Hi all,
Just a quick update that I am still alive.
Just came back to Singapore after staying roughly 1 week in Malaysia (Malacca and Kuala Lumpur).
Weather was quite rainy, so spent a lot of time inside.
On Sunday I will fly back to Kambodia and try to solve a small problem on my bike (it hesitates a bit when I fully open the throttle) before I get to Laos.
I try to get next update (Vietnam) online soon.
