Malaysia Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment said Malaysian government had signed an
agreement with China Wildlife Conservation Association (CWCA). According to the
agreement, China will loan a pair of Chinese giant pandas to Malaysia for 10 years.
Although the mainstream media spoke highly of the pandas but it's totally a different story to Malaysians who are extremely dissatisfied with the ignorant Barisan Nasional government. Malaysia Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment had rolled out a nationwide contest to name the pandas. Some talented Malaysians suggested a few lovely names with alluding to corruption and sensitive political issues. These creative names are "Cincin and Beg-beg", "Bersih and Stop-Lynas", "Altantuya and Scorpene", "You help me and I help you" and "Corruption and Abuse of Power".
As China and Mongolia are closely related, one of the pandas named after a Mongolian girl Altantuya is the most appropriate. The other panda named as Scorpene is to associate the panda with the French Scorpene submarine purchased by Malaysian Armed Forces.

Korean kimchi dumpling is our lunch in Suwon, South Korea. The taste of the dumpling is different with the dumpling drop egg soup which we had savor in Seoul.
We were hunting for food in the rhythmic rain. Finally, we stopped at a small restaurant. The waiter greeted us with warm smiling when we entered the restaurant. My son ordered four dumplings, a big bowl of dumpling soup and three bowls of rice.
This is the real appearance of the kimchi dumpling. The outer coat is soft and the stuffing is dainty. The filling includes chili, meat, radish, scallion, egg yolk, bean curd, bean sprouts and Chinese cabbage.
Located at east coast of Pahang, Sungai Lembing is around 42 km away from Kuantan. Though Sungai Lembing is in remote area, it doesn't stop me from visiting this tiny rural town.
I have heard of the captivating landscape of Sungai Lembing for years. What a pity I had not been there when I was staying in Temerloh. Owing to the Pahang rare-earth issue, I decided to go to Sungai Lembing before it turning into a dump site.
Sungai Lembing was once abounded in tin ore. The tin mine was managed by the British Company, Pahang Consolidated Company Limited (PCCL). During the production peak period, the PCCL had the world's largest and deepest underground mine. The pit was closed in 1986 when world tin prices declined.
The above photo is the main street of Sungai Lembing. There are double storey old wooden houses on both sides of the road. A century-old tree is erected in the middle of the street. The elderly town folks will be seen chatting under the shade of the big tree in the evening.
In addition to savor the great-tasting food of Sungai Lembing, at the same time we also look around some fascinating attractions in Sungai Lembing.

It's spring in Suwon of South Korea in April. The spring rain was drizzling day and night. The chilly wind was blowing
ceaselessly. I misconceived that cold winter still hanging out around Suwon.
Situated at south of Seoul, Suwon is 44 km away from Seoul. There are few options of getting to Suwon. You can go to Suwon by bus, taxi or train. It takes about 50 minutes to travel from Seoul to Suwon.
UK Premier League player, Park Ji-Sung was born and grown up in Suwon. A city street was named after Park Ji-Sung in 2005. Suwon is also the production base, research and development center of South Korean gigantic electronics company, Samsung Electronics.
Suwon has a number of scenic spots and historical relics include Seoho, Paldalmun, Hwahongmun, Suwon Hyanggyo, Hwaseong Fortress, Suwon Folk Village, Hwaseong Haenggung and Suwon World Cup Stadium. Hwaseong Fortress is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
We stayed in Suwon for two nights. After that we moved to Seoul for viewing Cherry blossom in Yeouido Hangang Park.

After battling with
tear gas and water cannon during 709 Bersih 2.0 and 428 Bersih 3.0, Malaysia
Bersih committee member Wong Chin Huat is no longer afraid of tyranny.
Wong Chin Huat shared his desire of clean general election at a public forum in Malacca. It shows that Wong Chin Huat had figured out the direction towards democratic reform in Malaysia. The air in the sky of Malaysia will be free and clean.
More than two hundred thousand of all ethnic groups flock to the streets in Kuala Lumpur to express their dissatisfaction. It's a hard fact that Malaysians are not silent lambs any more. Under the attack of tear gas and water cannon, new Malaysia has been reborn that's Malaysia 2.0.
The power of the people is irresistible. If those in power insist to ignore public opinion, they will be vanished after the reform tsunami.
