I am very honoured

This is a very happy new year for me. Even though I am not a Chinese, I have received an 'ANG POW' in the way of a response from (MTPB) Malaysian Tourism & Promotion Board. Their invitation for me to visit their office is something that I have been looking forward to and I am sincerely and truly honoured.

Some of you already know, I will be leaving my present job on an 'early retirement' I may be joining another company within the next couple of months. With this new company, although on an advisory capacity, Insya Allah, I would like to play my part in promoting Malaysia, not only to the foreigners but also to Malaysians.

Malaysia is a very beautiful country but how many of us have travelled its length and breadth to how fantastic this country is?

My first plan was to drive around the country and maybe write about Malaysia in my blog but then again, how many people read my blog?

Then, I was thinking of just writing and submitting my so called report to MTPB on how to promote Malaysia through the eyes of someone from the industry, a retired one at that. (Even if MTPM does not accept my recommendation, I will atleast know that I have done my part in doing something for Malaysia) - Nawaitu yang penting

To the person from MTPB who commented in this blog and sent me the personal invitation, I am truly honoured and willing to accept your invitation but would really appreciate more details on whom I should meet or call.

Before I started this blog, I was of the opinion that it will be just for fun and friends. Now I realise there are others that are reading it too.

I hope that this year of the Ox will make our country stronger and weather this economic uncertainty.
