The above short video clip was taken by me during Thomas Cup on 16 May 2010 in Kuala Lumpur. We were late. And by the time we arrive half an hour later, we heard that the match between Lee Chong Wei and Lin Dan had ended with the victor being Lin Dan. The ex-number one badminton player, Lee Chong Wei had beaten Lin Dan, one of the best badminton players in the world, a few times, but very rare compared to the number of times Lin Dan had beaten Lee Chong Wei. Well, we missed the highlight of the show in the first round match between the world's 2 top best badminton players.
Due to nose cancer, Lee Chong Wei had no choice but to resign, because health is more important than wealth. Nicol David wisely resigned after peaking at the top of her career, being the world number 1 in squash for 12 long years, If I am not wrong, and for being the longest holder of the title of being Number 1 in Women's Squash with an unbeaten track record.
With the pressure to excel and win the game, it is no wonder that the game ended quickly for Chong Wei. The rowdy spectators were giving added pressure to Chong Wei, instead of helping him, if you watch the video above right to the end and see how they yelled out to support fellow Malaysian players.

2016 Christmas Performance on Superstar Libra
Above is a removed short video taken by me while on board Genting's SuperStar Libra cruise that no longer berth here in Penang's Swettenham Pier. It used to be a twice weekly cruise from Penang to the International High Seas for the gamblers to play their favorite games, whatever they are, and try their lady luck at winning something, hopefully. Those were the days of leisure and fun, while working hard in a home office. Well, as you can see from the video, it was near Christmas way back in 2016 and we were lucky to get a chance at getting on board this short cruise for a night. The performance was about 16 seconds, so I appreciate if you watch to the end on this lively song and dance. Now as I look back at my old videos, I can reminiscence the good times I had with my spouse and best friend. I hope my future videos will entertain with more songs, performances, and such. In the meantime, Enjoy the show!
