Landed safely in KLIA

Just a short update about our travel progress..

We departed almost on time last night if not for a group of passengers who did not want to cooperate. First of all, they tried to get about 10 of them to seat near to each other. Almost impossible task considering the flight was fully book. Somehow they managed purely on the ground that nobody bothered top argue at 1am in the morning. We preferred to sleep.

It was a smooth journey throughout. Slight turbulence on the Indian Ocean, as expected. Smooth landing as well... Met also personnels from Proton who were on transit in Doha from Algiers, Algeria.

Now, here I am... Reach our home at around 4.30pm after struggling to get a big Airport Limo to accommodate 3 big check in bags & 3 hand luggages.

I am suppose to play golf tomorrow with good friends, unfortunately it has to be canceled due to last minute meeting arrangement. It is okay. Some people need to work to earn a living, I guess... hehe. I also need to work really hard to brush up my skill again after a long 1 1/2 years break from golf..

51st Merdeka Celebration in Qatar

I had the opportunity to attend the 51st Merdeka Celebration organsied by Embassy for foreign dignitaries last Thursday. It was held at Diplomatic Club, Doha. Guests of Honour for the night were mainly foreign diplomats in Qatar as well as the representatives from Qatar Foreign Affairs Office.

Nice dinner served on during the night including famous "Satay Dukhan". It was also a best time to promote Malaysia to the ambassadors. For that, few Malaysian tradition dances were performed by daughters of Perwakilan & anak-anak from Dukhan Community.

The evening was more meaningful with the presence of previous Malaysian 1st Lady, Tun Rahah ie widow of late Tun Abdul Razak. Tun was here on personal visit...

I wish I could write more.. Unfortunately, my mind is already in Malaysia.. I hope the photos speak louder than my words...

We are catching our flight back to Kuala Lumpur tomorrow's night. It will be our 1st time going back to Malaysia after 1 1/2 years.. We are all excited... Only 1 small issue... banyak sangat barang nak bawak balik..huhu
