Hello Captain Lim,

Yes, it was a very pleasant surprise to hear your voice at the end of the phone when you called from Melbourne.
Next time - let me know your number and I can call you back. These days I use a prepaid mobile sim card (same phone number) and I have built up over A$750 worth of calls.

I am waiting doe Air Asia to fly to Sydney as MAS still has the monopoly for the KL-Sydney-KL route. It is no wonder MAS is fighting tooth and nail to prevent Air ASia from flying this route.

Glad to hear you are enjoying the literature - Mun Chin's ears (and eyes) must be burning from the missing out. Ha-ha-ha!
Don't worry.....lots more material to come. I have to ration it out otherwise you guys will suffer a "stand-down" from too much in one go.
