Pumped petrol in JB today, and for the first time we gotta pay more than RM50 for slightly more than a quarter tank of fuel. Well, i guess everyone has already talked about the recent hike in fuel prices, and i'm not gonna comment much on it anymore. We drive a SG car, and we are not paying income tax in Msia. So i guess we are in no position to say anything anyway. At least they lifted the ban on foreign cars pumping petrol near the borders, so we probably should be grateful.

But then, the whole thing just once again shows how Msia government is so lack of planning and always flip-flopping on their policies. Having a government like this simply puts shame on us, the Malaysians who worked in SG and couldn't rebut a single word when Singaporeans laugh their heads off at how incompetent our government is.

貝 hurt his right elbow last week. He had a sprain while playing badminton last Sunday and didn't feel anything until late evening when he couldn't bend or straighten his hand. He then went for acupuncture in SG but didn't heal completely. Then he visited a Chinese physician in JB on Saturday, whom i had visited previously when i sprain my hand while playing golf. This physician is very good in bone-setting, but the process of the treatment was painful of course. Anyway, 貝 gotta refrain from playing badminton for two weeks, which is somewhat good to me, as we can spend more time together on Sunday.

So we went dating today. Watched Kung Fu Panda at the cinema. I'd say it's the best animation that Dreamworks has produced in recent years. I thoroughly enjoyed it, especially it has something to do with Chinese culture and kung fu.

I may be going to TW again on Wednesday, not sure for how long. Little boss only briefly talked about it over the phone and didn't reply my email asking about the duration of the trip. I'm not sure why he always wanna inform us of the plan at the very last minute. Isn't project manager supposed to plan ahead and ensure the relevant parties are informed and ready for the work? He really ought to do more sharing with us, instead of keeping everything just between big boss and himself.
