Travelling from Melaka to KL 7 Nov 2011

It is another end of the weekend and time to go back Melaka.Luckily,I had already booked the ticket from KL to Melaka earlier.Else ,i will be queuing at the Terminal Bersepadu Selatan .

The bus was slightly late and we managed to depart from TBS at 4.15 pm.Bus passed by Sungai Besi Toll at 4.30pm.Transnasional bus was slightly faster and pass by Seremban around 5pm.Then, the surprise of the day along the highway come from the car fire after the Pedas toll.A Proton Saga was burning in flame as we passed by.What a day for the car owner!

Anyway,bus reached Batu Berendam around 6 pm.Safe journey

Batu Berendam

If you can see thrto ough the picture,this is near Batu Berendam airport which is Melaka only airport.Just see that the airfield is turning their lights for landing job.

Maybank credit card AMEX.It is not free?

I receive a phone call from a guy which identify him as a Maybank employee and introduce me their product American Express Personal Charge card.It looks promising since the Maybank guy stated it was free.But ,beware that this is actually a trap.I had called Maybank Customer centre and ask for further details .In reality,we will still need to pay RM50 for the goverment tax.

Even the website also causing some confusion.

Car accident

My car was hit from behind when i went back home from my office.The person admitted that it was his mistake and the excuse he gave is that he accidentally hit the accelarator fuel (Funny).Since both of us work in the same company, i did not go so cruel with him since he agree to pay the damage.Anyway,it still a scenario/incident which i should not want it to occur.

National Semiconductor Melaka

It is going to change soon for a better growth and performance.

Samsung S2 Hot + Samsung Service Centre?

This Samsung S2 is an expensive phone and it is abnormal to get easily hot.The heat from my phone comes near the camera.Based on my work in Semiconductor industry, it may be some parts/device gets faulty.Perhaps,Samsung already knows about their defect.(Nothing it's perfect in the manufacturing industry)

I had also made phone call to Samsung Service Center and they advise me to pay visit to the Service Center.As you see above,the temperature is abut 50c.Anyone please kindly comment and share your experience

Kancil aircond water?

I think during weekend i am too free and somehow noticed that my car had some leaking.I went to workshop and they say it is actually car air conditioner water that condense.Anyway ,feel free to share and comment

Papermate pen price

What is the price difference for both of the pen?Just to let you know that there is 50% difference in pricing for the 2 pens.This is the what we pay extra for design and better packaging.If you are a simple user,you will find that both pen are similar in term of its function.


Perhaps,Papermate can give better idea in term of the sales performance from the customer.Which pen sales higher and are more profitable?Haha

CIMB Batang Kali Bank Slow Service

It's very disappointing experience when I visited the CIMB Batang Kali on 29 August 2011 for some bank stuff. CIMB is regarded the premier bank in Malaysia but basically it's just a bank that that still need improvement in their service.Out there,there are other bank that provide better quality services to their customer


The CIMB Batang Kali counter services for performing bank transaction was very slow.I waited for more than an hour but at the end did not wait for my turn.See pictures above on why i did not wait for my turn.In 1.25 hours,they only manage to serve about 14 customers.

CIMB management staff should improve their customer services.I lost 1 hour just to wait for their services.This is time wasting and its business you can gain or fail within this time.

Plus Highway 27 August 2011.Rebate?

It's Hari Raya holiday week and it's balik kampung time.PLUS Highway is giving rebate to their motorist but i am not entitle to get it.I travelled from Ayer Keroh to Tanjung Malim with a toll rate of RM29.20 on 27th August 2011.A 20% discount will save me RM5.80.FYI,I am Touch n Go user.

PLUS offers rebates on selected date only.There will be 20% discount on 25th August 2011 and 26th August 2011.Please check the PLUS official website http://www.plus.com.my/ for further detail as i did not post all the time

A check at their Financial Report shows that PLUS Expressway's earns RM383.49 million for their 2nd Quarter 2011.I don't think there are not generous enough to offer the Hari Raya Toll rebates.Bear in mind that rebates are not similar to discount.They should think something extra for their customers to cheer on.

Quotes from Business Article

"PLUS Expressway Bhd's earnings rose 28.7% to RM383.49 million in the second quarter ended June 30, 2011 from RM297.86 million a year ago, boosted by an increase in toll collection by RM41.10 million."

Samsung S2 hot

All the reviews regarding this phone so far was impressive and hot.

But for my Samsung Galaxy S2,this phone had high temperature(hot).Everything was good but not for the heat disipation.The phone can reach 50C when charging and it prevent me from making a phone call.

Android and Samsung S2 user,

Do you had any experience on this?

Kuala Selangor Quick Dinner

The opening of the LATAR highway in June had prompted us to visit Kuala Selangor for a quick dinner.LATAR highway is actually KL-KUALA SELANGOR EXPRESSWAY .It is open to public and it is toll free until 31st August 2011.

We had dinner at River View Seafood Restaurant.Prices are reasonable(RM87.50) for 5 pax and consider tasty.Menu for the dinner include Crab,Squid,Fish and Oyster.

KTM ETS ,June 19 2011

This is the second time i take my ride on the ETS since its introduction early August 2010.

Depart:Kuala Kubu Bharu
Arrival:Seremban
Price:RM20

The train again arrive late at the station about 11 minutes (Depart time:1537).Along the way, the train eventually stop halfway for about 15 minutes( suspect electrical failure).The train however able to reach Seremban at 1540(only about 10 minutes late from the schedule)

It is very obvious that ETS main customer will be mainly the passenger from Ipoh.KTM Commuter still will be the more prefer choice of transportation if ETS did not reduce its price.KTM should think promotional campaign for frequent and loyal customer .

Seremban Railway Station

This picture was taken on 24 Apr 2011.Just to share

a)Clock tower clock not working(Time not accurate.Someone please verify it again if visit to Seremban Railway Station )

b) Time system for train arrival not working

Comment from the "Faster train service,please"

For evey commuterist,we should support this article written by Dr A. Soorian.

Currently, KTM had the ETS but the time travel can be surely be improved.

Quote from the article
"What Negri Sembilan needs is a bullet train service from KL to Seremban — taking about half an hour — for rapid transfer of tourists to the state. At present it takes about one-and-a-half hours to travel the distance by KTM Komuter. Time is of the essence for tourists and they should be relieved of boredom and time-wasting exercises. "

F1 losing its popularity in Malaysia?

F1 is regarded the 3rd most watch sports event in the world.However, 2011 seems to be a losing popularity year. Our local Malaysia TV do not had any live coverage (Dissapointing from Ministry of Sports and other main sponsor). Malaysia had three teams in the fray but our fans cannot watch them on our Local TV. To make things worse,it become hard nowadays to find a restaurant that broadcast F1.Where is the F1 Fans from Malaysia?
