We could never have a exact prediction on what is going to happened even with advance planning. At times, we might missed some golden opportunity and made some wrong turning. Apart from being upset for what had past, we should look forward and concern about the future! Because this is my life.. if it is to be it's up to me :) Live it... Love it... This is my life
Saturday morning we went to FRIM again for a morning walk. Never realised that the small small forest is actually so big ;) and i’ve calculated how long we need to walk inside in order to complete the forest. the sky was quite cloudy when we started to walk.. and goh joo joo say i’m ‘dark bird’ cos every time i wanted to go FRIM it will ended up raining. but luckily the weather was just nice for us to complete the walk in the forest. and the warm sun just rise and shine after we complete the hill ;)
later we stay home for a while and went for lunch at natural which is nearby my office. then i went back to office to complete the review of engagement letter, billing and stuff.. tiring. and also waiting for my old manager to help her to fix her computer. but i did not managed to fix it. cos i’m computer illiterate? never mind will try sometime in the future.
then went back to have dinner. family dinner with all the uncle cos uncle Beng Kar is flying off to OZ and might not be coming back for some time. after the dinner we have small chit chat at home and to my surprise my cousin hactor told me that i did something which i have no memory of it. haha.. it’s either he is lying or … i have suffered memory lost.
Sunday did not wake up too early. but suddenly feel like wanna try to cook something special. so i decided to try to cook scramble egg when i started to cook… just realised the ingreediant to cook is not available… so i gotta wake mr goh up and ask him to go to the supermarket
so off we go to supermarket. there’s a lot of people in J and it’s just early in the morning. we did our shopping quicky tried not to spend too much of our time in the shopping centre as we might end up using more money at the end. however, i found that the ingrediant that i’m looking for to cook is not available at JJ.. then have to go to another hypermarket opposite.
so off we go again… again the hypermarket is crowded. a lot of people waiting for trolley which they do not know where to get it. and you have to wait for long que even with the presence of the express lane.
after shopping, we went home and i started cooking. tried to cook scramble egg.. but bcos i’ve not put enough milk scranble egg bcame fried egg. but with the intention for experiment and testing.. we tried another one. this time success but doesn’t taste too nice.. never mind will experiment again next time.
i cooked again abolone mushroom soup with a little help from campbel soup. should be nice but yet there is room for improvement.
the afternoon was hot and i have to crack my head to think of how to do billing for the client which recently dropped us. how to recover the time cost. whether it’s profitable or not.
at nite.. goh joo joo went for sport with his brother and i ended up helping his sister in law doing e-filing again i should use this skill to cari makan and sponsor our Taiwan trip… haha… so.. anybody need help in doing their tax return????
today went to K fast food chain restaurant... then we realised that the price had increased. this shows how long we have not been to K restaurant...
and the best part of it is the food portion just got 'bigger' it's either our appetite 'has gone down' or the food just happened to got 'bigger' in response to the government's appeal to the businessman to reduce the price to help the people fight the economy crisis.
now you can see in most hypermarket there are a lot of price cutting promotion in response to the government's appeal but whether the things are cheapper is a question another issue that might arise is whether due to the price decrease have we made any unnecessary purchase? which we will not do when the price is high?
as a main market player the S internet providing more and more SxxKing services
it keep on DC DC DC lately on my internet services with other internet player around... others might be providing a better services at a higher price with low DC rate but still other player have their own limitation. (as they are new in the market the area speed and coverage might not be as good as the current S internet provider)
good thing is S internet provider does not monopolised the market anymore as i'm doing my posting here.. the c2pid internet connection got DC again.. damn... it had make me more and more frustrated how can it be? when you provide service to others your customer expect the best services regardless where and how the service being provided.
damn... (why make me start cursing again????) luckily the internet connection is back.. so i can post my frustration on my blog ;)
in order to meet the group budget i need to boost up the group billing suddenly i discovered that the fees are not recoverable.. what to do and how to do? damn it... i do not know why others are charging so high? what happened?for such a small comp why charging so high how my recovery gonna be?
(i gonna stop cursing inside my blog other wise my blog would be full of curse which i feel that is so not myself) need to start working to earn more money for the group in turn earn more money for myself ;)

有時候，你被人誤解，自己不想爭辯，所以選擇沈默。 sometimes when you are being misunderstood you do not wanna argue, therefore you choose silence. 本來就不是所有的人都得了解自己，因此你認為不必對全世界喊話。 since not everybody understand yourself, as such you do not response to the whole world.
卻也有時候，你被最愛的人誤解，自己難過到不想爭辯，也只有選擇沈默。 at times, you love one misunderstood you you felt so down that you do not wanna argue 全世界都可以不懂你，但他應該懂，若他竟然不能懂，還有什麼話可說?
have been coughing the whole morning.. until like your whole lung is going to come out… damn… i tot sick has come to the closing ceremony has it has decided to leave me alone for good.

but i just realised i forgot to try pei pa go... trying it now... hopefully i'll be better soon...
otherwise... have to ask mom to cook white porridge for myself.
damn... why when i need a lot of energy i fall sick. why when i need a lot of courage i became a chicken
why i got a lot of question but there is no answer for myself?
yeah.. my 3 good friends... sore throat, fever and cough is chasing after myself. and keep on following me
fever doesn't follow me so closely and he came on and off. and cough was developed recently which i should not take ice cream and cold water. damn myself.
sore throat became my best friend since Monday do not wanna go so near with my friends since it might be contagious. i should not have take vege rice on tuesday and fried rice yesterday.

damn... dunno why... i was being blocked from using my gmail account from my desktop... kanasai... how could this happened?
i'm wondering wondering and wondering? if that's the case, how can i do my daily blogging everyday to release my stress?
damn IE can access to my account... but firefox can't
damn... wat's the problem now? is it a virus? or should i just restart firefox and try again...
i'm terribly upset now cos my three friends are still in tag with me... and i cant go into my gmail account using my firefox... kanasai... hopefully it is just an error by firefox... nothing to do with my account.
always remember i used to post the thanks a million post to those who greet me happy b'day every year... but this year i did not cos i would think it's a bit fake if being done too often... so... this year try to put my appreciation of the wishes from all my friends inside my heart... just need to be greatful some people still remember my b'day. arigato to all that has wish me happy b'day :P
yesterday was happy 7 years with mr driver and to celebrate 7 years itchy (七年之痒） which might or might not happen we decided to have our dinner at this newly open restaurant in 1u
it's a new vege restaurant in 1u which is newly open. read about it on the internet and bravo... there is two choice for those who take vegetarian and wish to shop at 1u. you can flip the coin (as what laughing ko did when he have a defficult decision) to decide you wanna eat at ground floor or 2nd floor. both restaurant are at the old wing. we ordered ... vege curry mutton. the super friendly waiter say this is the number 1 best dish in the shop. so we ordered and the curry was tick and lemak. we ordered passion fruit bubble tea as well.. how it taste? i guessed it's just normal and nothing special. special fried bun which just match nicely with the curry. also tried the spegetti which is just so so... but the waiter say he will request the boss to change the sauce.. hopefully can get better spegetti next time.. soup of the day which came together with the spegetti set.
after the dinner, we went to watch the movie knowing. not an exciting movie but it's jus a normal movie...
but there are a lot of preview of big hit movies coming in May. yesterday was the first time i use my credit card for movies this month. hopefully i can keep my credit below 1000 this month ;)

this morning the rain is heavy my throat is still sore
i still need to go for work god can get a cure for me?
i've tried everything it doesn't seem to work... nvm let myself recover slowly while i still can work myself to produce good result work ;)
was reading some blogs online to kill time in office and i come accross this post on drawing line
i guessed relationship is difficult and complicated sometimes… you can like many at a time but you are only allowed to love one at a time
but what happened if you are in love with two at the same time? then you are in the love triangle. so what? and at the end maybe everybody in the triangle will get hurt.
so relationship is difficult and complicated. but i do not agreed to the action of a gal to use the kindness of the guy who have feelings towards her. friendship is a treasure of life not to use each other.
maybe i did the same thing last time using others good feelings towards myself to accompany me when i’m lonely? kanasai…
so… my appologies to those which i might hurt them.. and hope that they could get a better person who understand them better ;)
my friends ask whether i'm taking MC i guess not... cos still got a lot of work to do... still got long long way to go... wanna be strong... took vit c already.. hopefully will be better 2moro. my friend told me to sleep earlier.. mr goh ask me to sleep earlier.. but i'm still here blogging... waiting...
i’ve been on vegetarian for like around 10 years and this year will mark my 11th year as a vegetarian…
so… this post i wanna express about is… what’s my experience as a vegetarian.
there is a group of people when they know that you are vegetarian… they don’t respect you.. and they look down on you.. BC you for lunch .. most probably that they are all carniovor eaters. and some even is evil enough to say you sin too much that you have to be a vegetarian… yeah… vegetarian sin… and equal to nothing… that’s the bad things i noticed accidentally.
sad to know that… but i guessed i’m just too kind to forgive them… not forgeting to caci them on my blog.
i also got comment from others like… dun ask me to eat vegetarian… if you ask me to eat vegetarian… i’ll rather die… reli? i guessed the carnivoreness too muched in their blood.
and some really like act very surprised to know that you are actually a vegetarian.. cos i’m low profile vegetarian… not letting everybody know that… just those very close friends knows…
some even like always forget i’m a vegetarian… keep on talking about meat.. but i don’t care… regardless how tasty you told me the meat is… i don’t take it…
it’s great to be a vegetarian… but you need to be careful when choosing what to eat not necessary vegetarian food is healty cos there are a lot of mock meat and stuff which are oily and results to health problem if too much is being consumed..

i wanted to buy the ori ink for my new printer in pc fair.. so i asked the price... then when i went back and decided to buy the ink it was actually sold out...
(%#%@#$@#^$^@$#^#^%#@$^%^&$&)
so went to another stall bought the ink at slight higher price and... i tot there were free gift... but no...
when i went home.. i realised i can get the same price at lowyat also.. oh no... shit.. i feel like myself kena con....
jus now was in my friend's car... suddenly smell why got those smoking smell.. i was wondering... i don't smoke.. neither do my friend... so where does the smell came from?
damn it.. yeah.. it came from the OTown that we yam cha jus now.. we are sitting at the smoking area.. but i think it's the same no matter whether we are sitting at the smoking or non smoking area.. our clothes still have the smoke smell
cp2id ppl who don't love their live... go far far away if you wanna risk your life. please do not risk others at the same time
yesterday went yam cha with YS who came back to kl cos of Easter holiday. went to the ever famous Steven's Corner
so... what i wanna talk about is not about yam cha but is about kena caci..
mr YS say why i don't go exercise and mr Goh also complain about me together with him say i don't like to exercise...
I did not fight back to what they say. but i would think i would prefer others to exercise together like jog at FRIM
i like jog especially at places which is near to the forest and stuff. but other people got a lot of excuse not to accompany me..
So for the time being i would exercise my fingers first.. maybe in a few weeks time i will start to go to FRIM again...
I guessed Mr YS wants me to exercise is because of the incident that happened on his gf lately the pressure that make her not well. but i would think i have my own way out to handle pressure. i'm good at it. i think i'll go through
Something happened in the family which results me to be very upset lately. i do realised the importance of work and work, family problem is family problem. we should not bring our emotion to work if there is any problem we face. i think as a professional, any bad things which happened at home should not affect our work performance. on the other hand any good things happened at home should increase our work performance.
i wrote an e-mail to my other uncle to clarify issues on what had happened in creating this mess.
... e-mail is protected cos it's not intended to be disclosed to everybody...
have not been updating my blog lately cos i’m busy doing individual tax computation for SXXXl… hundrend over tax computation to be completed within short period of time. at times i feel like myself drowning. at times i feel like myself sinking. but.. i ask myself if this is just a small challenge for me and there are some even the bigger one in front. if myself cant survive the small one. how would i survive in the future.
need to swim hard. i have all the support that i can get i need to swim harder even i can’t swim i also need to find my way out.. to swim through to get through everything to pass my probation soonest possible.
pray for me and i’ll get through ;)

Further to my post on 28/3/2009 regarding getting tax refund position from the IRB. yesterday i've gotten my refund cheque. Issued within tepat-tepat 14 days cos the cheque was dated 30/3/2009. Always handle other people's refund cheque... finally it come to my turn to get the refund cheque ;)
i would say good job on the improvement of the government agency who is famous for slow in everything. at least this is the big obvious improvement which i can see with Pak Lah as PM.

somehow i lost my energy to update my blog last few years. but somehow i found back my interest in blogging lately. can see from the increasing post number lately. can see from i changed my template lately.
can see from i visit my blog more often lately. maybe there is nobody at my back looking at me as i have more time to think more time to imagine more time for myself and some advice from friend in term of blogging so i have two blog running simultaneously.
intending to revive my mandarin blog soon hopefully i got da time to do so peak is coming soon hopefully i will survive ;)
last Monday i submitted on tax filing via e-filing (since the government is encouraging us to do e-filing why not support them? someone told me they are concern about the internet safety, whether it is not safe, not convenient and stuff when submitting their tax return via e-filing. but i guess if the system is not good i think the government would not implement it anyway.)I support e-filing cos it's paperless, less error as the tax figures are auto generated and you just need to key in the necessary figures into the relevant column, you can save your return in softcopy, you can recall your acknowledgement when you forget to save it.
As there are some money which i have over paid and refund should be claimed back. I decided to give myself and IRB a little test. that is to see how long it would take for the IRB to issue me with a refund confirmation and refund, since a lot of money and promotion was put in by the government with the pledge to the people that they are working towards fast refund being able to process the refund soonest within 14 days. i do not remember the above 14 days refers to 14 working days or about 2 weeks time. if you can remember there is an advertisement from Pemudah which is the organisation set up by Pak Lah team to improve the government working procedure and working process. I would like to know how fast the IRB would take action since i submitted my tax return via e-filing. So i did not write any letter to the IRB. I just sit and wait. I guess my account is pretty clean and i think it wont take them very long time to process my refund.
So today i received a letter from the IRB dated 2/4/2009 stating they had processed my refund and i should receive my cheque soon. wow.. within 10 working days. should give them credit on the fast action and initiation taken by the IRB. So now what i have to do is wait for the cheque. Wish i think would also be send to me by "POST" Hopefully i can get the cheque by end of the month. cos my poket kosong-kosong lo... :P
anyway, do you know that you can actually apply for instalment payment (for 3-6 instalment) for the balance of tax payable and IRB will write a letter to your employer requesting them to deduct your salary every month? i guess it's good, cos like credit card you can apply for easy payment. you can negotiate with the IRB for the number of payment you wanna make and it would not result to a big hole in your pocket immediately when it comes to tax filing deadline and you can ease your cashflow and help you maintain your budget better.

my friend argued with me why we need to participate during earthhour it’s just another promotional tactic.
but to me… if it is a promotional tactic, it does not require you to spend money to support this action why not just support it?
if it is a promotional tactic it would be a very successful promotion cos the awareness that it has created is very powerful even the auntie would ask whether we should participate during the earth hour so you see how powerful advertisement is like water it goes through blogs, FB, youtube and other other changgih technology stuff also we have radio and television not forgetting the newspaper creating the awareness.

was discussing with a friend regarding earth hour and the post i post in my blog. and he told me why should we care about offing the light for one hour.
actually i guess it is not about whether you should off the light for one hour it's about whether you still concern about the place you are staying which is the earth. you need not really off all the lights in your house and stay in the dark just off those unnecessary light, like those big companies did. i.e. starbucks, GSC and stuff..
last time i do practice offing the lights when we are not in the cubical where we are out for lunch. i think this is a good habbit which i see my old group members are still practicing it till today. sometimes people ask why we off the lights in our group. i guess is just a habbit cos we were told that the management can actually measure the usage of power of your group if you did not switch off the lights.
i guess i should ask my current group member to off the lights when they go off for lunch as well. to save the electricity for an hour during lunch hour. i think a small deed can really make a big difference to the place we stay. it might not be material to yourself. but just by a simple action it would help... why not.. just raise your hand and off the light for an hour?

i've checked the company's list... whether my company is in the list of supporting the earthhour activity. too bad it's not... even the other two big company i.e. P and K company is participating.
but based on t0m@k0's philosophy of if it is to be it's up to me... i can spread the words through my blog...
if you do not intend to off your light. just try to turn off those unnecessary lights turn off your pc turn off your aircon turn off your TV
i think dun look down on this small deed. it will help to contribute to a big deed. cos if it is to be it will be all up to yourself.
reminder again.. to off your lights at 8.30 pm - 9.30 pm Saturday Nite. you can extend if you are happy ;) Vote Earth... Switch off whatever you can switch off...
This year, Earth Hour has been transformed into the world’s first global election, between Earth and global warming.
For the first time in history, people of all ages, nationalities, race and background have the opportunity to use their light switch as their vote – Switching off your lights is a vote for Earth, or leaving them on is a vote for global warming. WWF are urging the world to VOTE EARTH and reach the target of 1 billion votes, which will be presented to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009.
This meeting will determine official government policies to take action against global warming, which will replace the Kyoto Protocol. It is the chance for the people of the world to make their voice heard.
Earth Hour began in Sydney in 2007, when 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights for one hour. In 2008 the message had grown into a global sustainability movement, with 50 million people switching off their lights. Global landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Rome’s Colosseum, the Sydney Opera House and the Coca Cola billboard in Times Square all stood in darkness.
In 2009, Earth Hour is being taken to the next level, with the goal of 1 billion people switching off their lights as part of a global vote. Unlike any election in history, it is not about what country you’re from, but instead, what planet you’re from. VOTE EARTH is a global call to action for every individual, every business, and every community. A call to stand up and take control over the future of our planet. Over 74 countries and territories have pledged their support to VOTE EARTH during Earth Hour 2009, and this number is growing everyday.
We all have a vote, and every single vote counts. Together we can take control of the future of our planet, for future generations.
VOTE EARTH by simply switching off your lights for one hour, and join the world for Earth Hour. Saturday, March 28, 8:30-9:30pm
On Saturday, March 28, 2009, at 8:30 p.m. (Malaysian Time or you can choose at your local time), t0m@k0 will be taking part in Earth Hour, sponsored by the World Wildlife Fund. I’ll be joining tens of millions of concerned citizens and corporations in calling for action to save our planet for future generations.
I'm proud that I'm making a statement about the fight against climate change, and you can sign up to participate, too. You can learn more about Earth Hour at www.EarthHour.org, and you can sign up to participate at www.EarthHour.org/signup.
If you’d like a high level history of Earth Hour, more than 50 million people in 400 cities around the world took part in Earth Hour 2008. The lights went out at Sydney’s Opera House, Rome’s Coliseum, the Empire State Building and the Golden Gate Bridge and Even our very own KLCC and KL Tower and also Penang Bridge will go dark during the earth hour. Even the Google homepage went dark for the day. Many major corporations took part including HP, Coca-Cola, and Morgan Stanley. This year, Earth Hour promises to be even bigger. In Malaysia, cities large and small have said they’ll participate including Kuala Lumpur with more signing on daily. They will join international cities such as Beijing, Cape Town, Copenhagen, Edinburgh, Helsinki, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, London, Manila, Mexico City, Moscow, Rome, and Toronto. You can view WWF’s video about Earth Hour 2009 at www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjWD8pbK5t8 to get a sense of the magnitude of this event.
I’m excited about Earth Hour and I hope you’ll join me in uniting with the world to make a difference for our planet. Don’t forget—March 28th at 8:30 pm, turn out, take action.
Thanks,
t0m@k0
P/s you can choose to go dark completely or... 1) to stay away from your computer and switch it off and also your modem and stuff for one hour from 8.30 to 9.30 2) to off your air-conditioner 3) to switch off unnecessary lights 4) to sit down and write your feelings about participating in earth hour 5) to spread the word to your neighbour, friends and family 6) you need not go to shopping as shopping centres such as the curve, jusco are committed to participate in earth hour 6) last and foremost, spread the word out.. ask yourself and your friend to support earth hour
On March 28, 2009 at 8:30 pm, tens of millions of people around the world will turn out their lights for one hour — Earth Hour—to demonstrate their concern for our living planet and send a loud message to our leaders that they support action on climate change. Here are a few ideas for ways your organisation can support and publicise Earth Hour:
1. Hold a contest among employees with a prize for the best ideas for reducing waste and cutting energy consumption in your company’s daily operations. 2. Ask your business partners, suppliers and industry peers to support Earth Hour. Hang banners and posters so that your support is visible to all who enter your offices or buildings. 3. Turn your website “go black” during the week leading up to Earth Hour; make all white backgrounds black and all black text white. (Google did this in 2008!) Post a blurb about the event on your homepage that links to the Earth Hour home page. 4. Hold a company-wide event or celebration for employees the week proceeding Earth Hour and serve “green-themed” refreshments. Host an Earth Hour “lights out” party for your staff, customers and vendors on the night of the event. Be sure to turn out at 8:30 pm local time. 5. Schedule a meeting or send an email to employees from the Chairman or CEO explaining why the company is supporting Earth Hour and urge them to “turn out” at home. The entire executive team, including the CEO, should pledge to participate as well. 6. Create an Earth Hour section on the company intranet where employees can post ideas for celebrating Earth Hour and photos following up the event. 7. Hold employee contests with awards going to the staff member who recruits the most people to sign a pledge to say they will participate or who comes up with the most creative promotional idea for Earth Hour. 8. Ask the company cafeteria to hold a special candlelight lunch the week of Earth Hour, featuring dishes prepared using organic and sustainably products to remind employees about the event. 9.

We should off lights which we do not only during earth hour but during our daily life when we need not on the light unnecessarily so.. support earth hour by... (see my next post)
the firm is taking some action on cutting cost. Saving cost by using less dispatch and more on courier service which is much much more cost effective.
some how i think it’s good in a way that it create a win-win situtation or 双赢 situation for both client and us. but i would wonder whether some would think it is troublesome. sometimes i would think whether there is a necessary for us to send all the documents by hand since it’s so expensive. and client might comment why you need to send by hand while you can send to me via courier.
in this economy down time people look at various way to cut their cost. sometimes they like your service. but they need to cut cost. so they find various reason to say this is too high that is too high end up you will come to a situtation that you will loose the job.

You might notice that I’ve change the title of my blog to t0m@k0’s life..
This correspond to the new blog template which I’ve switch yesterday where it was prefixed
Something about… on the coffee cup
And so I should be continue with t0m@k0’s life
And there is also a tag on t0m@k0’s cr@p in d@ 0ffic3 which is the wordpress blog where I can post what I’m thinking when I’m bored.
And also tag on website which I need to go very often daily ;)
Would like to changed to the small intro of my blog
We could never have a exact prediction on what is going to happened even with advance planning. At times, we might missed some golden opportunity and made some wrong turning. Apart from being upset for what had past, we should look forward and concern about the future! Because this is my life.. if it is to be it's up to me :) Live it... Love it... This is my life

whether are you above average you are average or below average

i spend the weekend not working but more to more time for myself. saturday went for movies which i think is a meaningful one, shopping yeah again spend a lot of money. i guess i should keep my credit card and prevent it from being used by me
then sunday i stay at home and we bought some abalone … yeah abalone mushroom and i decided to show a bit of my cooking.. but i do not know how to cook :P hahaha… so..
i cooked those instant mushroom soup with abalone mushroom inside which i think which turn out to be a very good soup. and also fried frog leg using some egg and special frying flour it turn out to be a nice dish even i think that i’m not a good cook but i do see the happiness of being able to cook with the person you like and cook for the person you like geh.
Slumdog reminds me of poverty which still exist at the very moment that we are being bz complaining our life is like this not good like tat not good. we got not enough attention and love from the people that we want them to pay attention at I'll mumble that i have no money and i'm broke and very poor but... money not enough...
but when you think and compare with those people in the movie they are people who are really living in a bad condition no money; no live
and we really like living 10X or even 100X better than them yet we are keep on complaining too many work; too much pressure; too little pay; too little happiness
but on the other hand when your mind start to complain.. think about them compare them with yourself you would feel better cos you really live better as compared to them you would feel glad and happy
today went to watch Slumdog Millionaire for free... why cos it's my b'day this month (ok please dun let too many people know about it :P)
haha... we are longing to watch the movie for a long time eva since it won many oscar award... but too bad the tickets are difficult to be booked for so we put on hold the intention of watching the movie and so happened this week my fren Trevor told me that he is going to watch Slumdog Millionaire
He thinks it's quite a good movie. thanks to him i remember that i wanted to watch this movie and so i happened to watched the movie a day later than him. and before the movie when i was surfing the GSC's website i suddenly remember there is this b'day free movie thingy so i quicky printed out the coupon and it saved me RM 10 ;)
so what do i think about the movie.. nothing much.. just that it reminds me about the following how 幸福 we are:- 1) little kids in the movie have to beg in order survive 2) little kids was purposely being blinded in order for them to beg for more money 3) little kids have to steal and cheat for a living 4) little kids lost their parents when they were young and they have to live on their own in order to survive 5) some people in the world does not even get to travel outside their own country and some have taken plane more than the number of times they taken a bus 6) you need not be a genius to be a millionaire 7) you need luck and gust to be a millionaire
i like the final part of the movie where both the actor and actress dance at the train station. yeah it's the typical Hindi movie style some like to watch Hindi movie cos of the dancing and the actor chasing actress along the bush... and now you see me now you don't game in between the trees

my new position makes me feel more and more stressful thinking about budget, billing and collection. about how to justified the fees to bill client and i also think about it when i'm sleeping i think it's getting into me.
but i just feel that it is part and parcel of my career learning which i should learn. nobody is there to hold ur hand as what i said previously. you have to find your own way out. either you learn it in a hard way or an easy way

mood going up and down up and down lately
cos i’m placed in between a pile of big mess. do not know where to begin with.
yeah i was placed in a pile of mess before. do not know what and where to begin with before. i went through the hard way.. try to give my best service and people remember what i’ve done for them and yes people talk about me when they meet others and they ask whether you know this person she is very nice bla.. bla.. bla…
but i’ve also gotten a lot of complain not those type which you wish to listen. anyway life is never a bed of roses waiting for you that’s what my x boss always tell me. maybe i should get more consultation from her so that i would be able to improve myself further.
i have no idea seems like i’m lost but i cant turn back cos the road behind me was block with rocks and stuff.. i have no ideas i’m alone.. nobody to hold your hand to guide you you have to swim alone. you would be answerable to all the question raised you would be responsible for all the faults and error you made. you are responsible for not taking care of the error that your staff have made.

today my bf's friend came all the way down from S'pore to do some survey on cuti-cuti malaysia. So we went to Matta fair... and bought the genting out door theme park ticket for two.
(The story does not seem to have connection with going to Matta fair and buying genting theme park ticket. but what is the purpose of going Matta fair.. to get something cheap... but it does not attract us much on the tour package since we are saving money for something else. buying the ticket is because i wanna go to the theme park since i reli never been to it before)
actually we looking for tour package to Taiwan for wedding photographing session. but judging by the package offered by the travel agent it seems like it would be nicer if you search and request online by yourself. so we are still considering whether to continue with our plan for the wedding photographing session in Taiwan.
Anyway, it seems to be very very cheap to go for tour in Taiwan this year. only about 2k you can tour taiwan for about a week.
after going for Matta Fair we went home for food at restaurant nearby our house. then... my bf bring his friend and his friend's sister to the ever famous jalan ipoh bak kut teh... for dinner
then next stop we went to mid valley to contribute the country's economy development and national spending... we got some very good bargain on watches as they are on cheap sales of discount at 70% which we need to pay around 50 bucks for a 175 original cost watch. consider very good bargain. and some other money was spend for some other reason and we really contributed much to boost the economy of Malaysia ;)
then later... after that we went for dim sum at Jalan Ipoh... and we also contributed to the country's economy. cos we ate quite a lot of stuff.. (anyway i din eat anything cos nothing suits me) so we end our first day Jalan Ipoh makan tour

now is almost the age for those who are dating stably to consider of getting married and getting a house / condo for our own.
a lot of our friends starting to consider to get a house of their own. herm... when buying a house there are a lot of things to consider. first and foremost whether you got the money to pay the down payment which would be around 20k to 30k. you can source internally using your own fund... or you can borrow it from FaMa Bank... or if you are lucky enough.. just buy your lucky number and claim from uncle Tan..
after ensuring that you have this down payment to begin with. then you need to search for a strategic location wish to stay.. if you have been staying in jalan ipoh or kepong area for a long long time... you might wanna consider Alam Puri (but already almost sold out) or First Residence, Kepong (Mix commercial & residential development along Jalan Kepong Baru which omprising 58 units of shops and 474 units of condominiums)
then when you go to buy the house you must check nicely the developer's and contractor's background and stuff to ensure you dun throw money that you have earn with all your hardwork into the salted water (to be continued)

a lot of people is waiting for some sweetener distributed during the so called mini budget.
so the box was opened today. and some of the sweetener are as follows:-
subsidies to avert price increases of necessities such as sugar, bread and wheat flour
subsidies to ensure that toll rates are not increased.
house buyers be given tax relief on interest paid on housing loans of up to RM10,000 a year for three years.
additional allocation to repair and maintain drains and roads, and improve the surroundings of public flats to ensure more comfortable living conditions (yes judging by the recent flash flood in KL and Johor i think this is a must for the government to take action)
Issuance of syariah-compliant Savings Bonds with a maturity of three years and an annual return of 5% (3% higher than the current FD rate leh!!) and will be paid quarterly to bond holders. (but how many of this bond would be entitle to us before they are being swipe clean by the "related parties" and "connected parties" with the bank leh?)Anyway, the bonds are available to all citizens aged 21 and above, with a minimum investment of RM1,000 and a maximum of RM50,000.
Existing tax exemption of RM6,000 given on retrenchment benefits be increased to RM10,000 for each completed year of service.
Employers who hire workers retrenched from July 1 2008 be given double tax deduction on the amount of remuneration paid. The amount of remuneration eligible for this deduction shall not exceed RM10,000 per month for a period of 12 month
More job at government agencies.
Malaysians would also be encouraged to pursue Masters and PhD courses. The Government will undertake to finance tuition fees and research grants of up to RM20,000 for every student pursuing a PhD locally. (yeah it's a good time to study when you got retrenched)
Permanent resident status would be considered for high-net-worth individuals bringing more than US$2mil for investments or savings in Malaysia. (I think Andy Lau can bring all his money into Malaysia and Malaysia would welcome him as son-in-law as well as a PR in Malaysia). Highly skilled foreign professionals may also be considered for permanent resident status.
Company’s current year losses be allowed to be carried back to the immediate preceding year. The treatment will improve the company’s cash flow compared with the current tax treatment. Total losses to be carried back is up to RM100,000 per year. The tax treatment is applicable for year of assessment 2009 and 2010. (This is a very new treatment introduced. first time in Malaysia, but i do not know about other country. But i think the IRB has done a good job as in providing the guideline on how this thingy works. to expect more discussion and meetings on this issue. to expect more job to come in. to recheck on companies which are making profits and expect to make loss soon.)
Retrenched workers are able defer the repayment of their housing loans for one year. Interest income related to the deferment of housing loan repayments be taxed only when such interest is received by the financial institution.
Auto-scrapping scheme for PROTON and PERODUA. Discount of RM5,000 will be given to car owners, who trade in their cars, which are at least 10 years old, for the purchase of new PROTON or PERODUA cars. The Government will finance part of the discount borne by PROTON or PERODUA.
Expenses incurred on plant and machinery be given Accelerated Capital Allowance, which can be claimed within 2 years. This treatment is applicable to investments incurred between 10 March 2009 and 31 December 2010. (interesting... more job more planning to do?)
Expenses incurred on renovation and refurbishment of business premises between 10 March 2009 and 31 December 2010 be given Accelerated Capital Allowance, which can be claimed within 2 years. The Allowance is capped at RM100,000. (interesting... more standard letters to be prepared?)
so..
how much will the people benefit from this mini budget? i guess what i see is more tax planning opportunity ahead. or you can buy your own house with your daddy's money now and get some savings from the interest that you paid for or you can get yourself retrenched... and ask your potential employer to pay you a high high salary cap at RM 10k and your potential employer can claim double the deduction of your salary cost.

yeah.. the DPM aka FM1 announced the new economy stimulation package..
but the thing i most concern is about the interest deduction. so DPM says
Currently, investment sentiment in the housing sector is weak, given that both developers and buyers appear to be adopting a cautious attitude to build and to own houses. Therefore, to stimulate the housing sector, the Government proposes that house buyers be given tax relief on interest paid on housing loans up to RM10,000 a year for 3 years.
so when you are thinking wow.. this is good news and i just bought my first house last year. so i would be entitle to the deduction? please see the following T&C applies..
1)house must be purchased from developer or third party 2)tax payer is a Malaysian citizen and a resident (so if you stay in Singapore and you are not a Malaysian tax resident you might not entitle to the above benefit. maybe it does not make any difference to you since you might not be taxable in Malaysia.) 3)limited to one residential house including flat, apartment or condominium 4)sale and purchase agreement is executed between 10 March 2009 and 31 December 2010. (meaning you sign the S&P on or after 10/3/2009. but how about those lower income group who have purchase the house earlier? and what if they loose their job now?)
DPM say :-
The Government is cognisant of the problems faced by retrenched workers in repaying their housing loans. To assist them, banking institutions have agreed these retrenched workers defer the repayment of their housing loans for one year.
Nevertheless the tax deduction is given for 3 consecutive years from the first year the housing loan interest is paid and is effective from year of assessment 2009.
So after concluding all the T&C above do we fall under the above categories? the answer is no. so the above proposal is not beneficial at all. maybe should expand the scope to people who bought their houses since 1/1/2008 (ya i fall under this category) and extend the time period up to 5 years? or expand the house price up to 350k? but to me the proposal have too little benefit on myself. so nothing much excites me.

followed my bf back to his hometown. went to the newly opened kluang mall it's a new attraction for people in kluang.
so he was wondering whether all the branded shop like shushi king, secret recipe and big apple would be able to survive?
i think sometimes people in small town is even richer than those staying in big city. but what matters is whether people who living in the small town is willing to spend on more luxurious life style. what more during this difficult economy situation.
to me i like the life of small town. but it does not give me the reward that i want to get? i'm still wondering :P

based on our observation of the construction status of our condo.. we notice that the structural framework of our parcel has been completed and the developer went on with level 14.
so i was wondering when the developer will send their second bill. so.. by end of the month the second bill came. so.. about one year from the day we placed our deposit for the house booking and down payment. the developer already collected like 10% + 10% and now another 15% of the money for the house. consider quite fast already rite? construction in high speed in order for us to save some interest. but in this low FD income era... maybe we should seek for negotiation to borrow money from our parents and pay them back with the interest we are suppose to pay the bank i think paying our own parents is better compared the paying the licensed leech? 所谓肥水不留外人田嘛！
dedicating this song to my friend who is wondering why her bf choose to be a 壞人? maybe it just bcos just like what the song say he is:- 我是好人 也是個壞人 分得夠狠 你才有藉口轉身 寧願愛 一點不剩 也不忍 看戀人愛成路人 hope he and she can finally come to their conclusion... happily eva after together or seperate.
yes.. i think the government should increase the toll.. just like what we do… we increase our client’s fee.. but the problem is.. it is the right time to increase?
we are depending on each other to survive.. just like the people of this country is depending on the government to help them to revive the economy. and the government is depending on the people’s support for the to rule out their decision smoothly.
so what’s next… PM says.. to reconsider not to increase the toll. (which by end of the day the decision was out to defer the toll hike till end of the year) so.. we will wait and see what the government wants to do :)
so we would be grateful cos our government is good enough to compensate the losses of the toll concessionaire operator. but i think this is just temporary measure... long term measure.. i think should be.. ai.. just leave it to the government to think about it
the following was adapted from the newspaper website:-
The toll rates for five highways will be increased beginning Mar 1, says works Minister Datuk Mohamad Zin Mohamed today.
They are the North South Highway, Sprint, Ampang elevated highway (Akleh), Sungai Besi and New Pantai Expressway. Toll rates for PLUS highways will go up 0.68 sen per km. The increase for Federal Highway Route 2 linking Batu 3, Shah Alam to Sungai Rasau, Klang and the North South Expressway will be 14.28 sen per km from 13.60 sen per km. This change does not cover Bukit Kayu Hitam, Tambak Johor and Bangunan Sultan Iskandar. Toll rates for Sprint Highway (Kerinchi Link and Damansara Link), Ampang Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH), Sg Besi Highway (Besraya), and New Pantai Expressway (NPE) will see an increase between 10 sen and 50 sen. For Sprint highway, the increase is 50 sen at Pantai toll plaza and 30 sen for Damansara toll plaza, AKLEH will be increased by 50 sen, Besraya by 10 sen and NPE by 40 sen.
so… wat’s the moral of the news? what can 30-50 sen buy you? nothing much rite? so it’s not material to us… but what can 30sen X 2 ways X 5 days = one plate of cheap lunch? i know… i can get two pack of nasi lemak at natural…
so.. wat’s next to increase? or we should take over all the toll company and ask them to cut on toll collection.
some research was done to check on the people's reaction.. most of them object.. why.. at this difficult time... isn't the government is suppose to help it's ppl at difficult time??? anyway.. the country's money still come from the country's people... so why not use it on the people? so.. what our new finance minister have to offer in his new 'saving' malaysia package? we will wait and see

when i came out from the cinema.. and walking half way.. put my hand inside my pocket.. and i jus realised that my pocket seems to be empty. yeah the cover for my phone is inside my pocket... but... where is my phone? shit... i droped it.... but where? so faster rush back to my seat in the cinema where i remember i last saw my phone.. and i was lucky enough to have found my phone under the seat where i sit...
so it was a mere scare to me 虚惊一场 i reli reli thank god that i realised that i have droped my phone and managed to take it back... cos the phone was turn on silience and it would be diffult for me to get back my phone :P
we went to watch tom cruise and brad pit's latest movie on cinema... if you ask which is better... i would say... brad pit is more leng zai.. not quite answering the question rite?
but the point i can say is there are more people watching benjamin as compared to valkery and there are people who snoore when watching valkery. and benjamin is just too long and when you came out of the cinema it's about 3 hours later?
so... my pers0onal opinion... i like benjamin better but it's yet the best movie i've watch thus far this year.. but i'm waiting for transformer by mid of this year. hoping it would not let me down.....

the bank negara is slashing down the overnight policy rate…
and so goes the fixed deposit rate..
i still remember mid of last year when i went to the P bank and the interest rate for the FD if you make placement for one year you would be able to get a return of 3.7% per annum…
and now.. you would only be able to get 2.5% or less.
i wonder… should i continue to place my money in FD or… invest my money elsewhere? but where to invest?
do you feel that you have not enough breath even you did a simple exercise for walking for some distance?
These are symptoms that your blood circulation system might have a Malaysia boleh toll system build up within which cause slow down or even blockage…
so… you gotta do regular exercise…
and also regular checkup on your body.
to ensure there are no such toll being set up within your blood circulation system. '' my uncle just did an agreement with the Malaysia Boleh toll system within his blood circulation system to build an extension of four super highway (by passed they called it).
now he is on his way recovering back from his operation and.. he was aging in high speed also…
hope he will get better by the time he wanted to go to OZ soon..
and thank god that he is lucky enough to tare down the toll before the blood circulation system starts to mogok
and the moral of the story is to take care of your body regardless of your age and sex and dun think you are healty and young... cos you don't reli know whether you are sick untll you get a confirmation from the doc
