Why my kids still suck with English?

It's confirmed by their teachers in the parent teacher meeting today. This is not good. My wife speak good English, and I speak great English. The teachers are surprised that our kids speak English so bad when they speak to us, as we can speak really2 well.

The kids, for some reason like to speak Malay all the time. When they're playing, singing, quarrelling, etc etc.

They go to a school where there's no one else speak Malay. Their friends can be Aussies, Arabs, Indians, Chinese, Maoris but none of them speak Malay.

I'm gonna force a full English only or mostly English. I'm gonna rent movies in DVD and ask them to open the English subtitles.

Great Double Decker Caravan

Välkommen till Skandinaviens ledande husvagnstillverkare - KABE Husvagnar AB Wow expensive at Euro 105,000. The lower deck features a living room, kitchen and breakfast dinette, plus a bedroom with single beds. Hmm This is complete place to bring along on the road. The upper deck has a 'lounge' with an L-shaped sofa and a cocktail cabinet. A door from the lounge leads out onto the roof of the front section, which serves as a sunbathing terrace. Perfect portable home I would say. http://www.kabe.se/tower/

The awesome Bugatti Veyron.

I am watching this super duper super car Bugatti Veyron here. I got the link from this top documentary film website, http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/bugatti-veyron-super-car/ . Really cool. More than 400km/h in 2.5 seconds and 2.2 seconds to make it stop to a complete stop. Wow wow wow. On the other side Proton created a working electric vehicle already and sent it to JPM for trying it out. Read details here . When can we buy it? I hope it can get >20 km/l as Honda Insights or Toyota Prius. But I saw a charging station needed. I would prefer the EV like Honda Insights or Toyota Prius, with petrol and battery. There’s no need for a charging battery station. Did Proton make a wrong move? What if there’s no more juice in the car and there’s no charging station around? Anyway, enough for today. Later…

NGV Community Forum - to save on petrol

NGV Community Forum There's a section for newbies & advanced users. Our Friend Hadzley have been using it for 1 month ++, and he was extremely satisfied with the mileage. However there's a problem with pick-up. He use 1.6 Ford, and he hardly overtake a lorry on teh highway. But as you know lorry in Malaysia has the same speed limit like any othe rvehicles, and they drive pretty fast too. You can check out the forum & learn more. I'm thinking of adding NGV to my old (but still beautiful..ehem) Saga 1.5. He only need RM4 from Melaka to UPM. it's a pretty darn good deal. However the initial cost is RM3000 new & RM1500 used. So have to theink abt the ROI.
