Astro, Making My Life Richer,....... Yeah Right!!

Since the 15th November, Astro, as they advertised 'moved their channels into better neighborhood'. Ya, definitely high class neighborhood. Must be staying in mansions like Zakaria Derus's or something similar. And the company's motto is 'making my life richer'!!. My foot.

Now, I am paying almost RM108 every month to Astro. That is for taking the Movie package, Dynasty, Learning, Cartoons and Sports. After the 15th, when auntie no longer has access to the Hokkien period dramas at channel 333, and most importantly her access to Bloomsberg TV for her daily share price feed, we decided to change our subscription package.

Called up the hot-line, and change my subscription to only Dynasty, News, Sports and Gold..... the price 107.90, a bloody saving of RM0.10 AND I still need to pay a RM10.00 package downgrade fee. But worst still, I am getting less channel than I used to get.

What really makes me tulan is why I am paying for what I will never see. The basic family package cost a compulsory RM37.95, and out of 26 channels there, I have only frequently see 8 of them. I have never even spend more than 5 seconds on most of the other channels from this package.

For the sports package, I really don't need channel 814 and 815 ( Eurosport and Golf Channel).

The main reason why I installed Astro in the first place is the reception of all free TV channels has deteriorate to the point that we cant get any reception at all. Mmm, come to think of it, the reception becomes bad only after Astro came about, wonder any conspiracy theory there?

Last time already tulan, last time already pays to watch repeats, Not only movies but Astro's own advertisement. Those were repeated so frequently that the I can still hear the jingles. Then there's the disruptions caused by rain or thick clouds.

Now lagi tulan. Stupid Astro, stupid monopoly, and stupid me for not willing to buy pirated DVDs.
TULAN betul..............

BERSIH 10NOV2007

BERSIH 10 November 2007

2007 Bersih rally, Yellow Power

http://edition.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/asiapcf/11/10/malaysia.protests/index.html

Hell, if I have never spent so much time on the Internet, reading Screenshot or Malaysia-Today, I believe I would not have even know about it.

There’s hardly any thing on the newspaper. If there are, it s not even considered front page material. Only the government politicians are interviewed and all of them condemn the march. The march had been blame for making life difficult, spoiling the name of the country, even as bands of criminal, irresponsible criminals who are willing to endangered the life of their children. The national medias suggest that the march is a total failure.

11, 12 and 13th November, the days when I do not have access to the WWW, I don’t really heard anybody talk about the walk. Life goes on as usual. As if nothing happened. As if only a tiny section of the country really supported the walk.

For this I must congratulate the government. Their control over the mass medias are total.

A Malaysiakini writer once told me, I am not the in the typical demografic of Malaysiakini’s reader, ie those interested in social politics.

This means the younger generations don’t actually care. The Malay youth are concerned about Akademi Fantasia and South American Soap Operas. The Chinese educated are only interested to maintain their Chinese lifestyle here in Malaysia. The Indians struggles just to seek recognition that they are an important member of this country. PAS members seeking for an Islamic Nation. And etc. Every body have their own agenda.

Do you then think the youth of the country, not the Belia, those age 15-20 will be aware about the idea behind the walk. Most probably they would not. Even though Kennysia did give some exposure on this March, although in a very indirect and subtle way.

If such a walk is held in Penang, would I be there? Most probably yes, even though I will fell uncomfortable walking with PAS members. I have already accepted that PAS’s vision of this country will never be the same as mine.

But why now, are we running to the king? Remember when we deserted them during Dr. M’s time. Not that all the rulers really deserve our respect in the first place.

It is not that I do not support a clean and fair election. I am all for it. But changes can only be made when the masses cares. The masses don’t only mean those who had access to the WWW and have interest in the social politic issues of the country. The masses mean all the pak cik, makcik, and the younger generations as well.

And the question is, how do we reach them?

My Trip to Subang to catch Firefly (the airline)

It started to drizzle as soon as I am leaving my Head Office. That’s around 4.30pm, so early, must be able to catch my 8.00 pm flight on Firefly from Subang la. Go to the Taxi stand in front of my office. Starting to rain heavily now. Bloody hell, no taxi is willing to stop. I ve stand there for about one hour, getting drench, waiving my hand like I am trying to fly.

Shit, if no taxi wants to stop here, why you put a taxi stand in the first place. Decided maybe better to go to somewhere where there will be lots of taxi. Only KL Sentral comes to mind. By now, its already raining cats and dogs. But no choice, have to walk to the nearest LRT station. Getting really wet, carrying my luggage, and with a bad ankle (I sprained it badly the night before), walked almost 1 km to the nearest STAR.

When reach Masjid Jamek, and it is still raining, wanted to make a frantic dash to the Putra station. Shit, they moved the entrance. Resulting in me have to go all the way to the opposite direction. Its already 6 pm by then. Going down into the underground station, have to walk some more. Pity me la, my ankle hurt like hell already. But at least I am now out from the rain. As usual, during rush hour time, LRT is packed. Squeezed into the train. Don’t care already, late liau loh.

Reach KL Sentral, try to find the Taxi Terminal. Have to walk somemore. Saw a long queue outside already. In KL Sentral have to buy taxi coupon one, so go to the counter. Two notices had been put up “No Taxi Availabe, Have to wait for 15-45minutes”. The girl inside warned me that I might have to wait one hour. I ask her, if purchased, can I get refund if I don’t take taxi ah. Cannot. Now it is 6.15 already. Stupid Taxi, no wonder I never support their request for fare hike. If have to wait 1 hour, trip to Subang might take another 1 hour due to rush hour and rain somemore, I will miss my flight leh.

Saw a Airasia sales office there just now when on my way to the Taxi terminal. Ask whether still got flight to Penang or not later. Fully booked! Why so many people want to come Penang. No choice already, has to risk to Subang. Buy a taxi coupon. Queue there is around 10 people ahead of me. But rain is stopping. Time on my taxi coupon is 6.28pm. Luckily 5 minutes later my taxi arrived. One and half hour, got confident can make it.

Initially ride is smooth. Then when going into Federal Highway, bumper to bumper. I can only sit there looking at the Taxi’s clock as minutes passed by. By 7.30pm still trap in jam. Desperate already, still haven’t seen any signboard pointing to Subang Airport. Passed a toll. Worst still. Traffic langsung not moving. The taxi driver cursed Government for stupid planning. I also curse together in my heart. Pay toll to get stuck in traffic!! Marvelous.

7.40pm Take out my Firefly confirmation printout, want to see got phone number or not, want to try ask them to delay the flight. Try mah, nothing to loss. Suddenly realize my flight 8.50 who! At last, luck is on my side. After being in the jam till 7.55 traffic start to move.

Reach Subang Airport around 8.10. Cant recall whether I have been to Terminal 3 Subang. The place is practically deserted. But still got a row of taxis waiting. All shops inside are closed. Only saw three of four people hanging around. But have to walk somemore. My ankle still hurts. Go to check in counter, they issue me boarding pass. HAND WRITTEN one somemore. Only those boarding my flight are there. Around 20 of us. The plane is already there. Those on earlier flight is disembarking. The place is deserted. Toilet also cannot run down. I knowlah unfair to compare to KLIA but I saw cockroach leh!! (Most beautiful airport toilet still at Senai). Some lighthing also missing already. Saw another light aircraft and a private jet only.

Board the plane. Sitting near middle of the Fokker. When the place takes corner, the airplane’s body move. Stewardess definitely more cheerful than Airasia’s. Furthermore now the Firefly stewardess get to wear glamorous uniform, compared to only T-shirt and jeans when I flew with them for the first time. The old uniform makes them look like Indon maid only. Now got class a bit. Still the menu they have is still the photostat black and white one. Just like last time. But now the spelling correct for Teh already, last time it’s ‘THE’. The flight is ok, no complain.

Reach Penang 20 minutes earlier, but the long taxiing to the terminal resulted in we reaching inside terminal at 9.40pm

The things I do to save for my company. If I bought MAS, then no need to worry, no need to get wet, and can shopping for chocolate somemore. Next time I will think really hard to fly from Subang especially if I have to beat the rushhour.

Updates 16Nov07, somebody told me that its not the Federal Highway I am using. Federal Highway no need to pay toll. I thought Federal Highway because I saw a number of roadsigns stating Federal Highway. So the cab must used the other route which passes Eastin Hotel and Damansara Utama.

Whats In A Name?

Cashing on the glamour of our space flight participants..oops cosmonauts (or is it Angkasawans?), Mr Son-in Law announce that his boss, Mr Krismuddin, the Education Minister was inspired to set up 'Rocket Club' in schools following the successful mission of the first Malaysian Angkasawan.

Rocket Club, cooooooooooooooooooooooool. Just like this ah?


Btw, what the hell are the two Angkasawan doing at the UMNO General Assembly? They should be promoting the Rocket mah.

Ps: An attempt by KJ to embarass Kris maybe?

Liverpool... 11 Games Later.

I ve said it isn’t it. Liverpool FC‘s season seems to be going down the drain. We might not even moved on to the next group stage of the Champions League. From top to seven within 2 months.

The draw againsts Arsenal and Blackburn Rovers highlighted that we can’t pass the ball forward.Nobody want to take responsibility of the ball. If the ball is passes to a Liverpool players leg, they will kick it off quickly and sometimes blindly to a teammate. Keep the ball moving should be good ma. But very bad when sideways and backwards passes are completed. When passed forward, the passing will be horrendous. It will either be kicked too hard, too weak, or straight to a opponent’s leg. One touch football is only good when the player you passed the ball to is able to control it or he is not from the opposing team.

And they are still not willing to declare crisis at Anfield. Tolonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng.

He Messed It Up

The dismal state of judiciary of Malaysia is a hot topic lately. It started to heat up with the exposure of a video clip of some lawyer brokering appointments and promotions of high-ranking judges. Although the BN government, via Mr Zam and Pak Lah, among othres, denied any problem with the state of judiciary, it is apparent enough to some of us that something is wrong, very wrong with it.

The 26 September 2007 'Walk for Justice' march at Putrajaya reflected how troublesome the Judiciary system is. Even Sultan Azlan Shah is not happy with the state of the institution he had once headed. With the Executive and Legislation arms of our country closely linked, the only way for a check and balance for our democracy is an independent Judiciary.

And to revive the glory and most importantly its independence, one man must admit his mistake and apologizes for turning our country’s judiciary to its current condition now.

That man is the man who had instigated the 1988 Malaysian constitutional crisis by sacking the then Lord President of the Supreme Court, Tun Salleh Abas for not willing to bow to his command. That man is the man who had liken the Judiciary as a arm of the government, just like the police and civil servants.

That man is Dr Mahathir Bin Mohamad.

If the previous administration will not admit the fault in its policy, I forsee the current administration for using it as an excuse to continue that faulty policy. The current administration might even use the excuse of not willing to embaras, ie continue respecting the legacy of the previous administration.

I know he had retired and just had a heart surgery. But that does not absolve his responsibility for the key part he had played in this matter. I really don’t understand why his name was never drag into this latest outcry for Judiciary independence.

Role Model

Something caught my eyes in The Star dated 17 October 2007. There is a colum with the heading

"Samy Worries About Couch Potatoes".

Seems like because Astro is now offering so many Hindi and Tamil channels, Samy is worry that the Indian communities will all become fat and round. Wise words.

But wait a minute, isn't that exactly Samy's shape in the first place?

Merdeka

Happy 50th anniversary Malaysia.




Merdeka, Merdeka, Merdeka, Merdeka, Merdeka, Merdeka, Merdeka.

whatever meaning it brings.

RM171,000 Rental Car

RM171,000.00 to rent a car! The Star reported that is how much our government is paying to rent a Nash Rambler Custom Convertible 1951 car, so that our prime minister can ride in it along with a couple of his ministers. Dr Rais Yatim, our nation’s merdeka celebration coordinator feels that by re-enacting the scene where a similar car brought Tunku around when he return home to announce the country’s independence will somehow show how patriotic the bunch is.

RM171,000.00. For a couple of hours use when launching the 50th National Day celebration. Man, am I furious. This is the time when we are bombarded left right with how our government is being wasteful (think the Angkasawan project, the Brickendonbury football academy in London, the new VVIP airplane for the PM etc), how the laymen are suffering from then rising inflations, how the government’s money (that means yours and my money loh) will be use to bail out a sorry example of our fail corporate governess and horrible corruption in the Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) fiasco.

RM171,000.00. That’s low cost housing for 3 families, 34 motorcycles for the low income group, 342 bicycles for our poor students, 34,200 Malaysian flags for us to hang on our cars (so that we can prove how patriotic we are, as some politicians implied!) or even 1 and a half Ford Focus 1.8l for me for 10 years use. Sigh.

RM171,000.00. What ever gives Dr Rais the impression that riding on the car will instill patriotism in us? Or bring back any nostalgia of 1957. How many of us remembers or even cares what kind of car Tunku rode on? Wouldn't it be more important to remember what Tunku faught for? Merdeka is not about all this ‘remeh temeh’ thingies. It is about the correct spirit in all of us. How us Malaysians felt about loving our country and are love back by her. How we feel that we can be proud of our leaders and not be treated as a lulu by them. How we are made to feel that there is a bright future for all us Malaysians, rregardless of our skin colour or religious, if we work and toil hard for the nation.

I am furious, man. But moreover, I am sad, very sad.

I am f*****g worried!!!!

Saw the matches against Shenhua and Feyenoord. Looks like we are going to have the same problem as last season. Ball dominations without clinical finishing. The match against Feyenoord should demonstrate quite well why I felt this way. Chances after chances are wasted. Balls are crossed blindly into the penalty box. Our players hardly touches the ball inside the oppositions' penalty box.

Kewell and Pennant showed up short again. Voronin is non existence, Kuyt is running around again being busy but still not scoring (the disallowed perfectly scored goal notwithstanding), Alonso seems disinterested and hardly passed forward, the back four were caught asleep, and even Stevie G gave up after half time.

This season is suppose to be our best with the new attacking-minded signings, but I dont really see any of them giving their all. Torres and Babel's scoring record with us is still very disappointing. Benayoun is an exception in giving his all but somehow kinda lack a great player's qualities to grab a match.

I am f**king worried!!!!! I hope I am wrong!! Reds for EPL champions!!!!

ps: a friend told me Charity Shield winners never win the league in the same season. So there goes MU.
And an earlier version of this post posted on a sport forum out there.

RapidPenang

Yesterday, purposely leave work sharp at 5.45pm. Purpose, wanna ride the new RapidPenang bus services. Why? Freeeeeeeeeeee mah. NO need pay money wor!

I rode my bike to Weld Quay Jetty. Reach there around 6.15pm. A lot of people there also. Notice lots of uncle and aunties. I intended to take any bus that goes to the more hulu places, for the longer journey, such as Teluk Bahang, Balik Pulau or Paya Terubung. I know there are also services to Prai, but those used the Jelutong Expressway, no scenery. Besides I don’t want to get trap on a bus in a jam on the Penang Bridge.

Here, I saw the ugly side of Penangites. Don’t want to queue. Don’t even want to wait for those one to bus to disembark first. Don’t even want to wait for the bus to come into a standstill.

Wait and wait for almost 15 minutes, still no bus that I wanted. Give up, and take the one to Penang Hill station. The bus is clean cause new mah! Aircond also powerful. Inside the bus, I decided to stand, and leave the seats to anybody else. I saw that the bus could sit 29 and standing room for another 20. First impression, realize many uncles and aunties. I believe must have been on the bus for the whole day already. All booked seats swee swee already. Bus starts to move even though only around 25 people on board. A good sign. Past experience, don’t care whether you have to wait 30 minutes or an hour, as long as not full, the bus will wait.

Reached Komtar. Walau eh, here people mountain people sea, all waiting to board the bus. Saw a yellow Milan bus there also, empty. And as usual, again typical kiasu penangites, as soon as the bus doors open, there is a mad rush to board the bus, even using the door behind which is suppose to let people get down from the bus only. End up, almost 80-90 people on the bus. Pack like sardin. Barely able to close the bus doors. Luckily I am tall, people smell my ketiak only :)

RapidPenang should have some personals to stop people from boarding a packed bus or even to drag down to stubborn one. Just like those at Putra LRT at Masjid Jamek, KL. At least to stop people from boarding a bus using the back door, i.e. no need to pay.

The ride is slow. Penang after office rush-hour traffic mah. Some more coincide with schools finishing their evening session.

Anyway the trip reaches Air Itam market. Decided to get down there to have a bowl of the Air Itam famous laksa. Nowadays quite salty. Overheard the Laksa uncle said last night when the bus service is ending, he saw a bunch of lau yi come down from a bus, all very ‘hua hi”, very syiok. Must have ridden the bus all day already. Some even “chuah soon chuah kia”.

After the laksa, took another bus, which is waiting nearby, back to Jetty. This one got music somemore one loh. But back door already faulty. Hydraulic failure so cannot open automatically. Overheard one uncle says, “three day only spoiled already ah”. So have to open and close by hand. And since I am standing there, I appoint myself to be a temporary doorman for RapidPenang for the whole trip. Wonder can claim salary or not?

My parents lagi terror. They also took a bus from the bus stop near my place to Komtar. And from there to Megamal Prai. Uncle and auntie also wanna have fun mah. Their trip lagi best. Their first bus halted at Jalan Datuk Keramat, due to engine failure or something. forcing them to walk to Komtar. Luckily quite near Gama already,. Kesian…………

2007 Summer Blockbusters

The 2007 summer blockbuster season has come and goes. This is the list of movies I have watched.

Spiderman 3

Stupid movie. Spidey is a whimp. He can’t even beat any of the Supervillans without help. The fight sequence are also blurry and dizzying. Trying to cramp in to many things into this movie resulting in too little time for anything. My advice to Superhero movie directors, stick to one supervillain.
My verdict : 3.5 out of 5

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

Watch the movie because of Johnny Depp and Tai Kor Fatt. Enjoyable. Depp is again excellent. Looking forward to Pirate 4. One thing which I really found out of place in the movie, the Davy Jones Locker. I expect it to be more scary place and should definitely far more difficult to escape from. The final battle sequence seems strange and out of place. And whats that about the sea goddess?
My verdict : 4 out of 5

Fantastic Four : Rise of the Silver Surfer

Stupidest movie of my list. Stupid computer effect, stupid plot, stupid anti-climatic finale and Jessica Alba don’t even look hot in this movie.
My verdict: 2 out of 5

Transformers

The computer animations are really cool and wonderful. The humans are a pain in the ass though. Sam Witwicky (played by Shia Lebouf) whines and whines and whines. The autobots’ characters sounds more like a bunch of juvenile misfits rather than Earth's saviours. And whats with mouth on Optimus anyway? I feel there is a scene when viewed from side way, his face looks like an ape (a tribute to Optimus Primus, maybe?). And Frenzy (the radio robot) looks like a stick insect rather than a transformer.
My verdict: 4 out of 5

Die Hard 4.0

Bruce Willis rocks. Best movie of the lot. Tonnes of explotions, witty one liner. Yippi-kay-ay

My verdict : 4.5 out of 5

The Simpsons Movie

Funny but don’t really have the Simpsons magic. Too much Homer and too little Bart, although Homer is my favourite Simpsons. And the Spider-pig song is hilarious.
My verdict : 4 out of 5

and I am proud to say I watch all these movies in cineplexes. Say No to Piracy. Which also means I miss the scene after the final credit in POTC3 and during the credit of Simpsons. Crap

Kayveas oh Kayveas

I really think this M. Kayveas guy is a real joke.

He came out all conquering and was even quoted even by his own PPP website spelling out his actual words, "MENGANCAM" to pull out PPP from BN if PPP is not allocated more seats for the next General Election.

Then the guy backtrack and says that his statement is not a threat. I think my BM-English transalation skill is good enough to recognise that "Mengancam" does mean "to threaten". Mr Kayveas also shows off his language skills. I quote him "A threat is waving a keris and asking when you are going to draw blood".

Refering to a certain UMNO VP and some of its members, maybe?












Anyway, of course, when you issue such threat, some big shots like DPM Najib, Umno VP Muhyiddin Yassin, Melaka Chief Minister Ali Rustam, MCA VP Dr Chua Soi Lek etc. all come out trying to be heros and lambast the Kayveas guy loh.

To make things more interesting, Kayveas replies all fired up hammering Ali Rustam, citing examples such as "(Ali Rustam) award 200 Datukships to people without positions or even addresses in Malaysia". I am thinking, because of these allegations by a federal deputy minister, if I am a Malaccan, I will try to sue to Malacca goverment for lowering the standard of Malacca datukship and other titles. I think I would have a case, wont I?

Farny business la...

PS: for a political party who claims to have 500 thousand members, I think it is kind of strange that the party's website only listed 3 names as any office bearers, ie the President and two other names from their Cheras division.

Football

Woke up this morning. Like usual, switch on the tv to Channel 80 Astro for some sport updates. Eurosport news is always on at these time. A live football game seems to be on. The score three to nothing. It must be the Malaysian national team. Normal-lah, kena belasah while falling to score. The defence is horrible, the midfielders are non existence and the strikers running around doing nothing.

But then I realised, although they are wearing stripe jersey, the colour isnt the malaysian colour of yellow and black. Is my eyes playing some kind of tricks on me? Has the Malaysian national team change their colours to light blue and white?

Then it hit me like Ayala's own goal. Its the Argentinians. The game is the Argentina-Brazil on the Copa America 2007.

And some soh hai argie supporter (in BM) actually stayed up to watch the whole match.

hahahhhhahahahhaha

ps: somebody fowarded this to me

Confuse lah!!

The opening of Lim Kok Wing’s University College of Creative Technology school in Kelantan and the singer getting humiliated by the Perak Islamic Department (JaiP) is really getting me confused la.

On one hand, Kelantan, the supposedly strict state that you need to wear “appropriately” all the time might be getting more moderate, by allowing a creative design school. The key word is definitely “Creative”. Design school leh, where creative freedom should be very important. Where we should have emerging fashion designers designing sexy moderate clothing, where architectural students are also allow to design non-Islamic inspired designs, where the fashion students are able to parade their designs on catwalks with mixed audience in attendance. Unlike the last time where a fashion show organised by the Kelantan state government is only opened for woman audience, even though all the models are wearing tudung.
Or maybe Tan Sri Lim is renaming the new campus a school of Islamic design. Cannot be what, the PAS government say they want to attract students from Myammar, Cambodia and China, which are not predominant Islamic countries.

On the other hand, the other states, this time its Perak seems to be getting more Islamic by the day. She is only a singer there and imho there is nothing revealing about that dress of hers.


What is so revealing about this? What to expose? Or maybe the Jaip officers get hard on by such 'exposing of body'?

JaiP is picking on her by slamming different ‘stupid’ charges on her (just like Kayveas is doing to CTOS now, but that is another story). She is only earning a living, its nothing illegal, not like she’s a GRO or something.

So confused la, so nowadays which one is moderate? PAS or BN (Umno la)?

Penang Food

This guy from Kuching, Mr Ass or something asks about the Best Penang hawker food.
So here is my list.

BEST LAKSA (ASSAM)

Air Itam wet market. You know the place.

For those who like their laksa gravy with chunks of fish rather than the ‘jamban paper’-like mashed up fish, try the stall at Perak Lane. The stall nearer to the Jelutong Road junction run by Ah Boon. Noon only.

Or if your prefer your laksa to be on the sweet side, then visit the kopitiam opposite the Penang Chinese Girl High School along Gotlieb Road. They also sell fried Springrolls, which you can dunk into your laksa gravy and chai koay.

For a different taste, Penang Malay laksa try the stall along Jalan Sungai Pinang (night only)You’re your left just after you exited the Jelutong Expressway. Powerful stuffs. Request for lots of cili padi and your will virtually sear your tongue.

BEST CHICKEN RICE

Kopitiam at the Junction of Jalan Sungai Pinang and Jalan Jelutong (Lunch only). The rice served is already good by itself.

BEST CHAR KOEY TEOW

New World (previously from Swatow Lane). The first stall on your right if you enter from the car park. But now they serve using Styrofoam plates and disposable chopsticks. I hate that. Will boycott until they revert back to normal cutlery.

BEST HOKKIEN (PRAWN) MEE

Ewe Family Hokkien Mee. Hidden along Perak Road.

BEST CURRY MEE

The Place under the tree near Pulau Tikus. I suspect they are really liberal with MSG, but the soup are good.

BEST ARK TUI MEE SUAH

The junction coffeshop on the same road with Eden Bakery. (nearest to roundabout). Night Only. Limited quantity sold daily.

BEST LOH BAK

Junction of Kimberly Street and Carnovan Street. Morning only. The loh bak might not have the same cylinder-ish shape that we are accustomed to.

BEST OH CHIEN

Same place as best loh bak. Noon - Evening only.

BEST YAM RICE

Kimberly Street. The stall selling Yong Tau Fu ran by a young couple inside the kopitiam. The yong tau fu is good but the real good stuff is the Yam Rice.

ROAD SIDE BURGER

Road side burger tasted almost the same depending on how much lea & perrin, tomato, chilli sauce or mayonnaises they use. This stall ran by a malay old lady in front of the mosque at Taman Free School (behind the famous Nasi Melayu) serves something different. She adds her own potato salad on to the burger. You can also request cili padi to be added for your Burger Egg. Also she ran the stall alone, so service might be slow.

New year, new beginning

Welcome to my blog. Ok, I know I am jumping in to this blogging bandwagon. What the heck, bloggers are cool. I am now a blogger, so I am cool.
