What a Beautiful City!






This City is called "Gaza".
Pictures were sent from a customer in Malaysia!
Fever

It happens at the Bar

Drunken chap gets up from the bar and heads for the

bathroom. A few minutes later, aloud, blood curdling

scream is heard from the bathroom.

A few minutes afterthat, another loud scream reverberates through the bar.

The bartender goes into the bathroom to investigate why the

drunk is screaming. 'What's all the screaming about in there?

You're scaring the customers!

''I'm just sitting here on the stall and every time I try to flush, something comes up and

squeezes the hell out of my testicles.

With that, the bartender opens the door, looks in and says.

'You idiot! .....You're sitting on the mop bucket!'

Bob Works Hard

Bob works hard at the office but spends two nights each week bowling, and plays golf every Saturday.

His wife thinks he's pushing himself too hard, so for his birthday she takes him to a local strip club.


The doorman at the club greets them and says, 'Hey, Bob! How ya doin?'
His wife is puzzled and asks if he's been to this club before. '
Oh no,' says Bob. 'He's in my bowling league.

When they are seated, a waitress asks Bob if he'd like his usual and brings over a Budweiser.
His wife is becoming increasingly uncomfortable and says, 'How did she know that you drink Budweiser?''I recognize her, she's the waitress from the golf club.
I always have a Bud at the end of the 1st nine, honey.'

A stripper then comes over to their table, throws her arms around Bob, starts to rub herself all over him and says,'Hi Bobby. Want your usual table dance, big boy?'

Bob's wife, now furious, grabs her purse and storms out of the club.Bob follows and spots her getting into a cab.Before she can slam the door, he jumps in beside her.

Bob tries desperately to explain how the stripper must have mistaken him for someone else, but his wife is having none of it. She is screaming at him at the top of her lungs, calling him every 4 letter word in the book.

The cabby turns around and says,'Geez Bob, you picked up a real bitch this time.


'Bob's funeral will be on Friday.

Getting Through Customs

A distinguished young lady on a flight from Hong Kong to Madagascar asked the Priest beside her, "Father, may I ask a favour?"

"Of course child What may I do for you?"

"Well, I bought an expensive woman's electronic hair dryer for my mothers birthday that is unopened and well over the Customs limits, and I'm afraid they'll confiscate it.
Is there any way you could carry it through customs for me? Under your robes perhaps?"

"I would love to help you, dear, but I must warn you: I will not lie."
"With your honest face, Father, no one will question you."

When they got to Customs, she let the priest go ahead of her.
The official asked, "Father, do you have anything to declare?"
"From the top of my head down to my waist, I have nothing to declare."

The official thought this answer strange, so asked, "And what do you have to declare from your waist to the floor?"

"I have a marvelous instrument designed to be used on a woman, but which is, to date, unused."

Words Woman Use

Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are wrong and you need to shut up.

Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means an hour.

Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.


Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It! Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing

That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're welcome.

Thanks a lot: sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome' .or that will bring on a 'whatever'.

Whatever: Is a woman's way of saying &*#&* YOU!

Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself.

When she Keep quiet : the most dangerous word ever told…this is calm before tempest, you collar must have someone lipstick mark she found it… you had better prepared an good answer!

You’d better Choose for me: this happen in order in restaurant, please do not quote the wrong food, you have to memorize her favourite dishes forever. This is a test, if wrong guess will follow by a “Whatever!”

Yes, I do: don’t believe it, it is a crap!

No, I don’t have: means she has!

Yes, I have: again it is a test, see you want to take out your last penny out or not, if you want to touch her money, you will be followed by another “whatever!”

Let me pay for it: If you let her does it, then probably she will not see you anymore!

Doctor Never Laugh


Before the examination, Siu Ming asked the doctor if they ever laughed
at their patients' problems.


The Doctor replied 'Of course I won't laugh, I'm a professional. In over 40 years I have been here in St. Margret hospital, I've never laughed at a patient.


' Okay then,' Siu Ming said, and proceeded to drop his trousers,
revealing the tiniest 'Little Dick' the doctor had ever seen.


It couldn't have been bigger than the size of a "Virginia Slim" Cigarette. one Quarter in length of the cigarette!


Unable to control himself, the doctor started giggling, then fell laughing
hysterically to the floor. 3 minutes later he was able to struggle to his feet and regain his composure.


I'm so sorry,' said the doctor. 'I really am. I don't know what came over me. On my honour as a doctor and a gentleman, I promise it won't happen again!!


Now, what seems to be the problem?'


'It's swollen,' Siu Ming replied...

Film Battery




Film Battery is widely used on certain prototype VISA card, IC card that has certain LED display, buzzer and an CPU for data aquisition and retrival. Label type RFID with long distance detection. The Battery has to be power ful, rechargebale or non rechargable, thin.


This is one of the type made by NEC Organic radical Battery!


NEC Corp enabled an organic radical battery to be repeatedly charged/discharged 10,000 times or more with one second or shorter pulse discharge while enhancing its power density.



By utilizing a printing technology and a technique to evenly disperse electrode ink, the company increased the uniformities of the organic radical material and the carbon fiber, thereby reducing the internal resistance of the positive electrode of the organic radical battery. As a result, the power density of the battery was increased to 5,000W/L, which is three times as high as that of the company's existing organic radical battery.



Specifically, when using a coin-sized organic radical battery with a thickness of 1mm or less, it is possible to discharge with a high current of 1A, achieve a high power output of 2W and repeatedly charge/discharge 10,000 times or more with a current of 100mA.


An organic radical battery is a secondary battery that stores electricity utilizing the oxidation-reduction reaction of stable radical. The battery was first announced by NEC in 2001. It utilizes the oxidation-reduction reaction of a substance called "radical," which has unpaired electrons in the outermost shell of the electron orbit.


The battery allows high-speed charging/discharging because the reaction proceeds at a high speed. Also, a gel-type flexible electrode can be created by infiltrating an electrolytic solution into a composite positive electrode consisting of an organic radical compound and a carbon fiber.


Targeting the power sources for next-generation terminals such as highly-functional IC cards, electronic paper and wearable devices, NEC intends to improve the usability of the battery by combining it with contactless charging technology, etc.


The new battery is scheduled for display at the International Nanotechnology Exhibition and Conference (nano tech 2009), which runs from Feb 18 to 20, 2009, at Tokyo Big Sight.

Enhance your strength and Manage your weakness

This is a tradition way to ask your speer to tell him his weaknesses and do all the best to improve them! but some how this is tedious and may not get the desired result.

Some how we should stay away from your weakness and emphasis on your strength. It is natural to ask a man of 5 feet 2 to peform board diving and is a dump encourage to ask him to go for 100M Free style swimming as he is too short for that, On the other hand he is 100% built for for board diving.

Tiger Woods os not as good as his grass on his sand performance, he knows and keep his time for grass and it is not worth to spend time on sand...

It is a time wasting for me to learn Mandarin as my tongue is not able to twist and it is better to ask me to speed Japanese or Thai .... and I have spent 4 years learning Japanese. More than 20 years picking up Thai, but I did no spend much time in real learning.

So my key points are , do not spend time on your weakness and rather aimming on your strength improvement, that will be more fruitful!

Mose and Hercules for Linn LP12


Recommened by Friend and genius of Hong Kong. An Inventor the Motor control for Linn LP12.
I got one full set of Mose and Hercules from him and immediate work for the upgrade on my Linn.


Orgnal Linn Lingo Power supply and motor controller is too expensive for me to afford, used one is almost HKD9,000.00


This is much cheaper to own and immediately wanted to know the result. Actually I used one LP and two NOS vacuum to trade with Edmund!


This morning, I did test for quite a few records, the result is positive:
more separation between low, mid an high audio frequency, means a clearer presenation of the LP music. More quiet than befor means, that the depth of the music is increased.
And we can play wiht my super power cable now...more fun will come!
I can also play my 45 RPM collection LPs with a touch of the button now and it was a nightmare before the upgrade.

Highly recommend for the Linn LP12 lovers!
The Mose and hercules is a Five Star Audio equipment... Good value for money!

A Real Fire Drill

In a large multinational company..............A fire alarm rang at 4 PM in a large headquarters office when almost all employees were in office (approx 1,000).


As usual the entire office was evacuated within 3 mins & all employees gathered outside the office in the designated car park area waiting for further announcement.


The Adminstrative Officer Ashole Lim in charge made the following announcement: "Dear employees - with sincere regret I have been asked to announce that for many of you it will be your last evacuation drill. Due to the recession, the company is laying off almost 20% of our employees. So when this announcement finishes, I ask all of you to move back into the building and if your swipe card does not work then it means you have been laid off in which case you will not be allowed inside and all your belongings will be deliverred to you by tomorrow.


The Company has used this approach as we didn't want to fill up the email box with lay-off mails and all sort of junk good bye mails in thousands, and also to avoid any fight inside the office and the consequent security issue for all senior managers. Hope you have had a rewarding career with us and all the best ahead.


Please move back in & try your luck".

Motolora Sparrow


Motorola Sparrow was conceived to provide retail stores with a mobile point of sale device to solve increased service demands from consumers while decentralizing the check out point, i.e.


pay for it and get out as fast as you can. It combines a scanner, point of sale (POS) system, RFID, communication and credit card reading capabilities into one mobile device.

There are a few devices that offer MPOS (mobile point of sale) in the marketplace but none are consumer facing nor appropriate for front-end retail environments. Existing products are often rugged and obtrusive.


If you’ve ever been to an Apple store, you know what I’m talking about. They often take away from the environment and make the entire retail experience unpleasant.

Both the front and back of the Sparrow are equipped with touch sensitive areas, supposedly making it easier to navigate and use. The entire unit can hang from a lanyard.

This isn’t a new idea but definitely a huge improvement. Many high-tech electronic stores now equip their employees with mobile point of sale devices but design studio Aruliden definitely has an eye for form and function. I’d love to see it integrated into retail environments.

Osram LEDs for Mustang






Introduced at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the new Ford Mustang boasts the latest lighting technology by OSRAM. The American sports car, which hits the market in 2010, features variable LED interior lighting with OSRAM TOPLED. The JOULE LED system is the basis for the American muscle car’s rear signal lighting and gives the car a modern look as well as added efficiency and security.
The 2010 Mustang: a pioneer in automotive lighting

The new Mustang by Ford, a car whose legend has captivated entire generations, made its public debut. Ford presented technical innovations it had added to its bestseller along with a few optical changes. Modern lighting systems by OSRAM provide the 2010 Mustang with visual highlights as well as efficiency and added security.


The Mustang’s interior can be lit up in color according to personal preferences. OSRAM TOPLED offers the driver a range of color nuances for instrument lighting as well as for illuminating the Mustang lettering on the entry guards.


The LED behind the covers change at the push of a button, and with them the ambience in the interior.


The Munich lighting manufacturer also integrated sophisticated technology in the newly designed rear of the Mustang. The OSRAM JOULE LED system, which is hidden behind the Mustang’s three-piece tail lights, is in charge of all light functions, including the brakelight, turn signals and tail light. Developed for the automotive industry, the standardized system is based on powerful and highly efficient LED lamps which use ten times less energy than conventional bulbs. In practice, this form of lighting saves several liters of fuel each year.


JOULE affords designers new levels of design flexibility thanks to its compact design. The multifaceted LED light functions allow for a creative application of lighting. As with the Mustang forebears, the new Ford’s turn signals also work sequentially. They move from the inside to the outside through the cells in the three-piece tail light.


The LED signal lighting system by OSRAM raises the bar when it comes to safety. Braking in particular highlights the advantages of the diodes with their short response times. When braking in an emergency, split seconds often determine whether the car behind will be able to slow down in time to avoid a crash. These properties as well as the module’s ability to integrate smoothly into vehicle electronics leave no doubt about it - the LED lighting system is the future of automotive lighting.


Very soon LED sytems will also light the front parts of modern automobiles. Starting in mid-2009, the newest generation of headlights will be able to use OSRAM JOULE 50mm systems as a light source. Among the areas of application are light functions such as low beams, high beams, fog lights, daytime running lights and other configurable applications. System solutions like JOULE are another step on the path to making efficient LED lights standard in automotive engineering. Pioneers like the 2010 Mustang are already lighting the way.

I know Mustang when I was in secondary three as my English Teacher we called him Fatty Lee who drove a Mustang white with number plate "101" to work...
From these pictures 1968 and 2010 Mustang, which one you like more?

Yau Char Kway



Yau Char Kway
This Crispy savoury fried dough chan be consumed plain or dunk in coffee, plain congee, , goes with Soya milk or wrapped by Cheon Fen so called Char Leung in Hong Kong. or A must when it comes to Bak Kut Teh in Malaysia and Singapore.

Yau Char Kway has a long story which started in Ancient China when honourable and much-liked general was framed and put to death bu some one called Kui. In a show of anger and hatred, the folks deep fried and ate flour effigies of the villain giving rise to Yau Char Kway which means deep fried “Kui” (meaning Villain in Chinese)

Yau Char Kway is one of my favourite good especially in the morning. The Cha Leung goes with the peanut paste and sweet seafood sauce.


Now in the recent 8 years, this is already able to be served in a decent Chinese Restaurant as one type of Dim Sum. Beofore this type mof food is classified Daai Pai Donn food which is in a sense cheap food, not supposed to be servced in Chinese Restaurant!

Note that the food comes with Peanut Oil, Most of the restaurant of Dai Pai Donn does not replenished with new oil peridically as this is the cost, in Cantonese way of cooking we call this kind of oil Man Nin Yau (Ten thousand years oil) which is proven not good for your health. CANCER!


And when I inhaled some of the pungent favour of the oil, my body will tell me not to stay closer with it…

Anyway, go and eat with a restaurant or a Responsible Daai Pai Don…

China Influence


Wen Jiabao’s comment
Premier of the People’s Republic of China, commented on what we have done wrong. “the Crisis”,
said Wen JiaBao,” it is attributable to a variety of factors and the major ones are: inappropriate macroeconomic policies of some economics and their unsustainable model of development characterized by prolonged low saving and high consumptions: excessive expansion of financial institutions in the bind pursuit of profit: lack of self discipline among financial institutions and rating agencies and the ensuring distortion of risk information and assert pricing; the failure of financial supervision and regulation to keep up with financial innovations, which allowed the risks financial derivatives to build and spread.

A long term remedies include introduction of national policy on those imbalances will have to be unwound, preferably by fundamental changes to domestic policy that encourage saving in the U.S. and spending in China.

Global economy crisis require global solutions world traders are going to gather to address problems tat can not be solved by one of them alone. The pressing date is April when leaders of the G20 leading economies will meet in London, Continuing a dialogues they began in Washington last fall. So the next timing is April when we can review more on the actions of these G20 leaders… However , China plays a very crucial role in stablilizing and balancing the World economy as we have a big market for consumption! So as Wen said, we will spend more and US people to save more...


China Internal consumption Stimulus
Automobile business in China
Beijing national regular meeting announced that China will subsidies RMB 5.0B tax reduction for the purchase of 1.3L capacity or below car to replaced tricycle, slow speed truck in the rural area. This will target total sales of 10 millions cars in China in 2009. This is the way to target to be the world largest car consumption country other than US. In U.S., there are average 800 cars in 1,000 people and there is only average 20 in 1,000 people in China., the Market is tremendous. As in January 2009, the China car sale market is larger than in US!


China in 2009
This is an important year for China, 2009 is
60th anniversary for New China Country establishment
50th Tibet Dalai Lama, a mystic reverence who ruled over Tibet until the Chinese Communists took over. In April the 23-year-old Dalai Lama fled to India.
30th anniversary of the economic reform was unleashed by Tang Siu Ping
20th Tiananmen Square Event June 4 1989

China will by all means making a lot of effort in performing good economy in the international show ground as to tell the rest of the western world a China is not just a world factory but a more or less a high way running towards middle class country in the standard of western world.

Maintenance of High GPD target 10% and worse case 8% for 2009
A change of world factory to be more in technology base manufacturing
Build it own system in the industrial standard such as the New HD DVD to deferential to the Japanese standard. This will boost the Electronics and MM player market without paying royalty to the Japanese!
EU is considering abort the sanction of military sales to China after 20 years of Tiananmen event.
Promote the sales plan for car and government tax support for buying small car
Wu Han has been granted RMB 1,000B for stimulating the economic and to support 2 millions of workers.
Well, yet to else but soon that China will announce the use of EV car 50% by 2020 that will drive a lot of industrial move in the electronics, LEDs, battery technology and car manufacturing in China.

US Bailout
The congress had approved by majority the Democratic parties that a bailout of 787B was approved by 60 to 38 votes of approval on 13 Feb. Obama will sign officially in Denver in on 17 Feb.
Amongst the bailout, 35% of them amount will be used as tax reduction program. And 65% will b used as Government investment.

National Policy for Stimulus
Europe will impose law in the banning of 100W incandescent Light bulbs.
European Union has planned to scrap all Automobile more than 10 years as to push for use of new car.
European and US government is doing a lot for green energy resources including solar and LED illumination
GM is imposing new practice in the launch of at least one model of Hybrid car in each model of their products.
Obama is emphasis the use of more efficient car including the use of battery driven or Hybrid car.
China would announce a national plan to encourage the auto maker and transportation system including gas station to have charging facilities of EV Car, By 2020, China will have at least 50% of car running by battery, that is also one reason Warren Buffet invested in car in China 2009
International Monetary Fund Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn said the IMF still sees China's economy expanding 10 percent this year.
China will by all means try to target for this index.


Automobile Car Pileup
It is time for a good bargaining for car as General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda and Nissan were looking for buyers for 2,669,070 unsold vehicles in the U.S. at the end of 2008. According to Autodata Corp. in Woodcliff Lake, NJ., at the pace of cars and truck sold in Dec. it would take Honda 100 days, or Chrysler 115 days to clear always their pileups. That is almost double their inventory level a year earlier and far higher than the 60-days supply . Those analyses describe as normal.


Forecast for 2009
As on the U.S. bailout plan has been approved and it may take 1-2 quarters for result to be seen. By time Q3, new buys will come for Semicon equipment partly due to the bank will relax more for fund loans for IC investors. Semicon stock level will be at the lowest and factory is in need for more stock for shipment. We speculate that more internal drive for consumption in China will drive and boost up the market for electronic consumption and likely by End Q2, we should see order to come in a bigger scale. Of course nothing is 66.6% be easily foreseen, and this is purely my comment and opinion only.

We Shall Overcome




Joan Chandos Baez (born January 9, 1941 in Staten Island, New York) is a Mexican-American folk singer and songwriter known for her highly individual vocal style. Many of her songs are topical and deal with social issues.


She is best known for her hit "Diamonds & Rust" and her covers of Phil Ochs' "There But For Fortune" and The Bands "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" (a top-five single on the U.S. charts in 1971), and to a lesser extent,"We Shall Overcome," "Love Is Just A Four-Letter Word" and "Farewell Angelina", as well as, "Sweet Sir Galahad," and "Joe Hill" (songs she performed at the 1969 Woodstock festival).


She is also well known for her early and long-lasting relationship with Bob Dylan and her even longer-lasting passion for activism, notably in the areas of nonviolence, civil and human rights and, in more recent years, the environment.

Baez has performed publicly for nearly 50 years, released over 30 albums and recorded songs in at least eight languages. She is considered a folk singer although her music has strayed from folk considerably after the 1960s, encompassing everything from rock and pop to country and gospel. Although a songwriter herself, especially in the mid-1970s,. She has a three-octave vocal range.

This is a 1982 double LP produced by Vanguard and printed by NPc Japan and was distributed by Kings Records Ltd.

This is one of my favourite “We shall overcome”

We shall overcome, we shall overcome
We shall overcome, someday
Oh Deep in my heart I do believe
That we shall overcome someday

We’ll walk hand in hand we’ll walk hand in hand
We’ll walk hand in hand some day
Oh deep in my heart I do believe
That we shall overcome someday.


This is best song to describe the gloomy doom situation with all sorts of bad economic news everyday in Hong Kong.

And I do always believe that it will be good one day! As what we have mentioned, Hong Kong is a place of “Good blessing and luck”.

People of Hong Kong will stay happy and adequate for many years to come!
A wise man cares not for he cannot have, do not forget that you may have already many thing, get hold if it and to please with what you have… family, wife, kids and parent and may be bunch of good friend!


Let's sing together with Joan Baez “We shall overcome” !
Of course, we have to go for LP version, under a good cartridge on a stable turn table, from a pair of good UK loudspeakers. And Probably a pair of awesome power Labeled “ feverip” !


Enjoy what you have… if you do not have this LP, go to buy it from Ah Yau in Mong Kok and Ah Paul at Ap Liu Street.

It Is Always Darkest Before Day Dawn




Probably Hong Kong is now entering a real crisis besides WWII in the past 70 years. I have been gone through all these bad days! In 1962, Typhoon Wanda struck Hong Kong severely and caused Damages and casualties widespread throughout the Colony. 130 people were killed and 53 were missing. Approximately 72,000 people were registered as being homeless. Of a total of 20,287 small craft in Colony waters, 726 were wrecked, 571 were sunk and 756 damaged. Of a total of 132 ocean-going ships, 24 were beached and 12 involved in collisions. The "Vinkon" and "Haijye" ran aground near the railway line at Tai Po Kau and on Harbour Island respectively. The typhoon played havoc with field crops, fruits, vegetables and flowers in various districts of the New Territories. The loss was tremendous. I was in kindergarten and had fun for no school. This was a life and death case, more serious than any type of economy crisis. Of course, I was a bit too young to understand the issue at that time
People grew richer entering the 1970s. Not surprisingly, people started to look for some means of investment. The passing of Banking Ordinance of 1964 would begin the tightening up of banks. People began to have more trust in their banks, and the accumulation of savings led to people's willingness to invest.
Soon the stock rush began. New stocks were on sale every day; brokerage houses mushroomed; some people quit their own jobs to become full-time investors, suffering a kind of urban disease named "stock illness". It is said that the investors during this period numbered to 500,000. The Hang Seng Index kept soaring, it experienced 1700 points dropped to 400 point and then it rose up from 400 to 700 points and then right at that moment, people thought that the Hay day was coming and brought whatever they have into the black hole stock! All in sudden, Partly thanks to the foreign manipulators, the HS index dropped from 700 down to 150 points. the Stock market crashed in March. Many people were left bankrupted. Urban legend had it that the Castle Peak Psychiatric hospitals became full-house once the market crashed. The Hong Kong economy recovered only slowly over the next few years.

The lack of foreign exchange control and low tax contributed to the competitiveness of Hong Kong's economy. Though a floating rate, coupled with panic about the intensified political talk of the handover sent consumer confidence to an all-time low causing Black Saturday in 1983. The end result is that Hong Kong adopted a linked exchange rate system. The exchange rate between Hong Kong dollar and United States dollar was fixed at HKD $7.8 = US $1. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority's exchange fund was responsible for keeping the market rate stable. In the short period from just a decade ago, inflation would also increase from a rate of 5% in the 1970s to 12.7% by 1983. I still can recall that in 1981, we were suffering with extremely high interest rate of 18-21%, In 1987, the stock market fluctuated again…in 1997, then all of us had experienced a trigger from Thailand cause Asian Stock market turmoil. In 2001 Word Trade tower invasion and Economy Bubble burst on IT and Photonic market …
After another two years of more or less not much of a surprises, a Foshan professor went to the Hong Kong stayed in Metropark Hotel room 803 in Feb 2003 and that way he bought the first known case of SARS to HK and killed many people especial the victim in To Tai Garden Block E... Total death casualties was 916 persons. We have been stopping almost all commercial business, No customer visit to HK not customer coming to us. Tourists were scared to come to HK. HK people are not allowed or welcome to visit other country… Hong Kong became a city of plague! Everyone were wearing a N95 mask, no schools, I bought 2 cases of N95 using as I thought that might take over a year, well, the SARS left us in September quietly.
This time, so call, the worst crisis and some financial reporters used a new term “Economy Tsunami” to describe the disaster. It is true that the economy was bad, I had never had such a long vacation in my life... But I believe that it will go away one day!


This is the proper definition of recession by some economics Books

Recession:A recession occurs when a nation's living standards drop and prices increase. This downturn in economic activity is widely defined as a decline in a country's gross domestic product for at least 2 quarters. Depression:An economic condition caused by a massive decrease in business activity, falling prices, reduced purchasing power, excess of supply over demand, rising unemployment, and other negative economic factors.
I can say now we are in a state of between recession and depression.
Someone said “When your neighbor lost his job, it is Recession. When you lose your job, it is Depression!”


Our CEO had announced that we do not have layoff culture to the media last December. It was a typical CSR and if everyone would have maintained all the jobs for their employees, recession will not occur anymore.


This is observations a friend of mine returning from US last week: Most electronics, clothing, home game, room designer stores had very low inventories and offering huge discounts. It was obvious that they were not reordering inventory after the Christmas shopping season which finished a month ago. Many building, roads, bridges and construction projects are on hold. Sales in real estate that can't close on home sales.

People were actually laid off due to an operation closure. If the layoff is to be continued to worsen. There will have 5 million unemployment in US within this years.

People are all hesitate for car purchases. US Car sales is smaller in number than car sales in China!

The US government Obama is coming up with another 800 Billions stimulus package which is being called "Porkulus", because only 12% of it will go to actual economic stimulus, and the rest is going to pork barrel spending. Where do all these trillions of dollars come from? The tax payers won't be able to ever pay for all of this government spending, because many are without jobs. US is kept busy in printing bank notes and one day the US dollar will depreciate!
Then HK will be affected as we are packed with green backs!
The US financial system is being socialized by a bunch of crooked politicians who have no idea about how to run a business.
US schools are teaching the youth that Capitalism is a bad thing!
There are taxes levied on everything in the US! And all the government waste is an outrage.

Business overall is horrible everywhere and more so in China. Taiwan is down as well. We believe all this media doom and gloom and stop buying stuff. Maybe this is the Lords way of letting us know where we are to materialism and to get closer to each other as family and friends.

Thought the situation is bad, live is going on! My daughters asked me how to handle. I sent them through e-mail on tips for better life in 2009.

Take at least 10Km walk every week. And while you
walk, chat with your friends, and smile as smile is the ultimate anti-depressant. Smiling will keep the NEGATIVE BLUES away.

Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day, let your mind calm.
Try to sleep at 2300-0300 everyday to allow your kidney to rest.
When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement, “Thank god, I’ve gained one day!”
Play more games and read more books than you did in
2008. If you have not read any book in 2008, that is the real problems!
Eat good Butter, not margarine!
More tea, less coffee, more water, less sugar, less salt and cream
Eat until you feel 65% full, not more than that level.
Try to make at least three people smile each day.
Talk Friendly, Act professionally.
Dress up neatly, brush your shoe before you meet your customers.
AQ, EQ not IQ that matters.
Life can never be fair, but it's still good.
Angry is a short madness. Think for 15 seconds when you are angry, then you calm down and feel well.
Work 30% more.
Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
No one is in charge of your happiness except you.
Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show
up.

Frame every so-called disaster with these words: 'In
three years, will this matter?'

It is always darkest before day dawn as the best is yet to come.

Decade Old Wine!


“On one new year’s eve, I was celebrating at a restaurant with a bunch of friends and I decided to order a glass of red wine to accompany the countdown.
I randomly chose one and it went well to welcome in the new Year.
We stayed until after midnight and I ordered another glass f same red wine.
When it came to time to leave. I got my bill and noticed my second glass of the same wine cost more, I consulted the waiter, who told me that after midnight, the wine was technically one year older and had now become a “decade-old wine” – as compared to the original, unimpressive nine-year vintage- which, according to restaurant policy, costs more.

I’m happy to report that restaurant is closed now!”

Sweet and Sour Pork


This is one of my favourite dish, any probably the mots popular recipe in fast food restaurant.


However, there is not so many people who can cook well on this. My mother can cook good one, but I can not ask her to cook all the time as this is tedious task to prepare for this dish!
They should prepared with attitude using the right ingredient. As this is no a expensive recipe at restaurant, but all it takes a a lot of effort!

The pork should be 30% fat and 70% meat. Kaw, white Vinegar, brown sugar...


So far I have not tried a very satisfactory one, but this was some kind of surprise that I took this in a MongKok Fook Yeun Restaurant some time before the Chinese New Year.


The restaurant was right on top of Mongkok MTR station exit to the Bank Centre.


But day before Yesterday, I went there for Dim Sum!


Probbaly they have no Dim Sum masters in the Chiense new year, the Dim Sum was a disastrous!

There is a pot of Gold at the end of the Rainbow


Hongkongers have been named the most pessimistic in the world. An annual poll ranked Hong Kong the Gloomiest, along with Iceland, just 12 months after it came first in the global ranking for optimistim.

Sixty-seven per cent of residents said that the believe this year would be worse than 2008, in the poll carried our by information group TNS and Gallup International.


This time last yearm 71 per cent felt optimistic about prospects for the coming year.



Lan Kwai Fong founder Allan Zeman said, "People are nevrous. People are afraid, However, it is time for everyone to pull together stay positive and help one another face this tsunami. We' ve faced problems in the past and overcome them. I do not think there's a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and Hong Kong will have a much righter future."


Hongkongers are forgetful, nervous, money-minded, having street smart, hard working people. One day they are optmistic and pessimistic in the next morning. Sometime this is a good element for making them rich. But also these are the the points they they wll lose money in stock market easily, HS index drop more than the Dow Jones in these past 6 months is the proof.


Hong Kong People is supertitious but I do not expect to put my fortune in a new year good wish
