Leadership

"If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader." - By John Quincy Adams

Leader is the one who provide inspiration and motivation for others to do their best. So, for me as the father is to guide my child to explore her full potential and to optimise her truth.

Good Sign

I am impressed with the clear and precise signage showing the direction for people with disabilities in a shopping complex. This is commendable as many of such signs were placed in not visible area or disconnected.

We should encourage others to emulate.

Me in 2005, pretty fit and "slim" at that time. It is always good to keep the good memory of yesteryears. Perhaps it is time now to work on the weight.

Appreciation

After serving the Lions Clubs International District 308B1, Malaysia for a year on promoting environmental conservation promotion, awareness and education campaign, I was presented the International President's Certificate and DG Gold Award by District Governor, Ln Datuk Danny Ooi for the works well done. It was such a fruitful year for me as I was able to see many of the Clubs and lions members undertake environmental-related projects. These range from cleanliness, trees planting, recycling, talks and exhibitions.

One of the many projects that satisfied me the most must be the record breaking Beverage Packets Recycling Campaign. Within a month, a total of 287,993 drinking packets was collected in which about 18% are contributed by lions. Kudos

Xin En

My girl at the play land of a restaurant in SS2 last two week. She was happy with the food, toy and play equipment --- a feet that enjoyed by most of the children at her age.

My Teacher

After almost 35 years, I met with my primary school teacher, Mr Lee Choon Meng at a Lions function recently. The meeting was possible when my Lions Club has dealing with the Home for Angels in Bandar Sungai Long. The Home was founded and managed by Ms Lee Tee Xin, daughter of my teacher and also my classmate in the Secondary School of Raub, Pahang.

My Club's involvement with the Home was pure coincident. I was reading a press report on the Home one day and noticed that Ms Lee might be my classmate. Upon calling and confirmed with her, My Club has decided to adopt the Home. Numerous activities were carried out such as welfare assistance, children outings, sponsorship of education aids, providing legal aids and constant visitation. The journey of cooperation started from there which led to the meeting between myself and Mr Lee.

I wish my teacher good health and ever happy. Cheers

My girl is smiling whenever she has the chance to go outdoor or to mingle with others. Perhaps this is the occasion she is looking forward every week. I am sorry for spending little time for her during working days. Only weekend without any programme that I have chance to bring her around. Last Saturday, we were in KLCC and have taken some picture in front of the F1 race car.

Happy Chinese New Year

Dear Friends,

Wishing everyone

A Happy and Prosperous Chinese "Tiger" New Year.

Gong Xi Gong Xi.

From lih shyan and family

Happy New Year 2010

Happy New Year 2010...

Appetite

My girl and mom in a wedding reception at Triang, Pahang recently. Only at this function that I came across of my girl having a good appetite on food. At home, she only take rice.

Recycling Practice

I noticed these when attending a wedding reception in Triang, Pahang recently. The restaurant owner practices recycling in daily operation. I thought this is good practice for promotion when it comes to 3R. While photo on the left shows that bottle was used to cover the sauce container from flies, the right one shows the wine carton was cut to half as ash tray.

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.
