You know one day, I was abit 'kepo' to look around my company's intranet. All the employees to see who is on which department ;-)). But to my surprise, it my own photo that looks like !@#$%^&*(). Need to act fast, I call up IT to get my photo changed into ....something NICER...

Politicians ... Famous!!!
Recently there were bloggers create some waves for the government members. It took me awhile to think if our personal views are getting more handicapped more & more each day.
Never mind, cut it short! That day when I was back to my hometown, I saw this billboard really inspires me to think of something. Our leaders are famous! It can be seen everywhere around town. If you observed further, it's Visit Malaysia Year 2007. Hey hey... visit Malaysia.. visit our leaders too...
Some comment with the billboard designer, I hope next time, the designer tender for Government Billboards, please give abit of space. Never mind with the size, it can be smaller. It won't do any harm. Now you see, you are putting pictures on the day of Merdeka of Tunku on the left, then you are running of space.
Well for case in China, Chairman Mao photo can be seen even inside taxis.
Ok, not taking to long to introduce. This place is called Mengkuang. I heard it's part of PM Badawi hometown. Nearby are plenty of Malay Villages.
So as it's part of the leisure for the people here.. walk & jog.

Test Drive Caldina : Family Sports Wagon
On my trip back to Kuching, it was irresistable for another walk-in and out phenomena again. This time is no jokes. Guess what, this time is my favourite road machine. The usual badge I am familiar with Toyota but this time is none other than Caldina GT4. Yeah!
As up today, it's the my favourite of all. It has everything needed. Space & Power. Sporty Stationwagon which I don't mind putting my baby trolley & rocker dad going for speed on the weekend.
Somehow this machine just have minor draw back after my test drive.
One, the turbo lag is unbelievable. When I was doing the flooring, the power only comes in when the rpm reaches 4000. So for normally driving in Kuching, it isn't going to optimise the engine at all.
Two, I have the bad feeling with the brakes. For 240 bhp machine, all wheel drive system, it's got to be a strong braking power. Caldina is not showing anything convincing.
Anyway, the Re Cond price still attractive. For the price of Honda Civic 2.0 Vtec ~ 135K. You can get a car that is totally from another category. At least, it is rated in PS2 GT4.
