English Teacher


On a long bus ride, I once met an English teacher. We talked about language and communication. She shared how she teaches her children: 'Keep it simple, unless you're making art.'

An English teacher's advice to encourage straightforward messages makes sense. Using heavy words might hinder rather than help. Clarity and simplicity often connect better and convey messages effectively.

Many writers aim for simplicity to reach wider audiences and ensure better understanding.

Her words stuck with me, even after 15 years. They guide how I communicate. Simple but powerful advice from a chance encounter.

Coffee, Tea or >>> Beer?


Discovering that each person’s morning ritual is as unique as their fingerprint is truly intriguing. While many opt for a steaming cup of coffee, I found my morning solace in something unexpected - a can of beer. It might seem unconventional, but just as coffee lovers swear by their morning brew, I found comfort in this quirky choice.

Somehow, my body seemed to welcome the subtle presence of alcohol in the morning, offering a sense of ease that kickstarted my day. It’s fascinating how our bodies respond differently to various elements. We all have our secret recipe for that perfect morning boost, whether it's a caffeine jolt or an unconventional choice like mine.

Embracing our individual preferences and understanding that what works for one might not work for another is what makes our morning rituals so personal and unique. It’s a reminder that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to starting the day, and that's the beauty of our diverse routines.

Paper



I have a habit of not simply throwing papers without fully utilizing them. This includes keeping printed receipts or any paper with space to write, as I find them useful for notes or other purposes.

It's important to realize how fortunate we are in this era. Paper was once an expensive commodity accessible only to a privileged few. Now, is within reach for nearly everyone. This accessibility has empowered many more individuals to engage with writing and documentation, a luxury unimaginable in the past.

There is a reason why I don't believe in many things written a few hundred to thousand years ago. The accessibility of paper gives limitations to historical records. Many ancient writings, spanning centuries or millennia, primarily represent the perspectives of a select few with the power and fortune to write. And those may be dishonest, manipulative and crooks. Consequently, 'History' often overlooks the voices of the bottom class, unfortunate, illiterate and undereducated masses, failing to capture the diversity of experiences and viewpoints.

It stands proudly as a place of worship for the island's Muslim community and welcomes all to admire its grandeur.

Continuing along this street, you'll soon arrive at the Sri Mahamariamman Temple, a magnificent Hindu temple dedicated to the goddess Mariamman. Its vivid colours, intricate sculptures, and elaborate artwork provide a visual feast for the eyes. The temple's presence speaks to the deep-rooted traditions of Penang's Hindu community and their devotion to their faith.

Nasi Kandar

 


Nasi kandar is a meal featuring steamed rice which can either be plain or mildly flavoured. It is served with a variety of curries and side dishes.

The rice is usually topped with eggs, meats and vegetables. The selection has expanded a lot in comparison to the old times. Now it includes fish, okra, quails prepared in herbs and spices, sambal udang (chilli prawns), Sotong (squid), cabbage, lamb and mutton, and a lot more. 

After that, all types of curries are poured over the rice and you can request a larger amount of it. This is known 'kuah banjir' (flooding) by the locals. You can ask for it to be served separately if you don't want the rice to be too wet. Either way, this helps open up a palette of flavours thus giving you a happy eating experience. 

A must in Penang. 

Roti Canai




Roti Canai is a beloved Malaysian dish known for its versatility.

It's a type of flatbread that's crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. This delightful bread can be served with various accompaniments, from dhal (lentil curry) to meat curries, fish curries or vegan that has potato, tomato, long bean etc. 

It's a food for all, and a must-try for anyone visiting the country. Roti Canai was voted the best bread in 2023. Enjoy exploring the cultural significance and culinary delights of Roti Canai!

Hokkien Mee



Penang Hokkien Mee is a must-try when you visit Penang. But hold on, it's not the same Hokkien Mee you might find in Kuala Lumpur or Johor. It's a whole different ballgame.

First things first, let's dive into the broth. In Penang, our Hokkien Mee is all about those prawns. The broth special is made by simmering prawn heads, shells, and a touch of pork bone. It's got this slightly sweet, rich flavour, and it flaunts a vibrant orange-red hue, thanks to some chilli paste. Now, in other places like KL, Hokkien Mee takes a different path with a dark soy sauce-based sauce.

Next up, let's talk noodles. Penang's Hokkien Mee is a medley of yellow egg noodles, rice vermicelli, or even instant ramen. These noodles soak up that amazing prawn broth and trust me, it's a flavour explosion. In other regions, they typically roll with thick yellow noodles, which give you a completely different texture and taste.

And now, the toppings and condiments. In Penang, we load up on prawns (yes, again), throw in some hard-boiled eggs, a bit of water spinach (we call it 'kangkung'), bean sprouts (we love our 'taugeh'), pork slices, and a sprinkle of crispy fried shallots. Oh, and we can't forget that extra punch of excitement from some spicy sambal paste. As for garnishes, well, it can vary, and some places might charge extra for 'em.

So, Penang Hokkien Mee is like a prawn party in a bowl. In other regions, it's more about frying the noodles and bathing them in savoury soy sauce flavours.

Penang Hokkien Mee, with its prawn-powered broth and its unique combo of noodles, prawns, and toppings, proudly represents the island's culinary flair.

Don't leave Penang without trying it! 

 

Char Koay Teow, Penang

 


Char Koay Teow is a beloved Penang street food! That's a must-try when visiting the island! This delectable dish is a flavorful stir-fried noodle. It's a good blend of flavours and textures, featuring Koay Teow (flat rice noodles) cooked with various ingredients such as prawns, cockles, Chinese lap cheong sausage, eggs, bean sprouts, and chives.

Penang Char Koay Teow is just so different when it is cooked by the locals. The magic of Char Koay Teow lies in the wok's sizzling heat, which imparts a smoky, charred aroma to the dish. It's cooked with a savoury sauce that typically includes soy sauce, chilli paste, and other seasonings, giving it a delectable umami taste with a hint of spiciness. The result is a plate of noodles that's both slightly sweet and spicy, with a rich, smoky flavour.

This iconic Penang dish is typically served on a banana leaf, adding a rustic touch to the presentation. It's often garnished with a sprinkle of fresh bean sprouts and chives, further enhancing the dish's texture and crunch. You should consider never visiting Penang if you never try Char Koay Teow. It is a testament to the culinary artistry of Penang and is a must-try for food enthusiasts looking to explore the island's vibrant street food scene.

Try it! 

Penang Laksa

 



Penang Laksa is undeniably a unique and flavorful delight.

What sets Penang Laksa apart from the numerous other types of laksa found across Malaysia is its distinctive taste and preparation. Unlike the creamy, coconut milk-based laksas you might find in other regions, Penang Laksa is special. Some adore it for its bold flavours, while others find fault with its strong seafood aroma.

The heart of Penang Laksa lies in its fragrant fish-based broth, expertly infused with a medley of aromatic herbs and spices, including ginger flower (curry flower), tamarind, lemongrass, galangal, and chillies. This creates a harmonious balance of tanginess, spiciness, and umami richness that forms the base for the dish's unforgettable flavour.

Penang Laksa typically features thick rice vermicelli, providing a satisfyingly chewy texture that complements the broth perfectly. Toppings may vary, but the traditional version includes flaked mackerel fish, cucumber slices, onions, pineapple, and mint leaves, adding layers of flavour and texture to the dish.

Laksa is not complete without mentioning the soul of it, Shrimp paste (heh ko)! This elevates the dish to new heights, offering a symphony of contrasting flavours that dance on your palate.

While there are many versions of Penang Laksa throughout the state, each with its unique twist, it's a rare sight to find a Penangite who refuses to savour a bowl of Laksa. The exception might be vegetarians due to their dietary restrictions.

With all its distinct qualities, Penang Laksa is undeniably a must-try dish when you visit this food haven.

Steam, Hotpot



Steamboat, also known as "hot pot" is a beloved communal dining experience that brings friends and family together around a bubbling pot. This eating tradition has its roots in Chinese cuisine but has been lovingly embraced and adapted in Malaysia.

Steamboat has a lot of broth selection, ranging from clear and mild to spicy and fiery. Common choices include a clear chicken or pork broth, a fiery tom yam broth, or even a rich and savoury herbal broth. 

Diners select an assortment of fresh ingredients such as thinly sliced meats (beef, chicken, or seafood), an array of vegetables, mushrooms, tofu, and various fish balls. These ingredients are then cooked in the communal pot, everyone throws in their favourite food and cooks to their desired level of doneness.

What makes Malaysian steamboat particularly unique is the variety of dipping sauces that accompany the meal. From the classic peanut sauce to tangy and spicy sambal, diners can customize their sauces to match their taste preferences.

The dining process encourages a leisurely pace. It is a time to socialise, has conversations, enjoy food and best with some wine.  

The experience of a Malaysian-style steamboat is not just about the delicious food; it's about the shared experience, the laughter, and the joy of cooking and eating together. It's a delightful way to bond with loved ones over a steaming pot of goodness.

Loh Mee

 



Lor Mee or Loh Mee is a type of hawker food. One of my favourite dishes in Penang. It's made with noodles in a thick, sticky broth cooked from tapioca flour and egg. The dish typically includes egg noodles, vermicelli, bean sprouts, boiled egg slices, and a choice of either pork or chicken slices, depending on what the hawker offers. It's topped with crispy fried onions.

You can customize the spiciness by adding chilli and vinegar garlic paste, usually, they are given in a spoon on the side. 
Some stalls also offer an extra side dish, braised chicken feet which you can buy separately. This is the favourite among the Chinese community.

This is a must-try dish in Penang, and it's not easy to find it outside of Penang.



Wonton Noodles, Wan Tan Mee


 

Wonton noodles, a popular dish in many parts of Asia, can come in different variations, but the core ingredients often remain the same. 

The wontons, little pockets stuffed with a mix of minced meat, prawns, chives, and some seasonings. They're usually paired with thin noodles, giving you a great mix of textures and flavours. Some stores will give you an add-on of Char Siew or Fish balls.

You can enjoy this dish in different ways. In Malaysia, it is more common to serve it dry with a special secret sauce, while others offer it in a tasty broth. Each shop has its own unique recipe for the sauce.

You can find wonton noodles all across Asia, especially in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Malaysia. The Penang version, which has a slightly salty and savoury taste, is my favourite.

So, whether you call it Wan Tan Mee or wanton noodles, just enjoy the deliciousness of this classic dish.

Rethinking Education: Beyond Grades to True Learning

 


In many educational systems worldwide, the examination system often takes centre stage, prioritizing grades over the fundamental goals of education. While grades and assessments serve an essential role in evaluating progress, they should not overshadow the larger objectives of acquiring knowledge, understanding concepts, and applying that knowledge effectively.

Genuine learning transcends the mere memorization of facts for exams. It encompasses critical thinking, problem-solving, and the practical application of knowledge in real-world scenarios.

Progressive educational philosophies advocate for a holistic approach to learning, emphasizing the development of critical thinking skills, nurturing creativity, and fostering a deeper understanding of subjects. These approaches often steer away from overemphasis on standardized testing, focusing instead on project-based learning, collaborative endeavours, and the cultivation of practical skills.

An ideal education system finds a balance between assessment and kindling a genuine passion for learning. It encourages students to explore, ask questions, and think critically, ultimately nurturing a lifelong dedication to knowledge and personal growth.

Char Hor Fun, Tho Yuen Penang

 



In the 1960s/70s, Tho Yuen on Campbell Street in Penang was famous for its Hainanese chicken rice. The history of this dish dates back to the 1930s when Foo Say Chee, a true-blue Hainanese chef, served the tastiest Hainanese chicken rice. His restaurant, originally called Chip Seng, was taken over by Tho Yuen in the late '70s.

Eight years ago, Tho Yuen stopped serving Hainanese chicken rice, marking the end of this iconic dish on Campbell Street. The Leong family, who now runs the restaurant, offers a variety of Cantonese dishes and noodles.

Sar hor fun, a thick rice noodle originating from Guangzhou, is a popular dish in Penang, traditionally eaten for supper but now enjoyed throughout the day. It's often paired with rice vermicelli. The name "char hor fun" is also used interchangeably with "sar hor fun" due to the influence of the Hokkien population in Penang.

This shift in dietary habits reflects evolving tastes among Malaysian diners.

You don't have to be the best, you only need to learn how to handle your worst time

We often think that to succeed in life, we must be the best at everything we do. From our academic and professional pursuits to our personal relationships, we strive to achieve perfection in every aspect of our lives. However, the reality is that success does not necessarily require us to be the best. Instead, it requires us to learn how to handle our worst times and bounce back from setbacks.


Learning to handle our worst times can be a difficult and challenging process. It requires us to develop a range of skills, including resilience, perseverance, and a positive attitude. Resilience is the ability to recover from setbacks and bounce back from adversity. Perseverance is the willingness to keep working towards our goals even when things get tough, while a positive attitude can help us maintain a sense of hope and optimism even during difficult times.


One example of someone who has learned to handle their worst times is Oprah Winfrey. Oprah grew up in poverty and faced many challenges throughout her life, including being the victim of abuse and struggling with her weight. However, she did not let these setbacks define her. Instead, she developed the skills and mindset needed to overcome adversity and achieve success.


Another example is J.K. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series. Rowling faced numerous rejections before her manuscript was finally accepted for publication. However, she did not give up on her dreams. Instead, she persevered and continued to work on her writing, eventually becoming one of the most successful authors of all time.


These examples demonstrate that success is not just about being the best, but about learning how to handle your worst times. By developing resilience, perseverance, and a positive attitude, you can overcome setbacks and achieve your goals, no matter how difficult the journey may be.


You don't have to be the best, you only need to learn how to handle your worst time. It is a powerful reminder that success is not just about talent or skill, but also about resilience and perseverance. By learning to handle your worst times, you can develop the skills and mindset needed to overcome obstacles and achieve your goals, even in the face of adversity. So, don't be afraid to fail, but embrace it as an opportunity to learn and grow. Remember, the road to success is not always easy, but with the right attitude and mindset, you can overcome any challenge that comes your way.

Real Success.

Social Media, Relationship.

Just wanted to share a friendly advice about something I've noticed on social media.

I totally get that taking sweet photos with your significant other is a great way to capture memories. But but but, a lot of couples who share tons of these types of photos on social media end up having relationship issues?

I'm not trying to say it's bad to share, but I just think it's worth considering, not to share so much.

Anyway, I'm not trying to preach or anything, Again just some friendly advice. At the end of the day, what really matters is the love we share in the present, and the memories we create together.

Power and Greed

 Power and Greed


Since they can trigger the reward regions in our brains and give us a sense of fulfilment and accomplishment, greed and power have the ability to seduce humans. Unchecked greed and the desire for power, however, can result in unethical behaviour, harm to others, and a loss of perspective on what matters most in life.

The appeal of greed and power can also be influenced by our social and cultural contexts. Those who gain material prosperity and position are praised and admired in various communities because they are highly appreciated. This might put pressure on a person to achieve these ambitions, even at the price of their relationships and personal values.

Nevertheless, each of us individually

Culture of Handshake

 The practice of shaking hands has been around for thousands of years and has evolved over time. One theory suggests that it originated as a way to show that you were not holding a weapon, as shaking hands requires both parties to extend their right hand, leaving their weapon arm vulnerable.


Another theory suggests that the handshake began as a way to convey trust between two parties. By shaking hands, people would show that they were willing to expose themselves to each other and were trustworthy.


In many cultures, the handshake has become a universal greeting and a sign of respect. It is often used in business settings as a way to seal a deal or as a formal introduction between two parties.

Why is their two pair of chopstick put on a table when we order asian food?

 In Asian cultures, chopsticks are the traditional utensils used for eating. When you order Asian food, you might notice that two pairs of chopsticks are placed on the table. This is typically done as a hygiene practice to ensure that guests have a fresh pair of chopsticks to use during their meal.

The first pair of chopsticks is used to serve food from shared plates or dishes. This is known as the "public" or "common" chopsticks. Guests use these chopsticks to pick up food from the shared dishes and place it on their own plate or bowl. Once the food has been served, the public chopsticks are returned to the shared dish.

The second pair of chopsticks is meant for personal use only and is known as the "private" chopsticks. Guests use these chopsticks to eat their individual portion of food. This helps to prevent the spread of germs and disease from person to person. Is widely practised after covid 19. 

Now even have personal share chopsticks.

What is law?

The more I understand the law, the more I know how to violate it. And that is a winning edge.

Knowledge of the law is often associated with the wealthy and powerful. This is because they often have access to better legal representation and resources that can help them navigate the legal system more effectively. As a result, they may be able to use the law to their advantage and put pressure on those who are less privileged.

I know the law can also be empowering for individuals who may be marginalized or disadvantaged by understanding their legal rights and the laws that protect them, they may be able to advocate for themselves and protect their interests. In this way, knowledge of the law can be a tool for social justice and equality.

Still the rich win. It is all about games on a bigger stage.
