1-month hiatus

november passed and i didn't post anything in that month. wow. anyway, was kind of busy with 2 trips (philippines and hong kong).

work - 1 colleague just left, another's leaving, 2 new ones have joined. there's probably going to be a slight change in office dynamics so let's see how that pans out. had 2 pretty good trips and hong kong was really rocking. our development there has been fantastic over the past few months and the people there are really kicking it up a few gears. very happy with what i saw and heard. also, managed to see more of hong kong this time when they brought me around. it's funny how differently you view hong kong as a tourist and then as a tourist with a local guide.

another fantastic piece of news is that as a region, the portfolio under my care is growing by leaps and bounds (almost twice that of last year). far be it for me to claim credit but it feels good to be part of this achievement.

and oh yeah, christmas is approaching since this is december with chinese new year not far behind. have many photos to add but i guess those can wait.
