There's hope for more broadband in Malaysia..

JARING recently launched its ADSL service rivaling the old taiko Streamyx. Actually they launched this service quite some time back and plenty of grouses heard among many Malaysians of its almost "hideously" expensive service and equipment. But fret not, it was a premium service of ADSL with VoIP.

The new package, http://www.jaring.my/broadband/index_business.html?cont=flite_package, is much more affordable and mind you they're giving away free ADSL modems during the promotional period! Great ain't it! This is another classic case of David vs. Goliath but by putting the right strategy, I believe JARING will prevail. I hope they do.

On the VoIP concern, VoIP calls result in great call savings due to its nature of going over IP instead of the more common fixed line. Good news isn't it? But unfortunately, due to the brilliance of our regulatory and the local telcos, adoption of new technologies are pretty slow with these people are more concern about themselves than making Malaysia a better nation. Welll...This is a country where the broadband penetration is at sluggish 1% eventhough we started broadband earlier than South Korea. All thanks to the MCMC.

BTW, you can check out other JARING offerings here, http://www.jaring.my/index.html. You could be forgiven if you think I'm a staunch JARING supporter. YES, I am. The least I want to see in Malaysia is TMNet monopolizing the market. They have almost absolute share of the fixed line market to the extent that they have the prerogative power to service which area they want to! That is certainly not good for the people, and Malaysia as a whole.

I'm calling my fellow Malaysians to support JARING for a better Broadband coverage in Malaysia.

JARING, you have every bit of my good luck wishes.

I need you babe...

Babe...I was listening to this song and then you dance in my mind...LOVELY.

Penny lover, don't walk on by
Penny lover, don't you make me cry
Can't you see girl, who my heart's beating for
You're the only girl that I adore

The first time I saw you
Oh, you looked so fine
And I had a feeling
One day you'd be mine
Honey you came along and captured my heart
Now my love is somewhere lost in your kiss
When I'm all alone it's you that I miss
Girl a love like yours is hard to resist
Oh, Oh, Ooh, Ooh, Oh

Penny lover, my love's on fire
Penny lover, you're my one desire
Tell me baby could this be true
That I could need someone, like I need you

Nights warm and tender
Lying next to you
Girl I surrender
Oh, what more can I do
I've spent all of my life in search of your love
Now there's one more thing I'd like to say
Don't you ever take your sweet love away
Girl I'll do anything, just please stay
Oh, Oh

I don't understand it,
Oh what's come over me
But I'm not gonna worry, no not anymore
'Cause when a man's in love, he's only got one story
That's why my love is somewhere lost in your kiss
When I'm lost and alone it's you that I miss
With a love like yours, it's hard to resist
Ooh, Ooh, Oh

Penny lover, don't you walk on by (don't you walk on by)
Penny lover, don't you make me cry (don't you make me cry baby)
Penny lover, don't you walk on by (don't you walk on by)
Penny lover, don't you make me cry (Oh penny baby)
Penny lover, don't you walk on by (don't you walk on by)
I remember the first time I saw you baby
Penny lover, don't you make me cry
You had the look in your eye, you had the look in your eye, Yeah, Yeah
Ooh pretty baby
I just wanted to reachout and touch you baby
I just want to reach out and hold ya, I want to reach out and say Ooh, Ooh
Don't make me cry
I wanna talk about you everyday (Penny lover)
Need you, need you baby ...

2 sendok teh telefon2an, SMS
Semuanya dikacau hingga merata dan mengembang.

Tips:
Pilih lelaki dan wanita yang benar-benar matang dan seimbang. Jangan yang satu terlalu tua dan yang lainnya terlalu muda kerana dapat mempengaruhi kelazatan (sebaiknya dibeli di supermarket bernama TEMPAT IBADAH atau TEMPAT KERJA, walaupun agak jual mahal tapi mutunya terjamin.) Jangan beli di pasar yang bernama DISKO atau PARTY kerana walaupun modelnya bagus dan harum baunya tapi kadang menipu konsumer atau kadang menggunakan zat pewarna yang boleh merosak kesihatan. Gunakan Kasih sayang cap "IMAN, HARAP & KASIH" yang telah mendapatkan penghargaan ISO dari Jabatan Kesihatan dan Kerohanian.

Cara Memasak:
Lelaki dan Wanita dicuci bersih, buang semua masa lampaunya sehingga tersisa niat yang murni. Siapkan bekas yang telah digaul dengan komitmen dan restu orang tua secara merata.

Kuih ini dapat dinikmati oleh pembuatnya seumur hidup dan paling enak dinikmati dalam keadaan kasih yang hangat. Tapi kalau sudah agak dingin, Tambahkan lagi humor segar secukupnya, rekreasi sesuai selera, serta beberapa potong doa kemudian dihangatkan lagi di oven "Tempat Ibadah" marak diatas api cinta. Setelah mulai hangat, jangan lupa telefon2an bila berjauhan.

You'll Never Walk Alone II

What a weekend that was vs. Blackburn. We won only after making lives difficult ourselves. IT's true that we never had good results against them in recent years, but mostly its because of our owndoing.

My summary of our main strikers,
1) We need Cisse. Yes, he missed host of chances especially all the wide headers.But, we always looked dangerous with him around. His presence alone get the opposing defenders away from our other players and that create spaces for other.

2) Crouch, am getting irritatingly dissapointed with him - for not creating enough chances nor dangerous enough in the 6 yard box. Hey, we might as well stucked with Heskey if we want him to linger in the center!

3) Morientes, or as he affectionately known as Moro, was a pale shadow of himself. Sorely lacking match fitness. In one instance, he could have easily poked in the ball into the goal than missing it after the goalkeeper had spilled riise's shot.

So...take your pick. I'll stick with Cisse, then choose his partner: Crouch or Moro.

Ready to take a chance with you babe...

"Thanks babe", it means the world to me. It's for that someone who make me realise there's much more happiness in this world for me.

Babe, I'll take my time exploring you. Let's take one step at a time. Let's do it on our terms. I want us to realise we being together for wanting to be together - not for filling up empty spaces in our hearts, not for mere company for being lonely.

This song for you babe...

You remind me I live in a shell,
Safe from the past,and doing' okay,but not very well.
No jolts, no surprises,
No crisis arises,
My life goes along as it should,
it's all very nice,but not very good.
And I'm Ready To Take A Chance Again,
Ready to put my love on the line with you.
Been living with nothing to show for it,
You get what you get when you go for it,
And I'm Ready To Take Chance Again with you.
When she left me in all my despair,
I just held on,My hopes were all gone.
Then I found you there.
And I'm Ready To Take A Chance Again
Ready To Take A Chance Again with you, With you.

Babe...I want you. And am ready to take a chance with you.
