MY FIRST TRIP TO KELANTAN by Malay Cowboy - PART 3 Episode: 7 PEOPLES COMPRESSED INSIDE PROTON GEN-2 (what a marvelous car!)


One night after we struggle to set up the franchise bookshop as soon as possible; i heard about Ustazah Aslina and Sister Layla plan want to go to Wakaf Che Yeh.
Wakaf what? Is that place likes Tanah Wakaf? Heheheee... No lah!


That is the place where all hawkers make small bussinesses. If in KL, similar of Pasar Malam Jalan T.A.R. They said Tanty will give them a ride. Before forget, Tanti is youngest sister of Puan Rita (The Franchise Owner). Tanty want to fetch her hubby from Airport and Wakaf Che Yeh is the same way she will used. So what i gonna do? Stay with the F1 who very concentrated with his important work? Even Faisal Wong were not around. So i decided to join Sister Layla, Ustazah Aslina Bidadari and Tanty. From the start i thought only us will going there.

Then after Tanty come with her Gen-2 car, i also saw Salima and Muna at the back seater. Whooah can fit or not? Just kasi hantam saja lah! Because Tanty said she will drop us to WCY, then fetch her hubby from Airport after that send all of them go back directly before turn back again to give us a ride. Thanks a lots for the kindness!

Then Tanty just drop 3 of us at side of road nearest Wakaf Che Yeh. Ooo... so this is Wakaf Che Yeh who are very famous and usually talked by tourist whose visit Kelantan. Same famous like Pasar Khadijah in centre of Kota Bahru. Tanty go away...only leave a smoke of Gen-2 unleaded RON 95.

I just followed Sister Layla & Ustazah Aslina Bidadari. For the first the just make a window shopping. They drop by at stall which sell a many variety of scarf. Looked like both of them become histeria because the price is quite cheap and reasonable. I just gave them moral support as bona fide. 100% sincererity as long it dont involved my money. They face looked very keen on and cherish. Thats maybe because i didnt much of complaints.

Wakaf Che Yeh Night Market is similar to Pasar Malam Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman in KL. There are too many things have been sell here. From Levi’s imitation genuine leather wallet, many type of scarfs to Remote control toy cars. Very interesting. One time, there is had one hawker just try to burnt his wallet use his lighter, just to show me the quality of his genuine leather wallet despite its merely imitation. But i m not buy that one.

Suddenly Sister Layla saw something is very cacthy with her eyes. At the crossroad, one shop had sell very cheap comforter. We just go there. I try to bargain as cheap as i can get. After several beg the retail assistant gave us a good price. Alhamdulillah.
Afterwards, we just walked around and wash eyes. During we were walked, we meet Tanty, Azrin (her hubby), Salima and Muna. They also make a window shopping. Azrinor Yen just came back from KL because of some bussines. We’re are happy to meet them. Just spent a more hours together. Sister Layla bought a scarf for Salima. Ustazah Bidadarialso bought for Muna. The gifted for a sweet memories. Me? I buy nothing, indeed i almost buy imitation Hugo Boss which very similar to original one precisely. I just cancelled.

At the time we want to go back to Kubang Kerian, it is one problem existed. There is a seven of us. Is Gen-2 can support all of us? We had no choice. All of us put inside that car. What is amazing; we all can fit. Azrin drive, I seat beside him, and all the girls seat at the back. We a re compressed like can of Sardine. Ayam Sardine brand! However, Allah helped us so we can ride together without stop by police because of over passengers although Muna seat on Sister Layla legs more than 20 minutes. heheheee... so that day in history.

What a great memories. Like we knew each other for a long time ago. Alhamdulillahirobbil a’lameeen...

2010, in several days...

Or should i buy this new Mahindra Scorpio to celebrate the coming 2010. Black shiny car!


In several days, we will enter 2010. What we had done in 2009? Better or worst? Hopefully there is no bad things happened. Next year we will face new experiences and challenges, so let start to provide what is needed. Do much effort and never forget to pray and submission to ALLAHuta’alaa.



In Malaysia politics perspective, look like still hots and judder. But i do think Prime Minister can handle it with wisdom and patiently. What is more important peoples can live in peace without worry about losing work and source of bussines. Dato’ Seri Najib Tun Razak must remember that.



Because we afraid people will assume the slogan of 1 Malaysia : “Pencapaian diutamakan, Rakyat didahulukan” will become like “Pencapaian diabaikan, Rakyat dijahanamkan”. Probably lots of playfulness and synically from peoples is like what just happened to the previous slogan specifically “Islam Hadhari” during under Pak Lah. The nice slogan had changed to “Islam ada HAD, ada HARI”.



The Opposition Party will use all oportunites that come to them. Will Central Goverment give them a Big Weapon to become a great succesfull in the next election? Wait and see...

MY FIRST TRIP TO KELANTAN by Malay Cowboy - PART 2


The journey is continue.

Sound of Naza Ria engine is very smooth and clear even tough the car is running about 6 hours strongly. Never dissapointed. After several hours, we reach at Pahang and Kelantan border. When we start enter to Gua Musang i can saw a very beautiful Mountain which surrounded by mist. It just amazing nature view. Masha’allah! I quite impressed about Allah natural creatures. Beside on my left and right i merely saw a bush, green and harmony. My wacth is showing around 7am. Still early on my assumed. I go back to sleep again. I dare to did that because Faisal Wong now is already wake-up.

After a while when i had open my eyes, then we were at Kubang Kerian now. Thanks to Allah, after very tired of long distance; we at the end arrived to Kubang Kerian. I can saw a several a lot shop houses. Naza ria has been stop to the destination. Welcome to Kelate!

We mate the senior stuff who already had been there one week earlier. Discuss something most important. Took down all the boxes, computer stuff and others. Then everybody (all staff) been inside in Naza Ria again. We going to hotel to check in.
The hotel name is Avee Budget Hotel opposite of HUKM. Took down aour personal bags, then climb the stairs. We took 4 rooms. Quickly changes our sweat clothes and go to bathroom.



After half an hour we all together going outside to search a restaurants. Lunch time! Bro Bakar choose the Restaurants of Kopitiam type. What a goods he gave a treat too. Alhamdulillah...blurrpp...



Afterwhile we go back to bookshop and took a several pictures. We with the Franchise owner, Puan Rozita and her adopted daughter from Republic of China namely Salima. She is about 18 years old and waht is very amaze me; this girl can kecek Kelate very fluenty. Even at the first time i mate her. i didn’t noticed she is origin from The Communist Capitalist Republic State. Huh! The Communist Capitalist Republic Sate what is that precisely? hohohoooo... my new labelled for China.



To digress a little, my new edition of the title its because practically China is practiced Communist for politics dan Capitalist in their economy. Its irony for Karl Marx and Capitalist hardcore supporters like America. It’s happened to Vietnam too. After 25 years cruelty of war; most of Vietnam publics killed and all their city and village is bomb with Agent Orange by U.S. military; in nowdays the Vietcong Goverment start to follow the enemies ideology that they had agaisnt before. The destructioned had been done. Million peoples got killed just because of their stubborn leaders. What for?



Maybe i digrees too far. Let back to adventures...

MY FIRST TRIP TO KELANTAN by Malay Cowboy - PART 1



Last month I went to Kelantan. This was my first trip to the State who claimed as ‘Serambi Mekah’. I went there with two of my friends; Faisal & Brother Bakar. The journey was start about 3 am; by Naza Ria (what a superb car!). To be truth I was very excited despite knowing that it will be long distance of tired. I can’t imagine, the person who go there by bas; because several persons had told me that a bus merely stop is two times. One is for toilet and another one is for eat at Machang precisely. Only that! And the guy like me who always need go to toilet oftenly, that’s properbly not to applicable. Hopefully in the future there will be more break for a Bus to Kelantan.



From the start Bro’ Bakar was drove ‘steady and slowly’, and i do hope his will sustained the style of his driving. Then, not so long after we enter the highway (after Genting Sempah Highway, i think so...); His drove little by little become too fast. Even once, i thought that i just ride by the former of F1 racer but Bro Bakar look like his enjoy so much. The Naza Ria ABS forced to working non stop, and for me this car breaking system is quite successful! Otherwise i wish i will buy car like this one, even though the petrol is very heavy used. Hence, this thought merely a glimpse. I can’t afford the fuel consumption. Bro Bakar said that his want to sell this car soon, then i just asked how much? 20k can? Bro Bakar said i only had 4 tyres for that price i just offred to him. Hohohoooo... what a sarcastic! So Naza Ria only in my dream.

So what about Faisal Wong? Oh before to forget, his sat beside Bro Bakar; and me behind him. I usually like to seat at the back so that i can have much relaxing during the long journey. For the first Faisal just make the announcement that he propably dont ever want to sleep. "Bro i f do you want to sleep, you can sleep; because i dont want to..." Big talks hah!



Suddenly after a few of hours he sleep first. Snoaring too. So How about me? Actually, i can stand it at all. The problem is, every time my eyes want to shut down; the car is break surprises. After several emergency breaks, i make decision not to leave my life in Bro Bakar hand. Hahahaaa... So i stayed wake-up for make sure the F1 racer still under control. If all of us is going to become dreamer for a few second, i’m afraid of propably we will dream forever, like Bro Bakar had told me before. Na’uzubillah...



The tyres going ahead. Skies still dark. The double blower air condition very cold. Not many cars on the road, so The F1 driver can use high beam without bother anyone. Sometimes when there is a car from the opposite, Bro Bakar low the light. It likes the signal that any road users can understand properly without anyone should tell.

In my palm,there is New Straits Times that i bought in the afternoon. I didnt had much time to read it yet. Therefore, inside the car very dark and not even one single of streetlight i can’t found. What the...? Yes no streetlight so far as i concern. Off course this a very dangerous for the road users. I can’t tell you what this was happened precisely. But as long as i can remembered after the Raub town i only saw the car light from the opposite. No single light from my left or right. What a surprised...

Within i aware to myself not to sleep; at the end i slept too. But its more like ‘chicken sleeps’. Until then we arrived at the border between some place in Pahang and several kilometres to Gua Musang. Oh, before that was happened, the Subuh Prayer is already enter and because of that Faisal Wong take position as Bilal to shout the Azan inside the car (very sentimental memories) meanwhile The F1 Driver press the petrol pedal without compromised. The meter show about 140km/h at that time. Very fast...and surely i too furious. Sound like the Hollywood Big Movie...

Then, we parked the Naza Ria beside the small road which had a Surau Wakaf (Musollah). Took the ablution. Chill because of pure water. Perfom the Subuh Prayer, by ourself. What is pity about the Surau Wakaf is not anyone take care of it. So its looked very dirty, exspecially the Toilet part. Is this the Islam that we want to represent to non muslim? (exspecially in Malaysia context). Too sad. Where is the MP and the ADUN? This is the prove that they are seldom visit the place which they always scatter the lie of promises everytime general election come. I felt pity for the villagers.

After we perform the Prayer, now it’s the time to find any foods because we’re very starving. We already eat a few hours ago, but after the long distance, our brains need some nutriens to recovery. Fortunately there’s a Restaurant cross of the road. Precisely opposite the Surau Wakaf, hence we rush up to there. The Restaurant its looked like Malay East Coast type. I remembered the color is Yellow. Bro Bakar had choose the empty table at outside, so we can breathe in a fresh air. East Coast culutured air; what a nice day. There’s some packs on the table, which i guess wheter it’s a bihun goreng, mee kasar or nasi lemak. I just asked the waiter, what’s that? He said the brown packs is Nasi Berlauk, the white packs is content with Nasi Dagang, the old newspaper packs is Nasi Whatever (forgot the name) and etc. Woah! Its very nice dude, because we had many variety for our breakfast. At KL you dont have so many choices except Nasi Lemak and Roti Canai. Nowdays is lucky for Malaysian because there is already Reality TV Programme called 'The Biggest Looser Asia version. I thought that was cool to eat different foods. I choosed Nasi Berlauk. Faisal Wong had choose Nasi Whatever. The F1 Driver had choosed nothing, only hot black coffee. He’s looked totally exhausted.
