DEEPAVALI CELEBRATIONS

Dear all,

Yes, I know it has been a long time since I've updated.

And no, I'm not dead. I've been infected by a dangerous disease that terrorizes mankind even till today, it is known as, PROCASTRINATION!!

According to Wikipedia,

Procastrination is the deferment of actions or tasks to a later time. Psychologists often site this human behaviour as a mechanism for coping with the anxiety associated with starting or completing any task or decision.

Anyway, one of Malaysia's major celebration, the "HARI DEEPAVALI" falls on 17 October 2009, which is on a Saturday.
I know most who do not work on the Saturday mourns the loss a holiday but no matter, the celebration still go wild on the weekends. At 12.00am Friday night, the fireworks was released non-stop for several hours. Well, I know I will lose my beauty sleep so why don't I join in to the celebrations as well by hanging out in my porch and wishing my neighbours a Happy Deepavali.

Just for your information, Deepavali is commonly known as the Festival of Lights, the celebration of Deepavali (or Diwali) marks the triumph of good over evil, the victory of light over dark.

For Malaysians and Singaporeans, 'Open houses' are held where Hindus welcome fellow family and friends of different races and religions to their house for a scrumptious meal. This is a practice unique to us and shows the goodwill and friendly ties practised by all during any festive occasion.
As such, Mr. Arjan held an open house on 17 October 2009 at his house in Singapore.

Everyone from Labquip Group was invited along with their spouses, partners and family.

Here are some pictures of what they did on that day,

Lastly, we would like to wish a Happy Belated Deepavali to everyone.

Lots of love from everyone from LABQUIP.

Buka Puasa at Tropicana Golf & Country Club

Tropicana Golf & Country Club, exclusive, secure and all-inclusive. Located in the prime suburb of Petaling Jaya, this lush green golf course is indeed a wonderful sight for sore eyes especially for those who have busy lifestyle.

Talk a walk inside the airy and spacious interior of the Clubhouse and one is immediately impressed by the two grand staircases sweeping down in a graceful arch from opposing sides.

Stained glass panels and a three-tiered, antique chandelier which hangs from the dome at the centre of the ceiling add atmosphere to the Clubhouse interior. Italian granite flooring and lush, green flora makes up the rest of the wing, giving it the luxurious feel of tropical colonial properties of old, complete with a tranquil Spanish courtyard.

On the 28th of August, an auspicious date to some people, Labquip had decided to organise a Buka Puasa Dinner for the Muslims staff while non-Muslims are also able to enjoy a scrumptious buffet at Tropicana Golf & Country Club.

Faizah: Ms. Tee, makanlah, sedap tau.

Ms. Tee: Yakah, mmmm sedap juga ya.

There were so many variety of food that some we never even seen before. And thus, we stuffed ourselves silly.

Makan, makan, makan, makan, minum, makan, makan, makan, makan.

Rita: Senyum, ada orang nak ambil gambar ni...

Yani: Tengah makan la.....

Haikal: Apa khabar, Haikal staff baru Labquip!!

This cute kid is actually our new staff.

Seriously!!

Really!!

....................

Anyway, we would like to wish all Muslims, Selamat Berpuasa and Berbuka Puasa from all of us at Labquip.Top from left: Saad, Mahendran, Mazwan, Muraly
