Had a great night with a bunch of Malaysian tonight. We went to Great Wall to have Chinese buffet dinner. Was there for about 3 hours, we ate, we chat and we joke. I guess we were the loudest group there. It was great. And the weather is superb. Windy and cool.. better than Malaysia. Slowly it is changing like Genting Highlands and this will last until February.
Can't wait till next week as we plan to hang out at the beach at night......... waiting....
生带不来死带不去
Death of Gaddafi doesn't free Libya... they still have to face a lot of obstacle to united as one democrat country.. what next? Syria and Yemen...
What is happening to this world? Greece, UK have riot and Bahrain. I thought those we are brought up to live in peace. In my own opinion it is call because of greed and money and not the less corruption. Everyone want a piece of the sweet and yummy cake.
I understand we live in materialize world but in what extend that we have to put a bullet into someone to get the wealth that we want? I know is hard to change as the greed is always there and people start to forget the religious teaching which is to live humble and modest. And people have to work their way to earn a living and not by expecting someone to feed them.
The Chinese always says, 生带不来死带不去. Live humble and modest and if you have extra cash then use it as charity.

Makan Makan in Qatar - Chicken Mandi / Mandi Chicken
I first get to try this food when my colleague bought it to the office and been trying quite hard to find the place. It is actually easy to find but just that the signboard is old that I missed the restaurant. So the restaurant is located near by Bank Street. If you coming from Corniche towards Bank Street, at the second traffic light turn left and go straight the restaurant is opposite Kahramaa power station.
Mandi chicken or Chicken mandi is an Arabic food as it was sold in Arabic restaurant back in Malaysia. I had tried before in Malaysia and it was so so. This mandi chicken at Doha is totally out of the world. It is really good, the rice is well cooked and have nice juicy flavor and the chicken is just perfect. Here the picture.. :P

Reincarnation...
It is weekend or Thursday to be exact.... and it is also means a week I have return back to Doha. For a month back in Malaysia it is sure fun and I get to hanging out with my close friend and family and of course enjoy good food.
One week have passed and not a single day I do not think of home. Ironically, I should able to get over such feeling in me but somehow I felt it is much worst that my first arrival. The first 2 days when I am here, I felt so miserable and kept wondering why I am here. It feel like I am reincarnated again, the feeling is like the first day I am was here.
Things are slowly back to normal now, work as usual, life is as usual. Now all waiting for the coming holiday and bonus pay out next year (if there is) and there are rumors about increment in salary but chances are low because the Government have just increase all local residence salary that work in public sector at 60%. Crazy huh! yup... this is how much money Qatar has but increase $ doesn't really quite increase productivity.
Actually, I have a lot I wanted to post here but I fell asleep right after I finish the first paragraph. Maybe is because Adele sing to me to sleep. :P. Steve Jobs pass on, well this won't be another posting about him as there are too much already in FB but I just want to comment that Steve Job should be remember not because of Apple but the way he live his life. I watch the speech that he gave on YouTube many years back before everyone start to post it. I simply fell in love with his commitment about being true to yourself, doing what you love and with passion and cherish and use every single moment of life left in you.
I may not be Steve Jobs or I will not be as there is only one him but there are lessons I can learn from him and I think life is all about striking the right balance. You need to strive hard for a success in career but also a right balance in your life to live the success of your hard work.
I used to have lots of craps I wanted to post here but guess it has gone. Perhaps is all the books that I read and messages that I got from friends and Internet that make me think to use the opportunity that I have now. Well indeed I will but like I said earlier life is all about balance everything out which is pretty difficult thing to do for such a simple word as our life is filled with materialism which one find it hard to let go. Currently I am learning on Buddhism about living in simplicity and how to do right to avoid suffering also studies of one of Confucius's 孔子 teaching which is called DiZhiGui 弟子规.
It is not easy to study both as these are ancient teaching for 5000 years ago and basically both teaching thought us common sense and how to be true to your life, parents, family and friends but although their main idea is to teach to be a good person but not many people able to do it as most of us unable to let go what we are having now.
As once people said, parents is the best teacher for a child and reason that why our society it become like this now because the parents themselves are not well educated with the basic rules of life and also DiZhiGui was long lost until it was being practice again in our modern life. Even now Australia and US are using DiZhiGui as part of the public education.
I know one will say good stuff about the topic they interest with but that is not the case here as this is scientific proven and people always have misconception about Buddhism and Confucius. They are not a religion as they didn't ask their students (not followers or worshiper) to pray them. Buddhism and Confucius are education which can be practice by anyone. Well I think say too much on this topic as I am no master to discuss this in details as I just started to read about both of these books.
Anyway back to my life in Qatar, well I will continue my usual life here and continue to look if there are good opportunity back in Malaysia. After all it is still my home country and my family is there and although the environment is not favor us especially in the political arena but I think we are able to manage it right with the right mentality and a well balance life.
Till then .. take good care
