Bank Negara Malaysia Museum and Art Gallery : Not Just About History

Sometimes you want to go out but you are so bored with shopping malls and want to do something different.

Now here is the place that you should consider to visit if malls are not your outing spot for the weekend.


Check out Bank Negara Malaysia Museum and Art Gallery and I promise it is not a mundane place.


Plus point, it is FREE entrance! Can walk in, no longer compulsory to book prior to visit. Only for group booking of more than 20 pax are compulsory.

There are 6 galleries to observe and the venue is children friendly. They even have children’s gallery.


What you need to know:-

§  Though you can walk in, still need to register there.

§  Parking is RM5. You can still go there by LRT Bank Negara or KTM Bandaraya. Though the walk seems to be bit far in my opinion due to a bit hilly pave for 10-15mins walk.

§  A quick spot check on your bags/ hand carry.

§  You cannot bring bags in the venue. There are free lockers to put away the bags or just leave it in the car.

§  Probably spend there around 2 hours.


My personal favourite definitely I would call “money tunnel” and the art gallery.

So go ahead and enjoy the history and knowledge in a fun and comfy way!

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...

Casual Insights: ESG and Malaysia Business

 In today's business world, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) is not just a term; it's a game-changer. It's reshaping how companies do things, from how they run their day-to-day operations to the way they invest money and build connections in society. ESG considerations are no longer optional; they are integral to modern business practices. This shifts businesses towards a more mindful way of operating, investing, and being part of the community.   When we talk about the "E" in ESG, we're looking at how a company affects the environment.

This encompasses fostering diversity, ensuring fair labour practices, supporting community initiatives, and upholding human rights. The "S" reveals the social footprint or sheds light on the...

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...
