Otherwise you will run into scaling problems, which I will explain in a separate section. Maybe you want do design a Din A4 handout in the Card Creator? Still do design them as Poker Cards. So far I’ve just talked about the format ratio, but not about the paper size itself. It is fairly adaptive, so even if you will in practice finally use cards in for example the German or Bridge format, it is still a good idea to design them in Poker format and then just project them on the other formats. Long story short, in a world where there’s always a bit of give and take, the Poker format performs as optimal as it can get. So, let’s pick 16:10 for those… which leaves you with a bit of a rest in 3:20 (0.15) format, which you can just use as the title. You can then further assume that you want to have two areas, picture and text, which should be nice to look at. So, let’s pick a good approximation, which is 7:5 (1.4), which is the Poker Card format. The problem is that the square root of two is not a rational number, which means you always gotta round, if you want to use it. That is what the Din paper norm is based on. However, if the format is 1 to the square root of 2 (1.41), the other format is the same. So every paper has these two formats it’s switching between. Lets say you have a square paper 1:1, if you fold it in half, you’ll have 1:0.5 and if you fold it yet again, in half, it’s 0.5:0.5, which is the same as 1:1. You see, whenever you fold a piece of paper in half, it’s format changes. There is another important number to consider. Some will attribute this to the magic of the golden ratio and whether or not that’s the causation, we can say that some value around roughly the golden ratio (1.61) feels good. As this seems to be very fitting for the human eyes. But it is also mathematically speaking a good format to use, 7:5 (1.4).Īs you may be aware, screens nowadays come in most popularly in 16:9 (1.77) format. For one, it is the card size, you will usually find a lot of support for in terms of things and services you can buy like sleeves, blank cards, and so on. The suggested size for cards is the American Poker Playing Card format, which is 3.5″ x 2.5″.

Satellite-based internet is now seen as a viable option to provide connectivity to remote areas across Asia. For these areas, Moosom said solar-based power will need to be deployed to run the equipment needed for the WiFI service. Some areas are quite remote and may not have electricity. One of the challenges that need to be addressed though is whether the islands being eyed for the service have power. Moosom has also broached the idea of tapping MEASAT to provide internet in remote areas in other BIMP-EAGA countries. He said Malaysia will launch another satellite in orbit later in the year, which can mean faster internet speed for subscribers. “It's like having a WiFi at your place or your home,” said Moosom of the service. He believes that providing satellite internet for BIMP-EAGA’s remote areas makes sense because there is no need to lay out cables and other infrastructure, which would take time and investment. BEBC is the body that represents the private sector in BIMP-EAGA. “Better connectivity among the traders will mean an increase in trade,” he said. Benefits to tradersĬarl Moosom, chairman of the BIMP-EAGA Business Council (BEBC) Sabah, has welcomed MEASAT’s move to roll out the satellite broadband service in remote areas in Malaysia, citing benefits to traders. Internet connectivity has become urgent in the wake of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic due to lockdowns which had forced students to resort to online learning and businesses to require employees to work from home. In December, MEASAT installed its 1,000th satellite broadband service in Data Kakus in Sarawak. In February, MEASAT, along with Kementerian Sains, Teknologi dan Inovasi Sabah, Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission, deployed CONNECTme Now in Kampung Walu-hu, Ranau, Sabah, following reports students had braved wildlife attacks just to find internet signal in a nearby forest. As of December, the service has been installed in 1,000 sites in rural Malaysia. The company says it can provide service within days and speeds of up to 30 Mbps. According to its website, CONNECTme NOW targets areas without 3G or 4G mobile or fiber coverage. MEASAT’s venture into rural areas through its CONNECTme NOW service is an example of how Malaysia is improving access. Malaysia made it to the roster because it was able to boost accessibility, with a $5.4-billion plan to connect more of its citizens to the internet. In Southeast Asia, BIMP-EAGA countries, Malaysia and Brunei Darussalam, ranked second and third place respectively in the Digital Inclusion Index 2020 of global consultancy Roland Berger. MEASAT is now serving villages and communities in Sabah and Sarawak, both part of BIMP-EAGA.īIMP-EAGA considers digital connectivity among its development pillars because of its potential to spur trade and investment and empower individuals and societies to contribute better to the digital economy. Malaysian satellite operator MEASAT Global Berhad is now providing satellite broadband in remote areas in Malaysia as part of plans to serve communities which cannot be reached via terrestrial communication infrastructure.
