of paper. I really don't know what else can I do with the data - what information should I add? Then, what analysis can I do? With a little 'push' form my boss, now I manage to generate tons of information.. And, I can test them with a few different ways. Interesting. I hope to put everything up nicely and write it, for my chapter 3! Oh! Yesss...

Short reports

At last, the preliminary report to State Forestry Department is ready. Lega.. It will be email to them soon. Altogether, 7 reports were prepared with an annotated checklist of fish collected at each site during the MEGA SAMPLING 0808.

The next activity will be completing the report on modified and natural fish assemblages by end of February and at the same time, READ.. Haha..

Hmmm.. What else...???
How nice, eh??

Mood sampling vs mood reading and analysing data..

Pening jugak kepala dengan semua journal yang kena baca dan buku2 pasal macam2 subjek.. Tengah syok membaca, teringat pulak analisis data yang bermacam bagai tuu.. Aduih laa.. Klik sana, klik sini.. Adjust sana, adjust sini.. Tengah syok buat, teringat plak pasal plan nak balik M'sia sampling.. Aarrgggghhhhhhhhhhh.... Tak boleh tahan loooohhhhhhhhhhhhh.... Mana satu nak buat nii....

Bos minta update.. Apa nak bagi ek? Nak tulis amende tah.. Idea tarak!! Kena baca.. Baca.. Baca.. Tapi, apa nak tulis.. Data tak godek lagi.. Kena jugak godek sana sini.. Ada ler yang dah digodek-godek (yang kat atas tuu..) beberapa hari lepas.. Juga, beberapa minggu lepas.. Tapi, rasa macam tak cukup ramuan.. Kalau terpaksa, kena ler goreng mana2 yang ada tuu.. Hehehe... Mau tak mau.. Boleh tak boleh.. Kena bagi boleh..

Oh! Satu lagi.. Nak kena buat poster untuk 10th Student Conference on Conservation Science di University of Cambridge March nanti.. This will be the first conference I'll attend as a PhD student. Can't wait.. Really..
