I stumbled across Shoppingmum’s blog when I am claiming a new blog profile for my new blog. Seems like many bloggers are making money from PayPerPost. However, not much information I can gather when I visited her about page.

All I knew was: she is stay-at-home mom who loves shopping, blogging, she is raising up two kids, Justin and Isabelle. She is buddy to Lilian Chan and they always chat on MSN during the late night (according to Lilian Chan blog).

Amy or also known as Shoppingmum finally hit the USD10K mark at PayPerPost today. We are blog buddies and often we are on MSN in group chats through those long, lonely nights. When PayPerPost is most active, it is usually 3 am to 4 am here in Malaysia. First, congrats to Amy! She is a mom with two little kids and yet, she managed to do it. If you look at her spending and her niche blogs with designer goods, you will know that Amy didn’t do it for the money. It is more like a challenge for her and a few of us.

Congratualates to Amy and I can see it is a good sign showing more and more Malaysian bloggers who are making money online. I look forward to see more and more news from Malaysian bloggers doing well in blogosphere.

If you want to get paid for blogging like her, you can sign up PayPerPost now.

I like to write this post to express my feeling to this lovely country - Malaysia which will turn into 50^th years of independence on tomorrow.

After watching a ‘Video Response to Negarakuku‘ video which put up by a Malaysian in YouTube. It is good to share with all my readers. This video is a response to Namewee’s Negarakuku video, and to make all races to understand fact. If you don’t know what I am talking about, you can watch the video from Namewee.

Here is my comment for this video:

I am fully agree with the message brought out in this video. Fighting and talking bad to each other won’t solve the problems arise so far. There are certain level of misunderstanding between the different races in Malaysia, we shouldn’t blame each other and should sit down to solve this issue.

I am not someone who can influence the Malaysia political, economic and political issue, I felt it is good if some of the more influence can know my voice (and many other) as ordinary Malaysian. Here is my wishes for Malaysia’s 50^th Birthday:

• Be united and resolve misunderstanding between the races.
• Recognation for the hard works from the difference races by all races. This is a multi-racial community, everyone efforts should be recognised. Everyone should understand team works is better than lonely ranger.
• Continue maintain peace and war free
• Economic continue to growth strong.
• Truly freedom in religion belief.
• much much more …

I remembered someone ask this recently: Malaysia has achieved 50 years of indenpance, are you feel like celebrating Malaysia 50^th year Birthday in 31st August? If not, why?

How about what is your wishes for 50^th Birthday? Feel free to share your opinion here.

It is the first Malaysian Blogger event I attended after blog for one year plus. I spotted this event from Nuffnang blog when I was looking for Malaysian blogs that I can mention in my Wordpress Blogging Seminar. In fact, it is didn’t really something I prepared for it. Anyway, I told May Ong about this and she said she want to join the blogger meet.

I came in the afternoon after my church sunday service. The crowd is around 30-35 people who came. It doesn’t take longer time for me to get to know other bloggers as all of them are friendly. Some of them even don’t have blog yet and come to find out what’s it all about.

** This blog post is wrote exclusive for Handicapped Malaysians **

Recently I came across the news on handicapped / physical challenged blogger, Mohd Badruzamani from Alang, Galadriel & Mohd Sufian’s blog.

En. Mohd Badruzamani is seeking help from Malaysians. This donation is to support his medical fees. Below is the quote I got from his blog (in Malay Language).

Akibat tidur terlalu lama di atas katil hospital dan di dapat bergerak dalam tempoh yang lama kerana patah tulang belakang, kulit belakang saya melecet dan lebam yang sangat teruk. Jadi, doktor telah buang kesan lebam itu dan menyebabkan ‘luka besar’ (bedsore) yang sukar sembuh sehingga sekarang. Oleh kerana di bahagian luka itu, saya tidak merasa sakit (sebab patah tulang belakang / lumpuh), jadi tidaklah ‘meraung’ setiap hari. Namun kos untuk membeli seperti kapas, pampers, kain gauze, ubat / krim aloo vera dan sebagainya, memerlukan kos yang banyak setiap bulan.
