100days as CM of Penang.

PENANG: The price of being chief executive of the state is having no time for oneself. This is the experience of DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng since assuming the post of Chief Minister of Penang. For Lim, the job as he describes it is 24/7.
In jest, Lim said the biggest change was that now it was easier for him to call for a press conference. His media events are now well attended by all mainstream media compared to before the March 8 general election.
“As for myself, since March 8, I have stopped my drinking. I was never much of a heavy drinker, used to do it socially, but now I have stopped it completely. First of all it makes me tired and when you drink, the next morning it will be on your breath. I deal with many civil servants, even women, and I do not want them to get offended. It is not very pleasant,” he said. “So now, I make very dull and boring company.
“I do not even have time for football or golf now,” Lim said.
Even his family does not get to see much of him, Lim said. Although his wife and four children are in Penang, he hardly sees them as they are in bed when he leaves for the office and they are back in bed when he returns home.

FENG SHUI ENDORSEMENTby Master Khoo Buck ChewDistinguished International Geomancy MasterThe living science of Feng Shui has been around for thousands of years. During the ancient time, Emperors and royal households engaged the services of geomancy masters to select and determine the best possible location for palaces to provide and sustain the good fortune and prosperity of the royal court.The project site of ALILA development in the suburb of Tanjung Bungah, Penang embraces all the elements of good Feng Shui suitable for a luxurious built environment.The symbolic presence of the Green Dragon on the left and the White Tiger on the right is not only very prominent but appear to be matured and strong. The gentle hills behind the property symbolise the Black Turtle protecting the entire environment.The site is situated at an optimum elevation (neither too high nor too low) and is fronting the ocean. The Green Dragon and the White Tiger nestle gently at each side of the property. Their bodies curving graciously towards each other at the back of the property forming a shape like that of the throne of an emperor.Thoughtful planning and positioning of the buildings in ALILA further harness the benefits of the topographic and geodetic features of the terrain.This auspicious land form and lush greeneries will bring abundance of good fortune and great comfort to the dwellers for many succeeding generations.In short, the project site of ALILA befits the location of a PALACE.
