    Andrew,

    If you want to lift the title “Orbituary: Dr Foo Lum Choon, 1917-2007″ and the picture from my blog, the least you could have done was to give acknowledgement to me for the article and not say “By Gilachess” in the item.

    Very sorry for that gross oversight. I used to take offense with reporters from the Malay Mail who used my pictures without acknowledging me. Here I am doing the same to you. I will remove the picture and just leave the text with a link to your blog.

Tell us what you're thinking...
