Joey Yap Congress - Day 1

Today was the 1st day of Joey Yap's congress which was held in KL Convention Centre. Is amazing how many people are interested in Joey. He does have a series of fans lining up to have their books signed. I have known of Joey through a commercial TV program that he did for a property developer many years ago. I think that was years back and he started to bloom and become popular ever since then. Mom and bro has always been a fengshui fanatic. They were really into Lillian Too then but all that changed eversince I brought mom to Joey's National Congress last year. No offence to Lillian but I think Joey's practice is more real and practical.

Knowing Joey was incidental. I thought that he would be good for our company and suggested to my boss to engage his service in an attempt to boost the sales for one of our projects. I was surprised that the suggestion actually went through and ever since then, Joey has been seek to do few consultancy for the company. I would say that what is impressive about Joey is the fact that he is very knowledgeable and is truly good in his field. His ability to communicate and charm his audience is very apparent. He is truly good on the stage and he is probably the only reason why people grouped to the congress. Tomorrow would be another day. Hoped to load some interesting pictures of the congress.

Street Party @ 06/09/08

The sky has been clear the past one week. Yea, it frustrates me in a way, simply because it rained the whole day on the day of my Street Party.

The party started at 6.30pm but at about 5 pm, there were already some guests strolling in to the site. The rain stopped for a while then but it started again at approximately 7pm plus. It was a challenge to organise an event under the rain. As the theme was a Street Party, we only had canopies to protect the food areas.

Despite the rain, the turnout was quite amazing. Many came to savour the food and of course to take the door gift. It was a celebration for the residence in celebrating the change of name of Damansara Indah Resort Home to Tropicana Indah Resort Homes. We also celebrated two occasions - the "Buka Puasa" for our Muslims purchasers and Mooncake Festival.

We have actually lined up a few interesting programme and performances and the event went on despite the rain, except for the lantern parade and the fire-eaters which actually have to end their show earlier.

The street was lined up with stalls of food that varies from mee mamak, nasi lemak, chendol, rojak, sushi, satay whereas at a private area, a sumptuous "buka puasa" meal was served.

As the rain progress throughout the night, many of the visitors walkabout in their umbrellas. Some were wet as despite the rain, they still queue for the food. The spirit were high as the the visitors continued to wait on for the lucky draw. All of them thronged to the show unit at the porch area.

The night ended with many happy lucky winners taking home electrical goods. The main prize was a 32" LCD TV which was won by one happy purchaser.

Who do you think you are?

One day, you will learn your lesson. You will learn that money does not make you greater. You will learn that money does not give you the right to insult. You will learn that the one thing that you think is cheap will be the thing that you will be deprived of. You will learn that we do not question or fight God's will and that all this will be shown to you. You will reap what you have sown and every harsh word and insults that you put onto others will reflect upon yourself. You will know that when you die, you will be nothing and all the money that you think makes you powerful is just going to be ashes. When you break, the people that you looked down on, will be the people that you will come begging for help. And these people who are poor to you and whom you have insulted will still pitied you and because this poor people has a gold of heart and they will still bestow you with kindness. But all that you have condemn, all that you have insulted, you will still be judged when the time is right!
