Lenggong

Took a trip to Lenggong last week. It's one of the up-North districts of Perak. Went to visit a friend who owns an organic farm there. He's the first friend I have from Czech Republic.
The journey there took almost 4 hours. Finally reached Lenggong and he brought us up to his farm. The road there was "really fucked"..well, that's how everyone describes it lolz.
I drove up the hill or should i say mountain and my bro drove down.. It's about 1500 feet above sea level.. He served us some Plumb Liquor.. really good stuff.. homemade and guess what? it's i think at least 40% alcohol.. Neat!!
Here are some pics and a video goin down the mountain.

PS: I swear the actual driving was 10 times more scary than seen on the video.

For Love

Was reading the papers and came across the Biz section. Saw some of the changes in Bursa. The Winners ARE : 1st Tasek 2nd Sarawak 3rd Msniaga 4th HLBank 5thBursa
And the top Losers ARE : 1st Jerasia 2nd MISC-01 3rd Perstima 4th BoxPak 5th Padini
Basing on the price, Tasek was up by RM0.50 to RM3.80 and Padini closed at RM 2.42 with a drop of RM0.08.

I was thinking that Ziwei Berhad should have ranked the lowest today if it existed.. with a lost of RM276….

A Few Simple Ways To See If You’re Smart

1) Ask a special someone to buy 2 tickets for a concert.
2) Pay extra in advance for the purchase.
3) Call her regarding tickets.
4) Find out that she can’t go.
5) Get a bunch of sorries.
6) But tickets were bought.
7) Have to collect tickets from her anyway.
8) Have to find someone to give tickets to.

In NO Bloody mood whatsoever to attend the concert with anyone d.

Tickets anyone?

The Things We Do

I've been here and there the past few days.. I had always knew where Taylors and Segi was but not UCSI. Well, not until now. SO to find both Taylors and Segi is no issue at all. Went to UCSI with a friend yesterday early afternoon.. Looks like I wont be doing Business Admin there. Like the atmosphere though!



Bhai, if you're reading this, Listen!! GO ask luke to find BHA121 for you.. buy it as an investment.. But beware of accidents from the cars behind you. wth?
And also look at the picture you took (the bottom one)... it was supposed to be Ali G... :S

New-NEP

The Global economic crisis has hit the world harder this year. You may have heard of this joke from the 1997/98 economic crisis.


God decided that the time has come and this world should come to an end. So God called upon the 3 world leaders; President Bill Clinton of USA, Zhang Zhi Ming Communist Party President and Premier of China, and most of all.. Prime Minister Dato' Seri Dr. Mahathir.
God told the world leaders that the world would end in 3days.. and commanded them to convey that message to their respective people.

Bill Clinton said to the US people " I have good news and bad news. The good news is that God spoke to me, the bad news is that the world will end in 3 days."

Zhang Zhi Ming said : " I have bad news and worse news. The bad news is, there is such a thing as God. The worse news is that the world will end in 3 days"

Dr. M told the Malaysians : " I have good news and even better news. The good news is that God spoke to me. The better news is that our economic crisis will end in 3 days!! "


********* END OF JOKE *********



Here is something I thought of earlier today. As the heat of the economic meltdown kicks in in 2009, the Malaysian Government has introduced various plans and schemes to tackle it.

However, some say that it isn't very effective in boosting the economy. As some of us know that the population of Malaysia is 27.7 million. What if we hooked up with some of the 3rd-world countries or should we say the poorer ones... and introduce a scheme whereby say.. One Million Malaysians (the ones which are hit the hardest by the crisis) migrate there and start a new life and perhaps start a little enterprise..

Assuming each of the One Million brings along RM 5000.. there would be 5 Billion Ringgit... it means 10 Trillion Ruppiah or 9.5 Billion Yuan or 37 Billion Rupees. A real boost for their economies.


Then we one way or another, get one million Matsalleh fellas from The US of A to migrate here. Those guys who just can't make ends meet living on the dough why not? say each person brings USD 5000.. That's about 17 Billion Ringgit pumped into our economy.


PS: One million more in a third world country won't make much of a difference and vise versa for the first world countries.


Does that not help the crisis globally?


Hmmmpm.. watcha say about the NEW-NEP ??

Its 1 something in the morning and the time on my comp reads 4:01AM.. I think its because I have the habit of removing the battery from the laptop while using direct current..It prolongs the battery life supposedly..

The past 24 hours I did a few things... hmm.... let me see, went for yumcha session till 4am? woke up and attended Catholic High School's Interact IU in the morning... CHS is my brother's old school and so I drove in like a hero oni.. cey...hehehe.
I remember once I went to CHS many years ago maybe when I was say... 13 or 14? I went to their Prefect room and conteng-ed some crap on the door.... ok so back to the point, IU.. the songs were good but the play could have been a little better. I remember those days I had to dress up in full Leo uniform and stuff. I wore my old LEO name tag there today.



Went for early dinner and attended the Puchong Community Orchestra and Choir concert in Shah Alam to show support for some family friends. They were fab!!
btw, YB Teresa Kok was there too :)

PS: Please forgive me..I'm a lousy photographer. lolz

The Great Escape 1963

Watched the movie I had been wanting to watch for the last few day.. The Great Escape.
I've watched it a long time ago. Oh no no.. not when it was first released. lol It's a good movie and there's much that can be learned from it.. to synchronize and to harmonize while being tactful.
Staring Steve McQueen and James Garner(I think he resembles Pierce Brosnan).
Owh and I took these pictures and a video while watching...it's 3 and a half hours long almost.


Steve McQueen appearing in a Philips ad?



James Garner





PS: Jennifer Garner is NOT James' daughter.

Lyrics for The Night Chicago Died

About a battle between the mobs and the law. But in actuality, the incident never took place.

The Night Chicago Died

In the heat of a summer night
In the land of the dollar bill
When the town of Chicago died
BoldAnd they talk about it still

When a man named Al Capone
Tried to make that town his own
And he called his gang to war
With the forces of the law

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed

And the sound of the battle rang
Through the streets of the old east side
'Til the last of the hoodlum gang
Had surrendered up or died

There was shouting in the street
And the sound of running feet
And I asked someone who said
Bout a hundred cops are dead

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be!

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed

And ther was no sound at all
But the clock upon the wall
Then the door burst open wide
And my daddy stepped inside
And he kissed my mama's face
And he brushed her tears away

The night Chicago died
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed

The night Chicago died
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be

The night Chicago died
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed

A Calm Before A Storm

No ropes after all...
Results weren't as bad as I had expected it to be... It still ain't good though.

I just read this:

"Malaysia's capital Kuala Lumpur will see a 65-storey Four Seasons building rise up alongside its iconic 88-storey Petronas Twin Towers, a report said Friday.
The tower, which will include a hotel, apartments and a shopping mall, will be completed by 2012 despite the global economic crisis, developer Syed Yusof Syed Nasir told the New Straits Times.
The daily said the project, known as Four Seasons Place, was being built by a firm controlled by Syed Nasir along with Malaysian tycoon Ong Beng Seng and the Sultan of Selangor. "

Ong Beng Seng (OBS) is ranked no. 12 amongst Malaysia's richest. He's also associated with Hard Rock..... hmmm.. not bad eh? I wonder what'd I do if Im worth USD 580 Million...

They say that there's a calm before a storm. Probably these guys figured out that theres a calm after the storm as well. smart eh?
But going for RM2500 per square foot will be a challenge.

Sun is cold and rain is hard

A return trip to Malacca yesterday. Drove half the way there and half the way back... I wonder if it reflects my personality.... lol
Neways, spent most of time walking from shop to shop and stall to stall... the food there was nothing to scream about.. The Melaka Sultanate Palace lies at the foot of St. Paul's Hill. I think the tourists would stand a greater chance of getting lost in CHS...
It was as sunny as any other day and started to rain in the evening.. Luckily we brought along the treasury to bail us out of the restaurants. hahhaa


Oldtown White Coffee : NO PORK at all!!



The Don of Malacca. ceyy....





Aik Cheong!! My favorite packet coffee.

Gans & Noses

Recently, I got myself indulged in certain odd delicacies..
my school friend brought me to a night market about a week ago.. there, we bought some fried Bishop's Noses... lol Cheap!! real cheap..
It was tasty but perhaps a little fattening. went back for more the other day..

And I'm sorry I hadn't been updating my blog often enough.. well, not that I've been very busy or anything.. But yeah. Hahahha i'll be a son of a "Gan" !!

Today I searched all over the house for my result slip for MUET which I took in 2007. I found it in an ordinary pile of miscellaneous papers... it is perhaps the "Keep first la.." instinct which I have in me that you know... enable me to find old stuff from all over the house which i kept ages ago.. it usually takes a day of 2 to locate anything in my house..
efficient eh? hahaha


Picture of the day..
