Main editor, Quadir for Democracy & Civil sent some info bout his book launchin event which will take place in Seoul at the Korea Democracy Foundation this May 8th. Gaya cakap cam 'jom pi korea' huhu. However there's a note that he's surprised (unpleasant surprise ler kiranya nih) to see vol I and II differs where his name appeared 2nd rather than 1st in Volume II since he was the main editor of the whole project. Duh! Dia nih pelupo kot..he's the one who marked transposed with 2nd editor Lele in his marked proof and i tot he's being nice and fair. Shirley had to dig out ol email and pdf the marked proof back to every editor to ring a bell. itu pon nak jadik issue.
