“If you do build a great experience, customers tell each other about that. Word...”
– It’s a privilege for me to be able to work in a company that promotes learning but more importantly, I’m proud that my company also values customer service. At the end of the day, every company whether profit or non-profit exists to serve the needs and wants of customers. No company...

Complexities of relationships... algebra is not...
So if A meets B and falls in like, and perhaps then love and then commitment, is it:
1. A + B = AB
2. A + B = (AB + A) + (AB + B)
3. A + B = C - (A + B)
4. A + B = A
5. A + B = a + b
6. A + B = $&@!?
7. A + B = -(AB)
8. A + B = (A - $) + (B + $)
9. A + B = AB + AC + AD + AE
10. A + B = AB + a + b
Whadda think? Any others?

Thinking of Korean food? Give Koryo Won in KLCC a miss, you can do better elsewhere unless you don’t mind junk service and grumpy staff.

A family get-together on Christmas eve. Hey, that’s a frog in the tree!
Good ideas are not borne out of ignorance; so keep on expanding what you know and when disparate bits come together, sparks will fly!

I’d happily sit thru any weird Cornish dances just to listen to the theme from Harry Potter played, and it was worth it. Good job #MPYO!

All hotel managers should respond to guest reviews - good job GM of Sari Pan Pacific, Jakarta!
They say don’t judge a book by it’s cover but the best I can do is remind myself to at least read the preface.

My food diary from a week-long escapade in Indonesia. Burp.
Domain name scams are a nuisance (though they can...
Domain name scams are getting ridiculous but the most recent one saying that the company should offer an ‘apology’ is downright ludicrous… can’t people find a decent way to earn a living?
Received today (and btw, I am NOT the CEO):

Recounting my top 5 nightmares this Halloween! BOO!
Nothing’s more appropriate than Halloween on a Monday… and looking out of the window seeing KL’s rush hour traffic post-rain? SCARY! sigh…
Thank goodness it’s Friday… things were getting way too interesting at work…
On the same day, Star online has ‘Business as usual in Bangkok’ and ‘Panic in Bangkok’ as headlines for two stories… conflicted much?
Microsoft Outlook’s search function is simply terrible…
It amazes me how much Malaysia has progressed and yet still has one of the slowest Internet lines in the region and possibly the worst taxis as well. And let’s not get started on this backward path to religious fundamentalism.
