Free outstation calls with Yellow Pages

A representative from TM Info-Media introduced the Internet Yellow Pages to me yesterday.  Pretty interesting package costing RM 1125 per year.  With Executive Listing one gets:

1. 1st priority in search results
2. Up to 5 classifications and 35 keywords.
3. 1 online map
4. 1 business profile page
5. 10 pictures
6. 1 logo
7. website hyperlink
8. click to call (free call)
9. Short description (up to 200 characters)

What is interesting is now I can call outstation numbers free of charge if the companies which I wish to call are listed in the Yellow Pages.

Suffolk House ID Meeting

We had an infectious disease meeting at Suffolk House, Penang on 23rd August 2014.  Had the opportunity to drive on the new Penang Bridge for the first time.  Splendid views from the bridge because I could drive very slowly.  There were very few cars on the bridge.  

Suffolk House was built on a vast pepper estate owned by Captain Francis Light (1740-1794), the founder of the Prince of Wales Island (Penang).  He lived there with the woman he loved, Martina Rozells of mixed Portuguese and Siamese descent.  

Suffolk House was restored in 2007 and is the winner of an Award of Distinction in the UNESCO Asia Pacific Heritage Awards for Culture Heritage Conservation.  It is one of the finest Anglo-Indian mansion outside India.  

Food was good at the restaurant.

I could imagine Captain Francis Light enjoying the view from the balcony.
