没有大舅的日子:第348天

A Merry Chinese New Year....

Whoa! What a merry Chinese New Year of 2010!
Grandmother's house was PACKED with relatives on the 2nd day. Initially, it was a gathering for grandmother and her siblings. However, ALL the members of the siblings' family turned up at the lunch gathering. Grandmother's house was big enough for 30-50 people...!

I do recognise most of the relatives that came on last Monday...

Happy Chinese New Year...!

It's been a while since my last blog...
So what happened between Bernard and Kee now? Back to normal. I mean no more partnership.

Chinese New Year is just days ahead...
And I'll be going back to my hometown...
As I grew older, the spirit of celebrating Chinese New Year seems to fade... Why? Probably as we grow older, we are no longer the child that we use to be. What we can really do is just remise or remember it as part of our chilhood days.

'Masuk Lokap'...

When I heard of this 'masuk lokap' story, I just couldn't stop laughing...!

As I mention about Bernard and Kee ended their partnership and turned to an ugly battle at my last post, this is the second half of the story. Bernard, as we may know, was given a restraining order by the court, are forbidden to enter the office for 6 months. However, he entered the office 2 weeks ago when Kee was out. Even if Kee is not around, you just don't enter at afternoon! Such a silly move... The assistant called Kee and told him that Bernard came in and took his documents. Furious Kee then called the police and locked him in jail...
He then called a lawyer to bailed him out, maybe...?

Ugly battle...

This is a story of 2 partners of a company. Kee and Bernard. They formed the partnership in around 6 years ago. Things are OK for these 2, until news broke last year that they are going to disband.
Reason, well, there are 2 versions, basically;
  1. Kee: Angry at Bernard when he was absent for 2 months. Other than that, Bernard owns a company out there, without Kee's knowledge.
  2. Bernard: Claimed that Kee does not care about their company and most of the profit of their company comes from him.

What happened now?

The court released a restraining order, forbidding Bernard to enter the office for six months. Why? Kee had this evidence that Bernard use their company to keep the stocks of his own company. In simple English, he violated the laws. Probably will be fined or jailed, either both.

Happy 2010...

New year, new hope, new resolution, and everything new!!! Welcoming to the year of 2010! Can't really believe that 10 years has passed since the year of millennium... From the 911 attack, the 1st black president of the United States and the political tsunami in Malaysia to the economy crisis and the rise and fall of crude oil, so much has happened over the decade. Looking back, personally I think everyone should have some lesson from all the incidents.
What I wish for 2010? I wanted to be Wong Jing. Ha, it's just one of my hopes... I'm entering university this year and I'm looking forward to it...
