Peaceful Small Town
Born, raised and went to school in KK. Still balik kampung to visit my parents. Love the sceneries of sea and paddy field behind my parent's house. Just went back last 1st May Holiday. The area is quite busy nowadays. Wish the area did not change; used to be peaceful and serene. I'm sure you all remember Sian Chooi Cinema; used to screen movies. I watched my first movie there KING KONG( now no more; turned into warung). Wish I could stay there but Big City Life is what i prefer most.
