The speaker, Mr Oon Yeoh started off the discussion by pointing out the role of new media in the last election, has been overstated as there was limited direct access (<50%) to the internet. However, the secondary access, e.g. downloading and printing out, SMS, WOM etc has a much greater impact on the electoral.
However it is not deniable that internet media made people like Jeff Ooi possible others include Tony Pua, Elizabeth, Nik Azmi etc – people know them because they are bloggers. He stressed thatin the next election in 2012, it is a long time in technology, broadband would be widely accessible and sophisticated phone would allow everyone to have direct access to new media, hence bring about a true political war in the cyber space.

The talk was hosted by Dato’ Dr Lim Thuang Seng. Speaker Dato’ Seri Yuen Yuet Lin in his youth answered a calling to the police force not able to endure the killings of MCA leaders around the country.
In the course of fighting the communist terrorist, he was shot in an operation and it was his Malay sergeant that he survived. This was because they never think in term of race, but think as one team. Another memory that is very vivid was the operation in 1952 when they were ambushed and a fellow Malay comrade died in his arm due to late arrival of rescue helicopter. To him, this was Malay that died fighting for the future of all Malaysians. Read the rest of this entry »
Dr Xander started off by giving a brief history of NGV in Malaysia, which is coming to 8 years now. As most of the installation is being done on old vehicles, it was never problem free for cars in Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore.
A car converted to NGV will have a minimum savings of 60% in fuel cost. The speaker pointed out that the correct term to use for the fuel is CNG (Compresses Natural Gas) whish is stored at a pressure of 2400 – 3600 PSI or 200 – 300 BAR. Prior to this, natural gas were normally burnt away in the oil rig but it was soon found out that burning it would cause green house gas, and now it was harvested for NGV use.
