All over the world...*sigh*

From middle east to south east asia, from south east asia to down under....


I have been following news bout the bush fire since Semun informed me about it 2 weeks ago. Poor fella, but I bet now he's enjoying his time in Vietnam..hahhaha =)

As soon as I found out that the fire started somewhere in Boolarra, I was worried as I wondered what are the fate of the one family which I treat as my own in Boolarra, the Bricks...I was just hoping that they were fine.. still I sent an email to Samantha just to check them out. It was a relief to finally receive a reply two days ago.

Hi Danial

Thanks for your email and lovely to hear from you again.

Yes we are fine. The fires got to about 1 km away. Very scary.

So what are you doing this year?

Salaam

Samantha & family


Bushfire happens naturally in some forests in Australia comes summer. It is essential for this to happen as it is how the soil gets back the nutrients consumed by the trees in the forest, well, that is what I remember from my lesson in first year.

However this year bushfire has turned out to be "hell" as described by Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, and the authority in Victoria does not rule out the possibility that some of the fire that took place was an act of irresponsible human being. I could sense Kevin Rudd's bitterness and anger "What do you say? What do you say? ...."

I hope the people I know back in Gippsland are all safe, and my condolonce to those who lost their loved ones....

p/s: it was heartbreaking to see two elderly women broke in tears as they lost all their belongings and houses in the fire...after all the hard work..you see, owning a house in Australia costs a lot of money..well I don't know the correct term for the problem faced in paying mortgage there..so pardon my lack of vocab.....

Reconnect: My Journey Back to Blogging

 Hello, fellow travel enthusiasts and friends of Malaysian adventures! It's been an incredible journey, one that saw me take an unexpected hiatus from blogging for more than three years. Life happened (more like COVID happened) —responsibilities, changes, and personal growth—but one thing remained constant: my love for exploring the beauty and diversity of Malaysia. With power to put Dillan on my back, comes great responsibility! Today, I'm excited to announce my return to the world of  blogging. It's a bit like revisiting an old friend and reminiscing about unforgettable experiences. As I dust off my keyboard and sift through the memories of past travels, I can't wait to reconnect with all of you and share new adventures. Reflecting on the Past During my hiatus, I took the time to recharge, reflect, and embark on new journeys, both physically and emotionally. I've explored different aspects of life, including my passion for raising awareness about autism, delved de

Hang Tuah The Animation?

Woah, woah! Read this at beautifulnara about a three way agreements signed by Japanese anime studio Gonzo (Blood: The Last Vampire), Malaysian animation studio Funcel and Malaysia's National Film Development Corporation to produce Hang Tuah the animation! The protagonists....maybe? The antagonists...look so.. It sounds cool to me at first but I am being a bit skeptic about having non Malaysians to make an anime out of this legendary warriors, Hang Tuah and his friends. What more, I wonder are the voice actors gonna be Japanese too? I remember watching Silat Lagenda. That was awesome for our technology that time. But I think I shouldn't be all negative about Gonzo studio animating Hang Tuah because it's a collaboration....I think? Well, you guys can read more here and here . hehehehe
