I recently travelled to Hong Kong and stayed in this hotel call, The Royal Pacific Hotel on Canton Road, Tsim Sha Thui. I have in fact stayed there before a couple of times during my seminars in Hong Kong but never did have any such experience.
Bed mites can be very itching right to the head from the toes. Fortunately, I was only been beaten on the waist down and less than 30 different points. Unfortunately, I only realized this when I was on the way home. In the flight home I was really itching and when I look at my feet I realized bite marks.
Where could I have been beaten? It must have been in the hotel room 1504 for the past five days. My wife who was travelling with me this time had the same problem. She also had bite marks on her foot.

Malaysian Astronaut
Russian engineers put the final touches on Sunday to a Soyuz spacecraft in which Malaysia's soon-to-be first astronaut Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor will fly to the International Space Station.
"I'm absolutely confident about this launch. We've got a good team here, no novices," said Nikolai Zaglada, head of the assembly team putting together the Soyuz's sections at Baikonur cosmodrome.
Muszaphar, a doctor and part-time model, is to blast off on Wednesday with Russian cosmonaut Yury Malenchenko and American Peggy Whitson.
He will spend about nine days on the ISS before returning to Earth with its current crew.
The Soyuz, a trusted workhorse that has had about 1,800 launches in various adaptations, is manufactured in Russia and transported in sections by rail to Baikonur, a vast site on the arid plains of Kazakhstan.
Engineers on Sunday joined together the sections of the spacecraft, which is adorned with a Malaysian flag and coat of arms, and applied a final lick of paint before it is taken by rail to the launch pad.
Muszaphar has attracted interest with a promise that if possible he will observe in space the fasting regime of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
Malaysian religious authorities have prepared guidelines on how to adapt the rules to life on the ISS, which circles the Earth 16 times a day, theoretically requiring a Muslim to pray 80 times a day.
Although the whole spacecraft is 50 metres (160 feet) tall on the launch pad, its three passengers will find it cramped inside their capsule, which sheds various sections as it ascends and where they will spend over 24 hours before reaching the ISS.
They will have lounge seats that have been individually fitted to their bodies and will wear space suits designed to remove waste products in the early part of the voyage, when they must stay strapped in place.
Russia is currently marking 50 years of space exploration, having celebrated on October 4 the 50th anniversary of the launch of the first ever satellite, Sputnik.
Malaysia has paid for Muszaphar's voyage as part of a billion-dollar purchase of Russian fighter jets.

Are the Malaysian tax payers sending a tourist to space?
Funny isn't it? We were all made to believe that we are actually sending some qualified trained astronaut to space and are so proud of him. The selection process itself was highly publicised but space agency, NASA, thinks he is a tourist.
A real expensive tourist, by the theme of Malaysia Boleh. I hope as a true representative of the Malaysian people he makes good the investment from the tax payers. And from past experiences of great achievements, he will probably have a, Datukship, waiting for him on his return.
Anyway, congratulations. It take guts, tourist or not, to do what he is doing.

Buka Puasa with friends
The final class for the Internet Mentors Coaching Program ended with a buka puasa for all those that had graduated from the program. We invited everyone who have graduated from IMC to gather for one evening of sharing.
We also had the chance to share some of our experiences and open to questions from everyone. The question and answer session went on overtime because we all got carried away and everyone wanted to contribute their experiences.

PayPal cash withdrawal in Malaysia
This is the question many internet marketers who uses with payment gateway ask. In fact there are several methods in which you can withdraw money from paypal. One simple way is if you already have a bank account in Singapore. Just transfer or withdraw your funds to your Singapore bank account from paypal.
If not than, just open a bank account in US through the internet and apply for a debit card which you can use to withdraw money from any ATM machine in Malaysia. There is another method in which you can sell your paypal money for cash through some auction websites.

Albert Seah in MBA seminar
One of the seminars that I speak in is the MBA seminar for University of East London. I have been doing this for the past 2 years or so. It is my contribution to society, my speaking sessions here are free and my way of giving back. Besides that, I enjoy meeting new people. I have met all kinds of people in seminars that I have spoken in and the MBA attracts a different crowd all together.
Most of them who attend the MBA seminar are seekers for post graduate degree, less aggressive and employed. Whether it is the CEO or a junior executive, they come with the common aim of advancing their working career through improvement in their academic qualifications.
In the MBA seminar, I will also meet some odd ones that don't match. Very seldom, but the highly motivated ones if they turn up for the MBA seminar will make decisions there and then. The sign up rates for the MBA seminar that I conduct is rather good in comparison to the others. There are also many shoppers, these rarely make any decision.
