HDR | Pejabat Pos Kelana Jaya

Sejarah Pos Malaysia bermula seawal tahun 1800-an dengan penubuhan perkhidmatan pos yang pertama di Negeri-negeri Selat (Pulau Pinang, Melaka dan Singapura) dan menjelang awal kurun ke-20, perkhidmatan pos meliputi seluruh Malaya.

Surat-surat kemudian disampaikan melalui penghantar surat atau utusan khas. Berbanding setem pos berbayar, bayaran perkhidmatan dikutip apabila surat-surat dihantar ke pejabat pos. Resit akan diberikan bagi surat-surat yang dipos.

Bagaimanapun sistem ini berubah apabila setem-setem India mempunyai cetakan mahkota dan setem-setem Selat cetakan dolar dan sen diperkenalkan pada 1867. Setem-setem pos berbayar pertama telah diperkenalkan pada 1901.

Bermula sebagai satu saluran penghantaran surat, dokumen surat khabar dan perniagaan, perkhidmatan pos kemudiannya berkembang menjadi pembekal perkhidmatan yang berganda. Ia mula menceburi ke dalam perkhidmatan penghantaran bungkusan, pendaftaran, insurans, urusniaga wang (Wang Pos dan Kiriman Pos) serta pelaburan dana (Simpanan Bank Pejabat Pos).

Perkhidmatan pos yang ketika itu dikenali sebagai Jabatan Perkhidmatan Pos, juga mula mengambil alih pelbagai perkhidmatan bagi pihak agensi-agensi kerajaan. Ia dimulakan dengan mengutip bayaran bil elektrik, jualan lesen anjing, bayaran pencen, jualan lesen televisyen dan sebagainya.

Setelah mencapai kemerdekaan pada 1957, Malaysia memulakan penyertaan secara aktif di dalam pertubuhan antarabangsa agar seiring dengan pembangunan sosial dan ekonomi. Antara lain, ia menjadi ahli Kesatuan Pos Sejagat (UPU) pada 17 Januari 1958, satu penyertaan di mana Malaysia menjadi ahli yang dinamik sehingga ke hari ini.

Setelah negara melangkah ke abad 21, perkhidmatan pos di Malaysia yang lebih dikenali sebagai Pos Malaysia Berhad terus berusaha untuk memenuhi permintaan dan keperluan pasaran dan tingkahlaku pelanggan yang sering berubah.

Awal tahun 1992, Pos Malaysia Berhad telah mencipta sejarah dengan membuat perubahan besar sejajar dengan kebebasan perniagaan. Dengan kebebasan, muncul pula satu cabaran yang lebih hebat. Berdepan dengan persaingan yang kompetitif, Pos Malaysia Berhad memulakan perjalanannya dengan mengukuhkan operasinya melalui pengasingan perniagaan yang terdiri daripada empat unit utama Perniagaan Strategik yang dinamakan PosMel, PosLaju, PosNiaga dan PosLogistik.

DID I MARRY THE RIGHT PERSON?

During one of our seminars, a woman asked a common question. She said,
"How do I know if I married the right person?"
I noticed that there was a large man sitting next to her so I said, "It
depends. Is that your husband?" In all seriousness, she answered "How do
you know?"

Let me answer this question because the chances are good that it's
weighing on your mind.

Here's the answer.
EVERY relationship has a cycle. In the beginning, you fell in love with
your spouse. You anticipated their call, wanted their touch, and liked
their idiosyncrasies.

Falling in love with your spouse wasn't hard. In fact, it was a
completely natural and spontaneous experience. You didn't have to DO
anything. That's why it's called "falling" in love... Because it's
happening TO YOU.

People in love sometimes say, "I was swept of my feet." Think about the
imagery of that __expression. It implies that you were just standing
there; doing nothing, and then something came along and happened TO YOU.

Falling in love is easy. It's a passive and spontaneous experience. But
after a few years of marriage, the euphoria of love fades. It's the
natural cycle of EVERY relationship. Slowly but surely, phone calls
become a bother (if they come at all), touch is not always welcome (when
it happens), and your spouse's idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute,
drive you nuts.

The symptoms of this stage vary with every relationship, but if you
think about your marriage, you will notice a dramatic difference between
the initial stage when you were in love and a much duller or even angry
subsequent stage.

At this point, you and/or your spouse might start asking, "Did I marry
the right person?" And as you and your spouse reflect on the euphoria of
the love you once had, you may begin to desire that experience with
someone else. This is when marriages breakdown. People blame their
spouse for their unhappiness and look outside their marriage for
fulfillment.

Extramarital fulfillment comes in all shapes and sizes. Infidelity is
the most obvious. But sometimes people turn to work,a hobby, a
friendship, excessive TV, or abusive substances.

But the answer to this dilemma does NOT lie outside your marriage. It
lies within it. I'm not saying that you couldn't fall in love with
someone else.

You could.

And TEMPORARILY you'd feel better. But you'd be in the same situation a
few years later. Because (listen carefully to this):

THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT'S
LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND.

SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. It'll NEVER
just happen to you. You can't "find" LASTING love. You have to "make" it
day in and day out. That's why we have the __expression "the labor of
love." Because it takes time, effort, and energy. And most importantly,
it takes WISDOM. You have to know WHAT TO DO to make your marriage work.

Make no mistake about it. Love is NOT a mystery. There are specific
things you can do (with or without your spouse) to succeed with your
marriage.

Just as there are physical laws of the universe (such as gravity), there
are also laws for relationships. Just as the right diet and exercise
program makes you physically stronger, certain habits in your
relationship WILL make your marriage stronger. It's a direct cause and
effect. If you know and apply the laws, the results are predictable. ..
you can "make"

love.

Love in marriage is indeed a "decision"... Not just a feeling.

Remember this always:

"God determines who walks into your life. It is up to you to decide who
you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go."

Renung-renungkan dan selamat beramal.... :)
