Found out more interesting history when paying the last tribute to Dato Sri 陈火炎 last night at his last dwelling house. He has been a famous Chinese leader and his contribution to the society especially Penang and Chinese education had been priceless. Still remember a mere 13 yrs ago, when grandpa passed away, he was the very first & the only friend who came to see grandpa for the one last time before the "masuk coffin" ceremony. (i dunno what english word to call la ok). as per Chinese tradition, no one would come before the ceremony due to pantang-larangs, but he came and walked straight to where the body lied peacefully to pay his last tribute. (to be honest, during that time i didn't even dare to walk near alone despite he is my own ah gong). we (among the grandchildren) were told to address him as Hoay Eam Pek. I respected him for being a dear friend to my grandparents, so i had a vivid impression bout him ever since then. i accompanied grandma there yesterday eve

Ok, so let me reveal the answer to the purpose of the "music" button since many ppl come asked me and i had to answer one by one, yet some havent answered, i.e. bk chu. ~Get well soon bk :) As i entered the restroom, i gave it a try by pressing the button, i was wondering in my mind if it's going to be a luxury for the people to listen to music while they're doing their "biz"?? oh well, it came out flushing sound (which is already stated there) and yet so loud, then i became kelam kabut looking for a STOP button coz it was so loud, and i didn't know the purpose, wahhahah, like sampat ppl inside now, so i tried each and every other buttons that are available to try to STOP the loud flushing sound (coz i was afraid other surprise thing would come up then...) but to no avail...it continued to "fluuusssssshhhhhh....fluuuusssshhhhh......" so i thought maybe after i walk out, it would stop (since there is this sensor right beside)...well, after a whi

Didn't believe the company has its own air shuttle to carry only its own employees, until i booked it online and now i came to sit on it on my own. It's a air shuttle service that brings Intel employees from/to few of the main sites in US, i.e. San Jose, Folsom, Chandler. They fly everyday, and it's FULL almost all of the time! Okay...so of course it departs from a private airport too. i travelled from Chandler to Folsom, the Matherfield Airport. The procedure of taking this plane is very simple. You just need to arrive at the airport 10-15 mins earlier, show your badge, scan and go in. They have a counter to collect your luggages too, good part is, no matter how big, how many, they're all accepted, lol. Then you'll be given a boarding pass :) They serve light refreshments too. The feeling of travelling with this plane is different, with everybody from the same company, wearing the badge as the pass to get on board like a VIP, :P While waiting to be boarded, i was o

It was certainly a good finding for me and a good laugh during the whole conversation with kiyoshi bout the toilet bowl and the button functions. the first time i used this high-tech toilet bowl was in Le Meridien Hotel KL, i was impressed with what it can do. the 2nd time i used it was in Ding Tai Fung Restaurant Taiwan, i was impressed by the "comfortness" it offered and the warm seat. my 3rd time was in Kiyoshi's house Japan, i was totally impressed by the advance of this country that they are having this in a normal household. 所谓，一山还比一山高。Here, i got to take the world most advanced train (our MRT), which it offers wifi on the train. ok, back to toilet story. can you tell what's the function of that "music" button? :)

i have become oor lang d!! :D will consider to buy sun tan oil and make it all even? should i? ;)
