CNY visiting

There was nothing to do over the week end so I decided to take everyone to PJ to visit my brother-in-law and sister-in-law. The plan was also to visit a few friends including Benji and also window shopping at 1U if time permitted.

We started our journey early. Traffic was smooth and we arrived at Sungai Besi in 1.5 hours. Unfortunately, the traffic built up heavily before the Sg. Besi toll. We were stuck there for many minutes and I decided to turn back and to take another alternative judging the heavy traffic would be delaying our journey by at least an hour or more. I took the UPM-Puchong (LDP) way and again another traffic congestion at LDP’s Sunway toll. The traffic there was not as heavy as Sg. Besi but it delayed our journey quite a bit. A 2-hour journey became 4-hour journey!

While driving on the E way, I realized I did not have Benji’s numbers on another phone. I had no way to contact Benji until he contacted me. According to SIL, all shopping malls were heavily congested by cars and people. On our way to PJ, we saw heavy congestion at Sunway Pyramid. So we decided to hang around at BIL’s house.

We went to some bakery supplies shops to buy some ingredients for making bread. On the way, Benji called. Thanked God! We would meet after 8.

Finally, we met up at Benji’s around 8. We drove back to Malacca and arrived safely. We called it a day!

    [...] Do you still remember this rhyme? Well, a good remake to portray the Malaysia politics in the Indians community. On February 16, Indian women and children marched in KL city with roses in hands. They were going to send the roses to our prime minister but instead of meeting him, they met the FDU (Federal Reserved Unit) armed with shields and batons. Several women including an 11 year-old girl were arrested! This was the reason behind the massive traffic jam at Sg. Besi toll. [...]
