AT AXTIVO CAFE

Recently, I had an out-of-town work assignment at Kampung Anggerek Desa. Together with my 2 colleagues, one of them shows us  the way to AXTIFO CAFE which is located behind the Times Square Complex (currently under construction) which planned to be completed by July this year 2010. After lunch, we return to work around 1:30pm and continue to work until 5:00pm.

I had the privilege to meet the owner Ong N.H., who not only on the art of cooking but have good skill with Hand Craft art as well.

Looks so real! Handcrafted ants on the 'rock'

Simple tools used and its all about use of skill in art.

HAINAN ASSOCIATION KB HONOURS THE ELDERLY

The Hainan Association Kuala Belait paid tribute to the elderly by holding a dinner at the Meng Fang restaurant on Saturday (09-January-2010) evening. The audience was treated to entertainment and lucky draw.

In Brunei Darussalam, all the Chinese associations will be hosting celebrations for the elderly to honour their contributions. The celebrations could help instil in youths the culture of showing respect to senior citizens. This basically says that you can not be respected if you can not show respect. If we want young people to show respect to our elders, then we need to begin to expect and demand that our children begin respecting their elders from the time they can talk and walk.

The highlight of the celebration was the presentation of gold plaques to one of the four elderly persons older than 85 years of age.

Another special prize went to Chew Keng Kok for 25 years Long service with Hainan association (KB).
