Mr Mario Lum

Unless you were stalking the American couple stalking lions in Botswana 300 days in a year, you would have known that Mr Mario Lum has gone over to the other side. No, he has not joined UMNO ala Ezam. He is now in the happy hunting ground. God bless his soul.

His company has been in existence for so long that nobody knows when he started. The only company I know longer than his was Typewriter and General Agency which started before the World War. The 1st World War, that is. Riomark has extremely strong connections with the local banks specialising in encoding stuff, the business that contributed to his wealth of which is evident in his houses and the lavish wedding reception and party for his son Allan. Heresay, as I could not then attend. Allan now has taken over the company.

You thought Amy Teoh was here, right? Of course. Since leaving Canon, Amy has been loyally contributing in Riomark and is currently still. She has quite some photos with me. Check her out in www.photobucket.com/canonmalaysians. Allan, I have no photos of him yet.

You thought Mr Mario Lum was never with Canon, right? Of course. I have taken an exception here as he has been an exclusive Canon dealer for so many years that he can only be considered as part of the family. Period. Go ask Liew Sip Chon if you do not believe me. Part of his picture collection can also be found in the same URL.

For two whole weeks after his emigration to the other side, I could still hear him talking continually. This guy talked so much that you can't help but miss his presence.

Ok, so you asked why Mr Mario Lum, and not just Mario like all the rest of us on a first name basis. Remember, you are not there yet.

Bye Mr Mario Lum. I miss you.


Here I give you Jessica Alba without being distracted by her body. The Stare.
