Project Petaling Street

The Official PPS 2nd Anniversary T-Shirts have arrived, and they look marvelous! :) Check out some pics here:

"Special" Award Shirts (magnified)
Shirts all packed and ready to go for mail orders
The rest for all of you picking up tomorrow night!

Alright, the following are the payment details: (click to view)

There are 3 methods of payment:

1. Cash on Delivery during the PPS Birthday Bash: RM29 (limited time price, regular price RM35)

2. M2U or Cash Deposit at the ATM. Maybank account # 114496006331, AIZUDDIN DANIAN BIN IZHAM CHEONG (RM29 + RM7 for shipping/handling = RM36). If you're paying via Cash Deposit at the ATM, you will have to deposit RM40 (because the machine doesn't accept RM1 or RM5) -- i will mail the RM4 change to you with your shirt).

Make a record (time and date) of when you deposited/transfered the money, also the amount paid and email me (pps (@) petalingstreet.org). Better yet, if you know how to take a screenshot of the transfer confirmation page from M2U, send that over too. If you deposit at the ATM, you can either scan or take a photo of the payment slip and email that to me, would be greatly appreciated. This will be valuable so that i don't get things mixed up.

3. Cheque or Postal Money Order. Make payable to AIZUDDIN DANIAN BIN IZHAM CHEONG (RM29 + RM7 for shipping/handling = RM36) -- send the cheque/MO/PMO to this address:

Aizuddin Danian
Suite #203 MBE Desa Sri Hartamas,
No. 30 Ground Floor Jalan 25/70A,
Desa Sri Hartamas 50480 Kuala Lumpur, MALAYSIA

* For all those who didn't make the deadline for orders, i still have some shirts extra -- you can buy these for RM29 at the PPS Birthday Bash (limited sizes).
** For those who want the shirt, but can't make it tomorrow, or if shirts run out, i will be making another batch. Send me an email at pps (@) petalingstreet.org to sign up for those -- expected delivery in 2-3 weeks. Also, i will take orders for this next batch tomorrow. Price RM35.

Alright, that should cover it! Thanks to everyone who ordered for supporting PPS! The proceeds from the shirts sale will go to keeping PPS alive for another year! Muah!!

Received this email from The Star today:

"Dear Aizuddin and gang,

Hi! I'm Shom Teoh, from In.Tech of The Star. :)

I've been assigned by my editor to cover this Thursday's PSS 2nd Anniversary Birthday Bash with a camera man.

Could I have the privilege of interviewing some of you guys during this event?

I'd really appreciate it too if you could help me get hold of the winners of the awards on the night itself for some Q&A."

Woohoo! The Press is coming! Lets put on a good show, show them some real blogger-style hospitality.

**EXTREMELY URGENT** The PPS Birthday Buffet has been SCRAPPED. Everyone is on ala carte -- therefore, Charlie's Place desperately needs everyone to pre-order. We've got more than 80 people registered to come, so if the food (ingredients) isn't prepared beforehand, everyone will have to wait a long time for the food to arrive!

So if you're planning to have a meal during the bash, pls review this page and email Sharizal our PPS2 F&B Manager!

PPS was mentioned prominently in The Star today -- kudos to all PPSers for your hardwork, loyalty and dedication -- you have made it what it is today: a one-stop shop for Malaysian blogs; truly the Petaling Street of Malaysian blogs!

Read The Star article here, and our bloggers' reactions here, here and here.

Damn, the voting booth has only been open a few days, more than 200 votes cast, and a whole lot of CHEATERS trying to beat the system. Come on -- don't assume i'm not paying careful attention. Only votes from PPS members with a valid BLOG will be counted. Some bloggers have tried voting multiple times, using different names and/or dummy blogs. Some voters don't even have blogs, much less are active members of the PPS community. Play fair, ok? :) Its just an award for gawd's sake! Didn't know Malaysians (and some phantom SINGAPOREAN voters -- yes, i tracked down your IPs/blogs) are so KIASU.

UPDATE: 300 votes and counting. And still more CHEATERS!!! *&%#$%! This better stop otherwise i'm going to start publishing email addys and names!!!
