Not at Home

My girl was without her grandma for the last few days. My mom went to Guangzhou for a tour. Instead of missing my mom's presence and getting closer to me and my wife, she does not care much. She found new ventures with her cousin. She decided to stay at her auntie's house tonight. Well, she is only 3 years old.

Dispenser with Time

I noticed this dispenser in the toilet. It is dispensing the perfume to get rid of the odours. What amaze me is the time shown on the screen. I wonder what the purpose of having the timing. Is that for supervisor to monitor the frequency of dispensing the gas? Is that for patrons to look at the time? I cannot figure out the purpose and thought this might be unnecessary feature.

Chopstick?

I found this at a souvenir shop. I thought it is interesting as many might have thought the chopstick, the spoon, the bowl and the holder are meant for dining only. Creativity prevail. A combination of these made the presentation of gift showing Chinese culture in food a good one, I presume.

Pledge A Tree

In celebrating the 2009 World Town Planning Day, I pledged and planted a tree at the Cyberjaya Urban Forest Park. To be exact, the location of the tree is at N 02.56.318 and E 101.39.490 with elevation at +50 meter. Thank you for the advancement of GPS. I am now able to monitor my contribution geographically and visually.

Eco Handicraft

These are handicraft and souvenirs made from recycling paper such as newspaper, magazine and cardboard. I found these so interesting, and more importantly environmental friendly. The items are made by women group during their spare time together. The effort has also brought in financial return to them. Starting as a gesture for 3R, the program has developed into an income generation venture. I presume, this is a truly community sustainable initiative in practice.

Waste

I am not talking about the unfinished food on the table, but rather the cups, plates, containers, forks, spoons and any utensils you name it. These are items made of polystyrene. What make me sad is these were widely used for serving during an open house celebration by a supposedly high environmental conscious organisation recently. Well, corporate social responsibility towards environmental stewardship is not a slogan, but a doing.
