My experience - Hung Kee Wan Tan Mee trip @Jalan Loke Yew

This wasn’t my first time to this shop , I still remember my father use to bring all of us there for a wan tan mee  and their famous “cha siew” .

We order 1 pax of cha siew just to test the water and the price , (lesson learn from Imbi famous ;”cha siew” which cost us > RM50 for 2 pax)

But this cha siew was mix with enough juice and really nice and big portion for 1 pax…1 thumb up

A pomegranate a day keeps the cardiologist away–a kind email from my sister…

 

It used to sell at RM 5 per fruit in hyper markets. Nowadays you can pick it up for RM 2.50 for 1 from the hawkers .
EVERY SEED OF POMEGRANATE IS A SEED OF LIFE FOR YOUR HEART
“Bypass your bypass surgery” by Dr Syed Zair Hussain Rizvi
Two things are full of benefits for the human being, lukewarm water and pomegranate (石榴).

Pomegranate is a seasonal fruit in Pakistan, so I tried an experiment with dried pomegranate seeds.  I prepared a decoction boiling the fistful of dried seeds in half a litre of water for 10 minutes, squeezed the seeds, strained the decoction and advised those patients suffering from painful angina to use a glass of lukewarm decoction on an empty stomach in the morning.
An amazing result was observed, the decoction of dried pomegranate seeds worked like magic.  The feeling of tightness and heaviness in the chest and the pain had gone.
It encouraged me to try more experiments on all types of cardiac patients.   So, I tried other experiments on patients who were suffering from painful angina, coronary arterial blockage, cardiac Ischemia (insufficient blood-flow to the heart muscle) etc., waiting for a bypass surgery.
The same lukewarm decoction was used on an empty stomach in the morning.  The patients experienced quick relief in all symptoms including painful condition.  
In another case of coronary arterial blockage, the patient started using half glass of fresh pomegranate juice everyday for one year.
Although all symptoms were completely relieved within a week, he continued taking it for a whole year.   It completely reversed the plaque build-up and unblocked his arteries to normal.
The angiography report confirmed the evidence.   Thus, this decoction of dried pomegranate seeds, fresh pomegranate juice or eating a whole pomegranate on empty stomach in the morning proved to be a miracle cure for cardiac patients.
But the lukewarm 'dried-seeds decoction' proved to be more effective, compared to eating a whole pomegranate or fresh pomegranate juice. 
Use of pomegranate, in any way, has demonstrated even more dramatic effects as a blood thinner and as a pain killer for cardiac patients.  It also lowers LDL (low-density lipoprotein or bad cholesterol) and raises the HDL (high-density lipo protein or good cholesterol).

There are more than 50 different types of heart diseases; the most common being Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), which is the number one killer of both women and men in some countries, and there has been no medicinal cure for this disease.
Many cardiac patients have reversed their heart diseases on my advice, using one glass of lukewarm decoction of pomegranate dried seeds, half glass of fresh pomegranate juice or eating a whole pomegranate on an empty stomach in the morning.
It was the very first real breakthrough in the history of cardiology to successfully treat the cardiac diseases by the use of a fruit.

More super foods to obtain even faster results for cardiac patients, (which are most promising for curative and protective agents) are fresh raisins, quince, guava, prunes (dried plums), natural vinegar, mixture of grape-fruit juice and honey in the morning (on an empty stomach), basil leaves, chicory leaves, powder of oregano leaves and rock salt in equal quantity (in case the patient is not hypertensive) and sesame oil as cooking oil for cardiac patients.
I regret to say that treating the heart patients and bypass surgery has become a far more profitable business around the world, which has failed to help avert life-threatening heart attacks and life-time cardiac complications, resulting in an almost paralyzed life.
A regular use of pomegranate (in any way) ensures a healthy cardiac life, thinning your blood, dissolving the blood clots and clearing the obstruction inside the coronary arteries, maintaining an optimal blood flow, supporting a healthy blood pressure, preventing and reversing atherosclerosis (thickening of the internal lining of the blood vessels). 
From whatever I have experienced and observed in the last several years, I can definitely say: “A pomegranate a day keeps the cardiologist away.”

Compact SUV in Malaysia market- CRV ,CX-5 ,XV …..


After our second baby join our family , it become difficult now when we wanted to travel with family , time of moving car seat , trolley in and out from our car became very frequent .
at the same time , I also feel that it is time maybe to change my Wira , after 8 yr free of car installement .
I’m looking for a stylish SUV at least it don’t show that I’m still Uncle Raymond.

Fuel consumption = 6 Liter /100KM
Safety 6 airbag

pho_gallery_CX5_ext4
My personal experience – I haven’t test drive this because all of the dealer don’t really registered their car (according to them there was not enough stock left due to higher demand 6 month waiting period)
Safety, interior and exterior was very good but last yr Jun it might be a CKD model and we can expect accessory will reduce (common practice among Malaysia car manufacture although car build up price was reduce)

Subaru XV

My personal experience – car was stable and solid when drive in rough road especially malaysia road ..Smile , engine was responsive and able to pick up very fast as when we flow the acceleration pedal.
Only thing was – the resales values (I wonder why I want to sell it off ) , lack of service center around malaysia and Kuala Lumpur  . Maintenance pair was almost par with BMW …

Kia Sportage

Price around 139k , 2000cc

Window of the world @shenzhen

Actually travel in shenzhen was really relax because their metro (LRT- Malaysia) is very convenience even with European can also understand where to go ..not like malaysia all too much focus on single language.

All picture was taken by using my iphone with my college together , on that time the temperature was at 29’c ( suddenly hike up from 19’c yesterday) .. it make sense also because the session is going to change to summer from spring..Smile

We manage to cover the whole area at least but there was some activity which require additional $$ hence we did’t go for that … further because of our budget constraints (We are going there to work but not to play principal) , hence we need to rush back to take our train and bus transit…Smile 

Enjoy the clip.

 

How to go there ? I got a short note on this , check it out.

By Subway:
Take
Shenzhen Metro Line 1 and get off at Shijiezhichuang (Window of the World) station

Bye delivery , it was time for me to move to front seat to grab better picture on the whole services

 

This was my 1st post for year 2012 , i tender and leaving HP last year to pursuit something different which yr doing for 5 year plus.

Still remember when i start my 1st job in IT line , i was working in a division size and it grown up to a department within the same company for 5 year , and i straight jump to SI sector for 6 yr in financial sector.

From 1995 till 2011 , i learn alot of stuff and engage alot kind of people from Malaysians , European , US , Korea, China , Singapore , African .  From White , Yellow , Black Skin..:)

HP was a total different area of work which talk about service and delivery . Service is like when customer wanted HP to grab part of their business process such as BPO/ITO/DC/Network/Payroll and so on… it involve not only IT actually.

My new jobs was position as solution analyst , no more team lead/SPOC/ Programming /On call / Midnight call …  it was about design and document a solution which can be deploy and sales to our customer and the area was about Manage Services. Interest !!!! .

I will blog more about this area in future , do watch up my blog.
