If there is such a term as ‘speed reading’ or ‘speed dating’, I guess my trip to Chennai is speed touring in the finest. I have written two articles for my two days visit. Click onto the link below to view.

After my rather unexpected encounter with the Malaysian Custom, my next challenge was to locate “PJ Hilton”. I had no clue how exactly to get there. It’s been donkey years since I worked in Petaling Jaya and how the whole place has changed! There are new flyovers, streets turned one-way, new shops spawned from nowhere, [...]

The roads are hardly recognizable, with buildings and structures all crumble into blocks of [...]

On top of that, it is a film with Keira Knightley, a film nominated for the Golden Globe Awards, and a film perhaps yet to be shown in [...]

I need more RAM for my brain. Many friends of mine think that I have lots of friends in Hong Kong but the fact is, before I left the place at the age of 17, I lived my life more or less like a hermit. This morning, I was just going through the list in [...]

Last night Cynthia issued a rare non-negotiation order to take her to the Cathedral for a morning Christmas Mass. Going to church is something I feel lazy to do especially when it is yet another night of less than 6 hours of sleep. However, it is also something I feel good after I have received [...]
