Permit for Camping At the Beach

to all the people who loves camping at east coast, take note. you must get a permit before you can go camping at the beaches like east coast. in 15th april, NParks whose responsible for all this, decided that people who wants to camp at the beach, must get a permit at all AXS machines, even on weekends where usually, only weekdays camping need permits. they wanna control this is because of increase of camping people on the beaches. and usually the environment, like the grass, the trees, will be affected if its not controlled.

Palawan Beach Is Dirty

singapore is going to host the olympic youth games next year. but they are gonna be extra careful about the age of the athletes applicable as youth. in China, tests on nearly 13,000 athletes, 3000 fake their age so that they can still compete in the youth level competition.
alamak, first, cardboard buns, then melamine, now adult athletes in youth competitions?!

i remembered, Palawan Beach at Sentosa used to be very clean, no black spots, no seaweeds, back in 2004. but now, its dirty. my friend told me that after rinsing herself in the sea at Palawan, went back home, she realised her shorts whad black spots.

research shows that at age 27, your brain starts to decline. research tests on brain speed, reasoning and visual puzzle-solving ability and found out that the highst peak for your brain is 22 while by 27 it will marks the start of declining. so you guys, if you're still 22, you better learn as much as you can and as much as you want

senior sales manager

last week, a nice dressed up man came to my office. he wanted to promote his hotel at the sim lim area there, sorry can't tell you which hotel. he told me if any of our foreign cutomers come to singapore, why not get our customers the hotel that is not just affordable, S$150 and above, but is near to bugis area, so he can enjoy shopping also.
well basically he's a salesman trying to promote his 3.5 star hotel. when he gave his name card, my manager look at his title and was surprise. he's a senior sales manager! now that sounds quite big. but what he's doing going from unit offices to unit offices at our JTC factory promoting his products, is more like a normal young salesman job.
that's how bad the recession is.

Travel Agencies Need More Malaysia Destinations






whenever my dad came to me while i was surfing the net, he wil ask me to check some of the local malay travel agencies' website to check out any good and cheap destination they're having. basically my dad wanna check out some travelling offers to any parts of peninsular malaysia. cos most of the time we usually check it out in the newspaper berita harian. usual ones like 2days 1night to KL is a norm and since we've been there too many times, we wanna look at something new like terengganu, penang, kedah, perak and of course like redang or tioman. never been to these places before yo.
problem was these malay travel agencies either do not have a website or their website are only open for bigger destinations like thailand, china, dubai, and of course the normal haji and umrah.
its time for these travel agencies to have more destinations to malaysia. near, and i'm sure cheap. cos during the recession times, people wanna relax their mind and go for a holiday. and it'll be great if the malay travel agencies can have more to choose to go to peninsular malaysia.

most to most, 2days 1night at east coast chalet is fine with me lah.

anyway, the news came out that 39 local travel agencies closed down between january and february 2009. they said that local travel agencies should cater for more nearer destinations and thus the cost will be cheaper.
good to hear that none of the 39 local companies are malay travel agencies.
selagi lagu "bulan haji~!!!! sudah tiba lagi!!!" dimainkan di radio warna pada waktu2 maghrib, selagi tulah pelancongan untuk orang melayu takkan jatuh.

Angry At Work Is Good

facebook is too messy. unlike friendster. but now, reports in BBC said that facebook is facing problems trying to get hold on to viruses, that mostly tries to get your personal profiles and even your added friends profiles.

basically its more of the applications that you can use in facebook. the virus will be active if you install an application to your facebook.
but not to worry cos facebook claims that they have done alot of work to keep the site safe.

do you know its good to get angry when at work? of course not angry until you explodes, no no. angry but controllable.
because when you are angry at something that you don't like, you have to say it out what needs to be corrected. you can't just keep quiet and just think positive and hope all will be fine.
you will die one!

you have to be assertive and able to stand your ground, while remaining respectful. thats how you get angry at work.
