HERE COMES 2010.




Haven't been writing for so long. Just a few blinks, comes to the end of 2009.


Is time to sit back and review for the whole year of 2009. Didn't do much in 2009. Just busy, busy, and busy with works. Be "blind" by work. Couldn't spend much time with mum, couldn't see the needed people need our helps, couldn't see our freinds need our ear. Is work really important? Work is important in certain aspect but it is not the whole.


What is important?


What is life?


What is purpose of life?


Lets have some brain storming.


Purpose of life!!!



to be continue...

Fever of Metal Puzzle


Last week had lunch with colleague; discover this metal puzzle near by. Bought two and resolved it that night. The next day purposely drove there to get another four, Yesterday bought another 7. Total 13 in quantity I have, and I had resolved 10 and 3 to go…

With this puzzle, I can forget about food about sleep, about “mandi”… erh… ha ha ha,,, I know I know what you want to say. Please don’t say it.

It’s the symptom of fever. I got fever, fever of metal puzzle.

4 days work

We had been working 5 and half days a week for many years. We were trying to persuade our boss to change to 5 days week. However we were never success.

Latest shocking news: Started this week, the company will implement 4 days week until end of March. For those who still have enough annual leave, those “not working” day will be deducted from annual leave. For those do not have enough annual leave, will be treated as unpaid leave.

We never expect to have a 4 days week in this circumstance.

Since the economic crisis started, we did not feel much on the impact because company’ sale was excellent for the last half financial year. However at the beginning of 2009, the situation is not so encouraging. Orders drop dramatically.

There is pro and con in this matter. How to think positively? Can we be optimistic? Shall we worry about this situation? What can we do in this economic situation? We are just “ants” and “locusts” in this global economic market.

Comes to the second thought, what can we do over the three rest days? Laze around? Or should we have some short trip locally? Should we keep the cash or should we spend to boost up the economic? Hm…..any one has good suggestion?

Open for suggestion.

50 Ringgit Notes



When we withdraw from the ATM machine, most of the time 50 ringgit note comes out.

I still remember, when I was a kid, my late father always get ready a bag of ceiling and a lots of small notes before he started his business for a day.

But seems the world had changed a lot. As a consumer we have to spare small note to buy things. “Business man” seems not keen to do business with you if you come with “big” notes like 50 ringgit notes…

I quite understand and I always keep some small notes but some time will run out of small notes too, Guess what had happened when I run out small notes?

News Paper
I wanted to buy news paper. I always go to that same stall to buy news paper, one of the mornings, I run out small notes and I ask the boss if they have the change, guess what? The “boss” ask me to buy news paper elsewhere??? I felt unbelievable, and as he wishes, now I buy me news paper elsewhere as he wish.

Sweet Corn
I love sweet corn, and I always buy at the same stall too every Thursday in “pasar malam”, yeah, come to this special day that co-incidentally I run out small notes again.
Hahaha…. The boss said: “you go else where to buy something first, get your note changed and then only you come and buy from me”. Hahaha….. I just laugh and left.

Lucky not everyone is like that. Another stall that I always visit in the morning for my breakfast, the lady boss said, no worry, you take it first, pay her later, doesn’t matter.
Hahaha… now I become a “loyal fans” for her.

New Year Resolution - be a better man


We are always leaning, learning and learning to be a better person.

I was facing a lot of problems in my work recently especially dealing with my colleague in China.

I was upset, disappointed and angry with him; I was keeping on thinking on the recent happenings, day and night, and get stressed up, when stressed up, my brain could not operate

Many things happened and came to one of the order confirmation, I was almost replying in this way:
It is obviously your typing mistake; it is very difficult for you to admit the error? I don’t understand what you trying to prove in your email; anyhow, I had learnt from the previous lesson that everything must make it clear from you guys and must have a black and white from you guys too..

About to click “send”, I hold back and went to wash room.

When I get back to my work station; thanks God, I noticed it wasn’t sounds good. The way I reply could “fire up” my colleague in China. I deleted all and replied in another way:

Thanks for your clarification, it is always best to clarify in order to have the correct understanding, May I have your official PO please?.”

Don’t you think this is better? Yeah, I know it is just small tiny matter you could say. But our life is just full of all this small tiny things, and sometime, some word from others (unintentionally) hurts us. And we think, can’t they express in a better way?

Whatever I wish how others ppl treat me, let’s start with myself.

My 2009 New Year resolution, be a better man. (man = "ren" = human being), lol….
And am not afraid of any problem, but pray to be wiser in handling any situation.

Happy New Year!!
