Happy Chinese New Year!!!!!


Here we are in the year of Tiger as we step in the new lunar year. I Would like to wish all my blog readers Happy Chinese New Year. Gong Xi Fatt Chai~新年快乐~虎虎生威~恭喜发财~have a prosperous year ahead. Most importantly stay healthy, watch your food intake especially during this festive period.

During the celebration of the Tiger year, I noticed that the weather in our country has become so hot that we no longer can really enjoy eating freely during CNY because we can easily get sick. 5 years ago or few years ago, we still can eat whatever we want during CNY and too bad, don't you all dare to do the same thing again. The climate change is the indicator of how bad our environment has badly polluted. What we can do now is stay healthy, avoid outdoor activity if possible during sunny day and help to save environment by using less plastic bags and plant more trees.

New Supertall in KL?

I am pretty sure this news was quite shocking when everyone read about the news of 100-storey skyscrapers planned for Kuala Lumpur. What is in the mind of the government actually? According to the news, this project is part of the efforts to boost the country's gross domestic product. If this is true, Petronas Twin Towers will no longer be the country highest structure. There are three sites in the city have been identified for the development of the iconic tower and two of them appeared to have 100-storey each. Another news claimed that the construction will take place in the first quarter this year. Petronas Twin Towers has been the landmark of Malaysia for quite some time and if they want to build new building that could ruin the image of PTT, the new buildings must have something special and maybe to make sure new Malaysia landmark can carry the name of the country, why don't we rival the current tallest, Burj Khalifa?
