"Now you have a choice", Folkstudio.

Happy Holidays Malaysia!

To all the Malaysian Christians, hope you have a merry time!

And with the New Year around the corner, it's time to put every misgivings, misdeeds, regrets and sadness behind us -- instead let's start fresh with a new page.

MALAYSIA BOLEH.

With kind regards,
The FolkStudio team :)

Our goals and objectives

This is our target timeline, what we want to achieve by a certain time limit and date. Sorry about the small resolution, but basically we have a few short-term goals in the stretch of a long-term ambition -- in which the first short-term goal is entering the Google's Model Your Own Town competition.

Google competition - Entry confirmation form

Our application has been acknowledged by the Google team.

Thanks for entering the Google Model Your Town Competition!

On March 1, 2010 (the competition deadline), we'll copy the building models
in your Google 3D Warehouse collection into a separate directory for the
first round of judging. Please note that changes you make to your models
after the competition deadline will not be considered.

If your team is chosen as a finalist in the first round of judging, your
team leader will be notified by email on or around March 15, 2010. Any team
members who were not 18 years of age on or before December 1, 2009 must
complete and return a guardian consent form we will send you.

On April 1, 2010, the finalists will be posted to the public voting page on
the competition website.

Public voting will end on May 1, 2010.

On or around May 15, 2010, the winning team will be announced on the
competition website.

We're excited to see what you create. Good luck.

FolkStudio update 13-19 Dec

We got a reply from the Majlis Perbandaran Sepang:

Sukacita dimaklumkan bahawa pihak Majlis Perbandaran Sepang amat menyokong cadangan dan usaha pihak tuan untuk memasukkan Daerah Sepang ke dalam Peta Dunia menerusi pertandingan 'Google Skechup'. Cadangan tuan ini adalah selaras dengan objektif Majlis iaitu untuk 'menjadi sebuah pihak berkuasa tempatan bertaraf dunia'.


Pihak Majlis juga ada memberikan penekanan kepada para pelajar yang menjalani latihan praktikal di Majlis supaya belajar menggunakan 'Sketchup' bagi struktur bangunan di Bandar Cyberjaya yang dikenali sebagai nukleus ICT atau Bandaraya IT. Ini kerana di Cyberjaya, terdapat banyak syarikat multi-nasional yang beroperasi dan ini secara tidak langsung juga dapat memperkenalkan Malaysia dan Daerah Sepang amnya.


Tambahan lagi, bangunan Majlis Perbandaran Sepang berada di Cyberjaya.. Cadangan dan usaha pihak tuan ini juga boleh dilaksanakan melalui program 'Local Agenda 21' iaitu kombinasi daripada sektor kerajaan, swasta dan orang awam serta para pelajar bersama-sama turut serta dalam pertandingan ini khususnya kearah peningkatan kualiti hidup yang lebih kondusif. Kewujudan banyak institusi pendidikan di Daerah Sepang juga boleh dijadikan sebagai peluang kepada para pelajar untuk turut serta dengan menyediakan hadiah-hadiah yang sesuai sebagai sokongan dan galakan. Cadangan pihak tuan amatlah dihargai.

Everything is going well... hope for the best for FolkStudio peeps!

Architecture, People, FolkStudio and our Objectives

Architecture is one method or field that allows the creation of ideas chiefly potraying the historical, cultural values of its people.

It is definitely the time for architecture to serve its people and society using the professional skills learnt in architectural schools across Malaysia.

Promoting Malaysia in Google Earth is a big start for us!

FOLKstudio is hoping to take on this challenge heads on to virtualize Malaysia, by contributing to the society as below:

i) To help the Government to promote Malaysia as a Tourism spot.
ii) To help the town planners, architects both in Government and Private sectors in viewing sites across Malaysia (in seing the workability of By-Laws, zoning, etc)
iii) To help architecture students and lecturers in virtual site visits.
iv) To allow people from across the world to visualize Malaysia with just a click in Google Earth.
v) To help Malaysians tour Malaysia virtually.

We really hope that we could contribute to many parties, and support from the WHOLE COUNTRY is really important to us!

MALAYSIA BOLEH!
