Howard, Thanks for the visit. We are a peaceful country coming to term with the pandemic. In a month time almost 100% of the people would have been vaccinated. With days the economy would open with full swing. As it is the inland tourism is opening. Have a nice day.

Ikan Singgang....

Ikan Singgang is  one traditional Malay dish that is simple to do. Yet it is not only delicious but nutritious as well.

I had brought my latest camera the Canon EOS M10 with me. It is a Mirrorless camera, the new new generation of the DSLR. It is much smaller than the DSLR and have interchangeable lens. As soon as I got there I walk along the beach and enjoy the freshness of the morning air. Yonder at the horizon I could see some light as the the sun makes it
