Indiblogger Meet: Launch of the ASUS Zenfone2

-
Soon after the Kose meet, the generous Indiblogger people surprised us with the biggest blogger meet in the history of Indimeets. It was the launch of the zenfone2 with 500 seats! Not only that, the venue was none other than the spectacular Kingdom Of Dreams!

The sad part? It was a Thursday afternoon. Thursdays mean hectic OPD in my hospital. Still I got myself registered nonetheless. After all I neither wanted to miss the awesome Zenfone launch nor the splendid Kingdom of Dream! Moreover the Indiblogger people announced that it was going to be a star studded affair with Saif Ali Khan, singer Aditi Singh Sharma and celebrity photograher Daboo Ratnani. I was in no mood to miss it. But till that very morning I did not know whether I would be able to make it or not.

Unfortunately it took the entire first half for me to wrap up my hospital chores. So I could reach the venue (which is very far) at around 3pm! I had missed all the performances and celebrity dose but thankfully I saw Saif Ali Khan again. There was a revision of the features of the amazing Zenfone2 and I fell in love with it instantly.

The best part about these meets are my blogger friends whom I love to meet. It is such a pleasant respite from my hectic hospital world. The meet was followed by a lovely high tea in the sprawling yard of the Nautanki Mahal. Even though I missed a major chunk of the meet, I loved this day to the core; as with every Indimeet!

Effect of COVID 19 on edible oil industry and Palm oil

  The Corona pandemic has caused a havoc on the global economy. Some countries have been more affected than others. I however would like to focus on the effect of the pandemic on the edible oil industry and Malaysian Palm oil especially. Last week I attended a webinar hosted by the  Malaysian Palm Oil Council with Dr Bhavna Shah, country representative of India/Sri Lanka as the speaker and what she said about the palm oil industry right now is really food for thought. How has COVID 19 affected the edible oil industry?  The pandemic caused shutting down of restaurants and catering businesses and hence a drastic reduction in the  import of edible oils. People have reduced eating outside to a very large extent and also takeaway orders have declined. This situation was particularly grave during the lockdown period. The production of cooking oil comes under Essential goods services but the production of containers isn't. Labours migrated back to their villages from the ci...

Celebs who I love following on TikTok

The world almost stood still the past two months. While everyone stayed at homes and worked from within, my job didn't permit so. Yes I am a frontline worker (a medical professional) who had to go to the hospital during the entire lockdown time. I was double stressed: Catching the infection myself as well as silently passing on to my two little kids or my elderly parents. I have been seeing and hearing people cursing this quarantined life but they don't understand it's a privilege to be able to stay within the safe confines of home and work and earn. The only respite in this period has been TikTok. Yes, I am now a total TikTok convert.  If there's anything that got a boost during this Corona pandemic, it has to be TikTok. This app has seen billions of downloads and users in the past couple of months. And why not? It's like a breath of fresh air. After I come back from the hospital and undergo a rigorous sanitation regime to ward off any kind ...

SCHIPHOL AIRPORT TO AMSTERDAM How to reach to the city center from Airport is always a big question while travelling. By far car/taxi is the easiest and most convenient form. But it’s costly, if you are travelling solo or as a couple. There is no harm to save few bugs but yes, comfort is always a priority. Public transport in Amsterdam is very convenient, fast and comfortable.   Shciphol is world’s 14 th largest airport situated 22 Km south of Amsterdam city center. It’s well connected to the city center and nearby places by bus train and taxi. By taxi : The maximum start price of taxi car is near about 2.83 euro, with travel rate of 2.08 euro per km and travel time cost 0.34 euro per minute. So expect a cost between 45 Euros to 60 Euros from shciphol airport to the city center, depending on your location. You can need taxi especially at late night, when the trams stop functioning. The taxi stand is located just outside of airport arrival...
