red1, i am and still working for mdec, what ever it is when one say something bad about mdec i just got to defensive mode when i need to protect the company i am working with. i dont care if any of u attack me personally or not it just me. but when it go as far as this i feel it is my responsibility to protect it. as i have done to you time and time again. red1 i always treat you as my friend and you are still my friend and you know i'll help you till the limit of my authority. i hope every one of you here realize that all of us are just plain human being where we make mistake every second of the day and hoping we learn from there.
if you coming to mdec to kick my arse please do so tuan and i will surely kick your arse back again. :) On 5/19/10, red1 <[email protected]> wrote: > i tend to agree loudly to this Brian, but my pitch is that if Malaysia > wants to be no.1 Govt has to interfere correctly. > We are not a top world economy.
