'A Long December'

Hey guys,

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

Well talk about December, it is fast moving! Imagine starting this Friday and the next 2 Fridays, we are off thanks to the public holidays in Malaysia. Three long weekends to enjoy....

Bukit Antarabangsa Tragedy:
Our hearts goes out to the victims who lost their love ones. It was a terrible tragedy that shook us up. It is a good thing that the Cabinet have decided to discose the report to the public to ensure transparency in the whole matter. The conclusion was that the landslide at Bukit Antarabangsa was result of 'damaged drainage system and leaking pipes'.
Hope this serves as a invaluable lesson to all of us. Development is good, but let us be responsible for it. Proper study must be made before any major projects especially on the slope or hillside or mountainside needs to be implemented. Not an anti-development person, but again let us use all resources before anything can be start or implement. We can't afford as a country to go through this ordeal and never learned from our mistakes. Now with the rainy season, landslide is on the radar.

Tiger Woods:
The man of Golf or the 'Jack Nickaus' of our time got himself in trouble wiz his wife. Well put it this Tiger, *#%t happens, but again we are human beings so we live and we learn from our past mistakes. Just don't do it for the second time, otherwise something is definitely not right.

Washington Redskins/VT Hokies:
Darn it, they lost last weekend and yesterday.....darn, oh well it is a losing record for the Skins this year. Not much to say for now.
Yup, my college team, the Hokies whack the Virginia Cavaliers. Hey they are in the Top 15 and surely on the way to one of the Bowl games.

Malaysian Football Team at Sea Games in Laos:
Here we go again, after a huge win against Timor Leste, we lost to Vietnam 1 - 3. Darn! That sucks, always wonder what is not right with our Boys compare to the veterans of the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Football back then was something and u can even memorise the name of the players. For this team, it was an under 23 team, well it is a good exposure, but again a very important game that they can't afford to lose. Next, they'll meet Cambodia and later Thailand, tough games for the boys.

YES, YES, YES:
YES, the year end sale campaign is on. All about cheap and interesting sales in the country. This is to get both domestic and international shoppers to spend and shop like mad. Definitely gives good revenue to the business folks. Again, as consumers be SMART when you shop, the prices may look simply irresistible, but ask a lot of questions to the shoppers in terms of quality, customer services, and etc. Remember, we are the CONSUMERs, it is a our basic right to shop SMART and lose a thing.
