About this site:

Hi, Yem here. This site is my personal website which serves several purposes…

• It’s a virtual classroom for some courses I teach at university
• It’s my personal blogging space
• It’s an extension of my personality and interests

This site is built on Wordpress and hosted with hosting24. As for Wordpress, I think it’s the best thing since the rubber tyre! 

About me:

I was born in the roaring 80’s. A time where transformers and thundercats kept the world and the universe safe. Growing up in Johor Bahru, Malaysia and having a house that can overlook Singapore, I fully understand the value of water and how not to drink any that comes out of you.

I feel that my journey to Australia, and subsequently to KL and later to Kuantan made me a stronger person. Only now do I realize that the world is such a messed up place, and it’s up to me to change it. You guys can help out if you want.

I am very politically oriented. But is terribly freaked out by the Gestapo-styled enforcement. So I’m keeping as low a profile as I can keep. I am also very interested in renewables energy. Imagine using your crap as gas? Wouldn’t that be interesting. Otherwise, I’m thinking of getting a labrador, but social norms keep on prohibiting me from doing so.

I trust the government fully. So much so that I feel that they have every right to know everything about me. In fact, later today, I plan to tell them my childhood ambitions so that they can help improve national security with that information. Heh… yea right.

I love being a muslim. But blowing myself up just to prove it isn’t my thing. I love being a Malay. But kissing the keris and waving it wildly in the air might be a tad too much. I love being a Malaysian. But preferential treatment of a certain race makes me wonder how many Malaysians are truly happy for their country.

Given all that, I love my girls, both Chua and Hannah. They mean everything to me. More than you can imagine….
