As you know this site has pretty much not been updated for a couple of months already. Been tired managing so many blogs at once. Anyway, I’m currently handling one blog at the moment which is my personal blog. So you can pretty much have a look at it here at http://www.alexjong.com. Thank you for dropping by here and see you at my new site :)
Lol, was trying to blog in Malay, but apparently I don’t know how to start. Anyway, yesterday Kuching was hit by a major storm and a few people especially those who were doing their business on the side walk was pretty much effected. Caused a few car alarms to ring, as well as some tables got toppled. What’s even worst was that our shop roof got blown away, and yes it leaked through the ceiling. Apparently Mum was upstairs, came down and told us as if something hit the roof. Probably we thought it could have been some of the wooden items we left upstairs, so we continued to wait for the rain to stop which was about close to 6.30 in the evening. After relieving myself from upstairs, I heard a dripping noise which I thought came from outside. And to my dismay, it sounded as it it came from my so called “home studio”. Continue reading »
Been pretty much busy lately as some of you might have known by now that I’ve registered a new company on the 20th June 2008 for 328tech.com. But it has to be name to T.T.E. Tech due to the fact that I couldn’t use numbers. So basically that was pretty much about it. Anyway, by right I am able to legally do business on that day, but my license will only come up by the end of this week. So what happened was that, I’ve received two clients in developing their website. Pretty cool for a start. So had to rush both of it to complete last week because they really wanted it ASAP.. But it’s all good. Some more with the charity project that was over yesterday. I ‘d say it was pretty much a good week for me :) Continue reading »
The funny thing about God is that sometimes He can pretty much remind you about a lot of things and you don’t need to worry too much with the world around you. While I was doing my usual morning walks around waterfront, I was pretty much troubled with the fuel price increase which could result to a lot of things. Which really mean have to cut down on unnecessary expenses, so I could sort of kiss my Tamron SP AF90mm F/2.8 Di 1:1 Macro good bye. Lol. Which isn’t really a problem actually, because I know there are people who are in much more worst condition than I am. Continue reading »
Everything is practically going up. I guess yesterday seems to be a history making event whereby the fuel price got jacked up from RM1.91 to RM2.70 per liter. Fuel going up, food also going up, not long electricity also going up. Everything is going up, is there anything going down? Well, the prices for my items here are going down, Kek Lapis (Layered Cake) going down whereby they used to sell about RM15-RM20 per loaf. Now it’s pretty much RM10 - RM15, and if you get 5 one time they can sell it to you at RM45. Apart from that, I’m not even sure what else is going down. Anyway, for the past 5 days I’ve been attending this Mortgage Reduction Camp which actually took 5 days to complete. So what in the world did I do there? Continue reading »
Unfortunately, there are times when customers comes in and of course they brought along their bundle of joy with them. Nothing wrong with that, just that it would be nice if they were to keep their hands where it belong and don’t simply go and make a wreck of the place. -_-” But probably we can’t put the blame on them because their parents don’t seem to bother what they do. Haiz how I wish I have a pet crocodile like this one to prolly scare the children if they dare to mess up the place. Messing up the place is still acceptable, but once they break something. They quickly put back the item as if nothing happened, if not their parents would say our items are useless. So easily to get broken. Continue reading »
After our visit to the gyne, Deluxe and myself went over to Eastmore cafe and had our breakfast there. Eastmore Cafe have been one of our regular place to eat for breakfast normally after church. So what we normally order was from this guy on the left, who is famous for his Fried Kueh Tiaw with Clams. Anyway, apparently his son is currently helping him to bring the food to the customers and collecting money. Well, this is may be considered child labor in certain country. But I guess it’s not a problem here in Malaysia. Considering the fact that we were thought to help out with our parents when we are able such us during school holidays or weekend when we are not schooling. What I’m amaze about this boy is that he has what you call the perfect service. In terms of good communication with the customers, and good work ethics. And he doesn’t seem to complain eating from his own father shop, whereby there might be some children may like to eat something different. When we were about to leave as well, while he was eating he did acknowledge and thanking us for purchasing from him.

While I was on the way to tapao lunch, I heard a sudden loud crackling sound. When I looked up, the sound actually came from the electrical cabling got a sudden burst of electricity. Without hesitation I quickly got the hell out from there, and watch a bit of fire works. Fortunately no one was hurt. Pretty much the major event for today :P
Unlike yesterday, apparently today everyone had done their surveying. So it was pretty much good considering the fact that business was better compared to yesterday. But like my father in law would always say “Something is always better than nothing”. Apart from a slow start, it suddenly change towards the evening….

The school holidays are here.. So we’re expected to see a lot of people coming in and out from the shop. Especially when Gawai holidays are here as well. So might see people coming. As for today, business been a little bit slow as of late. Whereby buyers now are pretty difficult to deal with, considering the fact they actually go to each and every shop to compare prices.
Ok. I don’t think I ever really made a proper introduction on my work place, as I just finally realized that I could actually blog about my shop :P This idea struck me while I was blogging about Poppies on my personal site. Plus whereby on this site seems a little bit stagnant. Hehehe. But it’s all good. Anyway, enough said.. On to business.
Situated at the heart of Main Bazaar, we are located just opposite the waterfront near to the police station. Here you would be able to find all sorts of Sarawak souvenirs from beaded items, textile, shells, wooden items, baskets and small items. We do sell Chinese Antiques dated all the way from the Tang Dynasty to Qing Dynasty. Continue reading »
