For those people who work late
A very considerate colleague of mine sent me this e-mail to remind me not to work late.
It's a story of a guy who worked late and something happened...
Here's the story:
Prior to joining a new company, this guy A was working at KL city.
In those tall building offices like KLCC and such, his office was quite high up the level at least 30 and above. Normally he will have to stay back for OT and in the evening, all the lifts will be stopped due to security reasons.
So whenever he wanted to leave, he will need to call the old security ah pek to activate the lift from ground floor to his level, then the uncle will send the lift up...
After sometime, he left the company and joined another place where his office also very high up in the building. Hence if he needs to do OT, also need to call security ah pek to send lift up.
Then it came the day that he's working OT for the first time at the new place. He stayed back till 12am plus and when he's about to leave, he called the security ah pek to send the lift up. After packing up he went to the lobby to wait for the lift.
He waited and waited. 10 minutes passed, Lift not up. He waited for another 10 minutes and called the security ah pek. S denotes security here.
A: Hello ah pek ah, have you send the lift up?
S: Yeah sent liao ma.
A: No leh I been waiting for 20 minutes liao leh.
S: No meh? Okie okie I send again.
Another 5 minutes went by. No lift came up. The guy got worried. He's the last person to leave and there's no one around. He called the ah pek on his handphone again.
A: Er... Ah pek ah, you sure you sent the lift up?
S: Yeah I sent it up twice liao leh.
A: But I saw the lifts all on the first floor leh!
S: Aiyoh. Never mind. I take the lift up and look for you.
Again, A waited. 5 minutes passed but none of the lift are moving. Then suddenly, his handphone rang. The ah pek voice was on the other side of the line sounding very weird.
S: CCB Where are you? ! I am here. But I cannot find you.
All this while A was staring at the display of the lifts. All at level 1... and the ah pek is here... shit something is not right.
A straight away chiong to the stairs and ran down the building...
When he reached ground level, he chiong to the security counter and he found out that...
He had actually called the old security ah pek in the building of his ex-company and not the security ah pek of his new office -_- He work till siao liao and was damn blur.
Feeling very pai seh, he also never call back to explain to the security ah pek from the building of his ex-company.
Poor ah pek. He must be the one who actually freaked out going all the way up and saw no one there...
Moral of the story: Don't work till becoming like sotong....

DYTM Raja Puan Muda Lailatul Shahreen Bougainvilla Garden
Yes, this is the garden's name which is situated in Kangar, Perlis.
DYTM Raja Puan Muda Lailatul Shahreen Bougainvillea Garden.
Built by Majlis Perbandaran Kangar (MPK), this garden probably has one of the longest garden name in Malaysia. Obviously, it's name after DYTM Raja Puan Muda Lailatul Shahreen (I hope I get the name right).
Lots of different species of bougainvilleas in the garden. I don't know how to differentiate the species of bougainvilleas but I only know how to differentiate it by the colors.
Bougainvillea is a type of flower which can be commonly found in Malaysia, the texture of the flower is similar to paper so sometimes its called "paper flower".
The garden is well designed and constructed to provide a good hang out spot and exercise spot for the Perlis people.
It was built at a hillside and there is a small cave called Cenderawasih Cave situated beside the garden.
Nothing special about the cave though except for some smelly bats' shit.
The stairs was officially opened by the ex Chief Minister of Perlis, Y.A.B. Dato' Seri Shahidan Bin Kassim SPMP. AMP.
Luckily they didn't name the stairs after him or else the stairs' name would be "Y.A.B. Dato' Seri Shahidan Bin Kassim SPMP. AMP. Stairs to Hilltop for a Bird's Eye View of the Kangar Town"
Just beside the stairs to hilltop there is something like a monument.
The monument was so badly vendalised until I cannot recognise what is that monument for. Inside the monument there is a metal plate with lots of Perlis royal family names written on it so I assume it was meant to be a royal family tree monument or something like that.
Some vandals who are being disrespectful of the royal family wrote some stupid stuff on the plate like: Ali love Ayu forever and ever.
I don't think the royal family will be happy to see this in their family tree.
The monument's pond was also a mess with lots of garbage and stagnant water in it.
The garden is actually a nice place to be if it can be restored back to its original state.
The MPK should do something about this and the education department should do something to really discard the evil mindset of vendalism out of our Malaysian society.

Mini Putrajaya
Guess where is this place?
Looks like Putrajaya right?
It's actually the Kompleks Dewan Undangan Negeri Perlis, no idea what's that, I think it's something like the parliament for Perlis government. I am not into politics, so don't blame me for not knowing this.
Until today I still cannot believe this huge and beautiful building is in Perlis, one of the smallest state in Malaysia.
It does looks fantastic.
But makes me wonder, do they really need such a big place to govern the whole Perlis? Perlis is just a very small state nia ma...
I hope they make goods use of this building and turn Perlis into the best place to live in Malaysia.
