十年的COE到了，上个月把摩托车刹了，人又回到了步行加公共交通的模式。如此一来，好处是走路炼身的机会明显多了，但日程安排上显然没以前灵活了， 上下班路上的时间也比以前多了近一个小时。有时候，为了多走点路，回程中，就直接在出裕廊岛关卡处下车， 然后步行5-6公里， 换着路线走回家，到家出一身汗，刚好洗个澡休息。
总的来说，新加坡的公共交通还是蛮方便的，但是裕廊岛除外。于是，时不时地， 买车的想法和日程也就慢慢地提了上来。

Interviewed by LianHe Zaobao at SPH
Interviewed by Lianhe Zaobao on 01-Sep-2010 afternoon at SPH center, regarding the newly joined Singapore Citizenship. The journalist was much interested in the reason I became a Grassroots leader (RC member). It is to be published on newspapers on next Monday (6-Sep-10).
From recent news, due to some policy changes from government, compared with PR, the citizens are getting more subsidiaries in terms of school fee (from childcare center to university), medical cost, HDB housing loan, getting a maiden etc from early of Y2010, so more and more PRs are applying the citizenship which they may not consider before, and I am just one of them, maybe I add in one more strong reason – save the medical cost for my son.

Rolex watch
Today, together with friend, went to Hilton Singapore @ Orchard road (Sincere) to buy Rolex watch (S$14227 for 1 pairs after 16% discount, almost the cheapest pairs in the shop), over there, I got to know more about rolex.
1. price of Rolex in China 25% higher than it in Singapore due to higher tax;
2. They increase Rolex price 5 - 8% every year;
3. some of people who bought Rolex are not wearing the watch, just keep it at home like gold;

lost my mobile phone (Samsung Onmia 2)
I lost my mobile phone (Samsung Onmia 2) last friday in company (I bought it at cost of S$398 with 2 years' MIO plan on Jul 09), I believe i left it somewhere unattended and one of contractor took it. I called up Singtel hotline and terminated the service and they agreed me to bring forward the contract from next yeat and re-sign it at current promotional price. So I bought a new phone (Sony Ericsson C903) with renewal of 2 years' i-Oneplus plan at cost of S$188 this tuesday.

I joined RC (residential committee) as observer since Nov last year and experienced many activities for past 8 months. RC, the same title called JuWeiHui in China, but more active in getting people involved. I as a Singapore PR here and functioned as grassroot leader in pioneer zone 11, attend monthly meeting for updated info, participant in organizing activities (harmony racial day, national celebration, lantern festival…) for residents, sometime need to sell the tickets, hang national flag for others and weekly duty at RC office…
What do I get from RC?
- meet more people just stay nearby your house;
- know what is going on in this zone that you are living and get yourself involved;
- managing facility in the zone and you can meet more people;
- some benefitt for members
- others

1st time meeting in RC zone 11
I met with some of the RC (Resident Committee) leader mid of last year and put the application to join Pioneer Zone 11 RC as a Grassroot Leader later. No other reason, I just want to know how they maintain the HSE (Health, Safety & Environment) around the resident area and how they organize these activities for residents.
To me, the contents of the meeting is quite interesting, including a lot trivial matters, for examples: one cobra was caught finally; children fighting at study corner; bicycle stolen by someone; something put outside in an unsafe way; to identify needy family during economic downturn; open house for opening of Pioneer MRT station; happy birthday to 4 members; activities preparation for this year including 10th anniversary for zone 11; looking for suggesting and improvement etc.
For 1st 3 month, I am still not a formal member, and as an observer.

Happy New Year 2009
Happy New Year! We are at the beginning of the year of 2009 now. Wish everyone & myself has a very lucky, happy, and rewarding new year!
Here are some peronsal plans for 2009.
1. Making long term and big goals to accomplish in 2009. I always wanted to ask the question: "What did you accomplished in the previous year?" This is the test question that many of us, including myself, feel embarrased to answer. To make the 365 days collectively meaningful is more important than individual days, and seperate actions. Focus by eliminating goals. I know I am the typical P (Perceiving) type of person, who would like to follow my internal passion to anything that appears interesting to me. By focusing on several things that is really both important and meaningful, I believe I will have a better 2009.
2. Family commitment. Siyuan got illness with ALL, he need intensive treatment for next 10 months and a big amount of hopital bills are on the way. I need to overcome this period and bring him back to normal life.
3. Keep learning. "Live as if you would die tomorrow, learn as if you would live forever". I am going to 35 years old but sometimes I started to feel the tendency of keeping what I have been used to do, and resist in learning new things. No good trend. I believe I will keep learning about technical issues, planning & scheduling, management & leadership, and to live good life. I just want to keep shaping my characters to archive more (or more importantly, learning what real archivement means).
4. Be a good person in real life. This is a wired goal, but let me explain. I want to keep my friend and family circle closer, and smaller. In real life, I am a father, a husband, a son, and a friend. I need to make sure I take care of people around me first by spending more time (offline), celebrate holidays, and creating memories that we will remember in long run.
5. Excercise. I ignored excercised in 2008 and am getting fat year by year. It is the time to pick up my excercise routine (runing, playing badminton and swimming) and keep it top priority. I hope it can reduce my weight (targeting 5 kg weight loss) and make myself more healthy.
6. Finally, I want to be a good person, with good mind, and peaceful life. I want to archive more while keeping my personal life happier than ever.
The world around us was crazy in 2008 - with the natural disaster in China (snow, and earth quick), and financial crisis, and then the ressession, 2009 won't be another too sunny and bright year, and "change" maybe is the main topic for 2009. However, I always try to stand out of the daily life to get a sense of direction. I hope I would right more items than I did this year.
Again, happy new year!

Summary of My 2008
2008 was a tough year for me. Combining the pressure of family, and personal life,it was maybe the most exhausted year for me, and there was some important or milestone events in my life:
1. Settle new house in Singapore. HDB 4A room at Boon Lay extension, bought at 282k, and I believe the current market value at least 330k (based on latest transaction price from HDB site);
2. Fianicial crisis and stock market meltdown, it did cause a big paper loss from my stock profile, I don't expect it will recover soon;
3. Switch career from chemical sector to Power generation by changing job; in today's market condition, power generation should be safer than most of other industry;
4. Siyuan got illness with ALL after return from Shanghai, he need intensive treatment for next 10 months and continue to be treated for another 2 years;

HSE day in KMC
KMC achieved 2 millions working hours without LTI (lost time incidents), so celebration was held together with staffs from Keppel energy (HQ) in KMC, some interesting points,
1. two thirds of staffs from HQ are ladies, obviously they are not willing to come here, due to location (too far away from city), facility (sometime no signal for your mobile);
2. all KMC staffs and contractors were wearing same t-shirt with safety logo, and other were not, so activities were always separated into 2 group automatically;
3. I was more concern the presentation from our MD TG Ong, he mentioned one word many time – ‘integrated’, I agree it is the right way to go;
4. now the world is facing financial crisis, it is challenge for us and also opportunity for us to buy something at a cheaper price. For KE, ‘buy or make’ is not a easy dicision even we have enough cash and have a very strong balance sheet.

1st week in KMC
It has been 1 week since I since KMC (one of the power plant inside Jurong island), how is my feeling here compare with previous company – TPS,
1. different in working environment, I need to catch up knowledge and skills on gas turbine, steam turbine and HRSG (boiler);
2. need to catch up knowledge and skills on ECI (electrical, controlling and instrumentations) due to job requirements;
3. need to be expert on CMMS (Maximo from IBM), so far what observed, the system still not be well established here after almost 1 year’s implementation;
4. staff size in KMC is much smaller than that in TPS, only 34, it looks very tight;
5. the previous guy who stood in my position left KMC 6 months ago, a lot of things needs to catch up.
6. people are very nice here, but mobile signals (my one is Singtel) lost most of time due to remote location (12km away after Jurong Island checkpoint);
7. Longer working hour (0800 am – 0530 pm) than before (0800 – 0445 pm);
8. Power generation business still is new business for Kepcorp, and just started to contribute to Kepcorp from last year.

Same product, but much more different price because of different maker
Product from Shanghai - S$16;
Product from Hongkong - S$24;
put them together for sale in ShengSiong Supermarket, looks a bit funny, but it worth to think more... Maybe 60 years ago, they were under one roof in Shanghai.
Key words from Denny Swee
B.D.: burning desire
Motivation & enthusiasm
Building a successful business: sales; marketing; leadership
5 stages of marketing: a research stage; a strategic stage; a tactical stage; an implementation stage; an evaluation stage;
Maslow’s hierarchy of needs
Basics of marketing: know your customers & competitors; find your target market & positioning; develop a good marketing plan; how to create a great brand; pricing your products / service; internet; advertisement and promotion; grow your business;
7 realities of business & leadership: speed; market; grow customers; economic freedom; internet; commodity syndrome; change;
FEAR – false evidence appears real
