New Marketing Strategy ?

Lunar new year is approaching ... year of Rat is going to be replaced by the year of Ox ...


In almost every supermarket or hypermarket at this point of time, you are able to notice that a contemporary marketing strategy is being used by beer company to promote their products.




Red vs Blue

The conventional Yakult is in RED packaging.


A new range of product is being introduced and it's called Yakult Ace Light which is in BLUE packaging. It's less sweet and good for those who are practising healthy diet.


Good stuff normally costs more.
A pack of 5 bottles of Yakult Ace costs RM3.89 while it's RM4.49 for Yakult Ace Light. About RM0.10 more per bottle.


Coincidentally, Man Utd who are in RED is going to face Chelsea who is in BLUE at Old Trafford this Sunday (Jan 11).


Would the final result be like the Yakult setting i.e. the BLUE packaging is much better than the RED packaging or the other way round ?
The answer will be known on early Monday morning, just wait and see laa ...
























大团圆

MY FM and Astro collaborate again to come up with a CD for the upcoming lunar year.


It's the most Bullish CNY production ...


and the most "Firely Hot" new year hit songs.

There are 10 songs inside the album.

I have listened to Song #1 and Song #5 and they have the ingredients to escalate your mood to the heaven .


I am still very much in love with Song #10 大团圆 as it's truly a classic from last year.

This CD album is sold at RM19.90 and it's original.

Let's go for original in support of local artists, and also to respect intellectual property plus ourselves for the coming Ox year !!

With the year of Ox, hopefully the economy can have a speedy recovery and may the bull re-energized the world again ..

Perhaps we can buy a Lois jeans to give more power and umphhh to the bull.



Goods sold are returnable at Giant !!



At Giant, we are able to return Non-Perishable goods e.g. shirts and pants within 7 days.

There might be people buying some new year clothing for the first few days of CNY and then return it afterward, in order to save some money during the current economic turmoil ;p

Interesting Photos from the Caribbean



The Caribbean is a region consisting of the Caribbean Sea which comprises more than 7,000 islands.

This guy might be Cari some Bean during a 'hot' breakaway.

My 2008

2008 is quite remarkable and memorable to me in these following aspects :

1) Managed to switch my job after so many years in my previous company. My current boss is very approachable and understanding, while my current job is really interesting and challenging.

2) Become a blogger and having lots of fun in blogging. I have learned and shared along the way.

3) Joined the Langkawi Beach Run in July and managed to complete the race of 21km with blood and sweat. Having a whole bunch of really nice colleagues around and had a good time along Pantai Cenang. I missed the burger ikan and burger udang ...

4) Get to know more about aquaculture from one of my close friend and learn ways to run a business in Malaysian context. Barramundi = Australia Siakap, just a Siakap anyway, and Siakap = Seabass ... :)

5) My 20th year as a supporter of Liverpool Football Club, thru thick and thin. Hope that they can win the league this year and I will make a trip to Anfield pretty soon.



In 2009, I have a few things that wish to accomplish and will share it out at the end of the year.

To my family members, may God blessed you all the way.
To my close friends, lets keep up the friendship and bring it to another level.
To my normal friends, lets make the relationship closer.
To my readers who might not be too many at this point of time, thanks for your support in 2008 and need your extended support in 2009.
Last but not least, to all my haters, kanne and fcuk off.

The best mate in our life

家人是我们人生最后的一道墙, 也是最稳固和最值得信任的墙.

他们会毫无私心的对我们付出与支持, 不是一般人所能媲美的.

朋友们, 可能有一天你会和我持有相同看法, 那时就在我的布落格留言吧 ...



Our close family members are like our last wall of defence, the strongest and yet the most trusted wall of defence.

Their undivided support during challenging period without expecting a return is hardly matched by any other ordinary people.

If one day you do agree with what I have said, then perhaps you can leave some words on my blog ... cheers (:





Vintage Bulgaria

Must try dishes at Vintage Bulgaria : Platter Bulgari for 2

Green tea ice cream

I went to Baskin Robbins at Queensbay Mall to try out its ice cream. The setup is really cosy and make me feel like home.


I tried its green tea ice cream a few years back and it was really sucks. To my surprise, its taste far better now, making great improvement (:

But the best green tea ice cream in town still belongs to Kirishima at Cititel and Nippon Yatai Mura at Pulau Tikus and QB Mall. Both are from the same owner, no wonder ...


Anyway, will bring them for the best pretty soon.
