Queen enjoy the natural sea spa

1.The queen loves her mee siam and mee rebus at AMK market 409a. But too much of mee siam caused her body rashes all over. Now she complained of itchines. Apply lotion dont work.
The stress in her office work and the financial bad news all over the world bring distress.

2.After too much grumbling I suggest we go to Changi Coast Road seaside for a natural sea spa. The sea salt water act as natural spa to de-toxin the rashes on the body. An act to dip in the sea to wash away our sins. And emerge fully baptised.

3. After the evening spa we left to Changi Airport Terminal III for dinner at the Foodcourt. It remind me of seeing the Mamasan off at the airport leaving home for Japan last yr. The mamasan was very touched to see our whole family came to wave her home. But sad to say the latest news is that we may not see her again. Torusan mum had a quarrel with her and the friendship pecha(broken).

4. Discovery of Crowne Plaza Hotel at Terminal III. Hope to have a good dinner at the crowne plaza restaurant next month.

Encounter with a shampoo girl

1.On the 2nd Oct just a day after Hari Raya I decided to go for a hair-cut in my home town of Segamat. Just to save some cost and enjoy the good service of the Malaysian shampoo girl.

2. It was just an ordinary uni-sex salon. The hair-dresser or so called 'tao-chew' specialist had the hair-cut for me. It was followed by the shampoo girl which is just a trainee to do the washing for me. The girl in his teen probably 17 yrs, must be a trainee. While the tao chew was cutting hair for me she was cleaning the window and sweeping the floor.

3. The polite young pretty girl was very courteous. As she was scrubbing my hair on my head, she politely address me as 'papa'! Wow! 1st time in my life a young girl address me as papa! Sign of old age liao. She say "Papa if you feel my scrubbing too hard cause pain please let me know"!
I replied her " Ok my head no pain but my heart pain" ! Just two months ago when I was in Hatyai while having massage the young Thai Girl address me as Ah Hieh(brother)! When I was in Batam the waitress address me as Ah-Bang(brother)!

4. After the hair-cut and washing, time to make payment. After making payment, I decided to give $5 tip to the young shampoo girl. I politely told her " for your good service me Ah-Gong is tipping you $5"! She smiled at me and say thank you! Alikato! Seh Seh Papa! Alamak still Papa!

5. I saw her name tag Miss Liu Ling Ling! The salon shop no 7! I decided to buy 4d after having encounter with the 1st shampoo girl who call me Papa. In Mandarin Liu Ling Ling (sound like 6 0 0) !I bought 4d no 6007. Guess what! It came out consolation and I strike $600!

6. The most sweet encounter in my life!

Hari Raya retreat to Gunung Lelang Resort

1.It was some 25 years since I last visited Mt Ophir at Ayer Panas Waterfall near the town of Tangkak. Together with my mum two sisters and a niece we booked a private tour guilde cum driver for $150.00 per day. On 30 Sept we set home from Segamat on the way to Malacca.

2. We passed by Gunung Lelang Resort at the base of Ayer Panas Waterfall. On first sight I fall in love with the Resort. The view was nice and beautiful and cooling. I booked two chalets on the spot for the day. We then left on our journey to Malacca.

3. As my 2nd sister was stritchly vegetarian we decided to fast with her and go vegan. The guilde took us to vegetarian restaurant for lunch and dinner in Malacca. We realised vegetarian was cheap and healthy.

4. In Malacca we visited the Portuguese Fort, Admiral Cheng Ho Temple, Princess Han Li Po palace holy well. Of course the well is now sealed ! Maybe the water has dried up. The 500 yrs cemetery were partly preserved.

5. Back at the Gunung Lelang Resort, it was on the eve of the Hari Raya Holiday. Of course most of the muslim were preparing their last day of the puasa(fasting). It was a quiet night when we checked into the chalet on the eve of the Hari Raya. The night was cool. It rain in the early morning. It was a peaceful retreat after 25 yrs ago! It brings good memory when I last went there climbing the waterfall.

6. Mount Ophir in chinese name it is called Kim Sua(Gold Mountain). In malay it is called Gunung Lelang and the water fall has the nickname Ayer Panas(Hot water). But in actual fact, the water is very cooling. It is the opposite of the nickname Panas(hot).
