(Acanthaster planci)
Coral reefs take millions of years to form. Unfortunately, this simple sea creatures died from direct effects of global warming and pollution without control.
This condition is exacerbated by the presence of natural enemies, the crown of thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci).
Starfish is easily found on coral reefs in tropical waters in the Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean and Red Sea. Starfish is capable of growing from the size of the palm to the plate size.
Marine life, it only needs a little food and can survive for long periods. Marine life is also taking a source of food composition and the resulting sea coral reefs off. This type of starfish, if not controlled may cause imbalance in the ecosystem, thereby providing long-term adverse effects to humans.

oil palm in malaysia
Malaysia is a famous palm oil producing country. There are many oil palm estates in Malaysia because of its suitable climate. Many years ago the seeds of the oil palm tree were brought to Malaysia from Africa.
The seeds of the oil palm are planted in plastic bags and put in a special place called the nursery. After a year, the seedlings are planted in the field or plantation. They start producing fruits when they are about three years old.
The oil palm tree is about 9 meters tall. It has a thick trunk and fronds like the coconut trees. The fronds that grow on the lower part of the trees are cut twice a year so that the workers can harvest the fruits easily.
Palm oil is produced from the oil palm fruits. The fruits grow in bunches. Each bunch has about 400 small fruits and weighs between 10 to 20 kilograms.
A long handled knife is used to cut down the fruits. For the taller trees, a longer pole is attached to the knife. The fruits are transported by lorries to the oil palm mill, where they are processed into oil. Palm oil is used to produce candles, cooking oil, margarine and soap.

Dear Ladies,
As we all know, sports activities are vital to the community. Since our school days were exposed to various sports activities. The Government is also willing to spend money just to encourage people regardless of race so active in sports.
Sports can actually create a vibrant and intelligent people. When we play sports, our body can move with the intensive. Such movement could strengthen joints and muscles of the body and can break the layer of fat in the body and can generate energy for mencedaskan mind. Therefore, we will be active and able to devote full attention to education. Our minds will be critical and creative thinking.
Dear friends,
Sports activities to create solidarity among the people. Usually the athletes of various races. Before a competition was held, the athletes and players will be grouped in a certain place in the training. They will undergo training together. With this, they will mingle and interact purely for the school, state or country.
Sports can also contain a variety of social problems. Adolescents is quite susceptible to a variety of unhealthy elements like loitering, gangsterisme, vandalism or drug addiction. This is because they have more leisure time but do not fill them with useful activities. If they are active in sports, they would not be lured into immoral activities.
Dear Ladies,
Before the end of this lecture, I want to stress once again that sports is very important in our daily lives. By engaging in sports activities, we can increase endurance towards a healthy lifestyle.
