I met this gentleman dressed in long-sleeves and tie this morning. We had breakfast together.
What intrigued me was his comment, “At this age of mine, I am beginning to see the wood of my coffin. I see things a little different now. I told my superior let’s work for efficiency without burdening the subordinates with surface paper-work that has nothing to do with efficiency just to fulfill the requirements of ISO. “ Read more »

I first met the proprietor 2 weeks ago. He has always been courteous and very friendly. He is what I would call a sincere and earnest young man who wants to make his business succeed but his place is still new and lacks publicity. It opened on the 26th of November, 2006.

This is for you, Alan

In today’s update in the Borneo Post..it was stated the baby was blown away 100m and not 100ft.
Baby Cathrina is still in a coma. The Sibu medical staff are monitoring her condition and the results of her scan have been sent to Kuching through the internet for the neurologist to study.
If there is a need, she will be sent to Kuching or the neurologist fly over.
Let us continue to keep her in our prayers everybody. i believe God listens to prayers. It is not due to evil spirits as some believe but a quirk of fate. God’s will, will be done but our prayers will help.
