<br />
This morning I saw a car with plate no starting with <b>G1M </b>. Is this guy from Thailand, Singapore, or is there some new plate no created? As is turns out, its Malaysia very own luxury plates, with pricing starting from Rm 2000.<br />
<br />
Refer <a href="http://www.g1m.com.my/Process/syarat-syarat-tempahan-a-harga-no-plat-g1m.html">here</a> .<br />
<br />
If you got extra cash laying around to join this G1M craze, why not? While your at it, go buy the new Proche 2012 911?

I have managed to finish my 3rd 10km race! ...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
which I only run annually! haha.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The run was the Standard Charted Run 2012. It was a pretty awesome experience this time around....since i paced my first 5 km with a bro on a wheelchair! Kudos to him for his high spirit and determination.. But i was pretty out of depth by following his pace. By the 5km, i couldn't follow no more and finished the race at my normal jog pace.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Thanks to him, i managed to do a personal best of 1h 22mins ! Not a great timing compared to my friends, but I'm proud of it.</div>

</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The pirate shoe industry is blooming as ever. I've read an interesting article the Online <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/22/magazine/22fake-t.html?_r=2&pagewanted=1">New York Times</a>. If you want to be a dealer of pirated shoes, all you need to bring is a pair of the shoes you want to mass copy and distribute, determine the quantity, determine the grade (A class, double A class or even triple AAA class!) and all of it can be delivered up to your doorstep...or any determined address.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">And its a well known fact that Putian, China IS the place to go to do this. Putian anyone?</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">But beware. There have been enforcement on this activity by China, as pointed out in <a href="http://www.asialaw.com/Article/1972065/Search/Results/Anti-piracy-raid-in-China.html?Keywords=accounting&PageMove=21">this article</a>. However, as duly pointed out, piracy in China is not considered a large crime, more of on the level of a speeding ticket.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

It was a 12.3 km run at Putrajaya. As strange as it may seem, i had fun! My personal target was to run below 2 hours. Mission accomplished. I ran (with a mixture of tired brisk walks)1 hour 45 minutes. Ok laaah. Funny events, an old man and a quite large size lady overtook me ...and i couldn't do a thing about it! Why? Too damn tired to even walk!haha. Just imagine the sheer embarrassment that i felt. Salute to those two. Another interesting sighting was a father, pushing his kid in a stroller!And yes, he pushed it all 12.3km! salute!<br />
<br />
My friends who kinda reeled me into this frenzy, clocked much better times. As it turns out, pros run 12.3km in less than an hour! One of my friends who trains regularly, clocked a decent 1h 15 mins. And get this, for every category, only the first 300 will receive medals.The 1 h 15mins friend didn't get a medal! <br />
<br />
How many of them ran sub 1 hour?! Do they have 2 hearts and 4 lungs!!!haha.<br />
<br />
In short, though i still have sore legs as i'm typing this, i still enjoyed myself. Bring on the next run!<br />

Result: pure bliss. Enjoy gila. Both me wife and I dont know how to swim. But clad with our life jacket, we snorkeled dengan bestnya. Especially proud with my wife, because she is scared of the open sea, plus tak reti swim. After me and friends coached and comforted her, she was soon 'at one' with the sea, and morphed into ikan duyung.hehe. all in all, a great trip!<br />

Nowadays, the way i see it, there are several options for the extra income. This is based on my personal observation of my friends, colleagues. Here they are, in no particular order : <br />
<ol><li>If your work is O.T entitled, pedal to the metal, go for it. Make sure you do work, don't want any trouble with your boss.</li>
<li>Photography - event photography, such as weddings, dinner, etc. Needs a hefty sum to start up though.</li>
<li>MLM - Multilevel marketing. There a lot on offer, pick one, stick with one, and with hard work and gods will, you'll be successful.</li>
<li>Adsense, Adbrite, Nuffnang and other web marketing.</li>
<li>Forex - Make money through crosses of currency pairs.Eg: GBP/USD. Kindly practice on a demo account before investing real money.</li>
<li>Freelance - offer whatever expertise to those that require your skill.</li>
<li> Buy / Sell things online.</li>

Damn these fantastic blend of these youth and old heads. Slaughtered first, England, and then me favorite team, Argentina. 2 players whom caught me eye was Ozil and Muller. World class. Ozil, to me, is a great architect, and left footed i might add. Which brings him along the list of great left footers, Messi, Robben...and myself..hehe..i wish.<br />
<br />
Since this Germany team defeated me Argies, im supporting anything but them. The rest of the world against Germany.First up, Come on Spain!!!m afnanzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01468528727279773323noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7697143740184764388.post-79569903671763379222009-12-27T01:32:00.000+08:002009-12-27T01:32:13.584+08:00Genting HighlandsDecided to go on a whim. One night stay, next day back to mainland. Wanted to feel a change of air. Cold, breezy, a great change of climate. Yes we knew it was christmas eve, anticipating a party atmosphere, but my wife and i were there just to chill, hang out, and enjoy the change of weather and scenery. Of course, it wasn't snowing, but it was still a white, misty christmas!<br />
<br />
Santas boping about, carols hummed, evergreen songs, birds chirping away, a great christmas spirit. We enjoyed the scene, but we were after the cold breeze, so outside we strolled...and crazy enough, butts freezed and all, we had a great time.<br />

<span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"></span><br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Dear President Obama,<br />
So nice to hear from you, and let me just say that it's an honor to be pen pals with a third American President. (Your letter has joined the ones I received from Bush and Clinton in pride of place on my office bulletin board.) I know you guys all personally took the time to write me, but it's kind of funny — all your letters say more or less the same thing. Dear President Kim, before you stands a historic choice: you can either (A) join the family of nations, opening the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) to economic benefits, new trading relationships and diplomatic recognition from Washington, or (B) you can continue down the road of isolation and penury if you continue to develop nuclear weapons.<br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">One of my aides tells me that some psychiatrist in the West once defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting to get a different result. I thought that was pretty good, though I imagine in your State Department there are some folks who probably don't get the joke. But never mind. As you guys like to say, let me cut to the chase: In response to the choices you offer me, I choose B. Isolation. Penury. And nukes. (Most of all, nukes.)<span style="color: #cc0000; display: block; font: normal normal bold 12px/155% georgia, arial, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Now I know that you think that makes <i>me</i> insane. After all, I run one of the most impoverished countries in the world. Here, a boom year is any one in which we manage to avoid a famine that kills thousands. But you have to understand, what I value most is control. That's what my father, our country's heroic founder, the Great Leader Kim il-Sung, desired; it's what I desire; and I've pretty much bet the family jewels that my 26-year-old son, Kim Jong-Un, will want the same thing when he takes over in a few years. Absolute, total control over pretty much everything.<br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">I recently changed the denominations of our currency to wipe out the savings of anyone who possessed over 300,000 won (basically a few hundred of your dollars). Why did I do this? Because a lot of those people had earned that money in private markets — which the Party here didn't control — and that made us nervous. Was that beneficial for our economy? No. But it kept us in control.<span style="color: #cc0000; display: block; font: normal normal bold 12px/155% georgia, arial, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">So, by your standards, we are not "rational." I mean, look, we just had a planeload of missile parts intercepted in Thailand. I think you know where that plane was headed. Why in the world would we be shipping parts for our glorious Taepodong 2 missile to Iran, when the entire world is worried about their nuclear program? Because some of my close comrades here in the Party run the trading company that sells the missiles, and the way I keep them loyal is to let them make some money.<br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Now don't me wrong. It's a problem that the plane was intercepted, mostly because it puts the comrades in Beijing in a difficult spot. You could lobby them for more restrictive economic sanctions against us, just as you are now doing with Iran, and they are not comfortable with either — even though they might go along, at least part ways, in order not to seem out of step with the rest of you.<span style="color: #cc0000; display: block; font: normal normal bold 12px/155% georgia, arial, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">But as far as we're concerned, this will blow over. If we've learned anything over the last decade, it's that China is never really going to isolate us economically. They don't want a repeat of the starvation of the late 1990s, which flooded the northeastern part of their country with our refugees. Without Beijing's help, you're never going to muster enough economic pressure to change our ways. And my nuclear ace-in-the-hole ensures that no one will really mess with us. Why in the world would I ever give that up?<br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">So here's what I suggest: Let's take the three steps you guys always propose in your letters — denuclearization, leading to economic benefits, leading to diplomatic recognition — and flip them: Recognize the DPRK and normalize relations first, because it should be obvious to you guys by now that our regime is not going anywhere. Then, lend us some money, build a power plant or two, maybe help us with agriculture and food production. And then, after a while — a decade, perhaps? — if enough trust has been built up, then maybe we'd start to think about getting rid of our nukes.<br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Maybe.<br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Anyway, thanks for writing, Barack. Always good to hear from you U.S. Presidents, even if you do always say the same thing.<br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Yours truly,<br />
The Dear Leader<br />
Kim Jong Il<br />
