Nearly half year is gone.. quick recap.

The year 2010 started with much expectations for things to get better esp. for the economics of the US and Europe. There are also hopes for less natural occurring environmental destructions, but we had one very serious man made disaster courtesy of BP at Gulf of Mexico.  Penang generally haven't had any incidents that made the headlines, except for some political related showmanship btw. the ruling opposition party with the incumbent ruling party which is now playing the opposition role in the state.
Apart from the very hot and humid weather we have been experiencing now which is very unusual, Penangites have been going about business as usual. ( Air Conditioners sellers probable getting more business as usual this year). Only thing that will probably happen in next few weeks is a loss of workers productivity due to the upcoming World Cup.
I hear that this year's durian is the best as just the right amount of rain arrived this year, so quick get some before the season ends next month.
Let's hope for more good news on the economy and political front for the rest of the year.
