We launched a travel tool, we went camping, we want to set you up on a date
Posted by Michael A Fredericks.
Evening, and all, and stuff.

It's been rather quiet around here, but that's because work has been a sod, and...yeah, work has been a sod.

Anyways, while you could hear a pin drop around these parts, a lot of noisy hammering and tinkering and pulling-of-hair sort of action have taken place, have been taking place and will probably take place again, which probably explains why my hair has decided to take a leaf from today's world economy book and is in steady recession.

In point form, what has happened, is happening, and is going to happen is, we:


We launched a travel tool

The most hair-loss inducing of the projects that we worked on this year has got to be the launch of the revamped AllMalaysia.info travel and info website, the ceremony of which was captured on video and summarised to a rather economical 1 minute 52 sec clip by our wonderfully supportive multimedia team:



I'm not sure if you can tell from the clip above but the new AllMalaysia.info now comes with a travel booking engine, and a spanking new programme called the Travel Ambassadors Programme, or TAP for short.

The AM Travel Tool is a nifty little feature which allows you to make bookings for flights, hotels, travel packages, transfers and car rentals on AllMalaysia.info, while TAP is our effort to get members of AMBP to play a more active role as a travel critic. At present, we're ironing out the travel package details with our sponsors/partners, so ambassadors, do keep your mobile phones all charged and ready; you'll soon get a call from us. If you don't, then just pretend we didn't call you. ;-)

And a note for all of you who applied - a big thank you, we've kept all your applications and may include more people in the programme in the near future, so your efforts could yet bear fruit. As for those whose mails did not reach us, I offer my sincerest apologies. We are aware of the nasty gremlins that have been playing havoc with our e-mail system (which was why you may have received numerous copies of the same mail), and are in the process of exterminating them. Just 1,347,221 more ugly critters to go.


We went camping

Thank goodness there were no gremlins on our little trip up north. The second trip of the Creating Sunway Memories with AMBP event, a 2D/1N excursion to the Sunway Lost World of Tambun was, for lack of a better word, brilliant.

There were cuts and bruises just about everywhere. Participants had to erect their own tents for the night. They were forced to walk ankle-deep through mud, or swim in bacteria-infested lakes. But at the end of the day everybody went home happy. One of the bloggers was heard saying that the trip was so much fun that he'd pay to come again. He said:

"The trip was so much fun, I'd pay to come again."

But seriously, the AMBP trip to Tambun was indeed a blast. After a dodgy start (late arrivals, stopped for driving over the speed limit etc), everything went as smooth as it could go, and it was largely thanks to the good folks over at Sunway Lost World of Tambun (who greeted us with an elaborate dance routine; see vid below), and the enthusiastic tour guide Mr. Tan of Mayflower (our sponsor for the very comfortable coach) that it worked out as well as it did.



The 31 adventurous souls certainly created some Sunway memories (one of which to do with tiger cubs; see vid below), and made some friends in the process.



But don't take my word for it, read theirs:

NOTE: I'll update this list as and when new postings appear


Oh, I almost forgot. We've got pictures from both the Creating Sunway Memories with AMBP trips, held in conjunction with the ongoing Sunway Memories photography contest. Just click on the relevant album on our Galleries page.


We're going to set you up on a date

This one is organised in the name of fun, fellowship and future possibilities. If you want to meet new people, make new friends or just want to have a fun day out, then you ought to check out Love Classifieds, a Red FM event organised for the singles community.

There's a number of seats allocated for AMBP members, so all you need to do is answer a simple question on the contest/event page and gather the courage to actually attend this speed dating bash which is going to take place on 25 Oct 2008 (Saturday), between 3 and 6pm, at Marché Restaurant, The Curve Damansara, Selangor.

Take a deep breath now...and click-click.
