"G'day mate, I am an Aussie already that's why I am staiying heayre" (think of Aussie accent). There are lots of good asian players here who call Australia home notably from Malaysia, Indonesia, Indo-China and England. Surprising, players from China "tak boleh", so it must be their State System which produced players like Lin Dan. Currently, Aussie Champ is Jeff Tho and the Ladies champ is also asian. In Oz, there are 870,000 (3%) people of Chinese origin out of a total pop of 26M.

hi jason...

i love your Wang Yi Han video...
I'm a big fans of her...
do u have Wang Yi Han video in singapore?

thanks for your video, i really love it..

Jason,

Yes, I migrated to Oz many years ago after passing my ACCA in England and also CPA here. I was Terengganu school boy champ in badminton too, singles and doubles. Monash Closed Champ in 1992. You are right H1N1 is on the rise here and so far 5 patients have gone into ICU care. But then again, even before this, (normal) flu killed at least a dozen people every year in winter.

To Kim : Wow your badminton resume is sweet eh... ^^ Hard to follow! Must be a good player. I guess you must pawn everybody in Australia! ha ha... So are you a PR in australia or citizen?

hey Jason, have you recorded any of hwang hye youn's videos? Especially the matches she just lost in SG's aviva opens?

In Lygon Street, Yes.II Dolce Freddo on Lygon was awarded for their winning gelato at the international gelato fair at Longarone, Italy in 2000. All gelato is made fresh daily.

Jason,

The badminton courts in Melbourne are at Monash Uni, Albert Park (F1 Grand Prix place), Central (in Donvale) where I play. On top of that, thee are lots of others in school halls and community centres. I bet you like food in Melbourne. Lat and Little Malaysia are good for Malaysian food and lots of Hong Kong eateries too.

To Kim : No doubt i love food in Melbourne. I love the gelato there. Ill Dolce Fredo. Know where is it? ^^

so are u staying here in spore to watch the aviva open??

JASON

Melbourne also can. With Air Asia now airfare is si-peck-pe, even kachang putih man can afford. Have a good time in Sg, SS Sg open is next week, may be you stay back and watch it?

To Kim : I didn't know you were from Melbourne. I was there last year for my buddy's convocation at the Melbourne University. My friend graduated as a doctor.

He is in Singapore now and i am in Singapore visiting him... lolz...
