tiME

Time,
Alwiz ticking away
every seconds, minutes and hours of everyday
only ticking forward & not backward
Once the time past, you can never turn back the time again!

Time,
When you wanted it to move faster
The slower it moved though
When you wanted the time to slowdown
zo0m........
It is even faster that the speed of light! ('kua zhang' abit)

Time,
One Day the TIME will come
When we Cant Do Anything
to Prevent or Stop THAT time fr0m coming
Worst still
this TIME might just take you by suprise
That's when we realized our TIME's up!

; )

Why

Why o why
Why must you come to me?
Why must you choose me?
Why must you infect me?

Why must I feel weak because of you?
Why must I feel sick because of you?
Why must I suffer because of you?

Can you pls leave me as soon as possible?
Can you pls go now!
Can you just leave me al0ne!
Can you not disturb me anymore?


I beg u.........






Damn o Damn VIRUS

Sumatera Utara 2


Language Barrier

Bahasa Indon or watever language it is called is quite hard 2 undst when spoken by the locals there but when listening to the radio, the language is still understandable. Basically they sounded so 'malay' with a slang.

wang - uang
universiti - universitas
Ogos - Augustus
Julai - Juli
Akaun - Akuntasi

Accomodation

The place where I sleep & eat during my stay there. Every1 stay under 1 shelter. Even the GM & Financial Controller. They are both M'sians working in Indon and there are 2 more Chinese Malaysians from Muar there. They all made my stay in Indon easier.

Transportation

My main mode of transport in Indon! Of course i dont have to drive myself lo.. Got driver ma! But in the area I went, hard to c those normal 'Sedan' cars...Mostly i saw this 4 wheels & most if not all are Toyotas!!! The their toyota sure got this "KIJANG" word de...no matter wat model

Experiences
One think that caught my attention there is that most of their road do not have lines in the middle so at times mmg susah to differentiate between 1 way n 2 way. Then right, in the middle of the road pula ada tong tong then ada orang duduk in the middle of the road holding a net pula.. I fikir & fikir also cant think of the logic of sitting in the middle of the road with net. So I ask the financial controller, & he told that they are 'fishing' for donations for masjid!! Can you digest that? Haha...
Then, I don't think you would 1 to drive in Indon. They used their car's hone all the time, to signal to the drivers in front to 'GET OUT OF MY WAY' & 'I AM OVERTAKING U!' Driving in Sumatera was really stressful. Even me as mere passenger felt the tension-ness!
The 'trishaws' we used to know here are different there. Instead of using bicycle to get it moving, they used motorbikes pula! hehe. They dont have to wear any helmet or any protections too! A ride through the dusty streets in the evening will bring you to the scene of mothers carrying their child siiting outside their 'badly conditioned' house by the road staring blankly & chatting away. They seemed contented despite their simple & limited life!

Sumatera Utara

Just back from 2days 1 night working trip to a factory in Lintas T.Tinggi - P. Siantar Km. 21.5 Kalembak - Dolok Merawan Serdang Bedagai, Sumatera Utara Indonesia!!!

Departure & Arrival
8:30am - Driver came & pick me up.
10.15am - Exited Seremban toll. Arrived safely at LCCT, KLIA soon after. Airport full of buzz, pack with so many people.
Check in, go through normal procedures and waited at waiting area.
10:45-11:45 am - Reached too early? What can I do? Saw ppl using their laptops at d waiting area so I also follow suit. Luckily, there's wireless was available. Surf and chat all d way.....
12:00 noon - Announced the arrival of QZ8055. Queued up and wait for my password to be checked and jalan to the waiting Airbus.

Polonia International Airport, Medan
Arrived about 12:05noon. Yes 12:05noon Indon time. Indon time is 1 hour earlier than our local time.. At the Polonia, all arrivals need to go through 'Health Spray' (Disinfect). There were ppl taking advantage of 1st time tourist there who dunno where to go and wat to do next. This particular guy came and offer his help and being 1st time there, I blindly and stupidly obeyed! He was helpful and I went throught the procedures easily, dont have to wait n queue up but it came with a price! The guy later ask for wang cop passport! I gave. Then, he asked for wang kopi! I was reluctant at 1st and replied "Wang tadi tak cukup? I takde ruppiah lagi belum tukar lagi". But that guy, like any 'money-sucker' around kept pestering me...and me being annoyed, shut his 'smelly mouth' with another piece of Ruppiah!

Went through the gate and saw the 'one' arranged to pick me up. He was holding a piece of card in rectangular shape showing "KEVIN - K***". So i walked straight to him & adknowledged that I was the guy he was waiting for! He told he was waiting for 3 other Auditors from Bandung. So I sat there and he went to the Domestic Arrivals platform and doing the same thing again. Holding another piece of rectangular card with different msg this time around. I waited there for nearly 2hours. Just sitting there observing people and culture in Medan. The taxi there mostly used 'Excel' branded car and colored in blue and red with their company's logo firmly 'chop' at the doors. Let me ask you a Question here. What is the thing that most ppl around the world love the most??? Any idea? personally, I think the answer is CIGARETTE ! Nearly every1, young or old was smoking and the 'asap-asap yg teramat wangi sekali' was filling the air there; make until me so kenot de tahan with the 'aroma'! (4give me for my language here, wahaha!) So nearly 2 hours of 'aromatherapy' there that had shorten my life to 'who noes how many years!' =(
It really amazed me that, both young & old shared d "passion & beauty" of these *tiny paper wrapping tobacco 'time-bomb'* Wahaha!

Thank God after 2hours of sufferings, the 3 Auditors from Bandung finally arrived! Smartly dressed in formal with jacket attached! Look young but after knowing them better, they are not as young as I thought in the 1st place. More of them later on. =) After 2 hours of waiting, next I have to endure another 2-3hours of "ass-pain" to get to the Factory in the address stated above sekali. The journey through the town & road of Indon posed another 'new chapter of xperiences' in my life!!!

New Xperiences!

Just back from KL!!!
N0t a Bad xperience this tiMe around
Got to step my fo0t at the Embassy of Republic of Indonesia
Why was I there in the 1st place?
Well..Well..Well...
What else, if not to apply a Visa to get into Indon for business purposes...
Went there for 2 days...& both days also damn pack with ppl...mostly Indons!

As a Malaccan, of course I do not know the way there from KPMG tower lo..
So I have to rely on the services of taxi or in nicer word, CAB! I was introduced to 2 companies providing taxi services, namely SUNLIGHT & PUBLIC CAB. Proud to say, I tested both of the taxi service providers! Wahaha... I sat taxi 4times...twice pergi & twice balik ma...

The 1st driver was super bored! Talking to him was like talking to the wall!
The 2nd driver was better & I learnt 'What it's like as a taxi driver' from him.. How much need to pay for the taxi car...taxi permits...n bla bla bla....
The 3rd driver was okay also...suddenly talk to me about the bomb in Jakarta! & he later added he can't imagine if KL was to be bomb! The impact will be terrible as all buildings are closeby to each other...Haha...not like in Jakarta..that's what he told me...

The best TAXI DRIVER award went to the 4th driver. We talked alot and he even taught me of another way back to MLK from KPMG Tower. He even drew the map for me while he was driving me back to KPMG Tower. Then he explained in details where to turn...what signs to follow....what building@trademark you will c if you follow the right way...& everythin' he said was true and precise & I easily found my way back home Mlk below 1hour & 30minutes..Dont have to stuck in the 'stupid' jam on d way to Sg Besi toll...Haha...The taxi driver even commented I was lucky to have met him that day!!! Wahaha...& not forgetting he was the only chinese driver I encounter out of the 4 drivers I met in just 2 days! Wahaha...Thanks alot to him really...

This shows that not all taxi drivers in M'sia are 'bad ass' as reported in the mass media daily.. There's still friendly & helpful drivers around in M'sia.
Lastly, for me personally I am satisfied with PUBLIC CAB services instead of SUNLIGHT!!!

Thanks again to the "DUNNO WHAT's YOUR NAME BUT DAMN HELPFUL & FRIENDLY" taxi driver!!!! Million THANKS! Seriously!

King 0f Pop *M.J*



Hard to believe - this was Michael Jackson. He was born August 28, 1958 - one of 9 kids. His father reportedly nicknamed him "Big Nose".

Mike was born a cute African-American guy. "Normal", if you will, and very talented. Despite the current, sad stories about his lonely, sad childhood, Mike grew up surrounded by famous people and an adoring public. At age 5, Mike and his brothers were the amazing 'Jackson 5'. They played locally, then in New York and Philly. They were "discovered" by Gladys Knight and pianist Billy Taylor at the famous Apollo Theater in Harlem. By age 11, Mike was a Superstar. At age 13 he went solo and had his first #1 hit at 14 with "Ben" (a touching love song to a rat). Who knew he'd get addicted to plastic surgery, face accusations of child molestation and end up America's Most Famous Sideshow?

"There is no one in the world like MJ! Never has been! NEVER will be! We all know him in one way or another. In some way he has touched us, been the voice of one of our sweetest memories. And what a wonderful, genuine, compassionate, soft spoken GIANT so full of LOVE. He gave us LOVE, excitement, one of–a-kind moments in a mundane world. I can't believe he won't be with us here on earth anymore. But long from now, when we are all dust, he will still NEVER be forgotten....To the best that ever did it! You are loved, admired and respected forever." -By Alicia Keys-

"It is so hard to express in words what Michael Jackson meant to me. He was my friend. He was one of the reasons I got into the music business. He inspired me. He taught me. He laughed with me. He paved the way for African American artists to be played on MTV which was huge. My heart is full of grief for his family and his children and I pray that they take solace in the incredible legacy of his music and art."
-By Whitney Houston-

"This loss has deeply saddened me! It is with a heavy heart I composed this statement. May God cover you Michael. We all lift your name up in prayer. I pray for the entire JACKSON family particularly Michael's mother, children and all his fans that loved him so much. I would not be the artist, performer, and philanthropist I am today without the influence of Michael. I have great admiration and respect for Him and I'm so thankful I had the opportunity to meet and perform with such a great entertainer, who in so many ways, transcended the culture. He broke barriers, he changed radio formats! With music, he made it possible for people like Oprah Winfrey and Barack Obama to impact the mainstream world. His legacy is unparalleled. Michael Jackson will never be forgotten." -By Usher-

Jackson donated and raised millions of dollars for beneficial causes through his Heal the World Foundation, charity singles, and support of 39 charities. Other aspects of his personal life, including his often changing appearances and eccentric behavior, generated significant controversy that damaged his public image. Though he was accused of child sexual abuse in 1993, the criminal investigation was closed due to lack of evidence and Jackson was not charged. The singer had experienced health concerns since the early 1990s along with conflicting reports regarding the state of his finances since the late 1990s. Jackson married twice and fathered three children, actions which caused further controversy. In 2005, during People v. Jackson, Jackson was tried and acquitted of different sexual abuse allegations and several other charges.

One of the few artists to have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, his other achievements include multiple Guinness World Records—including one for "Most Successful Entertainer of All Time"—thirteen Grammy Awards, thirteen number one singles in his solo career, and the sale of 750 million records worldwide. At the time of his death, Jackson was preparing for This Is It, a series of 50 concerts that would have been held at The O2 arena in London at the beginning of July 13, 2009.

* With stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of physically complicated dance techniques, such as the robot & the moonwalk. His distinctive musical sound and vocal style influenced many hip hop, pop music and contemporary R&B artists across several generations. *


^ On June 25, 2009, Jackson collapsed at his rented mansion at 100 North Carolwood Drive in the Holmby Hills area of Los Angeles. Attempts at resuscitating him by his personal physician were unsuccessful. Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics received a 911 call at 12:22 p.m. (PDT), arriving three minutes and seventeen seconds later at Jackson's location. He was reportedly not breathing and CPR was performedResuscitation efforts continued both en route to the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, and for an hour further after arriving at approximately 1:13 p.m. (20:13 UTC). He was noted to have been in cardiac arrest by the paramedics who attended him at his house Jackson was pronounced dead at approximately 2:26 p.m. local time (21:26 UTC).Rumors and news of Jackson's death broke web records, triggering a cyberspace traffic jam and creating severe traffic spikes to websites such as Google, Facebook, Twitter and Wikipedia. Vigils were held by members of the general public after the death. ^

F0otie...


This summer football transfers belong to REAL MADRID!!! Sighh...Where do they get those MONEY but not surprisingly as their new president PEREZ net assets are worth 1.8billion... IN comes KAKA, IN comes CRISTIANO RONALDO...IN comes RAUL ALBIOL & IN comes KARIM BENZEMA!!! The list wont stop here as every single available TOP PLAYERS are currently linked to REAL MADRID. SIGH. Who's Next??? RIBERY? DAVID SILVA?? XABI ALONSO?? Madness!!! They have spent 221m on the 4players d..Sigh! IN come 4 players ...NONE out!!! How to fit all these players when u can only start with 11players n 5/7 on the bench with only 3subs to make during a match!!! =D

Man UTD main target has been stolen from NONe other than REAL MADRID. BENZEMA has choosen to join the GALACTICOS instead of joining forces with R0Oney, Berbatov & co in the REDS of MANCHESTER. Sigh. Instead IN comes ANTONIO VALENCIA, touted as RONALDO replacement! But can he SCOREs as many GOALS as RONALDO?? SIGH...every1 can guess the ANSWER here! IN comes MICHAEL OWEN!!! Either will he be the BARGAIN of the SEASON or ..... =b
Will RIBERY be stolen at THE VERY LAst MINUTE again By 'THE RICHEST CLUB' in D world NOW.. or MAYB not as RIBERY himself has declared that he is INTERESTED in joining the "FLOP-a-TICOS" rather than joining forces with ROoney, Berbatov & co at the RED DEVILS! I think the more likely UTD next SIGNING (might come true) is PATRICK VIERA!!!! wakaka
