TENANG BY ELECTION.
As expected Barisan national retained the seat with bigger majority. It was heartening to see voters turn out to vote in heavy downpour. Both candidates were ex-government servant. My sympathy went to the loser who also in this case have to find a new job.

BADMINTON - KOREAN OPEN.
Lee Chong Wee lost to Lin Dan. It is rather unexpected as the world number one was in top form recently after winning The Taiwan and Malaysian open.

MINI LINK HOUSE (TOWN HOUSE)
Keeping money in the bank is no longer a wise thing to do since its purchasing power is diminishing by the day. I wonder what happened to the old advise to save and save for the future. At one time ( I am talking in the 60s) school children were encouraged to save by buying 10 sen stamps and pasting them on a card. Once the card was full it can be deposited in the Post Office saving account. It may took a month for a child to save 3 ringgit. It was a big amount those days.
I was looking for properties to invest as an alternative to keeping money in the fixed deposit. I came across this town house in Bandar Tasek Puteri, Rawang. At a glance it looked like link house but on closer examination will reveal that it is actually two units of town house. One on top of the other but with separate entrance. So if you purchase two units, you can actually combined them into a normal link house.
What an innovative way. It is a good alternative to living in an apartment house.
