INCREASE ON TRANSPORTATION

Starting from 1st August 2009, all the land transport fees will increase and it applies to all over Malaysia. Bus, taxi including school bus but exclude KTM, Monorail and LRT. All those vehicles that uses petrol to run will be increased starting from 1st August 2009.


Do you think this is fair and equal to all the citizens? Fair increases, does this really solve the problem among the drivers and satisfied them? Even it really works out among them but how about the passengers? How they gona survive with just a little increase that we see but actually could be much when we calculate it.
Saying that it increase by 20 cents for taxi. Normally we start from RM 2 and now will be RM 2.20. One way will increase by 2o cents and another return will cost 40 cents in total. One day uses 40 cents extra. One week will use RM 2.80 extra and people who drive can have that money to pay one way tol already. That's only for a week, if a month total extra will be RM2.80 x 4 = RM 11.20 . You might think that is not much but for a student or low income employee they can survive for at least one day for their meal.


I know I might sounds stingy and materialistic in money but as a student I have to learn to use my money wisely because I had fix amount of expenses every month. I know it might be a way to push up economy and strategic to deal with economic downturn that we are facing now but I could only say it can't satisfied all the parties! There is always one who get benefit and the other one lost.

Angels & Demons

This is another great production after DaVinci Code. This is greater, excited and more knowledgeable movie. This movie is more to Christian history and all the ceremony and nevertheless famous place that Christian treat as honourable. I have nothing much to comment on this movie as I think from the beginning till the end the story was quite good. The flow is indeed smooth and connected. I did enjoy the time Tom Hanks search for clue to find the candidate popes where they were hide and the place they will get killed. There is so much excitement in it. My feeling was just like a roller coaster going ups and downs without knowing what would it be the next moment. I could only give two thumbs up for it. Don't believe what I said? Watch it yourself and you will know what I meant.

Photography

Recently, I am up to more nature photography. Those who know me well knows that I am always girl with my babe (camera) around. Non stop taking food places and something which is akward and new to my eyes. Nowadays I find out that the view out from my balcony and window is so tentative and fascinating that I did not realise before. Here are some shot that I had taken and I hope for some comment for my improvement in future! SUNSET FROM WINDOW VIEW For this picture, I take in two ways. a wish for brighter sky but somehow when I get the color of sky I want the light out from the blue cloud could not be seen clearly. Only when I set it to darker mode then the light out of the cloud could be emphasize out. LIGHT, SIGN OF BETTER DAY

YOU TIAO & JOHN KING TART

YOU TIAO is what we called in Chinese and ' YAO ZA GUAI ' is what Cantonese named it and this food is said to be origin from Cantonese people. This is one of the high demand food in Pavilion. It is simple, non-oily and reasonable in price. Their freshly made Tau Foo Far taste great and it is so smooth and doesn't have much of the bean taste which make people hardly love to eat them..... You Tiao - It is so crispy to eat just like that or you wanted to eat with their plain porridge would also be great because the combination of both makes perfect!!! Porridge - Their porridge is not so hardened or over watery. I guess that's the perfect way to describe. It is just alright and you can hardly see the rice but instead it is little sticky which a porridge should have.... After having that, my friend continuing exploring other food in the section. We go for the tart that had been very popular and keep mentioning by those who had ever had them. The legendary tart, ...
