I decided to walk the talk yesterday afternoon and went to the nearby ramadan stalls to try my luck savouring the delicious food offerred.
I was lucky because the weather is fine and i had a field day spoiling myself with the numerous choices. Some guys have all the luck.
Among the specialities that caught my eyes are the ayam percik, ikan merah curry, ayam rendang, pucuk ubi and a kind of river siput whereby i had to use my mouth to suck out the flesh. Other delights like otak-otak daun nipah is also highly recommended. Another interesting food is the halal dim sum (1Malysia might be a reality after all).
You guys may be wondering where i got this stuff, knowledge wise. FYI, i took the initiative to turun padang to chat up with these enterprising entrepreneurs. They were equally surprise with my approach and are very enthusiastic in answering my queries. If i can do it, why not you guys. Do it now and make it a step towards realisation of 1Malaysia concept.
I have spotted a stall selling my all time favourite. I am going to be well fed and feasted with the ever popular nasi briyani with ayam rendang. Yummy!!!!
Oh!....not forgetting a glass of air bandung later (introduce to me by my old pal, roslan).

HOLY MONTH OF RAMADAN
During this holy month of ramadan, i came across a friend of mine who is a government servant but had actually taken a month no pay leave for the simple reason of making himself some extra money to celebrate hari raya.
With the present ever increasing prices of almost all essential items, practically almost all ordinary people are feeling the pinch or seeing the monthly spending or groceries budget being tightened further. It is no longer easy for a family of four to survive unless both husband and wife are working. Even that, after deducting the monthly financial obligation, they can hardly survive.
Back to my friend, he is trying to make a good income at the ramadan market by selling the usual customary muslim food, like grilled fish, ayam golek and other goodies. As a friend, i wished him all the best and hope that he can have a comfortable festive celebration.
Other races also attend such market to savour all those tasty cuisines. Anyway, its only once a year and we could hardly let it slipped away. In the midst of svouring these delicious food, did we give a thought about taking this opportunity to socialise with them and help strengthened the friendship that we had for the past 50 years?
It is not always for us to mingle with each other and let us be honest about it. Wouldn't it be ice if we start doing it this time? Solidarity, friendship and understanding are the main ingredients towards achieving the government concept of 1Malaysia. Though it is still in the infant stage with sceptical view among we all.
To ensure harmony in our beloved country, let us take the initiative to do the needful and the first step. It won't take much of your time and will leave a foundation of solid ground for our future generation.
Meanwhile, i smell of some hot and spicy satay brewing towards my direction. Any takers????
Selamat berbuka puasa for all my muslim friends and business associates.

It's been a while now
How time flies. It must have been ages since i blog. Hardly had any time to blog since my time is occupied with my job. Am always on the move, meaning outstation.
However, had a pleasant surprise from joyce when she sms me saying that charm website had some photos. It took me about a week to check it out. The situation is bad judging from the photos. Even though mc took remedial action to rectified the situation but it will be better off to discuss once and for all the responsibilities and co-operation between mc and charm.
All this must be3 done in a professional manner. After all it is for the welbeing of country heights.
Someone had to take the lead and i hope it be better fast. Otherwise, at the end of the day, residents confidence will be eroded.
Let's do it fast......
