Best in Klang!

Best Satay &
Nasi Lemak in our Town

After eating around and seeking for 'that perfect' old fashioned Satay, we have decided that the Best (in our humble opinion) in Klang is at "Uncle Satay". They are located in front of the flyover on Persiaran Raja Muda Musa, the newly widened highway towards Port Klang.
We have been patronising this shop for the last 4 years.

The main reason for our choice is that the owner actually care for their customers. They ensures that the food they serve is 'perfect'. The satay is done well, really cooked and not over burnt.
The kuah (gravy) is Kajang Style and one can add extra 'oomph' if you like it chilli hot! With da on goings in our political scene after PP P44, one got to add extra chillies!!!!!!!
The chicken, beef and lamb are well marinated too and the portion of the meat is generous.
Unlike the rest of the 'Klang' styled satay which is towards the 'javanese' type, this is truly the one we are used to.

Their Nasi Lemak is superb and the Auntie only serves this during dinner time and in limited quantity too. Go there around 6.30pm and you can see her pack into small bungkus.
It would be all gone by 8pm! We packed a dozen for the Olympic closing ceremony on TV last week! Yummy!

The other similar satay is of course the (franchised) Hj Samuri Kajang Satay (located in Bukit Tinggi) Klang. We have totally given them up due to its 'arrogance/stuck up/eat, eat,dowan? get lost' attitude. This happened all the time!Try asking for more gravy!!!!!!!!

Hj. Sam's original store in Kajang is always still da best. It used to be our favourite besides the oldie Restoran Malaysia. (read...there in Kajang only). The ones found all over the country are pure rubbish! We are always 'lucky' to get the 'spoils' such as being over burnt. Not over-done mind you, but burnt ala carbonised but still raw and cold on the insides! It was supposed to be headed to the garbage bin but I guess, someone have pay for it. It might well be a 'suckered' customer! One sure get cancer this way.

If this is Australia, the outlet will be closed quick, quick!!!! It is a health hazzard! Just where are the health inspectors? "Franchising my boy,....you'd got to monitor 'em like crazy ....they can make you rich or they can kill ya!..."Oh nevermind...close one eye! Malaysia Boleh!

Sorry....gone off track for a while but have to explain why Uncle Satay is still our choice. Moreover, Uncle Satay uses the traditional charcoal fire unlike Hj Sam's.

Satay anyone?

Received this joke.
It is really Funny.


Apologies! Not intended to make fun of anybody. Not Thais nor any Sinkaporeans.

Censorship?

MCMC! Such childishness!

As the world goes Forward especially after the successful (spiritually, mentally and physically) Olympic Games in Beijing, and also after our PP P44 by-elections, the Multimedia Authority of Malaysia is set to cause confusions on our internet. By banning some sites because of un-agreeable opinions and views, we are not FREE to say anything how we feel anymore. Freedom IS Dead. It was supposed to be free of interference. Free of Censorship and Control.

IF one crosses the line, just take him to Court. Why the BAN?

Malaysia, the World IS watching!

Anyway, at Birds Talking, we go Talk Birds, OK?
See our new DIY Bird Bath. Maybe we should design a new DIY Bird Bath for each of those 'COCKY' loser politicians to wash their tiny brains in.

Bird Bath Up!

Our DIY Bird Bath is Completed
and Running!

On the upper left, is our DIY Nectar Bird Feeder.

Bought flower pots to mix and match from Lorong Hijau in Sg. Buloh, PJ. It took us four solid hours looking for matching shapes and sizes from various shops!
This is to set up our Bird Bath which is also a water feature.

After glueing up the connecting flexible hose both on the bottom and
on the insides,
and to be connected to a recycled mini-aquarium filter pump, (new one costs about RM12) and is also fixed to an electrical timer (RM9) which is set for 7am till 7pm.
We set it up using a water leveller to adjust the water drop effect.
These five pots cost us RM120 total.
As compared to the one we actually planned to buy (specially made with sand stone) costs a whopping RM680!! Heck! It is so damned commercialised these days.

The bag of washed pebbles cost RM12. It is needed to adjust the depth of the lower section in case some birds do not like deeper waters.
The top water spray can be also adjusted by adding these pebbles so as not to scare the birds.
The first visitors were our resident Magpies who just dashed onto the top part and started drinking from it. Later, one of them took a splashy bath!
The next day, the Sunbirds came and took a sip. As of today, the girl Sunbird is taking strips of coconut fibres off my orchid plantings to, what I suspect, build a nest!!!! The male fellow is busy sipping nectar and cleaning himself.

All these happening under the watchful eyes of a mummy Merbuk tending to her two babies on her nest built on my wall fan directly above!
This is good! The birds are happy!

Wow!
This is a new visitor to our home !
We have not seen it here before. Wondered why?
The bluish color with its long tail is nice. Although he is not the same bird in the picture, is he watching for insects at our new nectar feeder below?

New Bins...update

New Swarovski EL 10x42

Here are some latest infomation from fellow birders who have seen and touched the newies ahead of us here in Malaysia. It is going to look like we may only see the daylight of these binoculars sometime next year! A Birder was at the 2008 British Birdwatching Fair last week.

Isn't This Enough?

Received this bloody note at our postbox in the office yesterday!

Just what is all this?

Matchmaking a partner for my neighbour's Bitch? or my cousin's Dog? Cat? Maid? Spinster? Divorcee? Is this legal? Are we not already over-populated or are we in a hurry to populate our dear Country to the brim until we do not have enough rice and clean water? Are we also trying to fill up all those new vacant houses which were also built with these kinda of foreign workers?

Don't we have enough of Banggas?Indons?Myanmars?ChinaDolls?........Just what da Hell are the Authorities doing?

Can anyone see this kinda ads. in Singapore? Australia? Please WAKE UP lah, Jabatan Immegreshen? Ministers? Bodohwee?

As Citizens, we are very worried about this kinda things. We ask you to help us rid the un-necessary influx of these people who, in their own country cannot even handle their own problems. We need to feel safe. Too much rapes, robberies, Con jobs, Health problems at eateries and even Murders!

With phone numbers printed so boldly on the leaflet, just ACT!!!

Instead of spending so much time & activity around Anwar's Backside!!!!!!

Ooops! Wrong Bird!!

A Lovely picture of a
Hummingbird on a Billboard Advertisment.

Why do the project people in the haste to do their job quickly, do not really check what their Advertising Guys' concept is prior to approval? Ignorance on the part of the Artist? the Art Director?

This huge Billboard is located in Jalan Banting, Klang before reaching Jusco shows a picture of a Hummingbird, idicating what to expect when one buys this property. Is there a guarantee that a Hummingbird would drop by? What if not? Do we get our money back? Say RM800,00.00 to RM1 million for that house? Neh!!!!!Pooodah!
You see, the picture featuring this hummer is not correct. Malaysia do not have Hummingbirds. Not even in Singapore, Thailand, India, Indonesia, European Union, Japan, China, Australia, Africa, Middle East, Russia..............
Another huge billboard is on the highway leading to the KLIA. Wondering what the learned would say, since these houses are intended for the higher income group. Wouldn't this be classified as false advertising? In Amerlika, one can get sued till his pants drop in cases like this!

Still wondering what has happened to the massive so called "Gold Coast" project which is located on a river mouth near Tanjung Sepat? Are we to expect miles of 'golden-coastal sandy beaches'?Or miles of mud flats?

Come on lah, let us all look ahead and aim for better quality and truth ok? Money is not everything. The World is watching us.
