Merdeka Spirit at Mesiniaga

This is Mesiniaga office building. Mesiniaga is the local partner of IBM. In the Malay language, Mesiniaga = Mesin (Machine) + Niaga (Business). So it can be said it's the translated word formed through the combination of those 2 words, Business and Machine.

This building overlook the Subang Ria Lake. I snapped this photo during the
SJ Merdeka Fun Walk. The Mesiniaga building is also in the spirit of celebrating our nation's 51st Merdeka Day!

Interesting. As you see IBM stands for International Business Machines.
(Saying as a former IBMer)
So, that local parter took two aspect of IBM naming.

"Use your first smile, your first form of generosity, of love, of kindness—use it at home; start at home. And if there is something left over—if … your plate is just full of abundance of patience and goodness and smiles and joy, then by all means, you should go … and offer that to others. But we must begin at home." by Dr Robin Smith
