Cerita Kedaikopi  # 21 :10th March,1999
 
 

Which is faster,the email or the plane?

It all depends where you are and which ISP you are using.

[This is what I overheard at a hotel coffeehouse while having breakafast with a business associate.Malaysians still do enjoy this luxuries even at this time of economic recession]

Malaysian:Good morning,Marks!I am really sorry about last night.How was your flight?
Aussie:G'Day mate!I am safe and sound.

Malaysian:I should have picked you at the airport last night.It seems that your email about your visit got lost and have not yet find its way to my mailbox.You know,I always pick you at the airport.
Aussie:It is ok.Next time,I send a back-up by fax;- and a registered letter-just to be doubly sure,eh.

Malaysian:Don't trouble yourself.All I need to do is CHANGE my ISP.This fu*king  TMNet  buat malu gua saja....
Aussie:What did you say?I did not understand the last sentence.

Malaysian:Well,you wouldnot want to know,mate!Let me call the waiter and have our favourite nasi lemak,ok?
Aussie:Yes,I love it-more sambal please.

[In Malaysia,the plane from Brisbane reached KL earlier than the email through TMNet:-((((((((((((((((((]

Note:So far,I am quite happy with my JARING account.
