As usual we had a rousing time with the Teluk Intan election results being closely monitored on the smart phones this time around There were speculations that the winner will win by a whisper.
Chia said the early indication was 600 votes majority to Mah while Chee Kiang said the current circumstances especially it being held on a Saturday did not bode well for DAP. True to prediction, Mah won by a whisker of 238 votes.

Saik Tat then told about the wheat grass that he has been consuming for years and said it has been known to clear up clogged heart arteries.
I guess the group was spell-bound with his story.
The next popular topic was property both in Malaysia and Singapore. Would it fall?
Gim Ooi who is on the property scene spoke about the likelihood of the bubble in the Iskandar region but is confident that it will fell be only less than 10% in the Klang Valley and perhaps none of Penang Island.
Derek was of the opinion that it will at best be temporary and will leveled off perhaps in a year or so.
As usual, Chia volunteered to pay the bill.
For the next dinner which should take place when Man Lin or any of our friends from overseas return, on the suggestion of Chee Kiang, we have started a
Makan Fund.
RM 500 has been collected.
Food was good and company as usual was great.
So, until the next time then.
