It was a very hectic schedule for me that Sunday on the 22nd June 2008. First I had an amateur photoshoot with a bunch of friends in Bagan Lalang. Then I had to rush back home in time for my colleague’s wedding dinner in Hotel Maya, Kuala Lumpur. Bernard was my driver that night, that […]

This is my first experience here as a Toyota owner, servicing my Altis. I was prepared for a huge bill. For one thing, I do not have a complete service record for this car, so all other details of the record remain vague. I have called 2 weeks earlier to book an appointment and the […]
3rd time charmed!
Posted: 18th June 2008 by Jacky Yong in Computers, Current AffairsTags: Firefox, Mozilla
That’s how I would describe Firefox 3, the latest incarnation of the highly successful browser these days. I have fulfilled my pledge to download Firefox 3 and be part of the Guinness World Record attempt for the highest number of downloads in 24 hours. I downloaded and installed it successfully at 3:25 am, +8 GMT. […]

I know it’s kinda late to be talking about a Chinese New Year that has passed for almost half a year. But I thought I’d share the pictures out, since I’m compiling all the pictures now anyway. Of course, no celebration is complete without the inclusion of my family members. So here again I show […]

Unless you have been living in a remote jungle forest of Borneo without any internet connection or TV whatsoever, you would have known by now how much petrol price has risen overnight. I quickly went to refuel both my cars. I consider myself lucky. I got refueled in less than an hour for each cars. […]
Fuel Subsidy for Malaysian with Singaporean PR
Posted: 3rd June 2008 by Jacky Yong in Current AffairsTags: fuel subsidy, Singapore
The recent announcement of the new fuel subsidy structure is really taking everybody by storm. The most noticeable move is by prohibiting all vehicles from Thailand from fueling here. That took effect yesterday. The Singaporeans are still refueling here pending further announcement. The issue now here is: should Malaysians with Singaporean registered cars be allowed […]
I hate to admit it, but I have a very naughty little girl. And I’m proud of it! 😀 I’m talking about Yan Yan, the elder mischievous monkey. She started terrorizing the house the moment she is mobile. One of the earliest things she destroyed was the calendar that was hung very low.
