How Sweet?

The Star published a story about how they have increased the subsidy of sugar so it not will be a burden to the people.

The global price of sugar is skyrocketing. We have to pay RM567mil for sugar subsidy this year compared to RM262.4mil last year due to the higher prices – Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob

Now i don’t really understand economics but it didn’t sound right, normally there would be lots of noise when something like this happened but i didn’t hear much till i read about and i found an article by Member of Parliament for Petaling Jaya Utara, Tony Pua who explained the situation which is a totally contrasting situation from what the The Domestic Trade, Cooperative and Consumerism Minister  [Read more...]

Maxis : How To Check Data Usage

Here’s a nice tip, this is how you can check how much you have exhausted off your monthly data usage from your monthly Maxis data package. Im on a 500MB plan which is sufficient for me as I’m on wifi when at home where I do my updates and other data hungry activities.

Using this method, you can ensure that you keep your data usage in check. If you don’t know already, it cost a bomb when you pass your monthly data cap so its good to check to ensure you don’t fall under that bracket.

Astro New Packages : Super Packs

I found out about this only recently and i got straight to Astro to evaluate my current package and to see if im paying the lowest price for what i have. I used to pay about RM145 for my entire package (including HD services) and did not have the movie package. Now i dont have the Metro Package but i have movies(which is not cheap!) and i only have to pay RM125. Not bad a savings!

Here is newly introduced Superpacks which i think that everyone should check out! You could end up saving a bit more than you are paying already. The bigger your package the better your savings!

Its probabaly a good idea to consider getting the PVR as well, there is a 50% discount happening right now!

Google Buying Motorola

Here’s a big one :

Google is acquiring the handset division of Motorola, Motorola Mobility, for $12.5 billion!

Acquisition price equates to $40 per share of Motorola stock, or a premium of 63% over Friday’s closing price.

This means that Google is now in the Hardware Business! Massive news, eventhough Android will still be available to the likes of HTC, Sony Ericsson & Samsung who have done a superb job with the OS but this definately changes the playing field tremendously. Whats really interesting is, from what i hear most mobile hardware patents are owned by Motorola so its much more than a hardware maker that Google is getting its hands on.

Larry Page is definately ringing the changes around Google since coming on board
