INDONESIAN SINETRON...

I have to admit i am addicted to this Indonesian "sinetron" which is aired over TV9 and the story plots never end eventhough it already reached more than 150 episodes..wow...that sounds unusual ..ha ha. but yet the story is still exaggerating !

"Cinta And Anugerah" is a story about first love and the twist and turn , the betrayal, temporary dissapearance, revenge, family dispute and of course , star-studded kind of telenovela. At least , the sinetron keeps my family glued to the channel having our evening tea while watching it together.



Futhermore, what so special besides all the Indonesian stars is that, 2 Malaysian actors act in it..none other than the popular , Ashraff Sinclair aka Mr. Bunga Citra Lestari and Keith Foo, Malaysian chinese who speaks fluent Indonesian languange.

BEIJING CHANGED !!

I managed to deviate from year end work crises to visit the capital of Republic of China and if it wasn't for an important meeting , i had no business to be here once again. My pioneer visit was almost 15 years ago and it was courtesy or a present from my parents for getting good SPM results and i realized that the city changed. There was no longer the non-hygienic toilet "hole" !!!



The transport system has developed extensively . Cheap comfy taxis , readily avaible buses and not forgetting the subway which i thought was cool and ahead of ours back in KL. No wonder the millions of bicycles across the streets has dissapeared from the scene.

It was a very short trip and just before flying back to KL, i paid the Forbidden City a visit. Frankly speaking, i will definitely be back here soon as i love China, chinese people and chinese food and i hope the younger generation learn more of world "lingua franca" to avoid miscommunications :)
