Life like that #1

One of my grand nephew now working at a GLC in Putrajaya give me a lift in his brand new car to Ampang Jaya last year. I saw him grow from baby to now a young millennial. This was the first time I got the opportunity to talk to him as an adult. He was happy with his new job and and now driving his dream car. He say he wanted to move out from his mom's house and rent an apartment in Cyberjaya. I listen and quip from time to time. Well in my mind could he afford to rent an apartment I wonder! As we move into 2019 while talking to his mom I ask whether his son has move to live on his own in Cyberjaya. She say when he told her she like me just kept our thoughts to ourselves. She then quip that her son decided not to move out and continue to stay at her home in PJ. I thoughts that was a wise move for I believe he could not afford the expenses. Remember if the rent is RM1500 a month the first month he would have to fork out RM4500 just to move in. That RM4500 is gone for good and the next month rental is always around the corner...so the story goes!.

Have a nice day.

The Flags in Colonial Malaya...

In this posting I want to talk about Flags. I was born in 1939 and grew up during the Japanese occupation of Malaya from 1941 to 1945. So the first flag I saw was the Japanese flag, the white flag with the red circle in the centre. With the return of the British authority the Union Jack was again flown everywhere. With the defeat of the Japanese and the return of the British authority in Malaya the school was reopened. Except for the Japanese school all other schools was closed during the Japanese occupation. In January 1946 I start schooling. I remember my father took me to Sekolah Melayu Teruntun at Jalan Gambut in Kuantan. From the shop-house at Wall Street [now Jalan Mahkota] where we live we walk across the Padang, then follow the path across the grassland behind the Kuantan District Office to the school. The school is across the road with a few Pokok Kelapa Bali planted in front near the roadside. Kelapa Bali is what the Oil Palm is now known. It was at the school tha...

My little garden . ..

I love gardening and with the little space that I got in front of my patio I planted many greens including the one that flowers throughout the years.  As they say flowers are the keepers of our Joys.  Indeed they are. I am always happy when looking at these wonderful God's creation. Here are some of the flowers that blooms in my little garden as well those that grows in front of the house. Enjoy it folks much as I had enjoyed growing them.  Have a nice day.
