Thanks

Thanks guys for all the concern...

I know I have been very emotional, very sad and frustrated. Thanks to all the concern, it make me stronger.

Those who know me well, know I not good in keeping my anger, my sadness or my frustration.

Among the worst thing I have done when I angry is to bang client door, throw pen, shout at annoying people and....erm...ermm.....Ok....i do that not on purpose K...I didn't bang the door but the wind did...haha....Ok I am lying...I did bang the door...

Ok....justify myself...about all the shit...

Firstly working life is getting me nowhere but a lot of sadness...I been scold kow kow by client which is not under me for no reason...I help to clear shit and yet kena scold for the second time because of someone fault. Workload increase with another shit on hand...no people helping except senior...all this crap just have to stop before I get crazy...

Anyway, thanks to all the consulting...now i change my mind....it was not shit....Let me try to brainwash myself ya...

Scold by client is good because I learn to socialize with them...They are human not alien...Scold by client for other people fault, why should I be angry? not my fault, just enjoy them singing only ma...Although those F~~~word are so difficult to digest but nevermind la, waste my effort to angry them right...

Get shit assignment, nevermind la...can learn how to clean the shit where other people don't have the chance...Helping a sick company is like doctor....cure them....Helping shit assignment is like police and lawyer, investigate and defend them....Good Good...

Why should I make myself angry...It make me feel sorry to my soul...Sorry my soul...Now we should be happy...Who care the shit...If the shit themselves didn't care why should be care...I am not shit cleaner, I am just myself.....

Good Good.....now I sound happier and other will think I am crazy....hahaha..

Anyway friends, thanks for the concern....I will be the same Eddie and might be stronger than ever....I will survive....Trust me....

Friends keep me moving on

It had been a long 7 months for me in audit. Like it or not, I would said I am still surviving in the arena. But how long will I survive? It remain a question...

4 years ago, when I make my decision that I am going to Accounting line, I had set a goal for myself. You might think I am dreaming but I dream way big and I am ambitious. I want to own my own firm and one secret way to make this firm the best firm is .... secret ..... I still strongly think it was possible and my secret way had not yet been leak out. Never would you know...

4 years now....My dream remain a dream though I already get the feel of audit. My dream seem near but the nearer it is to me, the more it fade away. I would said my spirit fade away. My heart were no longer the 101%...it is just now 99%

Today, arriving office, I was totally shock that I need to go to client place alone without early notice. It was quite isolated but i manage to call a taxi shark that charge me crazily to go to that place. My job is simple, making sure I finish 13 company review in 5 hours...It was possible I know...I have done that many times...Once I arrive the meeting room, putting down the bag, the client come in and without giving me a chance to even greet her, I was scold for as long as 5 minutes. It seem unreasonable for her to scold me as I was totally working under senior instruction and yet I dunno what the hack is she scolding. I work as it was statutory for them to be audited and because their account was so bad, it is drag till so long....

The travel was long and rush. Half and hour after my arrival back to office, the client wanted the account ready. It is possible I know....because we are train to be fast....Bullet will never pass through us because we know we are faster than the bullet...

Today dinner was superbly the best one. Lot of talking, lot of misunderstanding and lot of laughter. Seem like all of us was infected with audit disease. A new disease that can make auditor laugh non stop and yet be sad anytime...We were all workaholic, working until we forgot the shape of TV because we never even bother to see the TV...but worst, worst enough that auditor think chicken have 4 feet...weird enough that rabbit only have 2 leg, weird enough that mice have 2 leg...

What is leg gotta do with audit....Do we audit legs?? We are having dinner at Chow Kit road, the road full with yellow chicken...I was joking with my friend who wanted to eat KFC so much....I said "Hey, you want eat chicken, so many chicken behind...Duck aslo got"....She reply "Hey, I don't eat chicken with 2 leg"... Sure enough she work till forgot that chicken only have 1 pair of leg...

Life is getting tougher. Office politic, a bit or more will affect the mood of work... Demotivation, tiredness, laziness have all pouring in and it really affect productivity...Sometime, in any point of time, there is a feeling of throwing all responsibility, throw a letter and just walk out...But I do not have such a guts...Yes..I am chicken when come to this issue...

My life goes on despite is was hectic and so does millions of other auditors in the world....My only motivation is friend...Friendship at workplace....True enough there is no 100% friendship in workplace compare to in University...but it was enough to have a bunch of friend, joking, having lunch, having dinner, go to class together, walk to LRT, and wave goodbye when the train arrive at the respective station.

Sound emo? It might be....But it will be more emo if I found the guts of walking away....It will never be so soon or might never happen, but it was unsure when will the guts visit me...

1.32am...Alone, listening to repeated songs, I update this blog. Is because of you all, friends, I am surviving now. Friend and family are my biggest motivation. Thanks...I will continue to survive till the day I lost my spirit...

How Green are you?



An apple might seem nice, shinning and attractive. It was when we bite it we will know whether it was sweet, sour or bitter...

Is same as human or a company. The outer side might look beautiful, adorable, stable, attractive enough for you to fall in love or invest in. It was when you know the internal side, would you then know the secret of it.

A company might look fresh, healthy and green....profit is reported high every year, return on investment seem attractive and management board seem honest enough to the shareholders... However, we do sometime suspect that there is worm inside. Those people who greed and take care of self interest more than the other stakeholders. This is the worm that one day may causes the fresh apple to be rotten...

Since Enron case, people are more aware that green apple might not be as green as it was. It was then audit become extremely important and auditors as well as other regulatory body is seem to be the watchdog of the company...

Watchdog, bloodhound, scapegoat, wistle blower.....all this jargon was hardly been use in business world before Enron scandal happen...So who are we?

Nowadays, all student need to take ethics paper whether it was degree or professional paper. This show, how badly was the ethical issue in business world nowadays...

So did you still think it was possible to have fresh green apple among businesses in the world...It may if there is no worms in it...What you have to say?

Audit..Do it add value?

Is now 12am and I am here in front of my desktop blogging. I just arrive home from work...

It have been a tough day and it really frustrated me a lot. I log into thestar to see any business news which is hot...and yeah, the audit issue pop up again. The oilcorp saga continue although today EGM had seen Horward been appointed the new auditor replacing Baker Tilly Monteiro Heng.

Very seldom had we seen an auditor giving out qualified report or disclaimer report stating that they are unable to form true and fair view about the financial position of a company. It was even rare case for a public listed company as huge as Oilcorp.

Since working as auditor, I have been discussing with some of my friends and also colleague regarding how much contribution are we as the auditor toward the financial report? Are audit been perform because the company need to perform or the company want to perform? Why do company wanted to fork out portion of the money for audit services? and Did audit really add value or it simply incur another extra expenses toward the company?

Firstly we were all known that auditor is to be there to perform verification, testing and and proving the financial statement of the company are free from material misstatement and error. As part of the responsibility of the auditor is to form an opinion whether the account was prepared in true and fair view... However, human are always creative and innovative, this is why, regulation and guideline is given to prevent any misstatement or window dressing been done in the account.

Been auditor in another part is full of responsibilities. ALthough the responsibility of auditor is to report our opinion to the member of the company, but it was largely affecting the whole company. If auditor were to form an qualified opinion or disclaimer, the company is in a grey of bad reputation or decrease in share price. Thus, auditor must be capable enough to perform the job accurately, carefully and most importantly independently.

Independent on the other hand is so difficult to be measured. How did you measured independent? Even the basis of audit, which is true and fair is not clearly define...Auditor itself are nowadays getting younger and younger...It seem like audit work suit for youngster rather than experience staff. So could we really expect the youngster to know more than the company accoutant?

Moreover the audit fees are paid by client and it was norm that auditor will try to please the client. Audit is consider service line and is norm also that we always said client always right...But in case of audit, the world seem to be rounded up. Although the client paid the auditor, the nature of this transaction is client must take in the opinion of auditor. So if the auditor claiming something which was not favourable to the company, the client will not be happy and it was time the client will show power by kicking away the auditor.

The reality is the truth now...and thus this will never change. I would said, to be a good auditor, we just act professionally, do what we suppose to do and just be brave...For client or company, remember that ethics, transparent and honesty is the best policies...Company survival are not on the hand of auditor, management or shareholder but more to the mindset of all parties...If management have intention to confuse, convince, con or control the auditor, I believe they may and they also have the power to destroy the company.

No matter how good the management are in hidding the secret, it will one day end up like Enron. Audit may not add value, but it is at least there to prevent the management from expressing their creative talent in cheating the shareholders...

CSR? Responsibility or Hidden Truth?

So many company are now venture into Corporate Social Responsibility and sustainability businesses or some call it triple bottom line... We are truly happy to see more and more company are willing to set a side portion of the company profit for the development and sustainability or their own businesses and bringing goodness to the society as the whole...

The question that normally people are asking is how since is the corporate social responsibility? For company which potrait bad image from their business, how far can CSR potrait them as good company? WHy would a company do something that might bring harm to their own company?

Weird is the truth...truth is the weirdest part....Why would British America Tabacco encouraging youngster not to smoke? Why would Genting try to reduce gambling addiction among the customer? JTI also had try to urge people to know the different between smoking legally and health...

Bottom line for this, I would believe they want to be view as good company, try to inform the public that even they are in business that might cause danger or addiction, the company are itself clean and legal...

BAT open its business as there is demand for cigarette and their aim is to make money out of it...They didn't force people to smoke, but people itself who wanted to smoke. Genting open its door with casino. They didn't force people to go in to gamble but yet people are going in...

Business is tough...Main reason for company to exist is to have profit...mean survival beside capital is the revenue and income is enough to cover all expenses....So if the company is to fork out big portion of money for Corporate Social responsibility, that will affect the profitability of the company and reduce the return on investment....Thus, shareholder unhappy....

However world change and now people are looking on stakeholder more than shareholder...Everyone is sstakeholder....creditor, debtor, bankers, government, consumer, public, and sometime arguable the animal itself...Earliest 90's, the green peace and other NGO had actively come out and shouting for greener business and more environment friendly businesses...Talking about animal as stakeholder, there is once KFC in US been boycott for animal torturing. It was said, that KFC is accountable for chicken that they are the stakeholder of the company...Sadly to said, now we have to wider our perception of stakeholder as to anyone or anythings that is affected by the company decision...

On the same time, an ethical and "good" company is proven to project "healthier" income to the company. So what you think? Did CSR and triple bottom line improve business in term of reputation and profitability? A good question....I do believe there is a point why ACCA are so keen in promoting the CSR and even the new requirement by the regulatory board in making a mandatory for all public listed to list down the CSR activities that hey have done...

CSR...Corporate Social Responsibility....The new age of business...

ACCA started

ACCA class started two weeks ago and it means there is no longer weekend for me to enjoy. I spent 12 hours sitting in the same lecture hall in Sunway listening to two lecturer. Life is so bored!!!

Basically my life is so bored that I don't have anything to update in my blog...Almost everyday, I sit at one isolated corner of the office with bunch of seniors and stare at the laptop for hours waiting for lunch time to come. After drafting and drafting, correcting and correcting, casting and continue casting and cross referencing for 4 hours, it was time for lunch. 1 hour break seem the best time in work as I can at elast open my mouth to talk...You know, I am those who cannot close my mouth for more than 1 minutes...wahahaa

After lunch, it was time to do the samething again....photocopying, cross referencing, casting, checking, correcting, typing, aligning and all the 'ing' thing... The life in finalizing audit is so so so bored....Suddenly feel like 8 hours is so long and it was dragging.

Anyway, I already work for 6 months time did flyzz. Almost 4 months after our convo and here I am still stuck in the office working. Haha...

Now with ACCA, I have more reason not to sleep early...Trying very hard to enjoy every second of my life although I arrive home from work just to be on bed to sleep... I try to enjoy and I do hope I enjoy...

My feeling now? total empty...Still asking why I am here...My answer is like what the previous posting said, I still have faith on accounting that it will brighten my future...Someday, oneday, mightbe today...

Why Accounting? Why Audit?

When I move from science stream to take accounting courses, everyone was shock. My mom was shock, my friends were shock,and even myself was shock by my decision. For me 2 main reason that change my mind; I hate chemistry, the main subject in science and secondly accounting future is brighter.

When I become the accounting society chairman, everyone come to me and ask why accounting? Why not economics, why not banking, why not business administration?

When I join audit, people ask me why audit? why not commercial? why not venture own business? Why would I work in "underpaid" sector?

All this questions, I personally have think it over and over again. In the middle of hard time during studies, where time I almost give up all my hope, I pause for awhile and rethink. Why would I divert my path from science to accounting? In the middle of working, where stress and disappointment, I pause and ask myself, why should i troubling myself working hard, taking full time class and making my schedule full?

My answer was easy, Accounting path is path for everyone. If you undecided where to go, Accounting can guarantee prospect in almost all line and all industry. Accounting is a profession that include all businesses. All business need to maintain account. All business to ensure cash flow and financially sound.

My answer of why auditing is audit is a never ending learning work. Everyday is new, everyday is a new day, a new learning, a new life. No doubt life in audit is suffering, suck and sometime you just want to give up your career and go for long holiday. But was make us stay is the valuable experience. The opportunity to see various industry operating, the reason why company making losses, the operation method that guarantee success of a company, the socialize opportunity with directors and manager.

Seeing friends in different industry, earning much more than me make me happy for them as well as some envy feeling. Nowadays when we saw each other, our custom will be shaking hand and changing business card. Life had enter into another stage. Another new life...

Everyone was born to be the same. Each one future was on our hand. Is on us to choose the path and make the path as the best path as what you wanted. For me, accounting is my line, audit is my field. How long will I stay? As long as i perceives I worth working as "underpaid slave" for my "overpaid millionaire"...

Happy Birthday Yen Thoong...

It was Yen Thoong Birthday, another buddy of mine....

Since we all are busy man, working day and night so we didn't plan for any surprise or grand celebration. Just relax at a cafe and ask the singer to sing birthday song for him...Simple yet meaningful...

It have been tradition for us to celebrate birthday with a tortoise or turtle on it. Why? Because tortoise symbolize longevity and we call it "chin nie kuai" or thousand years old tortoise...Of course we are not so "oldies" la....Tortoise symbolize our friendship journey in TARC and UTAR. It was due to our English assignment group which was named as "Shaolin Tortoise". See my birthday also got tortoise on my cake...hehe

Our trademark at that moment was "No Meat, No Sex, No Entertainment...Amithabha"
We have done a lot of crazy stuff in English class and always create laughter and noise. We never get high mark for our assignment but we always get high mark for able to get audience attention and creating laughter.

One of our biggest project is of course the "Tak Nak" Campaign and "Product creation". Our special 3+1 underwear "Shaolin Tortoise" Brand manage to capture the biggest market share. I guess all guys in our class would like to own one of the the underwear if it was available in the market.

Anyway...stop crapping about Shaolin Tortoise...Yesterday beside chit chatting and update about our life progress, we have stupid idea of playing domino falls and Uno Stakco...Of course again using the shaolin tortoise rules lo...

Saying about shaolin tortoise rules, it remind me about "Shaolin Tortoise 18 level swimming challenge". Anyone who knows us will also know that we always mis used our condomedium swimming pool for some idiot game like hunting for coconut, sotong swimming, jumping dolphin and so on. But what the worst thing about Shaolin Tortoise 18 level swimming challenge is each individual have to undergo water torturing from our 2 water masters and involve crazy stunt, torture and even bravery and silly act. I was the first victim to take this challenge and I pass 8 level. Remaining level seem "IMPOSSIBLE" to complete....haha

Though it was 6 months since we left our university or even worst 3.5 years since TARC, our friendship still going strong and I do hope our friendship will be like the "chin nien kuai". Oh by the way, Shaolin Tortoise comprise of 5 members, lead by Senior Master Chou Chee Wai and Master Cho Liang Bing and with the help of Assistant Senior Kan Zhe Quan, Chua Yen Thoong and of course me la....haha...Nowadays our Master Chou is too busy so he dun have time to come out....Sooner I will post out his photo...haha

By the way, before we leave we notice that someone is looking for sex partner...So since he so desperate then I help him publish lo...wakaka....look like Niholas is the one who is promoting lol...haha ... Shoulin Tortoise....No SEX, NO Meat, No Entertainment, Amithabha"

Happy Birthday dude....Hope you get whatever you dream off....Stay young and handsome ya...hehe

2 fun day at work

As auditor, it was very difficult to have a day full of fun and enjoyment. Everyday is stress and full of burden.

Everytime when the date in the calender coming to 30th or 31st, we would either be scare or happy. Why? The salary is out....yeah....

Ok..not just because the salary but month end is also time for stock take. Yup...2 reason to celebrate for this month end, one is we get to travel, second we get to see different things.

Ok....there is also 2 reason to be sad...one you get to stock take lousy thing like "shit", i mean fertilizer....and second reason is the place is far away and we are on our own to think of the transportation...Sometime the warehouse will be hot and stuffy.

So I consider very fortunate. Thanks to my prayer...I pray everyday to be bless with great stock take...haha...

Monday I wake up early and drive to PJ to count wood...yeah...wood and door panel...It was also the most clean factory I ever see. The factory manager will ask the worker to collect even a small paper on the floor. Not forgeting dry leaf as well...The boss also very nice and treat us very good...

Tuesday, i go count luxury iten in pavilion. I won't said the brand due to confidentiality but I can tell you a bag can cost RM 32,000.00 That was really eye opening for me... The staff are also very friendly...

Life good and today also quite a nice day. LRT move like snail today so lot of people late to work. Luckily i wake up early and arrive lrt station early...Normal journey will take 20 minutes but today I take 45 minutes to arrive office...Is the government try to encourage us to drive again...Is time to improve our public transport....

Anyway, the more I write the more I link to our country situation. Sadly to say, our country look like in the middle of chaos...Hope everything will be settle down faster. As long as we are willing to give way, more considerable and able to cooperate, i believe our country will be more harmony and unity. Throw away our selfish attitute...

Genting Trip

It have been long time since my last visit to Genting Highland. I still remember how I always succeed to enter the casino without being catch although I was still underage at that moment...Of course thanks to my "apek" look lo...

Anyway, on Saturday, my friend invite me to Genting to relax and gathering after 6 months we had not meet...It was mean to be a trip to relax and gather so we have no plan for theme park nor any other entertainment...Bored ya...of course not because we are at the "city of Entertainment". The big reason why we have always been looking forward to highland trip is due to its clean, cold, and refreshing air.

Our stay at Genting was simple, a 3 rooms apartment at Ria Apartment and guess what, the total of people sleeping inside the apartment is 23...and the best part of all, we have steamboat party for 23 person on Saturday night inside the apartment...haha.. Besides that, I saw my "son" Ms Gwee" and his girl friend. Oh my god, his girl friend is so tall and even taller than me...

So beside steamboat and lot of chit chatting, our main entertainment is the casino of course...Since I can walk in and out of the casino like no body business starting April, I took my first opportunity by putting bet on some games...It was miserable to lost money, making me so angry and sad...

At night after steamboat, we decided to revenge by betting at the casino again. This time, I found some games that I know and ya I won some...It was till the dealer had done some mistake causing some disturbance on our table. The casino management had to see CCTV to determine what happen and as expected some player try to get "cheap" way to cheat the casino...but no body can deny CCTV evidence. Because the whole process of viewing CCTV would take long time and I am no allow to leave the casino since I also got some dispute due to the dealer fault, I continue to play and luck was certainly at my side. I have get back my capital and I decided to leave the table. It was then another dispute come in as the 2 Indian is fighting over their own bet. Again the management was called to determine whose bet was it. Actually both player are friend and I believe they are trying to cheat the dealer since it was late night. This cause me to be at the table for another half hour due to the idiot dispute. However, the "choi san" is standing beside me so I keep on win and win...wahaha...At the end I get some "free earning" by just sitting and guessing...Though it was not much but I am happy...

Seem like Genting is starting its CSR activity by having a Responsibility Gambling program to help people who is addicted to gamble to avoid from this addiction. Of course, Genting would still want to earn money in gaming industry and yet lot of people is blaming Genting as "killer" of family and maybe the country. However be alert that they open the business but they have no intention or in any way force us to gamble. Is because our addiction we keep on gamble and gamble...Of course for me, I am playing for fun. I thought I just wanna take small capital and have some fun...Never expected got luck behind me....




Telling you the truth, my hand is shaking everytime I put on the bet thought at some point I am 100% I gonna win. Is because all single cent I gamble is from hardwork and sweat of our work. I don't understand got people gamble few thousand in 1 betting and when they lose, they feel like nothing happen. Maybe they are too rich...But for me, an risk adverse person, I am certainly scare of gamble. If I stay in casino any longer, I believe I already got serious heart attack..hehe

To all player or gamble, be alert and don't be addicted. Be responsible on every betting...Don't regret when it was too late. Gamble are suppose to be fun and not suffering. Bet small and enjoy...Always remember that there is still wonderful world ahead and don't spoil your life with gambling.

Why Crowd?


My firm had been promoting aggressively to inform the whole world that our firm are as good as the others. The significant marketing theme they use is "why crowd"....yeah, why crowd in one place when there is so many other place that we can work for?...

Recently my firm had been awarded the Platinum Status for employer by ACCA. Our big boss had also announce in the newspaper that we are the Number 4 company in audit as well as consulting in Malaysia.

I am quite surprise that some people also decided to join our firm by just reading my post in my blog. Never do i know that a stranger will read my blog, add me in msn and become my friend and few days to come he will be my colleague..."Welcome aboard"

I have been hearing what my boss had been saying for almost a year and he share the same mission and vision for years. Whether his vision will make the firm a level ahead or not, remain unknown...We do cross finger hoping the best.

If you are wondering what firm I am talking about, I guess you are first time reader of my blog...haha..My firm is BDO Binder and if you scroll down more you will see it appear lot of time...haha...

Anyway, I do not say that other firm are not good...They are equally good and some are even better. As for me, I settle down for the time being and be the same as the gold fish above, taking risk in a bigger aquarium...

My saving account is drying out due to my studies and sooner it will be dry out with the current increase in all item in the market...It was quite and enjoyable day as I was accompany by 7 others colleague from BDO...They also want to enroll for ACCA courses....

Night time, I went for Gia Min birthday with all knowledge worker participants...Of course this time around the people who turn out had been less due to Father's Day and everyone is busy with their own work...We went to The Garden to have japanese food. The restaurant is Fuzu, my favourite japanese food restaurant...It serve generenous portion of food...Still Hurley complaint it was too little for him...




Sunday evening, I have a walk in the Permaisuri Lake Garden. The second biggest park in KL after Titiwangsa lakeside...It was just a stone throw from my condo I am staying.
Anyway, the park was really beautiful. There is thousand of people jogging and hunred of family having picnic there...It was such a great place for relaxation...Swan and duck swimming happily inside the lake...





That my week and ya..I missed father's day because I didn't know it was today....Ok...i m such a bad son anyway...haha...OK...Happy Father's Day to my dad and also all dad in the whole world...

Anything, Whatever is here...

If you ever remember my post during my Singapore tour, I did mention about a drink call Anything and Whatever..

The drink is a revolution of new age beverage. The flavor of the beverage is very normal but what make it interesting is you won't know the flavor until you open the can and drink it.

If you are undecided of what to drink, you will normally said "whatever la" or "anything". These 2 special word had been the idea of the special drink.

And guess what! These drink is now arrive in Malaysia...Fantastic...
So if u are undecided of what to drink...try anything and whatever



**Anything is for carbonated drink
**Whatever is for juices and seasonal drink

If u didn't click on the advertisement above, please click....it is extremely funny...haha

The Effect

It seems to be a normal day today as I walk out to the LRt station. As expected the road is not as busy as before. Prediction that LRT would be full today was correct and I am glad that I went to the LRT station 15 minutes earlier than the normal day.
The effect of petrol hike had really given a huge impact for normal people. Almost every single man in the street feels the effect. The LRT service had been bad these few days especially the new petrol hike and subsidy been withdraw. This few days itself, the LRT had not come according to schedule especially the morning time. Air-condition is not been repair and people are squeezing like a sardine almost every morning and evening.

Today morning was really a chaos. Though I arrive 15 minutes earlier than normal time, I was shock with how pack was the station. The platform itself is not enough to fill in the sea of human. Is like a tsunami of human in LRT station. Pregnant woman, senior citizen and some school children and millions of working adult are all busy waiting for the LRT. It was so pack that I wanted to take out my phone to take photo is not convenience. I was stuck immediately after I pass the ticket counter.
First train come and I already know I will never go into the train. After 12 minutes the second train comes and all people are squeezing themselves into the train. It is hardly to see anyone can even go into the train already. Third train come and I thought it was my turn go get in since I was in front of the door. Once the door open, I was shock….It is so cramp that I don’t think anyone from my station is able to go in. One pregnant lady looks so sad so some of the people try to open so space so she can squeeze in.

Forth train arrives with even worst scenario. I don’t think I can even put in one of my leg in. It was so full that people inside is sweating so badly. Fifth train arrives after 1 hour of waiting and it was already 8.26am. It was impossible for me to arrive on time.

Arrive at office is another shocking. The sultan ismail road which use to be jammed up seem quite smooth. The traffic police can easily depend on the traffic light. The price hike in petrol had impact on everyone. Productivity in workplace drop as people arrives late to workplace. People start their early day by sweating and get frustrated with public transport and by the time they are in office, they are so tense up that it already affected the productivity in the office. Crime rate will sooner increase and people will start to suffer as people are getting poorer and purchasing power reduces.

Enjoying the suffering

It had been 5 months since I start working in BDO and all those suffering and handwork is always paid off when you see audit report one by one being signed by the partner and handed to the client.

Although life as auditor might not be as good as other commercial job, but what I had learn is much valuable and can’t been found in other job.

Days ago, we just bid farewell to group of UPM trainees. To Mun Kit, my colleague, who use to be my temporarily roommate during audit in Klang, I hope all the best in your studies and hope we can work together after you graduate.

Life is fun though it was suffering in audit job. Do believe me… Don’t believe me? What job will send you to count shit? Haha…sorry, I mean fertilizer. Not bad le….I have to walk so careful as if I accidentally drop, my left is urea and my right is full of compost…haha…They give u MAS flight for counting shit wo...Good ma...

How about working in hospital and been given a doctor room. For one whole week, the canteen aunty call me Dr Lim…haha…funny right…

What job can ask you go count the number of car park in a shopping complex? Audit does…haha..

Audit is full of training and even in training, we are so happy together...Here what we look like during training...

Life in audit is suffering…I do admit, it was suck at some point of time, but life is so meaningful with great job scope, great senior, great client, great management and great colleague…


Ya…and this is the picture that causes me to write so many rubbishes in this post. Work during Labour Day but end up eating seafood at Teluk Gong. Sadly 2 of our senior are not there because they are busy with their work…Had been trying to snap the senior photo but fail…haha…



In the mist of working, some weekend i rest my mind, walking in the park, gather with friends from varies audit firm and chat about our life....and sometime if really so stress up, I laze myself, off my phone and see the pool for hours...

Life tough....life suck....but life go on....I does enjoy all the suffering...
