wRitten CommunicatiOn?
May 10, 2009
- This is more about how the communication will be done. I learn how to improve my communication skill likes how to be more clearly about the message that I want to send and not be out of control language.
- Communication will be easier by using ABC, that is ACCURACY, BRIEF, and CLEAR. So that, I don't think too many words which will look impressive on paper. One things that we must avoid is exterminate jargon.
- It is so dificult to understand and written should be natural as possible. The other things that should be avoid are redundant expression, negativity and also the passive voice. It should be active voice and don't forget to touch up our tone.

writting for business
May 06, 2009
This is different, business writting. It would be a lot easier if they've teach us this since primary one. Ever since I can remember, I've always thought that writting is about impressing the readers with my long and flowery words. The fact is writting should be as simple as ABC; accurate, brief and clear. Keep it short and simple. Exterminate jargons, etc. It's similar to how we speak, with additional predefined formats.
It should be easier than it is, but having forced in exams to write a certain amount of words for an essay, most Malaysian can't help but to fill their writtings with jargons and redundancies so that the required number of words can be achieved (this sentence serves as a perfect example).
