Poll result: What is the main reason why Indian community in Malaysia not doing well?
It is an irony that the day I am closing the poll, I am reading about the downfall of the “Deva Gang” in the newspapers. It is an irony indeed
I wish to thank all who participated on the short poll especially those who added the link in their blog.… [Click to read the rest] “Poll result: What is the main reason why Indian community in Malaysia not doing well?”
Hamburglar – my son’s first impression
Look at the above picture and tell me whether it’s looks frightening or not…No, no…look closely again. Not frightening?
Now look from a 1++ year old point of view.
Last week, me and my wife decided to hop in to McDonalds for a short dinner treat. Firstly we had some McDonald’s coupons Secondly it has been awhile we had McNuggets (used to eat them for lunch and dinner when I was still working in a bank).
Is Parliament turning into a Zoo?
.
.
An interesting read at Lim Kit Siang’s blog titled “92% Parliament majority turns ugly…”. Well, it is not the first time I am hearing about it or have shaken my head on the hooligans that we have elected to the Parliament. This led me to think on the reasons why majority is showing their ugly side:-

Sleeping problems? – Hypnotise yourself to sleep
I did not know that there is a “The Better Sleep Foundation” and “National Sleep Foundation” until I “googled” it up in the net. Gosh!
When I was doing my law degree whilst working full time, sleep was a luxury. Studying until 2.00 am and then waking up for work at 6.00 am, meant I only slept for 4 hours everyday for 6 days a week.… [Click to read the rest] “Sleeping problems? – Hypnotise yourself to sleep”
“Electrocuted” at the elbow
It was 6.15 am and I was half asleep when my wife woke me up this morning
As I forced myself to take cold shower, my mind was going through the activities for today. I was more or less was very awake after the shower. A quick enthusiasm kicked in as I was drying myself (with a towel) in the bathroom.… [Click to read the rest] ““Electrocuted” at the elbow”
Reunions – when to go for one?
Last week, I was invited to an office reunion lunch.
My ex-big boss from my ex company was leaving the company and he thought it will be best to meet the “old” gang before he leaves. So, when I got the invitation, I immediately said yes. It will be good to see old office mates – not seen them for 2 – 3 years now.… [Click to read the rest] “Reunions – when to go for one?”
Weekend out for Barbeque
It has been a while (years I think) since me and my cousins did this…have an outdoor barbeque session. So, a group of us got together and decided to have one for old time sake. Each of us had responsibility for the day and not surprisingly the task of buying beverages fell on me.… [Click to read the rest] “Weekend out for Barbeque”

Disasters and Malaysia’s readiness
The question begging to be answered is whether we are going to be professional enough to act when a disaster (natural or man-made) strikes.
That thought came into my mind when I was watching Mega cities: Mexico City over National Geography Channel in Astro.
Considering Mexico City is the world’s biggest city but at ground zero – on one side: one of the world’s most earthquake-prone hotspots, on the other: one of the world’s most active volcanoes and beneath their feet – a shaky foundation of landfill.… [Click to read the rest] “Disasters and Malaysia’s readiness”

We have gone through this at some point in our working life. Imagine this…

You look up (to the air condition vent) and down (to your shoes, just to make sure you did not step on anything suspicious),
