Murphy: lol. but still they don't speak Malay or Sabahan like we do here kan hahaha. English is also my 2nd language yet to communicate with other people is a must. Be it the Europeans, Indians, Chinese, Ameriacan... because as simple as this, I don't speak their mother's tongue. Wel, Messy & Arms: ahaha ya ba.

When I was in primary and secondary..BI was the subject that I hated the most..but I still don't get it because most BI teachers were nice to that days..probably because their expectation (my father guru besar ba..haha) so..no matter what..no matter how I tried to ignore this subject..I always ended up being the chosen among others to and must speak or respond to their queries by BI as well..I thought it was biased at that time..my father even bought this BI learning tool package..yg ada kaset tu ba..but again..I never really cared..now..I ended up working with UK based company. We have no client from Asia at or even Malaysia..this company has branch in Malaysia and Aus only..so..to cut the story short..BI is a must for me..its become my daily language..dalam ofis la..hehe..but my principle is..if I know or meet a new friend then we spoke in BI as intro...then it will be BI..due to my lackadaisical to BI..I was struggling during my early employment in this company..by the time goes..I learned a lot and improve a lot...well..the company invested much also sending the 1st batch staff in Malaysia to British Council classes (Business speaking)..I'm grateful and thought if really concentrate during those years kan..wah..hehe..ada salah grammar ka ni..hehe..
