COOL TV shows NOT to be missed!

Posted by Alan Heng

I decided to share with you some of the programmes/TV shows I watch weekly & highly recommend them for everyone's viewing pleasure. FYI these shows are NOT FOUND on Malaysian TV/Astro & the best thing is they are all DIRECT from the US, which means there are not censored in anyway. And YES, they are all FREE! So... this is what you do.

Step 1
You need to have the software Winrar. If you don't have it, you can download HERE & install it on your computer.

Step 2
The URLs/web addresses below leads you to the Rapidshare download site. Bear in mind you need to download ALL the files listed as they make up the entire episode. Once you have downloaded ALL of them, double-click on the 1st file (normally with the number “001” or "part1"), follow the instructions & then it will automatically unzip itself, merging all the files together thus becoming ONE file. Once done, they are ready to be viewed.

ENJOY! ;)

* All shows will be updates on a weekly basis.

WHY floor tiles in 1Borneo are "cracking".

Posted by Alan Heng

I would like to state that I am in no way associated with the 1Borneo Hypermall management & the management are not responsible for(if) any information inaccuracy that is contained herein. I also accept no responsibility whatsoever for(if) any damage or loss is occured as a result of this blog post. - REALLY? Damn...

The most common question people (friends & even customers) have always come up & asked me about 1Borneo is WHY the ceramic floor tiles are "cracking" everywhere & carpets are laid over to cover up the missing tiles. Obviously they wanted information from someone who might have first hand knowledge & since they know I work in the mall, I end up being the target for their answers. I also recall reading an article in Daily Express' Hotline page where someone was complaining about the building showing signs of cracks on walls/pillars & questioned whether structural integrity of the mall was at risk. What the findings were, THAT I don't remember... :P

After Googling the internet, I stumbled upon these 3 sites which are self-explanatory :




Therefore, the MAIN conclusion here are :
  • Loss/lack of adhesion between the tiles and the floor due to the dramatic change of temperature causing thermal expansion (on/off effect of air-conditioning on daily basis).
  • Surface preparation/cement application was where the mistake was first made as tiling skills of workers were inconsistant to industry standards.

In other words, the WORKMANSHIP of the sub-contractors at that time are to blame. It has nothing to do with "building integrity" theories, nothing to do with "movement of the building due to the ongoing construction of the apartment block" bullshit.


Below are samples of cracked/bulged/popped up tiles.



1st pic : In a Singapore housing flat.
2nd pic : Walkway just outside Public Bank, Lido branch.

So, these pics are evident of the "possibility of a building collapse"? What? Another 9/11 on KK soil perhaps? Pull your head out of your ass for a minute, will you conspiracy theorists? Get a life!

MERDEKA! Woo hoo!

Posted by Alan Heng

This day marks the time of the year where all proud Malaysians shout "MERDEKA! MERDEKA! MERDEKA!" in unison & rejoice in our 52nd year of Independence from former British colonial rule back in 1957.

This year's event however has been toned down a notch in the Government's effort to observe the holy Muslim month of Ramadan. Malaysia is officially a Muslim country, but "Islam is not Malaysia's official religion" as mentioned on MalaysiaKini. I still don't get it...

Anyway in the spirit of celebration, I would like to take this opportunity to wish ALL fellow Malaysians a HAPPY & BLESSED MERDEKA! Drive safe folks!

1Borneo blackout for the ___th time. (lost count)

Posted by Alan Heng

This was the scene in front of Parkson (ground floor) around 7:30pm just right after the mall experienced a power failure. On their 1st day of business, Parkson was well prepared for any eventualities & had their own power generator ready.

After getting no answer from the Concierge counter I rang up Sabah Electricity to inquire on the situation. According to one of its personnel, a power sub-station near UMS area had apparently blown a fuse resulting in a massive blackout.

Power eventually came back about 90 mins later much to the relief of shoppers around & also to a group of staff who were secretly hoping the power stayed dead so they could knock off work early...

Well tough luck fellas. Now GET BACK TO WORK!

All Saints Class of 1990 reunion plans UPDATE

Posted by Alan Heng


I must give credit to Jaswinder for preparing the concise report below regarding last night's Reunion plans meetup. Thanks again Jas! ;)

Dear Friends,

A group of us have fixed the reunion dinner for:

Date : 19th February, 2010 (Friday)
Venue : Palace Hotel, KK (to be confirmed)

Details of first meeting are as follows:

1ST MEETING FOR ALL SAINTS FORM 5 CLASS OF 1990 REUNION DINNER

Date : 15th Aug 2009, Saturday.
Time : 9pm.
Location : Lotus coffeeshop, Damai.

Present were:

Alan Heng
Yip Jang Jye
Jaswinder Kaur
Robin Chin
Magdeline Wong
Ian Ma
Roland Yong

Details of the meeting are as below:
  • The first meeting for the Form 5 Class of 1990 reunion dinner was initiated by Alan Heng, and a group of seven classmates met up to talk about where and when to hold the event. A suggestion was brought up to hold it next year, as 2010 marks 20 years since we finished our Form 5.
  • We decided that the reunion should be held in the week Chinese New Year is celebrated, as many of our classmates who have moved away may be returning home then. We chose 19th February, 2010 (Friday), and tentatively, it will be at the Palace Hotel in Kota Kinabalu (Robin to confirm venue).
  • The “committee” decided that it should only be open to classmates and their spouse/partner (if they choose to bring their spouse/partner). It was indicated at the meeting that having children around may not be a great idea. For now, each person who attends will be asked to pay RM50, which will be used to pay for a buffet style dinner, and for souvenirs, decorations, etc.
  • We are also looking at the possibility of getting ex-classmates/corporate sponsors to give lucky draw prizes.
  • The idea of inviting our teachers was thrown to the table, but will be discussed further at the next meeting.
  • We will also do a tribute for classmates who have passed away.
  • The committee will try and collect old photos, and new ones, for a slide presentation.
  • We will need to place an advertisement to reach out to our friends, once we have finalised the venue.
  • The committee also needs a list of friends, and we are hoping that everyone will reach out to ex-classmates who are currently not on Facebook.

Please feel free to email Alan (alan.heng@hotmail.com) and Jaswinder (jaswinder.kler@yahoo.com) if any of us have contacted our other ex-classmates. Thanks!


Friends, let's make this happen!

My NEW blog interface. What do you think?

Posted by Alan Heng

Just finished "recalibrating" my entire blog interface with a new template. I must admit, the more I dabble in this trade, the more I'm loving it! Free blog templates are readily available EVERYWHERE on the internet by the way & with some research, any rookie could pull this stunt off.

A good starting place I would recommend is Blogger Templates. Online directions are there to guide you along from downloading your favourite template to uploading it to your blog. The step-by-step instructions might be a little bit overwhelming at first, but you will eventually get the hang of it.

Happy blogging y'all... :)

PARKSON 1Borneo opening NEXT MONDAY

Posted by Alan Heng

That's right folks! Parkson is finally opening its doors to the public next Monday 17th August 2009! (from a reliable insider source) And it's about damn time!

After about 2 weeks delay, they are now ready to extend their arms & greet us all to bask in their splendour of their newly renovated Sabah flagship store here in 1Borneo.

So everyone after work drop by 1Borneo's new anchor tenant & who knows, you'll end up with great bargains yet again!

Update 16th Aug:
Looks like they are putting tons of promo items on the Ground & 1st floor, just outside of their main entrances. Bargains galore! Huhuhu...!!! :P
