亲爱的悟空，我这封信写的很慢，因为知道你看字不快。我们已经搬家了，不过地址没改，因为搬家的时候把门牌带来了。这礼拜下两次雨，第一次下3天，第二次下4天。昨天我们去买比撒，店员问我要切成8片还是12片，我说8片就成了，12片吃不完。我给你寄去件外套，怕邮寄时超重，把扣子剪下来放口袋里了。嫦娥生了，因为不知道是男是女，所以不知道你是该当舅舅还是阿姨。最后告诉你本来想给你寄钱。可是信封已经封上了。
新年快到了,别忘了给孩子们讲讲很久很久很久以前的事：那时候天还是蓝的，水也是绿的，庄稼是长在地里的，猪肉是可以放心吃的，耗子还是怕猫的，法庭是讲理的，结婚是先谈恋爱的，理发店是只管理发的，药是可以治病的，医生是救死扶伤的，拍电影是不需要陪导演睡觉的，照相是要穿衣服的，欠钱是要还的，孩子的爸爸是明确的，结婚了是不能泡MM的 ，看完不转发出去是要被打屁股的

北京欢迎您
福娃是北京2008年第29届奥运会吉祥物，其色彩与灵感来源于奥林匹克五环、来源于中国辽阔的山川大地、江河湖海和人们喜爱的动物形象。福娃向世界各地的孩子们传递友谊、和平、积极进取的精神和人与自然和谐相处的美好愿望。
福娃是五个可爱的亲密小伙伴，他们的造型融入了鱼、大熊猫、奥林匹克圣火、藏羚羊以及燕子的形象。
每个娃娃都有一个琅琅上口的名字:“贝贝”、“晶晶”、“欢欢”、“迎迎”和“妮妮”，在中国，叠音名字是对孩子表达喜爱的一种传统方式。当把五个娃娃的名字连在一起，你会读出北京对世界的盛情邀请“北京欢迎您”。
福娃代表了梦想以及中国人民的渴望。他们的原型和头饰蕴含着其与海洋、森林、火、大地和天空的联系，其形象设计应用了中国传统艺术的表现方式，展现了中国的灿烂文化。
将祝福带往世界各个角落
很久以来，中国就有通过符号传递祝福的传统。北京奥运会吉祥物的每个娃娃都代表着一个美好的祝愿：繁荣、欢乐、激情、健康与好运。娃娃们带着北京的盛情，将祝福带往世界各个角落，邀请各国人民共聚北京，欢庆2008奥运盛典。
贝贝传递的祝福是繁荣。在中国传统文化艺术中, “鱼” 和 “水” 的图案是繁荣与收获的象征，人们用“鲤鱼跳龙门”寓意事业有成和梦想的实现,“鱼”还有吉庆有余、年年有余的蕴涵。
贝贝的头部纹饰使用了中国新石器时代的鱼纹图案。贝贝温柔纯洁，是水上运动的高手，和奥林匹克五环中的蓝环相互辉映。
晶晶是一只憨态可掬的大熊猫，无论走到哪里都会带给人们欢乐。作为中国国宝，大熊猫深得世界人民的喜爱。
晶晶来自广袤的森林，象征着人与自然的和谐共存。他的头部纹饰源自宋瓷上的莲花瓣造型。晶晶憨厚乐观，充满力量，代表奥林匹克五环中黑色的一环。
欢欢是福娃中的大哥哥。他是一个火娃娃，象征奥林匹克圣火。欢欢是运动激情的化身，他将激情散播世界，传递 更快、更高、更强的奥林匹克精神。欢欢所到之处，洋溢着北京2008对世界的热情。
欢欢的头部纹饰源自敦煌壁画中火焰的纹样。他性格外向奔放，熟稔各项球类运动，代表奥林匹克五环中红色的一环。
迎迎是一只机敏灵活、驰骋如飞的藏羚羊，他来自中国辽阔的西部大地，将健康的美好祝福传向世界。迎迎是青藏高原特有的保护动物藏羚羊，是绿色奥运的展现。
迎迎的头部纹饰融入了青藏高原和新疆等西部地区的装饰风格。他身手敏捷，是田径好手，代表奥林匹克五环中黄色的一环。
妮妮来自天空，是一只展翅飞翔的燕子，其造型创意来自北京传统的沙燕风筝。“燕”还代表燕京(古代北京的称谓)。妮妮把春天和喜悦带给人们，飞过之处播撒“祝您好运”的美好祝福。
天真无邪、欢快矫捷的妮妮将在体操比赛中闪亮登场，她代表奥林匹克五环中绿色的一环。

Fernandes Tries to Change 'Top-Down' Culture He Sees
Among Managers in Asia
By CRIS PRYSTAY
Malaysian Tony Fernandes founded AirAsia, Asia's first low-cost
carrier, in 2001 and expanded the company by setting up joint-venture
airlines in Thailand and Indonesia. Mr. Fernandes, 42 years old,
graduated from the University of London in 1987 with a finance degree
and in 1992 moved back to Malaysia, where he became managing director
of Warner Music Malaysia, and later, vice-president of Warner's
Southeast Asian operations. He quit in 2001 to start AirAsia.
One of Malaysia's most outspoken business executives, Mr. Fernandes
not only has strong ideas on the way airlines should be run, but also
how Southeast Asia's top-down corporate culture should change. He
spoke to reporter Cris Prystay about his style.
WSJ: What was your first job and what did you learn from it?
Mr. Fernandes: My first job was a waiter in London at the Cavendish
Hotel. I was 17. I learned that working was hard and you had to be
professional, even as a waiter. You had other colleagues. If my
performance was poor, it let down the whole team.
My first [career] job was as an accountant at an auditor in London. It
was mind-blowingly boring. I was a junior auditor and was photocopying
and adding up rows of columns. The big lesson there: make sure you go
into a job that you enjoy. Otherwise, you don't give any value to your
employer, and you certainly don't add any value to your own mind.
WSJ: Who gave you the best business advice?
Mr. Fernandes: It was probably Stephen Shrimpton (the former chief
executive officer of Warner Music International) at Warner. I was a
man in a rush. I was 28 when I became the managing director of Warner
Music Malaysia, and I wanted to be the regional MD. I wanted to take
over the world.
One night, Steve talked to me outside the Sheraton Hotel in Hong Kong
for three hours. He told me there's no need to rush and that it's
about developing my own personality and making sure I'm ready for the
next job. I see that now: No matter how bright someone is at 25,
there's nothing like experience. He slowed me down, and made me
understand that you need to take time -- to understand the business
better, to understand your people better.
WSJ: What's the one thing you wish every new hire knew?
Mr. Fernandes: Humility -- and knowing what the real world is like.
The new generation is coming in pretty soft. A lot of these young guys
haven't lived through a recession. There are plenty of jobs out there
and they think, "I can always walk into another job." The hunger and
determination to do their best is sometimes not there.
WSJ: Is there a difference between the management culture in Asia and
the West?
Mr. Fernandes: The management culture here is very top-down. There's
less creativity and fewer people who are willing to speak out. They're
more implementers than doers. There's less freedom of speech, and that
impacts the business world. Even when they know things are not right,
they won't speak out. They just do what they're told to do.
WSJ: What's the biggest management challenge you face?
Mr. Fernandes: To get people to think. At AirAsia, we want 4,000
brains working for us. My biggest challenge is to get people to talk,
to express themselves, to get people to challenge me and say "Tony,
you're talking rubbish." That's what I want, not people who say "Yes,
sir." The senior management doesn't have all the answers. I want the
guy on the ramp to have the confidence to tell me what's wrong.
WSJ: What are you doing to clear that hurdle?
Mr. Fernandes: We have no offices. We dress down. You wear a suit, and
you put distance between you and your staff. We're on a first-name
basis. I go around the office, around the check-in desks, the planes
constantly, talking to people. Fifty percent of my job is managing
people in the company. You get people to open up to you by just asking
them to do it, and then responding to them. You don't send a memo, or
do some "speak up" incentive program. It's got to be from the heart.
WSJ: What was the most satisfying decision you've made as a manager?
Mr. Fernandes: Once a month, I carry bags with the ramp boys, or I'm
cabin crew, or at the check-in. I do this to get close to the
operation. I also want to know my people. When I first started this, I
met all these bright kids at the check-in or carrying bags. We were
starting this cadet pilot program, and I said, "Let's open it up to
anyone. Let some of these kids apply." They have the brains, but they
just didn't have the money to get the education. Out of the first
batch of 19 cadets, 11 came from within the company. Some of these
boys got the highest marks ever in the flying academy. There was one
kid who joined us to carry bags, and 18 months later he was a First
Officer of a 737. Can you imagine what that does for the motivation in
the company? Everyone talks about developing human capital, but we did
it.

Marriage? No Way!
80 per cent of Malaysian women will wait after 30, says survey
R. Sonia
KUALA LUMPUR, Sat. The results of this survey are sure to bring forth a howl
of protests from many women.
They may not find fault with the finding that 80 per cent of women
professionals between the ages of 25 and 40 prefer to marry after 30 or not
at all.
But they are likely to take umbrage at the reasons given for this: A lack of
sexual desire, career priorities, infertility and a search for rich
husbands.
And that while they want their husbands to spend on them, they refuse to
share their salaries with their husbands.
This is what a survey of 200 women professionals by the University of
Malaya’s Centre for Family Development (UMCFD) shows.
But, there is no reason for the men to smirk.
A Universiti Malaya lecturer and licensed counsellor not connected with the
survey says the reason women are not interested in marrying is because there
is a lack of "men of quality" in the country.
UMCFD director Professor Dr Abdul Rahim Abdul Rashid said the reason
professional women lacked sexual desire was that they were very tired after
work and were too preoccupied with their careers.
"Our survey shows that sexual desire in professional women is rather low,"
he added.
Rahim said a shift in priorities from marriage to education and career as
well as the lack of suitable marriage candidates was another factor.
"More and more women pursue educational and career development. As a result,
when they are ready for marriage, there are very few available single
professional men.
"As everyone knows, there are more women in institutions of higher learning
than men. So naturally there are fewer professional men than women, which is
another problem.
"The practical thing would seem to be to allow professional men to marry
more than one, but this would definitely not be a good solution."
A career, he said, meant a lot to women as it symbolised independence.
"Among the Malays, the women chase careers to be able to help out their
families.
"Eighty per cent of Malay women feel an indebtedness to their parents and
feel the need to be financially secure to be able to contribute to the
family."
Another factor, said Dr Rahim, was the professional woman’s expectation that
the future husband’s income be in the RM10,000 to RM20,000 bracket.
However, he said, the women did not believe in sharing their salaries with
their husbands.
"Eight out of 10 women surveyed said they will refuse to share their money
with their husbands, saying it was their money, while the husband is still
expected to take care of all the household expenses.
"This will lead to men starting to wonder if they can afford to do so. In
fact, there is a trend developing where professional men are starting to
stay single.
"There are many unmarried women around who they can hook up with as it is
common in urban societies for couples to practise free sex without the
strictures and morality of marriage."
He said feminist movements had also become more vociferous, with women more
aware of their rights.
The study also found that women in Kelantan and Terengganu felt sexually
superior if they had been married a few times.
"Most women there marry two or three times," he said, adding that one reason
women in the two states divorced and remarried was because men were not able
to provide financially for their wives.
He said women also chose not to marry because of medical problems —
including infertility — social status and frustration due to previous failed
relationships.
The practice of same sex relationships, said Rahim, also contributed to this
problem.
If these issues were left unchecked, he said, the country would be beset
with social problems and the population would decline.
Meanwhile, University Malaya lecturer and counsellor Hushim Salleh said
women were not interested in marrying because "men of quality" were lacking
in the country.
"Many men now are involved in drugs and are gay or soft. I do marriage
counselling and 80 women have registered with me to help them find husbands,
but only three men registered to find wives."
Hushim said parents must bring up their male children properly and ensure
they did not engage in "disruptive gender activities".
Another problem for professional women, he said, was that men had
inferiority complexes and did not like marrying women more qualified than
them.
The absence of family pressure was another reason women were choosing to
marry late or not marry, said Hushim.
"Parents are now more understanding when their daughters don’t marry as they
know they will be able to take care of themselves."
Both Dr Rahim and Hushim will be among more than 30 local and international
speakers at a "Philosophy of Marriage" seminar on March 29-30 at University
Malaya.

Lesson on Life (forwarded email)
Lessons on Life
There
was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge
things
too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look
at a
pear tree that was a great distance away.
The first son went in the
winter, the second in the spring, the third in
summer, and the
youngest son in the fall.
When they had all gone and come back, he called
them together to describe
what they had
seen.
The
first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted. The second son
said no it was
covered with green buds and full of promise.
The third son
disagreed; he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so
sweet
and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever
seen.
The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and
drooping
with fruit, full
of life and fulfillment.
The
man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they
had
each seen but only one season in the tree's life.
He told them that you
cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season,
and that the essence
of who they are and the pleasure, joy, and love that come
from that life can
only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.
If you
give up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring,
the
beauty of your summer, fulfillment of your fall.
Moral:
Don't
let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.
Don't judge life
by one difficult season.
Persevere through
the difficult patches
and better times
are sure to come some time or later

Are You a 'Value-Added' Employee? (www.SpeakingAboutWork.com)
What is your focus when you go to work? Are you thinking "What can I give
today?" or "What can I get?" Both questions are important, however, the former
will get you further faster. It's that simple.
Often, when I am consulting with a company or team, the hew and cry is "The
company/ management does not do enough for me/us." This may certainly be true,
however, my first question is the opposite, 'What are you doing for the
company/management?'. That's the way the equation works best. You give and then
you get. Strangely, that's the way it works best in any relationship. Have you
noticed that?
What you pay attention to expands. If you are focused on what you think you
are not getting, that overshadows everything. Attitudes shift and conversations
turn into whining sessions. Soon, morale dips and everyone is complaining.
Often, the complaints have grown completely out of proportion and no one
remembers why they were attracted to the company in the first place.
You can change this. Be a 'value-added' employee. Build your strengths rather
than focusing on company weaknesses. What a concept! You choose your focus and
attitude. You choose how you use your time. You choose your perceptions and
perspectives. Use that power to become 'value-added'!
Now, I'm not talking about giving 'til it hurts. No, I'm talking about the
way you use your energy to focus on your career path. Sure, there are employers
who devour employees and spit them out spent, burned out and disillusioned. They
exist. If you're working for one of those...and examine it carefully to be
sure...move on.
I am talking about your choices to create the career you want. How do you
want to be seen in the workplace? How does your current position further your
progress towards your goals? Why did you choose it? What is your plan and how
can you best follow that blueprint in your present position? Be pro-active in
your own life.
How do you want to be seen in the workplace? As competent, confident and
valuable, or, as adequate, mediocre and expendable? Unless you are working for
Attila, the Hun, the way folks see you is mostly in your control. Good employees
come to work on time, do their tasks well, and cause few waves. Great employees
do all that and more. They are focused on the company's mission and vision. They
can be excellent team-players and excellent leaders when needed. They are clear
about their own purposes and visions and know why they have chosen to work where
they work. They care about others and help them to achieve their goals. They do
these things because it clearly moves them further along their career paths. It
is in their own best interest to do so. They have their 'eyes on the prize'.
Here are a few secrets. Many folks would rather complain about things than
fix them. By being a 'fixer', you are being 'value-added'. Many folks would
rather find fault than good. By catching people doing things well and commenting
on it, you are being 'value-added'. Many folks would rather see what they can
get away with than see what they can give. By giving just a little more than
expected, you honor yourself and you are being 'value-added'. Many folks would
rather feel 'done wrong' than state their needs and boundaries. By being clearly
communicating what you need and want, you are saving time and energy...and being
'value-added'.
Which side of these equations are you working from? Only one will get you
where you want to go...although you'll have much more company on the other. Your
choice!

80's babies (from my old friend)
For your reading pleasure...some might be
true.
Hope you will all enjoy reading it. This might bring you back the old
memory especially during those school days.....
Signs that you are a 80s' baby:
You grew up watching G-Force, He-man, Transformers, Thundercats,
Silver Hawk, Woody Woodpecker, Chipmunks and Mickey Mouse. Not to
forget Ninja Turtles, Mask, Smurfs and Voltron too.
Girls watched Japanese cartoon like My Little Pony, "Xiao Tian Tian",
"Hua Xian Zi" etc.
You grew up brushing your teeth with a mug in primary school after
recess time.
You squatted by a drain with all your classmates beside you, and
brushed your teeth with a colo urful mug.
Remember the days when the school nurse, comes with a list for the
! dentist appointment, the sound of the drilling when your friend has a
fill in his tooth.
You remember the packets of milk we get in primary school to
encourage us to drink more milk. (It is only cost 30 cent per pack)
In secondary school, girls go to the library to borrow their
favourite romance storybook.
In secondary school, girls altered their school skirt to shorten it
and guys will go to the school appointed school uniform tailor shop
to tailor make their school trousers to the then fashionable "baggy
pants"!
During primary school days, the teacher will punish you using a ruler
to hit your palm.
A bowl of noodles soup cost only 30cent in primary school days.
When you were in primary school, girls like to go to the bookshop to
buy cute stuff such as animal erasers, various shape sharpeners,
colourful notebook etc.
Hankyu Jaya, Yaohan departmental stores used to be a favourite
hangout for families dur! ing weekends.
In secondary school days, you buy the Bata BM Turbo or Pallas Jazz
school shoes.
Some guys like to wear those china made ankle high shoes.
Some even like to wear those very thick socks with their school
shoes.
Internet? E-mail? What the hell is that?
So you thought a decade or more ago, your friends don't have pagers
or handphones in school.
CDs? What's that? Cassette tapes were the norm. Movie tickets used to
cost less than $5 last time.
The goodies from Mama shop used to be Chickerdis, Mamee , Kum Kum,
UFO, O-Ya, Ding Dang chocolate balls with toys in the box, colourful
hard "egg",
"cigerette" bubble gum, KIKI Bubble Gum, pink bottle of bubbles
c/w a
small tubes with yellow sticks to blow "more lasting" bubbles
that
you can pop more air in or slam it on.
You never forget 'Ti Kam'.
When exams are over, the board games (e.g Monopoly,
Donkey, Transportation Comparison Card) & held ! video games will be
all over the class room.
Your favourite sound is the bell!
For it's the homemade ice cream man. The cream that tops Haagan Dazs!
And the other peddler you love is the old lady who sells juicy Muah
Chee and thick olden syrup rolled in a balloon the tip of a chopstick
stick.
Another bell is the recess bell, a time to get away from school work
and to eat.
Another time when there is no bell but all guys will anxiously wait
for it...The PJ (Pendidikan Jasmani), PE time (time for football)
Your favourite childhood games were playing "gu li"(marbles),
five
stones, five bottle cover, zero-point, catching, "Pepsi-Cola one two
three" and/or "Police & Sentry"!
The best thirst quencher of all times is the yummy colourful ice
tubes you can buy from provision shops for only 10 cent. To eat them,
break the tab and suck
while holding the freezing tube!
All gals have a girl doll/strawberry shortcake/my little pony/pound
puppy, while all boys have a soldiers figurine (combat) or a rubber
band catapult
that shoots folded paper!
Once was the era whereby ice-cream sticks were valueable items, then
came the paper aircrafts, chalk fights.
Some boys made their own guns from wood, and used 'Bacali' as the
bullets.
Some even used matches to shoot and burn kids'lanterns during
MoonCake Festival.
And your favourite holiday was Lunar New Year! New clothes, Ang Pows,
shopping, junk food and family outings!
Let's see, the majority of students in universities today were born
in 1987 / 88.... They are called "youth".
For them, they have never heard of the song "We are the World, we
are
the Children..." And the "Uptown Girl" they know is by 'West
Life'
but not 'Billy Joel'.
For them, there have always been only one Germany and only one
Vietnam.
AIDS exists since they were born.
CD exists since they were born.
Michael Jackson is already whitened.
John Travolta is always round in shape and they can't imagine how
this fat guy could be a god of dance.
They believe that Spiderman and Incredible Hulk are just new films.
They can never imagine a black and white screen for a computer.
They never know what is Atari or 'Game & Watch'.
They can't believe a black and white television ever existed and they
don't even know how to switch on a TV without a remote control.
And they never understand how we can go out without a mobile phone
when we were in university...
Let's check if we're getting old...
1. You understand what was written above and you smile.
2. Most of your secondary school friends are getting married.
3. You are always surprised to see small children playing comfortably
with computer.
4. When you see teenagers with mobile phones, you shake your head.
5. You spend less and less time talking on phone with your friends
daily.
6. When you meet your old friends from time to time, talking about
the good old days, repeating again and again all funny stories you
experienced together.
7. Lastly, having read this mail, you are thinking of forwarding it
to some other old friends. You think they will like it too.....
Hahaha!.... Yes! We are getting old too...........
Brings back old memories huh?
Cheers to the 80s babies!!!
