McDonald's and KFC outlets are not closing down

The way some people perceived the McDonald's and KFC are going to close down forever in Malaysia as soon as news broke out the corporation are selling franchise rights. In fact, we will be seeing our beloved fast food outlets closing down gradually due to local investor pulling out their investment. The fast food chain is suffering huge competition.


Instead of making a headline of laying off workers or downsizing, the corporation are selling shares in order to invite more talented shareholders and rising fund for further expansion plans.


These are the restaurants, corporation behind McDonalds and KFC should learn from them. The only thing McDonald's and KFC does the best is free gifts for kids. But, they limited only happy meal get free gift which totally discriminate older person eligible to get toy.



1. TEXAS CHICKEN

The increasing demand for fast food is great opportunity for Texas Chicken to rise. In my opinion, the Texas Chicken brand is much resounding in the western countries. Texas Chicken coleslaw is much more delicious.







2. WENDY'S

Wendy's promotes healthier burger. If you want a burger that actually naturally decompose faster, come to Wendy's. There was an oldest McDonald's outlet in Penang has been replaced by Wendy's . Who knows after all it was the same owner who opened the oldest McDonald's outlet at Pulau Pinang right ?




3. RAMLI BURGER

Burger topped with maggi seasoning and egg prepared at home. Besides, one could opt eating at any burger stall using Ramli chicken meat.





4. SALMON SUSHI 

If you are a great observer, you would notice there are always customers flocking in Japanese restaurants at weekend despite lavish menu. The rising trend of Japanese foods in Malaysia is simply cant be ignored.

You might see it as an irrelevant comparison but both Sushi and burger were not Malaysian foods right ? Besides, you could put it this way comparing Salmon Sushi and Fillet o Fish.






5 MAMAK


Topped with some side dishes such as lady finger and omelette and curry sauce. Mamak curry flavored chicken definitely attractive.

Webe self proclaimed RM79.00 is not the final price for everyone

Webenow RM199.00 without deductions

Like everybody else over excited launching of Webe to the public usage. Never win anything from Webe promotions a little bit disappointed due to numbers of players are skillful than me. Not gonna elaborate anymore indulging in the past.


It was not that bad. the first bill came in and stated "I owe Webe RM106,00 instead of RM79". But why I did not goes all-out anger ?. I believe because Webe has done some pretty good things in my life. Author has been using Webe since Oct 5.


Calling home so often never felt this better. Hey, I got unlimited calls and it stated in my bill goes like "everytime you call a local telephone like your parent house, it will be under Webe bill". It literally every time I call home, Webe gonna cover it. I know everyone would like Wechat and Whatsapp their parent but, not all parents are using smartphone.


I not asking everyone should be grateful Webe is not charge us RM200.00 per month. In fact, RM200 the real price everyone should pay for using Webe service.  Where can one possibly find a better deal than this ?


Refer to the above image, from oct 5 - oct 31 prorated RM173.00 from the final price RM199.00. As for the November, author is utilizing Webe service for the whole month as stated there RM199.00.


I will make a simple calculation on my Webe bill with all the eligible deductions. Before that,  I would have owe Webe RM372.00 without deductions. I will be devastated without the deductions.


These are the tricky parts. it stated in my bill that the deductions for RM120.00 only occurred in the month of November. Besides, the Webe certified phone deduction RM52.00 only applicable on the month of October.



After all the deductions. My bill goes down to RM200. Well, do not forget to add in the 6% GST for two months as much as RM12.00


My bill supposed to be RM200 but due to the first payment of RM106  to obtain the sim card is paid Deducting that be my November bill dubbed as of course as first Webe bill a total of RM106. The date to pay before Webe decided to cut my line is on November 22, 2016.





After all, I love Webe so much going through first month is indeed painful. Many users believe that they should pay RM106 + RM79 + RM12 GST. The total is RM197.00.( Inclusive of first registration fee and november bill monthly fee) 


After a few thoughts, I should have pay them RM91,00 (RM79.00+ 2months GST) instead of RM106.00. By the way, I left the viewer to decide.

What if I told You never ever worry about data running out from apps update 

Almost a month using service provided by Webe since it launched on 30 september 2016. The first Webe bill has not reach my billing address yet. Previously using Digi postpaid for mobile data.

32 apps updated using Webe

32 apps to update is date consuming. Count on games updates normally carrying 30MB per update. It so much better with Webe there is no more worry.


Proudly select "data charge may apply" at the Google Playstore setting. Because the charge was zero. Webe ain't gonna charge us a dime from downloads excessive data on updates.




At the early launch of Webe mobile service, behold the mobile data stability and speed. 480p is consider as high definition visual clip and I pretty sure never stream Youtube with the 480p setting. It reminds me using other mobile data service streaming Youtube on 360p due to worrying it might eat away big chunk of my data.


360p is perfect no lagging and detailed images but, 480p is absolutely astounding. To your surprise, the 3 minutes 480p video loads finish within 7 seconds on Youtube.

Pokemon Go and Webe

Unfair pricing for being non TM / Streamyx / Unifi users. As if you are not subscriber of any TM products such as streamyx and Unifi, you are not getting a special price. The total price using Webe Mobile Internet a month is more or less RM200.


Using a certified Webe phones you could get a discount as much as RM60. Another RM60 cut for being a TM subscriber either Unifi or Streamyx. An eligible of both pay merely RM79 more or less a month.


One thing I notice after being a Webe subscriber, I call home much often than before !

Pokemon Badges introduced 

Golden Badge

Unlike in the Pokemon series Badges are earned by winning a gym. In Pokemon GO, Badges are earned by catching Pokemon in the wild, hatch eggs and training on gym. Players could take the badges as achievement, mission or a Pokemon go quests.


The newest updates give a brand new purpose to Pokemon Go. The more Pokemon one catch, the more points one will get into to enable a catch bonus. The golden badge is the final one can get and it gives out +3 bonuses whenever one catch normal type Pokemon.


Nevertheless, it also display how many normal Pokemon player have catch.  





In the previous update, Pokemon player could never see the Pokemon types. Here is a Zubat in a new update showing a Pokemon type of supersonic and flying.

The Pokemon Go newest update is pretty straightforward.





Oh man ! I have been playing many months since August 6, 2016. These are my badges collection. It render me unbelievable because I thought I would have more than that.


17 Badges to unlock equivalent to roughly 3400 Pokemon. Minus the 5 completed badges, I still need to go catch 2400 Pokemon to catch estimated.





Dragon is hard to come by. Only met Dragonite once and I blow my chance to catch it.


There has been lots of comment to Niantic saying that to add quests/missions into Pokemon GO. This newest update surely make them feel like their comment is reached and appreciated.


Before the update, I just catch few pokemon such as Pidgey, Ratata, caterpie and Eevee for levels. But now,  I could catch Magnemite more often in order to complete mine electric type badge.

Well-lit Webe Lounge at Queenbay Mall, Penang

Check out Webe Lounge design and catch up with their latest mobile plans. There is no single color closely associate with Webe as if you are curious. One thing that surprise me most is the staff took me to a table for a quick inquiry when I said, " I come to take my Webe sim card ".

He calmly noted my intention. The entire conversation experience was described to be like when I was taking my school result with my parent by my side. It was totally formal !

I look around amazed with a strict officer. There were few smartphones on display and a few P1 devices here and there.

One thing I remember the most about webe except the words P1 and TM is surely the word "Community". Shortly afterwards, I came to this ticket machine and get my ticket. Something we always do when we were in hospital or bank.

As soon as I got my ticket. In a split seconds, my number was shown on the screen with the usual sound because there were only me left.

Retrieving Webe Sim card is required to have your national identification card and of course your fingerprint to access it. The process is easy of course one do not need to fill up any form but it got me into thinking that " Am I in the middle of withdrawing my money " ?

Then, they got all access into my not-so-fairy-good middle school result and the things I have done in the past. ( God knows what are the information in my ID card )  , I am convinced he may have my good looking photo in their computer now.

The friendly associate handed my Webe sim card after I pass all the necessary requirements.
