Aqiqak during the MCO...

Our second cicit Nadaa's grandparents (our eldest daughter) organised an Aqiqa as well a Majlis Kesyukoran for the 2 months old baby of their second daughter, on 7.3.2021 at their home. Because of the MCO the traditional ceremony had to conform with the new normal during the lockdown. So they organized the event lives online using the latest technology. Only the family members were in the house and other relatives and friends join in via Zoom. It turns out to as successful as had been anticipated. To add to the already colourful event it was also the NekNyang Asmah's 81st Birthday. So her birthday was also celebrated in the house as well.  What a way to celebrate such a beautiful events on both generation of the Idrus clan.  I am indeed happy that things turns out to be as successful with everyone having a joyous time. Alhamdulillah. 

Have a nice day.

I'm glad you used Zoom for a large family event! Pat and I In Ulu Michigan had a Zoom dinner with our son in California for Thanksgiving and Christmas! The technology allowed us to do that!

Ikan Singgang....

Ikan Singgang is  one traditional Malay dish that is simple to do. Yet it is not only delicious but nutritious as well. Its one dish that you can find in the Malay world, perhaps call by other names, nevertheless it is still Ikan Singgang. It is the creation of our ancestors where fish have always been their main protein source; sort of the wisdom of the old. A wise creation indeed and because of it we still kept enjoying it  I have always love Ikan Singgang especially when Ikan Aya [Tuna fish] is use but it always taste as good even with other fish like Tenggiri or Kerisi. When making this simple dish one herb/spice that is a must is Lengkuas [Galangal] for without it the Singgang is not complete. The above image of Ikan Singgang is made with Ikan Tenggiri. Delicious as usual. Taken with steamy white rice and Budu [Anchovies sauce] or Sambal Belacan [Shrimp sauce] it is heaven already.  I posted that image on Facebook and below are two informative comments made th...

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...
