Withdraw 1,050 from my VMI card
Author:
• Saturday, July 28th, 2007

During the recent trip to KL, while on the way there, I withdrew RM1,050 from Bank Bumiputera Commerce or CIMB bank as it is now known. It was done in a jiffy. All it takes was to withdraw from my PayPal account to my Virtual Money Inc (VMI) account in USA. After 5 days, the money is inside my other bank account in VMI. I don’t have to depend on money laundering services that takes a cut for commission on the payment and the services. And I still get to use my VMI account with no glitches at all as claimed by some skeptics in their blogs.

I have already reserved a room for our weekend hotel stay in Northam Suite in Penang. The amount was RM190 per room. And it was booked 2 weeks earlier. I tried to book last week, but due to the holidays, it was fully book by then and so I forwarded it to this week. I have stayed in many other local hotels like Hydro Majestic Hotel in Batu Feringghi (formerly known as Batu Feringghi Beach Hotel), Red Rock hotel in town, Trader’s Hotel (formerly Shangrila Hotel) near Komtar, Cititel Hotel, Berjaya Hotel in Midlands Court, and Naza Hotel beside Penang Chinese Swimming Club.

Need to Pack for Trip to China
Author:
• Friday, July 27th, 2007

As I am bringing a small roller bag, I need to bring the necessary for my coming trip to China tomorrow night. My second sister just went to the Great Wall of China and Tiananmen Square a few days ago and sent some photos of what to wear, how much to pay and what not to buy. Since the background surroundings will most likely be red and green, she has advised us not to wear red or green and look like a Chameleon blending with the surroundings. I will bring my blue, purple and yellow t-shirts along for the colors to stand out. I shall be back on the 6th August in the afternoon. So no blogging in the mean time. And I don’t intend to bring along a notebook to blog. This is an 8-day trip and guided tour to Beijing, Tianjin and Chende.

Back to Condominium in Subang Jaya
Author:
• Thursday, July 26th, 2007

We were about to set forth and drive up to Penang this morning when my colleague discovered that the car water pump is leaking. As we need to drive up about 400 miles, we need to have the water pump replace to avoid any problems along the highway. So we are back to the Subang Jaya condominium while the car is being serviced. Thank goodness it was discovered early before our trip back North. I shudder to think what will happen if the car breaks down in the middle of the road due to a leaking water pump. So while waiting, I am back to blogging to kill time.

Just came back home from site visiting
Author:
• Thursday, July 26th, 2007

We set out this morning to pass a pair of basketball nets to one of our clients and then stopped for lunch. After that we went to Shah Alam to see another client’s futsal courts installation that is in progress. There are 6 courts to be built here in a factory that is rented for RM25,000 per month. As the costs are high, we cannot afford to delay this big project as each day money is spend on the hefty rental alone. After that, we proceeded to a prime club in KL for a short meeting. By that time, it was late afternoon. We stopped in The Submit for light dinner before proceeding to the rented condominium of the company. We have to set off early tomorrow morning for the drive back to Penang.

Harrison House signs Joseph Prince
Author:
• Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

With almost two decades of full-time ministry behind him, Pastor Joseph Prince has become the leading voice for a new generation of believers — a generation that builds its hope on the abundance of God’s grace and the gift of His righteousness.

A founding member and pioneer leader of New Creation Church, Pastor Prince initially served as an elder and associate pastor. However, his appointment as senior pastor in 1990 marked a turning point in the history of the church, which started experiencing growth at an accelerated rate never before seen in its history. The 15 years under Pastor Prince’s leadership have seen God multiplying the church congregation from about 150 to more than 12,000!

A highly sought-after speaker in Africa, Asia, Europe and the Southeast Asian region, Pastor Prince’s sermons are broadcast weekly in Uganda, a nation hungry for the Word of God. Through his conferences in countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Holland and Norway, he has also impacted many church leaders and ministry servers. Having built and established the leadership and congregation of New Creation Church on the gospel of grace, Pastor Prince is now actively fulfilling the vision that God has given him to spread the good news of the gospel of Christ to the nations.

This article was documented on the 1st of April, 2007 in Tulsa, Oklahoma as can be seen here from HarrisonHouse’s web site.

4 more days before trip to China
Author:
• Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

I shall be leaving Penang for KL on Sunday night for about 6 hours plane flight from KL to Beijing, China. This is my first overseas trip since I came back to Penang from Singapore in December 2000. It has been about 7 long years that I ever took a long haul flight on board. And to accompany me for this trip to Beijing, Chende and Tianjin will be my parents whom I have sponsored for their trip. I look forward to the trip to China and will bring a small luggage with rollers. I have also bought an additional 1GB memory card for my camera in case of too many photo-taking and just in case my own 1GB card is not sufficient to contain all the photos. Wish me journey mercies and to have a pleasant trip to China.

I am in Kuala Lumpur Now
Author:
• Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

This morning, I did not have much time to blog as I had to get ready for the trip to KL at 9:00am today. After putting my bedsheet into the washing machine, I hurried to the gate of the waiting car of my colleague. He drove about 5 hours with a short break in A & W for a root beer float before proceeding to meet up with our client, a golf club in KL. Most likely I shall be back on Friday morning. Thereafter, we went to Sunway Pyramid to have our dinner in Delifrance. After buying some drinks and titbits, we drove to the company’s rented condo in Subang Jaya to rest and relax.

New Creation Church has Gone International
Author:
• Sunday, July 22nd, 2007

All churches preach Good News to its people. But the most annointed church I have ever attended was Pastor Joseph Prince’s New Creation Church. Now it has 15,000 members and still growing very fast. During my time in year 2000 while I was still in Singapore, it was about 6,000 members, then exploded to 12,000 member a couple of years later and now it has 15,000 members. People loved hearing the true Gospel and right preaching and teaching. It does not mix the Old Testament with the New Testament. You cannot mix Law and Grace together.

Around 2002, New Creation Church provided satellite services to parts of Africa like Uganda where the people get to watch the service live and the church gets to keep all the offerings. It was also beamed live to parts of India like Goa and Gujerat. And now by listening to his CDs, New Creation Church has gone a step further by broadcasting its services on DayStar Television Network from Mondays to Fridays at 2:00pm in the United States. This speaks volumes about my former paster’s very very annointed preaching and healing services. People get blessed listening to Pastor Prince preach the right Gospel and they are no longer under bondage by the Law in the Old Testament. Jesus came to set us free, and we should read the New Testament of much promises, grace and God’s Blessings. Sometimes I wish we get to watch Pastor Prince live on TV in Malaysia like the Americans. They are so blessed.

Joseph Prince on DayStar Television Network
Author:
• Sunday, July 22nd, 2007

My former church in Singapore, New Creation Church is now on America’s DayStar television network reaching to 62 million people in the USA. The services are broadcast at 2:00pm from Mondays to Fridays and on a prime time channel at 9:00pm on every Thursdays.

Joseph Prince has become the leading voice for a new generation of believers who build their hope on the abundance of God’s grace and the gift of His righteousness. The senior pastor of New Creation Church — a 15,000-member church in Singapore — Joseph’s ministry as pastor, teacher and conference speaker has helped to set many people free from guilt and condemnation, and caused them to fall in love with Jesus afresh as they see His love, goodness and grace.

If you can, do watch his services at 2:00pm on USA’s DayStar Network and you will be immensely blessed and get experiential walk with our Lord Jesus Christ. When I bought his CDs online entitled “God’s Guarantee for your Prosperity”, it was dated some time in early May and there have been testimonies of people being very blessed after watching the channel for only 2 weeks already. You will move from the Law to God’s Favor and Grace. Be Greatly Blessed, Highly Favored and Deeply Loved.

Credit Card Services
Author:
• Thursday, July 19th, 2007

I cannot imagine life without credit cards. It has enabled me to make big purchases without having to carry too much cash around. Just a simple swipe of the card at credit card services access points will suffice to make the payment. The transaction is almost instant and the payment confirmed unless there is dispute. I am still waiting for my third credit card from Citibank and it seems they are a little delayed in sending out my card. I already have 2 principal credit cards for my convenient shopping. Every month, the statements are sent by post and I pay them by checks corresponding to the amounts owed for the period. And I get to collect points at the same time to redeem them for gifts while spending. Merchant accounts certainly allow even durian sellers take in higher payments and more purchases from buyers at road sites with the facilities.

Dream job
Author:
• Thursday, July 19th, 2007

I now have my dream job which is to work at home. It would even be better if I have my own place to stay for complete privacy. My full time job involves preparing quotations, processing emails, type faxes and answering phone calls. Since my voice is better now, my clients are able to hear me speak through the phone. It would be even better if I can post fewer opps while taking higher paid posts for my part time blogging. At the moment, I don’t have to get dressed to work at the office which is right at home. And it saves me petrol money from driving to work and make up.
