Our daily accident give us now

Malaysia is one of the very countries in the world where the number of road fatalities is increasing. Since I moved to KL, I have seen things I never witnessed before.

If stuck in a jam, chances are that a truck rolled over a few motorcycle riders. I have seen that 3 times now, with blankets covering the riders.

This picture was taken Friday morning. Yesterday, 400 meters down the road a car burned out. While sitting at the breakfast table this morning, I heard some noise. A taxi spun backwards off the road and into a consturction stock pile, wrecking their fencing. Three accidents in 4 days is not bad...

Bus and Truck Expo - Thailand

Off to Thailand for the Bus and Truck Expo this week...
Don't you love the big rigs?

Looking forward to some great Siamese Food.

Questionable jobs: Sex-guru

From: http://www.dailychilli.com/news/7254-meet-spores-first-female-qsexpertq

There is also self-styled sex guru Wei Siang Yu, better known by his nickname "Dr Love".

He recently launched an online sexuality education portal, which is aimed at providing young people with interactive online sex education in Singapore.

To be a board-certified sexologist, one has to complete between 300 and 500 hours of training in human sexuality.

Those who possess an academic degree such as a doctorate, like Dr Lee, would have completed between 3,000 and 5,000 hours.

What exactly is "Training in human sexuality"?????

Singapore on a mission

Ahhhhhh nice...
Floyd didn't like the idea of having his picture posted, so I upload a snapshop of the place 30 seconds before his arrival.

Yes, this is in Singapore, I was there last week again. This time to set up our Launchpad office in the island state. We are growing. Time to celebrate? Well, once we get the first client.

Beauty in Darkness

Back to Kuala Lumpur after a hectic month full of travel. Got a nice shot of the twin towers this morning. Something different. Instead of gleaming and beaming, this one is a bit more dramatic.

Coffee time now.

Family gathering in Singapore

This Wednesday I will be flying to Singapore. The other Pertzens are coming as well, arriving 15 minutes later than I do. Talk about planning.

The missus will join us on Sunday for the long awaited family trip to the beach.
In the meantime we will be (hopefully) having a great time at the Singapore GP (http://www.singaporegp.sg/). Not sure if I really HAVE to see Mariah Carry On, but hey, free!
Or maybe I see the Chippendales? 15 years after the male stripper hayday they might be sporting pot-bellies, bald heads and fewer teeth...

Here also a few things I wish would go away:

- The "Medium" size when there are only 2 sizes.
How can something be in the middle between 2???

- The need to almost undress completely when boarding a plane.
Thought your X-Ray machines take care of all the detecting of dangerous stuff?

- Messages like "Best use of 3-D effects since Avatar" when Avatar was yesterday!

Up in the Air - Starring Stefan

Travelling again. To Germany for the weekend and a day. Then back to Kuala Lumpur. When I come back, it is a half day in the office, then another public holiday.
The week after this, we are all going to be in Singapore for the Formula 1 race.
