Yes, Patchay says Earth Hour this year was a huge success!!!

An environmental event first conceived in Sydney only in 2007 has gained worldwide applause this year when more than 4,000 cities across the globe had switched off their lights for one hour last Saturday.

This year, Patchay officially signed up for the campaign and did exactly that at 8.30pm Malaysian time.

Earth Hour has become something sooo widespread in Malaysia like a National Blackout Day that city landmarks in Kuala Lumpur and around the nation switched off lights in support of it.

Wow, what I realised was that nearly every kiasu home along my street had their lights switched off too. This is awesome!

At last I could see people, especially Malaysians, getting united to do something in common for climate change ...even though it lasted for only one hour lol.
