Detail of "Dance of Life"

I was very saddened to hear of the passing my artist friend, Ib.

Its not commonly known that Ib was blind in his right eye, due to a childhood accident with a dart. This makes his prowess as an artist even more of an achievement. Without the benefit of binocular stereo-vision, perspective become a very challenging issue. He obviated this potential handicap by working with techniques that didn't rely on perspective ~ particularly freeform contour lines. For this reason, he tended to avoid painting portraits, and so, on the rare occasions that he did accept portrait commissions, the results, lacking perspective, were not particularly flattering for the subject.

I think his magnus opus is Dance of Life (see detail, above) which displays his "contour lines" technique.

Ib is never without his trademark "cheeky smile."

Ib had an irreverent and cheeky sense of humour. For the catalogue of an exhibition at the US Embassy curated by Yeoh Jin Leng, of works by leading Malaysian artists who had studied in the US, he had submitted just two words: "Big Deal!" for his entry in the catalogue. Not wanting to embarrass the American hosts, his entry was reduced to: "Big!" He was greatly amused by this censorship.

One of his paintings using the "contour lines" technique depicts a male and a female form entwined in orgasmic ecstasy. When I asked Ib why he had called the painting "Arrival," he asked me for another word that means "arrival." We burst out laughing when I realised it was a play on "coming"!

Our Future: 2009 & After

2009-01-03T23:36:00.002+08:00

Economic and political analysts alike have noted that the current global (it's not just American) economic crisis is a direct consequence of unsustainable consumerism. Factories in China are closing down every day due to canceled orders from the US and Europe; China being the cheap "sweatshop factory" to the world.

The solution to all this is the simple central message in THE ART OF HAPPINESS by The Dalai Lama ~ fulfill your needs, not your wants.

AN EXAMPLE
All humans need hydration, best fulfilled by plain water ~ yet the doctrine of consumerism insists we purchase from a whole host of unwanted products from Coca-Cola to Lipton to Starbucks to Carlsberg to Dom Perignon.

Unless you're a baby, in which case milk is a sensible drink (even then, breast milk is free), there is no nutritional need for you to drink anything but plain water. Everything else is a want, all unwarranted by your body's needs but insisted upon by consumerism.

It then comes as no surprise that post-modern man suffers a host of diseases unknown to our forefathers ~ we have been feeding our bodies with preservatives, food enhancers, colouring, conditioners and other gunk and junk (all processed meat, including sausages, contain sodium nitrate, for example).

One in four people will contract some form of cancer within their lifetime. Pancreatic cancer is the fourth largest killer among cancers yet no progress had been made towards finding a cure since the 1930s. It would not take too much funding to get this cancer licked, not too much compared to the huge amounts we spend on things we want, rather than need.

Please do a big favour to yourself and to the rest of humanity: spend a few minutes listing down the things you purchase as a result of thinking it is something you want, rather than fulfilling an actual physiological, nutritional or emotional need. Then promise yourself never to purchase them again. It may be the most profound new year's resolution you'll ever make.

REMEMBER
Fulfill your needs, not your wants. The rest will follow.

Flora Damansara ~ Bad News

2008-09-09T21:45:00.003+08:00

Until very recently, I was considering buying an apartment in Flora Damansara. I even visited a friend's unit to see what its like inside. He's renting the three-bedroom unfurnished apartment with two other bachelors for RM600 a month.

A quick search on the internet made me realise what a mess Flora Damansara is in:

http://www.internetnow.com.my/ilyas/photos/floramajordefects/

http://floradamansara.com/wp/

Buyers up in arms over late delivery and compensation

MBPJ to meet Flora Damansara condo owners and builder to resolve problems

Even driving to Block D where the management office is was a challenge as cars were indiscriminately parked on both sides of the road. Clearly, there isn't enough parking at Flora Damansara. I learnt from the people at the Management Office that Blocks A, B & C are low-cost flats whilst Blocks D, E, F and H are medium cost apartments. (There is no Block G). Altogether there are 3,608 units on 27.55 acres of land.

A trip up the lifts showed how dirty Block F is. Graffiti everywhere and the strong stench of urine. Cat urine or human urine, I did not bother to investigate. I dare not touch anything. Apparently Block F has chronic water shortages due a faulty water pump that has never been adequately repaired.

The developer of Flora Damansara is Saujana Triangle Sdn Bhd (33910-W), a subsidiary of MK Land. MK Land, according to this blog piece, is in big financial trouble. The Emkay Group of companies is controlled by developer Tan Sri Mustapha Kamal Abu Bakar. Setia Haruman, the master developer of Cyberjaya, is an associate company of Emkay Group, in which Mustapha holds majority shares.

Hello,

Pardon me for not having the pleasure of knowing your mindset before
making you this offer and it is utterly confidential and genuine by
virtue of its nature. I write to solicit your assistance in a funds
transfer deal involving US$ 3.5M.This fund has been stashed out of the
excess profit made last 2years by my branch office of the International
Commercial Bank of Ghana which I am the manager.

I have already submitted an approved end-of-the-yearreport for the year
2007 to my head office here in Accra-Ghana and they will never know of
this excess. I have since then, placed this amount on a Non-Investment
Account without a beneficiary. Upon your response, I will configure your
name on our database as holder of the Non-Investment Account. I will then
guide you on how to apply to my head office for the Account Closure/
bank-to-bank remittance of the funds to your designated bank account.

If you concur with this proposal, I intend for you to retain 30% of the
funds while 70% shall be for me.

In your response i will give you more information and how you can apply
for this fund in your favour.

With Regards,
George Nduka

Worldwide Cost of Living Rankings 2008

2008-08-23T10:23:00.009+08:00

Kuala Lumpur gets a 106th ranking (Index about 75) - - The survey relates to costs for expatriates but in Asia for example, food costs in restaurants patronised by locals are usually inexpensive compared with prices in areas frequented by tourists. Ceiling fans compared with air conditioning can eliminate a tax of 5% in Malaysia! The cost of a 4-dish meal for two, excluding beverages, at the Good World Chinese restaurant in Dublin, would cost about €75 (US$112) - in Malaysia, the cost for an equivalent meal including steamed fresh fish, would cost €12 (US$19).

Asia
Tokyo is the costliest Asian city, in 2nd place (score 127), two places up since last year. Seoul follows in 5th place (score 117.7) and Hong Kong closely after in 6th with a score of 117.6. Singapore ranks 13th and holds a score of 109.1. Karachi continues to be the least costly city in this region, in 141st place with a score of 54.7.

Whilst the five top-scoring cities in Asia remain relatively stable in the ranking there have been significant changes further down the list. In India, Mumbai moves up four places to reach 48 (score 90.3), whereas New Delhi climbs 13 places to 55 (score 87.5) due to the strengthening of the India rupee against the US dollar. Although India has experienced relatively high inflation, this has increased at similar pace to New York and has therefore had a reduced impact on its cities’ rise in the rankings. Manila rises a total of 27 places, ranking 110th with a score of 73.4, mainly as a result of price increases for international-standard accommodation.

In contrast, certain cities in this region have experienced significant falls in the ranking. Some examples are Jakarta falling from 55th to 82nd place (score 80.5) and Bangkok dropping from 95th to 105th place with a score of 75.1. In Vietnam, Hanoi drops 35 places to rank 91 (score 79) and Ho Chi Minh City drops 40 places to rank 100th (score 76.3), mainly because the Vietnamese dong has remained stable against the US dollar and so has pushed these cities down on the list. The low level of inflation observed on goods in these Vietnamese cities compared to in New York has further widened the gap.

BEWARE OF CONMAN

2008-07-06T19:57:00.007+08:00

Name: DAVID LIEW

Accomplice: MARY (supposed wife)
H/P Numbers: 012-270 2689, 017-266 0119

Police Station: Jalan Bandar (H.S. Lee)
District: Dang Wangi
Report No: THSL/021636/08
Date: 06/07/2008
Time 1721 hrs

I was contacted by a DAVID LIEW by telephone. He uses two handphone numbers: 012-270 2689 and 017-266 0119. He purportedly wanted to purchase three condominiums, each of value RM1.8 million. We made an appointment to meet today, Sunday, 6 July 2008 on the Second Floor of Metrojaya at Bukit Bintang Plaza at 2.30 pm. When I arrived at the appointed place, I telephoned him to inform that I had arrived. He asked me to proceed to the Third Floor of Metrojaya, Bukit Bintang Plaza. He met me on the Third Floor and invited me to join him for a drink at Johnny's Restaurant at Level B1 of Bukit Bintang Plaza while we wait for his wife, MARY, to join us.

DAVID LIEW is tall, about 175 cm and big sized, about 90 kg. He was wearing beige trousers and a white shirt. He has a dark complexion (for a Chinese) and looks more Eurasian (serani). His accent sounds more like a bloody mamak than Chinese. His general looks, physique and complexion reminds me of Pua Choo Kang.

While on the way down in the lift, his wife MARY NG called my handphone and asked if DAVID was with me, at which point I passed my handphone to him to speak to MARY NG. However, the line was cut off as there was low signal in the lift. Upon reaching Johnny's Restaurant, DAVID LIEW ordered a fresh orange without ice for himself and a fresh orange with ice for me while we waited for his wife, MARY NG. MARY NG called my handphone again and again I passed my handphone to DAVID. He tried to explain to her our location but because we were in Level B1 (Basement 1), the signal was low. DAVID asked me to wait while he went up to GROUND level to get a better signal. I was not suspicious as he had left two seal brown envelopes at the table.

However, at 3.30 pm, after waiting for an hour for DAVID to return, I because suspicious ad opened the two brown envelopes that were sealed with staples. One contained blank pieces of paper and the other old folded newspaper. At this point I realized DAVID LIEW was a con-man who had used the ruse to steal my NOKIA 3110 Classic handphone which is valued at RM699. My handphone is 019-282 9526. I have already reported to CELCOM, who have barred the line.

I am making this Police Report in the hope that PDRM can catch this DAVID LIEW and MARY NG, prosecute these mother-fuckers, recover my RM699 handphone and get the bastard to pay RM6.80 for the drinks and RM5.50 for my parking.

IF ANYBODY HAS ANY INFORMATION ABOUT DAVID LIEW OR MARY NG, KINDLY CONTACT THE INVESTIGATING OFFICER SERGEANT JOHAN, 016-684 9827.

Update:

Hi Azlan

A few of my friends (a few recent victims as well) will be able to help us in our quest to get this guy. The last time he hit, he hit 2-3 people in my circle of friends/ acquaintances at once. Hence our plan to nab him around the Lot 10/Sungai Wang/Times Square area. We had everything planned out with around 10 people to nail him. (And also a van full of Indians from Klang, but he was very late, so we left). But, unfortunately, he backed out, possibly due to the heavy rain that day. This was about 2 months back.

There was a failed attempt just 2 weeks back at KL Convention Center. Another designer acquaintance. What we need to do is get the police to send his mugshot to all shopping malls (his modus operandi is around 1Utama, KLCC, Lot 10, Sungai Wang, Times Square).

Petrol Price Hike

2008-06-03T23:31:00.003+08:00

I'm quite certain that the Malaysian government will announce a petrol price hike on Wednesday, June 4, 2008 from the current RM1.92/litre to RM2.82/litre. This follows from a review of the fuel subsidy mechanism ~ although a quota system has already been mooted, implementing such a system is well beyond the mental capacity of our pea-brained Prime Minister. So its going to be a simple price hike.

Up-Date:
Okay, I was wrong. New price is RM2.704 per litre.

Cold Callers

2008-05-31T00:33:00.005+08:00

Don't you just hate cold callers?

Yesterday, I got a call from this woman called Anisa (019-271 5214) of Iklisa Samudera Sdn Bhd inviting me to a business seminar at 7.30 pm today. Apparently, someone (I refrain from using the word "friend") who attended one of their previous seminars thought I was a petani and "kindly" gave them my handphone number.

Of course, I wasn't interested in wasting my time but I told her "Yes, I was coming," just to screw her up. Within 30 minutes a guy (probably her bloody upline) called up on a Private Number asking me to confirm my attendance. I just hate people calling from Private Numbers so I just kept quiet until he realised he was talking to himself and hung up. Then he and Anisa tried calling me umpteen times but I didn't pick up, I just let the phone ring.

In the meantime, Anisa sent an sms with their address and my "Pass Number." I suppose this was to ensure that the "friend" who referred me automatically becomes my "upline."

Today, another woman called Ida called up from 019-271 2790 asking me to confirm attendance for their taklimat bela ikan keli. I replied, "Oh, saya tak jadi lah."

She asked: "Kenapa?"

I replied: "Saya tersalah dengar. Ingatkan kursus cari bini. taklimat bela ikan keli saya tak minat, tapi kalau ada projek cari bini, saya tersangat minat."

She hung up.

I don't think I'll be hearing from those people at Iklisa Samudera Sdn Bhd of 303-3, 3rd floor, Jalan 14/22, Right Angle Park, Section 14, Petaling Jaya in a long while.

If you wanna give these cold callers a hard time, do ring them up and express an interest in attending their "taklimat projek cari bini."

Or, "projek cari laki," or even "projek ternakan bela babi" as the case may be.
