Vote for Jackie!

Yes... she's the only Malaysian to be short-listed for the Best Job in the World. So what is the Best Job in the World? Pretty much being the Caretaker of the Islands of the Great Barrier Reef. Yes, white sandy beaches, exploring the islands of the Great Barrier Reef- below and above water and then finding ingenious ways of promoting it via blogging, videos and photos. And if that doesn't sound like paradise you get generously paid for it!

So this is Jackie Miao, from Sabah who from thousands of video applicants for the job is in the top 50! Huzzah!

How the competition goes is that there will be 11 in the finals, 10 selected by the Queensland tourism board and 1 from the 50 based on how many on-line vote she/ he gets.

We love plucky Malaysians who are gung ho and eats sago worms live on camera for her audition vid. So folks she's a foodie! And we believe that foodies should go places. They should start their own countries, have their own flag, be able to swim in the sun and sit on the beach and eat fresh seafood all the time. They should basically rule the world-lah. So here's a shout out for all you Malaysians out there, foodie or otherwise, young, old, big and small, vote for our Sabah lass and lets get her on that island!

You can see Jackie's video and vote for her at http://www.islandreefjob.com/jackie/

Sorry to hear that she has passed on. But her food still lives on. The patin and ulam daun gajus with sambal is still gud.
