Disclaimer and Self Accolade

I think it is appropriate for me to clearly mention a few things at this juncture.  Up to April 2015, I only had approximately 17,000 hits, while by December 2015, the readership doubled to 34,000 (not exact figures but round down).  This doubling effect could be due to the bumper supply and the exceptionally great tasting durian we had in mid-2015 (the last such unforgettable tasting durian was in 2008).

Since readers are from across the globe (even from US, Europe, across many parts of Asia, etc), I need to make some disclaimers.

Firstly, Durianlicious is a word which I coined when I decided to start this blog in May 2012.  The world is a combination of my thoughts, "durian is delicious", thus the combination into, DURIANLICIOUS!  I have not come across this word then, nor do I claim to be the originator of this word (in case there are others already using it officially before me).

Secondly, in all my post, I don't mention any durian business names as I am not affiliated to any durian business, be it whole fruit, dessert or even products, and do not want to influence readers with my opinion up to this point in time.  I think this is to be fair to businesses and readers, as my opinion can than be neutral.  I must be one of the few that talked about some durian without any mention of any particular sellers till now.

However, if one day, I am remunerated [be it in cash or in kind] to write, I will specifically mention it so that readers will know the particular post is influenced.  I do not foresee this day coming, unless my readership is so huge someday.

Thirdly, I do not own or endorse any businesses or products using this name Durianlicious.  Do not be tricked by any into believing this blog is theirs.  If anyone makes such claims, please let me know.  Dishonesty in claims proves dishonesty in business and I will encourage you to boycott them at all cost.  There are hundreds of stores, no need to patronised any dishonest ones.

(P/S : I'm unable to add any revenue generating links to my blog till date [have to mention too, since Singapore taxation body is looking into taxing revenue from online revenue streams])

I've started a Facebook just to copy and paste some of my post here into Facebook. However, it won't contain every post I've written here.
