Rediffusion

Cable Radio anyone??
Do you believe there was once a time not too long ago we used to have radio service by cable that you have to pays a monthly fee like how we have satellite TV now....Yes it is a fact, I had a tough time trying to convince some of my younger friends that we used to have cable radio calls REDIFFUSION. Rediffusion operates two stations,one in chinese and the other in english language starting from 6am thru 12am.


The set up is something like the telephone services, you pays and initial RM36 then the technician will set up a cabled wooden speaker box about the size of 12" X 12" with a switch like our fan switch. When you turns left it is the Chinese programme, when you turns the knob right it is the English programme, the volume is also controlled by this switch, I thinks the monthly fees is about RM6, but I not not too sure...

Every mornings it serves as our alarm clock, broadcasting the national anthem loudly at exactly 6am every day without miss. So we never overslept, never late for school. So much information & entertainments coming from from this little wooden box, made in the United Kingdom (I thinks)

Back to the present, my friends says who would pays for radio services when you have so many free to air station. Why do people now pays for satellite TV? I asked. Well........ times are different and our needs are different.

I still remember Lee Tai Soh(not too sure how to spell his name), the one man story teller who can makes people sit next to the speaker for 30 minutes everyday listening to him telling stories. The way he narrate a ghost story will scare the sh.t out off my sister every times. He is like the Orson Welles of Malaysia. I always wonder what he looks like or what happens to him. How I miss listening to all his stories, be it mystery, ghost or even journey to the west. I couldn't find anything on this remarkable man on the web. Can anyone enlightens me??Another great personality from Rediffusion is none other than the Voice of Malaysia Mr. Patrick Teoh.

Well you might asks me what happens to Rediffusion?? They changed to RediFM and later to 9.88fm, yes they evolved to the most popular Chinese radio station in Malaysia..Do the DJ now knows or even heard of this Mr Lee Tai Soh....

Writing this brings me back to my wonderful childhood memories, life was so simple back then. to those young reader of this post, treasure your youth don't waste your precious times, try to enjoy a simple life....it will be gone before you can grasps it. let live with no regrets......

Vote Lady Gaga as the Queen of Pop

Since the demise of the "King Of Pop", Michael Jackon on June 25, 2009,the reign for the ruler of the pop kingdom is in void. After going thru the would be successors. I could only find one person that is worthy to be the new ruler of the Pop Kingdom. that person is none other than Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta or better known as Lady Gaga born 28 March 1986





I am not a die hard fan of her, I just started to notice her last year with poker face. If you look at her past credentials you will know that she will become much, much better in the future. She is not into this industry because of her look, reality show and etc...


She did it the old style, by her passion and love of the music. She climbed the ladder step by step.
She is successful not by accident. she is successful because she is truly gifted and she dare to be what she wanted to be. In my opinion she changed the way people look at the music industry. she, like the king of Pop fused the music, dance, fashion & opera into a single entity.it is more like an art form.so much joy to listen, to watch and even to discuss about. You never seems to get enough of her performances.


Everything she touches or do seem to turn into magic. My only hope for her the follow the footstep of the King of Pop to be more philanthropist towards her subject. With the great powers bestow to her, she can helps change the life of millions of under privileged people.you can understand her more on the wikipedia
