When comparing one thing with another you may find that one is more appealing “than” another.
“Than” is the word you want when doing comparisons. But if you are talking about time, choose “then“:“First you separate the eggs; then you beat the whites.” Alexis is smarter than I, not “then I.”

Perodua, where is my refund?
More than a week has passed and the Perodua service advisor or customer care has not called me regarding the refund for the additional cost of the acoustic insulator added to my February car service invoice.
Must I as a customer call them? This is not the first time I have to call and remind them. This is not good customer service.

Jusco Mahkota Cheras Update
I passed Jusco Mahkota Cheras this morning after breakfast at a nearby restaurant. There were many cars parked outside, lots of activities around the area and in the building.
The outlet must be opening soon. When? I am still not sure.
No photos as I left my handphone camera at home charging.

If we accept, without question, leaders who are not good role models, it will send a negative message to the people, especially to children who look up to leaders as role models in that our party accepts and condones such corruption notwithstanding our wholesome and respectable culture.

Strictly No Contract IT Consultants
We contract IT consultants in our workplace, and we sometimes call them "contractors".
In my office block, there is this notice outside the lifts. "STRICTLY NO CONTRACTORS... ALLOW INTO THIS LIFT", other than the bad grammar, our contract IT consultants are not allowed to use the lift.
Please use the stairs ^__^

Lunch @ O&S, Paramount, PJ
My colleagues and I went to O&S Restaurant in Paramount PJ last Friday for lunch.
I ordered a small Wan Ton Mee and it was really small. Cost RM4, but it was delicious. A small plate or bowl of noodle use to cost RM3.50-3.80 last year.
I had to buy Pisang Goreng after eating the noodle.

Muhyiddin's April Fool’s joke?
Kit Siang: Muhyiddin is an April Fool’s joke
Friday April 1, 2010
DAP stalwart Lim Kit Siang continued his tirade against Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s declaration that he was a “Malay first”, saying it has dismantled Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s 1 Malaysia and turned the concept into an April Fool’s joke.
Earlier in the day, Najib said he saw nothing wrong with his deputy’s statement.
“I feel very sorry for the Prime Minister that his signature concept of 1 Malaysia, as the sixth prime minister of Malaysia, has been torn to smithereens by his deputy just on the eve of his first anniversary as Prime Minister on Saturday on 3rd April,” Lim told reporters in Parliament today.
“In fact, thanks to Muhyiddin, Najib’s 1 Malaysia concept has been turned nationwide into an April fool’s joke, as today is April 1,” the Ipoh Timur MP added.
Muhyiddin said yesterday that he considered himself a “Malay first,” and only then a Malaysian, in response to a challenge issued by the veteran opposition leader.
Lim had challenged Muhyiddin to state that he was Malaysian first, and Malay second to prove that he did indeed believe in the concept of 1 Malaysia which had been Barisan Nasional’s “unifying” slogan under the leadership of Najib....

TweetBlog: 01.04.2010: Change Car Disc-Brake (Update)
Collected my car from the service centre yesterday evening. The disc-brake was skimmed and brake pad changed. There was no charges, as the car is still under warranty.
I will be refunded for the Acoustic Insulator which I was charged during the last car service in February. I bought this part in year 2007, which is installed on the car bonnet.
