On Friday, the sixth day of Chinese New Year, I called a press conference at Jalan Kuchai Lama, near the Seputeh UMNO service centre cum Operation Centre of Seputeh BN.

The so-called Service Center of Seputeh UMNO is obstructing the construction of two public roads, the DBKL flyover, and the other flyover that’s supposed to be built by Road Builders to connect the Sungai Besi Highway to New Pantai Expressway at the juncture of Jalan Kuchai Lama.

Work on the DBKL flyover started around August 2004 and it was supposed to be completed by this June but the project was stalled because Seputeh UMNO refused to move out of its office and it is now like an illegal roadblock to frustrate construction. (more…)

I have had a few extraordinary peaceful and quiet days on the first three days of the Chinese New Year.

During that time, I refrained from doing anything that would make me work, and I avoided going into the office and I refrained from checking emails too.

I tried to spend those three days with family and rested. It’s my Chinese sabbath.

I watched TV and movies, I visited friends, I attended two open-houses by Chinese associations, I played with my niece, I swam, I slept as much as I could, I tried to reply to all the CNY sms-es that have been sent to my mobile phone :-) (more…)
