The Putrajaya Wetlands...

I  no longer could drive out of the vicinity of my home in Ampang Jaya. The furthest is the KLCC and the GE mall at Jalan Ampang. Of course I always drive to the Ampang Point which is just two kilometres away where I get my grocery. As to continue moving around I am finding new way to travel outside my comfort zone. So last Saturday with the help of the former driver of my daughter who now works somewhere else I managed to get him to be my part-time driver. He has agreed to do that only on Saturday and Sunday; both are his off day from his official work as driver. So last Saturday with him driving I manage to get to Putrajaya, first to watch the Hot Air Balloon Carnival and then move around that capital city to take more picture of buildings there.

Then on the way back the driver took me to have a look at another area of the Putrajaya Wetlands. There I saw for the first time an area especially develop for water birds to feed and move around on that part of the lake. It was indeed an enchanting sight to see so many kind of birds moving gracefully on the  surface of the lake. I notice there is a bird feeders where all the birds came to feed regularly. At that time there were many birds feeding there. I managed to take some images of the many birds that was there that fine Saturday morning. Above is an enchanting scene of the enclave of that lake. I shall write more about this part of the Putrajaya Wetlands later. 

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.
