My Parents


My parents are coming to the KL today. It has been 3 months. The very last time I got back to hometown was in September.

Hope they will enjoy their stay here for about 1 week.

Will figure out later where to to visit.

Sitiawan


Every time when I got back to hometown, must pass by this old shop. It is located in the center of Sitiawan. Just right beside of the traffic light. The balcony attracts me a lot and there is a barber shop at the ground floor.

I wanted to snap its photos for a long time ago until I really made it in March this year (my car just stopped at the right place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green).

To those who doesn't know about how the name of Sitiawan comes from, here is the history that I picked from Wikipedia:-

According to legend, Kampung Sungai Gajah Mati (literally: "the village by the river where elephants died") is the place where two large elephants drowned after one of them, overladen with tin ore, got stuck in the mud of the Dinding River at low tide. Efforts to help save the elephant were in vain and everyone gave up and left. However, the second elephant refused to budge and hung on to its friend, resulting in them drowning together in the rising tide. Thus the setia kawan name was derived.
