I saw this fruit or plant called Buddha's palm when I visited my uncle's house during Chinese New Year. Notice there are many finger-like projections. The belief is that the fingers will grasp prosperity for the owner while the other fruit will hold tight to what wealth you already possess.

It's so important for us be around people who will stir up greatness within us. Find people with God-inspired dreams; people who will build you up and celebrate your victories with you.

Jeweller Chow Tai Fook listed on the HKSE two weeks ago. It has a market capitalization of US$20 billion or HK$140 billion. It has over 1,500 points of sale in China.

“God’s gifts and his call are irrevocable”(Romans 11:29, NIV)No matter where you’ve been, no matter what you’ve done, realize today that your destiny supersedes your mistakes. When God designed the plan for your life, it wasn’t dependent on you being perfect, never making a mistake, or never taking a wrong turn. No, God knew we would all make mistakes. He knows how to get you back on track no

Are you down on yourself today because of past mistakes you’ve made or because you’re not where you want to be in life? God knows every poor choice, every difficulty, every wrong turn you may have made, and He’s already planned your comeback! In scripture, Jonah took a detour, so to speak. It took him a little bit longer, but because he called out to God, because he believed, God not only rescued

I have met many Christian friends who says God put us together etc to help me but most turn out to be disappointing. I met a dear friend recently and he has always been helpful through thick and thin.

Business should be a long term view. There are some who will help you with no expectation of anything in return. There are those who will run with you a mile, some ten miles while some like Mr.Hsueh all the way.

New Zealand has rye grass which grows like weed. The cows eat this grass so it is important to manage the soil and grass. Soil needs two things - phosphate and urea so fertilizers are given. Grass if grows too long ie. after 3rd leaf shoot will make the first leaf go dry and accumulate fungus which the cows hate. So if too long the farmers will cut it and accumulate the grass for the cows to eat

In Malaysia we are still debating whether to implement hudud laws.

You may not have heard of LEGEND beer but may be more familiar with Starker beer sold in Overtime outlets in Sunway Giza, Life Center, 1 Mont Kiara etc. Well, Legend is brewed by the same brewery as Starker. I bought 2 cases to try and find it quite good. However, the price differential from Tiger and Carlsberg is marginal so I dont think in the long run I will keep buying it.

I took this photo from the balcony of my apartment. The pool at Level 3A is 40 meters.For those who do not understand Chinese beliefs, why Level 4 is always renamed Level 3A is because 4 sounds similar to DEATH in Chinese especially Cantonese. So if it is level 4 there will be no buyers for units at level 4 :-(.This pool is rather cold as it is on Level 3A and has no earth heat.
