Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

A few months ago,.I was terrified at the thought of having my own car, driving in the maddening traffic.

These days? I be cursing at other drivers and be ready to fight them, only thing that's holding me back is my boyfie.

This long weekend (taking Friday off) I taking a short trip to a nearby town for a eating and tourism holiday with the family, and 2 other families of my wife's friends.

Initially I was quite pumped for this trip. Drive, enjoy scenery, hotel got pool, destination has lots of interesting food and scenery and attractions.

But now I'm a bit hesitant. These friends and their spouses are a bit different in mindset and worldview from us.

We have been on trips with some of her other friends' families. I think we had 4 families, and it was mostly free and easy. If schedules match up then eat/swim/breakfast together, else you do at your own pace.

This trip, I dunno man. I will just enjoy the drive and hope the Hari Raya traffic doesn't totally kill us.

Omitofo.

Have fun! Not having high expectations is the right way to go - especially with kids!

Was at a badminton court in USJ and saw a banner for LCW Badminton Academy. Cool right?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I don't think there's comment default function yet, can't seems to find it in the option. But there's post default tho.

Today witnessed my colleague getting berated by her boss, resulting in her crying afterwards. Took her in a room and consoled her and once she calmed down we brainstormed enough ideas that she can present to her boss. All good right? except that I actually agree with her boss… yes the berating was too much but the reason was valid. It’s been an ongoing frustration with me too, but she didn’t deserve that la. Dunno what to do now

TNB's latest TV ad is disingenuous. It's not that the cost of electricity has risen. It's that the cost of importing coal has risen.

They're airing the ads as if to warm people up to the idea of raising tariffs.

They should've instead put more resources into renewable energy but the people in charge are too sootbrained, as in every other institutions in the country.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I think that from TNB's point of view, cost of electricity has indeed increased. If I'm not mistaken, TNB buys energy from suppliers (the power stations and any overseas links), distributes and sells to consumers.

It's actually the government's fault, I think there was some discussion about non-tender, direct negotiation to award power plant contracts. IIRC this was brought up by Yeo Bee Yin in one of her social media posts back when she was Minister of Energy, Science and Technology.
