  • FATHER'S DAY DINNER.

    My father passed away two months ago, so this father's day dinner
    without him was a very low key affair.Normally we would have an
    eight course Chinese dinner set to honor him each year.
    This year, father's day was celebrated with my mother, my children,
    my younger brother Meng and his family and my sister Shirley and her family.
    We ordered some dishes to go with our piping hot white fragrant rice.


    Aquarium filled with live fishes.



    Family members.


    Mung bean noodle cooked with Chinese white cabbage with preserved Beancurd.


    Deep fried Tofu in Soy sauce topped with deep fried dried shrimps.


    Boiled Sea prawns.

    Braised Duck with tangy tamarind juice and Chinese Mustard green.


    Steamed Grass Carp garnished with deep fried shallots and coriander leaves.

  • MOTHER OF MINE.

    It has been a week since my father passed away,
    and for most of us, we can still feel that he is still
    around watching over us.
    My mother is still in a bit state of depression, too scare
    to sleep in the same room which she shared with my father.
    Last weekend, we have the whole gang over to console
    and keep her company.
    We bought a queen sized bed to replaced the king sized
    one and for a change, my wife repainted her room
    with a soothing light green color. 
    The room's furniture were rearranged but an oil painting
    of them in their fine wedding attire and a photo of my father
    superimposed with the well muscled body of
    Arnold Schwarzenegger were left intact.



    I pray and hope that my mother can get over this difficult phase as soon as possible.

  • AN EULOGY FOR MY FATHER.

    My father was a man that was kind, friendly and generous.
    He led a fulfilling life until Depression and the big C came into his life.
    He loved all of us equally in his heart,
    He was always there in our time of needs ( for monetary and advice),
    Some of you might not have known my father the way that i did,
    He was a super hero in my eyes,
    Nothing is impossible to him,
    He made sure that all his family was taken care of no matter what,
    He passed away peacefully at 6.11 a.m on 10th of April 2009,
    which was the 15th day of the Chinese Lunar calendar and
    Good Friday of the English calendar,

    He was laid to rest on 12th of April 2009 at the Nilai Memorial Park.

    He left us with one big happy family-three wives-twelve children and
    a lot of grandchildren (see photo),



     "Dear Father may your soul rest in peace"
