Thailand's king Bhumibol Abdulyadej

I would like to extend my deep condolences to all people of Thailand for the lost of  the Thailand's king Bhumibol Abdulyadej at the age of 88.

According to the palace, the king died peacefully at 3.53 pm local time at Bangkok's Siriraj Hospital.  The king had been ill for years, suffering from kidney failure.

I will wear my outfit in yellow with pink  today to honour  this sad times. The yellow is believed the colour of the king, while the pink is believed as a sign of restoring health.

The king will always be loved by the people of Thailand and remembered by all people around the world. I personally be one with the royal family,  the Government of Thailand and the nation during the period of this deep mourning.

I am deeply saddened by the loss that the people of Thailand have encountered. May my condolences bring you comfort and may my prayers ease the pain of this loss.

My heart are with the people of Thailand in every way.  May you rest in peace in the hands of GOD.Thailand is my friend. Again I am with you all during the period of deep mourning.

I Love Malaysia

Hello everyoneToday 

I would like to tell you a little story about my personal experiences during visiting Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, last 16-17 of November 2009.  It was quite long time ago, but I felt just like yesterday.  The program I followed called Youth Engagement Summit (YES) held at Putrajaya International Convention Center  (PICC).  The program also supported by the one of the best air lines of the world , AIR ASIA headed by Datuk Seri Tony Fernandes


I was so luck that I was chosen among hundred participants who won the online contest conducted by the organizer of the YES meeting.  Everyone who won the online contest will be awarded small scholarship to attend the meeting of YES in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.   The scholarship covered return ticket with KLM or AIR ASIA , some pocket money , and accommodation.  Wow I am feeling exciting to know the fact that my application on the test was successful.

I was pleased that I finally met some of the world class native speakers during the summit such as Sir Bob Geldof , DR. Mamphela Ramphele, Nando Parrado, Randi Zuckerberg, Biz Stone, Garry Kasparov, Lorraine Hahn, Narain Karthikeyan, and finally Datuk Seri Tony Fernandes From Air Asia. During the summit, the organizer of the summit changed little schedule.  Mr Amitab Bachan can not attend as speaker during the summit and replaced with Donald Trump, a rich man founder of Trump Organisation.

I never take photo with Formula 1. Wowwww. I got it when I was in KL, Malaysia

Its me Asep Haryono.

Very Exciting MomentsDuring the summit, I and also the other 75 delegates from Indonesia stayed in Hotel Malaya located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur's Chinatown. I and the other Indonesian friends took many ways of exploring the city of Kuala Lumpur such as Petronas Twin Towers. I used to see this amazing tower from websites online, but I never imagine that I finally able to experience and standing in front of the Twin Towers by myself.

Unfortunately I have not had much time to explore Kuala Lumpur further more due to I must return to Indonesia real soon after the summit was over.  I have planned to visit Kuala Lumpur again by the end of this December 2014 along with my wife with me. I need more information about local tour package of the Kuala Lumpur and the cheapest accommodation as well.  I hope any Malaysian blogger can give me some suggestions, and help.  I will always appreciate it (Asep Haryono)
