In my early years of working, I learned much from the Motorola Supplier Programme, I think they have done pretty well in sharing knowledge with their suppliers. Well done Motoroala! :-)

Bye bye Sunny, i forgot to take a picture together with you..... :-(

We decided not to know the gender and our doctor asked u to inform him each time seeing him. Anyway, last night, we went to Anakku's 70% Clearence Sales (which ends on 31 March), we found out it is easier to shop if you know if it is a girl or a boy. Maybe next scan we will ask for the gender. :-)

The baby was moving quite a lot too, I don't have a mini dv cam yet so could not take it down :-)

Thank God in advance for the early blessing of 2007 :-)

It is commonly said that the common name 'Koala' is an Aboriginal word meaning "no drink." The Koala actually does drink water, but only rarely, due to its diet consisting of eucalyptus leaves, which contain sufficient water to obviate the need for the Koala to climb down for a drink. -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koala

Good turnout at Matta fair

BY PRISCILLA DIELENBERG

Thousands of people thronged the Penang International Sports Arena (PISA) here yesterday for the Penang Matta Fair 2006.  

The early birds started streaming into PISA as soon as the doors opened at 10am to seek attractive travel packages at bargain prices. 

Among them were engineer couple Sia Ket Chiew, 30, and Chong Yip Wee, 26, who brought along their one-year-old son Jiet Zhu. 

“Two years ago, we bought our honeymoon package at the Penang Matta Fair and now we are looking for a good deal for our second honeymoon,” said Chong. 

“We are thinking of either Jiu Zhai Gou in China or Seoul and Cheju Island in Korea. We have heard about the beautiful scenery at the Jiu Zhai Gou forest reserve, and Korea is quite popular right now,” she added. 

About50,000 people are expected to visit the three-day fair which ends today. It is open from 10am to 9pm. 

One of the first-time exhibitors at this year’s fair is Tourism Australia. Its Industry Servicing manager (Malaysia) Elaine Leong said they were regulars at the Matta fair in Kuala Lumpur but wanted to seek more input about the Penang consumer market. 

Visitors who buy packages also stand chances of winning prizes offered by some exhi-bitors during lucky draws held at intervals during the day. 

Among the prizes include US$200 (RM740) crystal blocks featuring the image of actor Bae Yong Joon, the star of the Winter Sonata television series. Two of these decorative pieces were put up by Korean Air for those who purchase its packages. 

Fair organising chairman Ann Tan said the grand draw for those with admission tickets, which would be held at 8pm today, features hotel stay and air tickets as prizes. 

She said there were a total of 280 booths offering travel packages, hotel accommodation, air tickets, and items such as cameras, travel bags and winter clothing. 

Admission to the fair is RM2 per adult, inclusive of a goody bag while stocks last. Entrance for children under 12 is free. The entertainment programme includes dances and Korean cultural shows.
