Bazar Ramadhan is the hawkers place opening everyday in Ramadhan... Bazar Ramadhan provides the food for fast break... In my hometown, there are a lot of Bazar Ramadhans at different place. This Ramadhan I'd challenge myself to go to a different Bazars every single day in Ramadhan... Eventhough not too success this mission due to some unavoided incidences or programs... There are the list of Bazar Ramadhan every single day...

11/8 1st Ramadhan   = Just at home (no Bazar for 1st Ramadhan)
12/8 2nd Ramadhan  = Taman Anika, Kampung Pandan (After my duty at school)
13/8 3rd Ramadhan  = Klebang Old Beach (I saw the European tourists also bought some food there)
14/8 4th Ramadhan = Muzaffar Park, Ayer Keroh (met with my best friend there)
15/8 5th Ramadhan = Pengkalan, Alor Gajah (not a real Bazar)
16/8 6th Ramadhan = US Pizza, Dataran Pahlawan MM (no bazar today =(  )
17/8 7th Ramadhan = Merlimau (flooded with people... The best place for hawkers)
18/8 8th Ramadhan = Jasin (The Bazar just transfered to other place due to the tornado)

Not too success I guest, but the challenge is continue.... Another spot of Bazar Ramadhan are: Taman Cempaka (the crowd there make me scare), Duyong, Sg. Udang, Alor Gajah, Masjid Tanah and other places.. I hope I'll success doing this. I'm not proud on myself on doing this...

Enhance yourself with Attitude!!!

Attitude?? Why this is important... When I thought about attitude, I'm always remember The Movie; The Karate Kid... huhu...

Why attitude become the hot topic in school, in public or in community... With the good attitude, we can enhance the relationship in the community and reduce crime... In Euro countries, they realized about attitude and modesty... Many of them have following attitude practice and EQ lesson, make the European have good attitude. Hence, the European country nowaday have lesser crime than other country in the world...

According to that statistic, Malaysian also must behave themself and avoid following the west culture, because the West country practising East culture in the modern days, make them modest than the East people...
What make me feel frustrated, the Malaysian nowadays like to create tense between racial and try to make chaotic between themself. They didn't want to tolerate with each other and always selfish.

As East Country, we are enriched with East Cuture, even the government also organise the "Budi Bahasa, Budaya Kita" campaign to educate a public about the importance of be modest and respecting each other. When all of the people in this country can respecting each other, I believe Malaysian become the Well-developed country with peacefull community that can work together to make this county stronger...

Hope, everybody can enhanced their attitude to be more tolerate, respectiveness, modesty and be grateful to become Malaysian....

Bazar Ramadhan Challenge – One Day, One Bazar Ramadhan

Malaysian synonym with Bazar Ramadhan during this fasting month… Every year, many spots used as Bazar Ramadhan, gave Malaysian an identity during this festive… Huhu, The Bazar Ramadhan is the hawkers spot to sell food and drink according to the dinner or “berbuka” time. The food that we can found at Bazar Ramadhan are Nasi Beriyani, Kebab, Murtabak, Deserts, dumplings and etc.

DSC01639There are many Bazar Ramadhan opened in Melaka. As a challenge to myself, I want to go and buy food at different Bazar Ramadhan everyday…

On yesterday, I went to Bazar Ramadhan Taman Anika, Lorong Pandan… Many stuff and food sold there.. So, I bought Soy bean juice, Khatira juice, Kuih-kuih and rojak.

Today, I went to Bazar Ramadhan Pantai Klebang (Dataran Satu Malaysia), which situated approx. 3 km from my school… When I arrived at that place, I saw European tourists were buying the food at that place. Not only Muslim people go and buy food from there, I saw my chinese students also at there to buy food… For the second day, I bought Dragon Fruit juice, Chicken Mamosa, Prata bread (roti bohtgom) and other kuih-kuih…

ON tomorrow, I don’t plan it yet, but I thought, I want to visit the Bazar Ramadhan at Alor Gajah province… Hoho, how bout yours??? Have you ever went to Bazar Ramadhan??
