The autumn breeze is coming up now as our time in Korea is about to come to an end. The last remaining few days we had several times of our favorites spaghetti in a shopping complex near the Ori Station. We head to Homeever which is also our favorite shopping mall as it is the nearest complex available at the place we stayed. Seafood spaghetti is a must for us to have every Wednesday every week.

Again, I'm showing you how amazing is the internet speed in Korea. Here is an example of the video captured download speed. The file is an Adobe InDesign downloaded from Adobe website. The file size is about 450Mb! Checkout the through put download speed!!!

The COEX shopping centre is located near the Han River just about 10 minutes from Seoul city centre (I'm refering to Itaewon) by subway. If you were to go there, just take a subway line number 2 which circulate the city centre, get off at the Samseong station. Once you get off, you will easily notice the signboard to COEX and follow all the way there. It's very famous for its underground level

These Koreans really love reading. These photos are taken at a bookstore in Coex Shopping Centre in Seoul. Notice that how many people enjoy reading at this bookstore's seating area. It's part of their natural habits - reading - no matter where or when.This is one more reason why the Koreans are doing very well in their technologies and economics as compared to several other nations which gained

This article is dedicated to lecturers and cancer patients. I knew that this article is a bit out of topic from this blog but I'd like to have it posted anyway because I am also a lecturer. This article is very interesting to me. It helps to make me think of what we are, where do we stand and how are we doing in our life.It's a story about a professor of Carnegie Mellon University who had been

One nice weekend in Korea, Mr Park spent his whole day to take us to Nami Island, a place where the shooting of Winter Sonata took place. This has been more than a month ago but only now i thought that I should put this up on my blog since that there's nothing is up actively lately. So here they are:This is a bungee jump tower which is situated just at the boat jetty to Nami Island.Owhh somebody

Korea is in the Summer season at this moment. It's not as hot as in Malaysia but the people couldn't stand it much. I can't stand to be in a hot temperature either, so i guess that I am not much different than the Korean in that sense. I could be sweating like hell even by just standing in a warm atmosphere without much wind. People would find it weird especially Malaysian seeing me sweating like

How often do you receive free copy of newspaper? In a developed countries like Korea, there are several brands of free newspapers distributed at any train stations, bus stop & public places. The news companies survive by the advertisement slot sold to corporations. They must have earned so much to the point that they can give it for free. Maybe these news company are being sponsored by government

Korea has quite a number of vehicle manufacturers including Hyundai, Kia, Samsung, Daewoo & others to name a few. The automotive industry in Korea is becoming a highly profitable business and becoming as one of the country’s major export. The promotion for Hyundai Sonata in United States in a few years back was very intense and very promising. It’s the advertisements and promotions that boost up

It's being practiced all over the Asians whether in Melbourne, Kuala Lumpur, Seoul etc. I'm not too sure if this culture exists in western countries. I'm saying this because i've been in those places. Therefore this is about my own opinion & experiences. This could be different with some other people.Whenever you are on a public transport, the seats are limited and should be reserved for certain

Korea follows the USA style in their transportation system. They drive on their right hand side and therefore their driver's side is on the left. It would be a little weird for those who are used to drive on the left hand side because they are required to change everything in the opposite ways. Koreans are polite and kind. They respect the elderly very much up to the point that if an old man

The Korean living in a very healthy lifestyle as compared to other countries. They do not really eat fried foods. If they are going to have one, it's not too oily. Their main meal always prepared with several types of vegetables besides meat. They usually have several types of raw fish for dinner together with some sushis and several types of vegetables (up to 7 types of veges).You know it's hard

What Koreans do most while traveling on public transport? The following are the list according to priority. Read newspaper - lots of free nwsppr distributed at train sttn.Read sth elseWrite sth.Listen to music /mp4Short napWatch people aroundTalking.Well, what do other people from other countries do?

The public transportation system in Seoul is quite efficient. The main transport which I would prefer is the subway train. Seoul has quite an extensive underground railway network which covers the Seoul huge city and its satellite cities around. The train frequency is very high especially in the morning and in the evening. I would say the train will come around every 10 minutes. The

A decade ago, Samsung was like Haier these days. The brand wasn't really appealing to anybody and considered a very cheap and low class products. After a while it became very hot due to cheap price but with good quality and durable. The same goes with LG which is now getting very popular in Consumer Electronics Industries. These are the two Korean Brands which contributes the most in Korean

Korea is leading country in the world in terms of internet speed. Check out the image on the left. The average speed for Korea is 26 Mbps. I did several test and found out that the maximum speed is 44 Mbps and the minimum is 29 Mbps. The test is done in the morning on Korean National Day (public holiday). This is expected because not many people uses the internet in the morning especially on

Mr Park, the Managing Director of HI System is a very kind and humble person. It's not easy to find such kind of people in the world. If we were in Malaysia, rarely people treat foreigner or stranger in such ways. The first 3 days we had free meal (lunch & dinner). We wanted to pay but he insisted. He picked us up at our minitel to the office himself eventhough he could have asked his staff to

The first day we we introduced to the facilities which HI system have, the administration office and their Lab. All the components on the shelf and on the component drawers are accessible and free for us to pick at anytime. It feels like you were in the department store and you are allowed to take anything there for free at anytime. It felt so good. We will be trained to build robots starting

Mr park took us to see our accommodation. Checked in and the rental is about USD500 per month per person. Quite a small room but the facilities are quite good. Our rooms are equipped with refrigerator, air-cond, bathroom, cupboard, cabinets, TV and also the internet (the most important ones). We had to share the kitchen, washing machines, etc. Other than that are not provided. There are cheaper

Going along with us are Mejar Suhaimi & Wife, Mr Rahim (siranco Malaysia) and wife.

Hi there,This blog is intended to be used as my "logbook" to ease the final report submission for the industrial attachment at HI-System in Sungnam City, Korea. I thought that when the time comes, then I just have to copy from this blog & paste it on my report. A day before going to Korea, I went back to my parents house in Rawang. On saturday morning, i went to the town to change my ringgit
