Boracay beach in the Philippines is such a beautiful beach, really one of the nicest I have ever visited. Thankfully the locals know that the value of their tourism industry relies on them keeping it clean. They also have an active and thriving recycling infrastructure. Alot of the work is done by young kids who scour the beach for plastic bottles, tins and anything else of recyclable value. They play a valuable role in keeping Boracay clean.
Seems whoever is running Boracay knows a thing or two about preserving its natural beauty for future generations.



Boracay is ideal for water sports. The beach has soft white sand and the water is crystal clear and you can walk out a good way before it gets deep, the famous white beach is protected by a reef about 500m offshore, the resulting lagoon is a great place to swim. Shops offering water sport activities such as diving, kayaking, snorkling, fishing, sailing and para sailing, thrive along the beach. Thankfully the jet skis and powerboats are not allowed in the shallow lagoon and are kept out away from the beach so the noise does not disturb sunbathers on the beach.

and this is just a nice shot i got of a kid playing on a swing…

Kumi the drummer queen of Hong Kong has a new team of full time staff. Drum Jam goes corporate…
We recently shot some new material for them. Kumi is a great inspiring light, and her monthly free drum jams at the Fringe Club in Central are always very popular.
Kumi has been doing corporate team building sessions for a couple of years and they are very well received. Her client list reads a who’s who of HK companies. So next time you are thinking how to inspire and motivate your team to work as one… Think DRUM JAM…

yep i did it, some of my emails will now read “sent with iPhone… why did i wait so long”… and that is really true…
The best thing about the iPhone is the iPhone… so I wont say anything more on that… it just works… very well… ok enough…
A year ago when the iPhone launched in USA there were a few cracked versions floating around HK and these were the kind where someone had opened the back an sodered bits… nah I’ll wait… so i bought the Nokia E61i which is a DINOSAUR as compared to THE IPHONE as are all other phones I have seen recently… buy Apple stock it will be going back up! This is the product we have all been waiting for an all in one communications pod…
One of the reasons I wanted a ‘Smartphone’ was to have my email in my pocket… Important to our business… so the Nokia was ideal, but it required a 3G service package which when all was said and done, cost a bundle $$$…
The iPhone runs mostly on WiFi when you are at home or office and when out and about it runs on EDGE otherwise known in these here parts as GPRS (Group Packet Radio Signal?). Which PCCW does an unlimited plan for HK$128/month. So with that all said and done the iPhone is going to save me a bundle, we always like that
…
EDGE is, somewhat slower than the WiFi, but WiFi is everywhere in HK… the iPhone can be set to constantly scan for open networks… and for those who must have youTube at the beach PCCW does an unlimited WiFi plan for $488/month… not bad as this is basically mobile broadband, much faster than 3G…
(Note: if you are thinking of buying one be aware they are still “Cracked” and if you update the software with iTunes, your iPhone will lock up)…

The iconic sculpture by Robert Indiana is in Exchange Square along with 5 other Art Moderne pieces courtesy Opera Gallery and Hong Kong Land. They will be there til March 30th check it out…
