The painful lesson from my dad
Last weekend I was invited to launch the 30th Kinderland Anniversary Charity Concert and Carnival. Kinderland centres from all over Klang Valley and even Ipoh were present.

Ever since the election, I have been invited to numerous functions by my constituents. Malaysians love food. Each function I attended, I felt obliged to “eat a little” because the organiser would have gone to great extent in preparing food for us.
