The Chinaman

Earlier this week, I met with this local chinese businessman. He owns several businesses from palm oil to tradeshows booths supply. A few years back, a friend of mine helped him setup his own domain plus website but now they’re all gone because he didn’t pay the annual web hosting fee.

Why didn’t he pay? Well not because he forgot or anything, he just didn’t want to. That was why he met me. He asked me if it’s possible to setup a domain name plus website, with a one-off payment. That is, he will NEVER have to pay again.

But I was shocked when I found out how stingy and ungenerous this guy is.
