Since 'the geek shall inherit the earth', this geek is just waiting for his day to rule the world. In the meantime, he is a young Padawan for CNET Asia whilst toying with a myriad of fun stuff disguised as work and pretending to advise companies on tech business and new media strategies. His playmates range from startups, (un)Fortune 500s, to government organisations. And JUST in case you were wondering, this blog is NOT about to make this geek a politician like his Malaysian CNET counterpart.

In memory of Lo Hwei Yen

Random, Social Media, Thoughts, World, news

Inspired by my fellow CNET Blogger Michael’s post, I did a check on friendster and was shocked to see how closely I was related to the poor Singaporean Lo Hwei Yen who was brutally murdered in Mumbai. This is what my friendster showed up :

I was supposed to be in Mumbai anytime around this period and was just there at the Taj Hotel in Jan of this year. As if the reality of the whole terror was not close enough, this whole friendster discovery just made everything that much closer.

She had a wonderful life and so much ahead of her and it’s all gone now because of some stupid selfish morons.

Thus is the frailty of life in this uncertain world in which we live today.

You’ll always live on the internet and in our hearts, Hwei Yen.
