年青的时候听人说过，女人十八一朵花，男人三十一条龙。
我二十来岁时，开始对女人有兴趣了。看到靓美眉会想和她们做朋友。那时后的我不懂事，也不知道为什么一些看不顺眼的男人身边有那么多靓女。年青的我，没什么魅力，没什么男人味，没什么经济能力，也不会泡美眉。在女人的面前看起来好想是个失败者。
我跟着岁月的成长，走过了人生道路，体验过天地人间的感情。在事业上也经历过残酷的挣扎。在这个民主的社会，我的挑战，我的奋斗，就像关羽千里走单骑的去找刘备。给社会的磨练，我这个小男人终于变成大男人了。
我三十了。有经验了，懂事了。有事业了，会赚钱了。有丰富的感情，有女人了。
苦尽甘来，啊！现在的我，要风得风，要雨得雨。
今天的我，终于体验到男人三十一条龙是一个成功男人的特点。
I have publish here, the executive summary of the online casino project we are pioneering for the online gaming market. The project name is Gaming Asia. If you are interested, I will email you the complete business plan for your perusal.
Executive Summary
London is the centre for the online gaming industry. There are 26 flotation in its stock exchanges in the recent years. The largest company among them is only 9 years old, yet has a market capitalisation of USD10 billions. The main credit goes to only one game, Poker, which retain customers very efficiently.
East/Southeast Asia has 28% world GDP (North America 23% & Europe 26%). USA is currently the online gaming industry’s main market. Fast growing China will be the equivalent of USA in this region. Recent strong online Poker growth in the west has yet to come to this part of the world due to problems of payment, censorship, legality or lack of Asian insight. The Asian’s Poker gaming needs are high but are not properly satisfied with a sustainable model.
Gaming Asia knows this region online gaming market well and has the solution to the problems. Western scalable models will be enhanced with Asian methodologies to achieve a long term solution. We will start with China as it is the biggest, fastest growing & relatively undeveloped. Player acquisition is currently inexpensive & may not remain so for long. Current competitors are restricted by the many problems and new competitors cannot sustain acquiring players at high prices.
Our games will be based on a highly “portable” yet stable programming platform for its ease in making changes to satisfy players’ needs. New marketing programs can be swiftly implemented & it also allows us scalable deployments as we expand into other Asian countries beyond China.
The management team is made up Chinese with entrepreneurship, marketing, programming, on-the-ground & guanxi-building (关系) abilities. We are based in different parts of the region. Being Chinese with different skills & backgrounds, we possess the necessary Asian insight to execute our plan successfully.
Gaming Asia seeks £150,000 investment in exchange for common stock of 20% of total capitalisation. Offshore corporations will be formed to take into account the change in shareholders and shares allocated. This amount is sufficient for our subsequent 12 months of operation. Realistically, another round of £1 million financing is required to reach critical mass & positive cash flow.
Gaming Asia had invested money, time and effort in the research for a successful online gaming market model in China over a 12-month period. We are absolutely confident and a strong believer in our business model to be the most viable option for a successful entrance into China.
The Online Casino mentions here is also known as Gaming Asia. Gaming Asia is the official project name for the Online Casino.
We are now in the second phase of beta testing, integrating video support to our site. Things are going slow for us but we are getting the results we are expecting.
We are targeting to go live before Chinese New Year.

After six months of operation, we decided to cease operation.
This lucrative traditional business is a good business. I have learn a lot about the trade and the art of Chinese tea drinking. However I think it is not suitable for me at the moment. I have decided to cease the business and withdraw my partnership, and to concentrate on my other projects.
On another Pearl River Delta tour, this autumn. It was another tiring tour travelling from town to town to finish my unfinished agenda again. This trip was no different from my summer tour except I have a smoother trip and made a lot of new friends.
However I overspent and blew my budget for the autumn tour but it was well spent.
Now back to Zhuhai and took a rest and energised myself for the next embarkment.
The time has almost come for me to retire my Macintosh PowerBook. I really cannot bear to let it go.
Although it gets weird once a while it has been faithful to me and my best travelling companion among all my portable devices.
I am replacing it with the new macbook.
In remembrance of my powerbook, I have taken pictures of it and exhibit here. So this page is dedicated to my powerbook for keeping me company during my solitary time.
My last trip back to Singapore, I chanced upon the opportunity to work with Apple products. I was working in one of the authorised Apple Service Centre, providing Macintosh support and repair. It was a great experience to join the workforce again since I stopped working a few years back.
I learned a lot about Apple products, iPod, iTunes, iBook, iMac, and most importantly are my iFriends. iFriends are the people I worked with in the technical department.
Although it was a short attachment, I was very happy to work with the team because we shared our fun while serving our nasty customers. Although all of us came from different places and philosophies, we worked in unison to give Apple customers a unique Mac experience.
But sad to say, Mac customers suck! Just like Windows users. Because of all these sucky customers that where we found our fun and joy.
Keep up the good works my iFriends, the Macintosh support team. Without you guys, we would not have the unique Mac experience, Be Different!
My Tiger airway flights sucks again!
Why? If you ask.
My Coke Light is up by fifty cents from two dollars to two dollars and fifty cents. Normally I would drink about four cans during the flight and cost me eight dollars. Now my cost is ten dollars.
And tigerairways.com online ticketing system sucks big time and I do not know why they win the XXXXXXX award. I do not know how the system works but the online pricing increases when the flight schedules are getting nearer to the dates. And the interface that displays the options for you to choose is not user-friendly.
And for this trip, my ticket fare is as expensive as flying with Singapore Air.
One thing that satisfy me this trip are the cabin crews. They are the prettiest group I ever seen. My favourite crew is Stephanie Huang.
