Taste of Malaysian fruits

One thing I like about this employee engagement thing is that we get everything for free. After the free tickets and pop corn Madagascar 3 night out, yesterday we got to eat Malaysian local fruits for free! I did not plan to join as I had a meeting scheduled to be finished at 5.30pm and I don't like the idea of going home late as I would be stuck in the traffic congestion. But since the meeting finished so much earlier than expected, and I kind of fall for the Chancellery sisters' persuasion,  so I went to the pesta buah tempatan.

And so it begins...

It's just a few days away from Ramadhan and yes, I know everyone is already getting busy with Raya preparation. Kan? Kan? :P

I went to Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman on the last weekend of June and man, the traffic was VERY VERY bad! I guess most of them are out doing the last-minute-before-puasa-plus-gaji-baru-keluar shopping. Some shops along Jalan TAR have even started playing raya song when I went there again last week. Haishh.

So anyway, I am one of them who got everything ready even before Ramadhan came. What am I getting ready for?

IHH Healthcare Berhad Initial Public Offering (IPO)

Before the top management of IMU make official announcement on IHH Healthcare Berhad (the holding company of IMU health, Parkway Pantai Limited and Acibadem Holdings) going public listing in the Bursa Malaysia, I was actually informed about this by my Uncle. I guess businessman reads more on the business section than a non-businesswoman, me. Hehe. I have never actually know what is all this share and stock and so on and so forth is all about. Not until the President of IMU finally announced of the listing last few weeks that I google informations on shares and IPO.

To cut the story short - with Khazanah as IHH's major shareholder - today, 4 July 2012 marks the date of the IHH prospectus launching and is due to list on July 25.IHH's IPO for the Malaysian public, directors and employees has been fixed at a retail price of RM2.85 per share.

Madagascar 3 movie night out!

Our management is being so kind to treat the staff to watch the Madagascar 3 as one of the employee engagement activities (and to make us love working there more and more, I guess. ;p) So anyway, since it's a free movie pass and free popcorn, of cos I wouldn't say no. More over, it involved my favourite Alex, Marty, Melman and Gloria!

Family tree

Yesterday, one of my cousin asked for my great-grandmother's name. I thought her name was Maria. I recheck just now on Geni that her name was actually Masnah. Maria was my great-great-grandmother.

Talking about Geni.com, I can't remember exactly how did I find out about the website but I've joined Geni since years ago. Before Geni, I managed to get the late family members' name starting from great-great-grandparent from my grandfather and I drew my own family tree but I lost it anyway -___-" So when I found out about Geni, I was so happy to know that there is an easier way to keep record on the family and to build a family tree. So I went back to grandfather and mum to collect information on my maternal family members. I had a feeling that grandfather might be talking to himself  "Berapa kali la nak bagi budak ni senarai nama-nama semua..dah la kene ingat balik satu-satu..." Ngehngehngeh.
