Good food can be found in Kajang too
I still get to eat authentic Sarawak Kolo Mee in Kajang, thanks for good Sarawakian friends with visiting parents. Yum… I’ve been hearing about the pretty famous Broga fish from friends and bloggers for a long time now, but never made the trip to try it. Not until I watched Ho Chak on 8tv that featured the Broga fish. Watch the episode here. Interestingly, the 8tv crew didn’t go to the shop that is actually the famous one amongst locals, but they visited another shop instead that is on the way there.

Joost is Live and Free for all
Joost is no longer by invite only guys, so I won’t be sending out those invites anymore. If you’re still having the old version, you will have to uninstall and redownload the new Joost Beta 1.0 which is available for both Windows and Mac.

I tried adding my Alliance Ikea Debit Card, but it’s not acceptable. So this afternoon, I dropped by Public…

Of Rain and public protests
Since the start of Ramadhan, Kajang town has seen extra traffic especially during lunch hours. Why is this so? I was stuck in one of those jams yesterday mid afternoon as I was leaving my office for lunch, and lo and behold, it also happened to be raining. A normal 5 minute drive to reach town this time took me half an hour. That was how bad the jam was. So slow that I was able to snap pics. Today, during lunch, I was able to witness a group of Maybank Kajang employees, ‘catching snakes’ or ‘chicken’ (meaning escaping work) by protesting outside the the bank. What a funny sight,…
