Am always in support of local music. From Karen Kong to ZeroOrigin. Today would like to recommend a new artist which i feel is cool. Got to know about this rapper at meeting.

Analysis
Analysis......we have lots of that in today's meeting. We analyze the Input and Thruput trend. It seems like good news for us when we can show a higher input variance compared to the thruput variance. What does this mean? high input to customer and customer are unable to sell as much stock as we put in??? Is the market slowing down? But in Neilsen report shows that market share is increasing. How do we actually make use of all this data?
By showing the chart we know what has happen and what is the current trend. Am happy to be part of the team to see the trend and how to make full use of the trend. If thing goes well what did we do right and if thing goes wrong how to prevent it from happening again. Its the same with our life. We must from time to time ask ourself are we happy?. if not what is the thing that makes us not happy? how to prevent it from happening again. If we are happy, when can we repeat it again. How many people really do learn from their mistake? How many people are able to repeat the same thing they do that makes them happy and feel the same way? Guess not.
Maybe we should take sometime to analyse our life. What makes us happy and what will make us upset? It will be different from time to time. Same goes to the chart and trend that we analyse. The analysis can only help us in making desicion and not determind your desicion. It will show you what may or might happen and does not mean that it will happen. We need to cultivate new ideas in our plan to make it more realistic at that point of time.
Another day of thinking tomorrow......

Working Trip Back to Penang
'Great to be back' is the phrase that my senior will always use when he's presenting at his hometown Sarawak. As for me it was Feels good to be back at Penang. Last week as the greatest week i've had in a few months. I get to travel back to Penang for a week and to be with my friends and family. It was great although its for work purposes.
Was back at Penang for market work at Taiping and also the MAGGI Midi Launch. Was given a session on the launch day to present about the support we have behind Falvor World in the second half of the year. It really feels great to be presenting in front of familiar faces again and i really enjoyed presenting it. Athough many will tell me that it's not the same like last time since i left but for me the feel is still the same.
The warm welcome i recieve when i'm back there at the dealer and also during the launch really makes me miss the good old days. And to be able to have a drink or two with OAJ and team now was great. Did not have such fun for long long time. Although RACHEL Pub is no longer there and now the new hang out place is The Origin Restaurant just next to Rachel it still gives me the family feeling when i'm there. The drinking till late night and all the jokes we make during the drinking touches my heart and deep down inside i just wanted to go back.
The funny thing is that the swimming at 4am in the morning when all of us have to attend a function the next day was really funny. Hope to have the same fun with you guys again in the coming Nestle Roadshow this July. Adios....

MAGGI
MAGGI the brand. Everyone know about MAGGI noodles. Thats what i thought when i first join the MAGGI team. MAGGI Noodles is so well known till some Malaysian know instant noodles as MAGGI noodles.
It all changes when last month met a few dancers who dance at the Sales Convention at East Mal when they are on the flight back to KL. Just happen that we met them on the flight back to KL. Was introducing ourselves and few of the dancers recognize us as the night before some of us were pull by them to the dance floor. When we intro ourselves as MAGGI team, they do not know what MAGGI is??? huh???after some explanation then they only know we're from Nestle. There are still some people who spell MAGGI as maggie. gosh.....

We're so focus on our own category that we forgot about the Brand. So it's the CCSD job now to promote the brand as a trusted cooking aid Brand. When u thnk of cooking you'll think of maggi. Thats will be my vision and mission in Nestle.

My Room in Taman Megah, PJ
Finally after 3 months here in KL, i've move in to my rented house in Taman Megah, PJ. It's a 15 drive from my house to Nestle Office. Rented a double storey terrace, The master bedroom is kind of big and i just have a foldable bed and a small cupboard occupying the room. Went shopping for the past few week to fill up the house with furniture and bought most of it in Tesco and Giant. Nowadays there are so many DIY furniture that you can get very cheap.
Attended numerous House Warming party in the past few weeks. Lih Fen, Chee How and Puni all their new house have different furniture. It's time for me to study what to put in my new house also as i will be getting my house key next week.
Kitchen Cupboard will cost around RM2-10K and will only do minor renovation to my living room. TV Cabinet will cost around RM1k and sofa which i saw at Lih Fen house only cost around RM1k. Plasma TV and Home Theater at Chee How's House only cost RM2.4K. Rough idea on how much to spend on furniture.
As for my room in KL simple will do. i bought a coffee table, carpet, small cupboard and a clothes hanger. Guess will add a few of the big pillow to make it bit cozy. Luckily i got a Bathroom in my bedroom. More convenient.
I have a big living room and do not know what to do with it....totally empty. And suggestion to make the living room look more lively with minimal budget?

IGD 8th - 13th February 2009 - Kuala Lumpur
It's my first international training in Nestle, was very excited and at the same time tension as the feedback from seniors in Nestle is that this training isn't easy one. The story about previous training lasting till late night tell it all. IGD was previously call Marketing 1 and it's hard for one to get a chance to join the course. Lucky me that my boss ask me to attend the course when i'm only 3 months old in the Business Unit.
When the first day started i was very excited coz lots of new faces and also some of the people i know is there. We were placed in a group of 5 people. My group consist of me, Swee Rin who's from the same dept as i am in Malaysia, Vu a RSM from Vietnam, April Sales Manager from Philiphines and Joy a Brand Exec from Thailand. I would say that it's a combination of expertise from many angle. I&R, Brand, Sales and CCSD.
Our facilitator was Benard, Ian and Tim from Nestle SGDU and Mr.Khoo, Vela, Mr.Lim, Razlan and Don from Nestle Malaysia. The training was really a great learning from me who is still lost of direction in my new JD. It gives me a whole picture of the planning process and also where my job as a CCSD comes into the picture.
Dinner with the rest of the participant was great as we have to look for our own dinner. As a Malaysian of coz hospitality is a trademark of Malaysia. We brought them out for dinner. Old Town cafe was the first place we brought them. Then a a few of us went to a pub for a drink. Vu, Tomo from Japan and me we re enjoying a glass of beer then.
I really like the time when we are in the group discussion as all of us have different point of view in the discussion and everyone is trying to convince each other in the discussion. Guess that is the case when u have much of a diversity in a group. Everyone was trying to present their country best practice and of coz i won't want to lose out.
We had a few good presentation and a few bad ones and will learn from it. The finale was a great one as dinner was arrange at KL tower. Dinner was great and everyone started the craze of taking photo as the view was great. And maybe because the training is closing its curtain and everyone just misses the time we spend together. Tomo who was very quiet throughout the training was suddenly the center of attention when we're taking the photo. Not to forget Karl from Philipines sang us a song. It was great.
I was not able to join them for the after dinner celebration coz am going up to Genting with my GF the next day. Am planning to meet up with Ying and Mod from Thailand at Genting the next day. But too bad didn't get a chance to meet them there as we're staying at a different hotel at Genting. It was Valentine Day the next day and was great spending time with my GF family.
Will post some photo of the Seminar when i have them as the connection here is slow and unable to post them. It'll give you a better picture of the enjoyment we have in the Training and it was not as tedious as mentioned earlier as we have the tools to manage the business better now.

1st Day of Chinese 'Niu' Year
Today is the first day of the OX year. As usual lots of television program that talk about the zodiac sign. As for me the rooster, according to the TV it'll be a great year for finances and love. That's the 2 things that i need the most as i need the money to plan for my wedding.
Beside tht i find something different in the TV this year where they talk about the culture and also practices during CNY. Many things that they talk about is not practice by my family. For example 1st and 2nd day you must not wash your clothes as it will offend the God of Water. Sweeping the floor i know but washing clothes? another thing is that you cannot have your afternoon sleep and also parents must not wake their children up in the morning. Sleeping in the afternoon on the 1st and 2nd day of CNY will mean that you will become lazy.
On the first day of CNY you must open the front door and also your window and breath in. It's believe that you'll capture the water....which means luck. It's something which i feel must be practice to ensure that we capture the feng shui. I'm kind of a non believer in Feng Shui at first but now i believe that we need the chi in order to be successful. That is how the rich people stay rich. But in feng shui you must also be very careful of your surrounding as it might break your feng shui.
Will be moving to the new office soon and will have to study some feng shui in order to do better in my job. Stay at home whole day today as i do not want to visit my relative house this year coz it will be the same story of why still dun want to get married. Will do the same when i go back to KL tomorrow. Looking forward for some gambling though as i feel it's time for the whole family to sit down together and have a game of cards. Not that i like gambling but i like the atmosphere where the whole family is together.
TO ALL MY FRIENDS, HAPPY CHINESE 'NIU' YEAR.
May you have peace in your Heart,
Health in your Body,
Wealth in your Life,
and Joy in your Home.

January 2009
It's been a very very busy month. Dec 08 was full of holidays but January 09 was a bz month. Lots of meeting. Although it's been a busy month, it has been a great month. Everything went smoothly. Can feel myself settling down at HOU now and am happy to still keep in touch with my friends at the Branch.
CNY is coming and preparation has been moderation since i took a big paycut to join the team at HOU. Although i have higher basic pay but i've loss all my incentive. I have no time to blog as the connection at Klang is so slow. Will be moving to PJ soon. Will update more after CNY. Adios.

This wedding dinner is an special one i would say. There's lots of dancing throughout the dinner and everytime someone sings there will be people at the dance floor dancing. But most important thing is that all the old friends got to get together to celebrate our friend special occasion. Kinda miss AIESEC and all those meeting in UUM. It's nice to finally get to meet all of my friends and get some update from them. Congrats Shin. And thanks to Seok, Chah and Phui for sharing the pix.
