Was going through my Port Dickson pictures taken over the weekend when I came across this picture I took of a bunch of guys at the beach.
Upon closer inspection I realised that it was a bag of yellow liquid the dude was carrying.
What are your opinions - seriously, what in the world is that???
Ask most Hokkien Penangites where the best Hokkien food can be found and chances are they will tell you "Ang Hoay Lor". If you're wondering what "Ang Hoay Lor" means, it is "Red Fire Wok" in the local Chinese Hokkien dialect.
This restaurant has been around since the days of my grandparents, so it has stood the test of time and is still surviving with brisk business everyday especially during lunch time.
Located just at the outskirts of Georgetown at Jelutong on Jalan Brick Kiln - this small casual restaurant is easy to miss. The restaurant can be seen from across the road if you're coming from the Jelutong expressway via Sungai Pinang, right opposite the row of shophouses with a lot of car workshops.
Over the weekend on Saturday there was a mass gathering in Kuala Lumpur organised by BERSIH - Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections.
This demonstration - or rally was deemed illegal by the government as they had rejected an application to hold this rally as it deemed it "unnecesarry as we are a democratic country" - as quoted from our not so smart Information Minister.
I had actually forgotten about this rally, and I only realised about it on Sunday when I read the newspapers. But hang on, I didn't actually get any information from the newspapers. The only actual news reported by the newspapers were that there were massive traffic jams in KL that day because of a lot of road closures by the police to screen and limit the people going to join the rally.
NOT ONE MAINSTREAM NEWSPAPER DARED TO REPORT THIS. Press censorage anyone? Only pictures they showed were of massive traffic jams.
Check out the following Al-Jazeera video where Jeff Ooi is invited in for a bit of Q&A.
YouTube of course has proven to be the place to be when you need to find out about rallies like these in malaysia.
It was welcoming again to see that many of the people actually attending the rally were Malay, which goes to show that even Malays are getting fed up of the UMNO-led government which is supposedly looking after their interests.
I'm not all out afraid of heights, but I'm not fond of it either. I'm not very good with anything that I feel I do not have full control over - and rock climbing has looked quite scary to me.
Well, I finally gave it a try on Saturday when I went to Camp 5 in the 1-Utama shopping mall's new wing. In case you're wondering it's located above the bowling alley, accesible via a flight of stairs from the cinema's (GSC) floor.
I went there with my colleagues and we went for the RM45 "Taster" session. This was a session that was designed to give you a taste of rock climbing with no frills. They supply you the shoes and harness and away you go.
Ya ya, I was not ready for this pic - adjusting my harness here. Anyways from the left that's me, Ron, Nicole, Shereen (Patrick's ex-colleague) and Patrick.
Rebecca - a very toned college girl was our marshall for the session.
Mr. Teppanyaki is a Teppanyaki outlet in the Summit USJ. Now I suspect there are more of these outlets around but I can't be bothered at this point to find out.
This is probably not a good sign I guess from a reader's point of view, so bear with me let me tell you all about this place.
The location of this outlet that we went to is very near to where Cold Storage supermarket is in the Summit shopping center.
