Business Trip in Kuala Lumpur

We saved a lot of money using this Elite membership that offers a 50% discount stay in Mandarin Oriental room with up to 3 vouchers of upgrade, 2 free bottles of red or white wine, a free buffet dinner for 4 at Mosaic Restaurant, 50% voucher for a 1 kg cake (choices include green citrus, pink lady, chocolate, cheese and durian cheesecake - that is the most popular)

Here, in this video, you can see the cozy ambience of the room with double views of the Petronas twin towers and a partial view of the gardens in KLCC. We celebrated our anniversary of being together since 2004, till now. A feat that is not easy to accomplish, what more with work commitments and being available to type round the clock at times.

Well, there are pros and cons. Sometimes you have to bear with the tantrums too. So, it is not all rosy as you might think working in a home office with your spouse who is your boss too. When it comes to work, there is No Grace and strictly commitment to get the job done in a timely manner. Clients can be demanding too, expecting the quotation immediately.

Hence it is good to take a breather from all these stress of life. Anyway, the above is a working trip and I took the rate opportunity to shoot this video for posterity. We were away from the room most of the time, travelling to clients' sites and attending an interview. Okay, I won't divulge further and will take a break here. Good night.

2016 Christmas Performance on Superstar Libra

We were on board Genting's SuperStar Libra cruise that no longer berth here in Penang's Swettenham Pier. It used to be a twice weekly cruise from Penang to the International High Seas for the gamblers to play their favorite games, whatever they are, and try their lady luck at winning something, hopefully. Those were the days of leisure and fun, while working hard in a home office. Well, as you can see from the video, it was near Christmas way back in 2016 and we were lucky to get a chance at getting on board this short cruise for a night. The performance was about 16 seconds, so I appreciate if you watch to the end on this lively song and dance. Now as I look back at my old videos, I can reminiscence the good times I had with my spouse and best friend. I hope my future videos will entertain with more songs, performances, and such. In the meantime, Enjoy the show!

Going to Bandung, Indonesia next Tuesday

Next week, I will be going to Bandung for 4 days 3 nights with my second sister working in Suchou, China as the Head of the Business English Department. I have partially sponsored her trip there and the total amount is RM4,079 including 2% credit card charges of additional RM80! Most likely we will go to factory outlet for shopping cheaper things like clothes, bags, etc. My initial plan was to go to Bali but my second sister wanted to do her factory outlet shopping in Bandung, so there was the change in plan. Anyway, Bali is not too attractive to me at there are several visits to Indian temples and to see monkey dance! This is not what I had in mind, so Bandung is a better choice. We will stay in a 4 star Aston Braga Hotel & Residence which includes tours like 6 hours half day shopping tour in Cihampelas and 12 hours tour the next day to Mount Tangkuban Perahu, Sariater Hot Spring, Shopping Rumah Mode, Heritage, Summit, Danar Hadi Batik and ITC Pasarbaru.
