Nury Vittachi
If you’re fond of reading Reader’s Digest (Asia), you probably know Nury Vittachi. Or not. 
He’s the author of the Unbelievable! section of RD Asia. I think the column started last September 2008 (the time RD had its new look). 
Anyway, Nury Vittachi’s column is one of the things that I look forward to reading every month (ever since it started) when we get our copy of RD. His writing skill is to die for! Nyahahaha. Or is it just me? 
Really, when I read his articles, I can’t help but think, “Whoah, is this guy human?” 
Okay, stop the exaggeration. But kidding aside, he does write well. 
The way he chooses his words — just incredible! He doesn’t write in a formal or poetic style. Rather, he does it colloquially. 
But the one thing that epitomizes everything I like about his writings is his curious antics! 
There’s not a time when I read his writings that my mouth wouldn’t twitch and crack a smile! And at times, I would even laugh out loud! Shyet! Shame on me! Mahahahahahaha! 
That’s all, really. I just wanted to share something about one of my idols. Hekhekhek. 
Read his articles in RD if you want to know what I’m talking about. Or you could read The Curious Diary of Mr. Jam. It’s his blog. And it contains more insanity than you could ever imagine! 
By the way, his target are the Asians. He talks about them a lot. 
And his complete name is Nuryana Samjam Perera de Lacey Vittachi.

It’s obvious that you’re fangirling over him, Mikyu!
Hehe. I understand why though. He seems pretty interesting actually. Too bad i’m not that fond of reading RD!

I love reading Reader’s Digest so yeah I know him and his awesome section. He choses words that will make you think twice and get a dictionary but all in all, he ‘s simply amazing
I’ve visited his blog and all of his entries are interesting to read.

Dati nagbasa ako ng RD. But I didn’t saw his articles. Maybe it’s new palang :)) I want to read RD again. I love the facts and the stories there
I visited his blog. Cool.

Hindi na kasi ako nagbabasa ng RD bes pero twice yata. Yun nga lang hindi na nasundan. Tss. Sayang naman. Curious ako kung pano sya magsulat. Hehe. At ang ikli ng name nya ha. Ang hirap itype.

i bought the magazine for RM15 every month to buy this magazine only to read his writings! I stopped at March. Would anyone emailed Unbelievable secton from March 2009 to December 2009? My email address is seagate383@yahoo.com.

Guess what, you’ve got company.. Vittachi’s use of wit and humor is really impressive. his column, Unbelievable on RD Asia, never fails to amaze me. if only he could make a book compilation of all his UNBELIEVABLE article, i would surely be the first one to buy it on its release!
