Choke

The last 2 days have been very bad on me. The haze has been causing havoc engulfing almost all the states in Malaysia, especially Kuala Selangor (near where I live) where a state of emergency has been called. API reading was above 500 last nite.

Worst still, I work in Cyberjaya, where it's close to Putrajaya and that place has API readings above 350. Doubly bad for me, someone who has had asthma before.

Badawi has said "We now leave it to god".

I'm even contemplating moving my family back to good ol' Malacca for a while to escape the haze.

On another note, I told one of the US partners (who I used to work for and who was my mentor for many years before the economy downturn in this region forced him to go back to the states) about my decision to resign and he wished me all the best and also agreed that the firm sometimes doesn't really recognize talent correctly. Now it's 2 partners agreeing with my point of view!
