Flight no show for first leg = return leg cancel

bonedragon — Mon, 18 Sep 2017 00:59:27 +0800

Is this normal? And do it quietly some more without informing via sms or email. Missed my first flight coz missed an earlier connecting flight so made alternative transport arrangements. Couldn't do web check in for my return flight on the original itinerary so called in and got shocked, it was already canceled! Otherwise would only find out at airport before the flight, can u imagine that! Then wanna make me pay a no show fee plus the fee of a new ticket. Wtf? I just hung up and bought a new cheaper ticket from the carrier of our southern neighbour for half the price.

Local full service airline (you know i know la). I've done this on the local budget airlines with no such repercussions. Wanna support buatan malaysia also so difficult

Knn really pissed me off

Volume control affecting right speaker output

bonedragon — Tue, 25 Oct 2016 18:44:35 +0800

Hi all,

I've got a set of Logitech Z2300s which have been with me for about 7 years now. Still working fine and the sound is still great except for one minor issue which is worsening day by day. The right speaker's output has somehow become linked to the volume knob's position. At low volume levels there won't be any sound from the right speaker most of the time, got to keep toggling the volume around to find that 'sweet spot', where both left and right speakers output as normal. At higher volume levels this problem more or less goes away. So I've resorted to setting the volume knob to a really loud volume and bringing down the system volume instead to compensate.

Is this a common issue as speakers age? Would the service center be able to help on this without chopping me? Seems like some contact points coming loose within the volume control that is causing this but i can't tell for sure so thought i'd ask here to see if anyone faced this before. Thanks.

QUOTE

After her escapades the other day, we thought that Paris Hilton had already had more champagne poured all over her than one person could possibly handle in a lifetime – but apparently not so.

During a night in St.Tropez earlier this week the socialite’s uber rich pal Taek Jho Low – who she’s recently been travelling with – spent a whopping 3.5 million Euros on buying gigantic bottles of Crystal for Paris and her champagne guzzling friends – which they then promptly poured all over themselves. Obviously (why, what else are you supposed to do with it?)

Apparently the Malaysian tycoon decided to splash out on the ridiculous lavish gift for the reality star after the socialite had come face-to-face with her ex Doug Reindhart who was in the same club as them.

According to club revellers Doug tried to compete with Jho Lo by buying four gigantic bottles of Crystal but that was no match for the Malaysian businessman who then went onto buy the club’s entire supply of bubbly.

Let that be a lesson to you – never ever start a champagne war with Paris Hilton because she will win…

you saying a lot of things but yet you only know what is happening in Japan

what did you mention in your writting about the current situation of Korean?

you mainly just said. you dont know.

that is the key, you dont know.

so How can you understand my point of view if you dont know about Korea ?

infact you dont want to know, it is not just you dont know. you dont want to know

isnt that just ture?

your economic view is just opposite to my point of view.

your view on Korean economy is just copy and paste.
my view on Korean economy is no just copy and paste because those industries
Korean are poducing products that are far beyond Japanese technology.
like you said if it was copy and paste, it is not possible. Korea will never make
things better than Japan, because our limitation of creation? haha

in steel making, did Nippon steel company overtake Posco?
because Nippon dont know how to make steel directly from stone.
Posco invented way to produce steel directly from stone without any other procedure. thus, Korea produces most Iron in the world. you need to be updated.

do you like Game? Korea is world's no. 1 online game maker.
we make world's most popular and incredible games, so many games relased from Korea that goes to every world.
2009, world's most popular game were all Korean game ! check out for yourself

About the Mircochip and semiconductor,
you know Korean companies (Samsung, Hynix) hold world's 60% semiconductor
market, there are no Japanese company can compete with Korea.
not just semiconductor, mememory making, Korea is also world's 1.
you said you are in semiconductor industry, if so, why dont you know?
Korea is world's number 1 semiconductor maker, therefore, in anytime microchip
will be thrown to Korean. because it is bagically no different.
(intell) or IBM was the main companies that produced CPU chips but it is also
anytime thrown by Korean because the memory industries are now making almost
as complex as making CPU.
However, I think the future lies with either Korean or American within this field.

About the car industries.
you mentioned that Japanese electronic cars are world's best. if so why GM and Crysler have choosen LG chemisty's battery for their production? GM is America's 1 biggest and world's 2 biggest car maker. I dont think they chose LG battery over Japanese just because we make it cheaper. infact, Korea is world's 1. about electronic car, Hyundai got many best award from many of world's electronic car rally. Japanese people are more into making hybrid cars. thus, Japan lost to Korea
on this area. see. Korean are very quick and wise of making decisions for our future. we already expected that the world will consume more electronic cars than
Hybrids thus our government made direction to Korean companies to create world's best electronic cars from early 1990.

About the low money exchange rate of Korean won against dollar.
the thing is what you say is just out of economic commonsense.
you even posted that rise of Japanese yen meant to be stable and healthy grwoth
of Japanese economy. in any circumstances, it is not a good news when a countries currency rise against other nations. it happens when a countries economy does really well that the forigners buys the country's debenture, because of the economic boost. that mean that other country's investor put there investment money into the boosting country because they think it is safe place.
however, now when you look at Japan's economy. it is so werid. the GDP is worst
ever, the trade deficit grows so seriously. infacnt the 2009 early Japan's economy was -11%. it is serious.
but yet, Japanese money currency rises, it is becoming more expensive against dollar and Korean won. you said it is because of the healthy economy of Japan.
yet. Japan economy grew -11% and the trade deficit is the biggest ever.
even your famous company TOYOTA annouced that their sales profict decreased 30%, luxious -40%, Sony -50%, and so on on.

thus, when you look at the rise of Yen, it is not a good thing.
but it make more damage to Japan's economy and it will bring out more economic deficit. yet. you are thinking it is good thing. because you know nothing about economy. you are happy because you can spend more moeny buying Italian brands.

Korean exchange rate seemed to rise after the european finacial crisis broke out.
Korean government knew that if the moeny exchange rate rise that will damage the nations economy and will make companies difficult to compete in global market.
Korean government released 200 billion dollars and plus 150 billion dollars to stimulate the fall of Won value against Dollar and Yen. that worked despite European investor were poring moeny into many Asian nations. mainly Japan or Korea, China. becasue these countries have a lot of national reserves that will make more safe for European investor to deposit thier money.
Korea succeeded maintaining low Korean Won value. thus, Our economy is recovering most fast in the whole world. we are the president country of G20 because our economy grew +2% despite the whole world's recession in economy.

you mentioned that IMF money is Japanese foundation.
I dont think so. because it is foundated by world OECD countries, not just Japan.
yes, in recent situation, European nations need a lot of financial support. thus
IMF reqeusted Japan to loan 700 billion dollars to IMF. but that doesnt make
IMF is Japanese finance and thus, 1999, when Asian financial crisis stroke, most
of Asian nation needed the support of IMF. but Japan had money (because of your glorious economic growth between 1970 to 1985) Japan national reserve is world's 1. and it is around 1 trillion dollars. thus Japan needed no help from IMF.
at that time Korea, didnt realise how important to sustain enough national reserve, that is why Korea put every profit into R&D, and didnt save it.
from since Asian crisis, Korea have been progressily making strong national reserve, and it is not world's 4th largest. around 2500 billion dollars.

however, if you have too much dollars in your national reserve, it is not good.
because the nation's money exchange rate will rise high. do you understand?
that is why Korea do not hold more than 2500 billion dollars. because we want the
value of Won as low as possible.
I hope you are catching the economical understanding so far.

Korean Hyundai and Samsung, LG, STX, SK, KT and so on. are not small companies. they are world's biggist companies and still expending thier business around the world. the important thing is, most Korean industries do overlap with
Japanese main national industries ( Car, electronics, chemical, nuclear enegy, ship bulliding, robot, and so on).
infact, Korean are leading the whole world in Eelectoronics, chemical, nuclear energy, ship bullding for sure. because we are number 1.
about the car and Robot. it is hard to say Japan is better than Korea. but yes
Japan or Korea are leading the world. Toyota is only company that are better
in sales and production than Hyundai. however, Hyundai is getting more stronger
and getting bigger every year. there are many Korean Car companies in Korea. besides Hyundai (Hyundai, Kia, Samsung, GM Dawoo, Ssangyong, spira and so on) this year. Hyundai launched Genisis and it got America, Canada's best Car of the year 2009. and Kia's Porte got 2009 European best car of the year award.
because Hyundai developed unique style, engine that produces equal performance
as Benz or BMW 6 serise which much lower cost of manifecturing. Hyundai was Asia's first car company got this award in luxury sedan. even Toyota's Luxious
didnt get this award before. this is Korea's power and innovation.

you mentioned that Apple doesnt pay royalty to Korea? they are paying royalties to Kowon. so does all your Japanese companies pays.
Kowon invented world's first MP3 player. yet IPod is world wider famous MP3 player. it uses Samsung & Hynix memory chips. thus the more people buy IPod it is good for Korean companies too. Kowon is one of main MP3 maker in Korea.
Irivers, Samsung, LG are main makers. therefore, Ipod is not a great threat to Korea. Korea aiming to be recover the dominace in this industries. because we
invented this thing.

about the size of the Korean economy, it is world 10th largest, around 9,800 billion dollars. and yes, it is about 1/3 of the size of Japan's economy. however
it is because of our money exchange rate. if Korean people decide to rise the value
of Korean Won, to be as equally to Japanese Yen, (but it is not good for the economy of course). the Korean GDP will be as big as around 30,000 billion dollars which is about 2/3 of Japanese economy. but remember, Korea population is only around 48 million, it is nealy 1/3 of Japanese population. Korean already
are making more money than Japanese. and Our economy is not as small as you
think.
the reason why Korea is not in top 7, G7, it is because the european money is expensive than Korean won. it is not because of our economy is smaller than them. for example, England, France, Italy, Germany is in top 7, those countries are actually smaller than Korean economy. just their moeny value is 3 times higer than Korean Won. and the reason why Japanese is world's 2n is because the moeny value of Yen is expensive. it is world's second most expensive. after the European. that is actually main reason.

now, Korean govenment is aiming to increase our GDP up to 40,000 billion dollars by within 15 years without increasing the Won value. which mean, the govenment is keeping the Won value low as now, and increase export and import and domestic commerce. it is different to Japan's economic growth. if we compare them in a line. Japan became in top 7 by increasing the value of Yen. but Korea is becoming in top 7 without incresing the Won value. which is harder thing.

Korea faces a lot of barriers to achieve that dream. however, if we do, we will be the greatest Asian nation. a good model to all develping countries.
it will be a hope for many countires that have suffered wars.

Korea products are cheaper than Japanese because our Won value is lower than Japanese Yen. but I am proud of Korean Won. because our govenment is doing just fine and making rightful decision.

moreover, Korean economy will be world's 4th largest in size of exporting.

Korean govenment is predicting for the size of our nation's exports will overtake Japan's by 2022. and it will be world's 4th largest
exporting nation. by 2022, Korea will be no.4th largest exporting economy followed by China, America, Germany. Japan is on 5th, poor nation.

2022, world rank : 1st China (69,200 billion dollars), 2nd America (28,000 billion), 3rd Germany (21,600 billion), 4th Korea (11,900 billion) 5h Japan (11,200 billion)

Korea will keep grow until we overtake Germany by 2030. but Japan will fall until world's 8th. Korea has 1/3 population
of Japan, yet we work 3 times more efficient and harder than Japanese. Korean are strong people.

about the latest tele-communication technology.

DMB is invented in Korea SK tellecom, however, DMB service is started first by MBCo Japanese company because they launched satellite with Sk Tellecom yet.
Sk was little late to chose the domestic company to start the service.

DAB was the original technology from England, Korea invented DMB and now
Korea also invented DMB+DAB service first in the world.
. plus, Korea invented DMB on the ground service which can provide DVD quality digital screen + satellite DMB service.

you may see MBCo (Japanese company) to be world's first company that started DMB service but it is invented in Korea by SK. Korea just was little late because SK was still choosing domestic company to start the business.
plus, recently. Samsung and LG have invented world's first DMB which combination of satellite and on the ground service that has satellite service with DVD quality screen.

and about the steel production.
I am sorry that I said Korea produces most steel in the world. I had to mean that
Korean companies has best techonology to make steel. Posco is Korea's number 1. steel company that produce around 340 million tons of steels. it is currently world's 4th. after 1. Mittal (1030 million ton), 2. Nippon steel (370 million), 3 Biostal (364 million).

the Chinese steel company is rapidly expending the producing amound, thus next
year you may see China become world's 2nd.
However, Posco is planing to bulliding giant factories in India , Vetnam, China, Brazil to increase the production up to 450 million within 5 years. moreover,
Posco has invented world's best steel producing technology "Pinex" , it is way
to produce steel without smelting[blast] furnace which does make 30% more steel
and produce 25% less pollution, reduce the production time up to 40%.

it is world's best techology that many Japanese and Chinese companies offered moeny for techonology transfer but Posco refused.
that is why I think future.. Korea will be world's 1 in qaulity making steel. maybe
number 2. in size of producing steel. after china.

Posco is currently providing steel to Toyota, Sony. they make car and Tv with Posco's steel sheet. because its world's best quality.

and lastly about the Korea's economic status, its 9,800 billion dollars. its world's 12th or 13th. but Korea is keep growing fast. 4-5% GDP developement will make
us world's 8th biggest economy by 2020. 7th biggiest by 2025.
however, look at the population of this countries around Korea.
their population is nealy 30 times or 40 times more, Korea has the smallest population.
most small natural resource. most small number of university graduate, most small land, yet. we have come long way. has shown how strong our nation is.
if we become world's 7th biggist nation, that means as nearly world's 1. to Korean people.

and about the America and Korea divinded into two countries.
I believe, we, Korean people can not blame any other nations. because eventhough
other countries has pushed us to fight. the person chose to fight was Korean itself. many Korean people do admit that it was our fault. we still dont know why
we fought in Korean war. yet we still dont know who started the war.
one thing we know is that we are same brothers and same nation.
North Korea will be unified with South Korea. and unlikely it will be same as German example. our unification will start slowly with first South Korea support
North Korea's economy. if the unification happens, Korea will be connected to
Russia and China, that will lead us to Easten Asia and Europe without flight or ship. it will be time for the glory for Korean economy.

we dont blame American or either Russian.

one more thing.
the Korean moeny vaule will not rise as long as our Korean government keep
eye on it. unlike Japan and other European nation, Korean government has bigger
ambition, that we want to be world's 1 strong nation. for that we must not
increase the Won vaule now, to maximise the profit from trade and make our domestic companies stronger until we can be competitive in the world.
but you said, if the Korean economy is strong the Won value has to rise?
no, it is technically right opinion but Korean government is not stupid.
because if we rise the Won value, it will damage our nation's economy.

and one more about the bond between American and Korea.

I am sure you are not a chirstian. if you are, you would know about England defending Israel from Easten Asian countries for more than 1000 years before WW2 broke out. Japan framed alliance with Germany and Italy, and attacked
England and America. but infact, it is all written in Bible (holy book that is written by angels in christianity). Bible had prophecised about the WW2. England is christian nation, in Bible, it was prophecised that England will protect Israel from Easten Asian nations. England did protect Israel because the bible prophecised.
one more, in bible, it is prophecised, America will protect Israel and Korea.
because Korea will be next holy place where God's message will be spread though this country. Korea's christianity have grown faster than any nation and we are sending world's most missionaries to every nations. America is also cristian nation. they
believe that somehow. Korea need to be protected. that is why, like bible prophecised about the Japan's invasion, Korean war, we Korean and American belive in Bible. and we bond together. Korea is now delivering Christianity to everywhere. that is why Internet is very much developed in Korea. I think it is
as Bilble prophecised " a nation from east, where sun rises, they will be God's
trump that would deliver God's message. God said, we will protect your nation
from any nations brutal invasion on your nation." that is written in Bible.

and you said like the bible may have mentioned the country from east would be Japan rather than Korea. well. sorry. but the bible have mentioned more things
it said the country is call Dan nation. and it wears white cloth. this country suffers most in east countries over other nations brutal attack and invations
well. Korean people still belive that our nation was originaly from a guy call DanGun. Dan was his name and Gun means King in Korea. so it means Dan King.
therefore, there was a Dan country that appears to be the first nation in east Asia. that was the origin of Korea. and also Korean people wears white
cloth. that is why we called ourself "White costume nation" because our ancestors believed that white means clean and holy towards God.
every body until now, when you are Korean, we wear White cloth in special day. HanBok was originally white. before HanBok was all white.
that is why Korea is the country that was written in Bible.

you are not a chiristian but you read a lot bibles . and think European would
not think the chosen nation means Korea.

I mean.. who would agree on that? every nation would be envy to be that nation.
if the bible have worte that the nation was from west that speaks french. I wouldnt
agree on the idea that the chosen nation mean France. because I would be jealous.

However, it is not me that made up the story. infact. it was not my interpretation.
if you were a Christian. you would many time heard about the prophecy. Bible never prophecised one false prophecy so far (for 4 thousand years)
we christian people belive in it. unfortunatly, the bible mentioned it.
I dont have all of it. but I can tell you few.
look at Revelation 7:1-17 , Isaiah 24:14-16, 41:2-15, 46:10-11
Genesis 11: 29-30 (Dan) -> mesha is towards Turkey
Sephar is towards Siberia -> this leads to Korea.
Turkey and Korea people call each other brother
country. we have same language structure, food,
culture, and Korean are closest to Turkish in DNA, language origin.
I only have these but
there are more evidence that the reason why a lot of scholars in Bible predicts that the next chosen nation is Korea. it has to be. Korea is currently world's 1. nation
sending most missionaries. it was England who did send most missionaries than
it is now Korea. just like the bible have prophecised. Bible prophecised that after Korea is Israel. we still dont know what this mean is.

now you talk about the bond between America and Korea.
in recent Times-newspaper quoted that last American president Bush and current president Obama, had mentioned that " Korea is America's closest and greatest friend " why? ask that question to yourself.
this bond, is not made of money or business crossover, it is only made out of
faith towards the holy bible.

I hope you get something out from what I have worte.

god bless you and your family.

you may also know about Hanryu (Korean wave)

the reason why Japanese culture is well known in America

and not much of Korean culture has not been known in there,

it is because of the development of Japanese economy.

Infact, as recently, Korean economy is becoming world's new strong

engine. (10th laregest, 7th largest by 2020).

Before, Korea has been poor.. back in 1970, while Japanese people recoverd

thier fallen economy (after WW2) over Korean war (1945), and made enormous

economic development, Korean people suffered hunger, in 1970, GNI in

Korea was only 100 dollar, it was poorer than Philliphine or Chinese.

Korea's economic development was not based on someone else's war.

we did it with our bare hands.

of course, Japan's economic development is something they should be

proud of.

However, we Korean are as much proud of oursalves about our nation and development.

Korean culture and language, is at this current time in Asia, more popular

than Japan. we call this Hanryu (the Korean Wave).

the reason is, we may dont have Japanese like Manga (but we make Simpson, transformer, Pink Phanthor),

however, Korea's flim and music, food, life style, it is most loved and cherished many Asian

people. In fact, even Japanese people are now going crazy about Korean

culture, because Korean culture, it is not the just because of the fun side, it has histories.

that relates Asian together. While Japanese people tend to make fancy

fantasy Manga and Drama, Korean are making historical Drama, books, Flims

that makes Asian feel, remember as who we are. (Japanese childeren even dont get to learn thier history in school (its not compulsory).

it makes us feel.. good. by remembering who we are (Isn't it?). and the tradition of

old Asian nations.

you are American. and yes, you may seen some many American want to study

Japanese, and love their Manga, animation. because they have grown up

with watching Japanese animation since they were young. (but the time has passed, will you make your child growing watching them as well?)

but, remember, you can not understand the Asia through Japan (Japan is just a small part in Asian history & culture).

infact, I am in Australia, Korean and Chinese studies are becoming very

popular. and unlike your situation.

you know Hollywood? Korea is buliding Hanryuwood (sound it as we are copying

American culture tough,,^^). Which, it is a place Similar to Hollywood.

the Korean government is buliding this place near Incheon (with budget of 800 billion dollars), it is because we think that

the popularity of Korean culture should not end as our credit. Korea think this

demands for Korean culture represents the Asian nations wants to be independent

from American culture and start to enjoy our own diversities in culture around Asian nations.

Asians want our traditions and cultures to be recognised and be loved to other nations around the world.

Thus, Korea's Hanryuwood is going to be a place, where whole Asian people come to Korea to showcase

thier flims and cultures, food, music, every people in the world come to enjoy, experiencing the spirit of Asia.

this is going to be the biggest stage of All time.

I dont want to interrupt your loving of Japanese culture. and I am sure there is nothing wrong with you like thier culture.

just want to tell you this, within 10 years (by 2020), when Korean economy becomes

world's 7th largest. American people then may would open thier heart towards Korean

culture. it is loving, repecting, remembering, right, justice, tradition, historical. they are all in our culture.

you will realise how childish like culture is Japanese. in fact, Korea has everything

you like about Japanese culture, Sushi, Geisha, Samurai, and so on. ( Sushi is similar to Korean Gimbab, Geisha is similar to Korean Gishang, Samurai

is similar to Korean Musa, NinJa is not only Japanese culture it is from China, in Korea we call it Jagek).

Because Korean people were the mother country of Japan. we have everything

they have, yet have more thing they dont have, it is just pitiful thing that you didnt have tasted the richness of Korean culture.

infact, when you see into Korean culture, you will feel much more old, and

historical than Japanese, that is why the whole Asian people are becoming addicted to Korean culture.

Asia is a vast area, it starts from the central Asia, China, India, Russia (culturally), Korea, Japan, south Asian).

the population of Asia inconsist 60% of whole world's population. In Asia, Korean culture is most popular.

If Japan is no longer the richest Asian nation,

you may lose your lnterest in them quickly for sure, because even now

their economy is larger than Korea, Korean culture dominates in Asia over Japan.

because the richness of 5000 years and 2200 years is quite different in quality (and the Korean culture is very unique and loving).

I hope you open your heart to Korea more in your future, Smell the real Easten Breeze, spirit of Asia.

God bless you and your nation.

Was I really being such a jackass or is the reply overkill?

Just doing some research, not much independent reviews and communities out there to talk about these things..I supposed the most famous one is Chubbs? What would be best?

Penang bridge

I guess it'll be during regular rush hours eg 7-10am, 5-7 pm. But is it in both directions or to and from penang island? That is, the morning rush hour is the lane heading towards penang island, evening rush hour is heading towards the mainalnd? THanks.

Subang to Wangsa Maju

bonedragon — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 19:05:56 +0800

Time I need to reach wangsa maju is 6pm. Either I take:
(a) federal highway to KL and then from there go to wangsa maju.
(b) park my car at kelana jaya lrt, take lrt to wangsa maju then 6 pm take lrt back to kelana jaya.

For your info, I am going to melaka after that so...i need to bear in consideration how to get to the north south expressway as well..for option a and b, how logn is the travel time?

Hey guys jsut wondering, my grandfather used to have a passport, but it was very long time ago and he threw it away after it expired about 10 years ago. Now we want to get a new passport for him but he doesn't have an old one so...apa jadi? Just apply as though never have passport before?

Where to restore old photos?

bonedragon — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 15:54:15 +0800

Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is the correct place or not, but I'll just ask anyway. Basically my mom wants to digitise and sort of restore those really old pictures that are faded and discoloured already (some of them even stick on to other photos due to being closed in an album for years..). Some of them have negatives but I think mostly don't have la. Any recommendation of a place that does this well and cheaply? I guess I can do a half-assed job using my scanner but I don't mind paying money for a professional to handle it.

I'm in the Subang/Puchong area.

Thanks.

I thought that this section should have a thread dedicated to how NOT to act or make a movie. So i'll attach a video here as an example..
