QUOTE(entryman @ Aug 15 2011, 07:46 PM) Where the hell do you come from dude lol. hehe. I live in Shah Alam currently with unifi 20mbps. I download many files (shows, music, etc) daily which I probably continue to do in uni and make the big downloads when I go back to parent's home Internet in Malaysia.. the most common you get in households are usually 1Mbps...and 512 kbps of course. Only this year I see more marketing on faster packages for households. I believe maxis works best there, right guys? edit: oh then get yes4g. But take note it's really not for much p2p lol, will cost you a fortune. But yeah I'm aware of the common slow internet in Malaysia especially in Semenyih which is middle of no where. QUOTE(alexander.ch_1992 @ Aug 15 2011, 07:44 PM) thanks guys. I will do some research on Yes4g and others before getting it. Digi also has a sweet deal compared to others with a decent coverage area in Semenyih.PS: I hope there are some social events that UNMC students have with drinks involved. (good stress reliever) I remember when I asked one of UNMC officers about social events and she said "we have bowling." loool This post has been edited by arsenal717: Aug 15 2011, 08:13 PM |

You gotta try the tomyam noodles, turn left immediately after you pass by Restoran 52, it's a house on the left.And btw I tried Broga Pan Mee and Restoran 52 (why isnt this place suggested as one of the good place to eat eh? I like to add "qing tang" (plain soup) into the tomyam so it's not that sour/spicy, nice blend This post has been edited by entryman: Aug 15 2011, 09:15 PM |

But just because of this, it doesn't mean I'm not a responsible caring person who is civilized and aware of moral values. Drinking, enjoying life, but still being a god fearing and responsible caring person. This I respect! My parents have given me the free pass to experiment and see if I want to be associated with religion. This is how the new generation of people are turning up to be in middle east nowadays despite of the Islamic laws especially with the likes of Iranians, Turkish, Lebanese, etc. Not everyone but majority of this young generation I'd say. Are you Muslim or what? This post has been edited by arsenal717: Aug 15 2011, 09:29 PM |

Are you Muslim or what? So do you eat pork? Or do you have something at the back of your mind reminding you that it's probably not such a good thing to do, though you know that it's allright. I had a non-practicing Muslim friend who was just like that haha. |

Or do you have something at the back of your mind reminding you that it's probably not such a good thing to do, though you know that it's allright. I had a non-practicing Muslim friend who was just like that haha. To be honest, I have had many non-muslim friends in Malaysia. Because of this, there have been times where I have had pork like in Korean bbq restaurants and such but it didn't bother me much because pork is forbidden to be eaten by Muslims because it is unclean but that was a true fact actually BUT from many centuries ago. In today's world however with the right technology and techniques to keep the meat clean, the pork is fine to be consumed by anyone. But when I'm with Muslim friends or with my family, I try to respect their religion by refraining to eat or talk about pork. |
