Dear readers,

Since this article appeared in New Straits Times dated 20th Jan 2008, our blog has been inundated with spams and comments, bouquet and occasional brickbats, but mostly by people trying to popularize their own websites. As there are just too many off-topic comments, we have decided not to feature any comment feedback at all for this post to save webhost memory space.

Some of you have given very good advices, suggestions and the best part, many volunteered to help. It’s not possible to reply to all comments and emails although many many are from well meaning people.

Here’s a sincere Terima kasih from us. We’ve read all comments and we thank you for your kind interest.
