I would like to wish all my Chinese friends and all Malaysians a “Happy and Prosperous Chinese New Year”.

I got caught up with a lot of things this weekend including a really bad hangover. I’m back to normal now and would sincerely like to apolagize for my late wishes. Especially to all my close Chinese friends.

Sorry guys, better late then never.

Dropped my best friends Alan, Raja and Weesak off at the bus station last night. This is the beginning of the yearly pilgrimage we make to Langkawi. 5th year to Langkawi if memory serves me right.

Why now? Simple, new year in Langkawi!!! No jam, party with no dress code, chicks and best of all cheap BOOZE!!!!

Imagine 1 whole week without worries, phones, notebooks, city life, parents,clean rooms, schedules and every other pain in the ass reason you can find. Only us, the ocean, Mr. BEER, Mr. Liquor and reagea music….. Woo Hoo!!!!

I’m running late this year though, stuck with work so I’ll be leaving this Friday the 28th and will be there till the 1st. So wish I could leave everything behind and join them on the bus, doesn’t help that we just had some pre Lankawi beers just now.sigh……

Well, I’ll hang in there for 2 days….

It was good to go home and enjoy the weather, food and the people there. If I could find something to do there in IT I would move back now.

The trip was fun but at the same time I felt sad to see my once beautiful hometown now being transformed into a tourist attraction. There are shops all over the place now like mushrooms, prices going up, buildings coming up all over the place blocking the beautiful views, camping grounds being changed to food stores and souvenirs shops, waterfalls disappearing and much much more……..

The only thing left to enjoy now is the cold weather and the clean air. This will not be for long, over the past 6 years the temperature has raised about 3 degrees. So, imagine with all the new destruction in the name of tourism  what would happen in the next 10 years.

O ya one more thing, Camerons once boasted that it was a favorite amongst foreigners but not anymore. I hardly saw any foreigners this time. They come for the nature, you take it away and they have no reason to come back. It’s all for the local tourist now. They come, mess the place up and leave. sigh………….

See come pictures from my trip on the next page.
