ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS A THAI TELCO
(sung to the tune of ‘All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth’)
All I want for Christmas
Is a Thai telco
A Thai telco
My own Thai telco!
Gee, if I could only
Own a Thai telco
Then IÂ’ll own
More of Southeast Asia
Here IÂ’m sian, I must tie my hands
All because of my dear hubby
But in Thailand, IÂ’ll wear the pants
ItÂ’ll be a coup, just you see!
All I want for Christmas
Is a Thai telco
A Thai telco
My own Thai telco!
Gee, if I could only
Own a Thai telco
Then IÂ’ll own

THE LITTLE HUMMER BOY
(Sung to the tune of ‘The Little Drummer Boy’)
So they served me (mai hum mai hum hum)
A plate of mee siam (mai hum mai hum hum)
Or laksa, did they say (mai hum mai hum hum)
WhatÂ’s the diff anyway (mai hum mai hum hum, hum mai hum hum, hum mai hum hum)
I hate hawker food (mai hum mai hum hum)
And these bums
I have no idea (mai hum mai hum hum)
What swill these peasants eat (mai hum mai hum hum)
Is that a seafood dish (mai hum mai hum hum)
I hope thereÂ’re no shellfish (mai hum mai hum hum, hum mai hum hum, hum mai hum hum)
Cockles go through me (mai hum mai hum hum)
Right through my bum
I hate to be a boor (mai hum mai hum hum)
But I must be sure (mai hum mai hum hum)
This mee siam has no hum (mai hum mai hum hum)
I neÂ’h ate it before (mai hum mai hum hum, hum mai hum hum, hum mai hum hum)
Why do they look at me (mai hum mai hum hum)
Like I am dumb? -

it's the garbarment we're talking about, so that goes without saying ...Originally posted by Wanda:Are they the lowest quote vendors? -
Actually, we don't always have to take the lowest quotation. But we will need to write up our justifications for management. Usually the common ones are:Originally posted by Fatum:it's the garbarment we're talking about, so that goes without saying ...
1. proven track record of vendor(e.g. we used them before, and this is for a critical project)
2. terms and conditions not explicitly mentioned in the fine print until we question the vendors in greater detail
3. vendor has zero experience in the service/expertise they are offering, too risky.
4. previous bad experience by other departments/ministries with the vendor
etc etc etc -
Any idea what the Deathly Hallows are? Post your thoughts here.

you know ... very public figures, like politicians, gangster leaders, great company bosses and all that, if you offend too many people, people will curse at you "pai si" (hard to die) in hokkien .... and truly .. if you notice ... chaps like these seldom have peaceful deaths ....
they'll linger for a long long time, till the organs start failing and the body gets wrecked with the pains of old age .... ..... -

Home cooked lunch.
Stirfried cabbage swimming in soysauce soup with prawns.
Curried squid rings with long beans
White rice.

i guess my section deals with a lot of vendors doing a lot of little jobs, so we do meet our share of terrible vendors...
i would say that a lot of businesses out there fail because the people they send out are totally unsuitable for their job.. that is, they have no idea what their company products are, what the limitations of their company is, what they can deliver, and are totally lost when it comes to the sales pitch...
you do NOT promise everything... then find yourself unable to deliver...
damn.. Scott Adams is again spot on.. i just described the Marketing Section in Dilbert... -
Some rumours have it that Dr M does the same thing too.Originally posted by the Bear:maybe he's being injected with some kind of crap that keeps him alive?

Anyway, I prefer to think it as the effect of having a Horcrux. He may well have murdered LHL's 1st wife and created a Horcrux in the process.

On another note, I was just made to swallowed a dosage of snake alcohol.
Its taste a bit like mint. Says to help relieve my pain. -
Could it be that most of the staff in these companies are temps/on contract and the high turnover ensures that the level of competency is at all times limited?Originally posted by the Bear:i guess my section deals with a lot of vendors doing a lot of little jobs, so we do meet our share of terrible vendors...
