Many questions have been raised on the purpose of this planet. To that, the answer is that we citizens wish only to share the little knowledge and ideas of ours. Naturally, we would indeed welcome comments and thoughts on matters on our planet.

The other eight heard the boy

Recently, I've come across the term "Third World Mentality" (TWM) (or Third World Management as opposed to TQM, Total Quality Management) quite a lot in the media and Internet. This leads me to think of what is TWM, how is it defined, how is it identified, and why do many Malaysians associate our country's management with it. The last question reflects much on how Malaysians perceive, know and

It's very sad to see human beings committing heinous crimes against their fellow human kind. The Nanjing Massacre took place when the Japanese invaded China in 1937 where up to 300,000 civilians were raped and killed.Read here for a write-up on the current bickering between the affected nations.So do you feel a pain in your guts as you eat sushi while listening to mp3s from your latest Sony

Here are some photos I took during a recent hike up to Bunga Buah, Genting Highlands, Malaysia with Tom's Jalan-Jalan members and friends. Behold the many mossy wonders flourishing in the cool relaxing climate of Bunga Buah. The fresh and cool air is simply refreshing!A starfish-like moss forest. These mosses look like miniature coconut or palm trees.Moss carpeting. They felt so soft and supple

And today we explore an interesting subject on food - Margarine v.s. Butter received via forwarded mails.===========================================Both have the same amount of calories. Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams compared to margarine's 5 grams. Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over eating the same amount of butter, according to a recent

Hi, apparently we have a satelite moon for the Planet Deng too. So therefore we celebrate this Lunar New Year more popularly known as the Chinese New Year or the Spring Festival. It's supposed to mark and celebrate the arrival of Spring, but we're sweating our pants off over here. Anyways, Happy Holidays!

Just last weekend our founder and contributor KNFK had an accident while riding his motorcycle on the way home in the night. Surrounding that incident, a series of other unfortunate events have made him feel rather down and outta luck (Or 'sui' as the Chinese would put it). You can see a picture of his injuries and read about his predicament at his blog. So if there's anyone out there who knows

Here's a Buddhist doctrine on discovering truths for oneself, and not accept what others may or may not say... Hope you get enlightened soon!Peace in! :-) Do not accept anything on (mere) hearsay (i.e., thinking that thus have we heard it from a long time). Do not accept anything by mere tradition (i.e., thinking that it has thus been handed down through many generations

Look what I found? Something we've seen before but forgotten... A good reminder nonetheless. If I had my life to live over I'd dare to make more mistakes next time I'd relax I would limber up I would be sillier than I have been this trip I would take fewer things seriously I would take more chances I would take more trips I would climb more mountains and swim more rivers I would eat more
