Visiting Kenyalang Park for CNY

Like many of you, I was shop­ping around look­ing for CNY foods, Snack, cook­ies, cards, cloths, (chick­ens, ducks, porks?) and etc… So how dif­fer­ent is this year com­par­ing to last year and the year before and the year before that? The hol­i­day mood is moody.

I greet one of the lady boss who sell CD & DVD “Gong Xi Fa Chai”! She responded to me say it would be bet­ter for 心想事成! (xīn xiǎng shì chéng ) Mean­ing bet­ter to dream comes true than “Fa Chai” good wealth! Ah… some­time I just am impressed by busi­ness­men and gal! They are not wrong at all, 2009 is going to be harder than 2008! In fact Q1 of 2008 was still fantastic!

I grew up here so I kinda love this place although there are nicer shop­ping places around :)

Wish­ing you and beloved family, 心想事成!

tHe Spring Kuching @ Photos

The Spring InteriorI took these pho­tos on Jan 12, 2008. If you have not been to The Spring, well this is for you. The idea of shop­ping mall in Kuch­ing is over whelm­ing. I pay a visit again last sat­ur­day, more shops were open @ HSL, Sony & etc… you can head over to both shops now for their 32 inches LCD promotion.

Both Sam­sung & Sony 32 inches LCD is for only RM2888RM3300! If you know what you are look­ing for, these 2 selec­tion might fit the bill for your Chi­nese New Year new shin­ning screen! More

170 years old cemetery

Cemetery 1I grew up in this squatter’s area for more than 15 years. My grand­mother and grand­fa­ther sold off their land at 17th miles and move here for more than 40 years. I was 11 years old when my father bought a shabby house for RM500 (USD143) from the pre­vi­ous ten­ant. This small areas houses Iban (major­ity) Bidayuh & Chinese.

On Decem­ber 12, 2007 The Bor­neo Post pub­lish an arti­cle “170-year-old Iban ceme­tery in piti­ful state” urg­ing the Dayak com­mu­nity to clean up the ceme­tery. When I exam­ine the photo closely I was sur­prise the pic­ture shown is the place where I use to live, in fact my par­ents and my sib­ling still stay there. I’ve tried to con­vince my mom to move to my new house but she still like to stay there for a while longer to see if the local gov­ern­ment would relo­cate them to a bet­ter hous­ing area. More
