Astro have recently launched the first High Definition (HD) broadcast in Malaysia. Have you got yourself Astro B.yond HD yet? HD? Apa itu HD? “Hou Dim” in Cantonese ah? Haha… It’s High Definition la. You will be seeing this term everywhere when you go to look for LCD TV / Plasma TV. If you want a true HD experience please get yourself upgraded to Astor B.yond and you will not be regret, it’s crystal clear and you could see every single details on the screen! It’s true.

Talking about HD I still remember few years back when I was a promoter for Plasma and LCD TV (*yes, I work very hard even when I was young and do all all kind of part-time*), I keep mention to the prospect who wants to get new Plasma / LCD TV that Astro is going HD in few years so that they will actually get to the full use of the HD TV and true enough, I did not lie =p now, Astro is coming up with HD. Few years back it’s only HD and now all are talking about Full HD and LED TV, technology move really fast and if you do not keep up to it, you will be left behind. So you know what’s HD? Haha.

Few days back, Astro was having a bloggers night @ Modesto’s Desa Sri Hartamas where all the bloggers were invited to the event. When I reached Hartamas, only then I found out that Modesto’s shifted from the petrol station to next to the Bomba… hmm I think the previous place is nicer but the event actually held @ Rain Club next to it.

After registered ourselves then we need to write a new year resolution on the board… So I just written there “Yo! Yo! Yo!”, want to know why? Continue reading lo… =p

Hihi, My name is saimatkong…

Emcee of the night – Non (Deal or No Deal host)

5 LG HD LCD TV displaying Astro B.yond HD channels “ASTRO Supersport HD, HBO HD, National Geographic Channel HD, HISTORY HD and ESPN HD”

We were among the 1st 200 ppl in Malaysia to view the Astro HD TVC in HD format thru those 5 LG HD LCD TV display, the TVC really awesome and we requested to view it for the 2nd time and most importantly I appeared in HD too!

Check out how I appear in HD! Woots! Hehe… =p Yo! Yo! Yo! Now you know why I put that in the Astro Resolution Board.

Haha, feel I did badly in the Blogger segment where the selected bloggers get to share our new year resolutions and what we want / expect to see in HD.

Then it’s dinner time! Yes… damn hungry leh coz I was there since 7pm and have to tahan till almost 9pm leh, but luckily there’s some pizza serving before the event start. Thank you for being considerate about us! =)

The food was awesome! Yes, very good food I must say but not sure whether it’s due to my hungriness or not. You know la when you hungry what also nice one la… =p

While we were enjoying our food, there’s some life performance by live band or so called a group of musician.
