I was searching for an architect to design my future house (in my dream)… My ideal architect must have the following criteria before he/she will be hired:-

1. Must be a local grown architect and speaks Hokkien, like my dad;

2. Always striving to be better than the rest, like Singaporean;

3. Never ending effort to improve, like Japanese;

4. Most importantly, must be able to build rapport with me.

And yes, I found the right person !! How? Use Google laaa…

Mr. Laurent Lim, will be the right person to design my dream house…

The company’s philosophy are:-

Kamcheng – word originating from Penang Hokkien, meaning “the fine art of harmonious rapport and good networking with clients, authorities and associates/ consultants in general”.

Kiasu – colloquial Singapore Hokkien term, meaning “the state of mind to work hard and great determination to succeed”.

Kaizen – Of Japanese origin, meaning “to be constantly one’s skill and services and strive for innovative and creative solution to serve client’s needs”

—————————————————————————————-

Lesson we can learn:- Kamcheng and Kaizen are virtues. Kiasu is good too as long as it is not based on the spirit of covetousness and at the expense of others!

Last week, we found out how Beijing Olympic 2008 was designed. Now, have you ever wondered why bras are lettered A, B, C … all the way to H? And do you know how the letters are actually used to define bra sizes?

Thank you, SL for “educating” me and make my day!!

Could this be true? It all began with Capital Punishment…

I did a small research on capital punishment and I wasn’t surprised with the joke. Ohhh… please don’t tell me you take it as real. If you have watch enough CSI, you know it can’t be real..hahaha. Anyway, going back to capital punishment, in 2007 the largest number of verifiable executions were carried out in the six countries listed below (note though that with the exception of the US, the figures for other countries are believed to be under-estimates):

*Based on publicly available reports. Other sources suggest the real tally in China for example maybe as high as 6000.

So behave yourself, boy when you are in Beijing for Olympic 2008. However, if you want to be nasty please check what carry the capital punishment in China. You don’t want to be the next logo for …ermmm…..next Winter Olympic if China is hosting it..haha!

Moral of this post:-

“All parts of the body which have a function if used in moderation and exercised in labors in which each is accustomed, become thereby healthy, well developed and age more slowly, but if unused they become liable to disease, defective in growth and age quickly.”
