As usual, every year around this time of the year, there will be a bridal fair. The previous 2 bridal fairs were held at Crowne Square, Pending. This year, they switched to Old Court House. The setting is odd. It’s not a very good location at least for me. It’s not easy to find parking. Today 3pm was the opening ceremony but I didn’t stay for it. They talked too much for the speech. Boring~~ Raining summore so left after simply took some photos.
There you go…. Our very own Sarawak Bridal Fair. It’s from 23rd-25th March, 10am-10pm.
BTS 2007
BTS(Building Trade Show) is here, 22nd March-25the March, 5th Floor, Permata Carpark. Thought of going there for a visit to cover the event but who knows the environment was so unwelcoming.
See the photo, you will know what I mean. The 2 security guards sitting there and on the right(not in the photo) is the registration counter. There’s a sign put up asking visitor to register for lucky draw before going in. I don’t think it’s that simple. So unwelcoming! Why must register for lucky draw? Not everyone wants to participate in it. Why force people to register, not everyone wants to give you their details! What is there so important in there that everyone must give their details before entering? What do you have in there? People want to rob you off your building materials? Or to avoid petty crimes like pick pockets?
I know BTS always have lucky draw for visitors and all these while it’s optional. I took part in it everytime and never win anything. Now it’s compulsary for those that go in. Summore placing 2 security guards there is making the atmosphere so tense! Not only that, the registration counter felt too formal. It’s deterring people from going in for a visit. We were so turn off by it and left without going in.
Blogger Power To Protect Kids
Actually got this from Lilian asking us to pass it on. I haven’t have the time to do it so drag until now. Then Jazzmint tagged me with it again. Since I’m still not in the mood to blog, actually is I don’t have time to edit those photos yet. So might as well do this first. Let’s protect the children from pornography!
What is it?
If you are a blogger, post the common sense request to all the “adult site†webmasters on your site. You can either write your own article about it, or simply copy-paste our letter:
Please require a password-protected login before allowing even free access to explicit adult content. We understand that selling porn is your business and we respect your right to make a legal living. But understand our legitimate concerns and work with us. You already have the “warning adult content†on your websites. Yet kids, who are not legal customers of your product, ignore the warning. So to prevent them from having direct access to explicit images, texts and sounds, the simplest way is to have a password-protected login. No more “free tours†before a visitor supplies basic information.When you are done, write a short email to bloggerpower@yahoo.com and supply the exact link to that entry. We will link to you from the BLOGGERS page. You don’t need to link to us if you don’t want to! But we need to make a list of all those entries at the end of this call to action. We need to do it to show it to the offline media how far the blogging community is ready to go to protect the interest of the children. We need to do it to show it to the politicians that the public opinion requests measures.
OK! Done! Who should I tag? Hmm… Anyone… Anyone that reads my blog that has a blog. Do something to protect our future generation. Go! Go! Go!

8 Falls
WOW! I can’t help it but I must blog about it! Even I’m busy, die die I must blog about it. It’s not something you can see everyday.
8 accidents, 8 motorbikes, 8 slips, more than a dozen victims. Too bad, I only managed to take photo of the last slip that involved a family of three, the little girl was sandwiched in between her parents without a helmet and the accident happened. Goshh… So scary! Luckily only light injuries to the three of them.
Don’t know why and when oil spilt on the road. It was slippery and those riders that didn’t realised it all fell to the ground and suffered scratches, bruises and damages to their bikes. It was rush hour summore which is a good thing because if it’s not due to those jam, the cars would be in higher speed and might cause much worst accidents. My mom saw all 8 of them. I only saw the the last 5 and only remembered to get my camera after the 7th fall. “Luckily” there’s a last fall coming else there will be no photo to show you.
After so many falls, people nearby called the fire station. The fire station from Padungan despatched a fire engine to clean the road. Detergent was used to clean the oil spill.
The end. Back to work.
