This is a report live from Bangkok Suphanburi Province of Thailand. Hahaha.. Actually I'm in Thailand right now for the 1st ASIAN Martial Arts Games 2009. First time bro.. I mean the games la.. 2 hours away from Bangkok airport. We staying in Songphanburi Hotel. A lot of familiar faces when reaching the the hotel. Most of the people all were surprised to see the Big Man there. Most of them heard the news that he retired. I guess they were wrong. The hotel is not bad actually. Free Internet access, security all over, good rooms and friendly people. The best part is that I get a room all to myself.

The opening of the Pencak Silat Competition was today and the opening was ok... not that bad. The hall was air-conditioned so it's not that hot. The first game for our team was today. Dinni had to go against Vietnam. Yes Vietnam... you heard me.. It was a hell ride for her before her game. She had already had her own fight with her weight. She had to do front drops, back drops, figure 8, scissors and countless four attacks but she actually got her weight down to her class. the determination that she has is superb. Tears and sweat was fully involve. Anyway she tried her best in the match but I guess lack of energy got in the way. The games are all in the morning so have some free time in the afternoon. Eka and Shakir is having high fever but they being treated. Shakir had to postponed his game today to tomorrow. It's John and Shakir's turn tomorrow. I hope that they will perform to their maximum.

Good Luck! Good Luck! Good Luck!
