The Star of UAE

While all eyes are still focused on our celebrity US President-Barack Obama, a round applause should be given to His Highness General Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Crown Prince of Dubai, UAE.

As of what made the Dubai Ruler hero of the day in this tiny lil' blogspace here will be very much justified by his following achievements:

1. He's the Ruler, Prime Minister, entrepreneur, & developer-king of Dubai UAE.
2. He turned the Arab land into a world financial capital, comparable to London & New York City in terms of standard of living/networth.
3. He broke taboos by criticizing who “sit around waiting, praising our glorious past and blaming others for our failures and problems.” - source
4. His proven management strategies by electing the State's 4 top advisers (the so-called 4 horsemen) as leaders of the State's leading companies & forcing them to compete against each other, increasing the overall productivity in the State leading to the constrction of world tallest skyscraper.
5. Forging diplomatic relationships with other renowned country leaders, along with official & unofficial visits to the respective countries.
6. Developing Dubai's world-beating buildings where all other nations should be jealous of( Burj Al-Arab, Palm Islands, Ski Dubai, Burj Tower, Hydropolis), which I'm certain that China will come up with something to counter such sentiment.
7. Lastly, he tweets!

And now, the unexpected big bad debt Dubai is facing due to '07 economy crisis will be yet another great challenge to test his capabilities. As of what he indicated to the press "By that standard, the State's prosperity & extraordinary record of peace and stability are far more important than a few billion dollars of bad debt".

Malaysia Boleh — can we achieve the 2020 Vision in just another 11 years' grace period? That's something I'll like to see in the future.

jiwang 'bout Everything

If there's an artist that's better than JayChou, it'll definitely be LeeHom.
Some of you peeple might not agree with me, esp Jay's fanatic fans.
:P
Okay, I admit that I dont really like JayChou, no particular reason ... just dont like.
Stil, LeeHom's works are much more original & sentimental if you make a comparison with others.
After a year long ... finally, he releases his new album - Heartbeat (心跳).

Tho I could have done without some of these tracks, there are a lot of winners on this album, esp 心跳 ( love ballad r&b) and Everything ( I was immediately drawn to this song when I listened to it in Youtube). 想给你Everything,不管用多少个明天 永远从此刻开始算起;你的爱是我的Everything~



A lil' bit of biography on LeeHom found in Wikipedia:
"Alexander Lee-Hom Wang was born in Rochester, New York, the second among 3 sons. At the age of six, Wang began to take violin lessons. He attended Jefferson Road Elementary School, Pittsford Middle School, then Pittsford Sutherland High School in the town of Pittsford. He graduated from Pittsford Sutherland with high honors and as class valedictorian. He chose to attend Williams College, where he graduated with honors, majoring in music and minoring in Asian Studies.
He is also an environmental activist, and was invited to be one of the first torchbearers for the Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics, carrying the torch in Olympia, Greece on March 24, 2008. He was also invited to perform in the closing ceremonies."

Nth much happened today
Another boring weekend
Spent half of my day with the STAR (sit there and rot) Program at my computer desk.
Haihzzz, I'm too bloody free in Muar ...
Slept at 5 and wokeup at 10 to have dinner.
Then suddenly feel jiwang =_="
siau!
haha, I guess the song's taking its effect on me.

There's this by-election goin on in my country. Well, I'm not really interested in politics so basically I dont give a damn. This country doesnt help me much, I'll just be frank here. So why bother...
Putting too many expectations on something, be it your life or others, isn't gonna work.
If you know what I mean :)
Alwayz keep in mind the proud quote of Winston Churchill, which you can find on my blog header.

At times, we care too much 'bout ourselves, everything & everyshit for personal benefit/pleasure ... do spare some thoughts for those around us, and we might be happier at the end of the day.

Dear beloved Israel & Palestine armed forces, pls, just die, the both of you. Yes, the world will indeed be happier if you guys do so.

Gosh, I tink I blog too much lately
Breakin' the habit soon ...

The Dark Knight

The easiest way to describe it : "walao eh, so dem geng lah".

Trust me, this movie is surely worth the watch. it might be a lil' lengthy at the beginning but the storyline is real firepower with a twist too !!!
Well, managed to watch its premier tday in TGV Kinta City together with Beh, Joel, and ahhung. We watched red cliff too - sort of John Woo big production.

joel's quote 'bout The Dark Knight: "i tink is one of the best summer film of the year la..."

*p/s: damn i love Joker. Wayyyy too cool !!! (watch it & u'll noe)

Sky of Love (2007)

__________________________________________________________________


Watched the movie Koizora (sky of love) yesterday and i must say its a definite touching teenage love story starring Yui Aragaki and Haruma Miura. In a few short and vague words, “Sky of Love” is about a young girl falling in love for the first time, vowed not to fall in love again, and found courage to love someone forever. The climax of the movie would be the 2 Christmas eve nights, where Mika learned the depths Hiro would go just for the happiness of her ...

For those who adore love story, watch it, and u'll know y it was the no.1 top movie in S'pore last year.

"This drama focuses on the earlier days of the legendary Yang Clan when most of them were not yet soldiers. It tells of how their parents, their enemies, and the women they loved shaped their characters, influenced their lives, and motivated them to become the patriotic warriors their clan is revered for." - http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Shao_Nian_Yang_Jia_Jiang (check it out)
