Happy 1st birthday baby zouee!
So we have buffet birthday dinner in hee lai ton restaurant in puchong. Urmh eat until pau pau liao!
Must be a day of bumping in with familiar faces that I've not met for upteen years. Another one, simon lew, an ex colleague of mine in my ici years. Well he is on his own now dealing with auto parts for US mkt. Unfortunately since the crash biz is slow.
Bump into a couple of my dad's friends in canton-i
took me ahwile to recognize them
it's been a long while since I met them in sek 14 area. Now they shifted their office to puchong
Was hungry and having late lunch in Canton-i midvalley. They recommended this tea with a flower in it. Interesting fragrance tea.
I want to vent my frustration because everything is not going well today. Sure there may be good days and bad days, but today it was especially no good. First there was a speed trap on a stretch of road that never in my frequent usage encounter such a thing. Then there was some miscommunication about the location of the meeting to take place with the customer, the supplier wanted to have meeting in the factory but usually the customer boss is in the city and the distance is very far. But the boss said it is no problem to see them at the factory even though it would be inconvenient. The customer usually plays hardball with me and don’t give out information freely. But now with the supplier around and my big boss around, the information is now freely given. This would have been great unfortunately I informed that the customer usually don’t give out information. So now I lose face in front of my boss. In addition, pricing information about competitor is also not given out, but today it flows freely. In the end what am I to say? Damn if I do, Damn if I don’t. Needless to say the pricing quotation was out of the market price. I will be very fortunate to even get a few orders out from this account. Difficult to build up your reputation and it can be destroyed in an instant. Trying to be as frank and straight as possible, but ended up being chowder and meatballs.
Ya, now testing on bro-in-law and see how effective. Mlm is like that lor esp this is something new. Everybody health conscious.
Pu er tea is consider healthy. Like wine they taste better the longer is kept.

RON95 price up 5 sen to RM1.80
By NURBAITI HAMDAN
PETALING JAYA: The newly introduced RON95 fuel is now selling at RM1.80 – five sen higher than its previous price.
RON97 has been upgraded as a premium product and its price has increased from RM1.80 to RM2.05.
Domestic Trade, Co-operative and Consu-merism Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said the new prices were decided based on the current automatic pricing mechanism.
“Although the price is now 5 sen higher, the Government is still subsidising 33.81 sen per litre (of RON95) which is equivalent to RM304mil monthly,” he told reporters after the launch of Primax 95 by Petronas here yesterday.
Currently, the Government is subsidising RON97 for 42.72 sen per litre.
The cost for RON95 went up 102% from US$40.75 (RM143.79) per barrel to US$82.30 (RM290.40) in December last year and in August respectively.
“If there are any changes in global prices, we will revise our prices accordingly. It is up to the Economic Council to decide.
“RON95 also adheres to the EURO2M specification, which is less polluting,” said Ismail Sabri, adding that consumers would get quality petroleum products at subsidised prices.
With the new pricing, he said, RON92 has been phased out as its usage was only 5% of the total petrol sales in the country.
In April last year, the then Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Shahrir Samad said the Government was considering the use of petrol with higher research octane number (RON) to reduce fuel subsidies without hurting the lower-and-medium income groups.
Petrol Dealers Association of Malaysia president Datuk Hashim Othman said petrol stations could easily re-calibrate their pumps to adjust to the new prices.
He said petrol dealers would make a slight gain with the price increase as they had bought their current stock at the old price.
Yeah maybe one day
