No Car or Careless - first public announcement and celebration

So far I have never owned a car and I have graduated from a university in 1990s. 2009 is my first year of public announcement and celebration for being carless or having no car, but I am not alone. I know, it is a shock to people in Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia.

P.S. You can use 'no car' picture above for your site :-)

Cloud or haze at Vista Komanwel, Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur

Three pictures of the sky above Vista Komanwel C are taken in the morning of 24th October, 2009. The sky is definitely not clear. The situation is due to cloud or haze? Since I do not have pictures of sky above Vista Komanwel during haze/dry season, you can infer your conclusion by comparing October air polution index for Kuala Lumpur from 2005 to 2009

What is your download speed?

Netlynx feedback required

I am still on TIME Broadband 384kbps plan. Those who are using Netlynx, can you please provide some feedback, e.g. result of speed test to a US server using speedtest.net?

BTW, you can try to use Singapore proxy to improve surfing speed for some international websites.
