Land of the Killing Field, Here I Come Again


Time really flies. It was December 2005 when my friends and I visited Cambodia. Next week, I shall return to this beautiful country. This time, I am going on a work assignment in Phnom Penh, capital of Cambodia.
Last time, we visited Siam Reap and Angkor Wat, one of the world's eight wonders (is it really 8?). This time, I tell myself that I will explore Phnom Penh to the fullest. Well, I've got 5 days to do so. Hope to publish some beautiful pictures of the country when I return from the trip.
What wiil I see, this time? Is there any culture shock awaiting me? I really eager to fly there, as if this is my first overseas trip. Why? I don't know; maybe I just love the country...
World Cup 2006! So far, I have been having good times during this World Cup - It's 100% strike rate. I mean betting. First Korean beat Togo 2-1 and I won. Ghana vs USA 2-0, again I'm right on target; I celebrate an Italy job well done, Italy rubbed out the Czech Republic 2-0. Portugal romance with 2-1 win over Mexico. Wow! the feeling is wonderful, you know what i mean? Ooh! it's 10.10 pm now. Got to watch my world cup, now. Bye!

Stomp or Star Blogs? Sorry, I Prefer World Cup!


Stomp from The Straits Times was launched on June 14, the day we celebrated our son's birthday. It was claimed that Stomp had received more than 120,000 hits by Saturday. Good luck! Meanwhile, we have our good time on June 14. We also watched the world cup matches together, for the first time.
We did not invite celebrity or use sexy gals to grace the occasion, unlike the people at Stomp who prefers to use star blogs such as Xiaxue, Dawn Yang, etc. (no offence to these bloggers)
Mt point here is: do we need to use or depend on such characters, who often strive on articles relating to sex or similar themes, to jump start a new portal, especially S.T which is an everyday icon for the past donkey years. The youngs and young-at-heart do not live on SEX alone!
Of course, comparing my son's birthday to the portal's launch is not quite appropriate here, but I'm trying to make my point that life is not always about sex, and SEXY MACHINE is not only about sex, and nothing else - Sexy in the way we enjoy ourselves, the way we work, the way we enjoy others company, etc.
Previously, in my article on 'Xiaxue or Dawn Yang, Who Cares!', I provided a link to Xiaxue's for those who have knocked at the wrong door. This time, I will make it easier for Dawn Yang's fans who have accidentally called at this blog site. The link is on the right column directly below Xiaxue's.
If i have it my way, Stomp could organise contests for the targeted audience, create special preview and events / articles linking to the popular American Idol, Singpore idol AND WHAT HAVE YOU. Anyway, I wish them success.
Oop! got to stop now, before i get carried away into the journalist's world. I'm going back to World Cup now. Adieu
