Dear friends,

VANAKKAM     Below is a picture of Lord Ganesh

(the remover of obstacles) and the

Goddess Saraswati (Goddess of Learning)

         

I have been planning this for a very long time.  At long last
I have managed to put up a home page using this easy to use
tool.  It is still not in the range of what you might see in
other home pages as I am still in the learning process.  
Please bear with me if you do not find it interesting.  Feel
free to mail your comments and/or suggestions to me any time.

Allow me to introduce myself.

Name : Venkateswaran (VENKAT for short)
Education : Bachelor of Arts (English Literature) from
            University of Madras, India
            ICL Higher Diploma in Computer Studies from ICL UK
            LCCI Accounting Diploma

Citizen and currently resident in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Currently working for a regional software company as the
Senior Project Manager (mainly Human Resource Management Applications).

My hobbies are music (u guessed it), badminton, cricket,
photography, numerology, creative writing, reading and 
travelling.

I also like to make and meet new friends all over the world, be
they in Malaysia, India or any part of the world.  Thanks to
the proliferation of the Internet facilities worldwide, this
has been made possible for a fraction of the cost.  Just a
keypress away is friendship, business contacts, romance or
simply anything you wish.  E-mail has wider reach than snail
mail.  I hope all of you out there will agree with me.  If you
do feel the same way, please sign my guestbook and drop me
a line (I mean an e-mail).

Since the time I first put up this page, I have made lots of friends
all over the world - even from countries as far away as the USA,Brazil
and even Finland.  You can build up friendships and even long lasting
relationships from the Internet.  Don't just take my word for it, get
in there yourself.  If you find success, let me know.  If not, also let
me know. I know you surely will.
