Malaysia On The Mend!

Changes do not happen overnight. Everything takes time. The Amount of Shit we were left with was huge. Try cleaning the toilet bowl clogged with Shit. What must you do to solve it? Will it take time?

Step one taken, we got the plumber. He too needs to assess the problem and identify the cause of the blockage and what obstacles are in the way before a plan or solution can be taken to clear it. Next up the tools he needs for the job to clear the obstacle and clear the Shit. Along the way blockage may build up again and a new plan has to be put in place to ensure it stays cleared.

After all that is done, come the stage of cleaning up the act and the bowl. Scrub , disinfect ,replace components and another flush to clear up leftovers. I'm sure after a dump u guys flush right? And u may need to do it again to make sure nothing is left behind.

So allow them time to assess, understand, identify and rectify with a proper longstanding solution that would save us and our next generation to come.

So let's be slow to speak and quick to listen for the sake of our beloved country.

Seek to understand and asses for ourselves first before jumping the gun.

We are all SHAREHOLDERS OF MALAYSIAKU INCORPORATED and it doesn't take 24hrs or even 100days to completely overhaul the system. 61 years worth of issues cannot be fixed in that time...

Just 2 cents worth....there is hope.

A case of RM2.70.....

The RON97 is going through an uptrend in prices and doesn't seemed like it is going stay at RM2.70 for a long time.

This does spell trouble right and I see the RON95 following suite in the very near future.....

A case of a busted o-ring.....

This time the o-ring in the CO2 solenoid valve decided to end its tenure and I ended up losing all my CO2 gases within the night.....

As I recall rightly, I had about 50psi  of gases and by the time I see the sunrise of the next day, all I see is 0psi on the gauge on the solenoid. This really puzzles me and of course as a good planted tank master, I proceeded to refill the gas and upon connecting the solenoid to the canister, all the gas came oozing out.

Had a quick check and found this.

Thank god I have a replacement and it was promptly replaced.

I also put in some CO2 tablets as a backup.

Well, I had the current canister running full 8 months without refill and if this hadn't happen, I might go another 3 months maybe?

Never did it crossed my mind.....

My family and I visited the KL Bird Park and my oh my, it is really the biggest aviary in the world.....

It is really not bad and bordering on impressive.....go check it out!

A new windscreen and a clear blue sky ahead of me.....

I just changed the windscreen courtesy of my insurance coverage.....

And the view has never been clearer and sky has never been more blue.....

Unfortunately, the weather has never been hotter.....

Thanks god someone invented air conditioning and I just got to tell you this.....

The Skyline air conditioning is the best I ever experienced.....

RON97 a high performance fuel indeed.....

Looks like RON97 is a performance fuel judging by it's good price acceleration.....

At December 10 last year it was hiked 10sen to from an already steep RM2.20 to RM2.30.....

By early January, I supposed it was riding high and upped to RM2.40 promoting it from a mere Gunung Tahan to Mount Kinabalu.....

And now it is claiming the title of Mount Everest with a peaky price of RM2.50.....

I just can't wait for the business folks to raise their price by 10sen.....as they claim "saya punya van bawak ini barang pakai RON97 la....."

The Yin & Yang of weather.....

This is how the weather is recently with all it's sunny condition and it's wet rainy condition.....

This is the classic look where both are present......

The Christmas Tree and worms in the rice.....

My wife is setting this up and my kid can't wait to put on the star.....

Meanwhile my son found 'worms' in the rice at lunch which was actually some beans that my mum put in for added nutrition.....

Total crap.....

The picture says it all and it is courtesy of The Star.....

Sawadhika.....kap kap.....

Someone else is either going to Phi Phi Island or Krabbi.....

And I'm heading to Chon-bhuri.....

Yeah, where's that you may ask? Beats me and all I know it's an industrial area.....

Anyway, off to Siam.....

Plants and zombies.....

This is the latest past-time I'm hooked on for now.....besides my A31.....

September came and went and my childhood buddy got married.....

Well, I was out of action for a while with lots of wedding over the weekends in September and on the second day of the tenth month of the year twenty ten, my buddy got married.....

Would like to certainly share some pics I took with my Nokia 5800.....

Some were snapped by my kid.....

What is it gonna be.....

What will tomorrow make of me.....

YES.....it is a NO.....

What happens when someone tells you that he or she is able to fetch you somewhere but WILL NOT fetch you home?

Simple, you tell him or her you will meet him or her at the destination.....

Of course you will let him or her go ahead first.....

And of course you will have to find another way to get there.....

Also....of course you will be on your way there.....

Of course half way through.....you will go somewhere else.....

And again of course you will feel satisfied that he or she will.....

Of course will be waiting there wondering when you will arriving or for any matter if you will be arriving at all.....

Of course it is wrong to do that.....

Of course it is wrong for him or her to do that to you.....

And of course that serves him or her right!!!!!

Well, it so happened I had a heavy lunch and of course I'm talking nonsense here.....

Ever being ejected from the car like those Batman movies?.....

Well, this is a tribute to a friend of mine who was literally "ejected" from a car.....

Of course it was unlike the title where he was ejected but he was "adviced" to eject himself from a car.....

Not by any mechanism but the driver and the co-driver themselves.....

However they are kind enough to stop another car to ferry my friend to safety.....

Talk about being compassionate or it is being passionate?

Doing things correctly or effectively.....

I have been wondering about the way we usually get things done.....

Say you are queuing in a line buying food in a stall.....somewhere along the line is your friend.....

So, in order to get things done 'effectively', would you go to your friend and say this:

"Hi, can you also tapau this and that for me and here's the money.....please"

Or you would rather get things done 'correctly', and hence you just find the last slot in the line and start queuing.....

However as you do either of the above.....you'll begin to wonder on the effectiveness of your correct action or alternatively the correctness of your effective action.....resulting in.....

Queuing in McD Drive Thru where you'll definitely need to queue and your friend in front is never going to tapau for you.....

Birthdays, age and getting older by day.....month.....or.....year?

What does birthdays mean to you?

Are you gonna count how old you are in years or maybe months or days?

Whatever it is, you are definitely getting older regardless of how you count.....

Some choose to remember the month and day and almost always omits the year only keeping it deep inside their memory.

If I remember correctly, I have always counted my age by the year I was born instead of whether I have reached my birthday or not.....





However in recent years.....in fact when I passed the dreaded 30.....I start to refer to my birthday especially by referring to the month when disclosing my age.....

Of course I will revert back to the year I was born when people guess my age younger that what I appear to be.....

Is it pure vanity or silliness of not understanding that most are pleasing you or pulling your leg?

Whatever it is, no wonder SK2 are selling like hot cakes and it'll be a matter of time before male and female alike will pray to it as their fountain of youth.....

Why some, in fact most household need 2 Astro decoders.....

I used to look scornfully at those houses with 2 Astro receiver dishes.....

My 2 3/4 year old kid made me realized the necessity today. It goes something like this.....

Me : Son, let's see what's on channel 322.....

Son (shouting) : Nooooooooooooooo.....I want see Dibo.....Dibo nice.....

Me : Son, you've seen this in the morning already.....

Son (shouting again) : Nooooooooooooooo.....I want see Dibo.....Dibo nice.....

Son (shouting again) : Yesssssssss.....Dibo nice.....



2 positives came out of this.....

First is I can consider cancelling all other packages except cartoon package and change to Astro Beyond.....seeing all in HD makes a better experience right?

Secondly, at least I know my son understands what are opposites.....he knows how to use YES and NO effectively!!!!!

Why the tears when there should only be gladness?

A colleague was servicing the company for the last day today.....

Lots of colleagues attended the event and many shed their tears as if they may not see this colleague in their life again.....ever.....

Perhaps it is true for most of them but the thing is....why all the crying?

In fact everyone should be happy and offer congratulations.....after all it's a new start and lease of life after this.....

The fact that the complications and complexities of work is now all behind this particular colleague should only spell happiness and gladness.....

Perhaps they are all crying because they were thinking....."Oh shit! I'll be next in line to take over all the shits!"

A picture says a thousand words.....

A picture says a thousand words may be very true but what happens when there are lots of pictures?

If you can count, this simply tells you that you can publish a dictionary or thesaurus or phrase book or just make a very complete facebook account.....

However although a thousand words may have been said, nothing beats being there when the picture was taken.....

Well, just a thought when you see a real life occurrence reenacting a picture.....deja-vu huh? Now, where did I see the shirt before.....was it in a photo? :P
