Debit Cards Rule!
I was just talking to a friend last Saturday when this topic popped up.
Yes, contrary to what is happening to Malaysia and its huge credit card excesses, the debit card rules supreme in China.
Credit cards are real difficult to obtain in the world's most populous nation. So the next best thing apart from carrying cash will be to have a debit card.
So, if you do not have much money in your bank account, you just cannot spend and thus avoid the spectre of cash crunch or worse,bankruptcy.
Perhaps, Malaysia should further tighten credit card accessibility, particularly amongst the easy spending youths!

First Day at Work
Well, the day my daughter was waiting to transit into working life finally arrived. 19th September-great day for a new start.
So she slept early yesterday and got up at the crack of dawn this morning to ready herself for this milestone day of her life.
I drove her to the LRT station and off she went.
I do hope she has positive things to relate tonight when she comes home.
PS:
Yes, she was so excited and told us it was more of getting to know your new colleagues through management games and listening to relevant personnel to get a glimpse of what corporate life is all about. So onwards to Day 2.

Singing or Bellowing?
Yes, I have to post this,especially after our karaoke session yesterday. Most opportune.
Yes, we have been tolerant.
Call it neighbourhood nuisance but we have endured this infantile singer for quite a long while. We have kept the peace.
Friends and relatives that came by to visit also remarked on this sudden outburst of bellowing, piercing the neighbourhood peace and quiet.
As the story goes, he actually lives in a far-away place but drops by each day to have a bath before he is whisked off by his parents to this far-far away resident at night.( I do not know whether the neighbours here have to bear with this bad,mad singer!)
And so it came to pass. A rolly-polly neighbour could no longer bear it. He came over to the back of the house and hollered at the boy with profanities galore.
I wonder whether the boy will succumb to this verbal threat or will he just sing on........?
I await the jury's call on this.

Family Time Karaoke
Well, it got to be the first family karaoke session.
With my wife and daughter, we hit the Red box this morning at 11am. Yes, the one at Sunway Pyramid.
It would have be complete if my son didn't have to go for his school exams.
I thought we had a good session-with the usual off keys and wrong pitches.
We enjoyed the session that lasted for 3 hours.
Food was good especially the rib-eye which only cost us RM18.00.
This was one eventful day for me.
