Harith Iskander was in Miri a couple of weeks ago for his Nationwide Live comedy tour, presented by Celcom. The event was held in an almost full-house Marriott Hotel and Resort’s ballroom. The night started off with the special guest appearance of Douglas Lim, the comedian who made it up the ranks with the once-famous Kopitiam comedy. I’m sure most of you remember Kopitiam on NTV7 back in 1997. Favorite joke of the night by Douglas: How Timbaland made easy money in the Sexy Back video while Justin...

Are you one of the victims of the iPhone marketing plot? For something that looks so advanced, but didn’t perform to your expectations? So bad it’s not even built to support MMS. FTW? Even a cheap-ass Nokia 2630 supports that. Lack of MMS support. People laugh at my iPhone because its the only phone since 2002 that can’t send or receive picture messages. Why am I ashamed to have the most advanced mobile hardware in the world? So you have an idea for iPhone that you think should be implemented...

There’s really a lot to see and experience in Bangkok, the “dense, corrupted and dirty” metropolitan. (as described in Bangkok Dangerous, the movie). It wasn’t that dangerous when I was there, maybe Nicolas Cage wasn’t there, I suppose. So here I am in Suk 11, the place to stay if you wanna experience authentic Thai village culture, budget style. This is the reception area, filled with vintage and old Thai artwork. It’s Halloween by the way! If you’re observant enough,...

When it’s raining, get under an umbrella. This is yet another fine dining place popping up like mushrooms after the rain. This is Payung Cafe @ Lanang Road. This is Payung Cafe from the outside. The typical, laminated menu. Mango Milk Shake @ RM5. Tasted okay, but adding some mango bits would certainly boost the taste. Springroll. Chicken Rice. Lots of bones and the chicken is tasteless. Pamelo Salad, Thai style. Guava Salad, Thai Style. I’ve to say their Thai style salads taste great. Probably...
