Being able to see and read how does the Korean making their kimchi / pekasam, it does not need a lot of work to do. As long as you are able to follow the recipe.
As for reference
Long Cabbage - slices into small pieces - soak in a water with salt for 2 hours - stir well every 30 minutes
Porridge - boil 2 cups of water - add 2 spoonful glutinous flour - once cook, add in sugar - cook until translucent in color - keep cool
Vegetable - cut the radish and carrot into match stick - cut thinly the chives
Fermented shrimp - to add the taste
Fish sauce - to add the aroma
Chili Flakes - add in according to your taste
Mixed all together in a large basin and keep well in your tight container.
You can choose to eat it on its own or to add into your beef stew / noodle.
Its always great to prepare the food on our own. If you bought the ready made in our local store, they might have put in preservative to keep the longevity. As Mangchii always said, prepare the dish on your own as she had prepared the recipe for us to follow. It just a matter of when we are going to try it out and enjoy.

Soft Reminder
When we are fighting the economy in this 2016, the are a few category that we should always look forward to.
1) Wealth
It is always a rich person before you becoming poor.
2) Free
Always appreciate your free time because you will never know when will you be busy again. Once you are busy, appreciate your busy time too because you will never know when will you have your last day at work.
3) Health
When you are in your thirties, you will encounter a lot of issue especially with all the elder folks in your family. You will notice that they are often visiting the hospital without you realize that they will heading away from you. Very far away. It is always good to be healthy. But a healthy today cannot guarantee a healthy tomorrow. The sickness will always come along in human life. When the time has come, there is nothing more that we could do. Learn to accept the fact right.
4) Youth
Being young is always the great year. All the people in early 20s is at their best ten years before they started to commit to marriage and career. Beware that after your youth, adult come along with responsibility.
5) Life
Last but not least, appreciate what happens in your life now and be grateful always as we never know when will God take us away.

Pekasam / Pickled / Kimchi
In old days, hundred of years ago, there are many ways that all mankind are doing in order to keep their food enough for all season. It does not matter where are they, but if we are talking about food, we will always talk about the same menu regardless of you notice it or not.
Come to my senses lately that I notice this.
Found in Malaysia is what we called a "pekasam". This pekasam is vary depending on what sort you like it to be. By adding a sugar/salt, that will compliment the making of this pekasam.
In Korea, they called it as "kimchi" They have a very long list of kimchi. I was once never notice what could it be until one day that I made one. My mother told me that it is almost the same way on how we are making our pekasam here in Malaysia.
The American called their fermented dish a "pickled".
There are slight different in the ingredients of course. But the three of them either using salt nor sugar to ferment the dishes as this two are the main ingredients.

Money Comes Easy
Many would say, if you don't change yourself yourself, then who will?
"Have you never thought of luxury car and wonderful vacation?"
"This is the only chance that you can make a lot of money."
"By paying premium amount of XXXX, you will get back almost 1000xxxxx in return."
"Do you still need to do the office job whereby actually you have another option by joining our group, you will spend more time for your family?"
"Ever came across something that will give you a good returns instead of waiting for the fixed deposit returns?"
"Financial freedom for anyone who is wise to choose our program"
Sounds familiar? I heard about all this a lot and I have been tricked to join this type of scam multiple times already. And still I cannot believe myself. That I am falling to their trick again and again. Guess what? I have not getting any returns at all. Well, I would say I manage to get some but it was very minimal amount. I shall not screenshot it here. I don't mean to recruit anyone by writing it here anyway.
They (the upline) would say that I don't do enough. If I want to gain more, I shall need to recruit new member. By recruiting new member, I will get a very high amount of commission (contributed by the joining fee of purchasing any product available). This membership also have a validity period. Shall you wanted to be active again, you will need to re-apply. Some of the membership valid for 1 year only. It really depends on which program are you joining.
Sounds not easy to gain the wealth, right?
Some might need you to buy their product, recruiting new member again and again to maintain your monthly income. Whats the point of having their product and getting the commission then?
The product varies from fruit juice, multivitamin supply and etc. Its basically almost the same product that you can find in your local stores with the same benefits. Why should we choose the expensive one? For the commission? Did I not mentioning that the joining fee is very expensive earlier? And sometimes, they said that they can give you a cheaper price too. That is where the lies begin.
After they recruit you, you will then need to seek out for your friends who is easy to be persuade to join. And when your friend has join, your friend will invite her/his friend. You will surely try to look for your family members too. Will they interested to join you? Will you speak daringly mentioning how good is your product and telling them that by joining this group will lead you to success?
Favorable quote "By eating this product, you will chase all the bad bacteria away"
Have you met a doctor and the doctor is asking you if you get any better after he prescribed you with a paracetamol. If you are getting well already, do you think you will need paracetamol every other healthy day? I mean, do you need a monthly supply of it? Do doctors earn any commission out from it? Do you believe that you will need to repeat the order just to chase away the headache?
Have you ever thought of why do you need to take that multivitamin and they advise you to drink a lot of water at the same time? Have you ever recall that while in school, you have learn that you need a lot of water for your health. Our teacher never told us that if you drink enough water, you will have a glowing and healthy skin.
The supplement is just a supplement. Please compare the price. How can it be so expensive as compare to the market price? It is the roots of the system.
Some of the system going around and talk to you and telling you that they do not have product for you to sale. But the registration is very interesting. You will need to pay around RM4k plus to be a member. And then they will give you a water filter (for a lifetime usage). No need to be service or whatever. Next step, just find your friend who wish to have a clean water too. Got the hang in there? If you manage to recruit more people, the more you will earn. Good luck.
You can try to promote to the poor people with this statement. If you do not have money now, you can pay it on monthly basis around RM 180.00per month. Your choice. Its good for your health. The most important part is that you will have clean water in the end of the day.
Why did I know all of this? I know a lot of friends doing all of this easy money thing. I even came across the water filter thing from a bank officer. The thing that did not surprise me much is the fact that he is still a bank officer now. He said that he makes a lot of money by selling the water filter back then the first time he introduce me to the scheme.
Probably its not easy to get a new prospect, right? Why don't you just cheat yourself, recruit yourself and only you are the one in it? You will at last saving money for yourself. I am cheating myself like that though if you know what I mean.
Conclusion
What you do is always your choice. If I said that I am not interested in joining your group, please do not be mad. Life is too short for you to lose friend along the way.

Career Women Vs Full Time Housewife
In this 2016, many have seen career women walking on their way to work at 7.30am. They will hurriedly making their way home by 5.00pm and then continuing their responsibility as a mother, kitchen helper, a teacher and many more.
It is very lucky to be the full time housewife because they do not need to go by the rules of 8 - 5 schedule. They can do a lot of things without even looking at the clock.
Challenge
The major topic discussed by most people. What are their challenge?
A full time housewife need to wake up as early as 5.00am to prepare her kids to school. Soon after sending off her kids to school, she can just doze up while waiting for the kids to come back from school. Thinking about preparing lunch? She can do the cooking or eating at the coffee shop instead.
She will have a long hours playing with her kids, preparing them food, laundy and many more. Lets say that they love it this way. There is no challenge at all. :)
A career women cum mother will need to wake up at 5.00am to prepare her kids to school. Soon after sending off her kids to school, she will drive straight to her workplace. She will then need to pick up her kids from school and send them to child care (unless if she can keep them with her at her workplace).
Pick up from child care and went straight home. Doing the laundry, cooking and preparing the kids to bed.
Vision
Both of them want their kids to grow well mannered and many more credibility that no one could figure out.
Conclusion
Is it your choice that you are currently having a career to be busy with? Is it your destiny that you are marrying a rich guy and you do not need to support him financially? To all the women out there, regardless of you are a career women or a full time house wife, you deserve a big applause as nobody else can ever take your place. Nobody can judge you of what you are doing as nobody knows what is in your shoes.

Kedaulatan Undang-Undang: Remember (Korean Drama)
I am definitely not a good writer. I did not score the best in my test especially with essay question. I remember that I score C+ in my Economic Study. If I were to study on our current economy, I am pretty sure that my answer will be based on my feelings, my own assumption and will not based on the facts.
Why am I into Korean drama?
Honestly, it is because the plot of the drama is the reality of our current situation.
In this drama (I am talking about this drama entitled Remember), those who has money will always win the court (heart) regardless of the fact that he (the rich person) was a murderer. Even the attorney general is showed to be working closely to that rich family to get them away every time his son create problems. Even the issues of illegal fund was also included in this drama. It is surely not like any other ordinary drama (in my opinion).
Even most people tried their best to hunt them (the rich family) down, to look for evidence, something always came up. You might get killed if you choose to betray the rich family. The poor should just be poor and let the rich do whatever they want to.
An innocent person is sentence to death of what he is not doing. Do you know why? Because the son of the rich once said, it is wrong to be born poor. That innocent guy has to accept the fact that he is poor and the poor will have to carry all of the rich wrongdoings sentence. Being poor itself is not your choice. You just born to be poor. But it is not right to put you in jail just to cover what the rich are doing. That is why we have the above. Kedaulatan Undang-Undang. Sepatutnya, lah.
Should there be something wrong at our legal system, who can make it right? Will we be buried by the fact that the MONEY IS THE KING?
I know I cannot do much too. My opinion is just my conclusion of the Korean drama that I have been watching lately. Unfortunately, it seems to be real.

11% to 8% EPF Deduction
The deduction of EPF will now be 8% but fortunately the company is still maintaining their current pay out at 13% per month.
From this 2 option, you will have to pay 2 different amount of tax. Why? Its very hard to explain in detail.
But the conclusion is, if you agree for the deduction of 8% per month, by the end of the day you will need to pay double the fee of your current tax amount. Luckily, this thing is optional.
You still have 1 month to do the thinking.
In fact, there is a lot more to think about.
