Ghost Seeks Wife & Son

0 comments

According to an English daily, 5 men from Alor Setar have sought the help of Micheal Chong, the MCA's Public Services and Complaints Department head, to locate a ghost's wife and son.

The 5 men have, prior to this, taken out advertisements in 3 Chinese newspapers seeking the ghost's wife, Chong Sim Choon and son, Chew Kon Lai.

They claim that the ghost communicated with them when they visited Cambodia in early March this year, when one of them was possessed by the spirit of a dead man demanding that they find his wife and son.

It all started when they checked into a hotel room warned by the masseuse as "spiritually unclean". Not long after 2 of them started telling jokes and ridiculing spirits, they felt the presence of spirits about them. As a result, one of them, Teow Hsium Choon, 36, a factory worker, was then possessed many times the same night by spirits including the one in question.

The ghost warned the 5 that it will continue to hunt them unless they find his wife and son.

Those who have information about the ghost's wife and son please contact Teow Hsium Choon at 019-575 8288 or MCA's Public Services and Complaints Department secretary Tay Joann at 03-2161 5678.

Setarbak Kopi Malaysia

0 comments
This is Setarbak Kopi located at Beranang, Selangor. Its not a coffee shop like Starbucks but rather a coffee mill and it sells coffee powder in packets.

This famous Setarbak coffee mill has reportedly been around for almost a century.

Apparently the shop doen't exist any longer. It was burned down by fire in January this year due to fire spreading from burning bushes behind the row of wooden shops where Setarbak Kopi was situated.

I wonder why no one has started a Setapak Coffee chain yet; could be famous overnight. Possibly not wanting to infringe intellectual property rights of international coffee chain, Starbucks ? Cannot be, this is Malaysia after all..and, Malaysia Boleh !

Liposuction Can Cause Death

0 comments


Liposuction, also known as lipoplasty is simply a cosmetic surgery operation that removes fat from many different parts of the human body. The above video shows how liposuction is done.

Apparently the amount of fat removed varies from doctor or doctor, the method used, and the patient, but typically, it is less than 5 kgs (about 10 pounds).

However, liposuction can be dangerous if not done professionally. Yesterday, Noraini Mohd Ghazali, a 30-year-old company manager, died during the follow-up treatment of a liposuction procedure.

Noraini Mohd Ghazali completed liposuction procedure at a beauty salon in Kuala Lumpur, several months ago. She returned to the salon yesterday after complaining of pain. Its is believed that she he died due to an allergic reaction to an anaesthetic shot given at the salon.

Its better to be safe than sorry. Be cautious when seeking beauty or health treatments, make sure that the business is licensed, qualified persons are conducting the procedure and authorised products are used.

There are now plenty of bogus beauty salons in Malaysia claiming to do liposuction and other kinds of beauty treatment, hoping to make a quick buck from the high demand in these kinds of services.

This blog's traffic statistics for last week - average 600+ visitors per day. Not very good, I know.

Although this blog has gotten traffic up to 1,700 visitors per day last month, traffic of over 1,000 visitors per day has been inconsistent.

Thanks guys, for your support. I'd appreciate suggestions on how to increase traffic to this blog. Any advice is welcome.

Airasia X - Cheap Fares From KL To London

0 comments

AirAsia Bhd’s long-haul airline, AirAsia X, finally flew from the Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT) in Sepang, Kuala Lumpur to London's Stansted Airport, yesterday. This AirAsia's maiden flight to London was on Airbus A340-300 with 289 passengers.

Stansted Airport is in Essex, approximately 48 km from central London, about the same distance from Kuala Lumpur Internatinal Airport (KLIA) to Kuala Lumpur city centre. Stansted is a popular hub for some major European low-cost carriers.

Despite news reports that passengers will spend the 13 hour flight in comparatively smaller seats, which do not recline and have less legroom than other planes, passengers appear not to mind due to the ridiculously low fares. This is a budget airline after all. Similarly, if you pay for a room at a backpackers' hostel, you can't expect 5 star hotel comfort.

Passengers who require additional comfort and service have the option of paying a little extra for XL seats, watch in-flight movies, blankets, pillows, eye covers and, of course, meals and drinks.

AirAsia X, is AirAsia's long haul budget airline operated by AirAsia X Sdn. Bhd. AirAsia X commenced its first flight on 2 November 2007 to Gold Coast, Australia from its base in Kuala Lumpur.

The Nabau Monster Of Sarawak

0 comments
According to Iban folkore, Nabau is a giant sea serpent (or dragon) more than 100 feet long. The legend also says that Nabau is a shape shifter capable of transforming itself into different animals. One version of its origins is that the Nabau had once turned into a human being, trying to seduce a warrior’s wife. The warrior, having caught Nabau, sliced the serpent into seven parts and threw them into the river. These parts then became the seven rocks rapids now found along the Rejang River.

On 31st January 1009, a member of the disaster relief committee in Sibu sighted Nabau while monitoring floods in Ulu Rajang from a helicopter. He then took photographs of the monster which was in Sungai Baleh.

The Ibans of Sarawak believe that the grand Nabau is like a petara (a god), having supernatural powers, and anyone seeing it will apparently experience good fortune.

What do you think ? Is Nabau real ?

Yuen Buffet Steamboat's Chicken Wings War

0 comments
Yuen Buffet Steamboat, located at Sunway Mentari commercial centre (Opposite Sunway Pyramid Shopping Mall) in Selangor, possibly offers one of the widest seamboat choices of meat, seafood and vegetables amongst the steamboat restaurants in Klang Valley. But this is hardly what its famous for.

While Yuen is generally a steamboat restaurant, it is more well known for its "honey chicken wings" (BBQ chicken wings marinated with honey) which patrons have to literally fight for.

If you think Kentucky Fried Chicken is "Finger Lickin' Good", then for some people, Yuen's Chicken Wings are "Worth Fighting For".

Watch this video and witness for yourself:
