1Malaysia F1 Team

1Malaysia F1 car will be ready by end of this year and will have its first debut in Bahrain, March 2010. It will be a great opportunity to promote Malaysia and 'Barangan Buatan Malaysia". The whole 1Malaysia Team will be Malaysian even the drivers and the pit's team. This is for sure Malaysia Boleh spirit.

However, I am quite disappointed with our live telecast in the national TV. Few years back, all the races are shown live but now, I believe only Malaysian GP has Live showcase. It might be due to the low sponsorship but how many of us has the ability to own Astro? Delayed telecast is always not preferable as the race result will be out online as soon as the race ended and there will be no excitement of watching it anymore. Hence, F1 fans will become lesser and lesser.

If time is a problem as some Europe races will be held at midnight Malaysian time but who cares. Even MU, Chealsea, Arsenal fans can wake up to watch football match, why not F1 fans. This is the main point that we really need to look at. Even tonight race at Singapore GP will be delayed telecast according to the newspaper. What a dissapointment.

Busy and Tired

Although I had a very long weekend during the Hari Raya break but it turned out to be more tiring than normal days. Last Friday, I experienced my first time jammed in the North South Highway. It took me ridiculously 11 hours to reach Kelantan from KL. However, the traveling time can be reduced if my passenger was not car-sick.

Haha...Blame orang pulak, padahal driving skill tak bagus.
On my way back on Tuesday night, it took me another 8 hrs of suffering.

During the tiring journey, I heard a lot of advise or rule through radio saying that "Please do not park your car at the emergency lane". It actually got me confused. What is the main reason of having emergency lane? From what is know is for ambulance or fire brigade to pass through in case there is an emergency up front the road. However, if there is a car broke down, can he parks at the emergency lane or just leave it in the middle of the road? I believe almost 99% of drivers parking at the emergency lane are due to emergency issue. What they really need to advise is to ask those road rats to stay out of emergency lane. That is not their fast forward lane. Everyone is driving patiently in the jam and what gives them the priority to go faster? That really pissed me off...

Do you notice that the slow lane is actually empty from the taxi

Anyway, I had a good time at Kelantan. I went to my colleague's wedding and it was my first time I actually experience Malay wedding ceremony which was pretty simple compare to Chinese.

Happy Couple :-)

Besides that, I get to eat nasi kerabu, somtam, tomyam, daging goreng budhu, etc. Oishi oishi oishi... With all that in my stomach, haih... fat fat fat...

After enjoying all the nice foods, now need to be back to work. Currently, we have a few projects running at the same time and it has been a very busy week and the weeks to come. I hope that with all the tension and stress, it might actually burn some of my fat. Hahaha...
