我的家乡-大山脚

刚认识的朋友:“Jovyin,你家住哪里?”
我:“槟城。
朋友:“有过海还是没有过海?”
我:“没有." 

当我说没有过海的时候,人家通常只会想到北海( Butterworth)。

 认识唱《月亮圆》的“山脚下男孩”吗?我跟他们一样,都是大山脚的孩子。

大山脚 是一个如果你从南部上来槟城一定会经过的地方。当你过了吉隆坡收费站一路踩油上槟城的话,大山脚就是你到槟威大桥前要停下来的收费站。

 过了收费站,你的左边会看到一座山,感觉很远似的。。。我的家就在那座山的下面。 
 顾名思义,大山脚的名字也是用这座山来命名的。
而这座山的马来名叫“Cherok Tokun". 

 大山脚也是拿督李宗伟还有公正党-安华的家乡。

你的右边就是auto-city 汽车城了。这里除了很多间名贵汽车show room 还有银行,高级餐厅,夜总会。。。这个是改变了大山脚孩子的生活方式,这里是我们爱游荡的地方。我们喜欢在这里聚会,来这里的地方clubbing,喝酒,庆祝生日。。。

 这个地方是伯公庙,这里的人都用福建或潮州话称它为 “伯公前”。这里是大山脚的旺区,每一天甚至是入夜了这里都车水马龙。 晚上的时候这里更是有很多东西吃。
这座庙建于1886年,大山脚的发展也是从这里开始,这里附近经营着很多华人开的商店。

大山脚的著名建筑莫过于就是这一间圣安纳天主教堂了(st anne church),建于1888

由于教堂无法容纳太多的信徒,在2000年,新教堂就起在旧教堂旁边。它是大马最大的天主教堂。
每一年七月圣安纳诞的时候,这里有40,000 – 60,000来东南亚各地的信徒前来朝圣。

 在大山脚,summit hotel是这里的地标,它算是大山脚最高的建筑物了。

接下来就是这个市政府大厦了。这个地方叫bandar perda,有点像sunway 这样。所有政府部门都在这里,警察局,消防局,住宅还有商店也在这里,而且规模不小哦。
大山脚Jusco也是在这里的。

在大山脚还有一个风景很美的地方,那就是孟光水坝了。 每天早上和傍晚会有很多人在这里跑步, 而且有很多人在这里拍照哦。

大山脚也是跟槟岛一样,是一个充满美食的地方,下次再一一介绍。

下次经过大山脚时,别忘了停下来拜访一下这个小镇哦!

Stop Child Abuse (Chinese Edition)

每当提起儿童虐待案,我的脑海总会想起“黄盈瀛”这个名字,还有她可爱的样子。身为大马人的你还记得20077月轰动全马的三岁女童被虐死的事情吗?? 
当年年仅三岁的小盈瀛就是被丧尽天良的母亲男友虐待至死, 甚至还被肢解然后毁尸灭迹!那时大家都在议论纷纷这件事情, 都在批评男嫌犯和小盈瀛的妈妈。

可是三年过去了,为什么国内外还是不断发生儿童虐待案件呢??

 在大马,最常见到的就是身体虐。 很多时候,那些手无寸铁的小孩都是满身瘀青,烧烫伤、咬痕、擦伤、挫伤、头部外伤。。。每一个都让人看了触目惊心。 

在今年七月,同样有一个 5岁女童疑被父亲虐死,死者身上有多处瘀青,常被人虐打,甚至曾被香烟头灼伤。

同样在今年七月,一个父亲在醉酒后用铁链鞭打自己的女儿而被告发。

到底这些孩子得罪他们什么??


孩子是上天为我们带来的天使,他们就像幼苗一样需要我们的关怀,照顾和疼爱,才能茁壮成长。 

可是往往把这些孩子推入地狱的却是他们的父母,家人或者亲人,让他们成为折翼的天使。很多时候,虐待孩子的都是父母,继父,母亲男友,保姆。。。

身为孩子的父母不是应该好好护自己的孩子吗?为什么有些父母甚至还为了保护施虐者而隐瞒自己孩子被虐待的事实??

这短短文章中,我指出的儿童虐待案只是冰山一角, 在全国各角落还有世界各的虐待案也从来没有停止过。

希望透过这片文章能提高大家的醒觉,好好保护身边的每个儿童,不管他是不是你的亲人,都要多加留意他。 

儿童是社会的幼苗,身为社会人士的我们有责任保护每一颗幼苗,不要抱着事不关己的心态,或是觉得那是人家家务事而不插手。

身为父母的,请记住孩子是上天为你带来的天使,请务必好好保护他!

举起你的手,停止儿童虐待!

实兆远-红酒面线

在实兆远,我们大伙当然不会错过当地另一样 福州- 红酒面线



红酒面线俗称红糟鸡面线 所谓的“红酒”是用糯米喝酒饼酿制而成的。红酒面线是福州人传统佳节和喜庆节日必吃的传统菜肴,是用细长的面线和自酿的紅酒,加入鸡肉烹煮而成,有祝福健康长寿的意思。

我们当天在这一间北京海鲜酒家享用了人生中第一口的红酒面线。听说这一间酒楼的红酒面线是最好吃的,那味道很好,不像有些人会把红酒面线煮到酸酸的。那汤头有酒精味,味道恰恰好,不会太淡,也不会太浓,保证你喝了还想再喝。至于鸡肉,因为吸入了红酒,所以肉质也带有红酒的味道,赞!

在这里要谢谢我们在那边的导游- Cat和她的妈妈。谢谢她的妈妈请我们吃红酒面线。


如果你第一次品尝红酒面线可是却怕选错地方,北京海鲜酒楼可以成为你的首选!而且它很靠近卖光饼的档口,建议你吃完红酒面线再去吃一个光饼。

这就是北京海鲜酒家的地址了:

实兆远 - 光饼


自从认识了来自实兆远(sitiawan)的朋友后,我就一直听闻一种叫“kong piang” 的食物很好吃,现在终于让我尝试到全sitiawan最好吃的“kong piang”了 -  
曾家光饼店。。
 
“kong piang”是福州话,华语叫光饼, 在占大多数福州人的sitiawan 光饼是那边闻名的小食。。在 曾家光饼店可以吃到两种口味的光饼,一个是葱头的, 一个是叉烧的。很可惜,那一天我们去到的时候无缘吃到叉烧光饼。不爱吃葱头的人不要皱眉哦,因为我们吃的光饼可是一点葱头味都没有哦。

 
听当地人说,有时遇到假日,这里是充满人潮,有时你有钱也买不到,因为有些人买的是算百粒的。话说回来,光饼在新鲜出炉的时候是最好吃了,那味道和那香脆的皮是你无抗拒的。
现在的人现在为图省事,多半改用电烘箱烤了,但是今天我看到的是用木炭烘炉。 制造光饼的过程我不懂,但是当我靠近烘炉的时候,我真的很佩服每天在那边工作的人,因为那边的温度是在太高了。


如果有缘去到sitiawan,千万不要错过“kong piang这个小食哦!

A big hand to all 12 models that did their performance very well because the cloths that they wear are not comfortable at all but they still need to stand under the hot sun, smiling with everyone during photo taking session. They are so called PROFESSIONAL.

I do enjoy the campaign so much as i stay there almost 4 hours and I learn  a lot. I wish my PR campaign for next year will success like theirs.
