simple answer: no.

complicated answer: not directly. A browser called Puffin (as well as several browsers other out there) uses remote desktop technology incorporated into browser to decode Flash. Read: decode flash on server and send as video+audio stream to iPad, iPad send back mouse click events to server. it's a legal loophole, since RDP is allowed by Apple). Downside: Slow internet connection (imagine being stuck with EDGE on DiGi, like I am now- due to being on vacation in the east coast) renders it mostly useless. Also my tests show that so far Puffin cannot send back keystroke events.

I know there's no flash support. But I'm figuring is there any apps that allow us to play flash video.
there are special apps such as youtube, pptv that allow us to play flash isn't it?

Nope, that app can only watch youtube videos encoded in H.264. Some old videos on youtube can't be watched at all. That's why most of them time, you can't watch embedded youtube videos because they're flash.

If you really really want to watch Flash, then you can buy the Skyfire browser. I believe it has a built-in function where the Skyfire server will actually help convert the flash video and send it to your ipad as HTML5. But there are people saying the conversion is not guaranteed. You need to ask someone who has bought Skyfire to confirm this.

Remote desktop app. It works pretty ok and even stream movies if you are connected to your Local Network. I haven't tried Flash yet but I dont think every Flash games works well. Network lag is a problem.

I like the facial expression when the CEO is being interrupted with "none of them works well bla bla bla... I'm sorry".

No choice la.. Apple can afford to act stubborn while Android plays catchups. Once they are neck to neck then only we sit down and watch with popcorn in our palm.
