  • 名字

    认识人家的开场白通常是礼貌的问候及知晓对方的名字.
    名字是一个人的个性化符号,你的名字够特别吗?
    由于加入新公司,所以一切得从最基本的开始,同事都纷纷问起我的名字.
    通常的反映是: 你也是这个名字,我好几个朋友也是一样哦!

    对这些回答我已习惯了因我自忍自己的名字非常普遍.
    只要你随意在街上喊我的名字,应该会有好几个人转身回应你…

    等到人家再接着问我的名字是不是这样又那样写?
    一如我的了解,没人会告诉我正确的名字,就算猜测好几回也没中..正常不过!
    到我告诉他们是这么写,反映又会是:你的名字好特别,原来这个字是这么念.

    我妈为了方便及避免罚写时会搞到哭哭啼啼,所以給了个说时普遍,写时特别的名字 –> 卉伶
    就连英文也是汉语拼音所组成–> huiLing
    哈哈…好普通吧?
    好多人都会想过更改名字,但这念头从没闪过我脑海,你呢?

  • Malaysian Income Analysis

    A forwarded email, which makes sense to me 🙂 After thinking about it, maybe I move back to Alor Setar better 😀

    I’ll try to do some calculations here. In Malaysia the average family income is RM3000 (Father works, mother doesnt). I understand there are a lot of families whose income don’t reach RM3000, but, to make things simple, lets take RM3000 as the figure. ok la right?

    Okay, let’s start rolling with a family which has Papa, Mama, 1 daughter and 1 son. ngam ngam..

    Calculation starts…

    Electricity and water bil RM100 (no aircond, no home theatre, no water heater k?)
    Telekom and Handphone bil RM100 (cannot make a lot of calls one you know? NO Streamyx also)
    Meal for the whole happy family RM775 (3 meals on RM25/day, RM25 for 4 persons????)
    Papa makan/teh tarik during working hours RM155 (RM5/day, RM5 can eat what?)
    Car repayment RM400 (a proton saga aeroback, 7 years repayment)
    Petrol RM500 (Living in City, Jam)
    Tol RM100 (The LDP, Sprint, Cheras Penchala link and etc)
    Insurance RM450
    House repayment RM750 (NOT really a HOUSE u know? 750sqt Apartment only!!)
    Tuition RM80 (got that cheap meh?? No, I don’t think so)
    Older children pocket money @ school RM20 (RM1/day, eat bread??)
    School fees RM30 (enough ah??)
    Younger children milk powder RM50 (cannot have the DHA, BHA, PHA one, expensive)
    Miscellaneous RM100 (shampoo, rice, sauce, toilet paper)

    oh wait!!! I have to stop here, so… No Astro, no movie @ cinema, no DVD, no CD, no online, cannot KFC, cannot Mc Donald, cannot go Park walk during weekend(petrol expensive), no chit chat on phone with grandparents, and etc…

    Let’s use a calculator to total up… WALAO EI.. Shit! RM3610 already.. -RM610… How to survive laa tuan-tuan dan puan-puan sekalian??? Our Deputy Prime Minister ask us to change lifestyle? How to change? Don’t eat? Don’t work? Don’t send children to school and study? Besides that, I believe in Malaysia population, there are millions of Rakyat Malaysia which still don’t earn RM3000/month!!!

    What is this? Ini lah Malaysia Boleh.. Sorry.. it should be Malaysians Boleh, because we’re still alive and kicking!

  • KLCC Protest II Photos

    There were over a hundred personnel, present at KLCC at about 1.30pm today, from the Malaysian Federal Reserves Unit (FRU), blue-uniformed and plain-clothes policemen. They were anticipating a demonstration from unhappy Malaysians taking to the streets in protest against the recent 30 sen hike in petrol prices.

    KLCC security guards also got in the act when they started ushering-in people/shoppers, both local and foreign, who were standing outside the mall trying to figure out what was going on.

    The guards and policemen told people to go into the complex immediately, before they closed/locked the doors/main entrance. The cops claimed that they couldn’t ensure the people’s safety if the ‘law enforcers’ started retaliating against the protestors.

    Soon after, at about 2.30pm the demonstrators, comprising of primarily members/supporters of opposition parties Keadilan (PKR), PAS (Islamic party), PSM (Socialists) and the Democratic Action Party (DAP).

    The protesters, about 2000, walked towards KLCC from Hotel Nikko carrying party flags, banners and posters. They chanted slogans such as “Hidup rakyat, minyak naik rakyat susah” (Citizens suffer when oil price increases).

    Politicians from the various parties took turns to speak through a loud-speaker, which was unfortunately not loud enough, to the crowd while questioning the rational of the price hike and the government on what has happened to money collected from oil exports from the country.

    Their speeches were often drowned out by a police helicopter flying over the crowd and around KLCC, sometimes flying a low as about a couple of hundred feet above the crowd. Although the copter was intimidating, loud and menacing, the protesters seemed undeterred by it.

    The protest lasted for over an hour and a majority of the demonstrators dispersed peacefully. However it has been reported that some protesters continued their march to Jalan Sultan Ismail where they were doused by FRU water cannons. There were no apparent arrests.

  • Where is rakyat RM0.33 Billion?

    It has been 2 weeks after the petrol price hike on 27th February. So now the question is where is the RM0.33 billion? You may ask what is the RM0.33 billion.

    Our government said subsidy and tax exemption borne by the government this year alone – from January to February 2006 – was RM1.19 billion and RM1.44 billion respectively. So after 2weeks, which mean 1/4 of the month(It should be 2/4 of the month, but no different). 1/4 of the RM1.44 billion would be RM0.33 billion, so where is the RM0.33 billion goes?

    Do you guys see any improvement on the public transport? OR any action taken by our government to Rakyat Malaysia? I only see my petrol and food become more expensive.

    There will be a massive protest going on today 2pm in KLCC. If you are there, write a big board and ask where is the first RM0.33 billion now. 😉
