Yasmin Ahmad Museum @ Sekeping Kong Heng

We all loved Yasmin Ahmad. Her Petronas ads are very much part of our culture in more ways than we can think of. Her works made us think, reflect ... and be the better person that we all can be, should be.

I am so glad Sekeping has started a Yasmin Ahmad museum @ Kong Heng in my hometown Ipoh. Currently it can only open on weekends as there are costs involved in the running, upkeep and to put up more of her works. The key level we need to get to is US$17,500 with 38 days to go. 

Go to the link below,  your consideration and magnitude will help immensely.

Food Review: Tim Ho Wan

Image
After the initial rush to try Tim Ho Wan having subsided, I managed to secure easily a table with my friends for lunch at their outlet @ One Utama.  Surprisingly, it was half empty on a working weekday at 12.30pm? Where are the crowds? I know One U very well, there are a few towers of offices nearby, you can see them thronging through the mall every lunchtime by the hundreds. I guess I know the reason after looking at the menu prices. (thats the whole menu, exactly 25 items only) They are a bit on the high side in terms of price, and hence its not really something most office workers can have lunch here twice a week cause its going to be between RM30-40pp for dim sum each time. Having said that, the place at Mid Valley is still full during lunch time, and I think thats because we have a lot more tourists, the ladies who lunch, the lepaking executives having "business meetings" there. (the century egg & lean meat porridge  10/10) The fish skin were well done as they were ...

The Tide Has Turned?

Image
The local bourse has been drifting down for weeks now with no respite in sight. As written a few weeks back, Malaysia's problems were not largely associated with the USA-China trade wars: The Problems :  We are in the midst of "house-cleaning", while we are quite prepared to be patient, a few things are noteworthy.  a)  Removing of GLC CEOs and other BN appointees from important government positions  - While I wholeheartedly support this, it also hampers all these affected GLCs to "move" or carry out projects. Nobody dares to negotiate contracts as the situation at the top is still fluid. This has to be managed FAST and QUICK. The longer we carry out this bloodletting, the longer the downtrend of the market will be. There is a very low-velocity number in the current velocity of money. b)  Tainted Companies  - Those not in the GLCs bracket but 'tainted' listed companies are affected as well. Quite a number of these company owners are currently hiding in ...

Story of Yanxi Palace vs Ruyi's Royal Love In The Palace

Image
What is probably trending over half the globe. I think about 30%-40% of the world's population is currently totally enamored by two Chinese palace intrigue dramas as Ruyi's Royal Love In The Palace (airing on online platform Tencent Video) and The Story of Yanxi Palace (which has a cumulative 11.5 billion views since its release last month).  Not only in China were these megahits but across the overseas Chinese diaspora as well. Be it Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Australia, Canada, USA, etc... If you are not watching, ask yourself why. No right or wrong reasons here. Ruyi boasts a star-studded cast including Zhou Xun, Wallace Huo and Joan Chen.  It is based on a novel by Liu Lianzi and is a sequel to 2011's hit drama Empresses In The Palace, also based on the novel by Liu. It has drawn all the attention, and surprisingly both are based on the era of Emperor Qianlong Wang during the Qing dynasty. However, these are not pure historical pieces. The writers have tak...
