23.05.2009 - CrossXRoad Music Launching
A group of youth from Sepang CMC who are gifted in music has formed a music ministry band called “Cross Road Music”. They were launching their very first album and I was invited to shoot their event. Initially, I couldn’t make it because my ACCA convocation was on the same day as well. But Brother Siou Bin called me the day before the launch and asked again for my help. He asked me to try my best to reach there A.S.A.P as the event starts at 2pm sharp. I didn’t reject his offer because of flexibility of time since he didn’t ask me to reach there on time.
After my convocation, I rush to Wisma Methodist for the event and it’s 2:45pm. Luckily I only missed some part of the event.
After the event, Bro Seou Bin handed their CD album to me as an appreciation. Well, frankly speaking I do like their album after listen to it. Congratulation again to Cross Road Music and May God bless you all. Share some of my shots.

23.05.2009 - My ACCA Convocation
After 7 years of hardwork on my ACCA professional certificate, it’s time to write a full stop on it. Today is my ACCA convocation and all of us i.e. Tan’s family & I have been waited this day for so long. It’s such a wonderful & memorable day, where I can see my mum & dad laugh happily seeing their son standing on the stage, receiving the scroll from Dato’ Dr. Halim Harun, Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of UMW Holding Berhad. It’s an archievement and a recognition for me and my family.
I would really want to take this opportunity to thank my family i.e. my dad & mum for their supports. I remember I have failed 3 papers in my very first ACCA exam, I cried because it’s unexpected result and I wanted to give up. But my mum encourage me not to give up because she believes I would have a bright future when I have the cert because she cares my future. My dad has provide me financially support. Whenever I failed my paper, I feel guilty because I would need another sum of money from him to do a resit. I was afraid to tell him the fact because I do scare he will scold me with high tune but he didn’t scold me at the end yet encourage me to do better next round. I feel even more guilty! :-D Thanks Lord for giving me such wonderful parent.
After graduate from TARC, I found an internal audit job and starting to pay exam & tuition fees on my own since then. Doing ACCA on part time basis is not an easy way, taking annual leave and unpaid leave to study when the exam is near, preparing a sum of money for tuition and exam fees. It’s never an easy path.
Well, I’m so thankful that I have came to the end of my ACCA. After seeing my parent smiling non stop on my graduation day, I think they are proud of their son for his archievement and what I have been through is worth for their smile.
Besides, I would really want to express my gratitute to my friends who had attended my convocation and brought me gifts. Thanks to Li Shan & ORIX colleagues, Chloe & Xiu Jun. Thanks again and you guys have made my day. Oh ya, not to forget to congrat one of my colleauge, Sam, who is also an ACCA affiliate on the same day. Congratulation Sam!!

Next Destination, Taiwan
Taiwan, a country which I wanted to visit long time ago. A place that full of excitements, nice food, great sceneries and different types of cultural and arts which we had seen in TV. All this while, I have been doing survey & research on airfare to Taiwan, if you travel on MAS airline or others, the air ticket would cost you around RM1.800-RM2,000 plus other expenses cost around RM2,000, the trip will cost you RM4,000! Do you think you can afford a RM4,000 trip with a low pay salary under current economy crisis situation? I have doubt on that.
Thanks to Airasia! Currently they are having an airfare promotion starting from 13.05.2009 to 15.05.2009, which the oneway airfare to Taipei is only RM101 excluding airport tax. However, the travel period is in year 2010. Who cares about travel period since it’s on next year. The fare definitely attracts me. Don’t you think that’s really cheap?? My friend called me this morning after knowing this promotion and asked me whether I’m interested to travel together. My answer definitely is :”Ofcourse I’m interested!” and he had purchased the return air ticket thru online immediately. Guess what? The total return air fare is only RM498 per person. Wow~~thanks again to Airasia.
I LOVE TAIWAN!! I’m coming~~My next vacation will be on 07.03.2010 to 16.03.2010!

My Angkor Wat Trip
I have been to Angkor Wat on 19.02.2009- 23.02.2009 for a period of 5 Days 4 Nights. Our belove Ms. Esther collect all the information regarding Angkor Wat and she plan the itinery as well as arrange tour guide, accomodation for all of us. Thanks again.
I know this album has been pending for 2 months and I have edited the pictures finally. Not all, but some of my favourite pictures. Sorry about that.
This was a budget trip. I spent around RM1,100 for the whole trip, which includes accomodation, food, entrance fees and shopping. However, I enjoyed this amazing trip because I got the opportunity to visit the best pre-served temples which was built since 12th century. There are 150 temples in Angkor Wat. Out of them, only 40 plus temples are opened for tourist. After visited some of the temples, I have came to a conclusion, which the sturcture of the temples is the same except the decorations on the wall. 
And that’s the reason why I didn’t snap much of the temples but the detail of the decorations. I would really say the decoration is awesome!
Besides, this was an unforgetable trip because one of our member i.e. Mr. Kee has been hospitalised for 3 hours on our last day of the trip. We suspect he might have taken too much of “Happy Pizza”. Yeap! It’s HAPPY PIZZA. Want to know more about the pizza? You better try it yourselves. On our last day of the trip, we were so worried that we might need to stayback if he is still yet to recover. Anyhow, we managed to come back as per schedule. Well, Share some of my favourite pictures.
Back From Holiday
I’m back ! I wish I could have a longer vacation. 6 Days 5 Nights holiday was not enough!! I’m planning for my next vacation and it’s gonna be very soon!
Yeap!I came back from Hong Kong. Need not worry me, my friends, as I’m not infected by H1N1 virus. Although Hong Kong is one of the affected country, but it’s not that serious as you think or see in the media. The 1st virus infection case reported in Hong Kong was on my 3rd day. On that day, I almost sick because of headache and I think might caught fever. So, I decided to quarantine myself for 12 hours in my room. I’ve taken pills and slept for 12 hours instead of joining the others to Cheungzhao on the next day.
The next day, I feel much more better and went for a free an easy trip, which is shopping! But I didn’t manage to shop because the goods are expensive eventhough there’s sales bargain carnival during this period. However, I had spent almost HK3,000 just for the sake of accomodation, food and transport. Besides, due to body exhaustion, I couldn’t snap much photos on this trip.
On my last day, I have been to Wanchai to have my breakfast Dimsum and majority of the people there is not wearing mask. But I would really want to give some credits to M’sia government that they really done a great job in controlling the spreading of H1N1 virus in the airport. For all visitors who came from affected countries are required to declare themselves and to check their body temperature before entering into M’sia.
Anyway, I do enjoy eating & travelling in Hong Kong and would wish to go back Hong Kong soon. Share some of my favourite shots taken during my holiday.
