I just went to the launch of Kings and Queen of Comedy Asia 2011 few days ago and Oh my !!!

I haven't got such a good and hard laugh .... I was glad I went for the event despite not feeling well...amazing I feel better after that!!!

No wonder there is a proverb "Laughther is the best medicine"



Nadia Hadia was the MC for the day and she was sharing that the inagural show for Kings and Queen of Comedy Asia was back in Oct 2010 and it was a huge success and they are back in KL again with sold out shows in Malaysia and Singapore!



This year they are presenting 5 major comics from overseas and 2 Malaysians!!!

This Kings and Queen of Comedy Asia is a Stand-Up Comedy where it is a form of art and has grown only in recent time.

Let me introduced the comedians!


Sugar Sammy from Canada can fluent comedy in English, French, Punjabi and Hindi. His HBO Canada show was one of the network's highest rated TV Special.



Paul Ogata is a Japanese/Hawaiian lives in California is the funniest among all. He was crowned as the The Funniest Asian-American Comedian in US back in 2004

He speaks fluent Cantonese like all other Hongkies and everyone was shocked when he started speaking in Cantonese! His cantonese is better than mine ... and its not funny :(



Everyone knows him! Harith Iskander is Malaysia's premier stand-up comedians and he has performed for more than a decade!! Not only he is our country No 1. comedian, Harith is an accomplished , award winning fim director and writer too!

Since these people are the funniest group of comedians from Asia or of Asian descendants from around the world, I got to take some pictures with them !

Samsung Galaxy Note is a Powerful Little Monster I LOVE!!

As I mentioned earlier in my post Samsung Galaxy Note is available at the store starting 11 Nov 2011, and I managed to play it for a while..I must stress again that the phone is REALLY SLIM, LIGHT AND FAST!




Video taken from http://bit.ly/tolFIs

I love how PORTABLE is this Samsung Galaxy Note !!!
Super slim body 9.65mm
Weight at 176g
Big screen 5.3"

It is small & light but I like how it works like MONSTER... conquering my life!




Samsung Galaxy Note is a touchscreen phone, however often our fingers movement may not be precise as we would like it to be. Hence Samsung Galaxy Note S Pen (stylus) accessory is helpful in this sitution. Not only that, S pen allows us to do easily do sketching, drawings or write task notes on S Memo. Also, the S Pen functionality is deeply integrated into the GALAXY Note’s native applications to provide a richer business experience.




Watch the S Pen Experience
(Video taken from http://bit.ly/Note-SPen)




I like how Touch screen + S Pen will complement each other! This is a perfect combination!

Now when I have an idea ...not only I can type, but I can take a picture, do voice recordings, typed text, handwritten notes or drawings as well.. all this can be captured into S Memo!




Watch how S Pen and S Memo are made perfectly for each other.
(Video taken from http://bit.ly/rsP915)

This S Pen is perfect for me because I always have a habit of doodling on paper whenever I'm free or *daydreaming*... but then it's not environmental friendly because end up I throw it away after that. Thanks to Samsung S Memo function, I can doodle anywhere .. and most importantly drawing on S Pen is like drawing on paper without cutting down any tree at all!



Another function which I realy like in Samsung Galaxy Note is S Planner!

The S Planner, provides you the tools to manage complicated schedules in an easy and intuitive way.

To be honest, I am a person who rely 100% on my planner and if my planner is missing *touchwood*...I will be lost cat honestly!! However I find it too troublesome to carry my planner book around especially when I'm using a small handbag. So nowadays I am switching to handphone planner but then I really MISS the feeling of writing down my schedule!




Video taken from http://bit.ly/spm3uR

I like how I can write down my schedule on S Planner rather than typing it because it feel more personalised!

With so many functions & features, how can one not love this stylish Samsung Galaxy Note ?


Are you guys getting this little Samsung Galaxy Note monster too ?



p/s: Now I'm trying to save my money to get this little monster!

I want Samsung Galaxy Note, Check out the 6 reasons why !

Samsung Galaxy Note has finally hit the Malaysian shore!! I have been eyeing for it since it was being launched!

It has everything I wanted for because not only it's a powerful smartphone but it is a powerful small tablet... a perfect combination of 2 in 1 in Samsung Galaxy Note!!!


Here are some of features/specification of Samsung Galaxy Note that makes me wants this phone so much!!

And let me starts with the 6S that captured my heart !

1) SCREEN

It is 5.3-inch, (1280x800) High Definition Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors (~285 ppi pixel density) and display with a 180-degree viewing angle. And everything is super bright and colours stand out brilliantly on this Samsng Galaxy Note!

This is the largest Super AMOLED display ever fitted to a mobile device, with this huge screen I can watch videos and surf the net anywhere with ease !!

I think I can do blogging On-the-Go !!!

2) SIZE

Size does matter!


Even with 5.3 inch screen, Samsung Galaxy Note is just 9.65mm in thickness! You will be shocked that it is only 1mm more thicker than Samsung Galaxy S2 and it is portable than a tablet!

I love how thin and big the display is ~ it is like how the name suggested a Note-pad, but except this is a digitial one


3) SPEED

Nothing is more important than Speed, and bear in mind Samsung Galaxy Note processor is a dual-core, 1.4GHz mode and this one of the world's most powerful smartphone ! Multitasking will be effortless at your fingertips!

And it comes in 16GB or 32GB of internal storage, and networking support includes HSPA+ for high-speed 3G and 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi.



4) SYSTEM

The Samsung Galaxy Note operating system is Android 2.3, aka Gingerbread with Samsung's TouchWiz interface sitting on top. Samsung has also included its own Social Hub, which integrates email, SMS and contacts, and you get a program called S Planner too. This program integrates the phone's to-do list and calendars, and we'd assume it's S Pen-friendly too.

With Samsung Galaxy Note dual-core, 1.4GHz mode and Android 2.3 , I will be able to download a movie, read emails and running applications in the backkground and yet the phone is still responsive!!! How awesome !!



5) SHOOT

How can we live without a camera phone ? We carry out phone everywhere and we want to shoot every single moment of our life and upload it and share it with the world immediately!

Samsung Galaxy Note camera gives you every singele you can see ! With the main rear camera at 8 MP with LED Flash and Front camera at 2 MP.

All girls love the Beauty Shot function where our skin will appeared "flawless"in the picture .. no photoshop or editing needed !!



6)STYLUS

Although the Samsung Galaxy Note is a touchscreen smartphone it has also includes a stylus called the S Pen. This pressure-sensitive stylus enables you to scribble on screen, edit photographs, send handwritten notes and communicate via Samsung's ChatON communication service.

How awesome with this, I can easily draw a map for my lost friend rather than explaining it in writing to my friends..and also quite stylish to use Stylo !!

Above 6S is some of my favourite things I love about Samsung Galaxy Note...

I believe Samsung Galaxy Note has something for everyone!

Let's see what these owners say when they unbox their Samsung Galaxy Note! So envy of them able to Samsung Galaxy Note!

Review : Himalaya Organique Exfoliating Walnut Face Scrub


I am always a big fan of scrub and mask because of the almost immediate effect I could see and feel after using it . Today I am happy to share my views on this Himalaya Organique Exfoliating Walnut Face Scrub which I received for review .

I was told Himalaya Organique is different from their usual Himalaya range because

1) Himalaya Organique has EcoCert certification which means it has 95% natural ingredients in the finished product.

2) Himalaya Organique products are not tested on animals and it has the “leaping bunny logo” i.e. cruelty-free certification as well.

3) The packaging is biodegradable and recyclable.

4) Himalaya Organique products are free from Parabens, Sodium Lauryl Sulphates and Sodium Laureth Sulphates (SLS and SLES), Phthalates, Petroleum and its derivatives a, silicones, synthetic fragrances or artificial colors.

5) Cold pressed method is used to extract the oils so that the potent anti-aging compounds are preserved.

p/s: Just to share that even before this, I am a big fan of Himalaya products because it's affordable and effective and who say organic product are expensive to use?




A little info of
Himalaya Organique Exfoliating Walnut Face Scrub
A gentle scrub with extract of Walnut and Woodapple that exfoliates blackheads, dead skin cells and deeply embedded impurities. Organic Aloe and Organic Bael moisturize and soothe your skin leaving it soft, supple and radiant.



Ingredients: Vegetable glycerin (from vegetable oils), water (aqua), decyl glucoside (from palm kernel oil and sugar), silica (natural minral from earth crust), kaolin (natural mineral), juglans regia (english walnut) shell powder, phyllanthus emblica (amla) fruit extract, benincasia cerifera (winter melon) fruit extract, xanthan gum (from corn and soy), potassium sorbate (sorbus cashmiriana berries), citric acid (citrus fruits), aegle marmelos (bael tree), fruit extract, melia azadirachta (neem) leaf extract, tocopherol (natural vitamin E), limonia acidissima (indian woodapple) shell powder, myristica fragrans (nutmeg) shell powder*, origanum majorana (sweet marjoram) leaf oil*, zingiber officinale (ginger) root oil*, myristica fragrans (nutmeg) kernel oil*, cinnamomum zeylanicum (cinnamon) leaf oil, pogostemin cablin (patchouli) oil*, ocimum basilicum (basil) oil*, geraniol, linalool.

* = Organic
Contains essential oils and organic extracts. Slight color and scent variation may occur between batches but product effectiveness is uncompromised.



Comes in a tube form



Texture : Scrub made from fine granules made from walnut seed and woodapple

Scent : Very nice fruity scent, Love the scent!

My Review : I followed the instruction and wet my face before applying the scrub. Roughly a 20 cent size of scrub is sufficent for my whole face. My first feeling is that the scrub smell really very fruity and yummy that I feel like wanting to eat them :P However I do notice their granules is not that fine as it claimed. However it is fine with my skin as I gently scrub it all over my skin. After few minutes of good scrub I wash it off with water. Note the granules did not melt with water. After I raise my face off with water, I can feel my face texture is immediaely softer. I realised that with twice a week regime with this scrub, my blackhead/whiteheads prone areas are clear! Do note that do not scrub your face too long with this scrub although it smells yummy because you might be a bit drying on your skin if you scrub it for too long (especially for people with dry skin)
Pros : Smells yummy, face feel softer after use, my blackhead/whiteheads prone areas are clear, certified by Ecocert , free from arabens, Sodium Lauryl Sulphates and Sodium Laureth Sulphates (SLS and SLES), Phthalates, Petroleum,.. and good value for money

Cons : Granules are not very fine so scrub gently, might be a bit drying on your skin if you scrub it for too long (especially people with dry skin)

Himalaya Organique Exfoliating Walnut Face Scrub is selling at RM39.90 for 150ml and available at the selected Watson's outlet and in their Himalaya boutiques.

Turkish Culinary and Cultural Week 2011


In conjunction with the 88th Anniversary of the Republic of Turkey, I was lucky to be invited by Turkey Tourism and Information Office in Malaysia to celebrate and commemorate the occasion by hosting Turkey Culinary and Cultural Week 2011.



It was organized in close collaboration with the Official Hotel and Event Partner, the Royale Chulan Hotel of Kuala Lumpur and event sponsors Etihad Airways and Ravika Olive Oil. Turkish Culinary and Cultural Week 2011 was held from 28th October to 4th November 2011 at the Royale Chulan Hotel, KL.

Mr Ali Gulen , the Cultural and Toursim Attache of the Tourism and Information Office of the Embassy of the Republic of Turket in Malaysia said that they have flown in an entourage of 23 people comprising of chefs, dancers, musicians and Turksish craftmen including calligrahists and well-known EBRU or paper marbling expert Mustafa Erkan for the week.


At the event we are entertained by Turkish band playing Turkish classical music.


"Mevlevi ritual dance (sema), folk dance and rhythm show.



I can't help to notice how interesting and colourful are their traditional costume!



Looked at the details! Everything is so colourful and making me thinking that Turkey must be a happy place to be in!




Anyway I was hoping to win the lucky draw at the event, where 2 return air-tickets to Turkey, sponsored by Etihad Airways and a 4d3n accomodation in a 4 star hotel in Istanbul, courtesy of the Turkish Tourism and Information Office in Malaysia! BUT NO LUCK!


Instead the flamboyant Kee Hua Chee won it !! And just a few minutes ago, he was sharing to the crowds his Turkey trips and I think he been there for at least 7th times !


Anonther member of the media won it !

Ah... no luck!! Because it has been years that I really wanted to visit Turkey!

Anyway I head on try the fine samples from Turkish cuisine to compensate my sadness!

Chefs who came all the way from Turkey!


The food was yummy !!!

This was served everyday between 18.30 and 21:00 everyday during the Turkish Culinary and Cultural Week... So any of you managed to try ?


Not forgetting the freshly brewed Turkish coffee!
I must admit this is good although I'm not a coffee expert!!



Not forgetting the Turkish ice-cream made from goat milk! See the way how he cut it !



Looked how happy am I and this is the evidence how good it is!

I like how the ice-cream was chewy, not melting that fast and the sweetest of the goat milk!

p/s:A little confession, I think I had THREE .... because it was so so so good!!!



Apart from that, there is a demo of traditional Calligraphy and Traditionl Truskish Art Ebru!




The Tukish Calligraphists!

This something very interesting ! Not sure if some of you have seen this before ?

This is Ebru Art Master Mustafa Erkan !


Looked how he did the flowers!

Simple explaination from Wikipedia on Turkish Marbling Art(Ebru):
A shallow tray filled with water, and various kinds of ink or paint colors are carefully applied to the surface with an ink brush. Various additives or surfactant chemicals are used to help float the colors.


See how magically the colours were transferred to the paper!


A very beautiful and unique art!

And I got this as a souvenir! Was lucky to get this from the event because I was told that this is going to be expensive if I were to get this from Turkey!



Turkish famous Blue Eyes!

It was believe to give protection and give good luck to people who wears it!


A great pleasure to meet Mr Yasin again! He is a very friendly person and I have met him a few times due to my work in my previous company but never got a chance to take a picure with him and now through blogging I met him again and manged to snap a photo!


After the event, I was sure that I will visit Turkey on of this day!

Anyone wants to join me?
