Local Fruits

Aku enda enggau urang belandik ke buah ti di-impot. Buah menua kitai ditu pan nadai kurang ia ba penyamai, vitamin contents.

Aku deka ngambar sekeda agi bansa buah ti dikemisi kitai.

Arapka kitai nguji, serta muji buah menua diri empu.

Mushroom

"Bagaikan cendawan tumbuh selepas hujan" is a Malay saying describing a situation where everyone tries to duplicate one another like opening a Coffeeshop, a laundry outlet, perhaps?

BUT this is a "poisonous" mushroom, NOT to be eaten!

I took this picture outside my house before my wife quickly get rid of it.

Looks harmless if you're not knowledgeable about the species, so be very careful before you think of cooking them.

Yum yum .....

Glorious food for your picking. No one can live without them, or is that a poor statement?

Hawkers really know how to come up with great recipes. These days, many countries are claiming these recipes to be theirs, thus creating a "war" about who's first and who's the "copycat" in this case?

Personally, I dont give a care, why waste time fighting over them. They are to be savour, to be enjoyed especially when you're on an empty stomach.

Forget the dieting once in a while. Food is heavenly.

My pick? If for a bowl of kolo mee, I prefer those in Green Road, especially the stall along Gold Jade Road. It has that "original" taste from the 70s, the authentic taste for me.

Nay, I'm not endorsing anyone of them, just sharing.

About Penyabung GameFarm

Picture: Penyabung Game Farm's Logo



This is one sport that I love which may be cruel to animal lovers.
I was introduced so many years ago that I lost track when I got into it.
No, I won't pass it on to my kids, mind you?
WE have our own small "farm" the outskirts of Kuching, where we breed our own fighting birds.
Their sizes are between 2kgs to 2.6kgs each. And each have developed their own fighting techniques.
Many people have placed their trust in our specially-trained fighting birds and many have come back for more.
We have sold uncountable number of "gladiators" and the selling price are NOT fixed.
Penyabung GameFarm's handler is Mr. Ben Ujai, who is very dedicated towards producing in every bird that "winning edge."
I dont encourage gambling folks, and for us its just a hobby!

LAKSA

Hmmm............ what can I say? Simply loving it!

I know some people will talk about its cholesterol contents, some prefer using milk and some coconut milk, whatever the ingredients being used here, no one can say LAKSA is not "sedap di makan."

I usually drop by the stall operating in Palm Road, my 1st choice , my 2nd choice the one in Stutong Baru, and another outlet somewhere along the Ban Hock Road.

I prefer mine without prawns, but with thin sliced of omelette and of course, the condiments (sambal) to go with it must be spicy!

Need I say much more to tempt your taste bud guys, I dont think so?

So, try it out and get back to me on that.

Happy days are back again ..............

Sidang Injil Borneo (SIB) Iban Kpg Stutong, Kuching

We've moved into this NEW Church 2 weeks already. The "old" Church was a shophouse which was rented to us for nearly 20 years, somewhere in BDC housing estate.

This building was built at a cost of RM100,000+ through donations and its about 90% completed.

Our elder is The Rev.Daniel Ngilek and our Pastor is Ambrose Liap.

The congregation is mainly made up of Ibans from Kpg.Stutong, Kpg.Stampin, some PTPL students and those residing in BDC.

This Church now can accomodate about 400 people and we are thankful to Almighty God for granting our wish and vision which was finally realised after 5 years of praying and seeking.

We hope to be a beacon to those living near the vicinity and to reach out to more people for Christ.

Najib turns blind eye to anti-Malaysian protests

By Asrul Hadi Abdullah Sani (The Malaysian Insider)

PUTRAJAYA, Sept 2 - Datuk Seri Najib Razak played down today anti-Malaysian protests the past few days by Indonesians in Jakarta, insisting the apparent strain would not affect ties between the two countries.

Yesterday, Indonesian television showed a group of students from Gadjah Mada University in Yogyakarta protesting against the presence of Malaysian students and burning the Malaysian flag.

Today, Indonesian students reportedly pelted the Malaysian embassy in Jakarta with rotten eggs. They also tried to raise an Indonesian flag at the embassy gates.

The latest attack was sparked by apparent anger over a belief in Indonesia that Malaysia’s national anthem had been copied from an Indonesian song, Terang Bulan.

The protests come on the back of the recent controversy over a Balinese dance being used to promote a satellite television show about Malaysia.

“The president SBY (Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono) has told me that he wants a close and friendly relationship between Malaysia and Indonesia. The president also calls me personally about any issues regarding the two countries,” Najib said today.

But, despite the prime minister’s remarks, it has been apparent that Indonesia-Malaysia ties have been strained in recent months, especially over the Ambalat issue.

Indonesia claimed that Malaysian warships had entered the Ambalat area in the Sulawesi sea in early June.

Soon after that, Indonesia also stopped allowing its citizens from being sent to work as maids in Malaysia after reports of abuse by Malaysian employers.

***What is this, adding more tension after the Ambalat issue.

Being "serumpun" and so many similarities between these two "friendly" neigbors, naturally people from the West will have wonderin' thoughts why these is happening again after the Confrontation back in the 60s?

I hope our generations will be able to live by side with one another instead of always "playing with fire."

The world is big enough for all of us. Go find your own playground.***
