Melamine? Munchy's Biscuits Do Malaysia Proud?

-
There is an article in TheStar a while ago that says Munchy's Biscuits do us, the Malaysian proud. Also government had encourage consumer to go for local foods instead of imported items. How true is this? Well, based on the article in thestar, it sounds like Munchys is really a grand choice for us. Personally point of view, I like Munchys. I really like the biscuits because of its taste and packaging! Haha.... TheStar Article : http://biz.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2008/9/20/business/2076821&sec=busines Recently, I read another articles that mentions melamine is found in Munchy's biscuits. I was like.. WHAT????? I thought that it is assured that Malaysia made product is save from melamine?? Why is it that it is shown now our very own make Malaysia proud biscuit is being said to contains melamine in HK? HK article: http://biz.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2008/9/20/business/2076821&sec=busines So my question now, what biscuits is 100% free of melamine? Can we believe the advertisement, articles or whatsoever sources mentioning or promoting on the biscuits? Sources also say that melamine, when consume in small amount will not do any harm to our body. How true is this statement? I guess, there is no true or false in our modern society now. It all depends on our judgement and thinking. As for me, I think I'm not going to get any cookies or bisuits from any well known manufacturer. Or maybe, I should just stick to eating buns rather than biscuits. Manufacturer becomes richer day by day but us, the consumer suffers the impact all the time, either good or bad impact. Haaaaiiihhhzzzz... What has happen to our world now?

DD,
Seriously, I've never seen this munchy's before. hahaha! I can tell you, everything in this world is harmful to our life in this era. Take for example the air, the water and etc. Not only the melamine in biscuits. Just that, we don't know what's harmful unless something bad happened. So, it's actually your choice of to consume or not to consume. Just my point of view. hehe.

The First Confession - St. Mark's Church, Batu Kawa

Last Sunday is BF day of signing the "Book of Life" (I think that's what they call it). From the time table list, it is known as the "First Confession" day... Well, I translate directly the meaning since it's in BM. Hehehe... We arrived there at around 9am. Not many people there that time but there are people setting up stall to sell some food after the church service. BF told me that he had not had any breakfast yet and I nag him. Whahahaha! I had to sit separately from BF and dad since I'm not the godfather. Church service starts at 9.30pm. While waiting for the mass, I took pictures all around the church . Are they dreaming?? I took some picture when they signed the book. Well, I'm the only photographer that day. One thing different between St. Mark and my church is that during this kind of occasion is that in my church, there will be more than 1 photographers going all round taking photos or filming the whole occasion. I guess Father Lim like

Cozy Cafe, Jalan Song

Feeling hungry for something different on lunch time? Another place you can think of will be this restaurant - The Cozy Cafe. It is opposite One TJ with a black signboard. The environment is indeed cozy and warmth. Taste wise not bad but I can say that the service is a little weird. We order tea and they only permitted to give us 2 cup. Hhmmmm, I thought that we can just ask them to refill the pot wit hot water and share the tea amongst us. Guess this is how they earn more - limiting the number of sharing per tea pot. Oh well, got to just follow their rules. And this is what we ordered - sharing portion between a few of us. After all, ladies are small eaters. Mushroom soup with garlic bread Fish and chips Spaghetti Carbonara with hot dogs  Enjoy your lunch yea...

'Ma Li Chai'/'Mani Chai', also known as Cangkuk Manis

While googling for news about 'malichai', it turns out that I hardly get anything that I am looking for, so this triggers me to write something about this local vegetables that I believe, can only be found in Sarawak. 'Mali chai' is easily planted and grow quite fast as well. In fact, this is the only vegetables that I planted and it didn't fail on me! With its stick, just plant it on the ground and leave the rain and sun to takes care of the rest. Hahaha... 'Mali chai' is a word in hokkien that mostly use in Kuching. 'Chai' means vegetables. Hakka people called it 'su choi'. Well, this vege doesn't seems to have an English name. If we are to translate from BM to English, it definitely sounds weird - Sweet Hook. I think anyone who hear 'sweet hook' will not be keen to try it out.. So, how do 'mali chai' looks like? I've snap the photos of this vegetables at my garden. Actually, I've just harvest the vegetables few
