Uniting Malaysian via Sports

Was in Sepang this afternoon for A1GP Malaysia. Malaysian from all walks of life are there to cheer for Team Malaysia. At least for the few hours, all the negative racial publicity on the media had totally get out of my mind, and I truly feel that we are Malaysian.

Sports is uniting Malaysian in this country. Be it Fauzy Fairuz who was behind the wheel at Sepang, Lee Chong Wei who is playing in the finals in China Open or Nicol David extending her winning records in Hong Kong, we are cheering for them because they represent Malaysia, and we are Malaysian.

Hope all the policitians or "politicians to be" can spend more time in the sports arena, to catch more Malaysian spirit and speak more Malaysian like.

The "e" - Then and Now

During the internet boom some 10 years ago, the "e" has been tagged as "electronic". We have e-Banking, e-Mall, e-Insurance, e-Filing etc. This "e" has totally changed the way we live, learn and play.

Todate, when this "e" is already integrated into our life, another "e" had emerged strongly. The new "e" is the "environment".

Global warming / climate change had become the most talk about global issue, and the world are seriously looking into environment preservation. Common terms always associated to the new "e" are: green; reduce; reuse; recycle; energy saving; clean energy; carbon reduction ...

Be it for the sake of complying to regulations, or for the heart of saving our planet earth, people are taking more serious steps to preserve our environment. Together, I believe we are able to sustain our planet earth. Just remember this, a green step a day keeps the heat (climate change) away.
