14th Malaysia general election: 9th May, 2018. #ge14malaysia, #pru14malaysia, #jomundi, #sprmalaysia, #davidlim, #GE14keathwa, #undi509



It seems that there will be a tight race for this General Election (GE14 or PRU14).  We are not going back for voting as we just returned from our holiday in Malaysia two months ago.  Besides that, our international passport is expiring and need renewal.

We pray for the best to Malaysia; regards of the polling result, things will become better.

Touched down at my hometown, Alor Setar, Kedah

10th March, 2018

Finally, touched down in my hometown, my own town....(Remember the song by Bruce Springsteen, the Boss?).

Jonas Lim, my nephew picked me up from the Alor Setar local airport.  We went straight to have breakfast at Keat Hwa Old Bot’s Assiciate Building, Jalan Ambar, Teluk Wanjah.

This time around, the weather isn’t that bad and it was not muggy.

For this trip, Jonas was the only family member I notified as I want to surprise everyone!
