So the Yotaphone is officially coming to Malaysia, what is your opinion about it?
Since, the Yotaphone 2 has announced a few months ago, will it be launched in Malaysia as well?

I have came across some surveys sites claiming that surveyers can earn money just by joining them and completing their surveys. Sites like mysurvey.com , are they legit or just a fraud?

Hi there, I'm Xynan, from Malaysia. Will be sitting for my SPM later this year but 1 problem seems to bogging me about my my after-SPM life. I want to study aout GameDev(gaming is part of me), but I can't make up my mind on where should I head to.
KDU, under the banner of PEMANDU(Performance Management Delivery Unit), seems to offer alot.

Then it is The Point College, driven by industry leader and have so many connections looks promising.

Or should I just head overseas to study game dev. I intend to go to S.Korea because the game produced from there rocks, Aion,Archeage, Black Dessert, ect.

What I have in my mind now:
1. Study in Malaysia, learning Korean then find a job in Korea.
2. Study in Korea, then find a job in Korea.
Backup: Cant find a job in Korea, work locally or in other countries.

Are there seniors or fellow Malaysian game designers out there that can provide some help?
Your advice will be appreciated. Thanks
