Moving On. Life After the Petrol Blog.

I'm giving up on PetrolMalaysia.com.

So you may have visited PetrolMalaysia.com. It's been my place to ponder and pontificate about the petrol industry. I have written more than 100 posts on that blog, and it's had more than 200,000 views. 29 followers. 

In contrast, this blog has 400 posts and less than 3,000 views. I can only surmise that my personal writings were never interesting. It does not matter. I write for myself. One day I will compile all my writings and compile it into an EPUB book. And then I'll give it away for free.

I'm willing to give away the PetrolMalaysia blog. Just let me know if you're interested. And show me some samples of your writing. If you've been writing consistently about energy and petrol, you'll be very welcome to take over the blog. Domain name included.

I'm grateful for the chance to have run my blog, Petrol Malaysia, for a good number of years. 

Astora Jabat Becomes Full Time Blogger

Al-Islam editor, Astora Jabat, will quit his job end of this month and concentrate fully on his blog, tematajdid.com. Not bad for somebody aged 53 years of age! But then again, having been an editor for Al-Islam magazine since 2003, he may have quite a bit left unsaid when he left his job.

Most of you would be wondering what the term "tajdid" (تجديد) means. The short explanation is that it means renewal. Some further research might be helpful, of course, so you may like to click here for some related materials.

This could be a sign of the times. The voices of geriatrics online will certainly establish a more rational world wide web. Another plus point is that blogging just might be that elusive elixir of youth that could stave off Alzheimer's disease. But then again, a check with Google shows that various studies have heralded marijuana, chess, cannabinoids, and even skin patch vaccines as the prevention of Alzheimer's disease.
