    From google reader, the photos sal seafood paradise but on your blog, japanese food. Cana boleh atu?

    That link is interesting. For new grads, it's a good place to develop and work. For mature hire, it depends on u r reason of joining but it's still a good place to work especially on the technical side. That guy probably too tired of listening too much BS everyday.

    Checked out the interesting site as mentioned and I don't know about you, but this person is either one of those super smart professional who can really deliver brilliant results and thus expects nothing less than perfection in the company he/she works with OR he is just an unrealistic dreamer...Interesting read though.

    Need to go to Excapade soon, those salmon sashimi is calling...

    Jewelle, you'll just have to ask my boss and my colleagues which one I am. Nothing is unrealistic, except that we are conditioned by our environment to think it is so. If we think it is unrealistic, we'll always take a defeatist view of life. If we do that, we might as well say Brunei will never improve and will always be like this. I simply choose not to do so. I'll rather be an unrealistic dreamer who try to reach for those stars than never try, trapped by our own mindset of 'this is not possible'.

    That's a little more of an idealist me think .... but in real world we need to take things in a more realistic perspective. The reason being ... humans are imperfect.

    You can name and learn in any schools of thoughts but life is so full of imperfections, so are the ways we conditioned ours ... unfortunately ... basic rules of survival ... maybe ...

Body scrub, Brunei Stylie...

Attended a friend's bedak mandi (pre-wedding ceremony which involves a blessing by close family elders and a cleansing body-scrub) ceremony this afternoon and it brought back memories of my own bedak mandi all those years ago. What fun, a free body scrub performed by several family members, watched by even more family members! More pics here . Short rant: During the Microsoft Vista launch , both of us went in "business attire" as stated in the invitation. While trying to photograph the guest of honour, I was approached by one of the more seasoned photographers who asked me where I was from. I said I was an invited guest who happened to bring my camera. This is what he said to me, "Mana baju kot mu? Kalau jemputan duduk saja. Kalau mau buleh pulang ku panggil AO ni untuk membawa kau keluar." Yes, very Bruneian indeed matey. You could have just told me that its a requirement for photographers to wear a suit in the presence of royalty. No need to bite my head of...

Hadrah

... In the past, hadrah was only performed during weddings, but now it is performed in open events, to greet honoured guests and more significantly to signal the arrival of His Majesty in various events... ... Brunei youths nowadays have done well in preserving the heritage and have even enhanced it. Back then, competition involved only beating of drums and chanting. But now performances are choreographed to make it more attractive and interesting... ... hadrah could be further promoted in Brunei if there is a national association of hadrah set up. "We have a national team for silat and gasing (top spinning), but not for hadrah. We cannot just rely on mukim and schools to promote the activity, it has to be done at a national level... -- The Brunei Times
