Bacardi 151 is not available in Malaysia, or to my knowledge. That thing is a bloody killer though, get knocked out so fast I see no reason to even have a party all night long when you're dead within the first 30 minutes.

Unfortunately Storm just lost the league to Sydney, totally outplayed. At least for AFL it was a all VIC finals, Hawthorn vs Geelong.

Upcoming A-League Melbourne VS Sydney for those interested, in the Telstra Dome.

Sydney... hmm... felt overrated with it. I agree that Melbourne City is smaller, but it is way more organised. Sydney is like a big mess, didn't really fancy it coupled with the outrageous transport cost like literally forcing you to get weekly or monthly tics. Kudos to Metlink 2 hour/daily zone 1,2 system although there are talks regarding it gonna be so breaking down soon. I must give it up to Sydney for having a slight edge in food with Hurricane and Seoul etc. or maybe I'm just biased being sick of what there is in Melbourne.

And scenery... well. Not really a fan although I did like Darling Harbour and Opera house. I felt Crown was livelier than Star but I guess this was a timing thing perhaps considering I've been to Crown Casino countless of time and only twice in Star.

Yeah, it is, but so does the whole country (and most parts of the Western world for that matter).

Not yet. Recession is defined when there is 2 consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth.
The next quarter would be December.

ABS has not updated its site, or AFAIK, for the September quarter but the June quarter was quite shit. So assuming September had a negative growth, and then in December as well will only Australia truly be in recession.

Melbourne VS Sydney? laugh.gif

I am amazed some of you Malaysians here are actually defending the city they live in in another country.

Why not you defend our own country, Malaysia instead? With all the racism going on and the weird politics and the external laughter from other countries.

Some of you here really need to open your eyes bigger ... seriously.

When you're in Malaysia, you quarrel in Malaysia. Now you're in Australia, you quarrel in Australia. How long do you think this will continue?

I don't see anyone forcing down their opinions onto another. Quite clear that people are just justifying their reasons for preference (along with some random people stating Sydney/Melbourne is overrated without justifying, but let's leave those no-value out).

What's your definition of defending? Simply stating their reasons for saying so? I've stated why I prefer Melbourne overall but I leave it as that if anyone disagrees. After all, anyone would be biased in the place they live in.

No.

Either you get a recognised pre-u English Studies (SAM, AUSMAT etc, Australian year 12 stuff) or IELTS.
