Time to Fine Litter-Bugs?
Monday, December 29th, 2008
Litter-Bugs are like culture for Malaysians. How many times have you seen a piece of tissue flying out of the car in front of you. Or a can being thrown to the side of the road after being consumed? There was a article in the papers of how DBKL was hitting out at party goers who messed up the streets after a massive Christmas Eve celebration.
DBKL very rightly pointed out that it was every-one’s right to party and have a good time moreover its the holiday season and those who fancy partying will let their hair down and release some steam. But what ever reason, it needs to be done with some sence of responsibility. (more…)
Lights Up!
Sunday, December 28th, 2008
When you vote during the elections, you vote for someone who will look both big and small that should be looked at.In Malaysia we are so used to the having politicians being a few steps higher than the regular citizen and for someone to gain access to your elected representative is normally extremely difficult.
The elected representative’s job is to to represent the voters in a particular constituency and bring these problems to the right sources and ultimately getting the problems resolved. After the 8th of March there was a better mix of oppositions in the equation as ruling party representatives. This is superb as there is a balance that keeps those in office on their toes and to perform up to expectations.
One of my favourite elected representative is Hannah Yeoh, she has been very impressive in my eyes in her work and simply focused on her constituency in making it a safe place to live in and always accessible. If you read her blog some of the work that she has been doing, it gives you a good feeling that the people of Subang Jaya have done well in voting her into office. (more…)
How Good Is The MyCard?
Saturday, December 27th, 2008
In Malaysia we have the MyKard. This apparently is a break through technology that was implemented to bring Malaysia to the new era of technology and to ease life for all Malaysians. Yes it looks good and it consolidates your identification,your license information(which is still not at 100%) and the touch n go!
Anyway.. Did you know that Estonia is another country that has implemented a similar solution but they have since taken their version which they call the ID Card and ran with it.
Pretty much looks and feels the same as the MyKard isnt it? Well, yes thats about the only similarity between the MyKard and Estonia’s ID Card. As usual we come up with very good ideas fast and gets implemented fast but what happens after that? We very seldom evaluate how this can be further improved. Its like our transportation system, when there is a need to improve the system we get a refresh of the buses used! That’s improving the transportation system apparently but have you seen the condition of the apparent refreshed buses after a year? Have you heard of improved networks? I haven’t at least!
Anyway…To give you a idea of what Estonia have done, watch the video below! (more…)

So check out the this one and hopefully you find something interesting and cheap! And please, go early!

Samsung to go Android
Wednesday, December 24th, 2008
The Samsung Omnia is a pretty neat phone and the closest or some think its even better than the iphone. In fact i was messing with the phone at a Samsung concept store over the weekend and it is pretty awesome. Im a strong believer that if the ipone is not being sold in Malaysia, that simply means that apple is not too bothered about your business so why should you even be so gung-go about getting one?
Samsung Omnia is here and the good news is that Samsung is all set to join the Google Android club by announcing plans to launch its first phone running the OS in Q2.The new phone, due in Q2 in the US to start, will be based on a remodeled Samsung Omnia. Should be very interesting to have the new OS on this pretty neat phone!
Reds Blowing It?
Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008We are close to the busy Christmas period for the English Premier League. Lady luck seems to be shinning bright on the Reds this time around with them sitting pretty right on top of the league even though they have been playing some lousy football in my view.
In recent weeks, the Reds have managed to retain the top spots despite poor draws against Hull,Arsenal and West Ham. There was one win against Blackburn right after the West Ham draw but in my view, its still not good enough to justify being the top team in England. As a Liverpool fan for more than 20 years, its makes me sick to the stomach that the team is set out defensively against even the likes of West Ham and Hull?!
Everyone probably has their ideal line-up but it may not be as straight forward as a generic team against any team. Opponents tactics must be taken into consideration and the best players to perform must be determined before each match. Then there is the problem of injuries and suspensions to live with. In my view considering the current scenario ,my ideal team to start against most teams now would be a straight 4-4-2.
Reina
Arbeloa Carra Agger Insua
Babel Gerarrd Alonso Riera
Kuyt Keane
I think Babel should start games because he has pace to terorize defences together with Riera and with both of them with a shot in them, they can be a threat to any goalkeeper. Up front, i think that Kuyt and Keane should be played together because Kuyt can score a goal and Keane can be a pain to any defence. In defence, since Skrtel and Aurelio are injured, Insua and Agger must be given a extended run in the team and they are players any team would want in theirs.
I hope that the Reds buck up and stop dropping points. If we had won the 3 draws, Liverpool would be easily 7 points ahead of the pack coming into the busy Christmas period. I hope that Rafa stops giving us Red fans constant heart attacks during games and to be honest, Liverpool are not the best team in England right now just the luckiest of the pack!
And who said Keane cant play? Did you see the goal he scored against Arsenal?? Time to give him a extended run in the first team, if he does not deliver..Take him off?! But he deserves his chance at it!!
50Mbps Broadband
Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008
While you are complaining how it takes you a few days to download a movie, The virgin group have launced a 50mbps broadband speed!! There will be no download limits and no traffic management.
Now how much does it cost??
£51 per month for non-Virgin phone users and a more reasonable £35 for those that take a phone line [approximately £11 per month].
Yea before you start converting that to your currency, look at it as dollar for dollar.If you earn RM10,000 a month, someone in UK earns 1000 pounds. And if you look at it that way, for the money i am paying now i should be on a 100mbps line eh?
Do you think you will ever get to enjoy such speeds in this lifetime at a affordable rate??
Im not tooooooooooooo sure about that! What are your thoughts?
