First Time Blogging

Hello World! This is probably one of the most popular way to learn a new programming language and I will use this phrase to greet everyone in cyberspace. Isn't it amazing what humankind had achieved. My intention to start this blog is to express my thoughts or feelings. Human has resort to blogging, facebook or twitter to express oneself. So I thought why not I start a blog and see how long I can last. I will try to express what I find interesting.

24-Nov-2010 seen the passing of a great leader the late Tun Dato Seri Utama Dr Lim Chong Eu (28 May 1919 – 24 November 2010). I would like to express my sincere condolence to the family of late Tun Dato Seri Utama Dr Lim Chong Eu. The passing of the great statesman is a big loss to the nation especially to state of Penang. Late Tun Dato Seri Utama Dr Lim Chong Eu is always remembered as a visionary man. Dr Lim will be remembered for his legacy to transform Penang into Silicon Valley of the east ("Father of industrialisation"), built Komtar Tower (once the tallest building in Malaysia) and Penang bridge (one of world's longest bridge).

The late Tun had been instrumental to attract foreign direct investment to Penang. His effort has resulted in the booming of electronic manufacturing industry in Penang.

One of Dr Lim's most famous quote "putting yourself as a Malay­sian first does not make you less of a Chinese or Malay". I strongly believe that this can become reality if we can have more leaders like him.
