River Of Life and other murals

During Chinese New Year, a friend and I pergi Masjid Jamek untuk tengok River of Life.

Kalau turun LRT dekat Pasar Seni, kene berjalan sikit ke depan. Kami pilih stop sini sebab nak breakfast di Café Beskal. Kawan kata port orang-orang naik basikal makan breakfast, jadi deco dia pun ada basikal lama.

Kami memang dedicate hari tu hari jalan-jalan KL. Kalau nak betul-betul turun kat area mural tu, boleh turun dekat  LRT Masjid Jamek. I tengok mural di Masjid Jamek yang famous tu cantik dan terjaga.






Kami jalan sampai ke Bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad. Masa tu dah tengah hari. Panas ya! Tapi dah alang-alang kami lawat jugalah. Bila lagi nak lawat, kan?

Tapi kami terlepas untuk lihat kolam ikan at one corner of the sidewalk, close to a bridge sebab kami tak nampak semasa berjalan ke arah Bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad.  

Boleh tengok waktu malam pula macam mana view River of Life nanti. Kalau tengok gambar lagi cantik sebab ada effect lampu dan mist tu lebih menarik.



Plan asal, kami nak berjalan sampai ke Jalan Alor tapi sebab panas sangat tengah hari tu, kawan yang park kereta dekat area Pasar Seni decided kami naik kereta je ke sana.

Mural di Jalan Alor tidaklah terjaga seperti di Masjid Jamek. Ada satu bahagian kena lalui kawasan lorong belakang, dan mural ada di seluruh dinding flat tersebut. Yang tak bestnya, ada sedikit bau tak enak la sebab kurang terjaga laluan lorong tu.




Di satu bagunan lain, warna mural mula pudar, tak sure sebab apa, mungkin kualiti paint yang digunakan atau ramai sangat pengguna jalan dekat situ jadi warna di atas jalan tu pun cepat pudar.

Ada one part pula, mungkin akan ada penambahbaikan. Sebab nampak macam ada a bit of construction dekat corner.

Kalau anda ada family anak kecil, I recommend pergi visit street arts dekat Masjid Jamek sahaja.

If you orang dewasa, tak kisah condition tak selesa around Jalan Alor, tapi nak pergi tengok mural di situ, then proceed lah. Some part ada juga mural yang cantik.

A friend told me later, she said street arts Jalan Panggung also worth a visit. Tengoklah, jika ada public holiday yang dah tak tahu nak buat apa lagi, boleh la visit nanti J

Decathlon giving back to community

 I recently attended a free Zumba class at the Decathlon PJ branch, which is part of their regular weekly activities that include Zumba, yoga, and more. These activities are often offered at a minimal fee, with occasional free classes for the community, perhaps once a month. The atmosphere was lively, with families playing ping pong and children riding small bikes within the venue, adding to the sense of community. This initiative by Decathlon is a fantastic example of how a business can give back to local residents while promoting a healthy and active lifestyle. I haven’t seen other sports retailers in Malaysia adopt a similar approach. While Decathlon remains a business, they’ve successfully integrated CSR activities by fostering a sports culture through the free or affordable use of their facilities, like badminton, basketball, and futsal courts in selected branches, including those in Selangor, Johor Bahru, and Penang. Classes like Zumba, Pound, and Yoga/Pilates are also availa...

Can Non-Office Workers Burn Out Too?

 When we hear the word burnout, most of us picture someone in a corporate job, stuck in traffic every morning, glued to a screen all day, drowning in emails, meetings and work desk from 9 to 5. Sounds familiar, right? But here’s the thing. Burnout doesn’t care whether you’re in a fancy office or out in the field. In fact, people who don’t work in traditional office settings often face a different kind of pressure such as physical strain, unpredictable hours, emotional labour, or unstable income, and that can burn you out just as fast, if not faster. So let’s talk about other fields of work burnout, the kind that hits NGO field workers, delivery riders, retail staff, event crews, and freelancers. Because their stories relatable too. 1. NGO Field Officer  Lina has been working with a local humanitarian NGO for the past three years. Her role mainly involves community outreach in rural and underserved areas, Orang Asli villages, flood-affected zones, and low-income flats around Kl...

Bundle culture in Malaysia

  Bundle culture revolves around buying second-hand clothes and items from thrift stores, often referred to as bundle shops or bundle stores. Popular examples are 2nd STREET and JBR Bundle, both offering a wide variety of second-hand items. Many Malaysians, especially students and young adults, opt for bundle clothing because it offers fashionable items at a much lower price. These shops often offer a mix of vintage styles, which reflect classic or retro designs, and modern fashion that showcases trendy and contemporary looks. This diversity also allows shoppers to discover unique pieces that are not typically found in regular retail stores, adding a personal touch to their individual style. Exploring bundle stores offers a sense of adventure, much like treasure hunting. Finding a rare or perfectly fitting item on the racks can be incredibly satisfying and makes the whole shopping trip even more exciting. Bundle shops are more than just stores as they become community hubs where pe...
