The army camp in Sungai Besi brings back fond memories for me when I was in standard 5, which my neighbor successfully recruited into Royal Military College (RMC), he was the only Chinese at that time, out of 200 new recruits.

Powerful words from 2 Samuel 2 this morning. May the Lord now show you kindness and faithfulness, and I too will show you the same favor because you have done this. ~ 2 Samuel 2:6 I got a call on Monday from a partner who constantly accused me when we won a project or client, [...]
When I was doing my daily devotion yesterday, I could not do it in the SOAP method, because none of the passage spoke to me. I must be honest with God, can’t just a passage and so be it. Today, when I read 1 Samuel 26, David again spared Saul’s life. In 1 Samuel 26:11, [...]

I remember I used to take our sons (not that I am not now, I still bring them around for family, work & leisure) around to everywhere, by myself. Sometimes I faced the challenge of them being in a shopping mall and ran around in different direction. I also worried about them whether some day [...]
Of many things that not so good that our sons have picked up from me, one thing I am glad that they really had from me and Retna – the love of reading. Although sometimes it is hard to control their time on computer, Nintendo Wii and iPod Touch, they still spend quite a lot [...]

The night before they were born, Retna and I had some really nice porridge in Taman Desa (that was where we settled after married). Retna felt the sons were on their way. She told this which I remember very well, “Take me to the very nice porridge in Taman Danau Desa. I want to eat [...]
Wanting to write this blog entry for some days now – about moving forward or progressing in life takes initiative, without that, one could possibly be stand still, or better known as status quo. Just to share with you our recent experience about making a tough decision concerning our sons.
Both Elijah and Ariel (our twin sons) were dedicated when they were below one year old. After close to eight years of being dedicated, they joined their sister, Inez dedication today as the official photographers. Today was exceedingly difficult to find any car park around the church vicinity, even though many home fellowship leaders are [...]
Since it would be hard to push the two sons to revise their school work in time with the school semester examination, decided to task them to help out parents in arranging and cleaning the newspaper coverage room a bit. Learning from Koki Ando, whom his dad Momofuku Ando had him on board for the business [...]
