A WEEK before, I joined hundreds of runners to take to the streets of DOWNTOWN KL  as they call it to run for PIKOM Charity Run 2011 – a run organized by PIKOM – whatever it is- to raise fund for the National Cancer Society Malaysia.The event had become even more meaningful when less than a week earlier the world lost one of its most precious inhabitants in decades when Steve Jobs succumbed to pancreatic cancer – the same type of cancer that actually killed my father 5 years ago.
