Miracle Pendent!?

By wearing a special Pendent or Bracelet, you immediately can gain greater strength, flexibility, balance. So claim this company which did a few demo recently as well as last year. Can this be true? What Science is this?
.
.
The demonstrator have a series of test that he will demonstrate on you, a balance test, a few strength tests, a flexibility test. with the pendent or bracelet and with out the bracelet, and there is a water charging test, that all will seemingly convince you. Those test was done on me, and it actually seem convincing at that time.
.
.
However In my humble opinion, it is hard to quantify the results from this tests. It all is objective and not measure specifically. According to the demonstrator, results will vari from person to person.
.
.
The company have a website, videos of test with renown Malaysian sports persons, and a mat salleh sportsman, which they invite to demos here in Malaysia.

The Old Pendent

The Bracelet

The New Pendent

These Pendents and Bracelets cost RM500 plus each, may be aval at the demo at a discount of RM350 plus and this comes with a life MLM membership. Organise a demo for the demonstrator you may even get a Pendent free!

.

.

A few acquaintance have actually invested the money last year to purchase the pendents. However to me i have yet to see any "improvements" in their performance personally. One of them have actually purchase a pendent for her granddaughter and she say the kid is more active now.

Well if this is true, then Security and Enforcement agencies better look it to this matter urgently. By having Enhance security and enforcement personnel's, we should all be sleeping much better in our beds. ;-)

RM2.704 per liter of Petrol?

How much is per liter of Petrol now? All the papers, Main Stream Media, is saying it is at RM2.70 per liter, but the pump says it RM2.704 per liter? What up? See picture above.
.
.
Pay extra 0.4 cents per liter does not sound much but when apply to the whole industry? 10 liter you pay extra 4 cents, 100 liters pay extra 40 cents, 1000 liters it RM4, 10,000 liters you get RM40, 100,000 liters it RM400, you get the picture right. How much petrol is sold in a day? So far the MSM has not spoken up on this small matter, but its high time they did, Yesterday The Star have a big picture on the RM2.704, but made no comment on this.
.
.
That just show that the petrol companies do not respect our PM and government at all. The Ministry of Consumer affairs had better do some thing on this. I suggest that we make them pay 10 cents per every liter they sell to a fund for public transport, from the day of the increase till the day they stop charging in extra 0.4 cent per liter.
.
.
Bus companies have up price, and taxis, even taxi that run on gas also as per reports on TV. That Bad! Profiteering i think it is call.
Enough said.

Crazy Idea, How to make money from the Petrol rebate!

A group of us were just lepaking, and "discussing" the Petrol Price increase over teh tarik at the mamak, when some one came up with this crazy idea.
Invest in old cars below 2kcc which many are below RM5K now (12 years +), just park it at home, do not use it, and pay the road tax, and just the minimum insurance, and claim the RM625 per year rebate. You will get better returns then the bank intreast, or speculating in the share market for your "capital" outlay!
LOL, ;-) any one have a old cheep car to sell?. Or are there conditions to the Rebate to prevent this thing from happening?
