i am updating my blogroll. where exactly are you in finland bro?

Hello Lim,
I hope you enjoy your stay in Finland.This is a country that is as big as our bolehland but has less people,less tall buildings,less cars in the streets,less smoke and literally no corruption.I have visited Soumiland no less than 25 times and love everything about it except the cuaca and I have been to Lapland too.But didn’t catch the glimpse of Santa Claus .Anyway saw lots of reindeers.Visited Pori,Tampere,Helsinki,Oulu,Turku and many other towns during the course of my work (worked for the famed Outokumpu Group as Snr HR Manager).
The Finns are serious people and don’t believe in small talk and they love their coffee more than anything else.You can say they are very intelligent and can be the best of friends if you are able to impress them.
I hope you will come away enriched and enjoy every minute of your stay.
Warm Regards
Manoharan

Hello, Manoharan.
Thank you for drop by.
Yes, I’m very impress with Finns attitude. To me, they are very self discipline. I like coffee very much; therefore, I join the club at here. I drink more coffee at here than in Malaysia :)
The weather here is fine to me, I like cold weather…always make you feel “fresh” :)
All the best to you. Thanks.
Best regards,
Kean-Jin

accidentally get into your site :roll: !
Dont know much about what your blog content & yet the word Norway brings back a lot of memory looong time ago.
20+ yrs ago I used to cover Norway as one of my trading area. Oslo was my frequent stop. Yah! there’re many Subcon Indians there too, to my surprises. Are ther still that many there now?
Those Norwegians couldnt get me amused more than the sub-zero temp! & I’ve many of them to called friends them. Even now some are still in contact though we’re more in our twilight years now.
BTW what are you ding in Norway - some research? Care to share some light?

KJ: I’m not in Norway, hmmmmmm……

Hello, mind if I ask you which secondary school you go to?

As long as your point is there … grammatical wise … I think it’s just a secondary problem … of course unless you are submitting your writing for some kind of writing competition …
Keep it up lah!

Hi Kean Jin,
I love your blog site.I know Finland quite well and one of my good friends live there from since the 70’s-a great country-just 4 million uncorruptible people but so talented they are the world’s No 1 in mobile phones.And don’t forget Sibelius-whose Finlandia is practically the Finns national anthem.I’ll look u up next time I’m there .
Rgds , liong
KJ: Thanks for drop by. Nice to meet you.

Do you know how many Malaysians are making their living in Finland legally? What is the cost of living in Helsinki compared to London? And is English widely used in Finland?
KJ: Dear Pangsai* (Pangsai, is Hokkien; a Chinese dialect means doing big business in toilet), I had replied your questions through e-mail. Check it, please.
*This is your name?

Hi,
For a moment I though the initials “KJ” refered to the infamous one. Luckily it wasn’t. It is good to meet you KJ.
Thanks.
KJ: Nice to meet you too, Zaaba.
