Feeling nostalgic after years of using and driving this marque. Sold it for a bargain and cannot afford to maintain it anymore. The engine is dead since did not drive from the time MCO started in Malaysia and it was used for long-distance hauls from Penang to Kuala Lumpur and back.
Goodbye my car, and hope it will find a good owner.

On the 7th of July, people celebrated Happy World Chocolate day in commemoration of the tasty cocoa beans turned in to delicious chocolate bar, mini chocolates, cakes, syrup toppings, and such. See the video below. Warning! Don't get hungry or salivate after watchin. :)
World Chocolate Day, sometimes referred to as International Chocolate Day, or just Chocolate Day is an annual celebration of chocolate, occurring globally on July 7. The observance of World Chocolate Day date back to 2009,[6] and some suggest July 7, in particular, celebrates the introduction of chocolate to Europe in 1550.
Other chocolate day celebrations exist, such as National Chocolate Day in the United States on 28 October. The U.S. National Confectioners Association lists 13 September as International Chocolate Day, coinciding with the birth date of Milton S. Hershey (September 13, 1857). Ghana, the second-largest producer of cocoa, celebrates Chocolate Day on February 14. In Latvia, World Chocolate day is celebrated on July 11.
The U.S. National Confectioners Association lists four primary chocolate holidays on their calendar on Chocolate Day (July 7), two National Chocolate Days (October 28 and December 28), and International Chocolate Day (September 13), in addition to variants such as National Milk Chocolate Day, National White Chocolate Day, and National Cocoa Day.
Penang Georgetown Nasi Lemak at Macalister Road. Located diagonally opposite the junction of Lorong Abu Siti and Red Rock Hotel. The place is known as Macalister Signature Food Court at Macalister Road, Penang (MS Food Court).
GEORGE TOWN: A husband and wife took retrenchment in their stride and, after some hard work, are now whipping up nasi lemak that has become the talk of the town. Hana Batrisya Zainol, 23, was a flight attendant while her husband Muhammad Nur Azizee Roslan, 24, was a flight caterer.
They lost their jobs in the airline industry last November following travel curbs due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
However, they mastered their parents’ nasi lemak recipe, tweaking the sambal to suit current tastes.
“We got the sambal recipe from both our parents and improvised it to suit our tastebuds. We had the idea to start a business in January and not just sit at home.
“Luckily, our parents are supportive and they help us with the cooking and packing, ” said Hana Batrisya.
It is hard work where the couple and their parents have to wake up at 5.30am to prepare the ingredients.
“Our nasi lemak is prepared fresh every day. Initially, business was slow but things picked up through word of mouth, ” she said at her stall at a food court in Macalister Road here recently.
The couple now sells about 1,000 packets of nasi lemak a day, priced between RM1.50 and RM4.50 depending on extra ingredients like chicken, prawn, or fish.
Their standard nasi lemak is the classic Malaysian dish served with half a hard-boiled egg, deep-fried anchovies, and groundnuts, and with the gravy-like sambal spilled liberally over the rice.
Hana Batrisya has an advantage when it comes to building rapport with their customers as she is fluent in Malay, English, Mandarin, Hokkien, and Bahasa Indonesia.
“My father is Chinese. Hokkien is actually my mother tongue.
“Since my mother’s family is from Indonesia, I picked up Bahasa Indonesia from her, ” she added.
Business at the stall starts at 8am and there will often be a queue until the nasi lemak is gone, which is usually around 1pm.
Aquaculturist Bryan Teh, 44, came back for the dish the second time after trying it a few days ago.
“The nasi lemak is delicious and they are very generous with the sambal. For a person who likes spicy food, the sambal is the ‘bomb’.
“I’ve tried all of their specialties and decided to come back as the taste is good and the price is reasonable, ” he said.
Retired teacher Majemin Shafie, 66, said she decided to give the nasi lemak a try after her friend shared pictures of the dish with her.
“After seeing the photos, I wanted to try it instead of my usual breakfast of noodles. I ordered nasi lemak with fish and the price was reasonable, ” she said.
Construction site manager Lim Boon Chye, 52, saw the queue of nasi lemak buyers and decided to line up, too.
“I came to see a doctor nearby and saw the queue. I decided to take away a few packets for my family to try after getting recommendations from my friend, ” he said.
