Be a triad member to get protection
Today’s Star paper talked about how the Underworld gang is now recruiting members especially teenagers through Facebook. This is quite an alarming story for parents with teenagers, since nearly all of these kids are on Facebook. Most of the time, these gangs entice kids with the promise of protection, when they need help against someone who’s bugging them etc. Kids being kids might find this kind of connection to a gang dangerously exhilarating. Well, not so. I am so reminded by a movie I watched, called Sin Nombre. In this movie, a teenage boy is trying to initiate an even younger boy, like maybe only 10 years old, into his…

A couple of years ago, I wrote about Kuching Kolomee in Kajang. Unfortunately, business was not awesome so the guy moved to Kuchai Lama in KL to continue his business.

I cannot accept that I have to work on that file for hours again! Then I realised, it’s…

Gossip Girl
Today I found out somebody gossiped about me. I do not know who it is, but someone accused me of using a bad word on them that I can never imagine ever using on anyone. At work, there are a few people that I sometimes have to teach things to. When teaching new things, it can get really frustrating when they can’t grasp what I’m trying to teach, so I admit a few times I had not held back my honest remarks and came across as too harsh. Nevertheless I knew for sure I had not gone to the extreme of using a word so demeaning as that, though admittedly…
