KLIA Bagged It Again!!!

(Blog Update For January & News For March 2007)

The Airports Council International has once again given the "World's Best Airport Title" for 15-25 million passengers per annum to KLIA Airport, Malaysia's International Airport.

This award was received again for the 2nd consecutive time of which has put Singapore's Changi Airport at 4th place.

Was at KLIA with Jack for a random visit of the place on this brand new year!!! To our disapointment KLIA was almost dead in the afternoon. Traffic was very slow..oh well can't blame the airport tho...well unless if you were to compare the traffic here and the one at Changi airport @ Singapore - then that's a blast! Yep...Changi airport is always busy with inbound and outbound flights with so many international carriers flying in and out of the country. Wanna compare Malaysia to that...??? Well let's have our next guest writer "Jack|SQ" to write more about his opinion on this...as i am no expert in this field.

Wanna try out the Xmas tripledecker sandwich from O'briens???

My usual Tripledecker cheese toostie!!!

Jack|SQ: Looking at a distance, the paths that i take leads me to places that i go...

Let's spend some time calling those people whom we care for and wanna make 'em happy!

Here's Jack|SQ waiting together with others as he waits for my next light...

KLIA won the award again...but it's only for the 15-25 million passengers per annum.

The concept, the creativity - Malaysia we have it all...

Alone here looking at a far distance...thinking when,

SIA - Singapore International Airlines is part of the STAR ALLIANCE Networks, that is what makes them apart from many other airlines.

Jack|SQ: Ehh...finish edi la this update, what you lookin' at now arr??? go home - study... :P

Interviewing LIMP BIZKIT Guitarist...

(Blog Update For 9th March 2007)
(ON AIR - Picture on the left thanks to Jack|SQ)

Wes Borland, the guitarist for LIMP BIZKIT was here in Malaysia last friday for a special interview on Xfresh FM (Astro All Asia Networks PLC) and he's one of the judges for the YAMAHA Asian Beat Grand Finals Competition 2006/07.

I had the great honor to interview both Wes Borland and Kozo Suganuma here in the studio. Well for those who missed out on the interview, i should be getting the sound-bytes real soon and will post it up online...hopefully.

Thinking about this...way back in time...like in 1995,96,97...i was listening to Limp Bizkit and my classmates back in school were so into 'em...but OMG...i couldn't believe it that Wes Borland came down to KL and came over to the studio for an interview.

I'm still taller than Wes Borland himself!! :P

Funny pics just right before i asked him to laugh :P mwhhaha...

Trip to LCCT Air Terminal!!!

(Blog Update For New Year 2007)

It is a very low cost carrier terminal indeed...yep and i insist on the word "LOW COST". If you were there for yourself, you can really have a look at the structure of this airport and its facilities. No wonder they can get this place up and running in no time. It's just a matter of putting a few zinc elements together and put a nice big tv :P

Anyways, the LCCT terminal is just next to KLIA, but somehow to reach to the LCCT terminal it takes you another 20 or 30 minutes to reach the place as you have to make one whole big round and there's no direct route unless you were to go across the runaways at KLIA :P mwahhah...

Went to LCCT with one of Malaysia's Airport enthusiast :P haha...none other than Jack! He loves being in airports and all but i could tell from his face expression when we got there to LCCT he was so disapointed. It was our first time to be here at LCCT and we were so disapointed with the services, facilities, the structure and everything else about this airport. OMG...anyways why can't they just run both low cost carrier inside KLIA? Is there not enough place?

This is the front facade of the LCCT air terminal - look at how cheapo the structure is! (Picture taken by Jack|SQ - sorry for the wrong edit on caption).

Ok, here's pics of some fooooooddd!!!

Check-in counter here is so cheapo!!! Well no wonder it's called low-cost!!!

Ok this award was given in 2005 awarded by one of the Airport thingy majiggy...forgotten what it's called!

This is the LCCT air terminal...the floor kinda reminds me of jusco!

Here you can see the planes from near!!!

Malaysians simply don't understand the meaning of No Parking and No Waiting!

At least here we have Coffee Bean and Wi-Fi access!!!

Look at all the NS trainees going to sabah / sarawak for their training! Have to sit on the floor!! while waiting for their flight!

As i said earlier, it's very low cost indeed...they're using white board here!
